First Wedding in 2011

I pi set rambut last Sat.  For those tak paham, set is blow aka setting of my hair. Ni, first time aku pi set rambut for wedding selain my own wedding. All this while, attended wedding anak pak menteri, anak datuk bandar, vvip Agung, vvip sultan pun i never did my hair.  Tapi kali ni different sket sebabnya aku attend wedding artis.  Karang semua stok rambut macam sarang tebuan, aku sorang rambut macam jalan baru kena tar macam mana beb.  Sib baik i have long range of baju tradisional nak pakai.  Tapi yang slacknya, boyfriend nak pakai baju melayu cotton hampeh, so sebab nak matchkan color, terpaksa laa sarungkan baju kurung moden simple dengan butiran bintang yang ada.  Ingatkan nak melaram baju lace tampalan bunga, apa nak buat.

Wedding yang aku attend last Sat was reception of Rebecca Nur Islam and Nor Azam kat Flamingo Hotel.
Since takde budget nak cari makeup artist terpaksa laa i makeup sendiri. Rasanya dah cukup cun la..sekali duduk kat meja baru laa aku perasan, aiseyman lupa lak nak pakai bulu mata palsu @ mascara. Jangankan itu, eyeshadow pun lupa. Jadinya bawah shadow je laa aku ni. Punya laa ramai pakai blink blink, naik berpinar mata.  Sib baik rantai berlian yg lebar 1cm aku dapat mencover laa jugak as compared yg lelain pakai selebar 1inci. Hai apa nak buat itu je mampu.  Terus aku sound boyfriend tahun ni nak barang kemas for anniversary last2 darling cakap diaorg tu pakai yg palsu bukan yg ori.  Betul gak kalau semua pakai berlian yg lebar 1-2inci, mau 5angka kaw kaw sedangkan cincin secoet aku pun dah 4 angka. Ker sandiwara laki aku nak escape dari belikan aku berlian..emmm..kena investigate further nih!

The pelamin was beautifully designed.  Newlyweds wear red traditional songket but Rebecca added a long overcoat lace kebaya. The veil was pretty long naik ngeri aku tengok sebabnya kat pintu masuk dah hampir tertarik. I love the kompang performance sebab semuanya kids yg perform, silat pun by the kids.  Linda Onn and the other guy rasanya Aidil kot tak sure nama dia jadik MC.  Farhan and Bob perform some singles.  Lain2 artis yang aku nampak just Datuk Yusof Haslam, Natasha Hudson..agaknya i arrived late so tak nampak laa artis2 yg lain plus we're seated on Azam's side so taktau mana satu artis mana satu tak sebab semuanya pakai glamer habis macam nak pi annual dinner.  Yang pakai tudung pun siap ada 2-3 layer tak pun ada hairband lagi. Yang sanggul lintang, sanggul jatuh, sanggul tidor semua ada.

Next performance yang i like was the dance performance by budak2.  Comel!  I think fantastic penutup was the performance by Azam's son. Before the performance, dia ada bagi short speech yang ending dia "To mother, welcome to our family".  A sweet wish.  Yang best performance tu siap guna gitar kapok lagi played by kid as well! The song goes something like this
"..Hold your breath coz tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again, Don't make me change my mind orr I wont live to see another day
I swear it's true coz a girl like you is impossible to find
You're impossible to find"

When Azam brought Rebecca to our house during Qiqah last year, friends were asking sejak bila aku kawan dengan artis.  Actually masa tu i was quite blurred coz i dont have the slightest idea what they were talking about. Al maklum, aku jarang jarang sangat tengok drama Melayu so tak berapa nak kenal. Anyway for me Rebecca looks more pleasant outside rather than on screen.

Well Azam, Rebecca, Selamat Pengantin Baru.  May both of you have a blissful marriage ahead.

