life after marriage..

usually after my friends got married, i usually ask them how's life.. normally their answer will be "like that lor.. hmm.. are we different? we have been so busy.. busy with what i do not know but i know time is short.. and we misses home badly.. we are married for less than 2 weeks but we gone home for more than 4 times.. though i live near my parents, but i do not live that near to my in-laws.. today we went back to my in-laws place for dinner too..

we got back home on 24th Dec, thanks to my gugu who went to fetch us back in her new vios.. 2 day old! he he.. we reached home about 2am.. we started to unpack all the new & dirty clothes to bring for washing.. we packed the gifts and the food stuff for our family.. 1 packet for my home, 1 packet for dear dear home, 1 packet for our house.. etc etc.. by the time we finished unpacking, it was 3am..

i went to bathe.. as my hair is wet.. i watched little nonya.. thanks to our miotv.. dear dear fell asleep while watching.. i thought was rather exciting and i stayed up till 5am to finish the episodes that were aired. so the next morning, i woke up rather late..

then over the weekend, we went 24 hrs fairprice at jurong point.. bought some bread, jam to make breakfast.. but i slept late again.. i made breakfast at 3pm! can u imagine? haha.. because i am used to having clock around the house so that when i snooze, i can tell the time.. there is no single clock around.. i must go get one this weekend. alot designs in jurong point.. hehe..

all right, gotta take sleep and prepare for work tmr.. he he..

new buys from the land of smiles for my house..

before we went, our remote control was put in a carton-liked box from the "chuang tou teng" which i kinda detested.. because it is simply not nice.. and especially so for a new house.. he he..

so my priority was to get a remote control holder when i went there.. even if i cannot find, i must get something to put it properly when im back.. but i found! there is this cute shop in the jj market which sells alot of cutesey stuff.. besides getting this remote control holder for myself, i got 1 for b sis new house.. hee.. a pair of seatbelt cuties for my aunt's new car.. a tissue holder which dear dear fancies.. prior to this, i have already bought 3 thai silk tissue holder.. 1 red for cny! he he..

this is the cute cute remote control holder im refering to:

the tissue holder that dear dear fancies.. dad said it looks like sore lips... hah~~

updates after my wedding..

sis asked me why i didnt blog about my wedding.. because i do not have the photos to blog about it.. hee..

but i received many good feedbacks about the express highlights.. i love it too! maybe some will find it too cheesy.. but the videographer thinking are in par with us.. we wanted something fun loving, comical, entertaining & sweet..

sharing some photos taken from my hp.. hee.. while waiting for the 1st march in.. thanks dear dear to help welcome all the guests..

some shots taken in the lands of smiles:

friendly tuk tuk driver took for us.. woo-hoo~~

dear dear lunch..


hot, sour & spicy!!

our breakfast every morning..

we are coming back!!

signing in from centrepoint petchburi..

well, guess there is noone who goes to bkk for honeymoon.. well i do not consider that as our honeymoon.. it is just a short getaway & an opportunity to get things for our new house and some cny clothes.. hee.. honeymoon will come soon, right dear?

it is our 3rd day in bkk.. as i anticipated, dear dear feels bored to shop whole day.. at night, we on the animal planet as there were no great shows.. dear dear uses his laptop while i played psp..


that is our night life in bkk.. hee..

bought some dresses.. some jeans.. some tops.. ready for cny! hee..

see you guys on Christmas!!

my ang pow box..

thanks for the beautiful ang pow box, ah yi..

its so sweet..

heard a piece of news..

giving u a courage boost & encouragement to continue.. i know it is not a good time for u.. but know that i will be with you always.. Love you

on mc today..

this morning when i woke up, i felt nauseous and my stomach was stiring and stiring.. i had told my maid to make sandwich for me to bring to work the day after.. she was at the kitchen preparing for me when i woke up..

who knows i went to the toilet and started vomiting.. my brother asked if im ok.. my maid took clothes for me to change..

at that instant, i felt sad.. next time when i live on my own.. bro & khartini is not there anymore.. whenever im sick, khartini always takes good care of me.. now that im going to live on my own.. dear dear also has to prepare for work.. will anyone take care of me in the mornings when i feel unwell? :(

drawing nearer and nearer..

last weekend, we moved the tv over.. we put up the string curtains too! looked like falling rain.. hee.. showers of blessings!

nice!!


last week, we wrapped all the lucky draw prizes.. was filled with high hopes.. but didnt win any..:(

e weekend before, we went to jerk thai for lunch.. some photos:

food tasting on 28th Nov..

went for food tasting on a sunday afternoon for lunch..

presenting the photos:

as we were too engrossed with the good food, i forgot to snap 1 picture of the yam ring.. that was yummilious!!!

cheers to the great meal!!

my rantings on 30th Nov..

" If He carried the weight on the cross upon His shoulders.. "

It is going to be a busy week ahead..

mon & tues full day meetings with dinners..
wed is a non-working day for me as we will be doing family visits..
thurs i will be on leave to acc dear dear to the hospital.. then at night for the D&D..
fri, sat, sun will be having full day meetings again.. hiaz.. its going to be a stressful week ahead..

most of my friends asked if i rested enough for the wedding, my family advised me to sleep early everyday to get enough beauty rest to prepare for my big day.. though i slept well throughout the night with undisturbed sleep, but i didnt really rest well enough for the big day..

initially wanted to go for a beauty spa/ facial session.. but due to the little time i have for myself.. i didnt manage to relax my skin and pamper myself.. :(

i hope after my wedding things will be back into good shape.. i have more time to do my shopping, stock up on clothes, shoes, bags, accessories and be back into good shape.. more time to enjoy my new oven and once again get back into my baking mood.. i miss baking!!!

well, i also hope dear dear can manage some things well and even better after our marriage to give ourselves more security.. :)

p.s: hope we can go for a good honeymoon to relax and enjoy ourselves to start 2009 afresh..

25th Nov 08 安床。。。

过大礼的仪式过后，我们到新家，也就是我们的安乐窝，准备安床。。

我等了好久。。一至想要把 string curtain 放上。。 因为，担心送床的工人把他弄肮脏所以一至没有把他放上去。。 终于床已经送来了，我也称这个机会把他放上了。。 好开心。。 好漂亮喔！！谢谢我的设计师，也就是我的啊姨的好注意。。 把我们的安乐窝打扮得那么美丽。。

请看照片吧！。。

弟弟在床上。。 为我们打个滚。。
