And also I want to document my happiness in my blog.

Now, I shamelessly present few of our final selection of the pre-wedding photos.

Here are the 6 of 50 we selected from over 400 shots. All fully outdoor shooting. Glad that I don’t look really fat in the pictures. Ho Ho Ho.But, my smile is not perfect (showing too much gum). Hongkiat looks great in the photos.

Which one do you like the most? I love the beach side picture where we both sit down one and facing each other.

We got the soft copy from Julia last 2 weeks. Now we are in the middle of doing the layout ourselves. Hopefully we can get it done (the layout of the album) by mid July and send back to Julia and get the album printed. Printing the album will need 1.5 months waiting time because printing will be done in Taiwan.

Let’s hope I will get the album latest in mid september.

This time round, we jio-ed Aaron to watch Terminator: Salvation at Gold Class Cinema @ GSC Signature Gardens.

RM45 for the ticket + RM15 dunno what surchage = RM60 (Still cheaper than I went to Gold Class in SG)

Inclusive of a drink and blanket. Oh, also a small pillow.

The lady was asking what free drink do we want, choices of soft drinks or mineral water.

Aaron with his famous half-dead look.

Very spacious waiting lounge. A lot more bigger than the one at Vivo, at least 3x! This picture only showing 1 side. There was another side of waiting lounge. Even more spacious.

This was the cinema hall.

Aaron said he was very very tired as he had paint ball session this morning and body-ache, he might fall asleep during the show.

I would say it was quite the same feeling as the gold class at GV Vivo (Singapore). Same as last time, it’s too comfy till we can all easily fall asleep! But the movie was good enough to keep me awake. :)

Next, Transformer! Can’t wait. Anyone wants to join? Most probably watch in Vivo Gold Class! MUAHAHAHA!

But instead, we saw this hazy KL last week. (Taken on 13th Jun 2009)

Who else to blame? Sumatra la! :) Nothing new.

I am officially 28 now!

My colleagues who all younger than me insist wanna celebrate my birthday as well as Andy’s birthday which fall 3 days after me.

We went to an Indonesian Restaurant @ Lucky Plaza Orchard road for dinner. The food was quite nice, spicy enough.

The famous Ayam Penyet! Very nice :)

You know girls are always sweet, they were so thoughtful and bought us a cake from Bakerzin. It was really a lovely night. :) Oh yea, not forgetting the birthday song singing very loud at the restaurant.

The cake was also very delicious, it was one of the famous choice in Bakerzin - Chocolate Amor.

Thank you all the lovely ladies and 2 gentlement for the simple birthday celebration. It means a lot. Everyone willing to spend time with me. :)

Then Karen, Chew Hong, SueMei and Amber bought me cute little gift. Thank you very much, very cute of you all and off coz the pooh bear is cuter. :p

I bring home this hug-able fat pooh, an additional soft toy to my pooh bear collection.

I decided to keep this cute little fat pooh at office. :)

Then the next birthday celebration with my beloved hubby-to-be and Stacey at a Japanese Restaurant @ Paragon Orchard Road

It was not a very expensive kind of dinner as I thought it would be.

This was something new to me, soup in teapot. According to HK, he tried this during his trip to London, and turn out it taste very good. :)

I guess both of us did not have enough japanese food during my birthday, we went Kampachi @ Pavilion when we went back KL during weekend.

Yummy Tempura

Super duper great Softshell Crab Sushi - The best I ever had. Cant get anything better than this.

Unagi Sushi

We met up with my best pal Syen and Jessie for dinner at Ole Ole Bali @ SOHO KL, Solaris Mt Kiara. It was my first time dining there.

Well, I love the environment. Dim light (my fav as usual), nice background music, not crowded and good companion. :)

The food there, hmm, i wont say it’s totally disappointing but it was not good as we expected.

They also bought me a birthday gift. They have ran out of idea what to buy for me, you know… we have been friends for over 15 years.

And they got me this.

They expect me to wear this during my wedding night. Naughty naughty ah!

Thank you Syen and Jessie for sparing time to celebrate my birthday. It’s really not easy after so many years we have been friends and we are still holding strong. I am really happy. :)

Okay, till now only I will reveal the most expensive birthday gift I ever received. Hohoho! It was from my hubby-to-be!

This was one of the latest model of Gucci. I am loving it. It’s not because of it is gucci, also not because of it is latest model, but it is Hongkiat knows what kind of bag I wanted to buy - a shoulder bag which I can bring to work.

Thank you dear! You melt my heart.

P/s: I cant believe i left this present out! I already uploaded the pictures but I forgotten to post it up.

My siblings also bought me a present! Very sweet of them. Love them much!

People in the restaurant restricted me from taking pictures in Xin Wang. What is that! Cheh.

After that, we went for ice cream. Ho HO Ho. Sinful~ It’s call Marvelous Cream.  Interesting way to mix the nuts/brownies etc into ice cream. They mixed the ice cream on a -16 degree marble top.

Yummy. :p

Then walk around at Orchard, shopping at Kinokuniya, dinner at Thai Express @ Yishun and watched Night at the museum 2.

