Happy 2nd Anniversary

10th May, 2010

Um... Gotta be a lil' sentimental today...
Um.. How do I start?
...
...
...

I'm very in love with this man - My hubby YS.
At times, I love him for some reasons;
but most of the time,
I love him simply for who he is...

It's our 2nd wedding anniversary!!
Oh yes, we had our ROM two years back at the Thean Hou Temple,
and we have been husband & wife for two years now! @(^_^)@

Happy 2nd anniversary to Mr. and Mrs. Lee (Ysmm),

and to our blog too (:

Goodbye to our baby :'(

It was a tough day for both dar and myself. A few weeks ago, we made an important decision...


We decided to let go our beloved 'Little Red' whom has been our good companion for the past few years. 'Little Red' was a present from my dad on my graduation. We felt extremely bad for making such decision, but... we did for some reasons...



The day has come... and it's time for us to hand in our little one to the new owner. We felt so hard to let her go. Sigh...

Look at her, isn't she cute? Hope she can find someone who loves her as much as we do. Goodbye babe, you will stay in our heart, forever :'(


Then, we bring our new baby home :)

Today is also a big day for one of my besties Ellie. She looks gorgeous today!

Babe, wish you love and happiness, and may you be blessed in the new chapter in life with Steven. Happy Wedding babe!

Ysmm Wedding on 21-Nov-2009

Finally our wedding is over. Those few days were simply tiring days for the two of us. However, we really had lotsa lotsa fun and the sweet memories were well-written in our hearts!

There are so many people we would like thank.

To our family, heng dai (and bestman), jimui (and bridemaid), relatives and friends, thanks for being there for us, sharing our most special moments with us, and most importantly, thanks for your great support!

To the photographers Kenny and Keat Siong, and the videographer Leo, thank you for the excellent job in capturing the special moments of us!

Will share more photos here, soon. Stay tuned.

Wedding Reception Preview

Finally the wedding dinner in KL is over. Despite some technical issues in the slideshow, it was indeed a wonderful night to both of us.

A million thanks to those who attended our wedding to share one of our happiest moments in life - Our family, relatives, friends, and colleagues. Thanks to Wee Shin, Sze Min, Sze Koon, Poh Eng and Brenda for your assistance. Thanks to Kenny and Keat Siong for being our photographers to capture the special moments of us.

We truly appreciate it!

Attached herewith is a photo taken by abe

Thank you for being at our wedding and making it a perfect night for us. Thanks for the wishes, presents, and not forgetting 'Ang Pow' :) What's next? Our actual wedding day and the reception in Ipoh!

Our sincere apology for any inconvenience caused.

P/S: MM is down with flu and fever now. Hope she will get well soon.

Wedding Preparation - 过大礼

Tomorrow will be one of the big days before our actual wedding day. Yes that's right, 过大礼 (Guo Da Li).

We have been busy with our 过大礼 preparation for the past few days. Yesterday, dar and myself went back to our hometowns separately for the preparation.

过大礼Checklist is a rather long list. e.g. Lotus, dates, sugar, salt, noodle, hard liquor, fruits etc. The most important items for the entire 过大礼 event is no other but 礼金 (Cash gifts) and 礼饼 (wedding pastry). Thanks dar and my mom-in-law for preparing all the necessary items. Really appreciate it :)

Our 过大礼 will be on tomorrow. Dar shall be arriving my place at 11am for the event. Hence he shall depart from Ipoh at 7.30am!

Guess tomorrow will be another tiring day for both of us. Gotta head to bed soon! Tomorrow will be a great day! ;)

Pre-Wedding Phobia?

Sorry for not being able to blog recently. We have not forgotten our blog. Nonetheless, we are very busy and our schedule is tied up with our wedding preparation.

'You don't want to get married twice after all the troubles in preparing a memorable wedding and the amount of the money you've spent or going to spend.' This is a Quote from someone... us..? or perhaps me..? Well... who cares.

Despite the money spent, (85% of our savings are gone now, sigh) we find wedding is very troublesome, no kidding. And, Chinese wedding is even more troublesome, especially when your parents are very demanding and they are the 'just-follow-rules' kind of people.


