hello june!!

pejam celik pejam celik, dh june rupenye kite ni kan. laju btol mase berjalan. to all june's brides, amacam? nervous x? nervous x? msti excited kan? hihihi.. kalo i pun excited jgak kut. atau lebih teruk mungkin dh xmau pgi kje langsung.. hehehe.. ngade2. mcm la awak sorg je yg nk kawin. 

i actually sgt look forward utk june since i sgt2 tension di bulan may. hopefully bala di bulan may cumalah kebetulan dan bukanlah suratan. hahaha.. kalo ikut plan asal, pada bulan june ni btol la tinggal 6bulan je lagi until our wedding day. insyaallah, the date will remain unchanged. tolong la doakan saya ye.. smlm smpat jugak i tanye azam, "u nk kite kawin cepat ke lambat?" to my surprise mamat tu jawab die nk kawin pada date yg slame ni kita plan. halamak, sentimental jgak rupenye abg bouncer aku tu. kut la i expect die jawab "awal" cz dh gatal sgt or "xkisah" cz mamat tu kadang2 hati kering jgak. 

lega bile the majority xde mslh dgn date tu. however, kalo bole xnk la ade yg senget benget plak kan dgn date tu. insyaallah, semoga allah tunjuk kan nur n hidayahnye. *type smbil muke glowing* memandangkan hari2 i dibulan may sume nye pudar2 n even sometimes gelap gelita, maka checklist i dibulan tersebut pun agak kesepian sedikit. mujur la semua pun cume kerja2 mencarik2 dan men-survey2 so semua pun bole dibuat hanya dihujung jari sahaja.

• confirm tailor/designer for nikah out

absolutely done. in fact dari bulan lepas pun. actually yg ni cm pelik skit. skit susah nk dicontrol. i've paid about 70% of the amount walaupun baju tu masih jauh lagi nk siap. i dont know if its really necessary for me to pay even the designer did mentioned that its suppose to be 50/50 and that another 50% is to be paid once baju dh siap. but anyway, i dont want to argue much on this. he have his reason on this jgak. i tgk kt blog die pun mmg baju2 latest die sgt2 comel n sweet. ckp byk pun xgune. at the end of the day mmg kne bayar full. lgpun die mmg xmahal pun. mungkin ape yg die collect tu is the cost. my philosophy, everything will turn out good n beautiful if u're happy. hehehe.. ni la cara i nk sedap kan hati. 

• scout khemah for function @home

this one i scout2 gitu je. the rest i'll leave it to mak. maybe i nk amik skali dgn caterer. btw, caterer i dh jumpe the best candidate. PR pun bagus. rasa, blom try lg. location, shah alam (weehoo!). harga, reasonable n die pun bole buat hall deco! if only caterer ni di approve oleh para2 ibu bapa then everythng should be all ok. n owh, kalo ok jgak i nk mintak die buat kt rumah jgak la for the nikah. =)

• scout honeymoon destination

done! rase mcm dh jumpe je destinasi pilihan. yet there are no action taken. well, biase la. baru survey kan. nk decide kne tggu good offer. shite, i missed AA offer hari tu. isk...

• scout dulang hantaran

on going. so far blom jumpe lagi yg btol2 berkenan dihati. insyaallah sabtu ni nk smbung pencarian n mungkin beli terus. who knows!?

• scout doorgift

on going jgak. dh jumpe potential supplier yg ada aneka barang2 comel kcik2 buat bg kat org ni. tp xdecide lg ape nk bg. telur sudah pasti. n officially me n azam has decided yg doorgift kitorg akan bagi separately. so, xpayah la nk sedondon sgt. =)

btw, saje nk share experience mase gi promosi kerja kahwin kat pusat kraftangan hari tu. as i mentioned, pgi sane pun nk carik caterer kan. so ade la 7-8 caterer yg kitorg jumpe. dlm 7-8caterer tu mcm2 jenis i jumpe dgn PR masing2. ada yg over confident, ade yg ok2, ade yg mcm nk xnk layan. but of cz sakit hati dgn yg mcm xsuke nk senyum, malas2 nk bgn amik flyers, tunjuk flyers tu pun ikut mate die. i mean, die nk tunjuk kt i so rotate la kasi i bole bace. ni die yg bole bace nk buat ape! mcm2 ragam kan. so far yg i berkenan sgt ni PR die ok. tu pun kitorg communicate through emails je. insyallah kalo everything ok n has been approved, nk kne jumpe n discuss btol2.

wedding date - to be revised =(

badi malang may still blom habis lagi rupenye. baru ingat last week i was problem free but nmpk gaye ujung2 bulan ni pun ade lagi masalahnye. mmg btol bagai dikata, jadi org bertunang ni mmg byk dugaan. they should be more specific especially on may. hahaha.. itu utk i je kut.

so, yesterday i received this shocking news. my date on 23rd december mcm going to be a no-no saje. i was like sgt2 dissapointed. hati i crushed mcm ape tah i pun xtau. proposed that the solemnization to be moved earlier. but xmungkin la november. awal november raya haji. 11/11 adalah hot date yg aku xfancy. n lepas tu adik aku spm. awal bulan december 3minggu berturut2 cuzen aku dh chop. so nmpk gaye mungkin kne postponed atau i kawin bln october. dua2 pun i xsuke. but knowing that this is org tua punye request, i terus rase yg i have no say on this matter. mmg indeed this is my day. but kalo org tua xhappy smpai bile2 pun kite xkan happy jgak kan. *sigh*

officially, i bukan saje diattack monday blues but may blues as well. mood sgt2 la susah hati. hal ni pun i xbole nk turn to azam sgt cz i tau die pun lebih kurang je dgn i. we're not happy. lagi2 bile terkenang kan vendor2 yg dh dibooked. hopefully semua bole selesai ASAP. i want the exact date to be decided by this week. i dh redha je skrg walaupun deep down inside i still hope that we can just stick to this date. 

