Wedding Preparation Blog

I am lazy. Period.

So fingers crossed for this wedding blog thingy.

I am really getting excited about this and I will start my first post on the engagement followed by the preparation details.

In retrospect, getting married young did not cross my mind at all until now. I am truly happy and blessed to have made my decision.

Upcoming checklist:

1. Choose dinner banquet - most likely Crowne Plaza (Changi Airport). Its new and I love the open sky ceiling concept.
2. Church venue booking + marriage pastor
3. Choose wedding bands ! (already chosen) Tiffany channel setting wedding band to match my engagement ring :)

4. Finalise on guest list
5. Wedding Package + Photographer
6. Weight management programme - After the recent gown fitting with Yuying and marie, it dawned on me that size is indeed important. I am going for made to measure. Heck the weight management, I still love my calorie laden food. See how.

and tonnes of other preparation. So one down, many more to go. At least the wedding bands part is finalised.

I am still very much alive

Ok, I need to resurrect my blog. It's been a while and I do get people asking me where the hell I have been...


I don't facebook, msn and blog as often as I did when it was still the good old days of uni life. No words can describe fully how much I miss schooling. I can shop and slack as much as I want to. Now, after earning my own money, I feel that shopping too much is bad. T_T

My parents would be happy to hear this relevation coming from me. Oh well. I save more than I spend now.

Small updates aside, in 2012, I will be having a change of home address plus having made the biggest investment in my life.

The signs of adulthood.

*Not going to blog about Turkey trip - lazy to upload the pictures...*

Till the next time.

Psalm 23 (for the workplace)

Everyone should know Psalm 23 in the bible. It is like the most famous passage in the bible. My mum sent me the following modification of Psalm 23 for the work place. Hah! For those who know Psalm 23, may it encourage and deepen your faith in trusting God to enable us to prosper in your workplace and to bless the work of your hands.

Psalm 23(For the Work Place)

The Lord is my real boss, and I shall not want.
He gives me peace, when chaos is all around me.
He gently reminds me to pray and do all things without murmuring and complaining.

He reminds me that He is my source and not my job.
He restores my sanity everyday and guides my decisions
that I might honor Him in all that I do.
Even though I face absurd amounts of e-mails (that's me!), system crashes,
unrealistic deadlines, budget cutbacks, gossiping co -workers,
discriminating supervisors and an aging body that doesn't cooperate every morning,
I still will not stop---for He is with me!

His presence, His peace, and His power will see me through.
He raises me up, even when they fail to promote me.
He claims me as His own, even when the company threatens to let me go.
His Faithfulness and love is better than any bonus cheque
His retirement plan beats any 401k there is! When it's all said and done,
I'll be working for Him a whole lot longer and for that
I BLESS HIS NAME!!!!!!

Work is busy and demanding (!), which is good. I am enjoying what I am doing even though I hardly have time to surf net and slack. I meet people, talk, rush around and the best thing is, my work is not deskbound! :) Really, never a dull moment.

People, if you have super experience IT professional friends (at least 3 years' experience), let me know. I need to recruit 100 plus more people!!!! Yeah, in such times, we are still vigourously employing. I am looking for a junior temp assistant to assist me. So if you are looking or have friends who don't mind doing temp work, let me know. :)
