Unforgettable Moments

Haven't been updating for quite a while, I hope you readers are not abandoning this blog anymore! Most of my time has been busy scouting ideas for THE WEDDING.
Just a quick recap of the last few months, always had something to do with rainy days. haha :p
  • Taiwan trip - 19th to 27th Oct with dear
It was a fruitful trip as we get to stay with the Taiwanese family in their minsu. We had fun despite the torrential rain on some days. I know Taiwan is the place I will love going to!
  • Oh!dear photoshoot on 7th Nov.
We postponed our shoot twice 'cuz of the rain. Luckily, sweet Melody was very accomodating and she made time for our shoot. Thanks!
  • Bridal photoshoot on 30th Nov (postponed).
We postponed our shoot as we are not mentally well-prepared. I can't explain exactly how the feeling is like but it seems we just don't know the concept we wanted in our shoot. :) Glad we postponed it to Jan as it was having a heavy downpour that day, OMG!
  • My 29th birthday celebrations.
Really elated to have friends and colleagues celebrating my birthday. Thank you Tyan mei who has been taking care of me like I'm her big sister, always extending her big help and gave me a good surprise. Wonderful! We had a cupcakes and balloon party at Des & Rain's house for our double celebration. It was a mini affair but enjoyed the kick of a good meal. It's also the first time Bunnie and Fel celebrated my birthday, nice knowing them. And to my BF who never fails to bring me to special places to take nice photos! haha. I always love a good meal at quirky cafes, sharing a drink and cake together with long chit-chat sessions. That's simple life pleasures.
  • Christmas and New Year's eve celebrations.
I bought more gifts than last year for my colleagues and friends 'cuz I made more friends! We had nice gift exchanges. Also met up with coco and Ah Xiong for gathering, an annual gathering lol. For the next Christmas, hope I can invite all my friends to my house and have a good time. The best gift of the year? KS bag!
  • Bridal photoshoot on 7th Jan 11
I went for fitting and trial make-up on 3rd Jan, brought a bridal magazine which Eileen gave me for the makeup artist to see so she will have a rough idea the style I like. On 7th Jan, dear and I got ready for our photoshoot. Pretty nervous initially but things started rolling well when the bridal crew chatted with us. Rain took leave to come and help us in the afternoon. Things were really turning out good. Weather was fine, it did not rain at all! We have a fun photoshoot as the photographer was a joker. I also brought my DIY cutouts to use for the shoot and it turned out very pretty! We couldn't keep smiling and frankly speaking, I enjoy photoshooting. lol. We treated Rain to dinner at Watami after that.
  • Bridal selects on 21st Jan 11
We had to choose from over 200 plus photos ,took us 5 hrs inclusive negotiating! Rain was with us during our selection. Most of the photos turned out well, didn't expect the photographer to do a good job. We have to eliminate a few good ones if not, we had to pay more. In the end, we topped up with $800 for extra photos. it was ouch! in the pocket but they were really nice taken. I just can't wait to show them off to my guests! =)
  • Wedding invite on 22nd Jan 11
Dear and I went to T Dragon to choose our wedding invite, but since we do not have the no of guests invited so we decided to submit our order after CNY.


Next up, Meetup with Bunnie on our church design and on 6th March will be the day we will see the layout of our album! :)
