Gng BKK!!! =)

Finally, finally the long long wait is over, we ARE gng to BKK tonite!!!

I'm getting excited.. =) first trip overseas as hubby's wife n first trip to BKK n also first tm take aeroplane leh.. so mountain turtle..

More or less finished packing, the rest of the things need me to bathe finish then can put inside suitcase... I still need to prepare dinner for us both before we can clean n close up the hse.. getting excited leh.. kekekekekeke

But the damper is that since I just recovered fm pox, so alot of things cannot eat lor... sian.. Looking forward to feasting 1.. but now cannot... so can only go n shop n rest n relax..

Now thinking if we brought enough baht to go there, if not enough then hee.. we brought along cards too.. can sign lor.. but spend so much... =( come back c the bill v sad. hahahaha best is can swipe n swipe n no need pay the bills!

Stupid!!!!

Went to RCIA... and no doupts my friends meant well, they all insists that I am not fully recovered yet. Like that how am I gng to go BKK on Sunday??

Also, the agency told us, our tickets are still not ready for collection as yet! So slow... but then again... coz I have not fully recovered, if the agency did not manage to give us the tickets, thenmayb we don't have to waste the $700++ that we paid??

My hope is like this.... not to waste the $$ that we paid... not a lot but still....

N tat silly father of mine, want to draw out the CPF $$ n go china wif the big woman's children!!! Of all ppl, go with them to China to "work"?? After the lesson, real live experience of 7th aunt, he not clever enough to c thru them??

Gosh!!! I'm so angry & worried right now!!!

It's Friday!!!

Yipee.. today is Friday... =( but the last day of my MC liao leh... sian..

I have decided that later, i will go to J8 to change the baht currency and then buy somethings that we need for the trip and then go for mass and then for RCIA.

Finally, finally I can step out of my blessed hse.. hai.. waited so long! But kind of sian now coz last day of MC, won't have this kind of chance where I can laze at home for 2 whole weeks to enjoy.

Come Sunday, we are gng to BKK for honeymoon, but this 1 also sian.. coz go there, so many things I cannot eat!! Argggg!!! Then the week after that, come back got to go back office to slog.. hai... so sian.. the thought of it bores me liao.

Tonite, there seems to be some meeting that we need to meet up with the groups for our fun fair during CKT Feast Day on 20 Nov... So before I even slog at work, work for church 1st... but this 1 is not really work... this 1 is fun.. hahahahaha

Feeling good!!!

Woah.... I called the doc earlier today.. and good news!! She told me as long as my pox all dried up then I am considered as recovered fm the blessed pox!!! Yipee.... All my pox dried up.. but the scabs still there.. not all drop.. sian... But well, better than nothing lor..

Went to PIL's plc for dinner, been a long time since we went there for dinner. The feeling to be able to eat a decent meal feels so good!!! But the feeling to be able to step out of the hse to go out is the best!!!

In the afternoon, I went back to my parent's plc to pick up something n then showed them the AD photos.. Mum din say much just look and told me to develope some shots.. Then I just sat in the kitchen n talked to her while she prepares dinner. I realise, it's been a long time since I last did that. Kind of miss her.. hahahahaha.. But the thing is during n before the wedding, I certainly did not miss her at all!!

Dinner at in law's plc is good.. had fish n veg.. I've been dying for GREEN veg... n good! MIL cooked it... i really enjoyed dinner... must be coz i've been deprived for so long! While we were eating dinner, they were looking thru the photos... After dinner, I sat down wif them and we were looking thru it while they told me which pc they want.

I really enjoy talking to them... either I am hungry for human conservations or I am too bored or I really just enjoy it... hahahahaha...

Hm... In a way, PIL are quite warm ppl.. I used to find FIL v luo suo.. but after wedding... mayb now coz i'm 50% family.. so I no choice.. got to treat them better? All these while, I do like talking to FIL just that he likes to talk while there are interesting programmes on TV. hahaha.. I feel the family warmth when I go there.. in fact more than my own family..

I only pray and hope that this kind fo relationship will not change! And if there are changes, change for the better!!! =)

How then considered as RECOVERED?!!!

Arggg....

I'm getting so confused!! One tells me that I have recovered, another tells me not! So have I recovered from the blessed chicken POX???!!!

I'm not just getting bored being cooped up at home, I am also worried about my BKK trip this Sunday!!!! If haven't recovered how am I gng to go there?!!!

Further more, I also need to go n get things for the trip. Argggggg!!!!!!!

Was supposed to go to PIL's plc for dinner tonite.. then my mother says I have not recovered, I am NOT supposed to go anywhere!!! How???

