老公去 ICT-Outfield 3天2夜。全身的 jungle 味,连用 pungent 来形容都不够贴切。回到家时巳过午夜,我坚持老公要在吃晚餐前洗澡。不过,冲了凉后还是有森林的味道......第二天早上,大概是老公自己受不了那股味儿,自动自觉又去洗澡。
(冲凉后)
老公:我还有没有那个味道?
我: 哦,所以老公,我是不是很爱你?昨晚你那么臭我还让你跟我睡。
老公:老婆,我才真的很爱你。我这么累,平时应该连凉都不冲,我就睡了。

Book a VENUE: Copthorne Kings (thanks to L, it's within my budget) also to Jenny, fr Copthorne Kings, for being so nice!
Find a JP: Mr. Jack Soh (thanks to A) also to Mr. Jack Soh who readily accepted the change and still agreed to be our JP.
Groom's ATTIRE: already tailored. but think my 宝贝 has lost some weights and needs to alter. (which is good news?)
Bridal's GOWN & ACCESORIES: Blue Bay will be gng to try in Jun/Jul
Wedding RINGS: Bvlgari Rings (thanks to Kenny)
Prepare INVITATIONS: Thanks to Jenny as well, for giving me some samples.
Confirmation of GUEST LISTS: Headache.... yet to finalise

Nice date?
Many would think the same as me. So it would definitely be difficult to book a date at the registry office. Haven't thot of where to do it yet. Not gng to exaggerate the whole issue. Just a small place, with our love ones.

We finally got our own nest @ Bedok Reservoir View. Can you believe it? We din buy a condo (no $) but our living room & master bedroom has unblock reservoir view! We bought it on a 农历八月十五中秋节, it's really 良辰吉日.
It's really not so easy to have a place of your own in Singapore. There's so many things to look out for and a lot of admin costs. Haiz... How can public housing in Singapore be so expensive? I have look into my finances and how we could fund our lovely nest.

记得去年我和 KC 有这么一段 conversation……
我:在什么情况下会请客?
KC:开心的情况下。
我:为什么要请客?
KC:为了要庆祝快乐的事情。
我: 在请客后会想有什么回报?
KC: 没有要求,只要吃的人开心就好。
When we 请客,we can't expect to earn anything out of it. 说一句老实话,朋友不分贵贱,就算有人没包红包来,你要赶走那个人吗?说好是“请”,应该是不求回报的。I really want my love ones to be there with me to celebrate such a important day. And it's my dream to have my wedding dinner is a ballroom with high ceiling, so restaurant is OUT. But like I say, 我们不是有钱人的孩子。And I have so many friends tat I wan to include in my guest list. Budget for dinner will be even tighter. There must be some compromise somewhere. Think Lian can help me settle this...

Buffet in the afternoon. Using my contacts, I should be able to get some discount for the buffet.

Normally ppl will say “the first and most important step for the wedding preparation is choosing a wedding date.” I wouldn’t disagree. But since we (me and Mr. Wong) have the consensus that we are only gng to get married in another year’s time, we’re gng to take it slooowly. So, I think our most impt step would be BUDGETING instead. Both of us are not rich man’s kids, so we got to do things within our means.
1
Was chatting with a friend on msn 2 days ago. He got married in May and it should be honeymoon period for him. His HDB is not ready till another 6 mths, so the newlywed is staying with his parents. Not that his lovely wife doesn’t like his parents, 相见好,同住难. Sounds tough for him to be sandwiched between. This story is nothing new, many have heard of it already. I am rather determine not to fall into the “trap”.. Thus, looking for our love nest become the top priority. I wanted to stay near my parents so that we will be entitled to the grant, but looks like it’s not that easy to get one in bedok…. The HDB here are soooooo hot!
2
I so wanted to take our bridal shoots overseas and Taiwan came up to my mind. Royston has promised me (long ago) that he will bring me to Taiwan 1 day, cos the last time I was there was so many years ago. So, I thot we could use the opportunities to travel there for a short vacation as well as for photo shoots. I’m intending to check out on the packages.
PS: If it exceed too much of the budget, we would call this off and 乖乖 take the bridal shoots in Singapore
3
Too early for honeymoon planning. Before I have any withdrawal symptoms (like my god-bro), I thot it might be good to think of the destination first and we would work out on the budgeting. I suggested Maritius, Greece, Canada. His face shows that he’s not very interested in those places. His standard answer would be “wherever u want to go lor”. I decided that I should get Royston involved, cos obviously this is a HONEYMOON. I dun want a “you happy so I happy” trip. So I tried asking him if there’s any place that he really wants to go? He said “London”. Since I’ve asked for his opinion, I think the least I can do is to respect his choice. So London it will be.

1st attempt - Rejected
Place. Time. Eveything was wrong.
I am going to spare you the details.
2nd attempt
So he knows that I love fine dining. He said he has a voucher for his new credit card at this restaurant, Prive @ Keppel Bay. I even prepared camera to take the delicious dishes to be shared on the blog.



I was told that we could have champagne and desert outdoor, facing the sea. I thot that was COOL. After making our way to the outdoor seats, the champagne came,

and.... the roses came.


OMG. And he was kneeling there, waiting for me to say YES.
Honestly, I din want him to spend too much on the ring. But this ring from Tiffany & Co. is really what I dreamed of!
Score sheet for the nite
