Have been missing from my page for a long time! Life has gotten extremely busy and tiring. Now I'm blogging once again after so many months..and things have changed and I'm not blogging for the first time as a Mrs. And yes, I'm officially married!

So... Let's begin.

12.12.2016 will now be a day I'll always count down too because it's a really special day for both me and JL. WE SAID I DO, YAY! 💍

Started off by going to the bridal shop to take my ROM dress and have my hair and make up done. Thank you to my husband for fetching me there and sleeping in the shop while waiting for me haha! It took quite a while for me to be done and we were there at the bridal shop quite early since our solemnization starts at 10.30am.

Everyone has already reached the ROM before us. Took some photos while waiting for our turn. Quite nervous at first as we're not sure what we're suppose to do. Witness of our marriage was my dad and JL's mom. Said our vows, and the whole ceremony was short and sweet. Within a short 10mins I've had my status changed from Ms Lim to Mrs Chia.

Can't believed this actually happened to us haha. I've never expected JL to be my husband, especially when I've known him since my secondary school days and losing contacts for sooooooo many years before we found our way back to each other and ended up being as one. Life is indeed a funny cycle.

Took more photos before leaving the registrar of marriage for our lunch with both families. I'm very thankful for each and everyone of you who have attended and witness this very day of ours. Only families are invited as we want it be a special one which only involves our very close ones.

I'm now looking forward to our wedding ceremony! Till then readers! 👰🏻

  ❤️ HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOVE ❤️  

Surprised him with a ring he always wanted on the plane. Glad he love it. Took me so much trouble to look for one which has his size. Perks of a big hand. 

This cheeky JL got me a deflatable neck rest and an angry looking sleeping mask and when I asked why, he said it looks like me because I'm always angry at him. HAHA! Why are you so cute. 

It's JL's birthday and we spent it at Taiwan. Midnight flight and we were struggling with out lack of sleep. Bought some bites from the airport before we take a bus from the airport to Taipei main station so we can take a train to our hotel at Xi Men Ding. The sushi were damn good! 

We were only able to check in at 3pm so we left out luggage at the lobby and went to have our breakfast and look around for a SIM card before going to Tamsui. Please.. If you were want to get a SIM card in Taiwan, get it from the airport or telco stall else you might never be able to get one. They were all out of stocks at their 7-11 outlets. 

Most of the shops we still close when we reached tamsui so we walked around and snap some photos with the beautiful views while waiting for the stalls to be opened. 

Tried this red bean pancake. They are so damn generous with their red bean paste! The paste was overflowing when we ate it! Played some stall games there and won some small prizes. Doing things like this actually makes us so happy. Wandered around before going back to the hotel at 2+. We literally wasted our afternoon and sleep all the way till 7+. Prepared and head to Raohe night market. 

I love night markets. Food and shopping! Had wild boar sausage, cheese potato, beef cubes cooked by blowing torch, and stinky toufu! Yummy, I miss the beef cubes! Played shooting games too! I'm really amazed by JL's balloon shooting skills! 

Day 2

Yong He Beancurd for breakfast before heading to Shifen. Took a train to Taipei main station, changed to a northbound train towards Ruifang except Keelung. It's damn confusing to me, thank god JL's Chinese is so much better than me. We then took a railway train towards Pingxi and alighted at shifen. Here comes the start of our first sky lantern together. Had so much fun writing all the wishes and blessings on our lantern. 

We rented an electric scooter to go to shifen waterfall. I haven't seen it before so JL brought me there. It was beautiful. Ride around the area before returning it. I tried the scooter and my god, I swear I can't ride at all.

Settled our lunch before heading back to the hotel to rest before we start feasting at the Shilin night market. We bought some salmon sashimi back to the hotel from Taipei main station, it wasn't enough for us obviously hahaha. 

Shilin night market is full of games stalls. I tried this really interesting dish. It's called fried milk LOL! They literally fried frozen milk. Managed to buy a few clothings and a shoe :/ I will never have enough of them. 

Day 3

Had oyster omelette and oyster vermicelli for breakfast. Our location for the day is Wufenpu. It's a wholesale place. But there wasn't much that I get to buy there. Possibly cause they were so similar to clothings sold at night markets and they weren't really my kind of style. We spent almost half the day there though. 

Before heading back to our hotel we saw a temple so went to take a look at it. No harm looking at something different from Singapore.









Rest again as we were damn tired from all the walkings. Heading to Gong Guan night market to walk around. We left after awhile as its kinda small and there's nothing much, basically food stalls with really long queues. We didn't want to queue and wait. Headed to Shida night market next. It's near school campus so there's more clothings at cheaper rates. I bought quite a few there. Back to our hotel and we saw the spray painting artist just right beside Ximending station. Bought 3 paintings from him. They were really really amazingly beautiful. I really love them all!!!!! It's our last night here and we were worn out everyday. JL went to buy MOS burger back for supper while I waited in the hotel. We gambled our night away before we sleep at 3+ in the morning.

Last day

Woke up early to buy sun biscuits and pineapple cake before having our breakfast, I had mushroom noodle which were disappointing while JL had braised pork rice which were so nice. :( Went back hotel to have our final pack before checking out. We booked Ding Taxi the night before to fetch us to the hotel at 750NTD. It's like grab taxi which is really affordable. 

Reached airport and decided walk around and have a meal before we board as our flight was delayed.  Went to Bistro:D for late lunch.









Went up the plane and woke up half way in between our flight to JL's question. "WHERE IS THE PAINTING?" Stupid us left it in the bistro cafe. Hahahah! I was so sad and guilty the whole trip back. And thankfully to our friend who went Taiwan after our trip help us get it back from the lost and found counter. So thankful!!!! My painting is back! So many miles away and yet being able to get it back. My Best Buy from Taiwan. Here's how mine looks like, I'm in love. 

Shall end here now, Cheers!