I need to be fully, yes, FULLY recovered by Sun so I can take the plane to go BKK!!!!!!!!!

Sian!!!

Wondering what to do for dinner tonite... I seem to have finished all the simple dishes things that I know how to make or rather whipped up.

Left with some pork & fish in the fridge... had fish yesterday and don't feel like having it again..

Don't know what to make, now then I realised planning what to make for dinner is so headache!! hai...

Last nite, had a small tiff wif hubby... not the 1st neither will it be the last lor... the tiff last nite was abt him refusing to go n get things for the hse... hai... I wanted him to get bread, milk n sme other things for me coz me still down with pox din want to go out though I desprately want to go n get some air.... in the end coz he refuse to go... i went lor...

The moment my mother saw me in the bakery shop.. she was stunned coz she said i haven't receover cannot go out.. but hai.. it's so boring being locked up at home with only the TV, radio, books n PC for company leh..

Later at nite, as we settled to go to bed, hubby told me, he wanted to go n get the things but I was faster so he din go.. n he said he wanted to go with me since I had expressed interest in gng out since Sun but at the last moment I always change my mind, he was upset so he just decided to stay at home till after 10 to go n get the stuff..

All in all... everything is ok now.. but I got to admit i was still abit pissed at him this morning, so i din really put in heart n soul n effort in getting him to wake up nor bf this morning... an eye for an eye mar.. but I know this is not the way lar.. after all, it is such a small problem.. wrong, not a problem, but "Issue".

So must make up to him tonite lor.. go n make sme nice dinner for him.. hahahahaha

Monday Nite

So fast, is the end of today liao...

Just now cooked dinner.. I think quite successful leh.. hubby came hm just before 7 pm and I have all the things ready. He came to the kitchen and he commented, wah, smells v nice. I so happy to hear it!!

But the most impt is for him to try lar.. he tried and he say nice. Good good!! I'm feeling so happy, accompolished and proud of myself! Hahahahaa.. looks like the items that we bought are not wasted after all.

I was abit concerned that the pots, the oven toaster that we bought will be white elephants.. But all came to good use during this period coz i'm hse bound. At least the toaster is not just for me to toast bread.. hahahaha

I can actually use it to bake!! So happy...

These few days really gave me encouragment and motivation to make mre nice things for hubby to eat... coz he say my things can pass... makes me feel mre and mre to want to cook for him.. gosh... am I begining to be a "huang nian po"?? Or is this a normal for a woman to want to cook for her man? Hm...

Monday...

It's Monday today.. though I am still on MC and will continue to be till this Friday... I'm begining to feel sian le.. not coz I am stuck at home.. But coz when I think that my MC is coming to and end and I have to go back to work... hai... sian liao lor..

I think I am too lazy for words!! R&R at home for so long, and this Sunday gng for honeymoon. Which means I won't even go back to office for another 2 weeks and here I am worrying about gng back to work?! I got to be out of my mind!!

I can't believe this, I am 'resting' at home and I can still suffer from Monday Blues.. Gosh!!!

Hubby started work at his new co today but today is still training at Boon Lay.. darn far... I wonder how's his training coming.. will ask him tonite when we hv our dinner together =)

I think the most productive thing I ever do for the whole MC period is to prepare his breakfast & his dinner... I think for a short time, still quite ok and enjoyable to a certain extent. If I got to do this for life, stay home the whole day and do nothing, I will be bored to death! But of course if I am tai tai, can enjoy life, then staying at home also not a bad idea lor.. Now is, I am hse bound, no $ so definately NOT a tai tai so life not enjoyable.. hahahahaha..

hai.. almost time for me to go n prepare his dinner le.. got to marrinate the meat n prepare the things 1st..

Good dinner!!

Wah!!! I think I am not such a hopless cook after all.. hahahahahahaha.. Though I cannot cook a fanastic meal, but hubby say nice... so happy leh.. hahahaha

Coz hubby bought the wrong kind of pasta sauce back, I was so worried that I can't make a decent meal out of it... but whew.... luckily hubby say nice!

These last few days that I MC at home, I have cooked more times than I can ever imagine in my entire life! I can now made porridge, steam fish, boil carrot with potatoe soup, pasta, cook rice etc... all these sounds v simple, I know. In fact, it IS simple. But to me, I think it is an improvment coz from nothing of cooking, I can at least feed hubby with a full meal.. so I am quite proud of myself lor.. =P

Tomorrow, I'm gonna make baked chicken and potatoe salad for dinner for us both. Not sure if it's gonna be enough... but I think I may make 1 more dish. A small piece of chicken and potatoe salad for us both don't seem enough for us both =S

Today, our AD photographer gave us back our photos together with the album and the CD's with all our photos.. some of the photos quite swt and do capture "the" moment i feel. =)
Here's sme photos for viewing pleasure... these are some of my favourite. =)

sad sad sad

Hai.. the big black scar that I have been trying so hard to not touch and to let it come off by itself, peeled off while I was changing my clothes!!!