time is running out

its an entry about my wedding ticker. seriously, its getting scarier. korg2 pnah xrase ape yg i rase? before this mase ticker tunjuk 7-8bln lg ade until my wedding day, i ok je xrase ape. tp skrg bile bulan dh menunjukkan number 6 dan seterusnye akan lebih berkurang i rase sangat nervous plak. no, this is serious men.. xlame lg aku nk kawin!

lps ni i kne btol2 manage my financial. no more main2. movie pun kne puasa byk ni.cite la fast n furious ke, pirates of the carribean ke, i mmg xkan layan. sedih kan? gile ikat perut aku nk kawin ni. bertahan la bag trf ku syg. jgn rosak2. xde duit nk ganti baru. kasut mayb i will have to buy one since satu tu dh patah. imagine wedges bole patah. hish.. time2 gini la kaki aku nk mengganas. mujur hampir semua part yg involve vendor i dh settle kan. tiap2 bulan i mmg akan tabung kan sejumlah besar gaji utk diagih2 kan pada vendor2 bile smpai masenye nnt.

discussion dgn vendors pun is about to be made very soon. insyallah before raya i nk gi jumpe kakak pelamin dgn en. dewan. after raya plak nk kne jumpe abg2 OV n OP begitu juga dgn cik decorator n en. designer. apart from that kne carik barang hantaran n stuff utk dikerjakan seperti dulang hantaran, bunga pahar, door gift n etc.

xpela, ape2 pun insyallah semua akan berjalan lancar. i'll try my best n pray the hardest. again, this feeling sgt scary. bukan ke i patut rase excited? hurm.. is this actually normal? 

kejayaan!

 

its monday n as usual kerja menimbun hingga tatau mane yg nk dibuat dulu n mane yg nk dibuat kemudian. meeting by meeting n skrg masih kt office pun sbb nk tggu boss habis meeting. sobs.. but u know what, sbb boss meeting jgak la i managed to print my borang kursus kahwin!!! weee.. macam nk ketawa keriangan je walaupun i sorg2 dlm chamber chomel walau kecil milik hamba ni. dah berkurun dan berabad dan bermasihi dh kate nk download n print tp xbuat2 pun. at last baru berjaya. rase mcm xsabar nk isi pun ade. tp lek lu.. skali tetibe boss masuk n die ckp "hah! buat ape tu" mati keras aku kt sini gak. so.. lek2 jap eh. isi kat rumah la nnt skali dgn azam (ayat tenangkan diri sendiri) tp nnt kompom kat rumah conquer isi sendiri sorg2. almaklum, tamak..

well, kalo tgk kat sini we have to choose the dates. kalo based on their website, for shah alam area, this march the first week dh penuh. the rest tu ok je xckp pape. thinking of slot it in hujung bulan ni. but im not sure when to submit this form. kalo ikut kat sini die kate submit a week early. tp mcmane nk tau status date tu if dh penuh ke blom. hurm.. baik aku call ustazah ni tanye die je. tp, bile plak la aku nk buat tu.? (sesi dialog bersama diri sendiri) so, if korg yg mane dh ade experience tu sudi2 la share dgn saye ye.. bantu2 la junior chomel mcm saye *mate kelip2*

im the type yg kalo tgh buat tu better finish it all. or else mmg susah la nk sambung buat bnde tu blk. so, in this case tu yg excited nk isi borang skrg n rase nk fax borang ni esok jgak. tp esok ade PC. kalo i blk lambat cmni gak mungkin la bole curik2 fax. hehehe.. nk buat terang2 malu skit. tah pape la.. pk2 blk, sungguh pjg celoteh walau entry ni senanye cume nk bgtau pasal dh print borang kursus nikah. baru PRINT eh.. BARU PRINT dh megah mcm ni. hehehe.. sowi la.. ai excited uols.. excited nk palang lagi satu bende dlm list. sib baik la print borang xtermasuk dlm list. kalo xdgn senang dan gembira smbil mlm tdo lena nye menggaris my list. tehehe...

-THE BIG DAY!-

btw, pagi td ternampak invitation ni kat atas meja mkn. well, its for mak abah frm their cuzen. know wht, mcm ni la i nk my invitation card to be. one piece je. penat heh bertikam lidah dgn azam about this. since skrg dh ade contoh. xsabarnye nk tunjuk die!!!

Dewan Raja Muda Musa ku!!

Saat yg dinanti2 telah tibe.

*drumroll*

*

*

*
venue - sanding

venue - tandang

surat kebenaran guna dewan raja muda musa, kompleks belia dan kebudayaan negeri selangor

ok. dah.. dah settle dah. alhamdulillah... finally, the letter of happiness dh smpai. actually mase entry ni di post, letter ni dh received lame dh. ade la 4-5hari. but i dont want to say a thing. not until dh bayar payment to confirm on the booking. so, siang tadi im sooooo happy sbb akhirnye selesai buat pembayaran. xpasal2 hari ni dpt cross 2things from my checklist.

to me, venue is the most essential for you to start ur preps. cite la pelamin wane ape, panel brape skali pun. kalo venue xde xbest la kan. skrg i can imagine the whole thing. table set up, decorations, entrance. bace2 blk previous entry, mak aihh.. susah nye nk dpt kn dewan. tp tu la, kite kne usaha smpai berjaya. skrg, date dah confirm, venue pun dh onfirm. kalo ikut entry ni [link] , sumenye dh di plan accordingly. sib baik ade bridal carnival. bole la selesaikan mane yg patut mase tu pada harga promosi. weee...

