Valerie's wedding 29 June 2013.

On this very special day on 29 June 2013, one of intimates was officially off the racks.
And i miraculously caught the bouquet. I will nv forget this special day. My lover gave me a bouquet.


It’s like the major event of the year for intimates. I swear. We were excited. Valerie's wedding marks the my first friend wedding that I attended. It used to be sharing the reunion of relatives who you hardly meet. HAHAHA.



From colour themes. To outfit. To accessories. We share her worries, difficulties and everything she faced while planning for her wedding. Its not easy.

Getting married is a big thing. Monetary issues are involved (A good budget is about $50k, including banquet), different ideas and the never ending plans for your big day just to ensure everything will flow smoothly. I can sense the stress.

It is your life’s biggest event. Probably due to the money involved too.

Everyone is contributing their so called ideas. You have to meet everyone’s expectations. You are able to differentiate your “Real” friends. You finally see friends who will willingly share their joy and happiness for you. They are those who make an effort to change their schedule just to celebrate your big day with you. Not easy.

With just a wedding, you are able to see a lot of things.

Food for thought: Sometimes I wonder why people join their souls tgt.

Is it because it is the next step in life? I am 26 yrs old. Its time. Get HDB liao, need to get married alr. Need the ROM certificate to get house keys.

Is it because its stress from family? Look!! Your cousin is married. When is your turn!!!!

Is it due to peer pressure? Shit, my friends are all married. What am I doing.

Is it because it is due to a shot gun marriage? OMG. My tummy is getting bigger. I need to get married.

Is it because you are getting too old? Oh no, I am 35 yrs old. Everyone is looking. I am still single.

HAHA. #justsaying #partialtruths

But most of the relationships I see now are genuine. They are happy. No partial truths or facing any of the above yet. I hope none of you ever do.



Marriage is the reunions of 2 parties with no hidden motives. It is the act of pure love, the need and necessity to spend the rest of your life with your partner. To begin a new life. To engage in a totally new relationship of husband and wife. From that day, you are no longer alone. You have someone from another universe, not related in blood, caring and loving for you.



I wonder when papa hand me over to XX, he will emo and cry a not. I am his precious little girl. Mama always say, "your papa dotes on you so much since young, it's almost ridiculous." HAHAH.


It’s the day your papa walk down the aisle with you, handing you to someone he trust will love you as much as he do. Awww. Its like, the man of your life for more than 20 yrs suddenly changed. Your papa handed you over to lead a brand new life.


To start a new beginning. I enjoy gg for weddings. To emerge in the atmosphere of pure joy, love and happiness. To witness their effort and planning for their big day. To see 2 couples happily tgt. What’s there not to love?

Valerie’s wedding is a success. She has set such high standards, its very stressful for the remaining intimates. HAHA.

I like how she put in effort to make it a personalized wedding, while trying to keep prices low yet keeping her ideas in mind. Its an art. Not easy.

I am ecstatic to see Valerie’s wedding which went through smoothly, happily married and enjoying her special status now. Its indescribable. It warms my heart to see people and friends I love leading a blissful life.



I am such a simple person. HAHA. You happy. I happy. What a simplified theory.

The rings that seal 2 individuals tgt. How sweet. It may just be an alloy of metals mixed tgt. But behind this chemistry lies significance meaning for both of them.

You belong to me today.


Then again, everyone is happy for Valerie. Truth friends are happy for one another. Pictures say a thousand words.



We had so much fun playing that morning. Making funny faces. Spamming the camera. Waiting anxiously.





This is what my buddy is good at. My buddy can make very nice plaits. Woots.

Thats me fooling around and taking everyone is action. Apparently only sister is camera sensitive. LOL. Rofl.


And its done in 10 mins.


Thanks to my very amazingly thick black hair, I can have pretty and chio fishtail plaits.

Its just a fun going with friends you love. To chat and gossip on nonsense.


Intimates FTW.


Only my sister entertains me. HAHAHA. I just take the camera and force everyone in. HAHA.


And MH is my braces buddy. I know we are still very chio. Thank you.


My task of the day: To ensure I don't get boomz enough to fall into the water. HAHAHA. Its a pool-side ROM. Else, the subject is gg to be meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee instead. Wrong focus.  Oh shit.


And the best thing of the day is to catch the bouquet!!! Veron is amazing! #proudofmyself

I did the bouquet proud. I didnt let it drop to the floor. There wasn't an epic moment of oops silence. The bouquet is not destroyed. Hooray!


I have to make sure I am the next one in line to get married after sis. HAHAHA. lol. XX, are you supposed to be stress or I am supposed to be stressed instead?

Sorry XX, thats a hint I need to get married soon. HAHAHA.


My bouquet is pretty.




Her theme: Green and blue.




Head home and rest before the wild night begins.  I attempted to make my angbao the most unique in the entire box. And, obviously. I did it. HAHA.

I sealed my ang bao with wax, embossed with love. I nv got so enthusiastic giving angbao before. Only for friends I love with all my heart.


And we will nv forget our OOTD. HAHA.

Well, we planned our outfits since a thousand yrs ago. Trying to adhere to her wedding theme colours.

Here's mine. Valerie gave me this dress to wear for her big day. I had strict instructions from the Bride to wear this dress for her banquet. HAHAHA.