If you ask me what is a wedding to me...? Well, it is supposed to be a new beginning of another chapter in life for a couple, and hence it shall be a once-in-a-lifetime experience that shall be remembered for the entire life of the couple. However, in order to start the new chapter in life, the couple need to go through lotsa lotsa obstacles (that's right, wedding preparation) that are trying to challenge the couple's patient. Okay I am about to exploit!

Besides, guest list is always an issue. Seriously, it evolves just like the earth! Our KL guest list started from 25 tables to 33 tables, and to 43 tables now. Even the reception venue booked cannot accommodate this amount of people and we need to look for alternatives. This is seriously crazy!

Luckily things are so far going well in Ipoh. Thank god. (Just in case if you do not know, we have 2 wedding receptions, one in KL and another in Ipoh. Hence we need to take care of our family, friends & relatives at two locations.)

Seriously, I do not enjoy the process, not at all. Maybe I have got pre-marriage phobia. It is so stressful and sometimes things just pissed me off.

I always question myself recently... 'Is this what I want?'; 'Is everybody facing the same situation as we are now?'; 'Is it worth it to spend all our savings just for a wedding?';blah blah blah... and the list goes on.

These questions keep bugging me, and I am just so tensed!! Sometimes I wonder how nice it would be if the money is spent on our honeymoon...?

Sigh I really don't know. I'm trying so hard to gain some, at least a little excitement, but I just find it is so hard... Sigh... God bless us please. I need a break. What I am longing for is actually the pre-honeymoon in Phuket right after our wedding. How sad it is.

Wedding Photos - Where a blissful marriage begins...

Preview of some of our wedding photos taken few weeks ago...

Day 1: Indoor Studio Session

Day 1: Outdoor Photo Session

Day 2: Outdoor Photo Session

We have taken 400 photos, and have gotten the softcopies with no touch-up; nevertheless we are only allowed to choose 40 to be included in the albums. What a tough decision to make...

1st Anniversary + Random Post

A while ago, we just celebrated our very 1st anniversary after our ROM.

Dar bought me a hand bouquet and it was sent to my office. Surprised!! This was very sweet and I was a lil' touched *sob sob*

Below are some random photos of our pets taken on the same day.

I posted em' here.., cos I find my puppy lil' Yellow is very photogenic :D Isn't he cute?

I never realized it until dar shot some nice photos of him -_-"

Pre-Weds Photo Session... Continue

During a pre-wedding photo session, a beautiful bride usually takes longer time for make-up than a groom.


Hence, while waiting for my Ms. Lovely Wife for her hair-do and makeup, I started to play around with my toy - that was to take photos around.


And here are some random shots..,


Noticed that her right eye was a lil' redish, it was due to allergy.

Finally... here comes my gorgeous wife, and we were ready for the shooting session.

Talking about the wedding photo session, our wedding package comes with 8 poses or styles, hence it may take a whole day for the photo shooting. The photo session was supposed to be done in one day, however, we were a lil' unlucky on the 1st day.

On the photo shooting day, we arrived at Bliss (the bridal house) at 10.30am, and started the makeup session. Once done, we proceeded with the photo shooting session, that lasted for half a day and we managed to complete photo shooting for 4 poses in the studio. It was already 4.30pm so we quickly rushed to Kellie's Castle for outdoor session.

When we arrived at Kellie's Castle, the sky was a little gloomy, and it seemed like it was gonna rain soon. As expected, after snapping a few photos, it started to rain. Sigh. After grabbing a few snaps in the castle, we decided to go back to the studio. As it was raining very heavily, our bodies were all wet. Sigh.

It was already 6.30pm, we were very hungry as we did not have our lunch, and our bodies are all wet and cold, sigh.

Upon arrival at studio, we quickly grabbed a few bites of the "chap fan" the staff prepared for us and continue the photo session. Nonetheless, it was already 7++ pm so the photographer decided to arrange another photo session for us.

Therefore, we ended up having a 2-day session.

The session on 2nd day was rather relaxed as compared to the 1st day's. The outdoor session was rather tough, the weather was fine, though. This was because the photographer suggested a rather odd place for the outdoor session, and we sacrificed a lot for it. I'm not gonna disclose it. *Grin* Attend my wedding reception and you will know.

Overall, the photo session was tiring and stressful, but it was a very good and memorable experience for both dar and myself. We're looking forward for the photo selection soon! Can't wait to see them!

