Breathless..
Oh yeah.. that's how I look now.. HAHA.. tired, yao suan bei tong, exhausted, lonely..
These two days of no work has been a more hectic time for me than it was when I was still at work. Haha. Rushing to the embassy to get my visa processed (& so qiao there was a fire evacuation at Singapore Power Building and I had to wait for nearly an hour), rushing to Sim Lim to buy multi plugs, converters for use in sweden, and to get wireless usb for my mum-in law, and to go around hunting for the cheapest way to produce my wedding favours (which I'm not revealing here so as not spoil the element of surprise).
In addition to that, I have to write wedding invites for my guests and junwei's guests, and it took me 4 straight hours this morning to get it right. *Phew*. I skipped lunch unknowingly cos I was super engrossed. Haha. Next up I had to unpack the $1.4K of goods I bought in Carrefour, and segregate them and then pack nicely into the boxes provided by the shipping company. Wah lauz. In April when jw shipped his stuff, I helped and his parents helped. But now it's the case of me, myself and I. To pack for 3 years of stuff that I'm gg to bring over. You will be shocked at what we are shipping over. 60KG of rice, endless preservatives and cooking sauces, dried food, enough luncheon meat to feed an army, long stream of titbits/biscuits, plus cartons of beer, green tea, ribena, milo, 100 Plus, Iced tea, plus 1 year worth of shower foam, shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste and other toiletries, etc etc. Yeah yeah. I'm gg to a super ulu town, so it's essential to ship all this over and make sure we are fully equipped.
Right. So from folding the boxes, to taping them wif masking tape, to packing, naming them, writing down the contents, labelling the boxes, sealing them, arranging them, it's causing me a super backache today. Just feel like lying down on my bed to rest. Arrghhh. And guess wad, i dismantled my digital piano on my own and packed it in boxes. Took me over an hour but I'm super proud I unscrewed everything, all the nuts and bolts, and I packed the keyboard and the stands nicely. (ermm, not that nice lar, but good enuff). In times like this, I feel like a man. HAHAHA.
AND i still have alot of things on my list to buy and pack. AND I still have many things uncrossed from my wedding to-do list. HAHA. It's gonna be a real hectic, tiring, and busy 3 weeks ahead. I really can't wait for the disco on 26 July. That would mean I settled my shipment and that the wedding was over, and I could really get down to nua-ing. Waha.
I wonder why I always make myself as busy as a bumblebee. Alot of my frenz will say I zi zhao one, cos' I am such a perfectionist sometimes and everything I also wanna do on my own for my wedding, and everything I also wanna make it personalized and special. I dunnoe. Perhaps it's in my blood.
Well well. Gonna have the guo da li in a week or so (you know, before the wedding, the two families will exchange gifts to symbolize good fortune and bliss for the couple). How weird. Us doing this when the groom is not around. But well, we still have to do it. =)
Counting down again.. Yawnz.. It's 3am.. Meivis (my cousin cum make up artist), will definitely scold me if she noes I stay up so late.. HAHA.. Lalalala.. But I'm shuang, and if shuang sleeps at 12midnite, then that's weird.. Woho..
Buaiz buaiz..
