A few days ago my best and oldest friends got married. It was a day filled with joy and love ♥ Here are the few things you’ll learn when your best friend gets married, especially if you’re one of the bridesmaids like me. =P
You’ll be almost as worked up about everything going well as the bride herself. You’ll worrying about everything, to excitement, to happiness, and there’ll even be some tears too. It’s all so overwhelming and emotional feelings you’ll go thru on the day is huge. The time before the actual wedding ceremony, you’ll be rushing around making sure every lil thing is going according to plan. After the actual ceremony part is over and you’ll feel a sudden sense of exhaustion. But most of all you’ll feel this incredible sense of joy, pride and love for your friend as she embarks on this new chapter of her life. It’s not everyday that you watch a friend you’ve known since you were 5 years old get married and start a new life. Yes, the emotion may get to you, but you’ll want to relive each moment with her as you’re just so proud! Plus, playing such an important part in your best friend’s wedding will create special memories for the both of you. ♥

The day we’ve been dreaming about is finally here. Today is the first day of your new life with him. I am honored to serve as your bridesmaid today. I wish you both a lifetime of happiness and love. I hope he fulfills all his vows and I hope he promises more as time goes by and I want you to know that no matter what, I’ll always be there for you. I wish you a lifetime of laughs, an eternity of love, and an abundance of joy and happiness. May the glow of love and happiness from your marriage day be with you for the rest of your lives. Amen.
Time passes so quickly and it's our 300days together already. So many things happened throughout these days, both happy and unhappy moments. But guess what? We still managed to pull thru this together. We quarreled, we teared, we learnt and we treasured. We made it thru all these despite having numerous quarrels and problems. "All guys are the same," is what I told you on our first met. Today, I take that back, because you are so special and best of all, you are mine! I'm really vvvvvv blessed to have such an awesome person as my boyfie, my buddy and my soulmate. xoxo #LeslieWee
For Chinese couples, door games are a fun and lighthearted tradition to look forward to wedding celebration. The groom arrive with the brides bouquet and his male entourage at the brides home and the bride will wait in her room and her bridesmaids will begin the door games. The games can get very creative, embarrassing and the groom will not be allowed to see his bride until he and his male entourage have passed all the games. There are more games to play and it all depends on the bridesmaids. I have asked the bride on what type of door games would she likes to play and I have complied her ideas to few games. XD
Melting heart ♥
( 爱融化了 )
Have a key hidden inside the ice, the groom must melt it without breaking it and speak out 10 reasons why you love the bride. This looks like simple but not really. All the reasons must be truth and from groom's heart.
Taste of life ♥
( 甜酸苦辣 )
Marriage is about going thru the good or bad together, challenges in life which have to be faced by the couple together and a bit of pleasant surprises from time to time to spice up the relationship. So a marriage go thru the following 4 flavors: sweet, sour, bitter, and spicy. This is test the groom’s ability to cope with what marriage may bring.
Poopy pampers♥
( 大便pampers )
Fill a pampers with melted chocolate, minced banana and peanut spread. The groom and his male entourage have to lick the ''poopy'' out of the diaper.
Balloon pop♥
( 踏破气球找钥匙 )
Pop the balloon and get the key.
Q & A ♥
( 爱的测验 )
The groom must correctly answer the questions asked by the bridesmaids about the bride and their relationship. For every incorrect answer, the groom need to pay ''angpow$''. The money is then equally distributed among the bridesmaids.
Declaration of love ♥
( 爱的宣言 )
This is to test the groom's sincerity and love for the bride.
More ideas of the games:
✦ Head point to the chair and make 10 turns around the chair, and walk a straight line.
✦ Line the boys up, The first guy must pass a piece of seaweed to the next guy with his lips until it reaches the last guy in line.
✦ Ask the groom and the groomsmen to put their feet into a large pot of ice water. There will be some coins in the pot. They will be asked to pick up the coins using their feet and toes only.
✦ Head point to the chair and make 10 turns around the chair, and walk a straight line.
✦ Wearing the slippers with the knobby bits and do 20 times star jumps.
✦ Name all the bridesmaids.

Sometimes people come into your life to serve some sort of purpose and teach you a lesson. They might affect your life in some way. And sometimes things happen to you at the time that may seem unacceptable and unfair, but in reflection soon you will realize that without overcoming those obstacles you would have never realized your strength. As I getting older I realized that the worst things in life will lead to the best things in life and everything will clear up eventually. Thank You Lord for all that's happened in my past. I'm more able to cope with depression. I think I'm a better person because of pain makes me stronger, tears make me braver, and heartbreak makes me wiser =,]
I got my first gel manicure today and I'm pretty pleased with the result. This is definitely the best manicure I've ever gotten. Although their prices are slightly higher than the average price but worth to pay!