Argg... it hurts when the mark came off... I dare not touch all those marks on my face coz I've already peeled it a couple of times coz I din know it was pox. I really thought it was pimple so I went to squeeze n peel.. Now.. the whole thing came off!!! It still hurts... =(

Hubby has gone to get sme ingredients for dinner... We'll be making pasta. We wanted to go out and get it together.. But just as I was getting ready to take my bath, I tored the thing. Now no mood to go n get anything, coz I din want any1 to c my big scar... n I'm also afraid of gng out n the dust settle on the open wound and make it worse..

Hai.. just as we agree that today we will go out... this thing happen... Maybe, it is just as well coz I wont be able to go out and infect others then.. hai... =(

Yummy yummy!!!

Wah... after so long, finally can eat CHICKEN!!! hahahahaha.. actually the doc did tell me can eat chicken lar, but my mum say CANNOT eat.. n when she does marketing for me, she din buy chicken so cannot eat lor.. hai.. just as well lar..

My mother today so swt.. she stir fry chicken with giner in wine, fry sme veg & made my fav soup - Corn soup then call us and ask hubby to walk over to bring the dishes over for our meals. So all I need to do is just cook rice and we can have our meals. She gave us enough for lunch and dinner!! At first, she say enough for us for our dinner tonite.. But when I look at it, i think enough for us both for lunch and maybe dinner. Then hubby says he want to go back hm for dinner coz have not been hm to c c PIL.. So just nice, we ate lunch together and I saved sme of the food for dinner. Just nice =)

Now, I'm alone at home again.. not complaing coz I hv the PC all to myself and no 1 to disturb me.. hahahahahaha.. It's good that hubby goes hm to hv dinner and spend sme time with PIL... coz this yr, his bday, we din go back... BIL sms him n ask y no go back.. quite ashamed also.. hee..

Actually, I quite enjoy gng to PIL's hse for dinner, for 1 thing, I no need cook, another thing, I don't need to wash up. Lastly, FIL will have lots of things to chat with me =) He called me yesterday afternoon to ask me how I am also, this FIL of mine is I must say sweet!

Went thru the net to try to find something which is easy for me to manage and to feed hubby come tml or Monday... feeding him is not tough.. coz he is not that fussy a eater.. But to provide him with variety (this is me, not him) is proving rather hard.. coz I can only manage that few things... hai.. must buck up more to make him some nice food. =)

I'm begining to understand what Godma meant when U c ur family eating & enjoying the food that is prepared for them... though I can't really say hubby "enjoying" the food... but at least I am trying.. n hopefully, I should be able to provide him with better tasting food in future lor... hahahahahaha =P

scars!!!

Since yesterday my pox seems to be drying up and some of the scars have already fallen off.

I have taken on this unfortunate habbit of peeling off the dark n hard marks left behind by the poxes. I still quite vain so I did not touch those that's on my body nor on my face. It's those on my scalp that I am peeling off.

I cannot stand it esp when i run my fingers thru my hair, I find all those dried up things on my head... i've started to peel it off.. there are sme which are big n painful but I still peel.. itchy fingers tat's y!! I just hope, i do not make the situation worse by making it get infectious... The vain me told myself tat I must stop.. but the scars are making me irriated n itchy as well... argg...

Hubby told me those that are easy to come off probably wont leave much scarring but those big, black ones, he told me to leave it alone coz it may bleed... But my itchy hands... I think I hv just peel off ALL!!! I know i'm gng to hv an ugly scalp after this but I still cannot help myself from peeling... =(

This evening, out of a sudden, hubby called to say that he will come home for dinner. This gave me a shock coz I was not prepared to cook dinner for him. Thinking that he will go to the coffee shop near CTK to hv his dinner.. Hai.. so out of the blue, I got to cook him something.. Thank God, last nite, Trina thought me a simple dish. Toufu with minced meat. So I got hubby to go n buy toufu, soya sauce, seasme oil and I made him that for dinner. I also tried my hands at steaming fish today.. Not tat bad. I think can pass, but must remember not to steam it for so long the next time. The meat abit hard... Luckily, still hv soup from the last few days.. so heat up the soup, made the toufu minced meat and fried an egg for hubby... Fish is for myself lar coz I got to avoid so many things.. But I did share with hubby lor..

