Welcome Mum and Dad!

Welcome to the potatoland Mum and Dad! I wanted to pick you guys up from the airport but due to work commitment, I can't. I hope Ju is taking great care of you guys while I'm away. Take care and have fun! 

P.S. Thanks to Nisha, Rajesh, Jen Ann, Geraldine, Jen Ann's sis and Titus (Rajesh's puppy) for picking up my in laws! Greatly appreciated. 

Getting ready

Last Saturday with Ju before I'm away for   2 weeks. Even though we woke up late on a Saturday afternoon, we still went to Boise to have dinner at Tucanos. 

Argh... Hate being away from Ju again but luckily it's just two weeks this time. Besides, Mum and Dad are visiting during that period that will keep Ju companied. 

Time to pack my luggage..

Arsh Piratana

I was reading through our previous post and realized I totally forgot to update on our ROM pics. How did I miss that!?? Well, I guess I was just too busy preparing to come to the states. Just as a recap, we found our solemnization day photographer through sgweddingforum.com. Yes, we had a wedding package with Style Bridal Studio but we would like to explore the skills of other photographers in Singapore. Besides, photographer is not included in the package.

We saw Arsh's work through his website and were pretty impressed by them. He seemed to be very experienced in taking wedding photos. I called him up to schedule for a meeting straight after. Ju overslept and I had to meet Arsh alone and passed him the deposit. I couldn't remember how much he charged but I could only remember it was slightly above our budget. Since it was our big day, we thought it was totally fine to burst our budget by a little to have this special moment capture beautifully by the lens of a very experience photographer.

On that day, Arsh came on time and met us in the hotel room. He was very professional and started taking pictures once he was ready. We gave him the freedom to romp around the room and taking pictures of every single detail of our special day. Even after the main event was over, he took me and my beautiful bride around the hotel to take some more photos. When we received the photos, we were amazed. It wasn't just a normal CD-R. In fact, the CD had our picture on its cover. Very professional! We never regret hiring him as our photographer of the day. Simply awesome!

Here's his website: http://arshphotography.com

Enjoy the pics folks!

Our New Drive

After two weeks of car hunt, we finally got a new ride. A 2006 Chevy Malibu. It was the first car we tried that day and man... We fell in love with it instantly! It drives as smooth as a new car and the interior is well maintained. Besides, the total mileage clocked is just 50,000! The only flaw for this car is the front two tires were worn and was replaced this evening. This car is so lovely and god bless it will serve us well for the rest of our tour here. 

Our Geo Metro seemed to be leaking pretty badly and we will be bringing it to the mechanic for inspection. Hope it doesn't cost much to repair.
