[VDL - Part 8] Meet the Parents

And the parents met today!

Probably one of our most worrying things to settle for the wedding. Heard so many awful stories that we've became rather paranoid abt it.

The session took place at Teochew City Seafood Restaurant because our original choice, East Ocean, was closed for private function.

Food at Teochew City was pretty good :) especially the Teochew cold crab and pumpkin yam paste.

The atmosphere was easy and comfortable and all of them were talking to each other with an odd sense of familiarity, it felt like they've known each other for quite sometime...

The funny thing is... They talked abt everything under the sun and only got to the main topic after the entire dinner. And it only lasted a good 15 mins!

But we are so so thankful that everything went well and smooth and they were still lingering at the escalator aft we left the restaurant, talking to one another! I think it really helps that our parents have met before and our mums have even gone on a tour tgt :)

And something interesting came out of the discussion. We may have new plans for post-marital accommodation.

But that... We'll settle in due time :)

Great week ahead everyone!

Momentum

Been back from our Korea trip for more than 2 weeks! Can't help but lament again, how time flies....

Had an enjoyable time during the photoshoot and we're pretty happy with the photos and the whole experience :) Just done with choosing our photos for the album :D More about that in another VDL post! And I'll probably do another Travel Diary post when I'm free to sum up my Korea trip :)

Right now, I'm just taking life one step at a time and trying to swing back into momentum. The right momentum.

Been trying to return home early so that I can watch TV with my family, have a good chat with mum, do some reading and have an early night.

Started on Purpose Driven Life when I was down on MC a week after I'm back. An awesome book and I have so much to learn from it. Been counting my blessings that God has so graciously showered upon me. I'm learning once again to seek true joy and not just fleeting happiness.

Speaking of MC, I felt pampered silly by Poppy's sweet gesture of sending me a bouquet of flowers to my house... Waking up to the sweet smell of fresh flowers was such an amazing feeling :)