 source : FB

so, ni la hall die. to renee.. ni la die hall i. Insyallah nk decorate2 skit menggunakan budget yg skit n yet make it super cantik. bole ke? sure bole punye, advisor i kan byk.. uols sume yg bace ni sume nye advisori. thanks mucho!

kutipan pertama

kerja kutip mengutip telah pun bermula. n my first kutipan is paper lanterns yg to me sgt chumell.. (remember me saying that for my wedding ni xpasal2 taste berubah menjadi geli gurlish?) nway, i just got back from OU. tah knp mood azam hari ni, angin xde, ribut xde, taufan dan tau fu fa xde, die ajak aku shopping. sudah masyuk kah? xmo tanye byk, seriously im not those type yg bother duit my partner. kalo btol rezeki lebih, alhamdulillah. cume satu peringatan adinda (chewah) berjimat cermat la. jgn boros. kalo poket u grand, kawin kite pun grand. 

TOPIC!!!!

so, selepas pencarian bag n kasut sudah selesai (seperti yg dijanji kan) kami pun teruskan perjalanan. about last year semase Y.E.S, kitorg ade nmpk this one cool paper lantern yg comel dan berwarna warni. comel... (berape kali nk ckp comel ni) actually, since i first saw it mmg dh terpesona dan tergoda dgn kecomelannya (tgk, comel lg) time tu ade rase nk beli but since xdecide so much about the theme n color lg so impian tu terbantut. was thinking, bende mcm ni jual kat Cotton On? hurm.. xbyk la tu stock die. but guess what, td gi Cottton On lg, lantern tu masih ade. woot2!!! mmg harus la aku beli. memule rase mcm nk borong sume tp.. saye perlu discuss dgn tukang design saye nnt ttg penggunaan nya. ni pun main beli je, nk buat utk ape pun xtau lg.

price for 10pcs adalah RM59. i bought two designs which consist of 2boxes. so RM59 for each box. tp yg bestnye, Cotton On tgh ade offer skrg. so when u buy more than 1 items, u'll get the 2nd item with 50% off. jd utk 20bijik paper lantern yg comel, cume RM80 je. (harap penggunaan 'je' tu btol since the size is quite small) 

jd, paper lantern itu berupa begini,

tadaaaa...

actually, there are about 2more designs. tp 2 ni yg paling menepati warna tema saya. so, wht do u think? i think its great. skrg tgh pk mane nk letak bende ni. adakah boleh dibuat begini,

atau begini,

atau begini,

owh, nway.. paper lantern ni come with fairy light jgak tau. kalo dh pasang sgt dramatic mcm ni,

weee..

so, to anyone yg interested, sila la dpt kan nya kt Cotton On. bole brush up skit skill diy kite. cume xsure je if its available at all Cotton On outlet or cume kt OU je. Arios!

reception on friday nite. ok ke?

aiyark.. kalo pk pasal preps rase mcm lajunye mase berlalu. tp kalo pk psl nk cuti cz tiap2 pagi bgn gi kje asik terfikir, alamak, bile nk hari ahad ni, lambat plak hari tu rasenye berlalu. hurm.. ape pun, yg penting perlu didahulukan. on previous post i did mentioned psl halls kan. hurm.. skrg baru ku sedar, its not a small matter tau. dalam ati ni asik ckp sendiri je "kalo kau xdpt hall within this month, confirm kau kawin dpn rumah je". unless terterime surat wasiat daripada seorg org kaya yg purposely pick random ppl to accept his will which even in my wildest dream pun susah nk jadi, bole la kite petik je mane2 hotel n hall kan. tp for skrg ni, no money no talk.

on my wedding day aka my special day, mmg rase mcm sume pun nk gune duit sendiri. dulu time blom kje ade gak rase cam nk buat surat mintak sponsorship dgn mak, abah, su.. tp skrg dh tuka plak. bkn sbb malu tp sbb xtau nape rase lagi puas kalo sume pun dihandle sendiri. but of cz, mak abah nk gak contribute. n harus diingatkan yg aku ni still ade mak bapak lagi. alhamdullillah.. nak2 plak mak abah ku mmg cool n supportive. 

so, ckp psl dewan, mmg skrg ni dewan mbsa je yg available on 23rd december n according to my dad, date tu mmg tgh hold hanye utk saye buat sementare waktu ni. *haih.. nasib abah ade cable mbsa* but to hold lame2, tu lemak sgt name nye. cable xcable. so, saye asik di push oleh abah utk decide. tidakkk!! susah kot. byk bende nk kne consider. kate xnk buat majlis mlm. tp mak kate xpe, ari sabtu kite bole buat small kenduri kt rumah sbg tanda kesyukuran. hurm.. still xpuas ati. celaru sesgt2 ni.

the pros to hold reception on hari jumaat malam:

1. since nikah dh buat siang tu, so no need la nk buat mlm berinai cz majlis sanding pun dh dilangsung kan terus.

2. in terms of guest, memandangkan hari cuti sekolah, mungkin longgar for my cuzens especially side my mom cz diorg xyah tggu anak2 diorg blk skola. kalo bab kje plak, most aunties n uncles on mak's side mcm flexible. (tp xla smpai nk buat ari rabu tu pun kire flexible) furthermore, im sure they will attend my nikah session so instead of blk rumah n then the next day dtg blk, might as well stay terus.

3. side abah plak, hurm.. some of them bole but some of them mayb kne consider. tgk pade institusi kekeluargaan yg agak erat, mungkin it wont b too berat. in fact wan is the only org tua left in the family. i mean byk anak2 sedare yg dh berumur2 tu anggap die mcm mak sendiri cz their mom (or wan's sibling) dh ramai yg passed away.

