Welcome 01 Jan 2010

I realized I have not been blogging for the longest time since this blog exist. hehe.. I'm back now !! Happy New Year to all you readers....

I started this brand new year attending my friend, Marcus' Wedding at Thompson Baptist Church located at Novena. What a good way to start your brand new year with someone whom you wanna spend eternity with. Congrats to you Marcus and Dorcas!!

Thank God I met Serena and Samantha after the wedding... honestly, I felt a little awkward sitting alone. Now I knew how my guest feel when they are stranger to everybody. ha ha

Looking back 2009, it's been both a blissful and challenging year for me. I think like what Pastor Kong says in many services. "It's been a challenging year for many people" I guess I'm part of the "many people" he was referring to. Shall not elaborate here.

Nevertheless, the best part of my life would also doubtlessly be the first 7 months of 2009. I actually miss those busy moments preparing for our wedding. I remembered doing so many things like:

Signing up facial package- Neighbourhood beautician can do a good job too.
Sourcing out for HM/Banquet venue- The initial stage. haha.. We had fun doing all the researching.
Searching for resale flat
Parent's meeting session @ Pearl River Palace. It felt weird cos they are just so unfamiliar to one another. Weather talk blah blah blah.....
Shopping at Ikea-falling in love with that place. I'm a friend of Ikea alright!!
Sourcing for video-grapher in JB- exciting!! They did a great job on our wedding day as well
Bridal package- Went to dunno how many bridal shop and finally settled with French bridal. The experience was fun too.
Studio/Outdoor photoshoot- going back to SGSS to get the school approval to use their premises. There's just lotsa sweet flash back memories.
Buying all the necessary stuff for wedding- Corsage, Bling bling high-heel, Cala lillies, sashes for hall deco, parents gift, wedding box
Confirming Caterer- Food tasting session at Neo Garden.
Buying furniture for bedroom/toilet at Balestier- learnt our lesson. Don't you commit too fast!!
Simple renovation- This is tiring due to the terrible weather and dirt all over the place. Dread cleaning up the place.
Collection ROM cert- It's H1N1 peak season!! hahaha.. High Alert!! Gotta recite some vows before you can collect the cert
Confirming Justice of the Peace - Find him at TPY where he conduct Meet the People session
Tailor-made our wedding band- haha. got a chance to wear a 8carets ring. Shiok!! And I love the band design. Cartel inspired leh!!
Manicure- Woooho beautiful... but this cost my pocket a big hole la. $168
Filming Thank-You speech at Marine Barrage- Woohoo.. Fun and I like this idea!!
Confirming Photographer- Reuben!! He did an awesome job.
Booking our Honeymoon destination- Taiwan (Awesome place)
Guo Da Li- Surprisingly there's nothing much here.. we rush down to Felix wedding later.
Staring at our lappy till wee hour to draft out our Itinerary
Buying 250 floating balloons for Hall Deco - I think it creates a very sweet feeling on the actual day
Discussing with Jos on the wedding montage.
Sourcing for wedding related songs - Thanks to all my helpful friends
Confirming guest list - BIG headache
Ongoing Driving lessonsssssss- Oh yes... these driving lessons are driving me crazy and I failed 3 days before my wedding day.

And Of cuz..... comes the most important day -----> 18th July 2009
All that we have done pays off well on the actual day. Thank God for all the friends and relatives who make it there for our Big Day

The list just goes on and on. During then, I've got so much things to anticipate. haha. Thank God for giving us a Car men!! I can't imagine doing all these stuff without this mean of transport. This Suzuki Swift has indeed serve us well. I guess the next time I will get so busy will probably be the day I prepare for motherhood. hahaha...

Anyhow, I just confess that 2010 would be an awesome, properous and fruitful year for both us. Starting the race afresh!!