Atmosphere : ★★★★★
- Clean establishment and the place was spacious, very trendy Tiffany blue decor and totally relaxing.
Service : ★★★★★
- The customer service was the best I've ever experienced at a nail salon. The manicurist who did my nails was so friendly. They even provide tea and pamper you with warm towel. They are so meticulous and make sure that you are satisfied before you leave.
Quality : ★★★★★
- Brand name polishes such as O.P.I, Etude House, BANDI...etc
Overall 5 stars for the service, cleanliness, environment and results.
I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for pedicure/manicure and an outstanding relaxing spa experience. I really appreciated the quality, the friendly staff, and the nice facility. I'll be sure to come back for more pampering! =D
PS : call ahead of time for reservations as they always seem to be packed on the weekends. =)
Just watched this with boyfie yesterday. This is a story people from diff backgrounds who meet each other by chance, and change each others lives forever...
Lou is a silly, charming girl with a sense of humor and fantastic imagination from a small town. Will has a wonderful life, he go wherever he wants and do whatever he desires. But...that was before the accident happens... Lou loses her job at The Buttered Bun tea shop. She goes to the job center and got offered as a caretaker of a paralyzed man ( Will ) after several failed attempts. There is no love at first sight when they met. Lou plans out a marvelous series of events in order to make his life better. Louisa discovered that Will has given his parents 6months and they must bring him to Switzerland for euthanasia. Lou wants to change his mind and prove to Will that his life is worth living. But for Will, death is preferable to a paralyzed life because he cannot deal with the pain and suffering of his disability. The movie ends with Lou reading Will's last words in a letter, that tell her to 'live well'.at a cafe in Paris after Will's death. Totally sobbed at the end...
I really loved this movie and characters a lot especially Lou. I loved watching both of them change and grow as they learned to appreciate. This movie revealed love but also the harsh reality of life. Heartbreaking, yet inspiring. ♥
So I watched Warcraft ( the movie was based on the video game ). I never played WoW ( World of Warcraft ) and I had no expectations on the movie but I have to say the movie was entertaining! The visual effects were vv good. ( Some visuals were too strong for children ). The film begins with an Orc warrior ( Durotan ), his pregnant wife ( Draka ) and their clan leaving their perishing world by passing thru a portal. On the other side is Azeroth. The world of Azeroth lead by humans and it is the birthplace of many races, humans, hobbits, elves...etc. They attack the humans once they arrived...Want to know more? Click the link below for more further information.
There's a vague love story between Lothar and Garona that just feels rushed and pointless. For those who have yet to watch the movie, don't pay attention to the critics, try to watch some of the Warcraft trailer videos, as you make sense of the story you might enjoy the movie more! It might feel like Lord of the Ring to some sense but definitely worth to watch =)
It's month of Ramadhan and the bazaars are back in town! Muslims view it as the holy month. The prayer and fasting become the focus of their everyday lives for an entire month. Every year I looking forward to Ramadhan because of the bazaar! Foods and drinks from diff states in Malaysia can be easily found in all Bazaar Ramadhan. Lemang rendang always one of the food that comes into mind when it comes to Bazaar Ramadhan. Oh ya be prepare for a bigger crowd if you go to Bazaar at 5pm+ as it gets really busy. There are quite a few Ramadan bazaars in KK but the one bazaar which is quite popular is at Lok Kawi military camp. My first impression of bazaar Ramadhan at Lokkawi military camp is too cluttered and too crowded. However, do beware of snatch thieves as it's too crowded.
Watched The Conjuring 2 last night. I was wondering how good it would be after the first one. Tbh The Conjuring 2 isn't quite as good as The Conjuring 1 but it's still pretty great. The Conjuring was one of my favorites in recent years. One of my fav things about these films is James Wan's directional style. Some people can't get enough of scary movies. They've seen tons of scary films. Yeah that's me =D What makes a scary movie scarier is knowing that it is based on a true story. Knowing that somebody actually went thru the terror in reality is something that does not let one sleep easily. The Conjuring 2 is based on a true story of the Enfield haunting.

The viral Facebook post:
A 65y/o man died in a cinema auditorium last week while watching The Conjuring 2. The incident occurred at the Sri Balasubramaniar Cinema in Tiruvannamalai, a town in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. The man complained of chest pains during the film’s climax, and fainted shortly afterwards. He was rushed to the nearby Old Government Hospital, where doctors pronounced him dead. Medics ordered his body to be sent to the Tiruvannamalai Government Medical College Hospital for post-mortem but, according to the Times of India, the cadaver, and the person charged with transporting it, have both gone missing. While there are no doubt rational explanations for both the man’s death and the disappearance of his body, the story has fuelled a wave of supernatural panic on social media that has accompanied the film’s release.
