i still hear the wedding bells...

ok. so i have some photos that i took at the wedding. funny how i took quite a number of photos but none of the bride n groom*. haha! (*ok.. i manage to steal some photos of my cousin n his bride from the groom's sister.. haha!!)

the wedding dinner was great except i wasn't feeling well. had a real bad headache from lack of sleep and puked n all. haha. but other than that, the wedding speech was good, the place looked nice. (it was at 4 seasons hotel).. and the food was pretty good too.. and the company was good. heee. overall, i had a good time. hhaa.. (so many "good"s..)


so here's the happy couple. my cousin is the guy.. winston. and the pretty lady is su. :) su wore this pretty red gown for the wedding dinner. i tot she looked really good. shall put the photo up when i get it! haha.


this is winston n elmo (the family dog) at their wedding photo shoot. hee. elmo has a bow tie!! elmo looks like an old man.. hee. in fact, he is very old already. think 77 in dog years..

that's me, my cute little cousin.. rem jet? he has hair now. and it's curly. veyr cute. and he's wearing a tux. he had a coat and a bow tie but he din wanna wear it. and on the right is my dad.

here comes the bride.

"here comes the bride,
here comes the bride,
here comes the bride with the big backside..."
and so nicholas sang as he saw winston and sue walk in..

today is my cousin's wedding.

it's amazing! he's the first of all my cousins to get married, signifying that my generation has reached the marriage age. eeks. isn't it scary? although now most of us are still in uni, soon we'll all be graduating n starting work and the next thing to look forward to would be our weddings.

still, i can't imagine. as i see my cousin and his bride dressed in bridal wear, i imagine myself in that situation.. and eeks. it's not a pretty sight. when will i start looking like a lady or a woman? when will i ever look ok in a wedding dress? i think that i still look too immature for a gown like that. sigh.

my cousin looked good today. and his bride was really pretty too. i must say they look good together. and it's a pity i don't really know her yet.

when i was in j1, i liked looking at bridal gowns. cuz they always look so pretty. and i tot i would want to get married early. before today, i was kinda sure i wanted to get married at 25 or 26. but today, i'm not so sure anymore. it seems too young.. it's crazy.

oh no! i jus realized that this means that i might be an aunt soon.. my gosh!! if my cousin has a kid, that makes me an aunt right? eeeeeeeks! i haven tot about that. woah. haha..

but i guess i'm happy for them. and i'm looking forward to the dinner later! heee. although i still haven found anything to wear. hahahaha...

are changes necessary?

it's been a week since it happened. till now, i have mixed feelings. "why did i do it?" "but it's good to have a change once in awhile right?" "it's not that bad..." hmmm. to those who haven seen me recently, shame on u and shame on me. haha. i jus curled my hair.

scroll down to see me with my new hairdo!!! heee.















my sis, sam and lionel thinks i look korean. hmm. so i was jus acting korean. haha. (dun u think my cheeks are damn fat? it's fats that i've gained from US. eeks.)


it's such a HUGE change for me. and i'm really not used to it. curling it made my hair really dry.. but then it's also good, even if i dun comb, it's ok. cuz it looks messy anyway. heh. somehow, i'm still thinking, would it have been better if i straightened it rather than have it curled? hmmm. maybe i'll try that the next time. it's kinda fun to try something new. and i have been trying more stuff since my sis came back from aussie. but i'm glad that it's all a gradual change. and so far, i would not say i really hate anything that i'ver tried. all's been good. heee.

on other news, i was looking for a notebook in my drawer the other day and came across my journal that i had while i was in CJ. was looking at the photos i took, and then i came across something else. something that i received from one of my odac friends when we were in JC. and i dunno if she remembers.. although it was a mass email if i dun rem wrongly, it had quite a big impact on me. and it was really comforting when i received that in my mail, jus that i never said anything about it.

