1 more thing settled

Never knew that just gg ROM got so much things to do...

Done:
1) Told dd's parents
2) Booked the suite at LoveThatBinds (ROM's wedding planner, $208 poorer)

Not-Yet:
1) do the ROM efiling
2) Find a suitable(and hopefully not too ex) package for ROM
3) Buy wedding band
4) tell my dad
5) Buy proposal Ring, propose to dd..

Went to bridal elegance today to look at their ROM package... took a long time to find the place cos it's at McPherson... dd went to try their gowns, think she like one of them or a few, i dunno lah..but i think better scout around first, no need to decide so early right? see see n compare... hehe but I believe got 65% chance dd will go for this studio... cos the pricing looks reasonable..

Wah still so many things to do..hopefully can finish before 27 jan... hehe

Been reading the styleweddings forum, got a thread saying the couple got the 987A/B flats ...grrrhh we cannot get.. not gg to read that thread anymore...

Then we went to Visit Master Ong a Fengshui MAster, i am very bad i called him "Mr Potato" hehe cos he looks like one...anyway picked a date for ROM and a day for opening our hse... $38 only cheap cheap hehe Hope there's no major hiccups ...

Went shopping @ Bugis Junction, then dd saw some wedding bands she like at Lee Hwa Jewelleries, one cheaper (smaller diamond) and one more ex (Bigger diamond) actually prefer the cheaper version mainly cos of the design, cos the bigger diamond like too thick quite "rough"... Hope dd can accept it...and i STRESSed that it's more of the design then the cost...

Hoping for just a simple and memorable ROM n wedding ... too elaborate, alot of things to do and of cos burns a big hole in our pockets (esp.. mine) hehe and i dun think we need also, simple and good, that's my opinion..

Some interesting stuffs

Two Monkeys
Two Monkeys are about as much fun as, well, a barrel of monkeys! This Sign has tons of energy and is all about pursuing pleasure and adventure, so two Monkeys is usually just double the fun. Occasional arguments are to be expected; this Sign tends to be a bit of a show-off and likes to maintain its position in the spotlight. These two might have occasional power disputes but the Monkey isn't interested in holding a grudge; that takes too much time and negative energy. Fights will be thorough but over quickly and forgotten completely.
As lovers these two will enjoy a highly physical connection; their lovemaking may be like two kittens, rolling around and playing with claws bared. If these two live together their house may not be very well-kept or even very oft-inhabited; Monkeys don't tend to spend much time at home unless it's to bring back all their friends after the clubs have closed down. This relationship is likely to keep both their interest longer than one with a different Sign might, since the Monkey likes stimulation first and foremost. This Sign has the potential to stray romantically, being very gregarious and curious too. That may not be a problem in this relationship, even if it does happen!
As business partners these two might struggle over dominion. The Monkey is a fun-loving Sign but also likes to be in control, even if that means having to put in some actual work. These two will have to try to compromise over who is in control of which aspects of the business. They can function as a power team in business meetings, however, wowing potential clients and associates with their know-how and charming sense of humor. An office shared by these two will be a dynamic place, as this Sign loves taking risks; the business may fail or prosper, but it will always be an interesting ride.
Two Monkeys share a compatibility of nine, on a scale of one to ten

Short day for DD

A short sunday for dd cos dd went to watch the dunno-wat wakeboarding competition instead of pei pei d1.. haiz... How great is love right?

Anyway dd came over to pick me up at around 3plus... then we went to search for the "famous" 181 House of seafood steamboat buffet (or something like tat) in AMK... reach the blk 181 coffeeshop found out that it has closed down...was planning to go Maxwell rd but then chanced upon a banner saying that the steamboat buffet store had shifted to blk 159 .. haha then we went there and found it...!

Wah so sinful, just had buffet @ Rice Table on Friday with my colleagues, celebrate dunno wat birthday and their impending 6 mths Germany Trip... then eat this steamboat buffet... then somemore 1 wk no exercise cos of my injured knee... wah... sin sin

Verdict: Think better to go Marina South, mabbe cos of the competition more food variety...
Price is abt the same ....

