She is a lovely, intelligent and pretty angel. She is Mr.&Mrs.Lim precious. She is one of the smartest kids I have ever met. 3 year old, she can sing lots of songs, very observant and love to ask questions...
Her favorite quote :"What jj say?" (jj is me...wuahahaha... still jj oooooo)
Her word of the day :"Why?"
Merlis, you are such a lucky girl that you got a chance travel to Sydney while you were few months old. And now you are back to Sydney for your 3 year old birthday celebration. Hope all these sweet moments be kept in your memories and wish you have a happy healthy joyful birthday!!!

As the pregnancy symptoms are getting severe, guess I won't be able to update the diary as frequent as before.
My morning sickness is not only in the morning, it happens all day long.
And I feel fatique easily.
I slept almost 12 hours now...
I am a piggy already...
17 April 2008, Thursday
We shared our good news with parents tonight. Hubby told mum in law and I told my mum. When I called my mum and shared the news, I almost cried...
It is tears of joy, of course.
16 April 2008, Wednesday
Our initial plan was to visit gynae together on this coming Saturday.
But I couldn't really rest well these few days, partly caused by frequent urine. The unpleasant feeling is getting worse. So I decided to visit the doctor today, hopefully he can give me some advise on how to handle these better.
The fees definately cost us a BIG bomb. First visit AUD150!!!! Plus an ultrascan AUD50, it goes AUD200 (RM600)
For this fees, some may say our first visit fees is already a full pregnancy period visit fees cost in Malaysia. oh gosh...
The worse part is, Dr.Leung told me morning sickness is a good sign. Good to have it better than don't, cause it means the embryo is growing. oh gosh...
I ask him what supplement should I take? He then look at the folic acid I showed him (which I started to take since Janurary) and said that is good enough for the momment. I can eat anything I wish, moderately. Nothing particular. Oh gosh...
He didn't even perform another pregnancy test for me... oh gosh...
I spent AUD200 in less than 15minutes time... oh gosh...

I was still telling Irene that how lucky are we, pregnant and yet have no morning sickness symptoms that most preggie suffer.
Guess I have make the conclusion too early...
I started to have some unpleasant feeling this evening.
Darling suggest to buy me Japanese Salmon bento, my response was..."iokkkk..."
13 April 2008, Sunday
I met a HongKong girl some days ago in a pharmacy while I buy a pregnancy test. We have been each other's support and build up our friendship along the way.

Thanks for the yummy dinner. And, that was my last time consume salmon fish...

Period missing since 5th April...
After missing period for a week, I did a pregnancy test this morning...
It shows me two clear red lines within a few seconds.
I woke darling up... (oh, that time was 5am)
Both of us can hardly go back to sleep after that.
Too excited?

Although I was with hubby in Sydney last year for 3months. But I have never make the effort look for him at his working place... Guess I am just too shy(10%) and too lazy(90%)...
This time, I have a good partner to travel. So 2 siu nai nai (Mrs. Hung and Mrs.Wong) relax relax go to look for our dear husband for lunch @ Olympic Park...
My dear husband, very bad, he complain in front of Tony and Cathrine that after waited for so long, finally I come to look for him for lunch.

1. NEVER both be angry at the same time.
2. NEVER yell at each other unless the house is on fire
3. If ONE of you has to win an argument, let it be your mate.
4. If you have to criticize, do it lovingly.
5. NEVER bring up mistakes of the past.
6. Neglect the whole world rather than each other.
7. NEVER go to sleep with an argument unsettled.
8. At least once everyday try to say ONE complimentary thing to your partner.
9. When you have done something wrong, be ready to ADMIT and ask for forgiveness.
10. It takes TWO to make a quarrel, and the one in the wrong is the one who does the most talking.
Come across this article while I browse internet. Thought it is useful for all new wed couple like us...
Or even those married for years might find it useful at certain points too?

Lots and lots of fun @ One of Australia Biggest Event of the year, Easter Show!

Hubby told me Tony and his wife are arriving today. We will have a dinner together in one of the famous restaurant @ Darling Harbor.
I have met Tony and his wife before, during our wedding banquet. But we didn't have much talk that time.
We have heard from Tony before this that his wife is a very sweet lady, gorgeous, pretty, sexy, like an angle.
This evening, I will meet angle Catherine...

I have no idea why my dear husband chosen his dessert drinks - sour soup in a pre-packed bottle...I tried a little bit, is OUT of my taste....

想不到澳洲秉承了香港的风俗,好多老外和我们一样星期天都有去“叹茶”。幸好我们十一点到,迟30分钟我们都得排队等位子!我想,除了马来西亚饮茶不需要等位子以外,亚洲的唐人餐厅基本上都捞得很好。

今晚是我好姐妹上头的好日子。虽然时间上听起来是比较疯狂(凌晨1点),不过贵为好姐妹,当然是会见证她被祝福的一刻。
明丽的上头显得很有气派。她有两位摄影师为他操刀。其一,我亲爱的老公,另一位则是英权。
明丽啊,看着你穿上中式睡衣,穿上红喜木屐,头上放了长长红线,脸上上了两点白粉,又有百子千孙针枕,也有汤圆十全十美,更有百年好合龙凤花烛。真叫我打开眼界。
在梳子梳在你飘逸长发上,当然少不了的还有你亲戚们齐声祝福的
“一梳梳到尾,二梳白发齐眉,三梳儿孙满地,四梳梳到四条银笋尽标齐。”...

This tall man is one of the passengers in Business Class in the same trip with us. Hubby first notice him because he put 2 SLR on the seat while he goes to toilet. The total cost of that 2 SLR is more than RM30k....

