In a way, im saving money... as i wun have the opportunity to shop, or even spend on food and drinks while at work... jus this one week at my new workplace, caused me to gain 1kg, which i haven figured out why... maybe becos i dun get to eat lunch outside, thus, not much of walking...
met up with ray and kelly on saturday, we finally decided to meet up at esplanade, ichiban boshi.. we ate quite alot of things... the total bill cost us about $97. when we first saw ray, it din feel like we have not met for long... it felt like we have already met yesterday... i think its good to feel that way... otherwise, we would feel like strangers instead...
this week din do much on preparing my wedding... jus looked up some make up artist's webby but haven come to a conclusion on who to use.. cos we saw one quite nice de... but on the singaporebrides forum, there were a number of ppl commenting about her being late and showing her attitude... thus, i was quite concerned... now still on a lookout for makeup artist and videographer...
hmmm... on sunday, i was packing my things, looking for things that i dun wan so that i can sell them off during the 13th oct lime bazaar... after that, suddenly felt like painting my living room's wall... thus, asked my brother to help out... then i was sweat, dizzy and tired while trying to tape the aircon, ceiling,etc before i start painting the wall... it took us about 2hours to paint one wall... all of us were sweating profusely, which i dunno why... we actually run out of paint when we were finishing soon.. the top part of the wall where the aircon is... we din paint as we thought that no one would be able to see it... but we were wrong... after washing the brushes, rollers, etc... when we are standing at the main door, we could obviously see that part which is supposed to be painted is not painted... haiz... no choice.. cos we seriously run out of paint...
next week, gonna meet up a videographer to see their works, gonna attend a wedding on sat and having fondue on sunday... as i bought the fondue fountain which i always wanted...
