Wedding Prep 2

Last week was bz week. bz with work, bz helping sis on her new "biz" (practically running ard like mad near work place, orchard and bishan to distribute goods during lunch and after work). After my last distribution last friday, it was phew! Ended up in Bishan so met up with gh for dinner and some little shopping trip there. Bought shoes again! heh..Oh some updates on our wedding plans:

- Went to meet up with Oriental Account Manager for weddings and she took us on a quick tour around the ballroom and formally introduced the details like how the stage backdrop is like there, where the stage can be placed, where are the places where the march in can be done, what floral deco they provide for the surroundings and on the tables, wat colour table cloth we can use and is head straight to an open cafe for further explanation on the menu, how we can mix and match the dishes, blah blah blah...everything was done within half an hour i think. how do i feel about her? hmm...nice but too formal..however, minus that, i really like the place. The ballroom is fan shaped with the width a bit narrow but still not too bad.

- We may just go with a lunch wedding as we find it better for us and the guests too! see, we are so thoughful, so please show your appreciation with big amount ang baos ya! :P big money big money! heh..

- i find we are not like the kind who goes around hunting for hotels, Oriental is the 2nd hotel we explored after intercontinental and we have more or less come to a conclusion. Although we did make a trip down to Mariott to take a peep in the ballroom, we are still keen is Oriental. :) We may just go ahead with that.

- We got our joint bank account on Monday! i was on leave and gh took half day. we went to the nation's preferred bank, feeling all excited abt it, not knowing we had to wait 1.5 hours just to do a 15 mins procedure to open the account. gh was so tired that he just slept on the sofa in the bank...eh...hee..

- Did more wedding prep talks with 2 other abt-to-be-married church friends, 1 in mar07, another in apr 07 and mine in may07! we were serving in choir all 4 svses on sun and was just talking all about weddings, challenges and all. so exciting rite? haha..i realised we were sitted on a same table as some young mothers in choir and it is obvious they were engaging in their baby talk and 3 of us in our own wed talks..:)

So much for weddings...wow! more wed talks and updates very soon! so exciting so exciting!!! and yes, time to grab some interior design mag/books for my new home. Still some months away towards key collection but should do some research now. But still at rest and moving with the Holy Spirit. Favored everywhere we go (which i do see it manifesting during the prep - so much help offered) and having an enjoyable journey, not forgetting to pah tor once in a while. Alrite, i'm seeing double image now...too tired to continue...till the next entry...blessed week. :))

Dry and Drained...but still Loved!

I realised i have been neglecting the Word for quite a while now. Besides midweek and sun svses, i practically have my bible in the bag to sorta add some weight to it so it dun seem empty. Everytime i wanted to pick it up on my way to work, i will choose to rest my eyes thruout the journey. With Pastor putting up verses on the screen fo r us, opening te bible during svses is rare and everytime i felt that the verses is good and since i stopped my note taking for quite sometime, i will tell myself to rem the verse and read it up again when i go back but it never happened :( and i just forget those verses. I have not been putting quality time in the Word. The most i will only quickly read thru the proverbs for the day online and tt's about it. Even if that doesn't alter God's love for me and his promise to bless me, it is not an excuse to just leave reading the Word to the last or only when challenges comes along. In fact, I'm still very loved and is enjoying the blessings frm Him. But i'm not refreshed, i'm like bzbzbz.....and feeling so tired....hee..but i'm so glad i'm still very blessed! Work is bz but very blessed!


blessed blessed blessed but dry dry dry!

Wedding Prep 1

Has been a pretty bz past week. Some quick update on the wedding prep. Gh and i finally applied and got our house. We will be getting the keys within the next 3-6 months time. We got a big place for a reasonable price! Praise God! Jesus is the Lord of the house and He shall provide for everything to build the house and our family. It was a pretty stressful week while deciding on the house. Dun get me wrong. Gh and I had a restful time during our house hunting and we both decided on that particular unit based on the peace we had while exploring the area. It's actually just across gh's parent's place and next to the LRT. We had a fair bit opinions and challenges while seeking for approval but we went ahead anywayz. Well, it is the people staying there that makes a difference. We are God's beloved and our blessings are from Him. We are happy and excited about our new home. At least for me, i'm excited about our home although i still do not have an idea how i want it to be done up. hee..That's first step for our prep. The next thing we are focusing on is the venue for our big day! We had a few in mind to explore and once the desision is out, the theme of our wedding will be revealed too!! keke...Lord, give us wisdom and open the right doors to us in the process.This is really a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I know i'm going to see the grace and lovingkindness of God in this whole process! We will also rem to take time out of our prep to spend quality time with each other. We love because He first loved us! :))
