思念

好想念我的男朋友哦!
他又“抛弃”我了!;(

我爱你!

结婚之高跟鞋

随着拍结婚照的日子一天一天的逼近,我也开始兴奋起来。为了迎接这一天的到来,我们开始购买需要的配件和道具。女生毕竟是女生嘛!我又怎么会忘了新娘装扮的配角--高跟鞋?

坦白说,我算是很不挑了。才走了几天,就搞定了三双高跟鞋。很厉害吧?嗯,效率高是好的,但是我的口袋却破了个大洞!管不了这么多了,我要做个漂亮的新娘!就让我为大家介绍阿一,阿二和阿三吧!


阿一是为了衬我出嫁当天会穿上的香槟色礼服。我就是喜欢这件礼服的素雅简单。

高贵的公主!

阿一!

宝蓝色的阿二给我一种很高贵庄重的感觉,这和我的晚礼服给人的感觉是一致的!

即将赴宴的公主!

阿二!

为了确保我出外景时能更轻松,我买了露脚趾的阿三!

调皮的公主!

阿三!

12月14日那天千万不要下雨哦!*祈祷*

完美家园之一

经过了多番讨论,,我们决定开始为我们的新家画设计图。如此一来,我们就能够把我们的设计带出去给装修承包商看看,希望这样能够得到更准确的估价。

说真的,画画还真的不是我的强项。想到画画我就头疼。还好,小志很有耐心,二话不说就扛下了画图的重任,我只需要帮他找灵感就好了。老公真棒啊!

首先,我们从厨房开始。厨房的实用性当然很重要,但是也不能失美感。就这两个条件,我们可是讨论了好久。综合了我们所有的意见,小志画出了初稿,并为其上了色。

初稿

我觉得我的老公真的不是盖的!他超有天分的!真的好崇拜他哦!他的角度抓得很好,图也画得很清楚。我有信心,有小志在,我们的厨房一定会做得很漂亮的。

为了不浪费小志画的图,我们一定要找到完美的承包商!

结婚之兄弟的领带

这两个星期,我们真的是走到腿都快断了。为什么呢?一切都是为了寻找兄弟在我们的大婚之日将会带上的领带!

为了完成本小姐从小到大的梦想,所以可怜的小志也得陪着我一起去找苹果绿的领带。找了好几个地方,这才发现这个颜色的领带真的很难找耶!他说的很有道理,男生应该是不会喜欢绿色的。

我们先是去牛车水走走。好不容易找到了一个挺接近的颜色,结果却凑不足12条。OG里也有我喜欢的颜色,但是价钱方面高于我们之前定下的价位,于是我们只好继续努力。

隔日,我们到位于乌节路的幸运大厦继续我们的领带之旅。很顺利地,我们终于找到了我喜欢的苹果绿,而且又不会太贵的领带。

传说中的苹果绿领带!

走了好久好久,终于可以坐下来吃晚餐。活着其实并不复杂嘛!

久违了的沙煲饭

可爱的男朋友!

可爱的女朋友!

好期待我们的大婚之日哦!

家具大采购之三

不好意思,我最近实在是太懒了,所以近期都没有上来为我们的婚礼和新家的全纪录做出贡献。

不过,我们最近都没闲着,一有空就是往各个家具店跑。找了很久,终于买到了我们两个都很喜欢的床架!很可惜地,我们忘了拍照,所以暂时大家只能凭空想象了。嘿嘿!又是核桃色的哦!小志已经完全被我洗脑了哦!

除此以外,我们也开始物色装修承包商。当天,我们见了一位承包商。对于装修房子的价位,我们大概有了一定的了解。但是,看了这么多论坛,我们还是多见见几位再决定吧!

啊!开始觉得有点儿压力了!看来,要建立我们的梦想之屋还真的是不容易啊!

North South East West Vegetarian Cuisine

When I first heard of this name, I was thinking aloud, "Are you kidding me? What a kiddish name." But after reading the good reviews about this place, I figured that it was not a play-play kind of a place that I first thought it was.

We were there because our friends are vegetarians. We ordered mushroom soup, cheesy spaghetti, mushroom baked rice and maple syrup milk tea. The tea came first and just like what we expected, it was Koi in the hot version but minus the pearls. Nice nonetheless. The mains (I had the spaghetti and my dear had the baked rice) were excellent and richly delicious. The soup, however, was the only disappointment, being too watery and having a weird unexplained smell.

And it was not expensive, considering that it costed only $60+ for 7 people. It is also not difficult to reach as it is just directly opposite the side gate of TKGS. I guess I would go back to try the other items on its menu.

Furniture Shopping Spree 2

Another purchase adding on to the furniture collection of our new home. Actually, we like this set of shoe cabinet and bench when we first saw it at NEX. But we did not purchase it then because we were worried that the dimensions of the narrow entrance of thy house (also officially known as our balcony, though ironically it serves none of the purposes a balcony provides) cannot fit our lofty ideas.

But after taken some actual measurements, the items were deemed small enough for our "balcony". The purchase was made also to capitalise on the 5% discount which will expire after 4 November. I just hope that they do not come up with some other promotions which will give more discounts. 

Anyway, the two items from V.hive Home Interiors:
The shoe cabinet
The bench
Hmm, I guess there are more to come.

In time...

Well, it was a movie which my dear wanted to watch and as usual, after she read about how the story went. Even so, I quite like the thought-provoking concepts lying implicitly within the scenes, though I would rate the movie higher if there were more development of the characters. Then again, budget constraints may have resulted in that.

Anyway, the show had this concept about time being an asset and that one has to work in order to earn time to live beyond 25 years old. In a way, it is sort of a replacement for cash in our world. It started with the male lead living happily (sort of?) with his mum. But the show proceeded, showing in bits and pieces how inflation reduces the value of work with the amount of time earned by each person becoming lesser and the payment for items becoming more expensive. This so-called inflation resulted in the death of his mum as the male lead is unable to pass some time back to his mum.

Then the male lead managed to rescue another man from another time zone (social class in our context) from being robbed of his time. However, with a strong intent to die after living so long, he transferred his time to the male lead and committed suicide. This enabled the male lead to cross time zones and wanting to experience life with that much of a time. This also triggered the search for him by the time-keepers (law enforcers in our context) as he was linked to the death of the 'rich' man.

Well, in the process, the male lead caught the eye of the female lead as she found him unique in her own time zone. And by stroke of luck (and also the hand of the director), the male lead got to know the female lead much better after gambling with her dad. But like in any movie, it cannot be all that rosy and smooth-sailing and thus came in the timekeepers to arrest the male lead for possessing too much time and in the process his excess time was confiscated. To escape, he kidnapped the female lead and it soon turned into a car getaway with them escaping successfully.

The male lead then showed the female lead more of his life and later on, the female lead was heartbroken because the dad did not want to sacrifice his time for the ransom to save her. In retaliation, the male and female lead decided to rob the dad's company and distribute the wealth to the people of the lower social class. Well, in the end, both male and female lead continued their 'crimes' by robbing other companies of their 'time'.

In the movie, it was mentioned that many people had to die, so that a few others can live forever. In a way, it was like a mockery of our world, where most people are poor so that a few others are rich and it was sad that in such a system with inflation, the poor gets poorer and the rich gets richer. Another concept that was brought out was that time is relative, if time was spent wisely and happily, one day will be enough; whereas if time was spent in other ways, no amount of time will be enough and one will never be happy.

Well, in all, it was a nice serious sci-fi movie which we both enjoyed.