Hubby says ok, can pass.. so not tat bad after all lar.. I thought I will be hopless with cooking, but seems like I can make simple dishes after all... hahahahaha

Next time, I will try to make the mushroom, fishball with chicken soup for him.. as for dishes wise, I will go n find out some more simple, no frills, no fancy dish for him. =)

Sounds like cooking not tat hard after all, coz now, we only use steaming... coz if use fry or anything else, too much oil... lazy to clean mar... must go n learn to do sme more variety. Hubby says now he eat dinner... reason for not finishing the food is not coz not nice, is coz too much.. hahahahahaha.. of course lor.. coz now all the dishes he got to finish by himself, I cannot eat mar... but once I have recover fm this pox, we will be sharing the portion then it will be better lar, he will not have to finish all by himself. =)

Now, what worries me most is the scarring n worse... if hubby catches the pox from me means we cannot go honeymoon already!!! =(

Alone @ home..

Hubby gone off to work the usual time today.. but till now he is not back yet coz after work he went to his new office for orientation.

I think it is good that the new co has orientation at least this will let the new staff feel mre comfortable in the new environment. Last night, he told me, should not be more than 30 mins for the orientation, I told him it will take at least an hour and he don't believe me.. =P In actual fact, it took an hour and a half to complete the orientation! hahahahahaaha

Think he should be on his way home now also think he's on his way to get us some food for tomorrow and the new few days, the dry food all eaten up need to replenish.

Sometimes I wonder if hubby ever feels tat it is better for him to go hm n eat dinner coz of the food tat I "create" really don't seem very appealing... hahahahaha... but then I guess, since he married me, he does not have much of a choice.... he got to learn to eat what I make... hm... no wonder he look so happy last night.. when he told me he will eat dinner out.. hahahahaha

He's back home now! Just stepped in =)

Diaster dinner?? =(

Today was my first time in making a full meal for hubby... hai.. so disappointed.. the egg n pork din turn out the way I expected n for some strange reason, the white rice turnned out to be porrodge!!!

So disappointed... hai.. after so many days of cooking OK rice, today the rice turn to porridge!!! So sad.. hai... I think the food is terriable lar.. fm the look on hubby's face as he ate it.. v sad. I also make soup... this is relatively easy, just cut up the potatoes, carrots & onions,throw it into the pot add water n put to boil together with the chicken breast meat. Tat's it! At least, this one turn out the way it is supposed to be and hubby say not bad. =)

I wanted to make fried egg with onions n pork.. hai.... turns out I seem to just be frying the pork n onions with egg... Next time, I must remember to fry the pork AND onions together before adding the egg!! I think this is still passable...

The worse is the rice! for the last few days, I had no problems with it, but today, the rice turned to porridge! Hubby don't like to eat porridge and I think this is the worse thing. Hai..

I think I getting quite good at making porridge leh.. I hv been having porridge for dinner since last week, no wonder my porridge skills getting better lor... But I AM SICK of eating porridge!!!

What shall I make for dinner??

Hm.. ran out of things to cook my porridge... wondering what can I have for dinner... I'm getting so sick of eating pork, pork & mre pork!! I want to eat sme veg!!!

Have sms hubby to ask him to buy potatoes and carrots when he comes back fm work later. I was thinking I can use these 2 veg for my porridge and I can use the potatoe to make a salad for hubby. Add on a soup (instant kind lar) + a tuna sandwich, think that should be able to satsify his stomach?? Anyway, I at times only take a tuna sandwich in office during lunch when I don't feel like eating too heavy... I don't think the sandwich alone is enough for hubby but add on to a potatoe salad n soup.. shd be ok ba...

Anyway, there are still bread, biscuits n milk at home shd he feel hungry later at night... most importantly, coffee shop is just downstairs, he can go n get something easily too!

Ok! Settled! Potatoe & Carrot porridge for myself while Potatoe salad, Tuna sandwich & Mushroom soup for hubby tonite. At least is something different from the rice n hotdog everyday lar.

4th day into poxy..

Monday! For the longest time ever, this is the 1st time that I do not have Monday Blues =) Y? Coz I'm still on MC!! hahahahahah... fm the pox pox... hai... actually I think it's not so bad coz I think the pox-es are done growing, so now, they are either turning into bubbles or if not into pus... hubby says the condition has worsen coz of the pus... but I am not sure. Coz my in-laws came ov to our hse last nite. (They are so swt!! MIL actually cook porridge and bring over for us for dinner!)

