11 days more...

I just had my Gou Da Li on sunday, Victor came with his auntie to give the gifts, si dian jin, and pin jin. My grandmum also came to help to make sure all the traditional gifts for us is in place. All my relatives came to my house for buffet lunch and took the cake with them. Although there are some minor hicups, the GDL went quite smooth. After that, I also went to JB to pray to Victor's ancestors and annonce our wedding to them. This is to show respect and get blessings from them. We also receive ang pow and blessing from his JB uncle. He and his family have always treat us very nice, really appreciate them.

Now left with 11 days.. We are both getting more and more stressed up with the preparations. Maybe due to the weather or the stress, the flu bug is with me right now. "ah chiu"... sneezing away.. While I was sleeping, I received a call from the Bridal Shop telling me that I got to change my appointment for the final fitting tomorrow. This week is a very busy week for me. Thursday meeting my Interior Designer to discuss on the design, friday I need to collect the funplates for my wedding. Saturday, meeting up with the florist and my bridesmaid for my hen's party. So I got no choice but bring the flu bug with me for the final fitting tonight. Hopefully, it will not spread to other people. Hm.. maybe i should wear the N95 mask with me. haha...

Well.. thanks to my dearest HTB (hubby to-be), he has been putting in alot of efforts in getting the things done, and making sure that I can relax and stay pretty for the big day. Pipi, really appreciate all your efforts.

My ang bao box and photo montage are done. The photo montage and ang bao box is very well done. Big thanks to Huimin and Weiyang. ;) You two really help me alot, thanks for all the hardwork and effort.

Honeymoon in Switzerland & Italy


We went to the Travel fair at Suntec last saturday, there were lots of people queueing to enquire/sign up for the tour packages. We went to ASA, CTC, Dynasty and SA booth. After going through the different schedule and pricing, we finally choose SA Tours. We heard from our friends that their are the better one for leading Europe tours, and the tour schedule can meet with our requirements. Although its the most expensive among all, we believe that it will be value for money. Hm.. Now looking forward to the trip and saving for Rolex watch from Switzerland, LV and Gucci bags from Milan. Keke.. It's unlikely that we will have enough for the Rolex before the trip unless fortune god is with us. Haha...

So one thing off the task list. Oh.. its actually two things off that list - honeymoon and wedding car. Haha... We are honour to have Grace's long time friend cum buddy's boyfriend to provide the car and act as "Ahmad". Special thanks to both of them Huimin and Weiyang. Although I don't have a Mercs, I still want to volunteer myself as the driver for your wedding next time round. haha... Or maybe both of you can pray for me that I strike 4D, Toto, or Big Sweep, so that I can afford a decent enough car to be the wedding car. Keke..

Live Interview with Radio 1003

We just came back from the live interview @ Radio 1003 for their new 爱情马拉松 programme. We talked about our dating experience, our wedding preparation and the Marriage Preparation Programme (MPP) we attended. This program is sponsored by MCYS, so naturally we talk more about the good things of getting married, and about the MPP course. We really think that the MPP course is a very interesting session and couples who plans to get married should attend to know more information about marriage life. To find out more on MPP, please go to http://www.family.gov.sg. We were quite nervous at the beginning, but the DJs are very professional and lead us into the conversation. Both Wen Hong and Li Mei are very friendly, they showed us their equipment in the studio, it looked very interesting to both of us. Here's the photo we took with them inside the studio.


It was an eye-opening experience for both of us. Their studio seems quite new and well equiped. After the interview, we realise that its not easy to be a DJ, you really need to be quick-witted and be able to handle the machine well to be a good one. Overall we enjoyed the interview and will definitely be interested to visit the studio again.


This two 2530 的幸福 CDs are the door gift we got from 1003
