..:: happy father's day!! ::..
celebrated father's day a day earlier cos lil ol' me has to work on the actual day. nyeh.
had dinner at Mino-Q japanese restaurant at king's copthorne hotel at havelock. affordable buffet! $38++ for an all you can eat japanese dinner! food was alright. we had a whole lot of food. what i liked the most was the snow peas... i LOVE snow peas.... and also the fried tofu which they served in a sweet chilli sauce. delish! the rest of the food wasn't anything fantastic. on the whole, i give the restaurant three and a half thumbs up! the japanese restaurant at purvis street was much better.
so papa liked his prezzie. and datuk got a battery operated shaver from mama. when she told me what she got him..i was like "why? he doesn't really need to shave...." lol. but datuk liked it...
the whole dinner, the eating process, was great. we had a good time talking and eating. then i kinda opened the topic of when i get married can i stay with the parentals for while waiting to get a house...mom immediately said NO. papa said ok. haha. so then we started talking about buying a house and renovations and where to buy a house... so stressful...
i think we need to register for a house end of this year...prolly get one that'll be ready in a year or so... then by the time our wedding comes, we just have a few months to wait for the house to be ready for us to move in.. just hope that he has enough in his cpf to buy a house. heh.
if things go as planned, his parentals will be here in august to do the official proposal.. i dun see the need for this..i mean, we're the ones getting married..and he already proposed to me...so why do the parentals have to propose to my parentals? sheesh. traditions. i can never understand them! but i guess we hafta listen to what the elders say and respect their decision. suddenly they are the ones to decide how much dowry should be given and how the whole wedding will be done! the things we kids have to endure! hahaha.
i just hope that papa will be nice and not start giving his ever so popular 'they're too young and should wait' speech. if that happens....i dunno what i'll do. i seriously dun get him at times.
initially he was against us getting married so early...then the next thing i know he's shoving brochures of caterers in my face and deciding what kind of food should be served...then he goes back to that 'you should wait a little longer' mode. *confused*
and my mom isn't making things any clearer for me either! she is all up for the wedding cos practically ever other cousin is getting married or engaged or giving birth soon! so i have to be the
next girl to get married. then, when the 'fever' cools off...she tells me to wait a lil longer... HELLO!!!
SO DO YOU WANT US TO GET MARRIED SOON OR NOT???? i bet if khai was a rich man's son they'd marry me off in a jiffy. heh.
i've already done all the research. i've already set a date for when we should attend the pre-marriage course. i've already decided on what kinda wedding to have and who my brides-maid are. i've already set THE actual date!! can i at least have a confirmation from someone?! sheesh. it's as if i'm asking them to sign a million dollar cheque! can someone explain to me WHY parents are so confusing??
*sigh*
the funniest thing today...nani suggested we
nikah gantung. cute. so cute. if only. but if it were that easy....everyone would be doing that! i'm so happy hdb has the fiance/fiancee scheme!! so much more easier to get a house. no need to gantung anyone. hahaha.
and so the journey begins..but only after we get back from thailand. heh.