Sexy peekaboo. Chio bu chio?!


I really enjoy us fooling around. One entire table of absolute fun. The fun factor just diminish by 50% when your table has some "foreigner" that you are not very close with. HAHA.











Its funny how we race against time to take pictures before the sun goes down. LOL. #thingsgirlsdo.


Tell me why is Valerie so chio?

I love our family picture. No outsiders, just intimates and their partners. heh.


Intimates have special seats. HAHAHA. We at the side of the aisle. So we have a clear view of the march in. HAHA. wee.



Say hello to my buddy. Everyone is jealous of our hair. HAHAH.

Things crazy ppl are capable of. HAHAHAHA.

29 June 2013 is such a happy day!!! No doubt, I think we easily made it to be the nosiest table. Then again, its only because there are no outsiders. HAHA.

Cant imagine the awkward situation of having someone we don know sharing a table w us. You feel the stress and pressure even to finish food. To take another slice of meat a not, but i am not sure if others want. Can i take another bowl? oh no. i am in a dilemma. ltr ppl thought i take their portion.
#truestory

I am not sure if anyone realised, my Valerie is having after-marriage-glow. It just shows on her face, everyone is jealous. HAHA.

I am so happy one of intimates is married. Year by year, lets hope we are on track to attend each another wedding ceremony.

Sis, you are next! (:
CANNOT WAIT.

Wootz. Its gg to be another night of absolute fun again. Intimates yearly event. LOL. HAHA.

Friends i love. Each one of us is different; Each have different problems, different characters, all working in different fields. Its been an amazing journey thus far.

My way of survival: Be true and honest; They reciprocate.
I am glad i have you all. heh. Thanks for reciprocating.
Thank you.

Life is colourful with intimates presence. Sense my joy and happiness as I am typing this post now.
Everyone deserves to be happy, to have a partner who we all love dearly and be surrounded by lovely ppl.
Happy to see you happily married, Valerie. Seeing you happy = Intimates' joy.

The last of CNY for a fabulous February.

I spent my last CNY feast over at yt house. As the last day of CNY, the 15th was spent in Hong Kong, so my last CNY feast is spent over at yt house.

Memorable a not! Like a family, spending quality time together. Being tgt means hours of non stop boomz, chatter, laughter and joy.

In life, we should all be contented for simple pleasures found in life. To be able to laugh, to be able to be surrounded by friends so dear to you. Life is perfect. In today's hectic lifestyle where everyone seem to distant from one other due to schedules and excuses, its a heart warming thought to know you have friends who will be there for you.

I am someone who count my blessings. HAHAHA. To be grateful for whatever I have today. They dont drop from the sky, its by sheer hard work, understanding and communication among both parties to keep the friendship gg. (and it applies to boy-girl relationships too!)

I am glad we are still as close as we first started.

Its a lace and crochet theme that night! (HOORAY!!!!) Everyone is dressed in sth lacey/crochet

Its a night full of massive photo taking of moving around the living room. GOTCHA, KODAK moments where only photos can revive the memories of all the fun we had. HAHAHA.


Take photos may seem boring, but its a v fun after dinner activity leh!
I like this photo! All full of smiles, everyone radiating with joy!


All the girls who is gg to conquer Hong Kong Standard Chartered Marathon 2013 tgt!!! (which we did alr!! say YEAH!)

Surprise of the night! Hello thetiramisuhero!


I find it novelty to be able to order the tiramisu cupcakes and customised it to our theme!

Its nice, but not as nice as I thought. Perhaps expectations were too high with all the raves and hype. HAHAHA. Given the price for the size, its a tad expensive though!

Apart from my sis yt, Gwen is my next running idol. Hers legs are god like. LOL. She run at the speed of light. No, i am not kidding.


Le sigh, thats my shimmery intimates. (minus Meiho cause she is the photographer. LOL!!!)
Its full attendance that day!!! 


Nvm, there are always Polaroids to look back on.




Nonsense that we do; Photobomb other ppl photo. LOL!!!Why are we so high that night. HAHAHA. I blame it on the food we eat. Too full, too full.






Of course, each photo taken means, at least 3-5 cameras around.

 1,2,3 Smile!!! Imagine it on repeat mode for 5 times. In the exact same position. Your legs are aching and your smile are no longer that natural.

So when we finally took all the required photos with the many cameras on standby that day, chaos emerged. HAHAHAHAHA. epic scene.



Its my favourite photo of the night! Its all abt being ever ready for photo taking.. HAHAHA.
 

CNY is officially over, I hope everyone have a big fat collection of ang bao! And since its over, it is now time to pay back the sin; all the extra calories and diet breaking with all the oily-fat-greasy food consumed must now be burnt off. The oh-so-delicious ba gua and calories filled pineapple tarts are now history.

Lets all work harder to shed all the extra weight gained away and the entire cycle of good food eating will be able to resume 365 days ltr. I cant wait for the next CNY alr! (Although i dread what is before that. LOL.)

So far, 2013 is nth short of awesome. It has brought many many good news since the beginning of the yr and I hope it will persist till the end of 2013!

Its my snakey yr! Lets hope everything will go well for the remaining 10 mths of the yr. Its not that long right! Its a right start and it shall all end right.
