Dresssing up
Had my first real fitting with Kai over the weekend.
Okay, I'll take back every nasty remark, they were REALLY nice, very personable.
I'll still look like a meringue, but nevermind.
Realise that I am getting the gown at a comparatively reasonable price. Someone else I know is paying 4K for a Tan Yoong creation... woooo.
If this is making absolutely no sense, don't worry. It's a bit like that... wait till you hit the local bride forums, all sorts of designer names will be tossed around with gay abandon: (oohhh, a pun, gay... designer... geddit geddit?) More famous ones: Michelle Hui Min, Tan Yoong, Amanda Lee, Ted Wu, Kai, Frederick, oh wait, if you think Singaporeans love acronyms, wait till you meet a Singaporean bride. WG, EG, BP - (wedding gown, evening gown, bridal package in that order...) its a whole different language and these women can go on and on on the forums for months, even a year before their big day. Amazing. They also form little cliques and they'll *actually* meet up. Jeezuz. For a taste of what I'm talking about, click here.
And its not just gowns, we're talking reams and reams of discussion on flowers, make up, shoes.
Wow.
Then, after trying the gown, I spent the entire day cleaning! Damn. Hate housework. Mondo letdown man
Anyways, last weekend was WOMAD as well. That's Eugene living it up. You can't see clearly in the photo but he is clutching a glassful of sparkling red wine.
Hehehhehe
The atmosphere was gorgeous. Everybody on their feet dancing like mad.
Then, Monday hit and I got really really sick. Geez.
Just spent last two days in bed.
Still feeling tinges of nausea and tummy pain. Will update blog another time.