Another viral Facebook post:
About a week ago, Singaporean couple Damian Ng and his girlfriend claimed that they had horrifying experience during their trip to Miri, Sarawak after watching The Conjuring 2. The couple had just returned from their movie, and retreated to their room in the Imperial Hotel at 230am. Feeling exhausted after a whole night out and they decided to take a quick nap. Damian’s girlfriend woke up 15 minutes later to brush her teeth, and noticed something really strange in the washroom – a cross drawn on the bathroom mirror. Thinking that this is a prank by her boyfriend, she woke him up to ask him about it. They noticed something amiss when Damian had know knowledge about it, and assumed that she saw the one pranking him. Things got really strange when they went back into the bathroom and saw something horrifying. The cross that was on the mirror was fresher than it was previously, with water droplets flowing down one side, as if just done moments ago. Realising that this is no prank and now terrified, they quickly called the hotel up to change their rooms. In his Facebook post, Damain gave his thanks to the hotel staff, who were kind enough to assist despite the late hour.
The movie plot:
The film begins with paranormal investigators EdandLorraine Warren documenting the Amityville murders at the Amityville house in 1976, to determine if a demonic presence was truly responsible for Ronald DeFeo Jr. mass murdering his family on November 13, 1974. During a seance, Lorraine is drawn into a vision where she relives the murders and discovers a demonic nun figure, before seeing Ed being fatally impaled. After a struggle, Ed is able to break her out of the vision.
One year later, in 1977, the Hodgson family begins to discover strange occurrences within their home in London, England. Janet, the second oldest of four children, is seen sleepwalking and conversing in her dreams with an entity who insists that the house is his. Eventually, all siblings of the house and their mother Peggy witness paranormal events occurring right before their eyes, forcing them to seek refuge with their neighbors. When the media attempts to interview the Hodgsons, Janet is possessed by the spirit of Bill Wilkins, an older man who previously lived and died in the house, and who wants to claim his territory. As Janet begins to show more signs of demonic possession, the story eventually reaches the Warrens, who are requested to assist the local Church in the investigation. Lorraine, in fear of her vision of Ed's death becoming reality, warns him not to get too involved in the case, and reluctantly agrees to travel to London.
While staying at the Hodgson residence, Ed and Lorraine consult with other paranormal investigators, including Maurice Grosse and Anita Gregory, on the legitimacy of the case. They also attempt to communicate with Wilkins' spirit, hoping to talk him out of harassing the family. One night, after the Hodgsons witness Janet being possessed, Gregory presents video evidence of Janet purposely wrecking the kitchen as if for a prank. Ed and Lorraine are then convinced to leave the family on their own, but soon they discover that the spirit of Wilkins is only a pawn, being manipulated to haunt Janet, while the true mastermind is the demonic spirit that has been haunting Lorraine in her visions.
Ed and Lorraine return to the Hodgson residence, only to find Janet being possessed once more and the rest of the Hodgsons locked outside the house. A lightning strike hits a tree near the house, leaving a jagged stump resembling the object that impaled Ed in Lorraine's vision. Ed ventures inside the house alone, and finds Janet standing near the window, ready to leap onto the stump and commit suicide. He manages to grab Janet in time, but finds himself holding onto a curtain that is being torn from its rings by his and Janet's weight. Lorraine remembers that she wrote the demon's name – Valak – in her Bible during her Amityville vision. She enters the house and confronts Valak, addressing it by name and successfully condemning it back to Hell. Janet is freed of her possession, and Lorraine pulls her and Ed to safety.
A text epilogue reveals that Peggy lived the rest of her life in that house and died in 2003, sitting in the same chair in which Wilkins had died 40 years earlier. Upon returning home, Ed adds an item to his and Lorraine's collection – "The Crooked Man" zoetrope toy owned by Peggy's youngest child – placing it near April's music box and the Annabelle doll. The couple then dance to "Can't Help Falling in Love" by Elvis Presley.
P/S. Last night I couldn’t sleep for hearing about the strange noises....
Being chosen to be a bridesmaid sounds like a warm and fuzzy privilege, a lot of fun, and an excuse to get a nice new dress. Wedding can be stressful and as a bridesmaid, I'm willing to help her sort out everything for the wedding. The wedding is in a few days, there's going to be loads of guests and it sounds lovely and its going to be fun and all but I'm just very nervous, I feel awkward about walking down the aisle and having people look at me. I know I'm only a bridesmaid, all attention will be on the bride and groom but I just cant help feeling this way.
