Before I go into details of my pregnancy, I reckon I should start on my wedding 1st. Or many might just thought I had a shot-gun marriage (though it is totally normal and nope, I am not biased against any this marriage, at all).
Okay, so we went to take our wedding photos sometime in July? Ya, I think so. We went to J.B. to take their package as it was so much cheaper that way and frankly speaking, SG really is too small for any nice scenery for our photoshoot. For RM3,999, we had one big Framed photo of our choice (damn big, I cannot remember the dimensions but it is really very big), one pull-up banner with a photo of our choice (to put at the entrance of our dinner), one album, 2 small framed photos of our choice and all soft copies of chosen photos in DVD-R. We had 2 outdoor destinations and one indoor studio shoot with total of 7 gowns for the shoot, no time limitations, we went to Desaru and a torn-down mansion (for that fantasy feel) for the outdoor shoot. Also included in the package was the car deco, 1 actual day morning gown, and 2 evening gown. I personally thought that it was quite a bargain as I have heard from some of my friends that in SG, this kind of package can easily cost up to S$4,000.00, and without outdoor shoot.
Then, the time comes for choosing the photos. It was a tedious process as you definitely cannot decide which photos to give up. In the end, we did exceeded our initially agreed amount and have to add on another album (which means pay more lah). I really think that though it is the norm to over-choose the amount of photos, I do know that this is a trick for the studio to earn additional bucks too. They were asking for RM400 for the additional album, I refused and we bargained and after a few hours later, the price came down to RM150.
So, everything was settled and around 2 weeks before the wedding, we went back to the studio to try the gowns again (for the actual day), in case I do put on weight, lol, and make the final alterations. Then, 2 days before the big day, we drove our wedding car (my aunt's BMW) in to let them decorate.
The Big day came and went at the blink of an eye. Shall not go into details, will be posting some photos later on to let the pictures talk.
The wedding dinner though, is worth mentioning. We held our dinner at Holiday Inn Hotel (Orchard). We were actually contemplating bwtween Goodwood Park Hotel, Pan Pacific Hotel and Holiday Inn Hotel. We settled with Holiday Inn because they had a promotion (price was great), their centralized location and their menu was not bad too. We held 22 tables in total.

Resurrecting this dying BLOG =))
It's been like how many years since I am writing on this spidey-web covered blog.
So, when I came back from my Taiwan Trip in year 2011, I was busy preparing for my wedding, that was held in November the same year (2011). Busy, busy, and I neglected this blog.
Then, I was planning for a dragon baby (ha.. dragon as in the zodiac, not as in the size, wahaha), and mommy said, " aiyo, you think everybody can one-shot tio (get preggy) meh? If you really want a dragon, you need to plan now, and start trying NOW!".. Hahaha.. and so, I started trying for a baby in August the same year (yeah, everything comes together..). Then, in September, I missed my period, and got hubby pretty excited. He went to Guardian to buy a pregnancy test kit, he came back with 2 pcs. I was like: "Oh, why you buy 2?", and he went like: "The salesgirls say it's a promo, buy 1 get 1 free.." and hahaha, we tested that very afternoon, in Sim Lim Sqaure, level 3, ladies toilet.
It was POSITIVE. YAY~!
Hubby was damn excited and he picked up his hp and called father-in-law to tell him the good news, and at the background we can hear MIL laughing in excitement. Yup, it was a happy day for everyone. Since we have an additional kit, we decided not to waste it and tested once more the next morning, as the instructions says it is more accurate in the morning, and so you would have guessed it right, it was positive too.
Let's get to the next post before readers start to fall asleep =))
Warmest Regards,

Curve & Line Nail Palour @ Bencoolen
i had a package of gel nails with them. compared to ard 1 yr ago, the quality of their gel deteriorate alot. previously before this package, i did once and it was very good, last long, like abt 3 to 4 weeks. but this time round, it only last ard 2weeks plus and my pointing finger alr broke off during the 1st week!
their prices are also much costly compared to other nail bars in the same vincity.. and for cny, i know that these kinda service shops, like nail or hair salon usually will increase their rates when it's ard one week prior to the festival. but this shop has a "unique" kinda rates increment:
2weeks prior to cny eve: $10-$20 on top of the U.P.
1week prior to cny eve: $30-$40 on top of the U.P.
like daylight robbery rite? its like normally my gel session only cost $70+ (package) per session, den now it became wat, $110? more than 50% ex!(50% of the $70 is only $35) even costly than cab fare lo, cab only charge 50% on top of the fare during midnight rite?
and their service is also so-so only. they kinda choose customer, if ur spending quite a big sum or regularly spending there, they will serve u good, like chat with u, compliment u(which is damn fake). but if ur a walk-in or jus doing express/normal mani, the boss(grace) will assign her mother to attend to u. thou her mum also knoe how to do, but her taste is kinda diff to teens/adults rite? and she got some eyesight prob(as most elderly hav), resulting in smudging nail colours, and her mum is also very attitude 1 lor. saw her talking to a lady once, and say things lke "u must make appt, if next time nv make appt, we wun serve u lei"
they also very hard-sell, ask u buy nail care products saying, ur nail veru brittle, very dry, etc.
luckily, its my last session in the package, will not go there anymore!
my advice: dun go!

Bad online purchase=(
sian~ wanted a new GHD hair straightener so badly but jus dun hav that extra cash to buy a $169~$200+ from those online retailers.. so my cheapskate self got the better of me and i went to buy one which cost $120 from a not authorized retailer..
at 1st, it was so far so good, cos she even provided free delivery, and even when it was within 3 hrs from when i made my order.. so i thought, quite a deal rite? it was $139 but i asked for a discount so it became $120.. i wanted pure white but she said there's no more stock and there's only left black and pink.. so i chose a black instead..
den when she brought it to me, we were meeting at the void deck of my blk, and it was v dark la.. i trusted her to b honest as she promised the set to b brand new.. so i jus open up the box to check if everything was intact.. but when i rch hm and opened up, to my astonishment, it was an opened set and the styler's GHD logo is blurred and even hav scratches! i was quite angry and disappointed, darling was abit fed up cos he had told me not to buy in the 1st place, but i insisted..
so i immediately smsed that girl and told her my displeased, but she insisted that it was a brand new set.. i couldnt take this lying down so i threatened her that if she dun do an exchange for me, i wil go to the CASE and lodge a complaint.. she den agreed to change another set for me but there's only pink left and i hav to go to her place to exchange.. luckily im on off day for the next day..
and so, i exchanged a new pink GHD and am happy with it! i checked and checked and found it to b brand new this time~
i learnt a lesson, not to b too trustful towards strangers and always double check anything before receiving! omg, luckily i got a satisfied exchange=) look wat i did to my hair with my new straightener~