4. its cuti skola n ujung thn what.. abis kan la annual leave tu terus dh alang2 tu. hehehe..

the cons to hold reception on hari jumaat malam:

1. owh, how i dont like it to be on waktu mlm. time yg tide. kalo yg mane dtg jauh tu, pkul bape plak diorg nk smpai. do i have to wait for them. pkul bape plak nnt nk abis? hurm.. tp, since its actually started dari pagi mayb some close friends n families will definitely stay. so, instead of having after party, kite buat ala-ala pre party dulu. huhu..

2. ade ke org yg interested nk dtg? based on my experience kje kt convention centre, those wedding yg buat friday nite seems like having no problem. same je tgk kalo buat hari2 biase tu pun. tp tu laa.. mlm beb, nnt event tu msti kejap je. i mean, expecting guests to settle by 8.30pm (kalau settle 8.30pm. kalo 9pm xsettle2? dh gamble..) the bride n groom to arrive on 8.45pm. mkn start 9pm. 9.30pm renjis. 10pm sesi bergambar + kalo yg nk mkn lg mkn. 11pm blk.. hurm.. tu je ke??

3. kalo guest i degil mcmane? sesat ke.. nnt smpai pkul 9.30pm plak mcmane? sobs..

so, disini, kecenderungan nye masih belum dpt dilihat. need some help, fast.. do drop something in my comment. pls pls.. pretty pls.. 

Pencarian yang mendebarkan!

one word, GILE! i never tot that mencari dewan yg berpatutan utk tarikh hampir hujung tahun ini even dlm minggu pertame tahun ini bole menjadi tersangat la susah! oh boy! oh boy! as u can see on their website, dewan bankuet MBSA dh full for the entire weekends of 2011. so do laman budaya (i just found out that the rental cume RM850 + RM100 deposit!) murah kan? patut fully book! unlike putrajaya n damansara/tmn tun area, kt shah alam ni xde dwn komuniti yg bole cater wedding. hurm.. correction, ade but no aircond n berlantaikan court badminton. actually lantai ape pun xkisah la. tp air cond! air cond! stakat kipas dinding lebih rela kipas canopy tu. but tu la, kat shah alam mmg xde dewan cantu. for other halls, sediakan rm10k keatas. hurm.. saye ni bkn org ade2 so to spend rm10k> itu dikire merelakan diri mkn pasir goreng berlauk ranting rebus semate2.

well, sebenarnye ade lagi beberape option yg belum diketahui status nye. 

1. lakukan saje di dewan bankuet mbsa pade 23hb december yg bersamaan jugak dgn menjalankan majlis dlm satu hari sahaja (which is on friday : nikah - am / sanding - mlm) 

2. tggu dewan raja muda musa @ kompleks belia dan kebudayaan s'gor sec 7 bukak tender utk booking hall. (rate : RM6+++) for 1800pax which sgt besar ok. kite target dlm 500-700pax je so mstila akan nmpk kosong je hall tu nnt =( 

3. waiting for a good friend of mine utk check kan dwn guthrie. i pun xpnah tau hall tu so i dont know much. mmbe tu kire mcm part of the resident kt bkt jelutong so harap she can find out. try call based on number get from the internet bt xdpt. 

4. waiting for the answer frm cuzen about kelab shah alam. hope he can get me a good price.

walaupun the date sounds like its still so far away, tp kes2 mcm ni meribut dan melintang pukang kan keadaan. everytime try to call the hall walaupun cume dgr tone ringing tu  punhati dh rase sgt berdebar2. nway, semoga berjaya di cubaan seterusnye. majulah dewan utk semua!

save the date!

yay!! rasenye dh official la ni. bole announce dgn bangga dh.. so, dgn dimulakan dgn lafaz bismillahirahmanirrahin, ingin saye umum kan disini, date officialnya saye, norzafira bakal menjadi isteri mohd noor azam yang sah adalah pada 23 Disember 2011 (insyaallah) yay!! yay!! yay!!

alhamdulillah, mak n abah dh tau. diorg ok je. last thursday kt rmh azam pun dh bgtau jgak dkt family die. n today, since dh dkt rmh wan (my granny) skali la bgtau wan n my aunties. mcm yg dkt previous entry tu, i did mentioned yg once dh official je i will post out the list of what to do before the wedding day kn, so here we go!!

actually, list ni dh dibuat quiet months ago. i did it with su n mase buat tu actually byk dh yg termissed. ni pun i edit blk according to time skrg ni. lps ni dh xbole main2 dh. kne follow exactly. xbole la nk miss2 lg. kang lari kang baru tau. but anything yg dpt disiapkan early tu kire bgs la. so to any of u readers (if any) yg ade rase mcm xkne dgn my list ni tolong la tegur kan. again, sharing is caring kn.

n owh, lepas ni, selain kne mendisplin kn diri prepare all these things, dh kne jgak masuk contest2 yg bole memenangkan kite dgn ape2 yg bergune for wedding nnt. owh, alangkah senang nye hati kalo dpt di cut kan budget. kalo ade yg nk sponsor pun bagus (chewah)

so, save the date for me ya!

