So What If You Are Getting Married!?

Getting Married is something to celebrate!
The union of two.
Something very blissful and romantic.
But it does not mean that you are king of the world and do not put the 'happiness' of others at heart.

I was still doing my usual emailing at 4.50am before I jumped up a little from my chair because of sudden loud honking!
The environment was so quiet, you can hear a pin dropped when my hands are not 'rattling' on the keyboard.

I looked at the time and wondered why would there be a traffic jam at this hour??!!
Went to the window and realised that the honking came from 3 cars.

The wedding car led the way into the driveway below my block of flat, followed by two 'best men cars'.
The 3 were going "Honk Honk Honk and Hooooooooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnkkkkkkkkkk"

I believe they were here so early to fetch the bride because of the Hokkien or Teochew tradition of fetching bride before sunrise.
But hey!!!
Do you need to HONK AT THIS HOUR to announce your arrival???!!!
It is sleeping time for 99% of the people! mind you!!!

So what if you are getting married?!
Does that give you the right to be inconsiderate??!
I heard babies cries right after the honking started.... probably woken up but the abrupt break of silence.

I wanted to shout at them when they get out of the car, but I paused and thought - "If I did that, I am no better than them...."

*shake head*

My Very Own 21 Stress Free Tips

Tip 20 of 21

Something good need not stay good in large quantity.
Balance and smart choices are the key points here.

Today's tip is simple, not all previous tips will work for the same person nor the same event.
Different tip works well for different situation.

By mindlessly using all tips for the one same issue will only cause more headaches.
It is the same for anything in life.
Try one solution at a time, NOT all suggested solutions at one time.
The last thing you want is to get yourself more confused by trying everything. *giggle*

Its NOT always 'The More The Merrier'.
Be Smart.
Be Wise.
Try one at a time and find out which one suits you best at what kind of circumstances.

Ring Alteration

Yes!!!
My wedding ring is finally back on my ring finger again!!!

After the drama on that fateful day, I simply refused to wear it again, in case I lose it again. I told Allan, I wanted a ring alteration. But I wanted it to be a gift from him on our 10th Anniversary.

He procrastinated till last Sunday. Oh well, though it was a belated Anniversary gift, I still loved it!

This is the third time I went for ring alteration. The first ring alteration was done at the point of purchase. It was way too big! I still remember Allan was saying jokingly, "With so much white gold removed, this small ring becomes really expensive." *laugh*

Since it was done by the shop itself, the ring alteration was free of charge.

The second ring alteration was during my pregnancy. I was ballooned during my first pregnancy. Water retention and all of that stuff. So this time, my ring alteration was enlargement and it only cost $10.

This time, the third ring alteration was made smaller than when I first bought it!!!
How could it be?!
Which means my finger shrunk!!!
It is now smaller than what it was 11 years ago, when I first bought it.
How could it be??!!!


*scratch head*

Anyway, my ring finger is once again 'dressed up sparklingly'.
Its good to be pronounced 'Married' publicly again.
*wink*

For those of you who are completely lost, here's the full story:
I accepted the fact and start wearing my proposal ring.
then I found my wedding ring but refused to wear.

I hope I would not need a fourth ring alteration. *eyes rolled*
Thank you Dearie! *hugs*
