Photobook - WIP

Have been doing this project since last week, am trying to finish it by 24th January, so i can get the buy 1 free 1 album. :P

I decided to take a break from it and blog cause my shoulder blades are killing me, must be the sitting position or the height of my table, or the way i click on the mice.

Anyhow, i hope my in laws will like it. It's for them, and hopefully it will be ready by CNY!

If we are gonna print all our wedding photos, it is gonna cost us more than RM1k!!!! it's 40cents per 4R. Anybody know where else i can print at a cheaper rate?

I hope to print it all before we celebrate our 1st year anniversary! HAHAHA! or at least before our 1st child! :P

The Soon's

WE ARE, Officially MR & MRS Soon!

The stress is off our shoulder, i'm finally eating like my usual self. Can you believe it, i LOST 4 kgs!!! (and i bet merv put on weight) My clothes are so loose now, even my red evening gown was quite loose (and i've altered it few days before the wedding) we have to say thank you to our friends and family.. YES, of course especially to those who have traveled across the world to be with us in Malaysia and in Chiangmai!

I think our wedding was very successful, (hehe) though we had a lil' hic cup, like our videographer was 1 hour and 45 minutes late. He was supposed to be at our house at 7am, but due to his malfunction of ALARM CLOCK, and if we didn't call at 8am. He probably missed our whole wedding. BUT because he was late, me and the girls managed to take some BEAUTIFUL photos with our BEAUTIFUL umbrellas. I must say, the umbrellas were a GREAT hit! Guest wanting to bring them home. Sorry, we only have 30 pieces, and even that, it was a 'SOLD OUT'.. by the end of the dinner, it was all taken!

My HAIR and FLOWER went hay wire, probably because i wasn't any ordinary bride, i was excited and FULL of energy! Either that, rose was super heavy, before the groom arrived, it fell off from my hair, *boo hoo* then before i arrived the groom's house, my veil and hair all fell apart. Thank god i told myself things like this would happen, no matter how organised us brides are, disasters are bound to happen depending big or small. SO i consider this a small issue lah. My girls were there to rescue, and thankful of PeiMing & Craven's Alphard, we had enough space for the girls to sit behind and help me with the hair, we had to say byebye to the heavy rose.. :(

I was too tired to eat anything for lunch, too tired to eat our yummy dinner.. stomach was empty to drink any of the wine. LUCKY i have Su Ann as my sister in law, who came into the room in the morning and gave me this AWFUL tasting chicken essence, that probably gave me the energy to not faint on our wedding day. (i had it when i was in Chiangmai too)

We felt so much love on the 24th October, our great wonderful friends, they made the wedding smooth and "colourful". A lot of fun and laughter all in one day. (i'll do my thanks of a separate blog) Our childhood montage is a present from Clement, Jon, Danny, Kevin and Alvin. Thanks guys! we love you so-so much, and everybody loves the video. Also thanks to David, from Munching Monsters!

am now looking forward to Edwin and Wendy's wedding, it's now our turn to enjoy the evening. *hehe*

16 more days

and i can feel pimples are popping out! stress dots invading my face!

i need to go to the florist, to settle my hair piece, flowers for corsages, thinking of getting centerpiece for the Table No 1. cause i saw the taitong's fake flowers looks so miserableeee... and *-ugly...

oh my seating arrangement is all settled!! i think we did pretty well. Hopefully we don't get any complains later on, but... ... will see how it goes. :P

We settled our photos with the bridal shop, so next week we get the photo album. YAY!! oh, and Cashyn from Wedding Couture is nice, she agreed to give me car ribbons for the heng dai! and some chinese stickers too! At first she didn't wanna give me, but i guess since we've created a 'special' bond, she agreed.

i'm brain dead right now. all i can think of is i have only 1 weekend left to the wedding, since this weekend i have my FRUIT CARVING course. *sighs*. 5 full days classes. i hope i graduate with flying colours that i can carve something nice for the centerpiece!

My ji Muis are the best! they are super brainstorming on how to torture the boys! and the boys are like waiting to take their revenge on 24th night. :)

and though we had our hen's trip. the girls are planning for a hen's night!! 14th Oct, we're going mambo jumbo. YAY! i think the night out its more for the girls to have fun.. and hoping to get me drunk. but i don't want to end up puking and getting dragged out from the club.. i wanna walk out stunning. and yet, they don't care. how evil.

*thinks that weddings are bad for health - it causes high blood pressure, hyper tension, shoulder aches, pimple outbreaks, insomnia, nightmares .. many more..

25 days to go

on saturday.. we went to the restaurant, paid the balance of deposit, finalised the menu, we wanted to change our soup, even if its 'hoi mei tong' sea smell soup.. hahaha.. it's some seafood soup (sea cucumber etc) or 'fat tiu chong' buddha jump over the wall soup.. we had to pay additional rm100 - 200 per table. and we thought okay, we opt for double boiled chicken herbal soup. we had to pay rm60 per table.. so.. yes, we're sticking to our shark fin soup without shark fin. -_-

then... we went to old klang road, the auspicious house at 3rd mile square to buy our bridal room accesories.. like the baby tubs etc, and the bedside lamps.. and mervin bought the dowry stuffs. traditional yet simplified. not cheap though, we spent about rm250 there.

last night, we drove pass a new china store, in taman mayang opposite KJ lrt station, its called Fun & Cheer, they have the red umbrellas for sale at a very reasonable price, below rm20. I think its rm14.80. They have a few pricing.. At living cabin, it's rm29.90.. or is it rm19.90. hmm.. but anyway, fun & cheer has really really cheap 'double happiness' logo stickers at rm0.80 only!! - rm2.80! really really cheap. they even have confetti for sale from rm4- rm9. wedding tea pots not very cheap, rm58.80.

we've been staying home cleaning and clearing a house that is filled with 25 year old hand me downs.

we're almost done, and mervin has done a really good job!

i heart u, fatty.
