Attended Fishy's wedding yesterday

yesterday was Fishy n Mermaid's wedding.. i am one of the "brother" team.. we meet up at 6.30 am before proceeding to Mermaid's hse for the gate crashing..

the convoy reached Mermaid's hse ard 7.15am n were waiting for e "ah gu" to "kick" open Fishy's bridal car.. after a few mins wait.. we were ready to "attack" Mermaid's gang of sisters with a loud shout of "huat ah"..

the 1st "punishment" was as usual.. eating wasabi.. we ahd our tears flowing before e 2nd "punishment" was announced.. which was to collect 5 signatures from strangers n photos of them.. one pretty gal run away after Joe approached her for the signature.. haha.. we completed this "punishment" within e 10mins given.. we were also punished with push ups n star jumps after fishy failed to find e correct key to e door..

after some custom ceremonies.. we were preparing to go to Fishy's hse n as usual.. we were aiming to pick up e pretty sisters.. avoiding e not so pretty ones.. esp one nicknamed "qi kai bang bang zhu".. but our arrangement is always to let e bachelors in our group to hv e priority.. so Aki n Chernobyl pick up most of e sisters.. leaving e photographers for me.. e morning customeries were over at abt 11am..

at 5pm.. i went to pick up Mermaid's parents to the hotel.. i pick up Rong Rong after tat n we were in the hotel waiting for the ROM ceremony.. we did not go in for the ROM in the end as it was quite packed.. but at abt 7.30pm.. e shocker came when Fishy told me that he forgot to bring his black pants..!!! we were deciding to go back Yishun to collect or to buy one.. in e end.. I n Rong Rong rush to buy him e pants n lucikiy.. we were in time for his 1st march in.. we were glad tat our efforts were worth it as we can see how relief Fishy n Mermaid were..

Fishy was alright until he drank e power drink prepared by us.. half a glass of Chivas with 2 raw eggs n wine.. after that.. Fishy becomes doggy n 'high'.. they were also very sporting to play e 'banana" game..

After most of e guests left.. me n Rong Rong were waiting for Mermaid's parents to send them back.. in e meantime.. we witness some of the antics by Fishy.. trying to play piano.. doing push ups.. pouring beer on his head.. n greeting hotel guests.. i must say that although Fishy is a bit high.. but all e antics were done in good spirit..

we reached home abt 1.30am n were tired.. but as what they say.. we are next..!!!

07/07/07 - The day we ROM..

wake up early today to prepare our ROM today.. it's drizzling a bit outside but that would not damper our spirit..

after washing up.. we went to bt batok for rong's make-up n hairdo n although e make-up was not as gd as wat rong want.. but after some touching up.. it was ok.. e make-up took more then 2 hrs n we hv to rush to e flowerist to collect e bouquet of flower.. after tat.. we pick up rong's parents n sis n head to Furama Hotel.. by this time.. e rain had already stopped..





after alighting rong n her parents.. i went to pick up my mum n sis n was back in e hotel at 1.45pm.. i quickly went to change n go to e function room to welcome our guests.. e 1st to arrive were Leonard n Weijing.. follow by Amy n Peijing.. slowly.. all other guests arrived.. some of them were delayed slightly by e unavailabilty of carpark lots.. including e JP.. but all arrive in time for e solonmisation to start as planned.. i must also say that Foy n Arthur.. e hotel co-ord.. were very helpful n really help make e whole event a very smooth n successful one..






e solonmisation was quick.. but i can see that rong.. her father n my mum.. were a bit nervous.. we even hv to be reminded by e JP to hold our hands when we stood up to recite the pledge..



but it went on smoothly n after taking group photos with our guests..



we start e high tea buffet.. e food were nice n plentiful.. they keep refilling n there was never a moment that e food was not enuf.. everyone eat to their hearts content n by e that time.. all e guests were relax n chatting away happily.. e JP left after taking some food..


overall.. i hv to say that e service n quality of e hotel were excellent.. no complaints abt it except fot e low no. of carpark lots available.. we hv a deluxe room to stay for e night too.. lunch included.. :)

Setting up of our Marine Fish Tank


the smaller fish tank in the bar counter.. decorated with alu foil..











After getting fishy to help me carry.. finally this heavy bugger is seating in e fixture.. rong rong n me spend more then one hr leveling it.. it is estimated to be 300-500kg with water.. so a stainless steel stand was customised for it










the sump tank.. which is almost 3 times e size of e main tank.. this is to create e best possible filter efficiency for e whole system

Marine Fish Tank



Finally.. after more then 2 months i hv ordered the fish tanks for my marine fish set up.. they hv arrived.. it is so heavy that i need to ask fishy to help to carry it to the stand with me.. after some levelling.. it is now seating pretty in the fish tank fixture.. although there are some modification needed for the fixture as the opening is a bit out of size.. i believe all can work out well as planned.. attached picture of my initial planning and perspective dwg of the fish tank..