I'd also like to thank my buddy MK for helping me in looking for Lilies for my photo session. Thank you very much! Really appreciated it :)

I hope you like the prep photos posted by YS earlier, too.

Pre-Weds Photo Session

Just finished a two-day wedding photo session in Ipoh. The session took 2 days due to the bad weather (will blog more about what had happened), but thank god we made it :)


We are really exhausted after the two-day session. It was very tiring but yet it has given us unforgettable experiences and moments in life. Thank you to Ys and Mm for making this happen. It really means a lot to the both of us.

Happy 1st Annivesary!

Time flies, and it has been a year since their ROM day.


Happy 1st anniversary to Mr. Hubby and Ms. Wife :) May they be blessed always. Happy 1st anniversary to ys-mm.blogspot.com too!

Wedding Gowns Selection

During the weekend, dar and I went to the bridal house for wedding gown selection. The chosen gowns will be used for wedding photo shooting session in June. It is my very 1st time in my entire life to wear wedding gowns! I was so 'kan-jeong' lah!

It was a vey tiring day. I tried more than 30 gowns, but am only allowed to choose 8 (2 from the designer collection and 6 from the VIP collection)!! Argh!! what a tough decision to make!! Dar claimed that it was the toughest decision to make in my life -_- duh!

Basically, the gowns that I have tried are all very nice! And it's no surprise that it took me 2 days to make up my mind.

Oops, almost forget to mention, I did not choose the gowns in the photos above, as there are others that are so much nicer that them. I like the 2 gowns, though.

Happy Belated Birthday to Me

It was 10th Jan, 2009, and it was my birthday. Hmm... I don't why but I am a lil sentimental today... and I feel like sharing some of the important moments in 2008 with our friends and readers here o_O"

1. Dar had given me a surprise last year that he bought me very lovely and cute smiley cupcakes, and it did touch my heart T_T So so so so touched...

2. Revisited Melbourne with my family and dar. We had a great time there! Victoria is simply the place to be!

3. Started my new job as a Business Intelligence Consultant, and it was one of the very important turning point in my career. However, it turned out to be otherwise... Anyways, let's not talk about it now.

4. I went for registration of marriage (ROM) with dar, and am officially or rather legally Mrs. Lee :)


5. Started a couple blog with dar since our ROM. Nonetheless, it is just an ordinary blog with very low traffic -___-

6. Went to Perhentian Island with dar, brothers & gf, and cousins. We had a wonderful time there. One of the moments that excited us was the finding nemo journey.

7. I have finally got my postgraduate diploma certification from Staffordshire University, UK, and have started to work on my final dissertation ;)

8. Due to work pressures, I made to silly and rushed decision, that was to cut the long hair that I have been keeping for 3 years. Dar was rather upset as I did not keep him informed on the decision made and action taken. I really regret it, now.

9. I got to know some wonderful people at work, the job is stressful and I am struggling... Perhaps I might give up one day. Nonetheless at this point in time I'm still trying.

10. Celebrated the 4th birthday with dar, and he had got a new cute mini lappy as birthday pressie this year, he named it 'QQ'.

Thanks dar, for the lappy, birthday cake and dinner :) Thanks to my cousins for the supper on my birthday! Thanks to all my buddies on the birthday greetings too!! Thank you for remember my birthday :) That's really sweet of you.

Finally, I do hope that my birthday wishes will come true.

Update:

One of the important things that happened to me in 2008 was I have got CHEATED by YogaZone (if you have heard of news on YogaZone bankcrupcy), darn! I lost RM3988! WTF!! Again, dar was upset as I signed the package without discussing with him T_T Sigh...

Three Busy Days & One Wedding

My baby and I went back to Ipoh to attend my sister's wedding ceremony.

we were actually quite looking forward to this event.


Almost of all of my family members and relatives (father & mother side - Uncles, Aunties, cousins etc) attended the wedding and i haven't met with some of them for quite some times.


I had a bittersweet feeling after the wedding ceremony, I miss my sister, sigh.


And I had a bad headache. It was all because of the business of the wedding thing... I never thought it would be so busy (and messy). I've underestimated the situation.


To all our relatives and friends who sacrified their valuable weekends and holiday just to attend my sister, Brenda's wedding, you will never know how grateful on your time spent. We really appreciated it.


Though there were some unhappy moments, we truly hope Brenda can live happily ever after with her hubby.