On seeing me, she only says, hm... shd be recovering and reminded me not to scratch it and she says I do not seem to have as many pox as hubby when he got it. She did not mention abt the pus so I guess, it's normal... They stayed quite a while here so we just chat n watch TV while they do the OTO massage... They seemed surprised that we have this machine... hm.....

Anyway, my mother came over this morning, bringing with her, the water chestnut n sugar cane for me to make "liang teh" I seem to be drowing myself in "liang teh" n "coconut" drinks. I usually boil 1 big pot of the "liang teh" everyday and eat 2 coconut in a day!! My goodness... think the chicky pox is really a "heaty" affair coz i need soooo much "cooling" food!! But I do enjoy eating the coconut.. cold n nice! Yummy yummy!!

Towards the afternoon, colleagues start calling up to ask me abt work, I'm not surprised and neither am I irriated abt it. If they don't call, I will be worried! Coz I'm leaving behind 2 solid weeks of programmes which starts tomorrow for them to handle whille all these while, I have been doing everything. If no one calls me, i will think that either my role at work is can be dealt away with or they are v v good, which also brings back to the issue that I can be dealt away with! So overall, I am v v happy that they called and need my inputs here and there! kekekeke.. guess.. I am still abit important? ;P

These few days at home has settled into a sort of routine in a way... morning wake up, prepare hubby's bf (yar, even though i am dw wif pox!! Good wifey huh? hahahaha) then will sit wif him as he eats n the he goes off, while I will go back to bed n snooze for a while mre coz most of the time I have problems sleeping at nite.. I hope it was because for the last few nights the pox were really really giving me problems. (There was 1 night, I woke up at 2 am and can't slp till 10+pm the next day!!)

I will wake up later in the morning then eat my bf and just laze arnd the hse n do sme light cleaning... dun want to do anything too much coz afraid that I may burst the pox by accident, so will just watch TV, read books n generally laze. Can't even surf net in the afternoon coz we have yet to apply for our access and we can do so now is coz we tap others'... =P

By evening, after hubby comes hm will also be time to prepare simple dinner, dinner for me is just porridge... think I am getting the hang of making porridge.. the way I like it! The thick, gluey kind... hahahahaha.. dinner for hubby is just rice.. n he will buy sme dishes fm food stores n eat.. though for the last 2 days, he is living on hotdogs... must get him to change.. too much sodium those hotdogs.

Kind of loose track which day is which, today feels like a week end except that no hubby arnd with me... N i spend the time same as the way I spend the wk ends. Kind of getting bored with life liao.. but still no choice coz the pox are there and I am contagious, I simply CANNOT go anywhere!! =(

My MC will be till 28 Oct, that will be the day where I can officially step out of the house and am not contagious anymore... but then again, how is any1 gng to define if I am still contagious?! hm.... anyway... my MC ends on 28 Oct and I leaving SG on 30 Oct.. I really cannot wait for the MC to end.. hai..

dou dou here, there, EVERYWHERE!!!

lMy goodness!!! My whole body is covered wif dou dou now! Includes my face, on my lips, my scalp, my body, my hands n even my butt!!! Argg.. it's getting itchy as well!

CANNOT scratch coz will leave scars.. But easy to say lor... hai... it was still bearable earlier but when the sky turned dark n rained, the itch got so bad.. I am like moving arnd on my butt to ease the itch coz i cannot scratch!

Today is only the 1st day, I think there will be more of such dou dous popping out over the next few days... or it not then the current dou dous will all turn into something wif liquid inside.. still cannot squeeze coz it will burst n leave a scar.. Argg..

At least, it's not dengue, at least i got a 15 day MC, at least I don't hv to work my butt off for the programmes coming up? So i guess, to exchange for all these is kind of worth it? Only thing I din bargain for is, I got to cook my own "liang teh", my own meals! I was thinking since my mother so near, she may be offering to cook for me.. hai... I thought wrongly then.

But she was quite swt lar, she bought the ingriedents for me to cook.. coz I am being quartine at hm.

still on MC..

Still on MC for today.. Woke up with an even higher temperature than I went to bed with.. hai.. immediately took med, fix bf for hubby, sat with him while he ate n then I crawled back to bed.

Surprisingly, I still know the meaning of hungry, will wake up to find food... goes to show tat I am not as sick as I thought I will be lar. But too bad, nothing much at home to eat, just ate sme biscuits n slp sme mre.. then after tat ate maggie mee n slp again.

Got a few sms fm colleagues asking how I am.. also got a few calls abt work related issues. Think tml i go back office will peng san there liao..