23rd December 2011

1more year to go

ever since last sunday, i've been waiting and talking about this date (today) n azam, is my one n only countdown victim. i always say things like "kalo thn ni 2011, lagi bape hari je kite kawin" n smlm i said "kalo thn ni 2011, esok kite kawin" n this morning i called him n said "kalo thn ni 2011, hari ni kite kawin" mungkin dlm benak fikiran die terfikir, "ohh, dh jam tunang aku ni". sendiri pk pun mmg sendiri rase jam. but can u believe it? i cant. after this very day, no more kire pakai sukat tahun. there'll b only bulan n minggu n hari. gosh..

frankly to me, rase mcm sgt dh dekat. perasaan? OMG! bile dh smpai mcm ni baru la tetibe rase cm. dh2. stop. clock pls stop ticking. im not ready. selame ni google2, usha2 je.. konon saje cari inspiration. but since hanye tinggal satu tahun saje lg, google, google jgak. bende msti kne mau decide. jeng3.. smlm for the very first time, i jz got an email from The White Room Kuala Lumpur. saje ai gatal mintak quotation. pretty impress with their artworks. meletups2 tau.. n bile dh dpt, dgn segera ai call azam. tu namenye mintak consultation dari die dulu. well, mau nye idok? RM4400 untuk nikah + reception. gosh.. actually bole je kalo nk. tp, since kite xberak kuar duit (maaf bahase sedikit kasar) harus la dipertimbangkan baik buruknye. perlu ke? cantik sgt ke? ini yg terpaling murah ke? hurm.. jgn gelojoh. cube carik offer lain lagi kut2 ade yg lagi better.. so, harap bersabar.

n since skrg pun dh xberape lame je lg, rasenye the do's n dont's list dh bole la dipublish secare rasminye. walaupun belum buat lg, kesedaran utk mengadakannye dh ada. ok la tu. blk kje kang buat. jd, xsalah kirenye kalo kite dh boleh mule mengumpul2 dulu ape yg bole dikumpul, xgitu? so, mcm ni.. me n azam decided utk ade kn brg2 hantaran kami semacam waktu kitorg tunang2 dulu. mase tu kitorg beli hantaran sendiri utk diri sendiri. msti ramai yg mcm pelik. but its fun, really. pedulik la org nk kate budget ke ape ke but yes, mmg budget pun. segan la kalo nk mintak itu ini dgn si dia. kite pun, taste mesti la xmau kalah belake. kalo diserahkan bulat2 dkt si dia which dgn automatik die akan serahkan kepada mak dan kakak2 nye, ouh, xsanggup ambik risiko. takut ade brg yg xberkenan, xsedap la kalo ckp2 blkg. jd sudahnye, beli je sendiri2. abis cite.

jd kisahnye, saye dh terbekenan dgn satu jename ni. kononnye, kawin nnt nk serba serbi la pakai jename ni. alaa.. skali skala mak jd brand concious ape salah nye. motive jename ni dipilih pun sbb design nye yg cantik n funky (cz ai kn mude lg) n gile2 cam i jgak. kalo i ckp, kelas gitu. mak suke! hehe.. so, jename yg disebut2 tu senanye adalah...

fyi, saye suke, suke, sukeee sgt design die. takat nk beli buat basahan mungkin belum stable utk memuaskan desire itu. so, for once in a while n rasenye time cenggini la paling sesuai utk beli satu dan mulakan koleksi. mane la tau, berkat beli satu lenkali bole la plak beli sedozen dua (amin). of all the designs, my favorite is MBMJ Mirror Heart Collection. xtau la how latest design ni but seriously im in love with it. hurm.. kalo ckp azam ni sure die pertikaikan ke glossy-an nye. but wht to do. my taste wht. glossy2 but nice. pe salah nye. haaa.. tu kn, lebih baik kite beli utk diri sendiri cz sendiri beli, sendiri dpt, sendiri pakai.

so, setelah di browse2, terberkenan sgt dgn tote ni. (haaa.. kilat2 kn. name pun mirror heart collection) in terms of sizing mmg la mcm besau skit, but biau la. hehehe.. kn saye dh ckp. saye suke sgt! nk2 pulak last weekend me n azam jln2 kt the curve. kitorg singgah counter perfume n try hampir 20-30 jenis haruman yang ade. n some of my favorites are escada 'absolutely me' n marc jacobs 'daisy.'. tehehe.. ngam3.. tp akhirnye, kite tgk je la nnt. marc jacobs ke mak jenabs ke.. we shall see!!

Hippy Birthday!!!

welcome

23rd December!

wee.. dh 23rd december pun. hari ni is actually besday 2special person in both me n azam's life. which merupakan one of the reason why we select this date for our wedding (genap la setahun je lagi kut. yikes!)

First of all, happy birthday TUAN HAJI BAHAROM!! (abah azam) yg keberape, later saye investigate. celebration last yr pun still fresh dlm ingatan. hopefully, lebih murah (kelip2 mate) la rezeki dia and mudah-mudahan dipermudahkan segala urusan didunia dan diakhirat. didoakan jgak, kesihatan n kesejahteraan sepanjang tahun. thn dpn saye renew wishes lain tp content tetap pasti akan same. (wishes utk org berumur mmg kne skema cenggini)

Second of all, happy birthday MUHAMMAD ARIFF ALIAS!! (my youngest brother) yg keberape, yg ke 13. ek eley, baru 13thn? bercinte cam org 23thn. haish.. budak2 jaman skrg ni. xtau la akak nak ckp mcmane lg. nway, since umo dh byk ni wahai encik adik, belaja la bersungguh2. jgn terlalu leka, bersuka ria. sebagai pesanan kakak kpd seorg adik tersayang (walaupun xmungkin die bace coretan ni. (sib baik xbace. kalo bace buat malu) , sentiasa lah tenang dlm idop. dont bother people too much. you may dont have what other people have. but so do the other way round. people might not have what u r having now. mak, abah, kaklin, gojes sister like me, abg, mimi, ur abgs2 ipar, n cuzies, we will always b there for u.

