That's why we only invited 40 family and close friends to our wedding next month

We're going to have the banquet and after-dinner party till 3am! Crazy, I know! That's how the weddings usually go here. My dress is going to be ready in 2 weeks time. I'm so excited! The other things that excite me DIY for the wedding.

Right now I'm watching Flash Forward season finale and craving for chocolates.

I am still here! I am still busy working for school, three more weeks I guess.
And I am watching the World Cup! But I don't like the sound of these vuvuzelas at all .....

Why do they use them if they can't play them rightly??

I so look forward to get summer vacations in the middle of July! I will treat myself with Lush and MAC then, I am sure.

 

[Krasevayadancer]

So I was feeling nostalgic, and decided to visit all of my specktra friends. What have I missed?

 

[Susanne]

Adina!

I just thought of you last weekend! I hope you are fine!!

Well, you have missed a lot of Lush talk here and about the upcoming Disney collection I guess. Greetings to NYC!

 

[LMD84]

hey Adina!

hope you are doing ok and not too rushed and busy!

yep we have been chatting about all sorts - but i know io am most excited for the mac disney collection being the big kid that i am!

hee hee!

It's my day off today and it's only 8am and have already managed to clean downstairs. now just taking a break before i do upstairs. at least if it get it all done early i can relax later in the day!

 

[LMD84]

you know sometimes i am not sure why i bother to clean. I did the kitchen at about 7.30am this morning but i forgot to shut the door. so dylan got in and decided to go through the cupboards and eat food! there is crumbs from bread and pancakes and pasta all over the place! doh!

we even had to put a lock on the kitchen door because he gets in and eats things.... i'm surprised he isn't fat or sick!

bad kitty!

 

[Miss QQ]

I'm sorry that your kitty made a mess in the kitchen after you just cleaned it! He's bad today!

I have trouble posting this afternoon at specktra, not sure why. Kept asking me to login repeatedly.

Could be my computer.

I only watched a bit of the World Cup. The vuvuzelas sound like swamps of locusts or bees to me, especially during the opening match, when it was the loudest. I just thought, don't the spectators get tired of blowing? It must take lots of breath and make the blower thirsty too.

kittykit, I think it is wise of you to invite family and only the close friends. It sounds very fun too! I'm excited too, hope to see pics of your dress.

 

[LMD84]

yes i would love to see pictures of your wedding dress also!

and my kitty dylan is naughty every day!

he has lots on energy and is interested in everything. plus he thinks very highly of himself. for example rather than use the cat flap which leads to the kitty room, he would rather jump up on the door handle and open it that way instead!!

 

[Miss QQ]

I don't have any cats but there's a trait in some cats that I find amusing. They think highly of themselves, like your Dylan! And the stray cat living at my neighbouring flats too. This one even has an air of arrogance.

But it is very cute!

which is how they get away with so many things!

hee hee!

i think i played a game on my laptop for about 2 hours today - this is very sad of me! being a game geek!

hee hee! nick found me the first zelda game, which i love but my brother has our copy, for my laptop and have been glued to it!!

 

[Miss QQ]

I'm a game geek too but I've not tried Zelda before.

oh well i highly reccomend it! the original came out on the nes back in the 1980's!

it was one of the first games that i got with my console. the second one i hate though. but the thrid one which came out on the snes and all the ones after are awesome!

 

[Miss QQ]

Thanks! I'm going to find out more about Zelda. Have heard of it before.

Hope you ladies are having a good week. It's Thursday, and I have to work this Saturday, so it is a long week for me.

 

[LMD84]

my plans for the weekend are non existant!

i always work on a saturday and sunday me and nick need to do some gardening! exciting!

 

[kittykit]

Hi ladies!! How are you all doing?

I've been really busy with work lately and the wedding's just 6 weeks away! I'm really stressed out here. I thought I'd be able to cope with the planning and craziness (family drama)

but I was wrong. I'm so stressed out here and my face started to breakout

The man is going to be away for business in the US again this Sunday! That means I'll be all by myself for 2 weeks.

My wedding planner just told me yesterday the dress should be ready by next week. I can't wait! I hope I haven't put on weight... I don't know.

 

[LMD84]

ooohhh very exciting getting your dress! will you keep it at home or leave it at the bridal store? with mine i left it at the store until the day before the wedding. although when mine arrived (took a couple of months!) i had to have it altered because i wanted crystal straps attached and also i wanted the train removed! weird right?! but i wanted to make sure people could see my shoes!

 

[Miss QQ]

^^ Spoken of like a true shoe addict!

I would like mine to have a train, if I can have at least two gowns. As in one is a wedding gown, and maybe the other is an evening gown. It is common for brides here to have at least 2 or 3 dresses for her wedding.

kittykit, you will be fine. I think with the stress it's unlikely to put on weight but slim down instead.

heck yes! i spent alot of money on jimmy choos and therefore wanted people to see them!

my mum had two dresses. she had a tradional wedding gown and then a stunning teal evening dress for after (seen it in pictures - obviously i wasn't alive back then!

)

 

[Miss QQ]

Jimmy Choos!

Do you still have them and still wear them? Any pics?

Does your mum like fashion too? What a great and bold colour, teal, that she chose! My mum had a white wedding gown with those translucent lace thing going on from her shoulders to her arms. It was fashionable at that time.

The traditional wedding dress for the Chinese is a red dress, called the chongsum. Have you seen those? They look very elaborated with the embroidiery so very few wear it now or opt for a simpler and moden design.
