Hi hi... Happy Yuan Xiao Jie! It's Chinese Valentine's Day... Can throw 2 mandarin oranges into the river or something. Dunno for what tho...

Anyway, berry_egg... feeling excited for you too! I'm sure it's gonna be a fun experience. For me, I didn't quite feel the fun experience of being a bride until I went for gown-fitting.

Haiz... Very sian today... So many late nights working until I've fallen sick. Taken MC but still have to work from home... It's been such a crap start to the year, at least work-wise...
 
hm.. ur furnitures worth it, ur mattress already taken up $2088 already

my FH wan a good mattress.. so we waiting for simmons to have sale since i flip flip when i sleep..

any recommendation where to get those solidwood resort-style furnitures for bedroom.. although Barangx2 have nice ones, but the price steep..
 
waxie> yeah.. hahhaa... so actually its the mattress that's taking up a big portion hor.. hehehe.. makes me feel better..
happy.gif


Simmons according to the salesperson whom we talked to.. is just more on the spring loh.paying for branding only... and from the forum on simmons thread.. no good reviews on their sales people... so gotta be careful.... Good mattress doesnt necessarily means good brand also.. as in.. those high end brands... we also asked about simmons and sealy... if u really have the money and all that then go ahead... else... there're plenty of reasonable brands... mattress has soooo much variety... from few hundred dollars to few thousand dollars... also mattress.. hahaha... those who buy cheap ones also been sleeping on it for years... sigh... headache hor? with so many brands ard also.. make us more headache.. keke...

How resort style u want? U got ur house liaoz?? customised it loh.. then u can have it any way u want it...
happy.gif


Not too sure where also... but my house is gonna be something resort style too... hehhe.. FH design one.. 3 room flat.. gonna become studio apartment.. hahaha... something like that la.. :P
 
Maybe I shd go buy 4D on my queue no (9685). Maybe can get a windfall and then buy pte property. hahaha...

Ok, nevermind about me.. I'm so disappointed until i'm behaving a bit "xiao xiao" liao.
 
meiling.. u ballot how many times liao?

housing market not favorable for young couples like us
new flats not good location and hard to get
resale flats COV super high
condo prices are sky high

so i'm staying with inlaws for the time being =(
 
we didnt managed to get our own flat yet.. will be moving with ILs first.. doing extreme makeover to the room..

we like resort style since we went krabi for holiday.. felt relax to live in such environment..
 
Hi gals, i havent thought of the songs i wanted for the wedding yet. Anyway i will post some of the songs you gals are looking for on my multiply.

bluebananas, pls approve my invitation on yr multiply
happy.gif


Mei, hugz hugz, hope you will get a better q no & maybe there will be better units the next time
happy.gif
 
Flora, that's really frustrating ain't it?
Furthermore the quota for chinese is quite small...
keeping my fingers crossed for the BE one.
sad.gif


Go and indulge and make yourself feel better. Do you have any backup plan? Think I better start on some back-up plan.
 
Bluebanana, i have send an invitation to add u to my contact in multiply, pls accept...

Koyoyo, really very easy to do ah?? frankly, i am not very good with IT thingy so very wori ley... even things that u say easi, i am also not sure if i can manage it... hahaha... talking abt this, i have a crazi idea ley.... was thinking, maybe we girls can all mit up with laptop, then u can give us a crash-course on montage making.... then let us buy u lunch/dinner/high-tea. what do u girls think of my idea??? then at the same time when we mit, we can share our song list... let me know what u girls tink of the idea ok...

Meiling, dun be sad... hugz yeah... i understand the demand in the market is really high now and not easy to get a flat even in the balloting exercise, nonetheless, keep your options open and join in every available exericse... good luck girl...

Melody, thanks alot... saw an alert in my email on ur new post...
 
Congrats to everyone here!

My wedding's 08 nov 08.. Need some help on MUA. can anyone suggest to me who i can try? or are anyone using Kenneth Lee, sam ong or Tg goh??

If so, wondering what their rates are?

Thanks!
 
Bluebanana.
To activate your PM u need to click on your profile that say accept private msg. anyway if u add meiling in multiply then u can add me thru there. I am koyoyo. ok
 
Annette.
Not me lah.. I just go update. haha.
But the list certainly is useful cos you will know which hotel and photographer to avoid if its on the same day.
 
PS is ok for me. Is it just brides or are we bringing the FHs?
happy.gif


So envious of you gals with the reno talk. I still looking for flat.
sad.gif
 
jeslyn,
thanks for ur consolation! hehehe...it's my 6th attempt n i still get a bad queue no. :P sigh...gave up liao...

