Lights.

"I'll love the light for it shows me the way, 
yet I'll endure the darkness because it shows me the stars"

Wedding dinner at Grand Shanghai yday :)

It was a different feel from most weddings that I've been to.

Very grand - in a old chinese kind of way.

To play olden-days songs for the wedding was really apt, esp with such an ambience :)
There was a live band too, and a lady in cheongsam was singing all the melodies.
Her singing was awesome,
and it's a pretty nice sight to see some of the older folks getting up and dancing along ;) 

Oh, and I really liked how the couple did their second march-in.

They danced in to the song of Cha cham bo.

Light-hearted but so memorable. 

It's a cosy wedding alright, and most of the food items were really good,

perhaps with the exception of this Egg white with scallops dish.
Not aesthetically appealing, and the egg white with scallops combination didn't work well at all. 

Of the lot, I particularly liked the Wasabi prawns dish and the fried eel dish.

Fusion-food; that seems to be the trend of late for many wedding dishes.

Wasn't feeling too well since yday, but thankful I could make it for the wedding.

And I'm very happy for this relative who got married :)
I've never seen him look more xing fu.

Went to visit Serena at Mount Alvernia on Friday! 

Baby Ruiqi is sooooo adorable with all the small noises she makes :)

Much as I think that babies all look quite alike,

some babies actually do look more delicate than others.

And Ruiqi has really cute features if you ask me!
Congrats to Serena and Gerald once again on their babybun! :D
I can't wait for her to grow a little bigger so I can buy her pretty frocks :D

Actually, there are many more things I want to blog about,
say Wicked the Muscical, wedding planning and work.
But I have another set of presentation slides to do..
boo.

Was telling Hoon that I've no idea how am I going to juggle wedding planning with work.
Timing is really quite critical right now,
and everything seems to be calling for my attention.
Maybe I should really draw up a detailed timeline,
and to stick closely to it.
I really feel like I'm a gov officer by day, and a wedding planner by night. lol.
I'm fretting so much when my wedding is in Jan next year,
I wonder how Kelly is feeling, esp when it was decided not long ago that she is getting married this Oct!
But I really don't think I'm being overworried or anything,
esp when good venues and vendors are being snapped up like nobody's business!
It's definitely better to plan early, than to start panicking at the very end right? ;)


Alrighto, will update again.
Time to do my last presentation slides. le sigh.
