Preparation for Wedding - Part 1

19 March 2010 (Friday)
7.30am :  Woke up, shower, breakfast
9.00am : Set off to Whitelink @ Kaki Bukit
9.30am : Reach Whitelink

We proceed to the second floor of the building for our studio shoot first. We were feeling excited especially me because I can't imagine myself in all the outfits that we've chosen. Before our photo shoots, Sammi make up for me for about an hour. After me, Laogong was next to make up. Haha, I kept laughing because it's Laogong first time applying make up. He looked different and me too.

After making up and changing, we moved to the studio and met our photographer. Our first impression of him is cool as he had his long hair bundled up that make him looked stylish. Soon after he started talking to us, he's a real joker man. He kept cracking jokes and I kept laughing non-stop.

Altogether I changed 4 outfits. For each outfit, I changed my hairstyle.
1st :  Victorian
2nd : Cowboy
3rd : Wedding gown
4th : Evening gown (Red, my favourite colour)
I really love all my different hairstyles with all the different beaded head bands matched by Sammi.

In between our photo shoots, we did had our sandwich lunch prepared by Laogong. Green beans soup and fruits bought by Sammi.

We did our final touch up before setting off for our outdoor shoots. Throughout the journey to RP, Vincent continued to joke around and conduct a mini lesson about photography and BMW. It was raining and we were quite worried about the weather. We counted ourselves lucky because when we reached RP, the sun was shinning brightly at us. We were like aliens in the school because of the way we dressed. Forgetting about our looks, we continued to take our photos and ignored how people looked at us. The weather lasted till we finished our photo shoots at RP.

Our next destination is Changi Broadway. On the way there, it was raining again. When we reached Changi, the rain rain go away. The weather was breezy. We had our photo shoots at the beach playing with the sand and sea water. And with that, we ended our outdoor photo shoots and headed back to Whitelink.

Lastly I would like to thank
Jimmy the Coordinator - For choosing the right outfits for us
Sammi the Make up artist - For dolling me up to be the prettiest bride
Vincent the Photographer - For sharing his knowledge and enjoying the whole process with his jokes
Pandiyan & Benjamin the RP officers - For making it happen to have our photo shoots at Republic Polytechnic
WeiMing my Laogong - For preparing breakfast and lunch for me and being my partner for the rest of my life

Dear fans of HuiMin, I will be viewing the photos on 03 April 2010 so continue to stay tune for them.

Dream

You chosen me again when everyone is waiting for you to enter into their dream. Everytime you appeared, you came alive. I still can't face the reality that you are dead.
This time round, you asked all the young kids to give you something that looks like nian gao and you gave them $10 each. And you wanted us to distribute the bee hoon on the desk for everyone to eat. Next scene was at a shopping mall. You opened a door and disappeared right in my eyes just like flashlight. The next moment I couldn't find the door and locate you. Where have you been? The last scene was at a place like the crematorium, all married couple were in their wedding gown and suit. Nicely dressed with the rings on the desk awaiting to exchange vows in front of you. I really can't catch the meaning of the whole dream. What are you trying to tell me?  
Anyway, thanks Grandma for leaving so much memory to me. You are always remembered. I'm missing you badly.
