[lightz]

Hi MoMoCharz,
Lightz old liao have poor memory. Mrs Lightz have better memory.

Hi sailormoon,
Yesterday, internet disrupted due to taiwan earthquake. Err... Marriage life har?? More or less the same except left hand a bit heavier. And can do something legally, like calling each other "Lao Gong" & "Lao Po"!!
Glad to know that everybody had their house nicely done up.

Hi Winnie,
How's your wall?? All clean up already?? If clean until cannot clean liao, then use white paint to paint over it lor. Or get something to cover it.


A few more days to HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

 

[winnie24]

Hi all! :>

Happy New Yr! hehe.

lightz: my wall all cleaned :> white and nice now.

but now i got another prob - anyone knows if spraying insecticide on walls will leave a stain? cos for my bedrms, we got our ID to help us seal up those walls where there's a recess. but think the wood is attracting/producing some bugs

small small ones tat stayed on the walls. mi wan to get rid of them!

btw, my and HB decided on our AD - 26th Nov 2007 :>

Morning ladies and Happy New year!

Piang, I buey tahan... I want to be in time for CNY celebration in our new house too!!

Winnie, we found a chipped tile in the kitchen so requested to change. But.. after changing we saw the surrounding 3 also chipped!!! $^!@%$&%
So wait for these 3 to be rectified. Hopefully by this week can consider complete!
Hey hey, our AD very close! Mine is on 21 Nov. hehe...

Sailormoon, nothing new inside, they still got to do the tiles so no point go and clean up loh. We did go up on sat night, jus a while only with his parents so didn't msg you. No form of entertainment, no cold drinks, no food, no staying overnight.. haiz... maybe can take turns to go to yours, winnie's and diaodu's house hor~!

When is our BBQ ahhhhh?? Now Jan no more rain le.. hehe...

 

[sailormoonwt]

AH!!! u r back talkactive in tis thread agn~~ *hiak hiak hiak*

but hv u decided on the auspicious shift-in date le mah?
wow! yr AD is 21st nov ah? hotel chose le mah?
winnie leh? yr hotel for holding yr wedding is where?

hehe.... SK was asking WHEN is our BBQ... but i tot tis mth, mayb our dear Diaodu no time cos she is getting married in 3 weeks time leh!!! unless Diaodu can make it any of the wkends wor...

 

[momocharz]

hahahaha... miss me ah!?

HE was also always asking, tot you all having BBQ? tot you all said Nov? tot you all got house-visiting? *sweat*

Auspicious shift-in date.. aemm.. haven't meet the shifu yet, hotel we booked Swissotel MC le.

What do i need to prepare for the shift-in ah? HELP! haha.. i mean besides the food and necessities, those little little things like containers? utensils? and BEE TANG!

 

[sailormoonwt]

precisely! SK was oso asking when is the housevisit tour for the goodview folks ... tink we all r eager to see each other place after been toking so long abt our reno!

wah! swissotel MC .. very expensive leh. i tink for wkends the min table is 42 or 40 leh... i love their ballroom...grand high ceiling but hv to give up cos its too costly le .. so how many tables u r hving?

eh .... like i say the other time...those small tings (necessities stuffs...or even instant noodles or dry food) u wan to shift in together with u or before tat oso can...but must be NEW stuffs... then on tat day itslf...more imptly is to hv BEE TANG (can buy frm Beauty World) .. cook tang yuan ... boil water ... and to cross charcoal at the main door ... tats consider alot of tings to prepare liao!

 

[momocharz]

we took the weekday one so price still ok compared to the rest, I wanted Intercon, but the price for this year really really cannot make it.

Weekday min is 35, so for the promo we got 35+1 free. Was worried weekday not so many ppl attending coz we based on the number our parents gave roughly.. but hack lah, book liao.

Like that a lot of things to buy leh... hmm.. think i better get the small small items as we see them le, I kept saying later then buy later then get.. now i forget where to get what le!

