Work & Party

In good moods today :) cos my event ran smoothly and i met nice people there.

Been really busy with pre-events preparations so as you can see, some lag to the posting too :( Well, not expecting to get easy after this event cos upcoming, there will be another 2 events back-to-back.

Earlier this month, before everyone starts to get extremely busy, we had our company 'Summer Party'.
Guess what? Very contridicting to Mr. G's quote on "Queen Bee" - i was voted the "Nicest Person to Work with!" Hee heee... Agree? *Calling ex-PC babes to comment (non-positive comments need not reply)* :D

Besides that, we have a multiple dressing theme for that evening and it was my very first time, so seriously in getting dressed up. Went to costume shops... but as they were too expensive (old, dirty & expensive), we ended up at Mustafa Centre in getting some cheap accessories. Luckily our theme is not that tough afterall - Gothic; which make-up is the key factor. Me being goth...? Let's see :)

This is the party place

 Well~~come!! :)

 My team :) - we won 'Best Dressed Team' too!

 Goth Vs Vampire

 Awards! :)

Brendan - very popular that evening! :)

 KTV Time :)

Lianne, Kelly, Me

He calls me "Queen Bee"

What's the first thing you have in mind for this word - Queen Bee? To me it sounded like someone you would described as very demanding, clamorous, insistent; somewhat fussy :s

This nick or desciption came along when I have some request, erm.. well, quite a number of requests and comments on our wedding pics. Well you know dealing with a Virgo (actually 2, plus Mr. G himself) can be quite annoying at times, I agree - cos perfectionist, we are. Hee....

But our photograher was so patient and nice handling our (ok, ehemm) our my feedbacks. So last night, he sends us the final draft. When Mr. G replied him, he says: This time round, "Queen Bee Xerene" loves it! Hmm... what is Mr. G implying to? So i asked him.. "Dearie what do you mean by "Queen Bee" - he just gave me a Big-wide smile *_* Left me wondering if I'm really Little Ms Fussy.. Hmm... But I think i'm nice not Little Miss Meanie, haha.

*Bleh* Anyway, now happie Xerene is looking forward to wedding video and getting the photos printed :)

Meanwhile, some pics here which i was planning to post up since August, hee hee

One, Two, Three, Four, Five!

Today is a special day to us as it our 5 year mark! :)

Didn't really go 'celebrating' but a short and sweet sms from Mr. G made my day - no more Monday Blues!

A New Journey in Life

Time passes soooo fast!

Blink ~ Gavin is now Mr. G aka Hubby, heee
Blink ~ We are back from our Hokkaido honeymoon
Blink ~ It's been 10 days since we got married!
Blink ~ Back to reality, back to work!!

I'm really glad and happy that our wedding went smoothly, really thanks to our dear friends who helped us throughout the day :) *Thank U!!!*

Besides them, we are so lucky to have engage a team of very good and professional photographer (Yong How from 1950 Photography), videographer (Christopher from Ichiro Films) and music band (A Little Dream) - i still think they are the best! Hee heee :)

Many people asked me.. "So Xerene, how's life after marriage? Do you feel any difference? Or is it only your left hand weighs heavier (now with the ring and wedding band)?"

Hmm.... i must say the difference is not extremely huge but you can feel small little things happening, like hubby dotes on me more! Haha (maybe temporary) but still, i feel Mr. G's kind of sweeter towards me now, geeezz...

Meanwhile, it's only 10pm but i'm feeling sleepie already!! Cos way back in Hokkaido, we slept at about 10pm almost everyday. Yawnzz... And yes we took many many many photos during our trip and i'll be posting them soon :) As of now, nitey mates! Sleep early! :D

Wedding Music Band

Yippies! We finally are confirming A Little Dream (http://alittledream02.livejournal.com/) as our wedding music band :D

Met up with the band last weekend and i guess Mr. G was very pleased. Initially we wanted to save some money, thought of just playing CDs but then again, it seems really too much work to get each and every single song track to be licensed. The hassle of going through to register with 3 different channels just seem too much work; we really have got no time. In any case the trade off is good, heee..

Now.. i can go back and concentrate on my montage and confirming my song list. Any nice songs you can think of suitable for weddings? Please let me know! :)

Home Collections

I'm quite excited every now and then when i see departmental stores going on sale, heee... Love popping by Takashimaya and Tangs to shop for home stuffs and these few weeks pretty i'm happy with our buys :)

Got my WMF pots - don't know whey but i love WMF stuffs. i think they have good quality cooking pots and pans. *Thanks to PC babes for contributing to my WMF collections!*

We're heading down to DiGio in a couple of hours to select our photos... Arrh.. Mixed feelings. On one hand, i hope the photos are nicely taken but on the other, Mr. G and i had an agreement not taking any additional pictures. Haizz... i hope we can do that? *keeping my fingers crossed*

2nd Photoshoot - In SG

Another photoshoot? Hee hee... Yes yes; we have taken up two bridal pacakges. But seriously, not on purpose - believe me :)

It was in fact quite a hassle to go through the procedure again but after the shooting last Friday with DiGio, i kinda changed my mind! I felt really quite different taking pre-wedding shoots in Taiwan and Singapore. Both expereiences are great (with both the nice teams) but if you were to ask me which i prefer, i guess i could only tell you this when we've got the actual albums.

Heh... here's the preview of my MTM wedding gown. i love it to bits.. :) Thanks to Jeslyn from DiGio, she is a fantasic designer and of course, a very nice and patient lady.

Miki - my MUA :)

New Template

It did crossed my mind that if i should stop blogging? Having Facebook being so interactive, linked to iPhones etc... you can simply post updates and photos anytime, anywhere. But on the other hand, i can't bear to close my bloggie, since it has been with me for near three years.

5 minutes backed, i decided to discard the idea. As i logged into blogger.com today, i noticed that they have some new updates! :) As you noticed i have changed my blog template and, at ease. So much flexible as compared to last time where i had a hard time trying to find templates i like or trying to work out the html languages to customized my template. Now i can change my background, customise fonts, layouts and colours with just a few clicks! Well, with the introduction of 'Template Designer', it really helps to revive my interest back to blogging and i could change my template easily everytime i get "bored" over the blog skin. For now, i have chosen a 'celebration' themed background which matches with my wedding prep *Geeez*

So yes, you'll be expecting more updates coming along :)