"Your Mother is always with you. She's the whisper of the leaves as you walk down that street, she's the smell of bleach in your freshly laundered socks, she's the cool hand on your brow when you're not well.
Your Mother lives inside your laughter. And she's crytallized in every tear drop. She's the palce you came from, your first home; and she's the map you follow with every step you take. She's your first love and your first heartbreak, and nothing on earth can separate you...
Not time... Not space... Not even death."

hmm.. i think it's nice. and really touching. i guess alot of pple do take their moms for granted, me included. and i think it's really sad that that's the reality and that we really dun appreciate what we have till we lose it. oh well. i dunno what's m point in all these. but ya.. haha.. i jus tot i'll share this little poem thing that i found la. heee.

zhong qiu jie!!

friday was mid-autumn festival. usually, we celebrate every year. this year, it was more special cuz da jie is finally in singapore to celebrate with us. and lionel n sam too.. :)

but before looking at the photos, here are some exciting news at home. haha!


this is my new pillow. if u rem, i jus bought new pillows and new matress early this year. but then my dad decided to buy this.. the millennium pillow. it's damn ex. but then i dun like it. still using the older pillow. haha.. by right, u have to put ur head between the humps. haha!! but cuz i like to sleep on my back cuz of my backaches, my head will fall backwards. as u can see, the pillow slopes.. so i dun like it la. yong feng says it's more for side-sleepers. i guess so.... what a waste.


another something my dad bought. eye-massager with music.. haha.. it's so funny. i look like cyclops. and there are earphones connected to the thing and u can hear birds chirping and waterfalls and stuff. haha..


this is my sister and i at "the strip" doing pedicure. haha .. look at her reading magazine and drinking her latte.. i'm looking at that direction cuz the girl was massaging my feet and i was so tickled. haha...

at west coast park.. lionel n i (obviously). haha



my family.. a couple of my aunts and my uncle and my granny.. heee. notice i'm not there. and no, i'm not taking the photo. haha. poor lionel.. stuck there with my family. heh.. eating mooncakes and drinking tea.

there i am! haha. playing with fire at the playground. with my cousin, nicholas and my brother. i like this part of zhong qiu jie. burning lots of stuff , wasting candles, and burning leaves, paper, lanterns, tissue paper etc. haha.


my grandma with my hello kitty lantern. haha..


i asked my grandma to put the "peace" sign. heh..


alright. that's all for now folks. heh.. going to meet the work n travel pple later. weeee.. but i'm sleepy. it's my break week now.. and i really wanna have some fun. but at the back of my mind is work work n more work. haiz. studying in singapore is damn stressful ahhhhh...

my weekend of fun

on friday and saturday, lionel n i had to do survey work and this time it was at the airport. hee. was kinda fun cuz we had visitor's pass and could go into the depature hall.. hee. so we decided to act like we were tourists and took some pictures!


haha. we even asked a real tourist (think japanese) to help us take this. heee.



on saturday, after doing survey at the airport, i met karen n isabel and decided to go try out the new restaurant "new york new york" to relive some US memories. heee. the place is nice.. the food is quite good too. but then, not like they have alot of stuff from the US leh.. like sauces and all. tot we could have american sauces.. bleah.

that's karen, isabel and me! (from left to right).. posing with the menu. heh. ahhh.. new york..
on saturday night:
this is taken at home.. my atm bank was full so i had to take the coins out to count.


this is my brother's artwork. heee. the theme is society. i think he draws really well.. hee. proud of him.. weee.. if only i can draw too..
after seeing my brother draw and all, i decided to draw too! haha.. but then i only can draw a simple rainbow and it isn't even nice. but oh well. it was kinda fun playing with crayons n paint again.
on sunday, went to eleanor's birthday party (happy birthday eleanor!). was fun and was really really sweet. esp when ze bin sang for eleanor. ahhh.. i would cry.. it's so so so so so so sweeeet. hee. eleanor, ze bin is not bad to u la. haha. i think he put in alot of effort into this party. hope u enjoyed urself! (photos will be up when i get it!)

on a more random note, i came across these photos while i was finding advertisements for one of my classes. haha. tot they're quite interesting. heh. so yup.


so this is why dogs hate their owners. haha. but it's funny.



toilet theme restaurant. dunno where this is though. but look at what they are eating out of. haha. it's damn cute. i wanna visit this place!! i have a feeling it's in taiwan or in china!!


although i have alot more other random photos, i shall save them for another day! heee.
