Wedding,cakes and more cakes!!!

I went to the Wedding Fair with Jamie at Suntec Convention Hall on the 1st of November(don't get this wrong..none of us are getting married...)she just wanted to get some "info" about weddings as her dream is to become a wedding planner
(i bet she watch this movie before that's why she wants to become one..)...awwww..so sweet right???Except for the fact that she keeps insisting that i should get married to my boyfriend...no way man...plus i know i am not marriage material at least not now...

Since young,my mom always gives me the mind set that one must be quite successful(at least enough to support the house, family and kids..) before starting a family...so with me being a shopping queen
Marriage is definitely not for me yet...
Well another taboo that i have that comes right after marriage is... Pregnancy(damn scary word for me la..i am a toufu/beancurd i can't stand the pain of giving birth..)!!!
Although i adore babies and always think that babies are cute,i feel that if you don't have the ability to give the kid a good life,don't make them suffer with you..besides there is always an option to adopt kids if i am too old to give birth right???Well, maybe i will go adopt a kid if i have enough money...i am not kidding okay..i feel we should give those poor kids a chance...

Don't get me wrong,i not unromantic at heart..i'm just like any girl... i like fairytale pretty weddings,the romance with lace everywhere,cakes and stuff but strangely enough,i never had the desire of getting married as i feel that i am still young and i feel i that i should explore the world and have more choices before deciding to tie the knot with the one that i feel is the right man...

Besides Singapore divorce rates are quite high....

Comparing the divorce rate in Singapore with other countries we see that the divorce rate in Singapore is quite little compared with some other developed countries:

Divorce rate per 1,000 population:
Thailand: 0.58
China: 0.79
Singapore: 0.8
Korea: 0.88
Finland: 1.85
Canada: 2.46
Australia: 2.52
New Zealand: 2.63
Denmark: 2.81
United Kingdom: 3.08
Russia: 3.36
Puerto Rico: 4.47
US: 4.95


So divorce rates in Thailand is about 16.16% of the divorce rates in USA.


Well enough of the gloomy talk...

We saw some displays of cakes and we decided to take some pictures...end up the enthusiastic Jamie took more pictures than expected as she saw 3 big books of cakes and she decided to take all the pictures of the cakes in the book....until to the extend that even the wedding staff from the Conventional Hall came and asks us whether we own a bakery shop...

Booby traps at the Suntec Conventional Hall Wedding Show..

Booby trap no. 1Ps:(i put all of us in different colours so that you know who is talking in the conversation...)

Jamie - taking non-stop pictures of the cakes in the book with my camera

Lady - "Hi, we still have one more day for the fair tomorrow and if you are interested you can meet the baker who bakes all this cakes..."as she looks at us with a snobbish face telling us to leave...

Jamie - stops for a while feeling a little pai seh(embarrassed)

Lady - asks this question..."Do you guys actually own a bakery store???" i mean why does she have to ask this type of stupid questions??the way she says it is as if i want to steal her ideas and open a bakery store...besides,they never put any signage to indicate that no pictures are allowed...

Jamie - "erm i think we should stop taking pictures and go..."

Me - looking at the third and last book of cakes that she haven't take pictures with,i said "ai yah just continue taking pictures la...you already took so many it doesn't make a difference anyway..."

Lady - with irritated look just walk away...

Booby trap no. 2

Next 5 mins as both of us were very contented to take so many pictures...
A guy dragged us and forced us to sit at the wedding booth..

Guy - looks at us and said "which of you ladies are getting married??"


Jamie and i pointed at each other nervously as we didn't expected such a question to pop out of no where..(the truth is none of us are getting married...)

Guy said "so both of you ladies are planning to get married together??"(he thinking that he got two more 大鱼"big fishes" into his pond...)smiles happily...

Jamie - "no la,she(referring to me..) is the one getting married actually..."and she happily points her finger to me...arghhhh...and she continued saying that actually i have a boyfriend for a long time and i am planning to marry him in the next one or two years...duh...i feel like she 陷害我(it means to backstab me......she damn evil lah...i mean what to do now as she already say things like that to the wedding sales guy???the next thing i know i am already sitting at the booth as i smile helplessly and pretend that i am the one getting married...


Booby Trap 3

At the booth that the guy dragged us to talk to another lady...

Lady 2 - "Oh, which of you are getting married??"

