Shoes! Shoes!

I had collected my Bridal Shoes finally! Isn't it pretty and sexy? Hehe... U might ask me how can a pair of covered toes shoes be sexy! Well, check my feet out when I wear it at my wedding!

These pair of shoes are a gift from dear fiance! Really thankful for him during this period of time! Unemployment and wedding preparation, such an untimely thing to happen! :)

Anyway, I will be going for a break to HK in mid May after my Civil Solemnisation. So, dear friends, please do not be worried for me! I have gone through so many things already during the past 6 months. I will pick myself up and I am very sure that I will find a better job and things will turn out for the best in these upcoming months!

My Grand Plan won't be called a GRAND one without all these hitches and hiccups occuring!

Have a good week ahead to my dear friends!

Unexpected!

It has been a long time since I had updated my blog...

So many things had happened during this period of time from my last update.

Starting with the awful news, I was being asked to resign voluntary. Yesterday was my last day at work after the Meeting with HR and the Witch. The Witch really deserved her nickname, and she s an Evil one too.... As much as I had prepared for myself for this to happen, it still chills me to the bone. Nevertheless, I m happy that I had been released from the abyss of misery! I was so miserable in the company, in fact, I m just waiting for the Witch to make the first move! In this battle with the Witch, I came out to be a big winner! I always believed what goes round, comes around.... To those idiots and nincompoop who had their share in my voluntary resignation, I am the WINNER! :)

I am thankful and grateful to my Fiance, my family and my friends that had given me all the support and courage for this experience. So now, I will be concentrating on the preparation for my Civil Solemnisation Ceremony on 29th April 2006! Yup, I m getting those pre-wedding jitters!

For this ceremony, we re holding it at Masonic Club. The solemnisation will be held at the garden and followed by lunch at the Restaurant. Masonic Club is a beautiful, colonial building. For those who knew me, I m a sucker for old things! We had sent out the invitation cards to our friends. The invitation cards are designed by my younger Sister who has an artistic streak and a creative hand! Thanks little Sis! *Hugs*

So now, with my spare time (another 1 week), I will try to make a ring pillow! :)

Change of plan.....

Well, my Civil Solemnisation ceremony was supposed to be on 4th April but it was postponed to 29th April as 4th April is an extremely inauspicious day!

This change of plan was a blessing in disguise! I am able to fulfill my dreams of an outdoor, garden wedding!

Never in my life, I had felt so loved before........ :)

The Blue Dress....

Finally, my blue dress is done!

Mum dearest finished sewing it before going for her trip to Hong Kong!

Its really beautiful! Made me felt extremely feminine and demure! I love the low back with those buttons... Those buttons are the brainchild of Mummy... who sew it and the only bad thing is I need someone to help me in this dress!

Think this is the "Something blue" for my Civil Ceremony!

Lacy Story.....

As mentioned in my previous post, I had actually bought a dress for my civil solemnisation ceremony in Apr...

After some advice from my friends, I decided to ask my Mum to sew a dress for me. Once dearest Mummy has agreed to sew for me, we went to hunt for the materials. Mum loves to look at fabrics (occuptional "hazard" of her), she went to Arab Street and Chinatown to check out the fabrics for me.....

Both of us decided to check out this fabric shop, Khemcos at Centrepoint! We had bought fabric from it before but their fabric are quite expensive as they sell good quality cotton, silk and laces fabric..... In order to match my pink shoes, my selection of the colours for the fabrics are pretty limited!

For those who knew me, I m a big fan of lace fabric! So, the minute I touched the french lace... I won't settle for anything less! Plus, there is a sale on the lace that I wanted! I boldly bought 2 metres of blue colored french lace.... .. The lace is so pretty and soft that you can't help but to touch it more!

Unexpected!

The unexpected things always happen!

2 weeks ago... I was at my boyfriend's place.... The usual practice is that I will wait for him to finish his beauty bath first before sending me home later.....

I was in his study and he shown no signs of going to bath... I was thinking to myself,"Hmm.. why is he not going to shower? Nevermind, nag him when i sit down later..." Then, i turn his chair around, preparing to sit...........

The thought of nagging him to shower was completely out of my mind! On the chair, I saw this soft toy... A bear holding a heart and around its' neck is a printed enlarged Cartier diamond ring! He asked the magic question... I was so touched by his gesture that I kept on having this silly smile on my face!

Well... as for my "Cartier" diamond ring... He told me that we should take our time to shop for it!

Its quite an unique proposal! And i had named the bear "50 Million"!

Disappointment...

I saw this ad posted online for the sale of a lace wedding gown....

I fell in love with the design when the seller emailed me pictures of it... Finally, I managed to contact her and arrange to check out the gown....

Unfortunately, it was disappointment as the gown is too small for me and if i will to buy it, I need to lose at least 2 inches on my waist.....

Sigh.... The search will continue.......