After the dinner very full so decided to go IMM(cos got free parking) walk walk to burn away some ofthe food. Spotted this van dunno whether it qualifys for the "parking idiot" blog or not but anyway just post it here lor

Earlier Post: cos of dd's errr careless reading, was tricked into gg suntec city for some pre-natas fair last Wed, she actually read 29th Aug as 29th Sept. then had dinner there, ate the-long -time-no-tasted suntec roti prata and wantan mee... so the pre-natas thingy become our own PT

I think that everyone out there who have a loved ones will have their very own love story to tell of how they met with their darlings as for us we prefer to refer ourselves "Dear Dear".So "A tale of 2 Dears" is just to give a account of our love story from how we met to how we became wat we are now. Enjoy reading...

Dear1's Diary

May 1999

I had just finished my 2nd year examinations in Singapore Polytechnic and during the holidays, I am suppose to be doing my ITP which is also my final year project(Robotic pet dog) in campus. When I got to the lab I found out that there was another group of students who were going to do this project with us. My beloved Dear 2 was one of the students in the other group. At that time neither of us knew who the other was. In fact I do not even know her name then it was after a few weeks later that she introduced herself to us(me and my groupmates) that I got to know her. Little did I know that this is the start of a beautiful relationship.

June 1999

We have been working on the project for about a month now,but have not been making much headthrough. However my friendship with her seem to get better as we spend more time together in the lab. I began to develop a crush for her however this crush quickly subsided when I found out that she actually had a boyfriend. so things when back to usual.I do not know whether it was fate at work or wat but we got back our results at the end of the month and she was posted to the same course and class as me.

July 1999

School reopens and we head back to our books, both of us were in the same class. As she does not have any friends in the class she kinda found herself tagging me and my friends. So at lectures and tutorials she would sit beside me as I am her only friend then. We began to understand each other more as we spend more time together.

August 1999

She confided in me that her boyfriend had left her when I saw that she was quite distraught during classes.Being helpful and as a friend I console her and told her to forget that heartless chap. However at this point of time I still did not feel anything other than pity for her(Honest!). She quickly got over her painful relationship though(mabbe due to my companionship?, haa haa) anyway we still went to the lab quite often as we had to work on our project. We sort of got closer to each other and we developed a way of communicating during lectures and tutorials-by writing replies and questions on little sheets of papers. By this time around due to the fact that we were spending much time together, my friends began to make fun of us saying that we were a pair. However i simply brush these remarks aside.

September 1999

We often went out during breaks together. Sometimes in campus and sometimes out to shopping centers. My feelings for her were buried somewhere deep within me, waiting to be discovered.

October 1999

One day she wrote something on the piece of paper(actual content is secret) which I regarded as a hint, I could have hinted to her but I was a very shy boy so in the end, she had to take the initiative. I have always enjoy a strictly platonic relationship with my female peers when I was in secondary school so I sort of "inherited" that kind of behavior into polytechnic and tease and joke with her like what I did in secondary school. After that little sentence she said I went hope and though carefully and deeply. I ask myself whether I do feel anything for her and the answer is "Yes" I do like her but I am not sure whether my feelings is real or not as I have never been in a relationship before so where feelings is concern I am a rookie.Anyway I asked her one night whether she meant what she said and whether she is willing to give me a chance. she did not give me a definite answer but I think her answer is "Yes". I walked her home the next day this is the 1st time I walked her home and only the second time I walk gals home(the 1st was with a netfriend coz it's dark). I wanted to hold her hand but I was afraid that she would reject my approach so I did not do it but chit chat with her for the entire journey. Then exam arrive.

November 1999

After the exams, we,together with a few friends decided to have lunch together to sort of celebrate the end of exams. After the meal, we went for a walk around the city area, I wanted to hold her hand so badly so finally at a CD shop I pluck up my courage and ask her to and she did hold my hands. After that I never wanted to let go even till now... Finally we were together,the day was 6th of November...it's the start of a new begining and I hope that I never had to let go of her hand that was so dear to me...