cacky,
i even worse off than u...i got 8000+...wah, so terrible one, seems to get worse each time i try to ballot
sad.gif


sue,
thanks for ur encouragement, though it's not d 1st time i get a bad queue no but hor, cant help being disappted...have to wait another 4-6 mths for d nxt sector b n c bi-mthly selection
sad.gif


bluebananas,
yah i agree wif u...have been getting bad queue no in hdb selection n cant afford d upfront cash top-up most resale flats r asking for above valuation
sad.gif
but i cant stay wif in-laws due to d space contraint, my fh lives in a 3 rm flat n is sharing rm wif his younger bro...will have to move in wif me for d time being but i dun think it's advisable to stay at my pl for long :P

melody,
thanks! i oso hope dat i can have better luck nxt time round...if only can tay wif my mum until i get a flat w/o her nagging :P

tinkybell,
yah, dat's wat im doing, have been trying d sector b n c bi-mthly exercise...doubt d property mkt will improve in d near future...either i stuck TOTO tonite n can afford d resale or condo or else can continue to wait until my neck bcome long
sad.gif
 
jac,
at least u r below d 50% percentile, unlike u, my queue no is worse than u leh....i got 8000+...doca is ard my no. too
sad.gif
im so upset n disppted cos it's my 6th attempt liao...duno how many $10 hdb wana earn frm me
sad.gif

oh, i cant have d backup plan of getting resale flats cos of d skyhigh cash topup dat d sellers r asking...i think they might as well rob d bank, guz most prob have to try applying for d nxt round but i guz it'll still b as bad cos d demand is higher than supply
sad.gif


flora bliss,
sigh, think im gona get xiao xiao too...it's a gd idea...mayb i shd but mine too....but i cant remember d no. liao, it's 87xx...

ryu,
thanks for ur consolation! wish i'll have better luck d nxt time round :P

I met up with my new friend, aka the cupcake girl. These are the minis that she baked for me to try. Orange and lemon-flavoured. Everyone thought they tasted good! Now I gotta check with the restaurant whether they allow these cupcakes to be brought as display and wedding favours. I'd probably like to have 2 hearts on top than one. What do you all think?

bluebananas: Yeah, I agree with you leh. It's like there seems to be no way out for us but to stay with in-laws leh. Can't even rent HDB coz' rental is just way too high!

Meiling: Still cannot get appointment. I'm now waiting for the next results in April.
 
My sis and good fren clashed with our zodiac leh.
I know cant witnessed the moment when groom step in hse, step in room and step out house...

Aiyo... then tea ceremony hse cos my sis's zodiac clashes with us leh.
 
aiya...all buried under e snowballing of activities...how r u love xlb? U r a Mrs _______?
Tink most of us qite busy w our preparation...so busy n kan jiong n no time 2 chat on forum...lol

Going down 2 Sattine 2 select pre wedding fotoz...ani one oredi finish discussing e wedding card details?
 
i just checked my toto tickets.. no luck..
sad.gif


gals, tpy is really hot area.. got consider other areas? maybe the next bimonthly? my fren got a punggol unit in dec bimonthly.. cheap and good.. the flat layout very nice.. squarish rooms and bomb shelter is in kitchen

or how about buy a smaller older resale flat first? tell u hor, actually we didn't have to pay any COV for our resale.. it's a long story.. tell you gals next time
 
meiling, I did my food therapy juz now. Even ate chix curry, yu sheng and tangyuen.

Jac, I do hv a backup plan, though it's not very desirable. For the time being, I can stay at my bro's condo, since he only goes there on Fri and Sat nites. But the problem is his place is very far. There'll be a lot of travelling if I stay there.
 
Annette: You download the latest copy, then you edit, and you upload...So anyone who wants to update will just take the latest copy lor
happy.gif
 
yeah... it's really sucky for couples trying to get married these few years... think it's seriously going to screw up the national fertility rates... no flat>no home>no babies. i doubt they care about that... but who cares right? they just want more and more rich foreigners to move here with their $$$...yesyes it's impt for our small economy... it's to keep our nation competitive =\

Supply crunch in the housing market for the next 2-3 years will keep prices high... think it's better for us to wait for it to tide over... if not we'll be the next generation of people who bought at super high prices and be in negative equity in the future.

but of course thats only if there's a spare room somewhere to stay... just have to keep balloting anyhow and sooner or later they have to give it to you! don't give up ok! meiling> hope ur mom will stop nagging~ it's not as if u guys don't wanna move out also... but really no flats then how... move to punggol/sengkang next time also jialut... not much value and it's hard to sell...
 
Sorry ladies... I think I lost the website for the wedding music..... is no longer available.. hmmmm if I have website again I will post ya... pai sei....
 
Lost, Providencia, sorry for the late reply. I travel so much for work and it is almost impossible to plan for a wedding! Me and my fiancee are only in Singapore on weekends. Looks like we will likely go with Raffles Hotel as we are looking at only 10-15 tables. Wedding coordinator refused to budge on all things so cant negotiate at all =(
 
Shermie, with your schedule, it's really very tough to plan.No one to help you? It's quite expected that RH is a tough nut to crack, but you may try again for small things, i managed to get 5% more invitation cards, and waivage of corkage for first 4 bottles of wine from FSH, very miserable compared to the rest,but at least it's something
happy.gif
 
bluebananas,
i share d same sentiments wif u...sigh, but rite now...juz hope for d best, everything is inflated except for my pay...all d tok abt encouraging d younger generation to get married n set up families but no action taken...all d policies introduced doesnt seem to benefit us anyway
sad.gif

hope my mum will allow us to stay for these couple of yrs...until we saved enuff $ or get a flat, so things will b better nxt time but im not keen to have a bb w/o a proper home :P

uksportgal,
dun worry abt it....it's ok, thanks for ur kind intention!
happy.gif
i appreciate it
happy.gif
