YES ..... 365 days ago, we stepped ROM (Registry of Marriage) at 7, Canning Rise. Then into the chamber of Marriage and VOW before the Solemniser that we will remain Husband and wife for the rest of our life. a VOW so powerful yet warmth and romantic.

This is the moment.
Tagged with it till the end of time,

Commitments
Love
Care
Respect
Understanding
Forgiveness
Endurances



The warranty trail period is over. From now on, it is just the 2 of us and no more turning back.

Let me do a little of my self reflection :

1) Egoistic - Thank you darling for understanding me and giving in to my ridicules demand at times. As i had promised you, i will be a SNAG. Sensitive New Age Guy.

2) Unreasonable - I know my temper. i will think before i fired up.

3) Bloody Mouth - YES YES YES YES i know i know... i am horrible at words. My words are sharp, causes bleeding and death at times. *slap my mouth*


About me as his wife:

1) Lousy Temper - this is me.....and this is the first thing i need to change.... hubby... help me ok. And thanks for your understanding.

2) Stupid mouth - very fast on learning bad word.......ohhhhhhhh pai sei...

3) My lazy brain - sometimes i am just lazy to think....... it makes me like an idiot

4) Too Rough - sorry to you honey..... when i play with you most of the time i am not purposely hurt you.

Our 1st Year Anniversary...
Simple yet meaningful.

PEOPLE and MORE People Car and more JAMS !!

As you know, Chinese New Year is Just round the corner. Every typical Singaporean will shop at the last minutes. Year in year out, this habit never change. Just look at the chaos



You notice that the MRT entrance are clear. Thats because the officers from the station are stopping the people from crowding at the station entrance


So these are those people trying to get comfy and stuck in a long wait trying to get tthe ir precious vehicle into the car park which are already FULL. The parking spaces over at my area are Pathetically limited..... So awaiting for the coming last weekend before Chinese New Year. Hopefully that it WILL be super pack. Until no one can breath and start fainting due to lack of Oxygen... LOL ... (no la , we are not so mean, we do have backup Oxyegn tanks for emergency.. lol)

So a piece of advice for those who are driving into Chinatown area, please, put your baby at home or a nearby carpark and take our Nation's MOST efficient transport system to shop here.
It wouldn't be very enjoying spending few hours just to get your car into a parking lot.

Oh ya, another word of caution, please try not to bring your new born baby here as well. My place here does not have centralize air con. So when it get crowded, it kind of stuffy and hot and humid. Not a good place for your cute babies. Of cause, your pram .... Blocking other's way ...

Busy Year 2008 - Sibuk Tahun

2 (wedding) + 2 (Photoshoot) + 1.5 Honeymoon = ONE HAPPY MARRIED COUPLE
Yes, this is what we will be heading to after the Lunar New Year....

Coming with it are frustrations, headache and lots of planning and of course lots of $$$$$$ to be spend. Well, its ONCE in a life time and to add more to it, How many people could actually be married to the same women or man twice ? lol !!!!!

Eric will be flying to Balikpapan for his first Lunar New Year as a Son-in-Law, previously he was only kb pacar. So for the next 10 days or so he is going to be Indonesian....

It will be tough to leave behind all the luxury of life to be there only to enjoy the slightly above average luxury. Okta is going to miss her HOT bath there since there is no available water heaters. At least, the room is air-conditioned. Eric is going to miss his cyber life, his Hantutetek and of course, his metallic mistress !!!! LOL....

It will be nice for us that worked so hard and finally able to de-stress without worries of handphones telephones, emails, work and daily hustle of city life...

My children :)

Since don't know when, we began to have this "fetish" of keeping soft toys. Not just oridinary soft toys, but Octopus, Sotong, Squid or they called it in Indonesian (ikan cumi-cumi).

Let me introduce you to them ....



On the left, the Mother of all Cumi Cumi
Cumi Cumi Besar

On the right, the naughties, cutest,

A little more picture of the cuty cumi cumi

The other few in the car :

From the left Kecil Cumi Cumi Hitam, Kecil Cumi Cumi Merah, Kecil Cumi Cumi Pinky, Tiggy and Penguin.

You might wonder why the tiger is there.... It represent Okta (since she is born in the year of the tiger), taking care of all the Kecil Cumi Cumi... lol

As for Penguin... i also dunno i looks cute so we just put it in :)

So theses are the new members of my family.

Finally Level 70 !!!!!!

