sister's wedding
After coming back from my trip, the next big thing was my second sis wedding.
It was held on her birthday as well and although I don't have to do much, I'm still so nervous that I couldn't sleep the night before.
The day before her wedding...
Collect the dress at "the aisle" with my third sis.
Picked up by J.
Rivervale plaza for hair treatment.
It was the first time I tried treatment with the steaming thingy.
It wasn't hot as I expected and the duration was shorter than I expected.
I prefer the one at kovan but I tried different treatment anyway. haha.
ohh but the hair tonic she sprayed was awesome, it left a cooling sensation on my scalp.
Home.
Bishan for pastamania.
Sin Ming Road for car wash.
haha I really wished to go those car wash you see on television commercial.
Those that the driver drives in the car, and the machine will wash it for you.
It was until that day then I realised that Singapore no longer has that I think ):
I always dreamt of going through the machine since young!
But the people at Sin Ming Road are nice.
And then went to buy drinks for the actual day.
And after a long night of insomia.
Woke up at 6am : The photographer, videographer and make up artist arrived!
(Reminds me of my da jie's wedding.. the same early morning and everything seems different, I guess that's because we seldom have visitors that early!)
630am: The bridesmaids came and they started preparing for the gatecrash.
belacan chilli, bread, wasabi, soyasauce, hershey's chocolate sauce...
and loads of props.
J came with the breakfast. I'm so nervous that I can't eat haha (But I looked super calm ok)
J left to pick some of my relatives.
Relatives and J came. The flower boy and girl came to open the car door.
700am: Groom's car arrives.
The games begin. The weird drink haha didn't see the ingredients. They mixed loads of stuff.
The bread which looks super sweet, heart shaped formed using the chilli and mixed sauces.
And then they opened the door for him.
The second door was the room door. And he had to dance "nobody" while wearing all the princessy accessories. haha.
And then the vows.
*privacy***
And then they went to the groom's house.
We thought we could take a break.. but no ): got to make up, and get to the hotel by 9am.
I looked so bloated and weird that day ):
(haha ok it's not my wedding, but still I looked funny ): )
ROM. The person, I forgot what's that called was really really nice.
He told them many wise words.
"never ask the other how much they love you, ask yourself how much care and concern you have given him/her"
"communication is key and it works 24/7..."
Thanks for making the event great, sir (:
He even made sure the photographers were able to take nice pictures!
Oh before the ROM I was having stomachache!
K after ROM we went for a short break.
The break brought me back to reality.
I just don't know how to talk to my relatives. And as time goes by, it sort of becomes a habit.
So, always remember that opportunity doesn't knock twice.
When you have that choice to make a relationship works, do it well (:
They are great people but I guess I need to learn..
Back for tea ceremony.
And then off to prepare for the lunch.
Ah!! Here my job officially starts.
I'm part of the reception for the female side.
I know I'm weird to be nervous about this but I still am =.=
It was fun yeah but we got to understand that sometimes nothing can be perfect.
haha my relatives sure are master of "flexibility" and I kinda like it and have more to learn from them.
......
ok my toe nails are dry!
goodnight!

BKK
Our BKK trip has just ended!
It was a great trip though I can't remember much of it.
As always, memories may fade, but the feeling remains.
The trip to BKK has reminded me of my fondness for thailand.
The trip to BKK has reminded me of my fondness for thailand.
I love the people there who are always so full of smiles.
This time round, we went back to citin pratunum to stay, it isn't exactly the same as the previous time but I still love this hotel for it's service and location.
We didn't try alot of their streetstall food as well except for my favorite durian <3
Their durian is quite different from what we normally see in Singapore.
Their's is much bigger and you need a big knife to cut open it (even after cutting open the outer spikey cover) to see its flesh.
Even its flesh is different. The ones I tasted often has 2 texture in just one durian. You can taste the sweet and soft part and then there is always this white part which is abit bitter and hard.
Ok enough about durians haha
Some pictures taken from chelle's camera. My memory card not with me haha
We took the city rail way link there! Fast and efficient. It is only about a year old!
Day One:
Fast forward to Day 3:
We bought this beloved wallet each :D
From this Sinagpore look alike flea. But the things there are awesome!
Loads of cute accessories and artwork!

