Officially moved in! 8th Jan 2008 :)

February 11th 2008 by Wife in Announcements, Preparations 0

To update (as we received complaints that we were no longer updating this space - busy busy busy!), we’ve moved into our new place for about a month now (much longer than I felt it was.. haha) and it’s been just great! Other than having to deal with household chores (cleaning the house is no [...]

Homely home :)

December 8th 2007 by Wife in Feelings, Preparations 4

Despite the troubles faced and “fires” fought while getting our new flat ready to be lived in, today was a really pleasant day, as we found our flat getting ever so much more cosy after the paint job was completed, lights were put up and drilling of essentials (and wants) onto the walls done. Just [...]

Our new home..the ups and downs in getting there

November 19th 2007 by Wife in Feelings, Preparations 0

Took some pics of our empty (and dusty :p) new house when we went up to check on the taps and locks of our bedrooms! So here’s a peek at how our new house looks like!
Views of the currently empty living and dining areas…

The hallway to the bedrooms… I can put up photos [...]

A headache..

November 13th 2007 by Wife in Feelings, Preparations 2

Looks like getting our own love nest is not as easy as I thought… No doubt that we are grateful that our house came relatively smoothly in terms of the whole balloting and buying process, but getting it ready for moving in is another matter altogether! With a tight budget, it is so difficult to [...]

Flat choosing

October 9th 2007 by Wife in Feelings, Preparations 0

We finally received the letter of notification to go down to HDB hub to choose our flat. We were given a date and time, which if we were to change, we’d have to suffer the consequences of being pushed back in the queue of flat choosing, i.e. risk getting the flat of your choice being [...]

We are successful for our flat balloting!

September 26th 2007 by Wife in Announcements, Preparations 1

Yup, the title of this entry says it all - we are getting our new flat in Jurong West extension! Yipee! A 5-room flat, we are now having a headache of which unit to choose, since we are not allowed to go into the units to take a look for ourselves. Nonetheless, it’s getting exciting! [...]

Wedding gowns galore!

September 17th 2007 by Wife in Feelings, Preparations 0

Went bridal studio shopping with my cousin on Saturday, and it was such an eye-opener! The variety of cuts, shapes and designs of the wedding gowns available on the racks of the bridal studios are simply stunning and makes one feel really spoilt for choice, as they all look so beautiful!
And to my surprise, [...]

The planning process…

August 18th 2007 by Wife in Preparations 2

Now that the wedding solemnisation event is over, I can showcase our planning process! Have stopped myself from doing so earlier so as not to spoil any surprises.. Haha At least in terms of what we have designed and customized ourselves so as to bring a more personal touch to the whole [...]

Hope we get our new flat :)

July 29th 2007 by Wife in Preparations 0

Even though I’ve lots to do, I just feel like blogging. After viewing a sample flat unit of the Jurong West flats available for eballoting this month onwards, I’m actually quite excited about getting a totally new flat there. The flat comes with basic furnishings, such as painted walls, skirtings, floorings and toilet utilities. In [...]

1st Fitting for our dress and suit!

July 20th 2007 by Wife in Preparations 1

Aaron and I went for our first fitting at the bridal studio for my dress and his suit! I was quite excited about the thought of getting to try out the dress that I’ve loved so much when I initially saw it in the magazine, and also for Aaron to see if his shirt and [...]