 

[sailormoonwt]

yrs is a wkday mah? dun worry... tink pple will be there to share yr happiness and witness the beautiful momocharz de~

so u confirmed yr BS liao??

well...for me rite... wat i did was my mum bgt the essential stuffs like "cooking oil, sugar, salt, VINEGAR (which i dun EVEN use them!!) , chilli, ketchup..) she says all these must be there for new house... aiyah, give in to her lah.. anywhere these r still sitting on the racks nw, untouched! hahaha!

i oso got a few auspicious stuffs after hearing advice frm my colleague..

1) Dao-Gua (two pcs - uncooked)
2) Shuan (neh...those CNY we eat one...to symbolise got $$ to count count count) - 12 nos
3) Garlic ( Two huge ones)
4) Cong
5) Carrot

all these must be tie with red string ... then put on red plastic plates.....

then of cos the burning charcoal .... to be placed at the main door ... then mocharchar cross follow by momocharz ... liao bu liao???

but of cos u better check with yr shi-fu on his advice...different people hv different versions...but they are meant well for the house lah!

 

[momocharz]

Wah! and i tot jus a few things can liao!

Then both of you 大包å°åŒ… into the house! Hmm we better consult the master fast liao then can get it over and done with!

BS we booked My Bridal Room, hope it's not a wrong choice!

What did you do during the weekends? we practically nua at his place, wanted to go shopping leh~ sales everywhere! at least managed to get something from GG<5, 弥补 my "emptiness"... whahaha...

 

[momocharz]

woo~~~

haha.. I 榜上有å leh! Hit an archive today.. kekeke...

sorry i very bo liao..

 

[diaodu]

Hello Mei Nu Mens,

Happy New Year to all!

I am finally back!!! I really MISS this thread a great deal. I was actually away from work for 2 weeks and have no internet access at home temporarily. I think my house is mostly completed with almost everything in place liao..haha..


Yes, Sailormoon, I enjoyed the waving session during Christmas and New Year Eve. I had been inviting tons of friends over during these past weeks. I think my friends enjoyed the shouting too...hahaha.... New year eve, Warren's soccer mates came over and we had 20 over guests... we played a lot of games and those "boyz" brought PS-2 over.

Actually I am dying to see your house. I saw your light. It is so beautiful, i bet your house must be real and contemp.

Haha.. I saw Mr and Mrs lightz yesterday. They indeed looked like happily married...

Winnie, I love mahjong.. great! now I know can visit your place for mahjong but Momocharz don' have to worry cos though I know the skills for more than 5 years but I still lose all the time. I am planning to buy mahjong table..haha.. Also, I bought the pole already and have been washing clothes actively..

Today, I will start my official cooking. Will fry mee-goreng and chicken wings...Yeah! So happy..

Instead of BBQ, why not we organize pot luck? Better right.. nowadays i kinda of enjoy pot luck party better. My wedding is coming up in 17 days time. And after that, I am going to to Taiwan for 11 days. Will be back around 1st week Feb. By then, CNY would have arrived by then in 2 weeks time... If we don't get to have gathering now, probably must wait till March..hee..

 

[sailormoonwt]

MOMOCHARZ!!! relac lah!!! i noe u hit an archive today leh.... dun so excited leh!

toking abt shopping...tink i hv to tighten my belts nw liao......momocharz, rem u shared with me abt yr reno bills &amp; is still on the uphill of hitting mayb $36K? last nite, SK &amp; I calculated and still hv some stuffs hvnt pay... tink we both suffered the same fate as u all...

sigh~~~ nw i kinda of worried. ......

so i dun tink i can shop much oso cos wedding coming in 5 mths time....every damn thing needs $$ ah......