I certainly pray that those teachers who registered their students for the program will remember.. I think tml whole day I will be sending emails to cfm their registration. Pray that it is not too late n that they think since we not response, they cancel. If they really do that, think my head will roll!!!

All righty, to calm myself down, here's the lists of things that I need to do for tml.
1) To send all confirmation & rejection notes to schools - Discovery (only left with schools taking BM programes lar, the rest I sent on Tues. Hengzzz...)
2) To send all confirmation & rejection notes to schools - EW
3) PR for extra refreshment - both Discovery & EW
4) PR for polo-tees
5) Order refreshment
6) Cfm the attendance for BP
7) Cfm schedule for FTP

think.. tat's abt it for tml... now that I hv listed it out.. it does not seem as daunting as it was a few mins ago..

*whew*

sick also cannot rest in peace... =(

fever...

Oh dear! Oh dear!

I woke up with a temperature of 37.8 degrees! (I have a habbit of taking temperature every morning coz of NFP)

Last nite, my temperature was at 38.2 degrees! I went to bed aching n sweating.. so hot! Told hubby I think I am having fever, but he say no... then i took a thermometer n stick it under my tongue then he believes me! Hmph...

Today, i went to c doc. Coz of no infection, sore throat etc, doc suspect it may be dengue... Oh dear.... given me 2 days MC.. chiam.. I still hv letterts to be sent to the schools which I have not manage to finish yest! Die lar... By the time I go back to office, it's Fri and I really must call the school to confirm before I send them any notes... die! Die!

So many things to do n so little time to do it! This letters are just for the "Discovery" programmes.. still have the "EW" programmes to be sent out as well.... I really hope that there will not be any cock up. If not, my head will roll!!!

Doc says since she cannot be sure if it's dengue till later (coz the sympthoms will only appear later) she told me to hv plenty of rest, drink lots of water n meanwhile, she will treat my fever n gastric flu like normal virus)

Came back slightly after noon, n sleep till abt 4 pm. Now i feel better. Just that body is still aching n stomach still don't feel too well.

Hai... pray for the best then. Nothing I can do except to listen to the doc, to drink lots of fluid n hv pently of rest n pray hard about it!

Tired Tuesday..

Oh gosh... I'm tired tired tired... early moring there was a long long long meeting abt the upcoming event. Then a lunch n then another long meeting with some outside staff about the programmes that we are offering. Hengzz.. I manage to wriggle myself out of this meeting! If not, I wont be able to go hm at 6 pm tonite!

Have finally manage to send out infor to most of the participants for 1 of the porgram. N it took me half the afternoon to get it done, I still hv 2 mre participants to send to.. hai...

After this, tml I have another full programme to be sent out to other participants. My days n nights are so full. I'm so tired!

I NEED A BREAK!!!

Darling's Bday today

Today is hubby's 26th Bday. =)

Din really hv a chance to celebrate leh.. coz both of us are lazy bums, supposed to go to church at 9.45 am for mass but coz it was raining we decided to go back n slp n then go mass for the last mass which is 5.30 pm.

Then we finally dragged our body out of the comfy bed n started to clean the hse abit.. really is just ABIT.. hai.. really don't like to do all these hse work! But now is NO CHOICE coz my own hse got to do lor if not who do for me?! Hai... then before we know it, got to rush out liao coz we hv a meeting wif sme church friends for the childrens' "party" during the feast day on 20 Nov.

Meeting was rather interesting generated sme ideas n then hubby n me rushed off for lunch n then back hm to clean up the hse sme mre n then go mass...

After mass, we went to J8 n had dinner at Cartel... good food now still v full.. hahahahaaha..

Better go off liao. Hubby keeps walking up to behind me n says today is his bday n left with 20 mins... hahahahahaha...

spent alot of $$ =S

After all the AP's & Vouchers have been counted. We decided to use the well wishers gifts to get something for our home. After all, we do need the items, it's just a matter of time b4 we get it anywhere. Since we are able to get it now then might as well get it now, especially when there are sales gng on =)

Hubby & I are such lazy bums... we said that today we will get out of the hse as early as we can n tat is after 12!! We simply just wake up n do nothing, laze arnd n then finally decided to shift our butts out of the hse!

We took a bus to Orchard and our 1st stop was Tangs coz we had a $30 voucher to spend. Bought a Tefal pan n accessory and being happy wif our purchase, we moved on to Taka.