*this is during azam's parent's anniversary. 10.10.10. so, ini ptg potong cake lg! yay to uncle!!*

*ariff, mimi n i mase kt pullman. owh, adik ku sudah besar. look at him. almost a size as me. abis la aku shrink lg dgn adik no. 2 plak lepas ni*

movie : hantu kak limah balik rumah

and dengan bangganye saye nk bgtau yg saye dh tgk cerita ni!! (fuish, gile bangga) nehehe.. actually dh bape mggu dh tgk cite ni. update je br skrg. before cite ni release mmg dh target dh nk tgk. i admit, i mmg kaki wayang yg pasti akan mengutuk filem2 melayu. bukan kate xsupport cume kureng puas ati bile tgk. mayb sbb dh biase tgk cite2 hollywood smpai kalo ade kekurangan kt filem negare sendiri agak susah skit nk terime akal. plus, kt sini ade limitation. kalo pompuan pakai sexy2 tu rase cm nk bg telekung je. kalo mak salleh tu ai ok plak. hurm.. mind setting itu sume.

ok, back to the topic (asal nk cite msti ade terkeluar topik dulu) about a week after this movie premier, i straight away ajak azam gi tgk cite ni. mujur beli ticket online je. bkn sbb ramai n malas nk queue eh.. sbb mmg full house pun tgk cite tu. atas tindakan cepat dan pantas, kitorg dpt dok kt our favorite seats. ade si azam tanye, knp plak nk tgk cite ni. jwpan mudah, sbb dh bace byk good review psl cite ni. nway, dari awal pun mmg i found the title interesting. so, tgk la kami..

overall, i bg 4.5/5 for this movie. jln cerite yg agak simple. especially kalo sape yg tgk cite zombie kg pisang tu die tau la. i mmg dh tgk cite zombie but xminat pun cite tu. yeah, its a little crap. but at least i know how does it start. n despite jln cerite yg.. well, ok. the characters in this movie mmg interesting. especially usop. tehehe.. suke gile dgn die. the way the director develop each scene pun sgt menarik. (saye suke part diorg lari kelam kabut. n of cz usop yg 'lari' kelam kabut) mule2 tu mmg agak seram jgak. pandai die buat hantu kak limah tu. my first impression mmg mendebarkan. the moment hussein nk tgk bwh katil pun saye dh pandai tutup2 mate. so, ok la tu kn.

the turn off, cume part hantu kopek (?) sape yg dh tgk, die tahu maksud saye. lepas tu ade gak la scene2 xlogik mcm hantu kak limah tu bole plak bantai tdo sebelah hussein. tp sebenarnye kn die bukan hantu. so, die senanye dari mane? (??) pstu bole naik2 bumbung. yg tu i was like.. erkkk? tp sume tu dh expect dh. dh prepare mind, body n soul utk bnde2 mengarut mcm tu. at least die xla menunjukkan org tu bodo mcm sesetgh cite. die bodo but out of ur mind punye bodo. ok la tu. at least i enjoy.

so, to whom  it may concern, gi la tgk cite ni kalo masih berkesempatan. no matter how hard u actually want to control urself from not to laugh, msti gak tergelak2 skit. n kalo dh xsempat nk tgk tu, tggu je la raye nnt. xrugi nengok.

usop, hussein n abu hurairah (yupp, name die dlm cite ni mmg abu hurairah)

usop on his birthday. time ni before die paralyzed n die pun cite kt kawan die cane die bole jd cenggitu ghupe. (die cite pun lps membe2 die ckp, ce cite ce cite.. tehehe.. hilarious kut part tu)

movie : harry potter

ok, mayb its a little late to blog about this since actually dah lame dah tgk. just perasan yg normally i'll straight away blog about the movie i just watched but not this one. seriously this is azam's request. so tgk je la. not a big fan, really. tried to but nahh.. 

officially this is the first HP i watched in a cinema. kalo xbefore this i just watched it kt hbo je. walaupun tgk kt hbo still xpnah habis. i can only stay in front of the screen the longest mayb 15mins. lepas tu mesti tuka channel lain or pgi tempat lain terus. n since i live with no choice, kne tgk jgak hp7 hari tu. tgk je la sampai abis. well, not as bad as i tot but xla awesome sgt mcm yg stgh org ckp. yeah, i understand the whole story but it almost bore me to death. 1st hour tu ok. acceptable. all thanks to ron weasley yg klaka. tp lepas tu i pun mule gelisah. knp la cerite ni lame sgt. mujur bekalan makanan agak byk. yg pade mulenye dianggap tamak akhirnya habis menjadi peneman.

star rating

2/5

*huh.. huduh btol menatang ni. nasib baik dh mati. mmg xmo la tgk die lg*

Love Story

23.11.2004 - 23.11.frvr

Officially, we have been together for 6 years now (seronoknye tgk daisypath!). i mentioned it to azam but he doesnt seems excited at first.  i truly understand that. we've been through alot of ups n downs, ons n offs smpai xperasan when were we actually start to seriously want to take it this far. but still i remind him, this is the date we first want to start having relationship with each other. this is the date where he first fetched me from home with his silver Perdana (which skrg dh jd hitam). this is the date kitorg first time declare to be each other's boyfriend girlfriend n this is the date where everything about fira n azam start n begin. it all happened so fast i even can still remember every single things like it all just happened yesterday.