Diaodu: FINALLY u r here!!! yes~ we all missed the chatty Diaodu here....

oh my god!! looks like u literally invite all yr frens ovr ah.... hehehe... bet must be busy running to &amp; fro kitchen refilling drinks &amp; making ice ah! yah!! u guys were as noisy as we guys oso... tink the whole block only yr house &amp; our house still WIDE awake!!!!!

ah! u like my house ah!!! i tink we hv over-spent by abit loh ... the light tat u saw was one of stuffs that was ex but we had no other lights to replace the centre pc at the living rm &amp; we went to every single shop at balestier Rd (both side of the road) to find a replacement but couldnt find...so ultimately we still get tat one... its kinda of love at first sight... nw i everytime will tok to my centre pc whenever we drop by our place... hahaha... xiao char boh me!

mmm.... i tink we should hv both. cos its alwys our promise to hv GoodView BBQ remember?? so we must make it happen mah!!!

 

[momocharz]

aiyah, first time mah...surprised to see my name there! hahaha.. suar gu hor~

sorry hor, my reno + furnishing + electrical already hit 43k and i think will still + + + de...

There are many things which we could have saved but sometimes add a bit here can get something better, add a bit there can get something nicer. Well, the bits here and there add up to quite a significant amt! We also overspent on our lightings, but i also love at first sight for my dining lights! Surprisingly friends prefer my toilet light (a last min purchase) compared to my crystals lights..

Me and Diaodu will like your house coz it's the theme we wanted initially mah. I haven't buy any new work clothes since CNY last year leh.. Couldn't resist this time round, bought 2 pcs nia and at 50% discount hor! Dream also see the words SALES SALES SALES everywhere!

Diaodu, you very hardworking! Invite so many ppl! The "before and after" cleaning work is enough to kill man!

The BBQ hor is é¢å­é—®é¢˜, we say for so long liao if dun have SOME ppl will laugh at us de, correct mah sailormoon!? As for potluck, I very good at washing dishes!

 

[sailormoonwt]

ah ! $43K ... *sweat drop down frm forehead* wah...then u still can remain so calm &amp; steady-headed here ah ... u noe ah ... yesterday SK &amp; I press the calculator.. was staring so long at the figures (tink we kinda of hit $35K nw) ... duno if still hv any other more costs or not .. we both oredi so stress up ... tinking of later on got wedding costs and honeymoon costs...reali hv to eat cow grass liao!

wah!!! u hv CRYSTAL lights ah?!?!? is it swarovski crystals? *wink wink*
nw i m dying to see yr lightings liao! u noe wat? we went to look around for our centre piece and the guy who sells us our LV RM lights says tat Lights r the souls of the whole house! nw i tink yr house hv lotsa of souls!

oh yes!! the before and after cleaning works reali kills man! cos we hv glass for dining table &amp; Coffee table...everytime i hv to use one wet cloth follow by one dry cloth to wipe immediately... wah piang ooi~~ reali tiring... BUT ... i nvr regret when these pple reali warm up the house with their laughter &amp; company!

Momocharz... u mean WHO? i dun understn leh..

anyway.... i tink we should hv both. Potluck is to be conducted when we do housevisiting.. then the BBQ i felt we should organise to reward ourselves for ALL tat we hv went thru in getting a flat at GOodview Gardens... doesnt matter if it was to be held in early march ... SO long we do it!

hao bu hao?

*btw... suar gu is sailormoon hor ... cos i duno how to insert chinese text ... *blushed*

 

[momocharz]

We budgeted around 40k based on friends' inputs, but theirs are 4rm and they got a lot of "free gifts" from parents, like tv, fridge and WM. We paid for everything loh and i'm at fault lah, this also want, that also want... haha.. he's more chin chye but i'm more particular in certain things.

They are swarovski crystals but i heard got different grades from different places issit? Dunno leh, this itself is a killer le, very ex for a dining lights. Better dun say, mention le wait heart pain again.

You also very 勇敢.. keke.. suddenly i feel that i have a lot of glass in the house, dining area, kitchen area all can find glass!

I mean the 男人 loh, who else will!? We keep postponing now if cancelled they sure got things to say de!

As for the chinese characters, hehe.. i type out in NJ Stars then cut and paste de...

 

[sailormoonwt]

momocharz... there r alot of missing wordings in yr posting above...can fill up the gaps...else i cant figure out wat u wan to say......

