it is so cool that JP Fu agrees to solemnize!
she is interesting!
we saw her at connie & jake's solemnization & we kind of like her.
heheee~ connie recommended me to engage JP Fu.
so lucky she is available for our time slot.
she has another ceremony in the evening.
we were trying our luck to see if she is available as 11 nov is a very popular date.
lucky lucky us! =D

now we need to settle our outfits, shoes, invitation cards & photographer.
we hope we are not missing out anything...

check #1d

yes.. finally finalized with our ROM venue!
the place where we are becoming man & wife is at Mezebar.
we will have the whole bar to ourselves on our special day.
took us two weeks to decide on this lovely venue.
we want it to be really special.
don't intend to hold it by the poolside or in a function room.
to us, the solemnization is more important than actual day dinner (which will be at least a year later).

we will need to secure a JP soon..
on a lookout for photographer as UK can't commit due to his in-camp.
anyone has a good & reasonable rates photographer to recommend?

oh yes!! yesterday, we went to IC to attend jake & connie's wedding.
both of them look so stunning!
we love the settings & color theme.
it was gold & white.
their JP seems to be such a jovial lady!
quite patient & she requested for the guests to be silent as the ceremony was starting.
there was a silence of around 1 min and the rest of the guests at the end of the corridor started to talk among themselves.
she had the 'oh dear.. what to do' look as the noise gets louder.
but she continued on as they were already half-way through the ceremony.
i guess that is the problem of a large crowd.
i think they should respect the newly-wedded couple.
oh well...

the wedding favors were white rose-shaped soap & potpourri.
the dishes were yummy, too!
we loved the red bean with lotus seeds & lily bud dessert!
can consider this hotel for our actual day =)
shall wait till our solemnization is over.
plan one step at a time.

:x

almost fainted this morning while i was waiting for my bus to work.
i was seeing stars & my heart thumped so fast.
it took me quite awhile to reach home.
i had to stop every few steps as i can't breathe properly.
i was breaking out in cold sweat, too..
first time i felt this way..
아이고..
when i finally reached home, i had the vomitting urge.
i threw up my breakfast & my EPO.
sheesh... now then i know the EPO is so bitter!
yucks!
i think i know why i felt so sick this morning..
it should be the 4 caps of EPO that i've taken before i head out.
initially i was having very bad cramps & i thought it will ease the pain ASAP.
duhz... instead it made me sick.
too much of something is bad. bad. bad.
lucky i didn't faint on the streets..

all right... let's have something to cheer up a bad day.
SJ - 행복
free hugs!

바다가 가고싶어~~

my celebrity look-alikes

after 3 tries, i decided that my twin is Ueto Aya =)

flowers of Jul

i don't mean the real flowers.
꽃미남!

꽃미남연쇄테러사건 to be released end of this month.

going to be a hilarious movie =)

개와 늑대의 시간
not the typical korean drama of police, spy & triad.
this is dark.

transformers

*gasp* i realised i didn't blog about this movie when i first watched it.
how could i?!
lol~ this IS the best movie i've seen so far.

would you choose Protect or Destroy upon reaching this awesome movie site?
watched it for the 2nd time as the girls didn't get to watch it as they were holidaying in Aust.
so glad that they love it, too =)
watching it at Lido was a horror.
we all know how bad the seats are.. but we are left with no choice.
most cinemas were fully booked.
a few blokes in the 4th row kept talking when the movie was starting.
it was lucky they shut up soon after.
what else that is next that can be so bad?
this girl behind me kept shifting & knocking into my seat.
it happened not once, not twice but 10 times.
yes.. i counted.
i was so irritated that by the 4th time, i turned around to look at her.
she stopped for awhile & not long after, it started all over again.
i was darn pissed as i'm trying to enjoy a good movie.
i tried so hard to ignore her as i didn't want to spoil the mood of other movie-goers.
i would have told her off.
there were so many of us who were feeling so cramped up but we don't even fidget like what she did.
to the extent of affecting others.
it was torturous to watch movie with constant knocking at my seat.
not going back to Lido ever again.
she ought to consider revamping her cinemas.
used to enjoy movies at Lido & Cathay when i was a little kid.
fond memories..
a good thing that Cathay did something & now she is such a magnificent theatre.
as for Lido.. a pity...

check #1c

=)
it is getting better & better!
this 5 star hotel surely has more attractive offers.
PPH's menu is the best among the other hotels that we've been to.
day room is available, too! =)
excellent!
it appears that male co-ordis are more attentive.
weird huh?
lol

check #1b

CH tops our list now.
she has all that we wanted.
we are also very happy with the co-ordi =)
excellent service!

time is running out...
we need to decide fast!
so many things to do.....

check #1a

RH won both of our hearts.
even laura was impressed. lol!
hmmm.. she does not have a room stay in her package.
need to pay $190++ if we want to get a night stay.
good location, reasonable pricing, yummy dishes selection & thoughtful co-ordi =)
she took the initiative to ask us if we drive and she went to get us a complimentary ticket.
NOT like El*** of PR :x
RH vs PR -> RH wins hands down!

after viewing RH, we went to Tao's for dinner.
excellent food & service =)
the dinner is $28.80++.
bacon mushroom gratin
love its creamy taste!
the toast was awesome, too!


bbq pork ribs
holy~~ it's better than cafe cartel's..


lamb chops
terence & eric had this.
hmm... i'm not a lamb fan.
the guys commented it was tender & juicy.


grilled flouder with cheese
laura loved it!
i think it is too cheesy... :x


pumpkin soup
i can't stop raving about it!
it won the hearts of non-pumpkin lovers like laura & terence.
lol~


creme brulee
*DROOL*


my new cyworld layout ;)
was in a super joyous mood & decided to revamp my cyworld.
spent quite abit but i'm think it is worth it <3

To our ROM

check #1

is searching for suitable locations for ROM.
we have emailed to at least 15 locations & now we have shortlisted 4.
geez~ i reckon their packages are subjected to sudden changes.
yesterday evening, we went down to PR.
we were so shocked when the rep told us that the minimum # of guests is 50 instead of 30 as it was stated in her proposal last fri.
another bomb is the one day stay in the hotel is not in the package anymore.
it is subjected to availability on the day itself.
need to check with management on it.
need to find our own decor & we must liaise with the florist on our own.
reason? to save our cost as we do not have to go through PR as the middle-men.
we think it is more like can't-be-bothered attitude.
WTH?!
the wedding planners are supposed to plan all these stuffs right? T_T
this hotel was initially in my #2 choice slot.
after hearing the 'changes' & looking at the pavilion..
decision: PR.

as for our #1 choice MC, we decided to forgo her as well.
read alot of very negative feedbacks on this hotel for her wedding planners.
inflexible & not very responsible when things messed up.
besides, we were at MC over the weekend & we saw a post-solemnization.
it is by the pool.
lots of guests were swimming & noisy kids running around.
not much privacy huh?
there is not even a day room from what i found out.
have to request for a room if we need one to dump our stuffs.
i read that a couple was given a hospitality room.
what is this room?
AKA public laundry room!
T_T
with all the bad bad comments, MC.

keeping my fingers & toes for the 2 remaining hotels.
we hope we will not hear of sudden changes.
don't like rude shocks.

To our ROM

alot of

preparation works & both of us are enjoying it.
heheee~~
it feels really wonderful to have 2 heads & hearts together to plan one of the biggest moments of our beautiful lives.
time to do checklist soon~