I already know what I want to get, so the moment we hit Taka, we immediately went to the kitchen ware section n look for the WMF pots where it's being sold at $100 for 4 pots. Great deal! Especially since we need to hv pots and they are being sold at $100 for 4 different sizes. Also bought the Cornell oven toaster, rice cooker n hot pot... yeah! Finally our hse mre self sufficient can at least cook an egg! Now Godma cannot say my hse nothing liao. Being the proud owner of sme pots n pan does make me feel happy. Hahahahaaha.. Let's hope that I can do justice to the pots n pan n make them do their respective share of the work! hahahahaha.. but I can only get to c them on Sat afternoon, coz the delivery is only scheduled to be delievered then. N the VERY first thing I am gng to "kai chang" wif is the nasir lemak rice that hubby is SUPPOSED to contribute for the RCIA canteen on 16 Oct. Makes me a good wifey hor, cook his share of food leh!! =) But hor... I hv simply no idea what my grp is doing for the canteen!!!! Die!! =(

Then after spending a couple of hundreds there, still in an all time high after a woman spends $$$... we went for mre shopping at John Little... this time just bought sme dental needs for ourselves... (paid fully by vouchers too!!)

Finally went to HN, we wanted to buy a vacumm cleaner, a standing fan n maybe side table for the hse... look c look c..... finally decided on the Deyson cleaner... wah lau... the most expensive of ALL the purchase!!! Stupid cleaner costs us $400++ even after paying with vouchers n the sales mgr refused to give us mre discounts even though we pay so much!! Humph.... refuse to buy the fan from them. Will go to courts where they charge us $10 cheaper! hahahahaha... darn cheapskate... Delivery will be on Tues evening.. so may miss OGF then.. c how... actually we over spend for the vacumm... we hv no intentions of spending so much of such a machine but after comparsions.. still think it is worth the $$ so we went ahead.

Thank God for the generousity of our friends n relatives.. if not we will never be able to buy all these items!

We finally bought the jigsaw frame (yups, after so darn long) n now the puzzle is hanging on the wall... too bad the nail is a nailed abit too low.... puzzle does not hv the full glory it's supposed to receive.. so sad... will try to renail the nail so that we can shift the position of the puzzle!

All in all, was a good day, bought almost all we need save for the standing fan with a total of $600+++... happy but tired now.. hahahaha..

better go bathe so tat i can still go bed early n tml hv to go for morning mass... =)

oh... tml or rather is hubby's bday liao... haven't got him anything.. coz no time n also don't know wat to get him... buy him a good dinner later then! =)

I'm being bugged!

Argg...

post wedding blues...

I think I may suffering from a bout of "post wedding blues" after so many mths of staying soooo bz wif wedding n hse preps, the lazy & relaxing evenings seems to mke me uncomfortable.

Keeps wishing that there is something to do, for us to c to. Of course I am glad that all the things fall into place and worked out well. But now that I am so free in the evenings, kind of don't know what to do to my life. Esp now tat wif hubby at my side every single evening, really time seems too much. hahahahahaha.. coz I can't cook so we go to parents' plc for dinner but tat's it. After tat we go home n laze in front of the google box doing nothing. Quite a waste of time mar.

So last nite was my 1st attempt at washing clothes.. turns out to be a diaster.. hahahaha.. I really am not sure how much detergent to use, the water level or if the "load" is full. Worse, hubby keeps getting into my way n I snapped at him... dear dear.... 5 days into the marriage & I'm snapping at him.. chiam.. got to keep my temper under ctrl man..

Now that we are married, there's so many things that I cannot do at my whim and fancy anymore.. like earlier today, BIL gave me quite a scare. He called hubby to tell him that they (MIL + 2 BIL, FIL in Kuantan) will tapow n come to our plc to eat! Tonite of all nights!! I have kickboxing & I am looking foward to go for it coz missed last wk.. so I got to change my plans and cannot go kickboxing coz 1st visit by family, me as the wifey cannot, not be there right? So got to miss it.. n was frantically running thru the mess in the hse which I got to clear b4 they arrive... n Thank God, they say they decided to stay hm n eat.. hengz!!!

Aiyoh.. all these things add on to my bluies... not just I got to maintain n keep the hse, I got to take care of hubby n worse of all.... I also got to 'entertain' his family... hai.. I don't like all these but no choice... marriage is not just hubby n me.. but hubby, me, his family & my family. We got to work hard at it man..

Last nite coz of nothing to do... hubby took sme pics of our "bands of a lifetime" here's 2 pics.. I showed the pic to another friend n she commented tat mine's prettier.. but of course! Mine has a tiny stone set in it.. hahahahaha..
Our bands are White Gold, with Rose Gold at the rims and inside both rings, there's a blue saphire... think it goes very well with this for wedding...
Something new
Something old
Something borrowed
Soemthing blue...
this IS our bands (which we bought 1 day before the wedding and has something blue) =)

pretty, aren't they?can u c our names + date of wedding! =)

I'm MARRIED?!

woah... after months of preparations, excitment, worries, arguements and frustrastions... it's ALL over!

