I'm BACK!

been back to SG for about 1 week now.. still have a little jet-lag feeling.. but getting better.. both AH & myself enjoyed the trip alot especially our PS.. and I finally know how it feels to be a celebrity.. Hee..

First was my acyclic nails.. oh well the nail extensions are not the main hoo-haa.. its the nail art & crystals on them.. In the US, ladies only do the basic manicure/pedicure.. and the furthest they go is just to put on extensions.. no nail art and no crystals.. so when I walked around, standing in que or even waiting for the lift.. the ladies around me will go "WAH" and start admiring my nails.. and I have answered where I did them and where I'm from for the 123456789th time... Every1 was making me so shy to the point that I have to ask AH to pay at the cashier or press the lift buttons..  

Next is PS!! My PG and MUA told me that in the US, its really rare for couples to take pre-wedding shots.. they only do enagagement shots and AD photography.. enagegement shots are usually more casual, wearing casual clothes and makeup is also relative light.. As we walked around Broadwalk and SF city in gowns & suits.. everybody started staring at us.. and some people even took out their cameras and start to take photos of us.. There were even people who requested to have a pic with us.. so funny!

Our PS was super duper rush but FUN!

Woke up around late morning, went to buy balloons for PS in Broadwalk and collect my hand bouquet from the florist.. Took out all the clothings, shoes & accessories that are required.. lazed around in the hotel room waiting for the MUA to arrive.. I love the make up & hair she did.. but a pity that I didnt take a close up shot of both hair styles she did for me as we were rushing.. our PG came 2 hours later and off we go for our PS!

We braved thro the strong winds and cold weather in Santa Cruz and SF.. the temperature got much lower as evening came.. and I still need to brace myself for the night shots! We didn't manage to have our PS taken at the Golden Gate Bridge as it was fogging quite badly.. half the bridge was being covered in the fog :(  Moved on to have our night shots taken at Treasure Island.. I personally loved that location, never heard of it until my PG suggested it for our night PS.. the place is so spooky!! There's an abandoned naval camp on the island and we actually went in there for PS.. cool right! We stayed in that place past 11pm.. and every1 was frozen at the end of it... really chilly winds!

I'm so looking forward to the photos.... esp the ones taken on Treasure Island.. :D