Then later we found out, this guy is one of the NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC Photographer. The SLRs are company asset...

Our newborn baby niece, Orange has her full moon celebration yesterday. We called back to congrats the newly promoted "mummy".
During the conversation, the new mummy suddenly pop up a question:"Do you have good news?"
Hubby and me look at each other for few seconds, trying to catch what does that mean...
Well, guess... good news = baby....
After the call, hubby and me chatted awhile regarding this issue.
We got married 3 months ago. I know hubby always love kids... and I do love kids too!!
But, lately, a new thought come into me. Would life be much more easier if we don't have kids?
Pros and Cons, let's start with the Pros...
1. Don't have to spend money on visiting gynae and consultation plus the delivery fees!
2. Don't have to save milk powder money
3. Don't have to save pampers money
4. Don't have to save babysitter money
5. Don't have to save education fees for kids future
6. Don't have to buy insurance for them
7. Don't have to worried they will become a bad person one day
8. Don't have to "sam gua gua" when you go travel with the other half
9. Don't have to look like "Ah Soh" when you go out with your young kids (carrying milk bottle la, hot water la, napkin la, pampers la, wet tissue la....)
10. Don't have to bear with this "life time property"
Cons...
one and only one, might feel bored at times....
But, who cares? Two person can live happily ever after too right?

Darling experienced severe toothache. We went to buy Panadol from seven-eleven in the midnight...
Tried very hard to fall asleep. Woke up early in the morning... drag and wait till 9am, we visit a dental nearby. Fixed an appointment at 3pm.
The Dental, Dr.Rich was fast. We get everything done and reach home by 3.32pm.
It is really heartbreak to see darling suffer such an unpleasant experience. But I am so glad that I am with him. Albeit can't share the burden but atleast can take care him...
13 January 2008, Sunday
Hubby has confirmed his trip back to Sydney again in February after CNY....
He prefers me to follow him. And I would love to.
But the concern is, what should I do in the 3 months?
I have been enjoying alot these 3 honeymoon months. Another 3 months sounds bit over isn't?
Arh......without working visa, I can't do parttime here!!!
I will be caught and sent back to Malaysia...then can't enter Australia again...

Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bob tails ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to laugh and sing
A sleighing song tonight
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
A day or two ago
I thought I'd take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright
Was seated by my side
The horse was lean and lank
Misfortune seemed his lot
We got into a drifted bank
And then we got upsot
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh

One of my favorite dish is my mum's 冬菇姜鸡.
Well, I tried a few times before while I studied in London and also while I worked in Singapore. Not very successful but eatable...
Tonight, I used 2 Australia Chicken Drumstick, 1 packet of Korean Mushroom and 1 big piece of Ginger to make this pot of 冬菇姜鸡.
Thank God, hubby loves it and will bring some for tomorrow's lunch box.
28 November 2007, Wednesday
We have put on so much weight since we come to Sydney.
Perhaps that was because we have too much junk food after the dinner and before we go to bed.
So, I have decided to replace the junk food with green,red and yellow salad.
The color looks good and it taste good isn't darling? LOL
26 November 2007, Monday
Hubby and myself really hate the Australian Customer Service. They "promised" things that they can't fulfil and they don't even bother to conduct service recovery.
We were supposed to move last week, but in the end it delays to this week. The manager promised to give us a clean room by noon time and also send someone to help us with the baggage.
In the end, the cleaner is still cleaning the place while we move up, and we "help ourselve" with ALL our baggages except the staff uses his two fingers helped us to pull my Samsonite Hardshell Case.
What the.......
25 November 2007, Sunday
We met in the city in the late noon. After a short walk, we decided to have BBQ tonight at cousin David's place.
His place is awesome with contemporary furniture design. Together with the Christmas tree, it makes a warmth home.
less than 2 minutes walking distance to the Panorama Club House, kids enjoy swimming while the adults having a good time sitting down there looking at the amazing scenics view.
Hubby and myself had a real good time tonight. We also celbrated Oscar and Osman's 10th year old birthday in 2 days advance.
No doubt, it sounds bit too early to have Christmas Dinner now, but again, this is the title for tonight's dinner.
Doltone house has a great ambience for catering service, wedding banquet and event celebration. They have different theme of settings. Tonight, we are in red mode. My hubby's favorite.

这是我第二次操刀(当然是剪刀)替老公剪头发。
第一次是在年除夕的前一晚,不过老公还是很怕他的耳朵会牺牲在剪刀下。
对上一次剪头发是结婚当天早上,Monsoon的前stylist清晨来替他剪了一公斤的头发。
老公的头发真得很厚很厚,我剪了很久,手也很累。
终于,一个小时后,沿着之前大发型师剪下的头型,再次面世。
当然,老公也保住了他的耳朵,

没有错,昨天吃了不健康的即食面,今天得和炖汤补一补。

10 November 2007, Saturday
All we do here is about food. We eat after we wake up, we eat before we go to bed. Today we woke up at 3.30pm. We slept in the morning 2.30am. So we had a 13 hours rest. Better than a baby isn't?
At 5pm, we reach Burwood, a station away from where we stay. We took some nice park photos, call our beloved parents while we admirinig the nice scenary in the park.
We had a good dinner at one of the corner Japanese Restaurant. The food was great, but not the 45minutes waiting time and the rude attitude attentant.
An uncle took a photo for us at the park, is definately a master copy, would like to share with you.
Lesson learnt is, bring our own tripod next time...