Just with the snap of my fingers, I'm now legally and spirtually and 100% married to hubby. The feeling is kind of hard to describe. On 1 hand, it's natural progression and on the other hand all these are over, leaving a bit of an empty feeling coz now our busy days of wedding prep are over we have more free time on our hand and we really can R&R.

Yesterday was a whirl of events, I cannot be sure if I have missed out anything neither can I remember much details. All I remember was that I can't get to slp the nite before, woke up at 6 am, nothing to eat at hm =( n then before I knew it, the MUA and VG came together. Started on my make up then PG came, PG & VG took shots and my parents did the shu tou halfway.

MUA actions v fast! Less than 1 hour, I am ready. Dressed in my gown and everything then my jie mei's came, they started the prep for the gatecrash, mre aunties came at the same time n time just fly by.. woah.. v v fast!

Then hubby and his brothers came, the 1st task was for them to shout out a mushy poem fm downstairs to my level making sure I can hear them.. the poem was so funny. Contributed by 1 of my jie mei - charm.. hahahahahha got time then i'll post it here.

The rest of wat happend i hv no idea coz i was locked in the rm.. I knew it when hubby manage to climb to my level but they were haggling for AP for so long!! I waited anxiously.. the longer the wait, the mre kan cheong I became.. argg...

Finally, hubby manage to satisfy the jie mei n he came to my rm.... finally can get to c him... he looks dashing in his suit. N he looks happy n excited too! =) Finally time for me to step out of my bedroom... =O 3 big cameras pointed at me.. I was so surprised! Coz i only know that we hv Paul & Elijah. Who is the 3rd?? It's a middle age man whom I cannot recongnise!

Then we went to my IL's plc for the jin cha and came back to my hse for the jin cha... so many ppl!! Wow... as though the whole clan of all our relatives came to this celebration!

After lunch at my parents, we flew back to our new hse to clean up. I took a bath n then wait for Lynn to come to doll me up again. This time i choose mre neutural shades for the church wedding.

Hubby left our hse at abt 1.15 pm wif the PGs & VG. He must go there earlier to receive the guests lor.. while I still take up own swt time to doll up.. hahahaha.. think my dad also kan cheong.. called me at 1.30 pm and ask me where I am how come havent gone to pick him up.. hahahahaha.. i though he was not really bothered by the whole wedding but in fact he was quite kan cheong too lar.. hahahahaha

reached the church at abt 1.45 pm. Woah!! So many ppl!!! The recept table was full of activity leh! Thank goodness for good friends whom helped me all the way!

As the mins ticked nearer n nearer to 2 pm.. my heart pound harder n harder n harder.. gosh.. so worried that I really will trip! Lynn came to the vestry to call me at 2 pm.... I was so kan cheong n excited n a whole lot of other feelings. As the music start, I walked in slowly. I can't smile!! I'm so nervous that I cannot smile, my face seems to be as though I am in a stroke, I cannot ctrl my face!!! Argg!!!! But still we walk dw the aisle.... slowly, steady and soon I am at hubby's side. Fr. Yim came into the church then with the 4 altar servers.. He looks good in red (the colour of celebration) chasuble. Walked ov to congraulate us and then took his seat at the altar.

I was so nervous, I cannot remember hearing the march in music neither did I notice the pews! OMG. Everything in the mass happens according to the mass booklet. After looking at it for mths, it's finally happening! Before I knew it, it was time for us to exchange our vows n then our rings... bands of a lifetime and the mass carries on.

But once seated down, i stole peaks at our guests, good can c that lots of the invited ppl are here. Though they did not really sit according to plan but hey, most of them are here! =)

Before I knew it, we are "Husband & Wife" and mass has ended... woah.. so fast for our march out. This time I'm still just as nervous and I still did not hear the march out song. (Again!)

The moment we reach the door we turned back to go to the altar for photos taking... so many grps of ppl and so many ppl!! Took sometime before we all finally settled down and capture shots of everyone!

Went down to the canteen (this is the part, that I am most fearful off!) woah!! Praise Lord, not as pack nor as crowded as we thought! Hengz... we mingled rnd abit, took mre photos stayed till 4.30 pm n then off we went back hm so we can bathe n change out for our dinner with our new families at noble hse later. Food was good, service is good too just v v slow!

It was a tiring day, definately, my jaws n face are numb fm smiling! Gosh... finally it's over!

I'm Married in the hse of God! =)
