The past month has been a nightmare. I am never going to be last minute on important events of my life ever again. We had all the time in the world since last year and both J and I really woke up and realise how much work we have not completed. Such pressure and stress initially backfired and both of us thought of just running away on a rendezvous wedding in Las Vegas and come back without forking out more then 65k in the 2 wedding dinners which will be held in Pan Pacific(sg) and Shangri-la(kk). I'm back in singapore now and will attend to the never ending emails which have accumulated over the month that I have been away.
The past few months have been very trying period for our relationship, there were lots of sacrifices that both of us had to make to please the elders in the family. We were initially rather reluctant on these sacrifices but we came to realise that we had to make them out of "respect". I am of course the one always complaining. There's no such thing as respect for the elderly in my dictionary, respect had to be earned in my family. In my family, we are very opinionated and we voice our displeasure when we disagree with something. The problem is, it works differently in his family, any unhappiness had to be tolerated and giving in was only a natural process and it is not only expected, but also demanded.
Both of us came to know and understand, that our marriage is not going to work out because we are going to have a fabulous wedding, it is not about going to the wedding studio and taking corny pictures , it's really about compromising and being happy and willing to compromise that will make the marriage work. I may be young , alot of people have doubted me, but im sure they can see how much more mature I am compared to my peers because of the things I have been through in life(which I really rarely mention or talk about). I don't have anything to prove, I have achieved goals I have set for myself before turning 21, far exceeding the requirements for peers my age.
What I'm lacking now is time.
Everything is a hurry, from the flower arrangements to the helicopter landing approval, and I have come to realise there is no such thing as the perfect dress, wedding cakes are fake and only one layer is real, taking pictures for the wedding album is such a chore,my skin is going to break out because of stress, i better do something about lylarose. bye | |

**bad english ahead.
Some customers are just really demanding. they threaten, they hurl abuse at you, but most of the time we take it politely and make sure we reply in the most professional way we can. Until recently, we've got another case of such incident. As stated , I was in and out of hospital and she sent 3 emails to me consecutively which ended up in spam box becaus gmail automatically groups unreplied emails into spam. Which is why we always tell customers to avoid sending us multiple emails as we'll never get to it in the end.
Such customers make my fainting spells worse and I burst out crying and my mother was so shocked and told me to relax because I cannot be aggravated at this point because I might just faint again. Customer totally manipulated the forum against us when the transaction amount was barely $25 bucks. While I understand her situation as buyer when she hasn't got her reply, exaggerating situations and manipulating us was certainly uncalled for. We replied and told her that her defected tee would be exchanged once we received the return mail from her. However, guess what? She demanded for a refund instead.
I cannot think of many logical reason why she would wnat a refund instead of an exchange except for the fact that she soiled the tee on purpose, or that she cannot fit into her tee, or maybe she's sick of having the tee and wants a refund. all towards her own benefit. We hve an extra piece form the backorder and offered to exchange it for her defected tee on the exact same day we receive it.
You will NEVER imagine how ugly some people can get. Janelle and I had customers thrown plastics at us, cut their items and claim that it is defected and demand for refund instead of exchange, purposely stain an item and claim that she cannot fit and wants a refund instead of an exchange.
It's because of such incidents we do exchanges instead of refunds. We only do refunds when item is out of stock but even then, we expect an email from them within 3 days of receiving it.
In particular, the customer which recently manipulated us only emailed us the picture after more then 1 week of receiving it. What does that show. tell me? and suggest to me, what would you do if you were in my shoes?!!?!?!?! | |

2009 not looking good in the health department at all. Doctor says, must take lots of fluid and good rest which I have been neglecting. Thank god for Janelle and my auntie eunice who has been of great help with regards to Lylarose. I would like to apologise for the delays in replying of emails these few days as I have been going in and out of clinics and having fainting spells.
For those taking their exams in uni like PL, Nat and some lylarose customers, pls take good care and hydrate yourself regularly. The weather is a killer and Janelle thought she had a heat stroke that day after going to the PO.
Oh and I just received my jacket from Janis, it's really pretty and my mum borrowed it without telling me yesterday. I haven't even worn it. ..
Nothng much happened except that I'm extremely busy arranging for flights accomodation and everything else in June. At the same time juggling lylarose and I haven't met YR and viv for such a long time eversince I came back to sg. Amber was suggesting poker night together again but I think I'll be in the hospital this weekend.
On the side note, to you, biggest hypocrite of the year. "what would jesus do?"
continue your nonsense and try testing our limits, it wouldn't be long before truth finally reveals itself. what would happen then?

There's alot running through my head now. Alot of the world and actions of the society saddens me.
Where are all the kind people, because all that I've been seeing these few weeks are hypocritsy, lies and cunning actions.
Random events that upset me, although most of the happenings did not happen to me directly( all different people).
1. you are seriously such a hypocrite, pot calling the kettle black? I'm seriously disappointed in you.
2. did you purposely plan this and commented on the page just so I can see what's happening? What are you trying to prove?
3. why are you still in singapore? get lost already.
4. why must you insist on august? you should join the opposition party, cus that's what you do best, oppose to everybody's decision.
5. Stop lying and covering up for her. Everybody can see what's happening.
6. Did you really enjoy yourself ? Because your actions show immaturity.
good things that happened.
1. Went to the diamond fair in shangri-la and saw this shiny 1.99 carat blue diamond that was at almost 50% off.
2. Realised that everything in ringit = divided by 2.38. everything looks so cheap suddenly.
3. my hp line got cut off for no reason so i'm basically uncontactable. hurray. no annoying smses in the middle of the night that goes:" hello, do you still have xx item? can i meetup with u? any discounts? my registered parcel got returned to the PO, can u collect it for me and remail it out.have u verified my payment.have you eaten, do you want supper."
4. had 10 hours of sleep each night the whole of this week because air con is working and I can sleep in complete darkness.
5. Watched maxim(my lil aussie cousin) dance doncha wish ur girlfriend was hawt like me. completely with aussie accent and booty shaking. Oh, she break-danced too. When asked what she wnated to be when she grows up, performer. When asked if she thinks I'm fat, she said "a lil chubby". Kids are probably the only honest people left.
