Go for the first one.Originally posted by icyprincess:alrite here is the two sets I have been eying...
This one is simple but elegant. Cost less.
Looks very nice to me, but do you think it is a bit...erm girlish? or too fanciful? This is quite expensive...
i.c.y
Me oso found a set similar to it.
I think it cost less than $20.
Waiting for it as christmas present from my friends..
Though I seldom play, since I don't bring it out n my friends seldom come to my house.
The chinese chess my friend bought me oso collecting dust in one corner.

but do u tink the board for the first one a bit too narrow? like no place to move like dat?
i dunno, I am not an avid chess player. tho he has been trying to get me to learn from him.

U can just comb around for something similar.
gd what, chess is a gd mental exercise.
ppl who play chess n mental games alot has lower chance of lao ren chi dai. -
Studied hard for an exam yet mess it up sure don't feel good but then what's done cannot be undone.
Money commonly root of most problems. When comes to money matters with friends its always very hard to handle. Think you should talk to yr ex housemate, show them the bills etc and hopefully they are 'good' enough to have some conscience to pay you back.
Go enjoy the show. If the guy insists in giving you a good treat even after you said its not necessary.. thn by all means, go have a good time with him.
I just treated a gal to a $130 dinner without her asking. Good treats does not restrict to just bf/gf. As long as both parties enjoy the event.. why let money issues spoil the event. -
Girl... Enjoy what he wants to give you. This being the first stages of a relationship the guy wants to do things right and make you happy - let him! Be a graceful date and that's all the reward he'll ask for. :]
Don't spoil something good over small issues.
I understand you worry about his extravagence... I think one night out on the town is acceptable. It's a problem only if he splurges very frequently. -
whoa X-men so rich siah.Originally posted by X-men:Studied hard for an exam yet mess it up sure don't feel good but then what's done cannot be undone.

$130 not gf, U wooing her is it??? -
First set looks more classic
The chess board should be extendable. It should open up to be as big as the one in picture two. Better check with seller about this.Originally posted by icyprincess:yea I think that way too..like second one a bit too fanciful..like used for decoration can la..

thanks for your advice. I do feel better now. Talked to him again just now before he went for work...and he told me the same thing. He told me to enjoy the show, since I was the one who wanted to watch it so much. So now I can enjoy it all the more since it is really the front and center row. Said it was quite hard to get the ticket for that row...so yea I will not let anything spoil this for us.Originally posted by X-men:Studied hard for an exam yet mess it up sure don't feel good but then what's done cannot be undone.