 

[momocharz]

huh? which sentence? i fill in for you. In between which word?

 

[winnie24]

wahhhh... suddenly so many postings today. hehe.

[sailormoonwt]

Ohaiyo Goodview folks!

momocharz:these r the missing words...


You also very 勇敢.. keke.. suddenly i feel that i have a lot of glass in the house, dining area, kitchen area all can find glass!

I mean the 男人 loh, who else will!? We keep postponing now if cancelled they sure got things to say de!


Winnie: wah! wedding at Sheraton... we had our D&amp;D there once &amp; i attended my colleague's wedding there oso.. lovely ballroom &amp; generous portion of food leh!!!! quite ex i heard...

Lightz Da ge..... one more to add... for those who are ALREADY married....... time for baby plans!

 

[winnie24]

Anyone of u have the spreadsheet of HDB WIS release dates?

If have, can send to mi? :>

 

[momocharz]

haha, sailormoon i think we impressed them with our postings yesterday!

I was quite impressed too! whahaha.... all long long msgs de wor~ you managed to figure out the missing words?

Winnie, Sheraton is ex leh!!! I saluate you two! But i like the service, so far one of the best I've encountered! tht time i had this dilemma, to choose a hotel i like or to choose one which is not too pricey and we dun have to cover too much of the cost. In the end, money is still a major consideration since we agreed on portioning a larger part on the house.

He dun really like to "shop" around for BS loh, it's like another round of "battle" after our ID search. So quick quick settle, get this load off the mind.

Everything do on your own very siong one, but that's what jie meis are for! keke.. I dun have the energy for such things, or rather i'm lazy!!

Lights you went for honeymoon le mah?

 

[lightz]

ohh.. ya.. Those who are already married... Time to make babies...

MoMoCharz, ya... went for a short trip to Phuket, then to my in-law's house in m'sia.

 

[diaodu]

Hello everybody,

Good afternoon. Seems like our thread quite active these days..heee...

Momocharz, I tot you said our theme quite alike.. maybe the colors bah.. cos my house no glass.. hardly got glass.. actually i love glass but no leh, no glass. keke..

I agree.. getting married is very very ex.. we spent altogether S$52K on house alone.. aih.. very broke. Luckily got a bit help from parents for wedding dinner if not..aih.. *shake head*

Winnie, where u bought yr mahjong table huh? i want to buy also..keeke.. my colleagues coming next Fri. wow.. i look forward to inviting you guys to my place..hoho.. btw, I remember how you look like still and yr unit no... Smiling face at HDB queue.. We chatted in toilet..remember?

Hey, I just updated HDB spreadsheet yesterdasy for my brother. The next WIS should be North area.. :0

<center><table border=1><tr><td>

HDB rev.xls (21.0 k)</td></tr></table></center>

 

[sailormoonwt]

momocharz... i didnt manage to figure out the missing words ... fill them in .. i read them until i see stars liao *faintz~~~~

Diaodu ... wow! u spent all in all $52K ah ... u must had did alot of carpentary works ah? tink all of us nw super broke .... all hv to eat cow grass liao ....

well... how about we start it off with potluck and housevisiting first? mayb after Diaodu is back frm honeymoon? early feb? we can hv it on a friday nite if we wan...

 

[momocharz]

Active good good, hee... at least coming to work not so boring!

yah, i think maybe it's the colour and dining table that makes it seems quite alike. Mine is not really zen coz i got glass, not contemporary coz the colour not quite there.. aiyah, rojak to me.

Btw, i have a new mahjong table leh, we ask for it FOC when we buy furniture..
so if you need, can borrow first since we won't be using it temp.

Sailormoon, I wrote:

You also very "yong gan".. keke.. suddenly i feel that i have a lot of glass in the house, dining area, kitchen area all can find glass!

I mean the "nan ren" loh, who else will!? We keep postponing now if cancelled they sure got things to say de!

Can get the picture le mah?