We had a very good dinner with cousin David and his family. He has the cutest and most adorable twins in the world, Oscar and Osmond. I always wonder what is the feeling of seeing someone who is so much like u not in the mirror but in real world.
1 November 2007, Thursday
Landed Sydney safely in the morning 9 plus. The weather is lovely, 20 degree celcius.
We started our 3months honeymoon with a superp long Woolworths shopping list. Look at the receipt, hehe....

家公家婆真好,载我们到机场。吃了一顿简单的晚餐,我们给彼此一个暖暖的拥抱后,就入闸了。
值得欣慰的是我们这趟坐商务舱。虽然是夜机,倒也休息得很好。

早上老公打来告诉我Australia ticket is issueing.我的心里难免有:“!X#¥%—##”的感觉。连我以前在新航也不如。这么匆忙的决定,而且是3个月。日常用品是不可能来得及买的。只能够收拾衣服而已。所幸现在是春入夏的季节,不然行李还真怕不够装!
只是我的心里还真得很不舍得父母。原本嫁到Jalan Ipoh是很靠近,但是现在却跟着老公到悉尼3个月。
舍不得...
亲爱的爹娘,请多珍重。
亲爱的弟弟,请代我好好照顾爸妈。
29 October 2007, Monday
已经是第n次了。老公的行程还是没有肯定。上个星期五说要去美国。今天早上说不必去。老公还没来得及定我们的蜜月地点,傍晚就接到通知说要去悉尼3个月。无论是美国还是澳洲,行李收拾了再说吧~

时间飞逝,不经不觉Sunarti已经在我家3年了。佣人起初来的日子都不太好过。她需要适应我们的起居饮食,我们也得配合他与上一任佣人的不一样。所以,Sunarti 最后的几个月我们好像一家人一样。因为她清楚知道我们要什么,不喜欢什么。即使不开口,一个小动作她就会贴心地为我们准备好。
今天中午送她离开时,我忍着没哭。
希望她已经回到她的家,一个真正属于她的家,更温暖的家。

I have heard of Kampung Kasippilay Tuesday Pasar Malam since quite sometimes ago. The precious part is it'll eventually rain on Tuesday evening. But it didn't rain today~ Perhaps that's because God knows the newly wed WKHSL have a date tonight to pasar malam?

Dearest cousin Serene was back here in KL just to attend our wedding. She has been superp helpful and supportive towards our wedding. We can't finish thanking her. Soon she'll be leaving KL and we have a simple farewell dinner for her tonight @ Setapak. The food was yummy and we had lots of fun!

16 October 2007, Tuesday
It started to rain at 2pm...
When we depart to tropicana from Jln Ipoh, the road outside Damansara Palace is flooded. Traffic was bad. We were really worried and thought the dinner would not be able to start before 9pm.
Alan and William, our emcees came ontime, we have a simple briefing. Accorind to William, it was still raining at 4.50pm. But later KH notice rain stopped at 5pm.
I proceed to makeup in the changing room.
When KinMun came in to say "hi" to me at 6.45pm, he said that quite a number of guests arrived. When I am ready with my makeup and go out with my reception dress at 7pm, I saw many guests queing to come up.
By 7.30pm, 60% o our guests are here;
By 7.45pm, 75% guests are here;
We decided to start at 8.15pm, dish presentation at 8.25pm.
Diana, the manager said we created a miracle. We didn't delay too much even though it is a weekday.
We would like to take this opportunity to once again thank to all guests who came in earlier. It's really our great honour to have you to share our special day.
Thank you!!

今天爸爸,妈妈,弟弟都陪我把“嫁妆“搬到康宏家。东西不多,就一个Samsonite硬壳型旅行箱。加一个BB盘,一个痰桶,一对喜灯。
当大日子渐近时,我越发感受到家人对我的疼爱。
爸爸,妈妈,弟弟,我爱你们。

We had a good day.

今天是我小学同学黄宗德的大喜日子。他的另一半是和我同年同月同日生的凯苓。现在我们是同年同月结婚。做宝宝的时候要约好吗?说不定宝宝同年同月同日出世哦!呵呵。
华人有习俗道结婚的那一个月不能出席婚礼,是“喜相冲”。对不起啊,在这个人可以上月球的时代,我们上个月和这个月经已先后参加3个婚宴了。
如果好朋友结婚,我们却不能出席,会很遗憾吧?
我们应该延续优良的传统习俗,而不是盲目的跟从。
以上所说纯碎个人愚见,并不代表任何官方立场,谨此声明。

爸爸妈妈很早醒了,那没关系。但连我也一道叫醒,就真是...
今天真的是姨妈姑姐聚一堂。家里热闹得很。
十点半,准新郎+男家亲戚+烧猪到。带来的礼品包装真美,准新郎说是我未来家婆下的心思。谢谢未来家婆。
仪式过后,我和父母开始今天的行程。父母认为亲戚的请柬应该等过了大礼后合嫁女饼一同送上,所以我们今天的行程一定很精彩。
中午十二点出发,从kalumpang外婆家,到大舅,二舅,三舅...七舅;然后是tanjung malim叔婆,表伯,表姑...
回到家,晚上八点半。
一个字,累。

Dream appear as dream, it's not going to happen...
A goodbye kiss to TOM collection dream wedding gown.
If you are not meant to be, you are not.
Something simple doesn't mean I am not blessed.
I am blessed because I am with you. :)

Those who don't, skip this journal will do.