Me - "Me" as i resigned to my fate that i am playing the role of the one getting married...

Lady 2 - "Come i show you some pictures of couples that got their wedding pictures done in Taiwan as she happily brings out 5 to 6 big books of married couples...

i had to admit that the photography skills of the photographer is not bad as i really like the flower theme package with the gardens,lavender and all... and surprisingly one of the grooms in the picture is damn hot!!!he practically looks like those korean actors with bushy black eye brows, small but seductive eyes and he has a super lean v shaped body...i really envy the woman that is marrying that guy btw...

Jamie - had quick thinking wits and said the most important thing that every interested buyer will ask and that is "how much is the package for the photos to be taken in Taiwan??"even i was convinced...

Lady 2 - being very smart she tells us that it is $2000 ++...and didn't really want to continue telling us the details in case we find their price too steep..

Me - out of curiosity,i made her tell us how much was her "++" and it turned out that the total package was about $2899(lets say $2900 for easy counting...)without the air tickets being included in the package...so when i got all the info she wanted,i told that lady that i need to discuss with "my husband"and if i am interested i will come the next day and look for her..i know i am such a faker...haha...but i am forced into this situation by you know who..

So you think we finally escaped from the clutches of the wedding sales people???think again...


Booby Trap 4

As i finally thought that my ordeal with faking is over,Jamie wanted to continue her conquest of becoming a wedding planner and she decided to scout for the wedding books that they were selling at the fair.. as we finally went to the stop where she could get her books for $6 each,she saw 2 more books with a goodie bag that weren't on sale and the only obstacle is that we had to register with the 1st lady we saw earlier(remember the one who says that we own baker store??yup that lady...) to get only 1 book and a goodie bag each..so without a question,she signed up and put her NRIC no. on the list...actually i didn't wanted to register but since she kept eyeing the other book and whispered so loudly(i think that lady heard if i am not wrong) that i should register so that she can get the other book so i registered along with her and gave her my book except that i took the goodie bag home...muahahaha..

Oh for those people who plans to get married and get their pictures taken in Taiwan,their promotion package is with 3 days 2 night lodging and the price is $2899SGD without the air tickets to Taiwan..

Btw my sis had the privilege of seeing this pictures 1st and as she was screening the pics from my camera, i told her that i wanted "one" of the castle cakes to be my belated 21st birthday cake as this year i never really celebrate(its damn pathetic la..i ate in the food court and went to the dentist to pluck my tooth on my 21st bdae and sleep my whole birthday away as the tooth ache kicks when the anthesteptic was gone...argghhh...i sure won't forget what i did on my 21st birthday even if i reach the age of 70...)so to make up for it i wish that my birthday cake will be a castle cake fit for a princess next year....hehehe...

To my horror she though that this cake is the one i wanted for my birthday next year...
i mean this cake is damn fugly(means f***ing ugly) la...i mean why would i want to make a mini me that looks like a midget standing on top of such a small castle...arghhh..Shhhh don't say so loudly as that couple actually gt married with this cake...


This is the cake that i actually wanted...much nicer right??if the previous cake is the one that i wanted,i think i must be blind....
the only thing is that my sis says that this cake should be damn expensive.. it may cost about $1k... when i heard that my eyes almost popped out...no way am i going to pay $1k for a cake unless i become mega rich...wahahaha...

Also upon seeing this lian hua(my sis calls it the mudan hua..its also very funny la...) cake i laugh hysterically and accidently said very loudly "haha where got people marry with such an ugly cake man damn funny la..."as i was saying that Jamie laugh and she said that i am damn bad..actually there is really prove of the married couple cutting the lian hua cake but we didn't take that pic as it is damn bad to post pictures of people's wedding and laugh out loud right??Besides there is always such a thing called karma...and since i am not married yet i better stop laughing at people's wedding...but it's a shame as that pic is hilarious...if you see the picture you sure will laugh out loud just like me and Jamie... and somemore this photo of the lian hua cake was on the first page of the book that we browse on...


Any way these are the pictures of the cakes that she took with lots of effort and although conditions were harsh as many people were staring at her,she still managed to complete taking the photos from all three albums...

So you guys should really feel blessed since i decided to uploaded these pictures...
The pictures below with the glow spot are cakes that she took pictures from the album..so bear with it ok...











































































These are the actual displays of the cakes that made us enticed with the baker's skill...
