wow.. meet up.. i also staying at north east line...

 

[sylmc]

dodolet - My emcee script is only in Chinese leh. English one was a very very simple one. I think I have it somewhere. Let me go and dig it out.

 

[strawbsc]

rach > prevention..keekee..I have been taking contraceptive pills..wahh...for at least 9 yrs..since my poly days.I have my own gyne dat has been with me for 10years.every yr I will go to her and consult her with my women's prob lor..keekee..She did tell me to stop if I wan to have kids and keep asking me whether I wan to have kids.I take con pills becoz' of my skin.at 1st it was to control my hormones level but I didn't have to courage to stop eating.I have been contemplating whether to stop,have discuss with my hb but so far,we dun wan any accidents.It is too scary leh lah..Like Viv says..not financially stable.

which resort did ur fren stayed in maldives ah??keekee..my hb int..

YL > yeapz..I oso can do surveys can email me oso..I aldy in union liao..

yah,so nice,do u noe why your fren stayed dun mind me asking?coz' we are doing "market survey" where to stay liao....when I saw the pics of maldives..I realised wasted.shod have gone maldives instead of bali...ok lah..I think I enjoyed my whole HM ..(^-^)

Viv > Yah..we plan to go conrad/hilton at maldives.Hopefully we can save enough to go there before it sinks~~wahhaahaa~~I think my hb is addicted to the pool and the water liao..keekee~


yah..financially still need to be abit more stable lah.But the earlier u have kids,the better it is lor.U can relax earlier (financially) then ur peers when ur kids are grown up.

My HB and I dun have any plans at all for bb.When kids grow up,and u want to do things u wanted to do~it will be tough lor..imagine in ur 50s and u wan to wear a bikini to enjoy the sun on the beach abit out of the way lor..so we rather enjoy now.keekee...different ways of mind set lor.


spoiltbabe > wah...missed the promo??!?wasted leh..When I saw the pics of maldives,I was like...ai yah..bali was nothing leh...
my hb and saw one of the resorts we liked.It will be almost the same cost as going to bvlgari resort we went.It became out GOAL in making more money...we are planning to go 1 yr from now lor.

 

[lilacbliss07]

Jo_vin... ya after an chuang cant slp on the bed and only u and hubby can enter the room.. hehe ya can slp on the floor..

aiya 1 mth diff also very fast one le.. keke... mine is end Mar to early apr ma.. keke...

the procedures i got post before ma.. 1st is have to put the ice on the area to numb it.. very torturing.. den after dat the doc will inject into the area multiple times.. so dat one is mind torturing.. den i dun dare to see jz close my eyes.. haha...

jolene hse ready only in 2012?? i wanted to take the punggol one initially.. but end up my amk appt come earlier so i took amk in the end.. keke...

btw i heard my fren say there's a condo in punggol built by HDB one.. only 200k+ for 4 room... u all heard of it??

 

[lsntyl]

clare>intro you le. anyone else interested?

btw, can intro your gynae? Now, I need to find one. Didn't have one previously.

happiness>will definitely give FR if I do go next week. But I haven't called to book yet.

 

[jolene428]

Jane: ARGHHHHHHHHH got such thing meh? If soooo cheap i wana take oso lor... I think not condo lehh.. if I am not wrong, maybe its a new DBSS project... privatised pricing like AMK tt one... Or maybe its a new EC? but tot no more EC liao?

yvonne: yeha lor... on paper said Aug 2012.. consider fast liao.. maybe by end 2011 can be ready ba ^^ Like tt hor, must give birth before mid 2011.. haha like rushing like tt! SO funni...

My development is Punggol Lodge... yvonne urs is the treetop is it???

wooo..so many E and NE ppl! Shiok!!!

i was worried i gg to be staying in some ulu area and away frm the humanity!!!

 

[jolene428]

jo_vin: my HB didnt slp on the bed after our An Chuang but his fren had to enter the room to help him with the burning of CDs and etc so no choice lahhh... haiyohh..if unavoidable oso bo bian...

yvonne: i like ur part on www.tikong.com leh! kakaka... my mother said hor, must pray to tikong in the morning and pray for no rain... coz there was heavy rain after 1pm (i reached rasa at 1pm) and she prayed to tikong and ask him to tou-long coz i having outdoor cocktail mah and somemore if rain v not convenient for guests who are taking the chartered bus and public transport to rasa... Then hor, at 5pm it stopped raining.

Tell u hor, its like miracle.. i started makeup at abt 4pm then i faced the hotel balcony mah.. so i can see the sky turn dark by 4.30pm and felt like crying manz... then suddenly 5pm... the dark clouds all blown away... wooo... so must believe ahh.. but if u not buddhist or taoist then pray to God lor ^^ Shld work the same

 

[jolene428]

[happinessbliss]

Strawclare< i think i also have the same problem as u. I use to use contraceptives to control my hormones too. But i uses patches instead as the oral contraceptives has some side effects for me... i uses th patch for abt 3 yrs... it is suppose to stop after 6 months but i decide to con't to use as birth control.. then when my AD draws near I had a discussion with hubby and decide to stop using it. So far I have stop using for 1 year liao... i stop after I ROM last yr...

YL < My gynae is in Ang mo kio... Don't know it its convenient for you anot?I have been with her since i was in my teens cos of my very irregular and painful mense... If u are interested I can give u the contact if not maybe the rest of the gals can help...