We have heard so much people say "two become one", but today I wish I can "one become two".
It's my mum's Final Singing Contest and it's also my best friends Munwah&SheauChuin's wedding. And, both started at 7pm.
KangHong and me left right after my mum finished her song. We arrived the dinner venue at about eight.
Both of them are perfectly matching & lovey dovey. Their outfit make them look gorgeous and simply awesome!
Munwah, I hereby wish both of you 白头到老,永结同心 ^_^
20 Sep 2007, Thursday
Congrats Calvin, for getting a pretty, thoughtful, sweet, kind, generous and intelligent wifey Ivy...
I am so happy for both of them. Ivy shared their love stories with me bit here and there. It's really a blessing and glad they come to this day, when two become one. :)
Once again, congrats.

Our food tasting has been delayed again and again. Finally we had it yesterday. We were very please with the environment, food and service. Diana, the person in charge has been very helpful. We keep our finger cross that they will maintain the food standard on that BIG evening!
16 Sep 2007, Sunday
Perhaps we have another bridal studio to compare, perhaps Mon'Liza has set a benchmark too high for the competitors to reach. We are not very happy with Washington's service. We arranged the photos order for album. After the photos been delevoped and ready for album processin, they change the photos order without our permission, not even a call! The reason of they change it is they think the way they arrange is nicer. But, I thought paymaster have the last say???

We had a Malaysia style Bridal Shower today, or rather my own style... it's a meetup for most of the jeemuis... (as some of them still can't make it to attend, well, life is busy.)
And I name it Bridal Shower...*sigh*
Was suppose to be wild, fun and relax...
End up we had fun and relax, but not wild...
So, girls introducing themselves to each other, getting along well I can see, cause no people bother to talk to me anymore. They were busy talking to each other and I gotto be the photographer cause no guy is allowed to enter this hen's night.
But, I believe I have the most well behaved hen yesterday night... @_@"
No alcohol, no stripping, no smoking... we are good hen isn't?
7 Sep 2007, Friday
当那日子逼近的时候,请别一再提醒我们。因为我们...会很紧张。

I am not a person who love to complain (when the situation allow). And I am a person who love to give compliment.
A credit note given to LH Creative Concept for their effectiveness and efficiency.
From card design - printing layout - printing process - ready for collection, all they need is 4 working days.
And the girls are pretty, kind and patient! Lynn, SinYee, Ms.Ho, thank you for your help! Mr.Lee, the boss is too lucky to have the three of you to help him out.
We printed these extra 100 copies for those who are invited not only to the wedding dinner but also the church ceremony.
LH, good work!! Keep it up!

Friends ask me, why I didn't update the website lately? Where have I been? Onleave again?...
No... I am sick...

Priscilla Heong reply:
My dearest one and only buddy, when Mr.Wong told me that you wrote about me in your blog, I was confused. Since when my buddy own a blog and I never get inform? How can!! Then he print out the whole thing for me from his office since I was out and I couldn't wait to read what have you wrote abt me...
When I read, the Valentine's day part, sooooo romantic.... your story line make me feel that if you are a guy, now I am suppose to get marry with you, cause I am the girl you want to meet... and you see me from thousand girls... soooooo romantic right?! But u know what, I actually noticed you that day too!! I was mumbling in my heart saying:" Aiyo, what this pretty girl doing here, she sure got in one, no need to interview anymore la, should straightaway go home." Cause that time you look superb demeon, professional, elegent. ^_^
Then we come to Singapore, not together in a way, together in a way. Not together as in we took different flight, you from penang I from KL. together as in, training centre put two of us not only in one class, BUT in BUDDY SYSTEM! I believe this is called fated. We had our probation together, flying together to most of the places. We been in the same team, we even slept in a same room during our SNY flights. I swear, you are the only SIA girl I slept with throughout my flying career. my ONE and ONLY ONE. *o*
Well, when I quit SQ, you are one of the girls who I don't want to leave. Although we don't meet as frequent as we started flying, but there're lots of things and little secret between two of us to share during our buddies time.
Cass, I very much hope that as you found your man in life, both of you will treasure each other, love each other, care each other, be honest to each other, be loyal to each other, till end of the day, with no regret.
As my wedding date is getting closer, I would like to send my most sincere invite to you, my buddy, to attend our wedding ceremony and banquet, together with your love one, Paragone, the luckiest man in this world.
I love you buddy, stay pretty and happy always!
Miss you!! Muacks!!!!!!!!!!!!

We visited a mini bridal fair at Equatorial Hotel last month and KH had a conversation with one of the invited vendor Alan Wong. He was impressed by his presentation.
After hosting in more than 400 wedding events, Alan is very professional and he has whole set of info that needed for a prefect wedding. He knows what works and what doesn't in a wedding. He knows exactly what sort of ideas about how to run it. He contributed lots of suggestion to us. He lead us from A to Z and everything has turn to simple and easy with his clear explanation and helpful tips.
Although we have not work with him before, but with the pleasant conversation and all the testimonials from his website. We are very confident that he'll be able to make our event a very interesting one with lots of fun and laughter for everyone there on that evening.
We feel very contented after we met up with Alan, because we know we have found the right person to arrange and co-ordinate our Wedding banquet. We can enjoy and have fun on that evening!! Hurray!!