All thanks to mamak, my ex a.k.a his friend a.k.a his neighbor, the one that responsible to matchmade us. huhuhu.. i remember it was on bulan puasa n suddenly i kept receiving this funny call from a public phone. sikit2 putus. sikit2 putus. until my ex call n said, once i answer the next call, no matter what happen, dont hang up. so, i did. smpai la dgr suara azam. seriously its beyond my crazy mind that he would want to call me. i sgt annoyed dgn die dulu ok. dtg lepak maisha naik kembara pasang lagu kuat2, baju fubu bagak besar, rambut berkarat, rantai berpendant mcm fifty cent. owh.. puhlease.. i plak time tu lepak dgn boyfie  yg  bijak pandai. tp xla sepandai nk segak bergaya (my ass) mcm die (mase tu). skuter v100 je. with his friends n mine yg sgt low profile. 

So, we chitty chatty la spjg mlm tu. kn bln puasa, so smbil borak ade la dgr dentuman mercun roket, thunder clap, mercun padi, mercun ketupat, bola dan sbgnya. yupp, the oldies were true. xknal maka xcinta. but i didnt say that i fall in love with him sejurus terime phone call pertama. agree to go out with him pun cz he drive a car.. hehe.. mase tu agak jahil. al maklum baru habis pmr. ade boyfie yg bwk kereta consider as a big hit. hahaha.. so, we went out. he took me to a place yg sgt privacy until he make me fall in love with him. "janji jgn tggl kan kite", owh.. numb kejap dgr die ckp mcm tu. seriously, belum pernah org bercinta monyet selame ni yg pernah ckp mcm tu. so, itu la cerita how we start. alhamdulillah it last until now. despite all that bad things happened to us. all the shout n yell, we are both grateful sbb we manage to pull out all the egos n smpai la sekarang.. wee..

*us back then. mcm2 pesen*

*******************************

smlm, tanpa dirancang we went out for dinner. seriuos xplan. i just ckp yg i want to make him cupcakes. tp die plak yg ajak kite gi dinner. hihihi.. ade gak sense of romance kt bakal laki aku ni. yay!! so, sementare die yg ajak, dgn harus dan pantas la aku on n set. google kt internet kt mane tpt mkn best. cz the msg yg die nk we both mkn kt tpt yg fine, cosy n fancy restaurant tu di transmit ke otak dgn sgt jelas. mcm2 restaurant jumpe (kt internet la) tp xtau nk gi mane.

prefer somewhere near cz the time constraint. blk rmh, kaklin suggest to try concorde. bkn xnk. almost there pun but tetibe azam ingat membe die pnah cite yg situ mkn tpt kotor. ouch.. so die pun kate, "ari tu tringin nk gi chilis. kite gi chilis je la." hurm.. nk xnk tepakse akur. the nearest, empire gallery subang. tapiii... smpai kt sane, since saye xnk senanye gi mkn kt chilis sbb hey! ini anniversary la! saye pun dgn sengaje terstop kt dpn ole2 bali. hihihi.. nk mkn sini? i asked him. he said "u nk mkn ape sini?" well, tgk je la kt menu kn? so, we went in n chill ourselves at one of the table. yay..

first impression mkn kt situ sgt teruja. cantik. cosy.. romantic? very.. ade candle light lg. perfect la kn utk kami yg sedang melamun cinta spjg 6thn ni. borak2, i told him, "patut i nk melamar u mlm ni. tp xde cincin. all at sudden sgt" hehehe.. die pun cm phm "cheh, so nk i lamar u mlm ni la ni" hehehe.. ape la aku ni. but we finally reach the verdict. as my plan nk our wedding to be on next yrs 23rd of december. die pun agree. rupe2nye date tu mencomplete kn sequence cinta kami. well, first met on 23rd november. married on 23rd december. engaged on 23rd january. three 23rd in a row. cool la kn? nnt kumpul2 lg kut2 ade yg lain. hehehe.. so, jz to share with readers (if any) below are the pictures of us last nite. sgt happy kayh..

"And when the rain begins to fall,
You ride my rainbow in the sky,
And I will catch you if you fall,
You never have to ask me why,
And when the rain begins to fall,
I'll be the sunshine in your life,
You know that we could have it all,
And everything will be alright.."

-Papa bear, When the Rain Begins To Fall-

movie : skyline

is the movie we watched on last friday. kinda have some funny feelings about this movie. nk kate best, xbest. nk kate xbest, best. so better gi tgk sendiri. rasenye xrugi pun sbb somehow cerite ni pretty interesting jgak. to tell the truth, senanye xnk pun tgk cite ni. memule ajak azam gi tgk wayang cz nk tgk cite megamind. dh smpai sane azam semcm ade second tot nk layan cite katun tu. n i was like.. hishh!! tgk je la. but xpe, see if he have any other better choice. so, die kate nk tgk cite let me in plak. ok cite tu pun mcm menarik. so we queued. megamind, tggl 2rows yg plg dpn n so do let me in. last, cite skyline je yg ade seat menarik.

show at 9.30pm n time mase tu baru kul 8.15pm. still ade mase utk jln2 n mkn. we didnt window shop alot cz kami perasan all the discount symbols but unfortunately financial tidak mengizinkan. baru je spent sebyk2nye kt pangkor so, we have to slow down a lil bit. jln pandang dpn je.. hehehe..

smpai la kaki ni membawa kami ke otak2 place. well, restaurant ni mengimbau kite kezaman dulu. im sure u all know. menu die yg mcm buku latihan sekolah ni pun best. cm nk tulis name sendiri je kt bwh tu. so, azam pun had his chicken rice while i have my chicken chop. i have the pictures but xmo la letak. cz xde la mcm sgt sedap. kalo suruh order lg sekali pun saye xnk. hehehe..

