Woke up today at 7am. Took today & tomorrow off from work because there's a lot of errands to run. The rest of the house is awake too. Went for breakfast at the coffeeshop downstairs, then took a cab to ROM. Arrived at 8.05. ROM opens at 8.30. So had to stand outside. Soon more couples started to arrive, and everyone stood outside. As 8.30 nears, all couples (including us) edge closer to the main door, hoping to be 1st in line. Darn, should have formed queue right from the start.
8.30am. Doors open. Our queue number: 0006. Waited for about 10 mins, got attended by a man, who upon realizing that the Solemnizer is my uncle, cut short the briefing, on the pretext that "your uncle will brief you". We had to pledge some civil oath to declare that we're above 18, not currently married, and that all information in Form A is correct. After which Mr ROM hands us the cert & other paper docs for that day. Total time spent with Mr ROM: 15 mins.
Author's note: Remember to bring your ICs, witnesses' IC (original or photocopy) & letter of consent by Solemnizer.
9.30am. Arrived Woodlands 656. The big spring cleaning begins. This involved mopping the floors, wiping stuff, cleaning toilets, changing bed sheet. The whole affair was a 4-people effort that lasted for 2 hours.
1pm. Lunch at Everything with Fries, Holland Village. Loved the lamb burger. But can't wait for the Fergburger in Queenstown.
6pm. Rehearsal. Realised that the march-in is very long. Selected the march-in music and tested out all the audio & video. The hotel AV coordinator is very friendly and accommodative. We are also thankful that everyone came for the rehearsal in full force.

Woke up at 7am again. Because of stomach ache. Realised I missed out a friend's bday yesterday. HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY MELISSA!
Breakfast at coffee shop. Rented 6 plastic chairs for $1 each (deposit $100) from the warehouse at Depot Lane. Went back to pack cum clean my room. I have 2 luggages to pack: overnight bag for the hotel & things to put in new house and beyond.
11am. Mani & Pedi at Summer Nail Salon Great World City. Bought deal at $22 for gelish. Normal pedicure costs $32.30. Am typing this as I wait for the pedi to dry.
