Come as you are. As i want you to be.
While talking to the boy about Photoshoot ideas, we came up with lots and lots but couldn’t figure out which one we wanted.
I have always like something casual like this Taylor Swift MTV.
or this:
But it’ll be reallly interesting if we can do this instead:
ala Rock Concert! \m/
Don’t know if we can pull it off though!
Oh, hello!
How long has it been since i last blogged? Been really busy with work and stuffs and couldn’t find time to blog.
I have just completed my Marriage Preparation Course by the way.
The class that i went to, was really really small. Only 5 couples.
While it was really mostly common sense topics, i particularly like the Finance topic covered by the Facilitator.
We were told to get in groups and given a scenario of a typical family and to list down the budget.
Oh my. Belanja rumah macam apa. Belanja untuk 2 kids je boleh dalam $500 – $800 per month.
The boy initially wanted 3 kids. I wanted two.
After that discussion, i still insisted on two kids.
He still insist we should have at least three. God bless me.
Thank God the session was only 9.00am to 4.00pm only instead of 6.00pm as the cut the tea breaks short.
The boy and me had fun though, jotting down things we want for our family and how our vision is actually similar. Alhamdulilah.
Now, i can’t wait for 19th May cos we’ll be able to book our kadi on that day.
As for my other wedding DIY, i’ll probably start doing them actively in May since i’ll be clearing my leave on that month.
and oh.. on a random note, Great Singapore Sale starts on 27th May 2011!
I am still waiting patiently for HDB to approve our AHG. They are seriously getting on my nerves. They told me it will take one month, but it’s coming to two months already and still no news.
The reassuring part is, when i go to Forums, some of them are still waiting for their keys too.
I have got lotsa things to update actually. Will do so when i’m free! 🙂

The other thing i am looking forward to, apart from the wedding has to be our love nest.
I don’t know what’s taking H/D/B so long to get all the paperwork done. sigh.
Because i have done almost all the research for my wedding, i tend to do more research for house deco instead. I have been prowling the renotalk forums for tips and contacts for contractors etc.
I may not be engaging an ID cos we don’t intend to take up any renovation loans and getting an ID is just a waste of $ for us since we have aready envision what we want for the house. It’s gonna be something really simple, and we are going to add things slowly, but surely.
I have already got my contractor for my floorings. I’ll be using Supreme Flooring for my laminate flooring. We have paid the deposit for the floorings but have not chosen any colours yet. Keith, the sales staff in charge of us is extremely helpful. I brought him down to the flat when the H/D/B officer was there to allow me to do a site inspection. I wasn’t happy with the state of my flooring as there were lots of bumps and the officer kept saying “it’s like that one.”
Keith helped me to reason out with the officer cos i was hopping mad when he kept arguing with me.
As for the price, it was a whole lot cheaper than what the ID quoted me.
For my living room and 3 bedrooms, AC5 laminated flooring (which is of the highest grade) cost me $3000 in total. Three ID quoted me between $5000 – $7000. Go figure.
I have not choose the colours yet cos Keith recommends that we paint the house 1st and then we do a colour matching.
The boy wants neutral hues for the house. Browns and Greys possibly.
Here’s some inspiration i got from Google 🙂
These colour combi would be more suitable for the bedroom. So cosy and dreamy.
I love dark colours as feature walls but i fear it wouldn’t be appropriate for H/D/B Flats cos of it’s size and all.
Grey and Dark Brown looks great together!
I like the powder blue + brown combi. So refreshing to see.
I can’t wait to start decorating our new place! Wonder when i’m gonna get those keys!
Ain’t these cute?
Love the pastel colours here!
Stacked Tea-cups with pearls.
My favourite! The baby breath enhance the whole do.
Love the colour of the flowers. Complements the vintage feel of the teacups very well.
It was very hard for me to hand my Resignation letter to my manager today but i figured it’s either today or next year.
Booyah! 1 – 0.
I laughed so hard just now when she screamed and came over to my desk and hit me with the letter.
Happy April’s Fool!
Take a chill pill and laugh if you get pranked ok!
