Huat and Min are an Item
Phew! What a scare Leng gave us last week! It was stomach flu after all! I am happy to announce that she is fully recovered and NOT pregnant! Silly girl! Oh, and I am sorry to hear that you were not selected for the Paris Baking Course, dear. Why didn’t you tell us that you were thinking of having the wedding earlier because of this? Anyway, the good thing is there is no need to rush the wedding anymore.
Back to the wedding, I need John and Leng to confirm the number of tables for the wedding. Last week it was 55 tables but this week, it seems to have grown to 58! Your mom added the tables yesterday because she said the old neighbours from Malacca are coming too.
I will be contacting Norman the photographer this week to discuss the possible locations for the shoot. Thanks to Hui Min for the contact (he seems a little young at 28, are you sure he is experienced, Min?) I will ask him to post on this blog soon since he needs to be part of the planning.
How is the ring appointment, John? Have you arranged a time to go ring shopping with Leng and her mom? Remember, a ring has to be three to four times your salary, at the minimum, ok? Haha!
Hey Boon Huat, I’m putting you in charge of the special item for the wedding dinner. Try to do something creative, ok? Without singing, of course. 
Hui Min, please help Boon Huat with this since you have access to all of Hui Leng’s photos for the slideshow.
By the way, did any of you change telephone numbers? I received this strange SMS saying “I know who you are. I am watching you.” I didn’t recognise the number though.

Not me. Haha! Maybe you have a stalker or secret admirer? I am so sorry for the confusion last week. You guys! Jumping to conclusions so fast just because I threw up and asked for the wedding to be moved up. I will check with Mom about the tables, you know how excited she is about this wedding. Anyway, John, your bonus can offset the extra tables right?

What? More people? I’m not sure how much I’m getting this year. Bonus is a private thing, don’t discuss it here please. All this is getting a little out of hand. I am feeling very aggravated by the changes and rising costs of this wedding, guys. We have not practised good risk management here.

I really don’t want a “cheap” wedding, John. This is the Big Day for us and our parents and we should spare no expense.
September 4, 2009, 2:40 pm |
You mean, Big Day for YOUR parents. Leng, you have to rein your mother in.
September 4, 2009, 2:41 pm |
Mom just wants what’s best for us.
September 4, 2009, 2:42 pm |
Your mother just wants what best for her.

Oi! Don’t need to fight lah. John I borrow you some money lah. Money no worry. Love more important.

Boon Huat, I took this off Wikipedia. Hope it helps:
In many cases, English words take on the meaning of their Chinese counterparts, resulting in a shift in meaning. One example is “borrow”/”lend”, which is commonly mixed up in Singlish because it is derived from the same Mandarin word, “借” (jiè), which can mean to either lend or borrow.

Oi… Hui Min you too cheem for me lah. Eh, Anna! You sure you want me to do the special item? My English is not that good leh.
September 4, 2009, 2:45 pm |
Don’t worry, Huat. I will help you with it. How about meeting tomorrow and discussing this?
September 4, 2009, 2:46 pm |
Onz! I also want to ask you for your help with a work thing.
September 4, 2009, 2:47 pm |
Your first date! So sweet!
September 4, 2009, 2:48 pm |
Oi!
September 4, 2009, 2:49 pm |
Oi!

Oh yes! Regarding the ring buying trip next week, Mom just told me she is bringing along 1st Auntie and 3rd Auntie. For their expert opinion, she said.
September 4, 2009, 2:51 pm |
What? You never said your aunties were coming too.
September 4, 2009, 2:52 pm |
I think you should make the wedding in Singapore Pasir Ris
HeHe

Hah? So She’s not pregnant uh? well never mind then.
September 4, 2009, 7:21 pm |
Pasir Ris beach? That could be nice under a canopy..
September 5, 2009, 10:41 pm |
Oh man! Stomach flu only…it would have been more interesting if she was pregnant. Storyline would have been much more interesting..oh well.

A so-called ‘Bid Day’ wedding does not mean that it has to be extravagant and lurid. At the end of the day, decades down the road, it is not the number of guests you will remember, nor the financial digits but the look in your partner’s eyes, your first dance and the words in each other’s vows, among other little things.

It’s a gd ting tat she’s nt pregnant. Tat’s all I can said.

I like what Aisha Mustafa said. Kudos to you! At any rate, even if Hui Leng is not pregnant, I’m pretty sure they are still gonna come up with an interesting ending to this. What’s good about all of this though is that everyone thought of Leng as pregnant and have predicted the ending already, and now she’s not! So who knows what now right?
I’m hooked! =)
