The Token of Love

June 5th 2007 by Wife in Others 8

“So, where’s the diamond ring he proposed with?”, someone may ask me. Well, truth is, he didn’t propose with a ring, much less a diamond one. And no, it’s not that he’s a miser, or that he wasn’t sincere enough! It’s purely because I do not see the reason in getting a diamond for an [...]

Mandai Orchid Garden – a place of serenity and beauty

June 4th 2007 by Wife in Venues 66

Before the recce for solemnization venues, I was this “suaku” (literally “mountain turtle”, i.e. ignorant) person who thought the only Orchid Garden in Singapore was in the Botanic Garden. How wrong was I! Not only does the Mandai Orchid Garden house beautiful orchids that just bloom out in bursting color from the green slopes in [...]

Peiying gave a short introduction to Beach Culture, Watercross @ Pasir Ris in the last entry. I thought the place was really nice.