I thought the movie was kinda disappointing. Not really funny. Probably I don’t enjoy that kind of funny. :)

Oh my sunday was kinda interesting, we bought this board game and play at home. RISK!

I’ve played this game long time ago. Exciting game for me. Haha.

How to play? Generally, it’s a strategic game la. All you need to do is just conquer the world. :)

HK was new to this game. But I hope he had fun playing it. :p

Guess who won? It’s MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. Ha ha ha. I conquer north america, Asia, Europe, Africa, South America and Australia! Both of the lim brothers lose! Haha.

Red is me, blue is HK’s bro and Black is HK. Look at their terrotories. :p

Shiok.

Too bad stacey did not join. Well, surely got chance. I shall invite friends to come play with us soon~

He is Malaysia’s Top blogger, according to this list. I don’t have to go long wind with his success story, Exabytes just published his story in their blog.

Dear, I am so proud of you. You totally deserved the title! Muaks.

*can i have more bags?*

Well, since Hongkiat already has laptop bag himself, he decided to give my macbook air a chance to own a new bag :p Then I fast fast go to the website and choose a bag for my macbook air.

There it goes. The package reached my mailbox today.

Such lovely pink pokka dot! Okay, in the website, they call it Pink Stripey Dot.

They have different size to fit your laptop. My macbook air is the extra small size. :p

Likey likey! Cute pokka dots. Pink is so outstanding in black background. :p

So, my macbook also got new bag liao. Haha!

Well, I actually got another new bag, which I am going to post it soon! Kekeke!

This is a show off post. For those who cannot stand me showing off, please X immediately. :) Don’t say I never warn hor.

One year ago, Hongkiat bought me a really nice coach bag for my birthday, which is still very much my favourite. He always wanted to buy me the nicest thing.

There he goes again. During our trip to Taiwan, he suggest that I should get another bag for myself. But this time, he say wanna get something different from Coach. I should have had enough of Coach bag.

We bought the bag at Taoyuan Airport.

We went into Gucci, saw a bag which is quite cute. But it didn’t really make us wanna buy it. So we went to Prada. The shop was bigger, brighter and more grand. The sales person also handsome and pretty.

Finally, ‘Ka Cheng’. We paid for one lovely bag which was apparently the most expensive bag I have.

I suppose I don’t need much description. If you wanna check out this bag online, i give you this name, Prada Bauletto, art: BL 0575.

This model has few more colors, like black, purple, pink etc. But Pink is cute but too bimbo (and I already have one really nice pink tote), black is ordinary prada, so I just take this. :)

But but but, this is not my birthday pressie wo. KAKAKA.

Who knows what he bring back from London? I wonder. (But no pressure, dear.)

Initially, we have 9 people going, but one of us had some urgent matter came up. She gotto leave us when on the way going to Jetty. Poor girl.

Our itinerary is simple.

Singapore -> Mersing (Take Ferry ride to Tioman) -> Tioman Paya Resort -> Mersing -> Singapore

We booked a van to purposely come and pick us up from Singapore to Mersing. It’s rather expensive than taking bus, but more flexible and convenient. I am glad that we make the right choice of getting a van instead of bus (which pretty much save us all from trouble later).

The journey from Singapore to Mersing (Johor) took about 3 hours. We arrived at Mersing Jetty around 9.30am which is still early for the ferry departing time (10.30am). But the workers there keep rush us to get on ferry asap.

The ugly me.

Left to right - Novi, Mini, Suet Yi and Siew Ling.

Left to right - Sue Mei, Amber, Karen and Me.

Camwhoring in ferry. 2 hours journey from mersing to tioman Paya (our chalet)

We are going to Tioman Paya Resort. :)

Simply love the scenery! Nice sky view, nice sea view!

Leng luis in action.

Absolutely stunning!

So we finally reach the Tioman Paya Beach after 2 hours of Ferry ride. Luckily no one vomit.

The beach side near our chalet.

On the way to chalet.

A very simple reception. We check-in there. All payment was done 1 week before we came. The package we bought was about RM350, included 2-way ferry, 5 meals and 2 nights accommodation. Sea activities were included but we gotto rent the tools.

We booked 2 chalet rooms. Both rooms were next to each other and attached with a pathetically small air-con each room. Although we on the air-con at noon, but we still feel like sauna!

The package we bought did not include lunch on our arrival, therefore we just order some fried noodles and fried rice for lunch.

The lunch was not bad.

On our first day of arrival, there wasn’t any activities arranged. The sea outings was planned the next day. So we have a lot of free time exploring what’s nearby.

So after the lunch, the boss of resort suggest us to take a walk to this Rock Fall. Well, it’s not a place whereby rocks are falling, but it’s a waterfall. Just that a lot of rocks at the waterfall.

See, rocks.

That’s the rock fall we found.

The water there was clear. But we dare not stay too long there. The waterfall was located quite deep inside the forest. No one was there except us. Quite creepy la. Sorry, I chicken out.

Then we get out of the Rock fall and proceed to the nearest beach side.

The biggest sunny day ever. Freaking hot but also windy. Hehe.

Another group photo. All look young, right? Except me. :)  They were all below 26. Hell!