so, back to the movie. akibat tamak, bli jgak kami pop corn walaupun dh full. n masuk la kami ke hall3 utk cerite skyline yg diragui ke-best-an jln cerita nye (according to org box office mase kitorg bli tix tu, die kate cite ni xoriginal. kalo before this dh pnah tgk cite2 camni mmg xbest la. ouch..) n start2, tgk pelakon je cm dh tefikir, alamak, cm xbest je. sape belakon ni. xknal pun. ade pun cume knal nigger yg belakon cite scrub tu je. so, blk pun i google hero die.

so, ini la hero nye. eric balfour name di beri. nk kate handsome xhandsome. nk kate xhandsome mmg xhandsome pun. muke kurus. idong mancung killer (amboi, aku ngutuk..) features bad boy tu ade tp dlm cite ni die jd baik. hero la kate kan.

kalo suruh rate smpai 10, i bg 6.5/10. ok la tu kn. xboring jgak citenye. agak mudah difahami but the way they present it mcm skit kodi. yg psti, saya akan pgi jgak tgk cite social network, narnia n the tourist next month. =)

***********************

synopsis skyline (petikan dari gsc.com.my) : In "Skyline", we follow events after a night of partying when a group of friends are distracted by beams of light awakening everyone in Los Angeles and attracting every person like a moth to a flame. As the night progresses, they soon discover that once addicted to the light, one would vanish into thin air, and that extraterrestrial forces are starting to swallow the entire human race.

bunnies, engagement, takers, new shoes, bridal carnival, work n more.. (part 2)

Takers

n finally we watched takers! (actually only im the one who watched it cause azam end up tdo dlm cinema cz mayb kekenyangan kenny rogers) one word for takers : sa-tis-fac-tion! hish.. bebaloi2 drooling tgk billboard kt nkve everytime nk pgi o.u or heading to damansara. the movie was awesome. the actors were to die for n believe it or not, this is the kind of movie that can prove u why most women can always get crazy over bad boys. in this movie, i cant even choose nk sokong sape. should i be on the cops' side cause of cz they are cops n jay hernandez or should i be on the criminals' side cause T.I n Hayden Christensen are soo jatuh mati gorgeous. azam is soo must buy the dvd.

to me this movie sgt easy n simple to understand. its just balance. not too many action yet too many drama. have been reading few comments about this movie. but its not as bad as one of the comment. katenye, chris brown was kinda stiff in this movie. T.I doesnt showed up good. n i was like.. in which scene? everything looks fine to me. well, yeah T.I accent sounds abit weird. havent heard any american sounds like that before. mayb because i am not american or simply because he's a rapper eyh.. he can sound like that if he want. in fact, its not soo weird. never heard, yes. never heard or wtv, its still sounds good to me. its unique in its own way. interesting to listen to n at least its different. well, he is the antagonist character in this movie. so why cant he sound like.. well, bad. another thing that i like so much about this movie is that, women are not the major factor. ok, there's one scene where Paul Walker dip into the pool, naked n with 2girls, flirting. but thats it. just to spice up alil bit mayb. as a woman 18 y/o n above myself, im cool. as u can see in the poster, its dominated by male. isnt there any female characters in this movie? actually, it is.. Zoe Zaldana play as lily. hurm.. she's too easy. i can be lily. others, are just to support n compliment the characters. its like, in this movie it tells that no matter how bad u are to others, u will still have at least one very precious love ones that u will always take good care of. at least, one.

*while in the club poster*

*T.I as Ghost. a convict who wanted to pay revenge the first day he was released from the prison. as part of the takers, he feel betrayed n isolated by his group. kesian..*

*Hayden Christensen as A.J. a man in a hat with soft spoken charm n a quiet pianist. died in a shooting scene with russian n left untold. what tha...??*

*Jay Hernandez as Eddie. the family guy cop who died in a scene. caught on camera for purposely released one of the criminals free n took the money for his family*

New shoes

mean while, me n azam have a round trip of O.U as always. n since azam suddenly wanted to wear nabil (his nephew) 's bulky n hideous shoes, so i figure he must get a new pair immediately so that he dont have to wear that child-like shoes anymore (lucky he notice it too). so, we took a walk around O.U to find him a nice new pair of shoes. we entered Pull n Bear, Zara, Parkson n nothing seems nice n making sense (i dont believe in only expensive shoes look nice) so, i took him to Pedro. I knew there must be something nice n affordable there. something more like, azam. n bam! there are alot of shoes, azam's style. so, he end up buying this pair of strap shoes that only cost him for RM249. well, for man's shoes, thats cheap unless u go buy at Xes Studio =P

n of cz u wont see me with happy face if i dont get a pair of mine too. azam knew it very well, so.. yay! i too got myself n nice pair of wedges from vincci. weee...

*azam's hideous shoes*

 

*my new sexy wedges =)*

To be continue..

Finally, movie! : Life as We Know It

recommendation : very must watch!

This will always be me n azam favorite movie of all time. ade funny, sad, romantic.. jeez... its just a perfect movie for every couple. i almost cry when messer wanted to leave holly n sophie for phoenix which it has always be his dream to direct his own sports game. n its also cracked me up when holly got some sophie's shit on her face. yes, me n azam enjoy it mucho2. *tgk sophie tringat mimi* its a must watch n we'll definitely buy it dvd n rewatch it over n over again. 10 star wa ckp same lu..

JOSH DUHAMEL I LOVE YOU!!!

*especially when u had to hold your tears, damn u're one gorgeous creature*

as we have to watch it after work (which is actually at 10 PM) so, me n azam have to rush to O.U as soon as i punch out. arrived around 10.40pm n the show start at 11.20pm. buy our snack thats for sure n sempat jgak main daytona satu game. after all, we had a superb time watching this movie. super awesome!! n two thumbs up!!

*while ade mase kite snippy snappy*
