Hi there!!

my bad for not updating the blog as 'promised'... been busy preparing for our wedding! these past few months were happy , stressful , fun , intense and much much more other feelings that i do not know how to describe and express in words! Nevertheless, we had loads of fun preparing for our wedding.. such as photography la, selecting gowns for photography laa, shopping for the whole family laa (been going to 1U for approx 8-9 times in 2weeks!!! and whole load of other malls too!) mommy and i will be there from 1100hrs till 5pm!!!! bilif anot???hahaha..

also been busy getting the catering sorted out for the actual day (which falls on the 12thSept2010)(so, for whoever that will be coming on Sun morning..."we're serving da best siu-yoke in PJ!!"), then i had to make sure that i got all my clothes in order, (like what to wear for the dinner in KL and for the dinner in TM)..

was also busy with the invites, sending out invitations to friends and family tru email / fb as well as the old skool way..snailmail!

it was not easy looking for a photographer and a make up artist (that is gonna be wiling to travel KUL-TM-KUL).

i also met up with many frens to pass wedding invites, meeting up with 'long-lost' relatives/frens (and believe me,you..these are relatives that i've never ever knew i had -that was living merely 5-7kms from my parents' hse and primary school frens that i have never met or contacted ever since standard 6!!!!) to pass them invites and many many more other stuff that i cant seem to remember right now! :)

the bestest part of all above was the prewedding photography! before we went, we were told by alot of people that it will be very stressful, very hot n tiring, it will not be fun walking around in gowns and changing suits/dresses/gowns frequently...

seriously, we didnt feel tired or frustrated at all, despite of the heat and because i had to change like 4-5 gowns and had to walk up and down the stairs in 4 1/2 inch stilletto!! (dont forget 'modification' of hair styles too-according to dresses and gowns!) in fact,we had so so much FUN!!! i suppose Hubsterman felt the same too...

we had much much laughs (at ourselves) and at our own goofy-ness throughout the whole photoshoot!!

Well, we had to be at the bridal-house by 6am, and we were at our outdoor location shoot at 1230hrs (in da AFTERNOON!!!!!) we practically couldnt open our eyes for the camera (cos usually in that kinda sun, we'd be in our sunnies!!)..hahaha...(we had to leave 'em sunnies in the car lahh!! Doooddee!!)

when the photoshoot ended at approx 1430hrs.. Hubsterman and i felt like it wasnt enough yet!! haha..we actually wanted more shots!! hehe..

A 'blessing in disguise' happened! two days after the photography we had to select only 80 shots out of the 300++ shots taken!!!! (actually it was suppose to be oni 50 shots, but we managed to 'bargain!') let me tell u this...IT WASNT EASY!!!!!!

the bridal wanted additional of rm100 for every extra shot! that's crazy!!! just imagine, they're gona THROW AWAY approx 200++ photos?????? hahaha... that was the horor-est part of all :(

the end result of it all were very satisfying (for me and Hubsterman).

so, please enjoy these photos like how we enjoyed posing for it... there's also a photo montage and a MTV (of the whole photography day). At the moe, please enjoy these photos first...i will upload the montage and MTV as soon as i figure out...how!! hahaha..

**BEWARE** this is a very very long post!!

Singapore...yet again! Roma's Rocks!!!

Lily & i made another trip to SG (CNY weekend) when Hubsterman was back in SG after ......(was it sea-trial,honey?)..yeah...we went there was also to help AhSeong transport the last of all his stuff back to KL.It was also another alasan to go for SHOPPING!!!!

Ohh Myyyy!!! (that time...i so wish i was earning in SG..)hehehe...Nahhhh!! kidding me...live in SG!! :P:P ...hahaha...soo NOT!
ok..ok..tis post is actually about Tony Romas in SG... and because its in my mind NOW at this very moment.. *Gulp!* ..yes! yes! i am hungry...
OMG!!!!

Cinna-ment (cinnamon rolls + experiment)

i have always noticed that Hubsterman CANNOT resist cinnamon rolls... everytime we passby a shop or cafe he will ter-liur or will stop to get some! there was once he was so kempunan and tapau-ed a few(despite after a hearty hearty dinner),but it only ended up in the fridge for a good couple of days...but he still ate it all!! (i love u honey)...

so this is one of the reason i decided to BAKE...(no...no...wait.....BAKE seems so pro!! LoL) actually, i decided to LEARN to bake for my darling Hubsterman!!

i have NEVER ever in my life knead dough, what more make dough!! hehe..but, i always believe things that are done with pure Tender, Loving, Care will eventually turn out to be something aprreciated!!! (true anot??.........i will find out when u back onshore honey!!)-hahaha...sounds fal-sampah-ish....but its my own believe maa...who wansta tell me otherwise???hehe..

below are some pix that i manged to take, despite the 'ke-kan-cheong-an' of the whole event!!! hahaha...

(i dunno if anybody will feel the same like how i felt.....like i said, it was my Virgin attempt to bake!!! 'create' dough??!!! wahlauuu!! i oni watch "the happenings of it" on Astro channel 703 or...or 707 or any cooking/baking shows oni wor....tis time i do it MYSELF worr!!...whether flour measurement enough or not?did i get the correct flour???was i adding in ingredients correctly??was i stirring it all in the correct direction (does it really matter??)?? and so many many more 'was i' questions!!!) there was even a micro micro moment that whether i should call mommy to ask and see if i was doing it the correct way!!! hahahaha...thinking of it now,i think probly i shouldn't write it here (malu-fy myself only!)hehe....

but anyway...it all turned out...SATISFACTORY but of course there is still room to improve!! i still have approx 3 weeks till the FINAL TEST....(the return of Hubsterman!!)

the ingredients according to recipe found online!

the dough..(the 'duration' was messy!! no pix)

time to 'fill em up'...(yeah...i need 2 get me self a baking brush..or whatever that brush is called!)heeeehee...