A matter of choice
Everyone has a choice in life.
It may be fated and "choice-less" that you happened in the same class as this particular person, it may be fated that you met this person on the streets.
Natural disasters, death, birth, sickness, well all these might be fated.
But I do believe that besides all these, everyone has a choice in life.
You might be in the same school and class as A but your choice lies in whether you want to make that friendship.
You can choose to walk up to him/her and yep, you make a new friend.
Or if you are the person, you can also reject a friendship.
Besides all the unplanned and unforeseen circumstances, we have a choice.
That is why we humans make plans everyday.
We schedule who to meet everyday, what to do everyday etc etc.
And noone and nothing (of course there are exceptions) can force you to make alternate choices if you really wanted something hard enough.
So, stop the pin pointing game because we all make choices in life. At least, we made decisions that changed little things in life.
I am at fault with the negative things in life too.
When I have the choice to make friends, I chose to stay away instead.
When I have the choice to speak up, I chose to listen instead.
When I have the choice to reject, I accepted with a risk.
Many a times we wouldn't know when and whether we made the correct choice.
But the bottomline is, we made that choice.

Hi July ...
Ok it's july which means the start of BOSS bidding.
Window 1 ends on 5July but I have not even confirmed my modules yet.
I do not know what I want to be in the future.
Teacher?
Economist? I think I'm not up to it.
Risk analyst? same as above
Where else can I work at?
I can't even decide on this let alone my second major. Maybe it is this attitude of mine which makes me often adopt a "take a step at a time" approach.
I'm a pro at this seriously, I'm just going to take all the compulsory mods and after I really am left with no choice I shall decide which second major to go.
And with bidding often comes this dilemma, to go with friends or alone?
Both has its own pros and cons.
Go with friends
- Comfort zone
- Possible project mates to be and smoother projects
- 15mins breaktime khakis
- homework/enquiries and help
Alone
- Step out of comfort zone
- Own time own target
Ok I give up about rattling on about boss.
Anyway, holidays are still great <3 (minus away the bidding)
Recap of June:
Came back from Vietnam :')
New job working for lao ban niang.
Our dear Alex went for his army life.
Flea day with 38s and J and a super stomachache ):
Found a new interest but lack of resources and times (ok excuses I know)
Relax and chill
Grace 5 outing
running and swimming
stomachache again ):
See our dear Alex booked out twice.
chill and chill.
Ok basically I didn't achieve anything much but hey I'm trying.
And seriously I'm terrified by my stomachache.
It woke me up again yesterday morning.
It was so pain that I couldn't get out of bed and see the bidding window opens.
Worse, it comes back every few hours. But luckily the pain subsides.
However, I can still feel it occasionally.
I'm really afraid to go to the doctors and I hope everything will be fine tomorrow.
Ok, if everything is fine, plans for July:
First week
2July: Sentosa with Horizon
3July: Confim by bids
5July: Boss 1 closes.
- BKK trip!!! I hope I am able to make it both financially, mentally, physically and time-wise.
Second week
Work work work
Prepare for my second marathon!
Third Week
Get prepared for my sister's wedding <3
Fourth week
Get ready for school.
The horrors of MC, AE, Micro, FT and my others unconfirmed bids.
Please let everyone around me including myself be blessed (':

I don't like it when people doubt my decisions.
When I ask for an opinion, it means I just needed your support or encouragement.
Today I did something wrong.
And it was wrong because I meant it. It was from my heart when I did it.
I really couldn't control myself.
At other times, I seriously mean it as a joke.
However, I'm still angry over the whole issue even though I knew I was wrong too.
I want to achieve something in life.
Well, everybody ( or almost ) wants it too, isn't it??
Sometimes, people really do need a big fall before they can really let go.
To reject them before they can even try is snatching away their hope and the opportunity for them to let go completely.
So next time before you throw people the cold water, do think twice.
Of course it doesn't mean that you should see your friends fall blindly, there got to be a way right?
ALL IMO only:
If it involves money, and you firmly think that it wouldn't work, list all the different reasons and help them prevent the pitfalls.
If it involves relationships, I believe time really heals everything. And as long as no lives or serious consequences are involved, let them go. It's their life.
*** *** ***
On a side note, yesterday's flea was a failure.
Only managed to get back the rental amount after selling all my favorites stuff at a super low price.
But I'm happy to see customers with a smile (:
Thank you 38s thank you xy's maid and ty j for making it happened!
School's starting real soon and bidding's coming friday.
Lets just hope that things go smoothly!