I cant even recognize which one was my foot.   O.o

I kinda like this picture. But I dislike my smile.

Oh, this has to be one of my favourite pictures! She posed naturally and I also love the water. Nice pose, Amber.

The sand were so smooth over here. The water was so crystal clear. Guess what, we spent 2 hours playing there. I had a lot of fun and showing my big tummy to them shamelessly with my bikini top. Off coz, not going to show here.

Another favourite pictures!

Before the sun set, I decided we all should pose this way! Haha. Interesting. Again, I don’t know who is who.

After playing so long at the beach side, we all went back for shower and prepare for dinner. Some of them decided to take a short nap, you have no idea how tired all of us were. We woke up around 5am in the morning, took 3 hours on the road, 2 hours ferry then continue playing till sun set. It was damn tiring especially after the sun tan at beach side.

Anyway, the dinner was very satisfying. We love all the dishes especially curry chicken.

The soup was great. “Salty vege toufu soup”!

Hungry ghost all of us. Hehehe.

Some night activities like playing pool. Look at Amber’s pose… hmm, kinda weird.

We also play Uno inside the room till midnight. That conclude our first day at Tioman! Tiring and fun. We all get sun tan a bit but not as worse as second day where we went sea outings!

Oh, the pathetically small air-con almost freeze us to death, unbelievable. Probably due to the raining in the middle also.

On our second day, we were preparing to go for sea activities. Snorkeling to see corals and Marine park to see fishes.

We are lucky enough because the rain stop at 8am. After we finished our breakfast, everyone gathered together and wait for the tour guide’s call.

I made them all wear this and pose for me. Keke.

We went back to jetty to get on boat where we will all be sent to Marine Park.

Cute Suat Yi and Novi.

Well, the whole boat carry at least 30 people I guess.

We manage to get the front seats, at least it’s not against the direction. Because some of them got sea sick.

Before we went to marine park, we were brought to the duty free shop. Freaking commercialize package! Sien. The tour guide made us stay there for 1 hour.

Then we were brought back to the boat again and send us to Marine park which was very near to this Duty free shop.

There you go. Everyone can see the protected fish species there. We bought some bread and feed the fishes. Very interesting experience. I actually never did this before. I went to Redang and Tioman when I was still kid. I can’t remember if I did this before.

Our packed Lunch. No appetite to eat, coz it was all cold. :p

After 2 hours at the marine park, we were brought some spot nearby to see corals.

The me with full gear!

Guess what, the current there were soooooo fast andd rush… Once we were at the sea, we were busy looking at corals, we were pushed towards the beach side without realising a bit. When we realise we were so far away from the boat, we tried to swim back. But no matter how hard we wanna swim back to the boat, we were not able to get nearer, not even an inch. It was kinda scary, thought we will not able to go back and the boat will leave us. Haha.

I guess the safe guard know about this, he drive a small boat just to get us, the bunch of lost soul. Hehehe. Then we were safe!

This picture was taken with max digital zoom! haha. Thanks to Sue Mei.

A pretty girl in bikini. No fats at all, with her ang mo bf.

After the sea outing, we were back to the resort. We all got sun burn! Okay, not to the extend like get burn la. But everyone was at least 2 skin tone darker! Damn. Okay, that was quite expected result, I know. No futher complains.

But everyone say I am darker already. :((((( I am a bride to be in Oct leh! Should not have go for this trip. ahahha. I’ll work harder to get fairer from now on.

Anyway, back to the trip. It’s dinner time after a rest from sea outings. Second day’s dinner was kinda disappointing. Dishes were different from day 1, but not as delicious as day 1.

Calamari, fried sotong la!

Boring dish

I think the fish was not fresh. I ate 1 piece and I discontinue. :p

Another boring dish.

AHhhhh, my favourite soup.

We cant even finish half of the dishes. Only manage to finish the soup and fried egg.

After the dinner, we decided to have some beer and karaoke section. The karaoke was FOC. Part of the facilities provided by the resort.

We occupied the whole restaurant. We sing till they close shop. That was about 10pm only. We gotto carry on with the Uno card games in our room. Again, we stay up till midnight.

A 3days 2 nights trip was pretty enjoyable, if you hang out with the correct crowd. I am glad that the trip was over with full fun.

We check out the room after breakfast. We were told that ferry will come at 10am.

The outlook of our chalet.

The surrounding area.

My breakfast. :p

Probably I wont be back in near future. I think Redang is a lot more beautiful than Tioman. We chose to come Tioman because it’s the nearest beautiful island (to Singapore) and cheaper package.

The happy me, before the unfortunate incident.

An attempt to jump.

Ferry came late. 30 minutes late.

After this, I don’t have anymore pictures. Because ferry came and my camera decided to jump sea. I am lucky enough to be able to save my memory card. Else, i wont have all these pictures.

Belle told me frankly that she laughed at me when I blog about my unfortunate incident about the camera. I am sad. I truly am.

Now i feel stupid to talk about the incident. Please go help yourself by reading the post again and laugh all you can. I don’t care anymore. :)

This post has total of 90 pictures. 95% of the pictures were from my beloved camera. The remaining 5% of pictures, I get from friend’s camera.
