Long time no see...

Time passes very fast... it's been more than one month since i went 'missing in action' from my blog. No choice... had been very busy, especially with my wedding preparations. Never been so busy in my life before. Just for that BIG day... hehe.. let me briefly tell you what's been happening this month..

NATAS Fair
Since my last post, I talked about going to Chan Brothers' travel fair. My hubby and I also went to similar travel fairs of other travel agents. Finally, we went to the biggest travel fair, the NATAS fair and found a tour package which we were keen to take up - to the USA! Eventually, we signed up with ASA Tours - 13 days to the west coast of USA, including San Francisco, Los Angeles and Las Vegas! This will be our honeymoon trip in June 2009. I've been to USA 12 years ago... that's damn long ago loh. A lot of things sure have changed and I want to visit USA again. I've been to LA and LV and my hubby has been to SF. So this time, we will be going to at least one place where we've been before. For now, I need to take passport photo (which I just did today) so that I can apply for a new passport suitable for going to the USA. I've bought some sunblock lotion in advance as it'll be summer in June. Looking forward to this trip very much!! USA.... here we come!

Culinary Tasting at Meritus Mandarin
My family and my future in-laws together with Marcus's grandmother and aunt, went to the culinary tasting at Meritus Mandarin Singapore, where my wedding will be held in May. The food there was very delicious... おいしいね！(oishii ne!) My guests will get to eat the delicious food and of course the famous dessert there is a must!! If you've been there for a wedding dinner before, you will know what dessert I'm talking about. The only not-so-good thing is that there are too many 'meaty' dishes and you will sure get bloated if you finish every dish. Having this in mind, we've decided to reduce one dish so that our guests wont feel too full and of course to reduce food wastage. I'll have to discuss some trivia details with my wedding planner this week. So I'll update again.

IT Show
The next big fair I went was the IT Show 2009 at Suntec City Convention Centre. It was crazy man! There were so many many many people to the extent I felt that a quarter of the whole Singapore population were at Suntec City!! Anyway, my hubby and I squeeze with the crowd and went to recontract my hubby's Singnet plan and the more important thing is to buy my new MacBook. I've been longing for a MacBook for a few months already as I feel that there are lesser breakdown and problems as compared to the Windows platform. I can only collect my new MacBook in 2 weeks' time but it's ok. I still have a desktop to use... The MacBook will be my personal computer when I'm at my hubby's house and of course when I move in eventually. Will update again when I get it.

Wedding photos
I've also collected my wedding photos, photo album and portraits from my bridal studio. Previously, they've given us the softcopies of the photos which we have selected but the photos were unedited ones! I complained to the bridal studio and the lady boss apologised and said they will give us the edited photos. I returned the CD to them (after copying all the photos into my desktop!) and today I got another CD which supposedly to contain the selected and edited photos. To my surprise, they not only give the edited photos, the non-edited non-selected ones were also in this CD!! (I guess they've made a mistake.. haha!) I'm very happy and going to burn a copy of it in case they find out and want it back. haha... it'll be too late then. :)
