Caught The Wedding Diary with Chris on Vday~


[Source]

The Wedding Diary tells the story of a couple, Daniel and Tina (played by Aniu & Elanne Kwong respectively) who decides to get hitched. Daniel is an engineer working in Singapore, who comes from a humble Hokkien Malaysian family, while his wife-to-be Tina, comes from a well-to-do Cantonese Singaporean family. What follows the happy decision to tie the knot is a series of problems involving both families – the disparity in perceived wealth and the countless differences between Singaporean and Malaysian, Hokkien and Cantonese cultures, such that preparations for the wedding almost come to a standstill. In a show of sincerity and commitment to his demanding parents-in-law to be, Daniel agrees to hold an extravagant and lavish wedding banquet in Singapore.

On the wedding day, Daniel discovers that most of the red packets he has planned to use to foot the bill have gone missing! Out of desperation, he heads to the nearby casino to try his luck and ends up losing more money. As he makes up one lie after another to cover up his problems, Tina starts to have suspicions about his fidelity and honesty. He quarrels with his father over the wedding arrangements and in a pique, his father leaves Singapore only to meet with a car accident on the way back to Penang. The happiest day in Daniels life is suddenly unfolding into what could be the most depressing or is it?

The movie was quite depressing. T_T Made me realise how many things can go wrong during a wedding. Although the movie is quite exaggerated, but still….

I also thought the movie was quite lame…and I don’t know if it is just me, but A-niu’s teeth were soooo distracting!! I never realised his teeth was *that* bad. Or maybe I’ve just become a teeth snob after putting on braces. T_T Because I find crooked teeth really distracting.

After the movie, we went for dinner at Xin Wang. Mr Toh joined us after he got off work.

On Sunday 19/02, I went with Mommy and my cousin and aunt+uncle to our respective new houses to measure the windows and calculate the price again. The price my uncle gave was cheap! But Mr Toh said we should hold off on renovating first as we still have to plan the wedding. Need to set a date! Headache ah.

The next Friday, Mr Toh was off so we went to catch a movie!

The world’s deadliest CIA operatives are inseparable partners and best friends until they fall for the same woman. Having once helped bring down entire enemy nations, they are now employing their incomparable skills and an endless array of high-tech gadgetry against their greatest nemesis ever – each other.

I enjoyed this movie a lot! There were some scenes that left me laughing so hard that my mouth ached and I couldn’t catch my breath! Damn hilarious! The storyline and characters were well written too. I loved Reese Witherspoon in this role, she was sooo cute! Of course the 2 leading men were very droolsome too, but I much preferred the manly Tom Hardy (who plays Puck) over the boyish Chris Pine (who played FDR). *So* charming and that voice~~*swoons*

I didn’t expect it to be very good and it surpassed my expectations! So I guess the key to an enjoyable movie is to have low expectations. Haha! Very good movie for a relaxing evening. =)

Tonight, I am meeting Mr Toh for another movie! An inspirational tale this time~

What are you doing at his age?

Age 16, TOP gained 400,000 Baht monthly from playing online games.
Age 17, He was willing to fail school and instead earned money from selling chestnuts for 2,000 baht.
Age 18, His family went bankrupt and remained 40 million Baht in debt.
Age 19, He released Tao Kae Noi seaweed to more than 3,000 branches at 7-Eleven.

At this present, Top is a 26-year-old businessman, the owner of the bestselling seaweed in Thailand. He owns 85 percent of the market share which is equivalent to 800 million Baht a year, and has 2,000 employees in his company.

THE BILLIONAIRE will let you get to know Top Ittipat in details about how he turned himself from an online game addict whom always got disparaged by teachers, to a famous young billionaire. How did he raise himself up to this position? Surely, everyone desires to get rich, yet not everyone dares to succeed like him.

Find the answers that have made Top become a Billionaire, while you still can.

Hope it is nice, it did get some nice reviews.

So, Sunday we went to pray in the morning and went home to change again because the weather was horribly sunny!