今天是我们婚前辅导的最后一堂课。
来到第四堂课,回想起第1课时的blur blur,至少我们在过去三堂课中brainstorm了自己,正面地面对了婚姻的真正意义与挑战。
虽然,这样的一个辅导课程不至于保障我们的婚姻会一帆风顺,不过至少我们会尽量地实践我们在过程中所学习到的在我们的婚姻中。
不断的包容,包容,再包容是很重要的。如果你已经决定,认定,这个就是你下半辈子会共同度过的另一半,那你必须接受一个事实:他(或她)是合你不一样的个体。必定有许多的磨察,需要日子有功来白头到老。
愿天下有情人终成眷属。^_^
19 Aug 2007, Sunday
爱情的期盼,婚姻是下一步要走的路。
婚姻是完整人生不断的追求。
人若践踏婚姻= 人践踏自己的生命
痛苦,要与另一半分担;
好处,要与另一半分享;
难处,要与另一半分忧。
婚姻内容是自己填进去的。婚姻超越文化,不一定要在固定的形式下展现。
老实说,老师分享太多了,我抄不来...就这样吧。
与大家共勉之。
Will be leaving this website for 4days...miss ya...
15 Aug 2007, Wednesday
完了~婚姻到底是什么?当我看到这份功课的时候,有许多许多空位等着我们填上,我的第一反应便是:完了。
不知道掉了多少根头发,抓了多少次头...功课总算马马虎虎完成了。就在我们去“假假渡蜜月”的那一个早上,我法律上的夫婿交上去了。好,可以放假去!
13 Aug 2007, Monday
It must be kidding... I thought I wrote the journal of 2months 2weeks 2days not long ago... it is definately less than 2weeks! Why do we left with 2months 2days now? I can't believe it... there must be something wrong in the middle. Who have steel the time from us?
Okay, 2more months to go. What to be done? Most are done, except we have not decide on the dinner deco, have not discuss about the banquet flow, have not even draft out the church deco, have not decide whether to engage Allan Wong to be our emcee and coordinator, have not arrange time to distribute wedding invitation cards, have not finish updating this website, have not finish our PMC, have not this have not that...
WOW!!! Seems like we have done nothing so far is it?!?!
Wedding just have too much to be done... but we are enjoying the process as much as we can. Now that we have 2 more months to go, we truly treasure this precious period as it is once in our life time. Everyday is a special day, because GOD give it to us, we have to live with greatful and joyful heart.
- Amen -

今天天气晴朗。我很早就起床了。做了一个body scrub,松弛一下。今天将会很美好。
8点半,化妆师准时抵达。我开始扮美美了!九点,摄影师也到了。大家都分工合作,尽守工作岗位。九点半,康宏提着手花到了。哗!手花很漂亮!谢谢爱人...
Meoki在康宏的头上下了一番功夫。但是坦白说,不是很让人满意。怎么说还是Washington给他做过的造型最最最最帅!!!看过的人都赞他有日韩的味道!
看一看时间,我们迟了。赶紧出门。世事就是这样,你越是赶时间吗?它越塞车。
还幸今天的注册官(苏志鸿先生)实在好人,等了我们十分钟。一票人马进去注册室。康宏一定很喜欢里面的装饰,红彤彤地,非常符合他的China man taste。
苏先生有条不紊地读出婚姻条约。我们在适当的时候说了:“我愿意。"然后就听到不懂什么犯什么就得罚款三万!哗~~~哄堂一笑。
就这样,我们在法律上成了夫妻。
完整婚姻三部曲:合法,合理,合义。今天我们完成了合理这部分。剩下的我们十月再续。
6 Aug 2007, Monday
今天凌晨4点才睡着,7点半就醒了。因为今天我要去政府部门~JPN 做 IC。昨天的事情好像过了很久,已经开始模糊了。
话说,Mabel和我到1U去逛街。在Lovely Lace时我发现钱包不在了,心里冷了一下,赶紧到前一站Dorothy Perkins询问。结果,现实是叫人失望的...
只是我必须提的一点是,Lovely Lace的店员很热心,他们透过CCTV察看从我踏进Lovely Lace 倒我离开的那一段时间并没有人从身边走过,店内也没有我钱包的踪影。而我本身也确定在Forever21时钱包跟身。所以Dorothy Perkins是唯一的可能性。可是他们并没有CCTV可以翻看。
我不太明白,一个国际品牌,店里怎会没有CCTV?

这堂课比第一堂还要难。摘下了几项要点:
(一)态度比技巧更重要
(二)聆听比诉说更重要
(三)感受比思想更难掌握
(四)时间的适当比长度更重要
(五)行动比言语更重要
(六)尽量避免代替对方发言
(七)尽量全面地表白自己
(八)欣赏与责备同样重要
(九)不凡旧账,不揭疮疤
(十)不可含怒到日落
(十一)先认自己的错
与大家共勉之

Many many thanks to our brother in Christ, being willing to be our emcee during our wedding dinner. We have seen his outstanding way of leading the crowd back in June during our ChongHwa gathering.
Knowing that he is very tight with his schedule and yet willing to spare some time for us, we truly appreciate his help.
May God bless you William, always. :)
With a greatful heart, we got our Wedding Dinner Invitation card in perfect condition today evening. we have amened many times due to the wording arrangement and font type. And Penny from RedCard has dealt with us very patiently. Although we been told to wait for atleast ten working days, but we have got our card ready in a week time! Without wasting another second, I wrote Penny a Thank you card. Thank you Penny!

Today is our 2months 2weeks 2days to our wedding date. I read a meaningful sentence from my buddy's website. It says: "婚姻,是两个人的事; 婚礼,却是几百人的事,愿大家,共勉之。"
It's so meaningful that I actually spent couple of minutes to think of that phrase before I fall asleep after that...