 

[vivaliciousviv]

<font color="ff0000">REC (spanish) does have english Subtitles. my man n i watched it last night n it was an interesting n really scares u off...Low budget but well made, in comparison to those Stupid Horror shows like Saw, ...tt only shw u gruesome murder, etc,intestines, etc...this movie is so much more in depth n the ending...is... =(</font>

 

[eunicet]

meimei: I'm from Trinity Christian Centre, but holding it at the church I grew up at, Calvary Baptist Church... =)

SotongLet: Mine is also about there, but hor, don't you think it's like super long?!?! I think I'm only going to have 2 worship songs...Will probably select myself...Yours is tall order lorr...All bao ga liao! =P Heh!!

 

[baobei123]

Jolene

yap I applied for treelodge.. punggol lodge quite near leh.. going to be close neighbour soon...

Hi Jio vin
ya lor.. better pray ba...

 

[esther_c]

hello mine is New creation.no church building yet.so my solemnising will be at the Lawn of my hotel.
pretty similar to sotonglet church programme.

has confirmed with us there will be 3 worship songs and 1 "special" during holy communion.

everything should end max length 45 min according to Pastor.can't take too long coz partly not all guests are christians.

Cheers

 

[stay]

hey ladies, any recommendation for makeup artist for mum and sisters?

 

[~sblbee~]

nelle,
u look so stunning n gorgeous in ur gowns....i nearly couldnt recognise u

do take care n keep in touch....we shd organise a gathering after all our dec brides' AD r over

 

[flora_bliss]

nelle> You look gorgeous in red!

meiling> I'll be on half day leave on every wed, thur and fri starting from next week onwards and then I'm officially off from 15 Dec. I can actually meet for tea, if anyone is keen.

 

[eunicet]

meimei: I also having guests who are not Christians...But the schedule that I have (which is also similar to both of yours) seems so long after I assign 5 or 10 min to each one! Then in the end, add up to an hour and a half lor!! Siao! Hahaha!!

 

[pinky81]

Wow.. you gals can already start to plan for a meeting up already. I think I will miss out a lot as my wedding is on next wed and followed by my honeymoon soon after that. oh dear!

I went for my fitting today. Glad that I can fit all the gown nicely! No need to tighten and no need to loosen it. I think I am the only bride out there who din get to diet.

Jolene, did you do live feed for your dinner at rasa sentosa? Did you engage any buses? Any idea how long do the buses wait at the waiting area?

 

[jo_vin]

Wah blanqq so nice of u! Offer room for mj. Haha.. Its ok, can come my house play also. Cos i am smoker, then not nice to go ur house ma. Hehe.. At least i can smoke in my house. Haha.. Next time then we arrange one. After my AD and after u all come back from honeymoon!

Jolene, i think u should be able to go la. Only short of 2 person should be quite easy to hit the target. Dont think too much first ba.

Jane, wah! Inject multiple times. Really sound quite scary. R u sure got condo in punggol coming up? But cant be only 200k la. 200k is damn cheap for condo leh. Where she heard the news from? If really have i also want leh..

Hey rommie, congrats!! Enjoy ur honeymoon and we see u soon!!

Pinky81, mine is one day after urs!! On thurs! Haha.. Excited alrdy now right? How are all ur preps? More or less done? I am alrdy starting to feel anxious liao. Last night kept thinking abt it and abit lose slp. Wonder how to sleep on the night before. Haha..

Time pass very fast. We are just left with a few Nov/Dec brides.

 

[sylmc]

Ivy - follow up with your BS closely. Dun lose faith, you MUST think positively!

I've used Rasel for my sis's buffet lunch in Jul this year and all guest rave about the great food! Their lunch menu ranges from $12 - $15. You can go online to check their menu. http://www.rasel.com.sg/ If you are keen, I can hook you up with the contact person. Quote my name and you can enjoy perks

hi gals,
if u all need any resources, juz let us know cos im sure we'll b glad to share our stuff wif u gals

 

[dodolet]

Jol, I also booked rasel for my church recept!!!! just that we haven get down to settling what is in the menu and the cost... Can tell me what are your perks so I can haggle with ms E.

Ivy, which bs or photographer u have taken ur pic from? For family buffet, can try neo gardens.

Eunice, I am stretching it abit longer for sanity sake, but Most of the stuff shold be less den 5min except for opening worship, exhortation, the i do part and solemnisation.. My 3-4 songs are for the whole event. May be 2 open 1 close or 3 open 1 close. prayers, benediction and scripture reading can just put 1min inuff. Candle lighting and communion together should be like 5mins max also bah.

Few things we got from friends and some are advise from moi pastor.
1)Choose a short, easy to understand scripture passage (he choose soo.. ^^)
2)If the memory is bad, just repeat after the pastor or have the vows written somewhere visable to us and just read from there.
3)Choose easy to follow songs (that i have to agree.. Some of the songs my friends had chosen, as a worship team member i find it challenging liao)
4)write all the thank you scripts or whatever we need to say out before the wedding starts.
5)hands off and let the ic take care of everything and just enjoy the day.

 

[kayjay]

hi~ will like to share my diy corsages with u all~ I need some comments, find them abit too small~ I thought of doing with pearls or beads instead. The pic abit low resolution.
