donkey,
haha really sparkle alot hah? :p

zen/jul,
am comparing the difference btw this destinee and the other diamonds...headache.
 


celine, ya i see the difference tat's why theirs is more pricey. of cos need to be under those down light can see the sparkle normal lighting cant see the diff.
 
donkeymami,

haha! i only remember it's 50+. old liao.... haha!

celine,

if you want something that sparkle and won't see till sian, i mean nai kan, go for destinee. i have one too.

but if want something tat super bling for functions, go for charlottle's garbrielle diamonds. if dun need to bling tat much, but still good quality, go for goldheart.
 
but seriously, i think u go to the different shops to see for yourself better. cos different people like different things mah. some ppl prefer bigger size, some like better clarity, some like better colour, cut etc.
 
zen: Shayna's canines also out b4 molars..

reira: no prob.. Dont need to buy from pharamcy lah, ex. U can buy from forum or online.. i bought mine from http://babydusts.blogspot.com/
(Cos that time she was selling in this forum)

Pegs: hahah... i think it didnt work cos i impatient and maybe i test wrong time? ANd my cycle not accurate one so i didnt want to keep using up the strips. in the end, EWCM still more zun.
 
PEGSFUR

Yes i wanna go. When?

ZEN

Haha sam only teethed at close to 10 mths.

CELINE

GIRDLE is that thin line where the top n bottom of the diamond meet. U know the flat top is table, then sloping down sides. Then they bend n slope inwards. That place where they bend is the girdlr
 
zen,
the SA from Lee Hwa shortlist 2 rings for me, I am now checking the spec. Anyway, I managed to find some info on ideal cut
happy.gif


<font color="0000ff">The Old AGS Ideal Cut Proportion
A diamond cut to Tolkowsky's proportion would be stunning. However, modern research shows that it is not necessary to adhere strictly to Tolkowsky's calculations to achieve maximum light return. It is possible to deviate from Tolkowsky's proportions and still achieve excellent light return. Before 2006, the AGS would grade a diamond's proportions as ideal if it embraces the following tolerances in proportions:


AGS Ideal Cut Proportions (Grade 0)
Table 53-57.5%
Crown Angles 33.7° - 35.8°
Pavilion Angles 40.5° - 41.5°
Pavilion Depth 42.2 - 43.8%
Culet Size None to Medium
Girdle Thin, Medium or Slightly Thick</font>
 
donkey,
ya according to Lee Hwa SA she said destinee range all ideal cut. I am checking the GIA specs to see whether it is really ideal cut and what is the advantage of having ideal cut.

going to ketok my hb, he is really a carrot haha.. :p
 
hee... i thought girdle meant what u wear to make ur tummy flatter... hahah!

i still cannot wear my rings leh... =( my fingers feel so bare and lonely..
 
jul,

I just called up JG for dates, but it seems that they have no more trial class, all fully booked le. If want have to wait till next term, which is next year
sad.gif
 
yes yes....
happy.gif
as long as fall within certain specs is all considered ideal. so i feel that u must see the real thing to feel for it.
happy.gif
u know, the feeling when something caught yr eye &amp; tugs at yr heart?

i have the tolkowsky 108 or something cut gabrielle. veri sparkly under lighting. i love it when i was younger. but now, i prefer my normal tiffany silver mesh ring or normal plain simple gold band. hahahahah! my hb asked me why am i keeping the diamond rings at one corner.
 
celine, to me it's all abt branding though the different brands carry ideal cut diamonds. if you'd like to customise yr own ring, can try the carat club. they do have different types of diamonds or precious stones and you can design yr ring. pricing it's quite reasonable. you'll get exclusive service there. they'll attend to u one &amp; explain &amp; discuss with you. it's like you're the onli one there. hahaha! dun buy also never mind.
 
zen, the old batch only cover 7 strains of viruses the new one cover 13 strains...but this is only for prevnar cos spore hv 2 brands, Prevnar (by Wyeth) &amp; Synflorix (by GSK)
 
Celine, jovia took this cos we gng japan &amp; it's autumn but this vaccine need to take every yr but it's optional jz like adult but adult only i dose..for children need 2 doses.
 
meetup.com playgroup
Recently have joined SG toddler playgroups @ meetup.com for local &amp; expats. However, I've noticed the ones who are actives are mostly expats in both playgroups. Maybe because the playgroup starters are expats?

So I am toying with the idea of starting my own for locals only. There will be a small fee per month for creater to keep the group if I were to start one, so needs to see response before I start one.

The features at meetup.com is great I feel. Especially when comes to organizing playdates, meetups &amp; weekend lunch date.