这实在是太不可思议了。从几时开始可以用中文打字,我怎么这么迟钝?能够以母语来表达心中的日夜实在是太棒了!
I have alot to day abt today...
We created another miracle. We bought our flower girls' dress way below our budget. We got very good deal, in Sungai Wang again!!!
So, is page boy the next? I have no confident to make another miracle for pageboy's tux, I am sure it would be quite expensive. But will see...
So, it comes to the 主角 for today. We always have a dream to have our name embossed on our wedding band... but none of the jewerlly shop do it, except one in town. After seeing the design, we love it! But, we don't love the price AT ALL!! It's too much to spend over RM10k for two platinum rings without diamond, isn't?
So, we gotto compromise to our second dream ring, which we saw once at BU, but my size is not available. Order can be made, but gotto wait very long, and our ROM is just around the corner. sad...
But today, we saw the exactly same design in Sungai Wang. My ring size is avaiable!!! wait!Kanghong's is not....well, seems like we gotto go BU to get kanghong's size.
Alright, afterall, the good news is, our wedding band is ready!!! And we love it so much. Although we have got two boxes for the rings, but kanghong insist to squeeze them into one box, cause they are meant to be a pair.. sweet isn't? ^_^
I am sooo happy today. Two big task done!
We have been working on the layout, font and design of our wedding invitation card for ages. And finally, today, at 4pm, we confirm the artwork and it's now ready to print! The person in charge, Penny is a very nice lady that have been very helpful these days. We will get the card ready in 10working days! So we have one more task done by now. So happy!!
23 July 2007, Monday
Looks like Cindy and me had a good shopping time in Sungai Wang today. She loves the 3inches "f**k me" heels (this is the name she gave to the heels) and I got my two bridesmaids' gown. For me, the gown is really a good deal! It's within my budget and now I should start to look for our flower girl dress... Wedding is bad for my bank saving account but good for the economy...
22 July 2007, Sunday
What is PMC? guess...
We had our first PMC today. Many questions we did not know how to answer.
(1) Wnat is marriage?
(2) What make you think your are ready to get married?
(3) What is your role in a marriage?
(4) What do you expect from marriage?
ooo... it's sooooo tough...

This time Washington Portrait took 100+ shots for us ONLY...
Perhaps we have been well trained in photo choosing. The whole process of choosing 40photos out of 100+ took us less than 2hours, included deciding which photos to be put in big&small album, which photo to be enlarge etc...
The overall experience with Washington Portrait is good. The only thing is their touchup time needed way longer than Mon'Liza. We can only view our touch-up photos 6weeks later... Make me wonder.. do we have that much "imperfect" to touch up? ...
18 July 2007, Wednesday
Today, we had our second pre-wedding photo at Uluyam. It was quite fun in the begining. Until we reach the last spot, we accidentally step on ants net. In less than a second time, I can feel my foot are bitten by something, and it's very very very painful!! I scream and jump and almost cried. This is an awful experience. I can't understand how could those "Fear Factor"'s participants can stand these feeling.
16 July 2007, Monday
I can't believe Mon'Liza has more than 1000gowns... and this is my x time going there for gown fitting... I started to act like a part time there. Carmen asked me to help myself with the gowns. people just get surprised how could I manage to wear gown on my own, without any helping hand from them, no matter what gown it is... i guess, it's bcause I have 4hands? two in front and two at the back. hahaha....
well, it's not funny when come to gown choosing. I have got my BIG day Wedding gown from TOM, that is for sure. So right now I am getting the one from Mon'Liza for my ROM. I need to find one that is really simple. If not people will sure feel I am over "kua jiong"... just a ROM...
15 July 2007, Sunday
Had meeting with the church wedding team today, to discuss about the flow, food, decoration and helpers list. There're so much to be done. Thank God we have wedding team to help us out with all the details. As the date is getting closer, task needed to be done getiing more and more. I need 48hours a day, may I?
11 July 2007, Wednesday
Now that I understand why this man doesn't allow me to post the photos online first. He wants to have "story line" for the pre-wedding shots...

Excited!! The 44touched-up copies are up!! We have the soft copies in CD-R. can't stop viewing them again and again... I guess one of the most wonderful gifts from IT is the touch-up results to the wedding photos. Unfortunately, I only got permission to share limited of the photos as my Mr.Groom has his "own reason" to share it later. Don't know what other people feel when they view our pre-wedding photos? I always feel "wuaahhhh" "wow" when i view people's pre-wedding photos... I am bit worried our photos only get a "ooo" when we share it... *sigh*

Carmen called this noon time and bring the good news to say our touched up wedding photos are ready to view. Together kanghong and me make an appoinment at 3.30pm to view the photos. The photos are not flawless yet but their service is great. I realize it needs plenty of patience and generousity to handle many possible nusty and demanding customers. Especially when it comes to wedding photos, "ONCE IN A LIFE TIME". We always think we want "perfect". But sad to know that the "perfect toucedup photos" in the end will be hidden underneath the bed after the wedding. *sigh*

Weng called to have dinner together. After the dinner at "Sai Kong", we go to the Curve for a walk. Good that Carnival Sales started early this year, we got our wedding bedsheet from Aussino. It's soooo cute that we both say "SET!" together! And it was Puiyuh who found that "inspire" corner. Thanks to her!

11th August? 15th September? We are looking for the most appropriate timing for the registration of marriage. I guess he prefers 11th August so that his sister can come to attend. Me personally prefer 15th September as it is exactly one month before our Actual Day Wedding. Well, finally, the man decided 11th August. So we have another "click" in the wedding tasks. Good work!

