My FH is definitely a mummy's boy. But luckily he also has his mind. Although he respects his mom's opinion, he also tries to think from his and my perspective before making decisions. I just have to get used to him checking with his family on most major decisions. But then, that's part of the reason why I liked him in the beginning - he takes care of his family which means there is a higher chance he will take care of my family too. There are no perfect guys. The aspects you like about the guy at the beginning might turn into what irritates you at times. But main thing is he is the one I chose so I cannot grumble.

qunqun... the term "control freak" was definitely not nice. That was very mean of your HB I feel.
My jie meis colour code is anything from yellow to light brown to matt gold. We decided on a colour that would fit easily for everyone.

Ohh, I learnt at jjsalsarengue too. But they have moved somewhere else. All the shops in Murray Terrace have closed. I heard from a friend that Jitterbugs is a better dance school though.
BTW, eClarity is having a sale. For those still looking for rings and stuff.

Hi CYC,
For my case, no pictures of my mani and pedi at all.
It's up to yr photographer style and you. For some, maybe they'll specifically requested the photographer to take some pictures since alr do up their nails. I been through, given a second chance, I wouldn't want to spend money on pedi for PS. I would rather use it on my AD then, where all eyes will be on you.

They were also selling gongfu panda, which we bought for our pastor, cos it looks like my pastor(yeah, we used my ribbons to make the white part of the collar too).

Mrs Chiew, where is the shop you brought your jewellery? Seems like you really got a good buy!
Anyone going shopping with your mother to buy clothes for them to wear on AD?

waxie24> did u opt for any cartoon with Focal? must pay additional $10 for each cartoon? how long they printed your cards. they told me they need 1 week to print my cards.
HiTech need 2 wks thou' and no extra charges for cartoon i heard.
I dunno how to write on my cards -
My card is a 2 fold, right flap open first then follow by left flap, so the middle page (centre page) print english words. in this case, my left page will be chinese wordings. cannot print on right page because its half a pc (half a pg) only. will it be weird to have left page in chinese and centre page in english?
like for those one fold card, when we open the left flap, do we see chinese words on the left page and english wordings on the right page?
my hubby quite lazy.. y all guys like this? eveyr time ask him how abt this, howabt that, he just watch tv nia! sianzz..
pls tell me / recommend abt those xibang cake shops, also the buffets.
i have a small family, so my side will only hv abt 20 headcount. some of the recommended buffet sounds like they need min 30 pax.. do u all hv this issue?

I've also selected my pics and can't wait to see the final album, which is due end June. I know it's early but at least I can something off my 'to-do' list.
Good luck to the rest of the Nov brides on your photoshoot! Weather's been great lately!

hey gals, how was the gathering?
rach, did u receive my sms mah? i sent u 2x, but u never reply back... dunno you got receive or not... i sms u saying i cant meet up cos i need to run some errands...
hmm, seems that most of our guys are filial and almost all of us having problems with PILs. haiz... sianz.
hopefully i can get a better queue number for the punggol sapphire BTO. if the queue number is still 1000++, den im so sianz... hate the HDB.
wah crown, if i have to chauffeur the PILs, i think i will faint and die liao. me and fh bot a car a few mths ago, and i make it very clear to my fh that his father cannot drive our car. and if possible, our car is meant for us, not meant for chauffeuring ppl around. PILs have a lorry themselves, so i dun see the reason why the MIL always want us to drive her around. esp only to nearby area for her to play mahjong. i may seem very hard to get along, but i jus dun like the idea of having them in our car. sux lor. another reason why i dislike gg out with them is cos somehow or rather, either MIL or whoever will end up taking a lift from us and i dun like the idea at all.
worse is, there were a few occasions (those family gatherings again), where we bo bian got to drive MIL to the gathering, den she wanted to sit in the front, being the reason she fat mah, so easier for her to sit in front. sian lor, i immediately show my black black face, den my fh tel his mum to sit behind lah, front seat is only meant for me. den his mum LL lor, sit behind. and den dunno is purposely or wat, talk so loudly, i nearly become deaf.
fortune, stay strong and cheerful, your mum is great, can tell that you and her very close. im sure everything will turn out to be just fine for u and ur mum.
fanny, my fh also very lazy one. ask him to call the hotel coordinator, enquire abt the printing of cards, he always says later lah, still got ample time, why i so kan cheong...
now worse, the UEFA starts liao, den he glued to the tv liao. ask him to do facial mask and eye mask, dun wan to do also, every night watch football til so late, stil dun wan to take care of the skin. haiz... guys... headache sia.

Yah, pin, city plaza has quite a few shops with white boots. Depends on what kind you like
but under $30 also have. The Charles and Keith boots are mostly brown and black leather. Far East will definitely have white boots- can be cheap too- stores like Mondo, Novo, having sale. So, you're going to wear white boots with short white WG, that's so fun!
Cynthia, wow, cannot beat JB prices of course You got 3 pairs for EG? Did you manage to wear them all?
Nec, about the shoes with smooth sole, I ask the salesgirl before. She said you are supposed to take them to the cobbler, or something like Mr Minit to put on the non-slip sole. Yah, but for winter, better don't get boots with stiletto heels.
Erlina, yah, the PS places quite far hor. I think I will ask the photographer to recommend lah based on the "feel" I want.

fanny, i also have the headcount issue here. i think the lunch buffet at my side is only abt 20ppl, definitely less than 30, which most caterers set as the minimum number of ppl. sianz leh, like dat, i also dunno how to arrange for catering liao.
i remb rach recomm a caterer before, but i lost the contact liao...
btw, did u gals take any photos during the gathering jus nw? how i wish i cld meet u all... but gotta do errands for my boss... sianz... even if i rush there, it will be quite late liao.

nec, same as me, HM will be postponed for abt 6 months, but i ok with it, gives me plenty of time to plan. Greece is such an exotic place for a conference, so irritating that our conferences are always held in Asia Pac.
MeiLing, u are like always so energetic
glad that the worst is over for you.
Shybride, welcome back, lovely dress, so looking forward to hearing all your experiences - wedding and honeymoon.

Hi earthsea, initially I also thought of lot of new venues for my outdoor shoot. But now I have decided to leave it to my PG to recommend based on the concept and theme we want... cos sometimes layman's view of the venues are good but PG might not be able to capture good angles.
Seems like City Plaza is a good place to shop wor..
