SO tired!

we're so exhausted from today, our appointment at wedding couture's studio was at 7am. But we woke up at 620am! LATE LATE LATE. friends who knows us, that's not something new. hehe. we arrived at 730am, i didn't really time the make up artist, but approximately 8ish, we were in the studio snapping our first wedding photos.


i was probably one of the make up artist's (jaslynn) easiest or fussiest customer. depending how she sees it. I told her, i like it to be simple, no big head pieces, natural lips but dramatic eyes, no tiara, no pink or red eye shadows. HAHAHA!

My first look, she gave me a tiara, but when she put it on, i did feel like a princess, she told me it's a simple tiara, not so kua cheong, and it's more like a hair band. So okay lah! i agreed. *giggles*

And when i went up to the studio, i told the photographer (ah D), we want, natural, happy, romantic, and some black and white photos. :P He said, all he will do is, teach us how to pose.. and it's all up to us, to smile naturally, and look happy.. I think we did well, they said we look as if we're doing darlie ads!

Anyway, this is supposed to be a short blog. Cause am so tired...

We came back home at 8pm. :) i took some photos, but.. next blog lah.. i'll post up..

i promise lahh.

i've chosen my gowns!!

You wanna see my gowns?? ^_^

Wasn't easy picking out ONE favourite gown.. and it's not even selecting for the actual day wedding gown yet, only for the photoshoot, which is next Tuesday!! 5 more days to go!!!

I've trim n dyed my hair to natural color. :)

I've went for my facial, one week before the wedding photo shoot. Advise given from the beautician at slimming sanctuary.

I'm going to do my pedi and manicure this Sunday or Monday.. Gonna just do french manicure. Simple and nice.

We have our shoes.

Mervin has his black slacks. Not sure about his white shirt though! Apparently white shirt is also provided by the bridal shop..


OKAY, no more boring stuffs, and just photos of me and the gowns! :)

(oh this round, i tied up my hair, and put some make up, some advise i read from a wedding magz)


this is merv's favourite, we call it the metalic gown. that makes my boob looks like a size C! I asked Cashyn, the oh-so nice sales assistant of mine, whether i can alter the boobies part, but of cos not, BUT, with today's technology, we can PHOTOSHOP the boobs to be SMALLER! how funny right, people want big boobs and going for boob jobs, i'm photoshopping mine to be smaller!





this is one of my favourite, simple and oh so simple..and .. oh so pretty..
it's my mommy's favourite too... if i can't find anything nice by august, i'll probably pick this for my actual day gown.




beginning of the year, i tried some wedding gowns, and picked this for my actual day wedding gown. i really like the empire waist cut, and the flowy effect.. however its too long for me. and i cant wear super high platforms, i'll be looking like a giant next to mervin! anyway, its a rented gown right, so many brides have worn this, and one person made some not too obvious tiny holes, so it's now an 'outdoor' wedding gown. So i'm gonna wear this for my beach photoshoot.





i showed my dad all the dresses, and he was like, ah ok, and ah this ok, and ok ok, everything ok.. then when i showed him this, aiyah, this like kampung (village) girl only.. :P but i still chose this lah.. me staying true to my roots, kampung girl all the way! yayyy!






i think me and my mom have same taste. we both like this dress very much! :)

Pm said, all my dresses have same cutting, same kind, same same same. hahaha! i didn't notice it before, but nevermind lah.... if not these choices, it would be ah lian kinda dress. me no like leh.


Oh that's all! the other selection is chinese costume, so it's either a QUAH, or a Cheongsam. No need to select or alter. Pick it on tuesday, and probably they just put some pins behind if its too loose.


Oh, and they can photoshop my uneven tanned skin too! :)

Happy 7th year Anniversary!

OMG! has it been 7 years already??

apparently i thought merv forgot about today, because he agreed to swap shifts with his colleague for an afternoon shift!

and i honestly just remembered about today, yesterday. :P Didn't have time to get him anything but a card! at least it's not a FREE E-card. hahaha..

So when i gave him his card this morning, he said mine is at home!!!!!!!! YAY! i have a gift waiting for me at home. I wonder what is it... i hope its not just a card. *giggles*

Great day to remember today, because I'm gonna pick out my wedding gowns. it's the best way to remember our 7th year anniversary... the process of us getting married.



Dear Fatty,

You managed to curi the Jagung.


Love, Jagung.

photos from belgium

PHoto BLOg Time! it's 0045 in London now. So sleepy! So no words.. or at least minimum words .. :)

as promised, the matching glasses of belgium!


Lipton Glass with Lipton Tea
(though she had leong cha in her lipton glass)



For some reason, fanta taste nicer in this part of the world



i quite like drinking in the cold cold weather, but only sissy drinks for me please


SO, they have glasses for each beer you order too.

For coke too, yeap, and for coke light too.

And my last night there, i had evian, and yes, evian glasses came with it!

But no photos of thoseeee.. :(





yknow, one bottle can pour exactly one full glass..
Belgium must be obsessed with matching glasses
and they managed to make me one of them!


when we drank our mineral water in Brugge, we thought, oh.. plain glasses!!


until we finished our water, we saw this below! (its the brand of the water)


(strange..... water is clear, no? why did we had to finish our water b4 we realised this?)

5 more days!!

Back from Belgium, yknow what, i had only one chocolate when i was there!! smelling all the chocs was enough to make me full!!

I was really fascinated, and this may changed me into collecting glasses in the future.. about, matching glasses with the drinks you order!! I have no photos to show at the moment. (lazy to download my pics)

We ordered 3 different drinks each of us right, and i had a fanta orange glass, with a fanta orange bottle, and wk had ... i forgot what he had.. but it was matching lah, and sa had lipton tea in a lipton glass!

even when i ordered water, it was evian in an evian glass! honestly, i was sooo tempted to bring them all home!!

they even have matching beer glasses to go with your different brand you order!

another thing i've learnt about belgium is, french fries is originated from belgium. as what i've heard.. people queue up to eat fries! with mayo on top.

my trip to belgium, was... interesting.. people are... somewhat friendly KUA. and.. my most yummiest food i had was...


*drum roll*...



vietnamese noodles!!!!!



with vietnamese chilli sauce!! :P



YUUUUMMmmy!!



am totally asian.