It's time to prepare our red bomb to relatives and friends. How I wish I can share the design we chosen here, but the groom-to-be disagree as he thinks should keep it as "locked-image" until we start to send out our red bomb. So that people won't have a feeling of " ooo, I have seen your invitation card in ur website."
So... shall wait yea... anyway, it is not a special design, it is a very simple card, very very simple card....
23 June 2007, Saturday
Today, we proceed with our second round photo choosing. Thsnks to our friends Weng, Puiyuh, monitor, Kim, Linda... we left 250 in hand.
After spending a total of 5 hours in front of the pc, we finally chosen 42...We would definately love to have them all, but our budget doesn't allow us to. Carmen said the touched up photo will be available in 3 weeks time. So, it is 14th July! Will update this website once it's done! can't wait to share... our superstar photos... we think only... haha...
18 June 2007, Monday
Our pretty Mon'Liza sales assistant Carmen called to make an appointment for our wedding photos choosing on 18th June, 6PM. Together we have Weng, PuiYuh, KaiThung, Kimmy and Linda with us.
We were 45minutes late. So we started at 6.45PM. Carmen told us the total number of photos we have, 553!!!!!! The first thing come into my mind was, Michael is too busy last week to filter those photos that are not nice. But I thought he is the chief photographer of Mon'Liza? He should be professional enough to cut down the amount of photos and only show us those that are nice?
Well, we sat there and started to browse through one by one...
Although not all of them are nice, but I must admit most of them are acceptable. so we are not in dilenma! Our photos entitlement is 42poses. And now we have 553 photos! Meaning to say we can choose less than 10% only...
However, with our dear friends around, we managed to filter out 300 over photos. And we still have 250photos in hand. We need to come back another time as they closes at 9pm.
I don't know is this a norm case but so far no people have got 500+ over shots for one day photo shooting. Am I suppose to be happy cause we have so many beautiful photos? Or I should start to worry cause I might end up top up a lot to get those photos?

I woke up 7am today. Did a scrub while taking shower, washed my hair. 9AM sharp Kang Hong arrived and we started our day at 9.30AM, SS2 Mon'Liza.
One, the makeup artist did a simple makeup for me. We then waited for awhile for our photographer of the day, Michael, heard that he's the chief photographer of Mon'Liza. Heard from my sales assistant that his skill is good, but can be demanding in couple posing.
11AM, we depart to Taman Tun. I pray hard that dear Mr.sun will hide for an hour or two during our photo shooting. The weather was very good, not too sunny. However, when came to the last spot, the sunshine is too bright. We can't really open our eyes...
We were back to Mon'Liza at around 12.30PM. According to Michael, we are normal customers. Those who can't meet his standard ever took outdoor photo shooting more than 2hours! we took roughly 1hour, so we are consider normal.... we passed.
Started our indoor photo shooting right after One did the second image for me. KangHong changed into his handsome ivory color coat too!
Was bit dissapointed with their tailoring. They said after resizing the gown will fit perfectly nice, is not true...it's still loose...i didn't loose weight but their tailor is just not very good.
After 3 wedding gowns, we finally get to have our Brunch at 4PM. It's 4PM!!! KangHong and me were really starving...
Followed by 2 evening gowns and two more costumes. Michael left the costume session to his assistant, Ben. I must say the costume shooting session isn't as fun as the wedding and evening gowns shooting. Probably we are both exhausted or the photographer is not a professional yet? We have to pose and hold for more than 5seconds each pose in order for Ben to capture the angle he wants.
When we finished the last photo, it was 9.30PM. I arrived my home at 10PM. it's a 13hours for me and is 14hours for KangHong!
Overall we enjoyed it much, though is superb tiring...
I felt myself has done a 13hours London day flight non-stop! And this is only our Part 1....

I am so glad and thankful that James&Vernis have made a big effort to come all the way from PJ to my church in Kepong. They gave us useful advice on the church deco, teach us how to save cost and more importantly they help us to save too!
We then further discussed on the dinner venue decoration for Tropicana ballroom. It was a pleasant conversation. Thank you to both of them.
8 June 2007, Friday
KangHong is finally back this morning. Guess many stuffs can be done soon. Looks like the schedule is really tight now... means I have less time for this website soon...*sigh*...
Now then I am so glad I have read lots of wedding info last year when helping KangHong sister in her wedding. It's never too early to prepare. this is a really true statement! you will never regret you have read so much, see so much, hear so much. For so much that I have read, see and hear, now I roughly know what can let go and what is needed. ^_^
To all bride-to-be, happy wedding prep! let's keep our chin-up during preparation.
Darling, welcome back to KL again, so glad to have you back. Let's gambatte together for our work! :D

Serene, our wedding stylist consultant is back for a week. She brought back a few wedding favors for me. They are simply awesome! I really love all of them!! Each favors consist of 5 candy, symbolize health, wealth, happiness, fertility, and longevity.
We wish to give out this beautiful favors to all of our guests.
But at the same time we do not want Serene to over work. She is busy with her new job too!
No matter how many favors we will get from her when the day come, I would like to thank her for all the effort she has made. Serene, we love you. Thank you. Muacks!

Life been really busy these two months... After came back from Singapore, I get to have a CNY break, then started to work for TC hardware, my parents' business. Everyday is a routine, including Sunday. Plus KangHong is not around, sometimes I do feel like I am back to single again. Isn't it nice to have a chance to live as a single for 3monthgs before get tied down for the rest of my life? Sometimes I miss SIA, especially when my buddy FeeChin told me they are getting 7months bonus!!!!!RM23K!!
Well, money can't buy time. My beautician said my eyebags have improved alot, probably due to my 7-8hours a day of rest. That's what RM20k can't buy... (trying hard to console myself)...
KangHong had not fix his date back to KL yet.. probably mid-June? I will be taking the bridal studio alone if he comes back after 12th June, then will just paste his head in all the wedding photo album. that'll look very creative... but it's just a silly idea of mine. No matter how, gotto wait for him... I hope I won't get too plum by the time we take wedding photo.
I have actually forgot about this website for the past one month. And when I browse this website, I was shocked taht the wedding date had become 150days+~ time really flies huh!
have updated some of the latest info escpecially our vendors and wedding team. Also shortened our love story. I guess many ppl fall asleep when they read it? haaa...
well, I need a bed now... let's talk more next time..
last but not least, darling, i miss you. good night kiss...