After countless death, killing countless Mobs, slaughtering countless humans, for 2 months of frustration, anger and laughter, i am FINALLY level 70 !!! An achievement for my World Of Warcraft. My character, Hantutetek, Level 70 Undead Mage.


Although still poorly geared, i am in the mids of gaining my 62k honor points and 7k arena points for my epic gears. Saving 5k gold for my epic flight mount.

So you bloody Allies, better watch out !!!! I want my bloody revenge !!! My revenge for all you camping on me countless times and backstabbing my butty oh ya not forgetting gang raping me!!!!






Well of course, my wife is very unhappy about me gluing my butt to the chair, my left hand to the keyboard and right hand to the mouse. Although she also has her Korean DVD serials to keep her occupied, i know that she felt neglected. Women ... haiz ..... *shake head* ok, Sorry darling i was unable to satisfy your needs and accompany you to sleep. Thank you for your understanding.

Commencing Project perkawinan Part 1

Finally, we decided to start preparing for our wedding.
Although it is still 327 days away from our BIG DAY. Preparation has to start somewhere.
So heres the checklist

1) Venue - CONFIRMED
2) Bridal Studio - Haven started looking
3) Photo shoot - Haven started looking
4) Wedding Theme - Still researching
5) Customary barang barang - Still compiling on the list of stuff to buy.

So far we can only think of these.

Interesting part of the booking of the venue.
We actually had to fight over the booking with another couple to secure the place.
We called up most of the hotel and the ballrooms, function rooms for that day were all taken up. So only ONE, available function is on tentative booking. We ask the Banquet Sales person if we could be placed first on the waiting list and the moment they doesn't want the booking, we will take. She told us that she will ask the other couple and reply us the answer next week.

So fair enough, next week came and we went down to the hotel for viewing. Everything seems fine, terms and conditions were good. The function rooms was a bit disappointing. We were actually looking for ballrooms with high pillar less ceiling with huge dangling chandeliers. But then no choice .... make do with it since there wasn't much option left.

So we asked, what is the reply from the other couple. The Banquet Sales Person told us to give them more time to discuss. We were like, WHAT !!!! You told us that you will have the answer today and now is like sorry the other side haven confirm.

So i insist that i must have a answer today. NOW NOW NOW !!!!! She called the other party and they requested to give us the answer next week. NEXT WEEK AGAIN !?!?!? So i asked, Do i get this place when NEXT WEEKS comes? She said 80%. 80% ?!?!?!?!? So i still have a 20% chance of not getting this place and wasting my time to wait for NEXT WEEK.
My wife jumped in and said. "We are not going to wait for NEXT WEEK. I want the answer NOW!!!" My wife also demanded that since the sales person promised us the answer today, WE MUST HAVE THE ANSWER !!! The sale person called the other party again. Same thing, give them time to consider. Now my wife is getting a bit hot. As usual, anyone stepping on her tail will get it big time from her. "look Miss XXX, they have 80% chance of signing the contract with you and 20% chance of not signing. Where else, i am 100% signing with you.Which one do you choose?? 100% or 80% ??? I can pay you deposit $5000 now if you can signed the contract with us NOW!" The sales person was stunned. So am I. i think my jaw just dropped. Eyeballs glued to my wife.
WOW !!!!!! ..... The sales person quickly call the couple again and said that the had expired they time in considering. Mrs Ang, let me go through the detail of the contract. and later you follow me to the cashier and place a deposit. Ahhhh..... looking at that satisfactory, I am the winner simle on my wife's face.

Now my nightmare!!! 5K deposit !!! Oh my God ..... Where to get 5k !!! paid NETS and the cashier said, "Sorry NETS limit is 2K per day" "Excuse me, could you please hold on a while." took out my phone and dial Citibank Credit Card Dept. "Miss, i am in need of a urgent temporary credit limit increase. Now NOW Now right at this moment to pay a deposit for my wedding banquet. Please help me ..." "Sorry Sir, we couldn't do it right now, we need time to process and to evaluate you financially" "Please, could i speak with your manager regarding this issue as i am in the mids of paying the deposit" Put me on hold for like 15mins and returned with the best answer at that moment of time. "Thank YOu for holding, My officer had reviewed you application for the temporary credit increase and had accepted your request. You may now use your card to pay the deposit. Let me brief you one the terms and conditions of this facility...." "Sorry Miss, i am in a hurry, could you please brief me some other time? thank you"

Case closed. Venue BOOKED !!!!!

Happy smiling faces walked out of the lobby.
