The First Homecoming with Wedding Bells.

It was six months ago when we had our pre-wedding shoot.

Now, a sneak peek at some behind-the-scene photos...
Dear wife putting on make-up...
The difficult part, sticking on the eyelashes!
Our fantastic make-up artist, Candy, from La belle Couture.
Our photographer, Kenny, giving dear wife some tips during the indoor shoot...
I had make-up too. ;-) Had failed many times to create this hairdo...
The mature look...
Princess look...
My sweetie pie!
And the groom all ready too... Hah.
One of the outdoor location we had chosen was our Alma Mater, NTU. With the help of our former lecturer, Prof Yeow, we obtained the kind permission of the university to shoot in the school grounds. Some of the places we went included the laboratory, lecture theatre, library and the green roof of the School of Art, Design and Media.

Dashing through the famous "fingers" of the university spines.
The staffs at the various facilities were informed and welcomed us. In fact, School of Computer Engineering (SCE) Alumni Office arranged an interview with us. It was great opportunity to share my experiences with the SCE undergraduates. But unable to dispense much sound advices, while perspiration was dripping. In gist, my advice was for undergraduates to really immerse themselves in their university life. Whereas academic always comes first, the remaining time should be dedicated to meaningful school activities (such as volunteering or various CCA) and to expanding their social circles.

The Electronics Laboratory was my FYP lab. Thus, the homecoming was extra special to me. I met my FYP supervisor, Prof Vun, in the lab.
The lab technicians made us feel like celebrities. We autographed the first edition of the SCE yearbook and drew some lucky numbers. I hope they were winning numbers!

Fooling around with the bread board... we couldn't quite remember how to wire the components up. Heh heh.
But we sure know all the stylo-poses. ;-p
The 'interview' was publish in the Dec '09 issue of the SCE newsletter, Pulse. Our glorious photo graced half the page.
Strangely, there was no mention of what we said. :-) I guess that saved us from some embarrassment. Hee,

It was a long tiring day of photo-shoot...
We congratulated ourselves for the job well done! 成功！
You can find the fruits of our hard work here!

If I am not wrong, 2010 will be the official NTU Homecoming year for the class of 1990, 1995, 2000 and 2005. How fast time flies? Blink of an eye, five years gone by. I am looking forward to going back again... not in wedding gowns, but in the company of old friends!

The Bridal Dowry.

The delivery of dowry ( 送嫁妆 ) is another important custom. It represents parent's effort for her daughter to have a good life after marriage and prepare her with the necessities for being a good wife. I am amazed by some of the things included in the dowry. Of course, in our modern living, we will not be using some of those things... Nevertheless, I think it is all good to have them, as each item carries a good meaning for our blissful marriage. :-)

I Will Be Back With More Time.

It is more than two years since I last blogged! Not that nothing interesting happened. In fact, plenty happened! Shifted house, shifted office, boys grew, had Hand Foot Mouth Disease (ouch!)! Just to name a few. There were gains and losses. Life's ups and downs. Of me, and those around me. I haven't been doing much deep thinking and thus less writing. Not enough time? That is probably an excuse. But it is true that I have not slept well for quite awhile. It is hard to explain the stress from work, where nothing goes smooth, and every step forward is a hurdle. Technology also had made it simple and addictive for us to mindlessly share. Share our thoughts in bits and pieces. Forming persona of ourselves to acquaintances and friends I hardly meet anymore. I remember experimenting with Tumbler, finding ways to post once, publish everywhere. It didn't quite work out. Even when technology made it is so easy, I have not been diligently editing and uploading photos of my darlin