Lightz, since you already went for HM, can start making babies loh~! We have Mr &amp; Mrs Lightz in their Lighthouse, and baby Lighting? Lighter? on the way!

 

[momocharz]

Any lobangs for the storage racks in HS?

 

[sailormoonwt]

u need time chart, go buy herworld brides or styleweddings...they usually provide tat inside the mag tat u can cut out to keep track....

*someone gan cheong liao ah...*

... mmm we r oso looking for storage racks... those tat we saw at Ikea like not very good quality leh...

 

[momocharz]

every isssue also have one ah? or only particular issue?

 

[sailormoonwt]

every issue should hv...

 

[momocharz]

keke.. why today posting so short one?

 

[diaodu]

Momocharz,

I have it. Apparently, they quite popular. all my friends, colleagues used them. Give you tomorrow. Don't have it now. Costs one hundred plus. Very nice. You can come my house to see.

Btw, can i borrow yr mahjong table? my friends coming tomorrow to play and i have not had a chance to buy.. pai seh..haah

Can you SMS me at 9871 8715? I have no internet access tonight. Then i can tell u rack no.

 

[sailormoonwt]

ah? the time chart cost hundred plus? Diaodu , wat kind of time chart is tat? not those found inside those bridal magz one meh?

 

[diaodu]

Darling, u a bit blur blur one.. hahaa

The storage rack in the Household shelter costs one hudnred plus not the time chart.. sweetie sailormoon.

 

[sailormoonwt]

OH MY GOD !!!!!
*can someone pls kill tis sotong queen?!?!!??!!?*

 

[momocharz]

whahaha... sailormoon, if we kill you, SK will kill us!

Diaodu, I msg you.

 

[lightz]

storage mahjong table rack with time chart??

Sorry. busy.

 

[winnie24]

think the storage racks fr Home Fix not too bad rite? or can buy fr those wu jing shops?

Diaodu: if u need to buy mj table, think can get fr the shops opposite the bt gombak mrt. i've seen ppl lugging the tables back home. hehe. ours is bought fr CCK and we get the shop to deliver to our house.

Sheraton cost 800+ but cos it's 12 pax per table, so after dividing, each pax bout 75. so we think still can.

momocharz: wat ur package with MC include? wat kind of perks u asked for?

so we going to do our housevisiting in Feb?

 

[momocharz]

Good morning gals!

Lightz!!! aiyoh, you more blur than our cute sotong! I asked for the time chart for preparation for wedding coz i'm left with 10 mths only!
Also asked if anyone had lobang for the storage rack to put in HS.
Diaodu asked to borrow the mahjong table lah...
Whahaha...

Winnie, you can try the contact that diaodu has for the storage racks, not bad, quite nice and cheap!
We signed up during their last roadshow, we didn't ask for anything more leh, coz basically we had a list of our needs and it's already given. Oh, we changed a night stay in their luxurious bridal suite to 2 nights in their normal bridal suite.
Sheraton weekday also so cheap? That time my bro's friend weekend around 1k++ excluding wine, so we didn't even consider.

Sailormoon, what you cook yesterday!? How? How? How?? hee...

Diaodu, later I post the add for you. And your house is very nice and cosy!

 

[sailormoonwt]

Ohaiyo ladies!

so sorry that i couldnt drop by Diaodu house to join momocharz in checking out Diaodu racks... tried our 1st time cooking at our new kitchen last nite... aiyo~~ spend 2 hrs preparing the dinner , 45 mins enjoying the food .. then another 2 hrs washing up the dishes, cleaning up the kitchen &amp; mopping the kitchen... *faintz*

BUT..... it was worth while despite the massive cleaning up as we did some frying of tempura prawns..

Winnie: oh..Sheraton is 12 pax per table ah.. i see ... so yr package comes with 2 nights stay as well? hv u confirmed yr BS?

Yes, the cleaning up is reallly very Xiong... I am still deciding if i should cook during weekday.. I tried it last week and by the time we finished everything, it's already 9. Then no time to do other house work. hmm.. I think reserve cooking session for weekends... haha..