'' Sunsets, like childhood, are viewed with wonder not just because they are beautiful but because they are fleeting. '' - Richard Paul Evans
I miss my childhood memories =,) As you know, when we getting elder we always miss our old days. Btw I like sunset but that is because I rarely see a sunrise lol. I love to watch the clouds with the vivid red sky like dancing flames on the horizon. Idk why but there is just something magical about watching the sunset. Sunset view is one of the stunning view of the day and generally considered as grieved moment of the day by most people ( including me ) as it symbolizes the passing of another day in life. Beautiful sunset can be viewed along the long stretch of beach and hill at diff locations around KK and I'm so blessed to have the opportunity to enjoy breathtaking sunsets almost every day of the year. Watching sunset with a refreshing drink in hand is truly a relaxing way to end a chaotic day =)
Boyfie and I recently attended my friend's son's Mickey Mouse themed birthday at May Flower restaurant. ( Heavy rains hit KK today but luckily didn't lead to flood ). There were many people present on the occasion. I did not know most of them but I guess they would be mostly her relatives. =P Oh 宝贝you’re growing up so quickly. You’re already 3 years old today! Happy Birthday xoxo =3
I wrapped the adorable(LOL) pressie. Oh ya not forgotten to add some decorations to make it looks interesting. All the decos, banner, door gift for kids was created, printed and packed by my friend. She is so talented on creating all these! In addition she's so good at baking and loves to share with other people too.
Real happiness reflects not thru face, but eyes. This photo truly express the happiness ♥ I feel their emotions and happiness. Wish her life filled with endless happiness and endless love ♥
Every relationship gets boring and it will get boring after you've been together for years. It's always fun in the beginning. It's always exciting when you're getting to know each other. It's always thrilling to chase one another. Eventually, it gets hard. Eventually, it becomes difficult. Eventually, it drains you. That's when people tend to quit and go look for someone else because "the spark is gone" and they want to feel wanted and admired and loved again. But listen, that's not how it's supposed to be. No, that's not how it works. It doesn't have to be that way. Even when it does get boring, that's when you're supposed to remember why you're with that person in the first place and it's never too late to find that happiness that you both once found together because the truth is, it's always been there and it never left. Even when it feels like feelings are fading, that's when you're supposed to know how much this person means to you and what losing them would be like because being able to love someone even when they're being hard to love shows that your feelings never left. Even when it feels like you're done, that's when you're supposed to realize that no matter who you're with, it's always going to get "boring" so you might as well be with someone who's willing to love you unconditionally and never give up on you. - Teddy Nguyen
Indeed, relationship is all about ↑ ups and ↓ downs and it's a matter of choice. Whenever I feel like "the spark is gone", I will do everything to keep the ''fire burning''. Undeniable I will get bored sometimes but there are other things to consider before the love fades. Everyone will eventually get bored at the end if they stop making the effort. It's ALL ABOUT EFFORT!think about it! Not putting enough effort can kill a relationship. E.g : calling you to see how you're doing, trying to work thru problems and communicate clearly instead of just giving up/running away, bringing you food after a long day at work, planning dates and outings, occasionally doing things without being specifically asked...etc. Remember, effort is a HUGE part in making a relationship work.
*Blink and wink*...here we are in the middle of the year!! Time is flying and by the looks of it, it’s not slowing down anytime soon. my June calendar terrifies me a bit. It’s been filling up with good things for the past few weeks. One of the best things is my bestie is getting married and I am honored to be her bridesmaid! Congratz Ribena! Btw the weather is fickle these days. it's sunny in the morning, but it might rain in the afternoon. That’s the type of weather that will gets us sick. Be sure to drink some extra water when you're out in warm weather. =)
Yay boyfie got me a pinkish Hello Kitty shirt!!! NEVER TOO OLD TO BE YOUTHFUL! Being youthful is not about age or looks as much as it’s more so a free spirit with a happy outlook on life. Agree or not? =P To be honest, I dislike cats but this kitty character is an exception. ( Oh btw on year 2014, Sanrio revealed Hello Kitty is not a cat, she is a personification of a cat ). Everyone who knows me is already aware that I am obsessed in love with Hello Kitty. I've got hundreds of Hello Kitty stuffs but I don't remember my first encounter with Hello Kitty XD Last but not least, May God bless us with happiness and joy which we missed in the last month. xoxo