Have done my gown fitting today, with the absence of KH but presence of my dear cousin Cindy. Thanks Cindy for giving me accompany from noon time till evening. The whole process was fun! There are more than 500 gowns in the bridal shop I guess? And I can only choose 4 for the photoshooting.... is rIdIcUlOuS! well, I still manage to shortlist shortlist and shortlist in the end... hehe...

KangHong left to Sydney for three months this early morning. We managed to get the venue for wedding banquet, wedding day photographer, date for gown fitting, date to take bridal photo shooting before he left. It's going to be a long 3months for both of us. Work occupied most of our time, we only have time to chat over the phone once or twice a week. However, somehow distance make us feel the love to each other stronger.
7 Mar 2007, Wednesday
Without having to run around in Klang Valley area, we manage to get a decent banquet venue. Spring Garden is the first venue we visited, and we decided to book the grandballroom and restraurant area for the wedding banquet. Diana, the manager make the menu more flexible for us to swop the dishes we wish to get from the other menu from different price range. With the first impression we had, and many times of phone conversations, we believe Spring Garden and Diana will deliver the quality of food and service that everyone looking for! Thanks Diana! ^_^

Photographer play an important role in a wedding as he/she captures the most important and memorable moment of a couple. We have sent out a number of inquiry to photographers for their quotation on wedding day photography. Weng is one of our short-listed one. Besides reply to our email, he invited us to the MidValley Bridal Fair too. At Boot3030, where we met him, and his lovely wifey, we delightfully made our down payment. Both of them are very very nice and friendly person to talk to. We are glad to have him. Weng, welcome to WKHSL wedding team! Look forward your great job!
31 Dec 2006/ 1 Jan 2007, Sunday/Monday
It was great to have a bunch of close family members and friends to celebrate this special day with us. Was regreted much that we didn't take much photos as we were too much into chatting and singing k. However, thank you to dear uncle, aunty, cousin Andrew and family, Dorothy, Kevin, Dianne, Steven, Yvone, Alvin, Mabel, Yao Wen, Jian Feng and gf. Of course, we also appreciate friends who can't attend but do send us sms or even give us a call to wish us. Happy New Year to all of you and may us have a MARVELOUS 2007!!
11 Dec 2006, Monday
Today is the "full month" of our website launching. We have total of 410 visits and 5436 page views to our website. Darling has sent a "Thank you e-card" to relatives and friends who have signed our guestbook. Thanks to 41guests' messages. They meant so much to us and brought us upmost happiness everytime when we read them. We deeply hope relatives and friends could leave us a word or two. We feel warmth with all the wishes and love from you all. Once again, THANK YOU!!

Now we learnt it is not easy to please everybody, to make everyone happy. One side of our parents don't wish us to rush the ROM just for the matter of enjoying SIA welfare (getting free ticket + 1week matrimonial pay leave). So now we will not Register as we planned initially. We will still hold an engaagement party as planned, and wait till I quit SIA next year then we will plan further. However, if we think further ahead, it's actually a good news! Because we can plan for a better and merrier ROM, e.g. what to wear, who to invite, where to eat to celebrate after the ceremony etc... isn't true? So, we are still happy and looking forward~!
11 Nov 2006, Saturday
Darling and me decided to launch our website today. We have been working on this website since September. We will update more information from time to time. Serene suggested me to upload more photos, I am just afraid that people might be bored with them, because we have tooooooooo many photos! We both are so happy with the positive feedback from relatives and friends. Darling and me celebrate today with Japanese lunch. We are very happy!! We hope that everyone who visit the website will like it too!

Touch down from Germany this morning, after took 1 hour nap in Singapore, I fly back to KL. Darling took half day leave to pick me up and we go to Putrajaya with ROM mission. Found out that this place is really far. End up we only take the application form. Being a filial son, darling doesn't want our parents to travel so far to witness our ROM. So we will consider another location. After Putrajaya, we went to Cheras Ue3's HM Brides boutique. They sell lots of different designs and color of gowns, with very reasonable price. Darling and me tried out a few. Please visit "Photo Galleries" if you would love to see how's the outcome. Do give us some feedback if you wish so.

My parents just got back from China-9zai gou. Darling is so amaze by the scenic view over there. On the same day, darling suggests to go Uluyam for a short city break. I think he is trying to find out whether UluYam is suitable for outdoor wedding photo shooting. This place is nice, and quiet, also at the same time, not very clean. However, if darling really love this place, we would have some outdoor photo here.
16-23 Oct 2006, Monday-Monday
Given a chance to have a flight to HongKong, even though it is a bit too early, but I still decided to visit this Golden plaza that sell all the wedding accesories thingys. Finally, with a very reasonable price, I got a golden and silver thread (the so called best quality kua compare to beads kua).

After we had dinner with family, we rush to this expo. As the expo eneded at 9pm, and the time we arrived is 8.30pm, we didn't expect to signup package. But, out of our expectation, in less than 30minutes time, we signed up Mon'Liza as our bridal shop. Darling loves their photo shooting skill and I think they have lots of gown design. So here goes we started the wedding prep journey, 5days after darling's proposal on 19th sep.