We headed to Orchard to find my present~~ Weee!! I asked Mr Toh what his budget is and he thought about it for a while and said about $300.

I initially wanted to get Kate Spade, but I got tempted by Burberry! So we walked over to Paragon to take a look and I fell in love with one of their wallets. I asked for the price and it was a whopping $600+! I *gasped* in my heart and turned over to give Mr Toh a sorrowful look.

I was about to give up on it when Mr Toh asked me “你真的喜欢吗?”. I thought about it for a while and said yes~ Then Mr Toh said “OK, then we’ll get it. But make sure you really like it.” I was ecstatic!!! Thank you!! *muacks*

After making payment, we decided to catch a movie so we walked over to Cineleisure. But they didn’t have any movie that Mr Toh wanted to watch, so we checked Shaw’s selection and they have the movie Special Forces that Mr Toh wanted to watch.

Special Forces is Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3’s Official partner in France and international territories.

Afghanistan. Elsa Casanova, an outstanding journalist, is taken hostage by the Taliban. Faced with her imminent execution, a Special Forces unit is sent to free her. In hostile yet magnificent landscapes, an unforgiving pursuit occurs between the captors who have no intentions of letting their prey escape and this group of soldiers who, even with their lives at stake, has only one objective: take her back alive. The strong-willed woman and these men of honour are compelled to face the worst of dangers together. [Source]

The movie was OK, the storyline was quite predictable but some scenes left me feeling so sad that I was sobbing and my tears were just flowing. T_T I suspect I was hormonal. Hahaha!!

After that, we went for dinner~ Mr Toh felt like eating KFC so off to Far East Plaza we went~ Mr Toh ate a 3 piece chicken, a small coleslaw, cheese fries, a small whipped potato and a cup of Pepsi. O.O Should have seen his stomach after this. Hahahaha.

We then took a bus home~ While on the bus, Mr Toh put in some $$ in my new wallet. Hee. =D

Mr Toh putting in $$ in the wallet. Hee.

Guess how much he put? $10 only lah~

Super love the ribbon~!

Ta-daaah~~ ❤ ❤ ❤

Before we went out, I passed Mr Toh his card. =)

Vday card V.2012 for Mr Toh. =D

Been a while since I’ve did a card for him. Haha. Hope he liked it.

I’m gonna celebrate Friendship Day today with Christ because Mr Toh’s working today. =P

Happy Valentines’ Day & Happy Friendship Day everyone!

Tags: ,

We’re gonna be celebrating it earlier tomorrow as we’re both working on that day. I gave Mr Toh his present yesterday. He already knew what I will get him. So smart. Hahaha~

Ta-daah! He has been looking for this book for ages. When I called and checked with Times, they informed me that it was sold out and they won’t be replenishing the stocks. He also checked with the publisher for me and found out that it is out of print already. T_T Luckily I managed to find it on Amazon JP as Amazon US didn’t have an express delivery option. Love the super fast delivery Amazon JP had! Gonna read it after Mr Toh finish reading it. =)

I asked Mr Toh yesterday if I still needed to wrap his present since he knew what it is and he said, “Nvm lor, no need wrap, just give it to me.” Hahahah~ But I think I will still do another present for him. =)

Then I asked Mr Toh what he will be getting me and he said he don’t know! He forgot that a few weeks back, he mentioned he will buy a new wallet for me. This was because I dislike bringing my current wallet out as it is very bulky and I will just use a card holder. He asked me if I don’t find it troublesome that I have to keep changing places for my cards. I said I dislike my current wallet and Mr Toh said, “Oh…so you waiting for me to buy you a new one is it?”. I said Yes and he said OK! Hahahah~ He asked me to choose it myself. He didn’t want to risk getting me something I don’t like.

We’re going to pray to Mummy-in-law on Sunday morning then we’re going to settle a few items for our new home on Sunday. After that, we’ll go dating and shopping for a new wallet. 😛 Wee~~

Happy Valentines’ Day everyone!