Anyone think it is a good idea?

pegsfur, BabyS
wow, thanks for the recommendation.is it accurate?

celine
wow, thanks. can share with me the icing image co?
 
PJPJ and I are starting our own playgroup. we just share cost of meterials bought.. Intending to have it on saturdays, at my place..

SHe do story telling, i'll do arts and craft and music time.
 
Sand, where is your place and what time would it be? Can we join too if we can make it? Zachary needs some story telling, arts &amp; crafts as well as music sessions!
 
PEGSFUR

Oh no! So disappointing! But my voucher will expire next yr
sad.gif


So r u gog to wait till next yr? What other trials r u interested in? Was thinking of trying one of those gym places n a more 'intellectual' one like GUG? Wanna go together befire i go back to work?
 
Meet up/playdates/play group
I've just created a meetup group @ meetup.com for local parents. Love the meet up schedule &amp; reminder features!

Hope to create more meet ups with FTWM too. For those who work near each other, you may create lunch dates as well.

It is great to create trials at any educational centre like JG, Shicida, Kindermusik ect.

Looking for organizer for playdates located in the East, Central &amp; South Area. Those who are interested, please email me through the "contact us" page.

yeah, i understand that. ever since weishy went back to work, I noticed we meet up lesser and lesser! last time atleast once a month or once every 2 months during weekend. but now like rarely (cept lunch dates among FTWM). haha so far for this year, think we only had group meetup for about 2 times during these 10 mths.
 
jul,

I've went for GUG already ... i dun mind those gym type. Tampines has this My Gym, thinking of trying it out as well. How?
 
Hi pegsfur

i have checked with MyGym Tampines not long ago but havent confirm the trial with them..

This is wat i get from them:
"For your child, i would recommend he goes to our Waddlers level (8 mths - 18mths). We do have prematured children in our class and since then they are developing very well according to the feedback of the parents. This is a 45mins parent participation class where program includes music n movement, puppetry, gymnastics, swing time and many more,

You are welcome to join our trial session. We will waive the trial fees ($35) should you join us after the trial session.
We look forward to you and your child to join us soon. Pls feel free to contact us if you have further enquiry."
 
babyja / pegsfur
I received a flyer from MyGym, they have a trial offer at $5 only. Maybe you can call them to ask.

I'm interested in MyGym, its only 5 mins walk from my mum's place.
happy.gif
 
hi kiki, the trial is arrange individually with the My Gym, or need minimum group size to have? i also interested...maybe we could organise something tog? $5 only?? baby ja, update us after u call can?? thanks...
 
Jeni
the MyGym trial is for individual but I think we can call to see if we can join together.

GUG had the 50% off trial class during Sept. Maybe you can call them to see if they have any offer in Oct
 
rei,
I got the icing from BIY @ Bukit Timah

may I know what is the meetup website for? Is it not possible to create similar info at our facebook group? sorry just curious
 
kiki,

Tks for informing! I just gave My Gym a call to enquire and it seems that only those with the flyer is entitled to the $5 trial, without flyer is $35. Group trial is not available as well and like JG, they can only slot in 2 places per trial.

Trial dates: Thursday, Friday &amp; Saturday
Timing: Thursday 3pm, Friday 9.30am, Saturday 9.30am
 
pegsfur
huh? why like that? I received the flyer thru my letterbox n I think they just distribute to everyone in the block lor...
nevermind, later I see the letterbox area got any left behind or not
 
My Gym.
One day we decided to trial My Gym. My hb told me, "ok only trial, pls do not sign up har?!" I assure him, "yes, yes only trial." After 45min daddy n baby playtime, daddy carried baby out and said, "Sign Sign sign up now!" My hb noticed my girl was very timid (like mommy) when doing gym and climbing. My girl was extremely scare of all the climbings. After 3 weeks in My Gym, Since last week, she has been calling everyone to stand up or sit down and do exercise with her. When we follow her, she will smile, if we dont, she will point at you and make a noise to ask you to follow. If you are supposed to stand and you sit, she will point at you and make noise and pull your hand to stand with the rest. After 3 weeks there, she didnt cry when doing swing now, she loves My Gym. Her nightmares (we suspect was from My Gym) have also stopped. We love My Gym. Heehee...
PS: The daddy and baby bonding becomes stronger, Now I start to jealous... ...
 
celine
I find the event option of fb very messy. and the meet up group is more of like for everyone in SG, not just among RL friends.
 

kikilala, I might see you there.
happy.gif
You should go last week, it was really fun, all of us (including the audiences) enjoyed it. BTW, you should ask when is their open house. Cos open house allows all to trial together and if you sign up on the spot, you dont hv to pay trial and membership. I was late for the open house for one day only so hv to pay membership fee.
