Back to work

Finally our big day is over and now we're back to work. Last week was quite packed for us. On 20 Nov Thur, we took leave to settle some stuffs. Firstly, we brought things like 嫁妆, clothes and things we bought for the house (eg. thermo-flask and cloths) to our new house. There, we cleaned up and unpacked our stuffs. We also 安床 before we leave for Suntec to drop off wines and ang bao box at Pearl River. After that, we went to our bridal studio to pick up our gowns and coats. Lastly, I went for manicure and pedicure while Justin went back to our house to see our coffee table delivery. Fri was more relaxing as we've settled most of our things. We only went back to the studio to change the coats and collect flowers. I was so nervous that I only slept for about 3h.

22 Nov Sat, was one of the best day in my life. Really had fun meeting people and I really thank everyone for attending and the Bros & Sis for helping out in the wedding. Although I was so so so nervous for the entire day and I couldn't find the necklace and earrings the makeup artist lent me, everything else went on smoothly and I really feel so fortunate. I love you Justin hubby!

I'll upload some photos when I got them. Probably some time in Dec when we're back from Australia. :)

Finally bought a microwave

We went to Harvey Norman on Sun 9 Nov as they were having some hot sales. There, we saw this double grill/convention microwave oven selling at $329 (usual $429).
All along I have been looking at Panasonic microwaves and those without a pull-open door. However, this Sharp microwave is so attractive, in terms of price, functions and appearance. Using our $100 voucher, we bought it and added an additional $55 for 4 more years of warranty, a total of 5 years.
We also went to Carrefour and bought a blue grocery trolley at $16.90 and a clock for $42.90. The design is really nice and suits our living room well as it's mainly glossy black in colour. Looking forward to hanging it up. :)