Oh ye dalam banyak2 aku nak komplen pasal Flamingo parking, ada ke parking card dia just accept $1 and $5 and coins..kami yg teroverloaded ni plak ada $50s je ada.  Dah laa parking $4, duit kecik yg paling ada $3! Hangin betul laa.  Sib baik ada hamba Allah mendonatekan $1.

Boy Meets Girl

I was often asked how my husband and I met.  So here goes the story.... Once a upon a time, infront of the Selangor Golf Club, Jalan Ampang at the T junction traffic light while waiting for the green light to give signal, a guy gave a flash glance at me along with a cheeky smile.  Yup, we're both in our cars while he's the driver, i'm the passenger at the other end.

The green light blinked, shift the gear into 2 and the engine vrooms away. We were side by side, glimpsing at each other.  Yup, still in the car.

Getting to Kg Pandan roundabout, he was about to split towards Sg Besi / Cheras while i'm heading into Kg Pandan. As we were about to pass his car, with great impetus his buddy put out his hand and right there and then we saw a card on his hand.  And within this split seconds, my friend Sharifah @ the driver managed to grabbed hold to the card and speed off.

I'm not sure what to do with the card, as odd as it sounds...that month alone i got many invites from guys.  Some i went out, some i turn down and some i didnt bother to return call / hello.  Should i call? Well Sya said call up!

Actually, i had just ended a relationship with a jerk. Call him moron, fool, dunce,dolt, idiot whatever that listed in the google search under that phrase can be credited to him.  So i was pretty sick of guy and i even vowed not to have a steady and loyal relationship anymore. 

I just decide to go dates, to have fun, ..u are not attached, you got your own world to think about and yet you still have fun with the opposite sex.  And yet of course, the minute you pledge to be this way, whateva that you're not looking for, comes knocking on your soul door...

Coffee Bean Ampang Point was our first point of contact.  There were 5 of us.  3 guys and 2 girls.  We chatted and we clicked as a group.  Hence we started going out places as a group.  These guys really know how to entertain us.  We had blasting activities with 'em.

Me and my hubby, we didnt head straight to become couple.  We've become good friends...yup almost 2 years.  We go out to clubs, concerts, movies, playing pools, bowlings, lepakking and many many more dates..We go outing a lot and heck we had barrel of fun. It was what i wanted, no string attached.



And after that 2 wonderful years as friends together, he finally ask the question. Huh macam nak kawin rite.  Well this is just a proposal to become a formal boyfriend and gilfriend..hehehehe. just like school time.  Boy it was hard to say yes, i was in Bangkok most of the time while he was in Port Dickson.

But fate will always be fate.  How we met, how we started. Was it coincidence?

Soon we became lovers.  We coupled for 2 years.  You know when you're in a relationship at a mature age, things are different. You don't become 'belangkas', you don't hold hands all the time, you don't make calls all the time.. Its all more realistic, sensible, calm and still it can be a lovey dovey relationship.  This is far the best relationship i had.  We hardly bergaduh!  I mean my 'boyfriend' is quite a patient man or perhaps he just mellows when it comes to me..

Our usual spots would be Bora Ombak (the old place, behind habib Ampang Point), Coffee Bean Mont Kiara, Dome's KLCC, Baja Cafe Taman Dagang (*sigh* closed down :-( ), The Hills Wangsa Maju (wonder if its still operates). We go clubbing at Planet Hollywood. Its pratically our hanging place every week. Ni pun dah closed huhuhu.. Such memories.. I'll cherish them forever.

I was at a complete shock when he asked me whether his mother can come by and meet my mum. Me: "For what?" "Well to become my bride of course". Shit, this is serious. I was flushing and sweating. Wanna know why? well when everytime a guy popped out the "Question", i will eventually leave him. Why? Entah ler..wedding freak? Dunno but this time i was ready and i'm so glad i got enough senses to say "Let me ask my mom first" hahhhahaa.. Sunggah unromanticnya kan.. but hey with the candles and wind blowing smoothly across our faces at that time, it was a blissful and romantic nite.



Funny how it started, we were on our separate ways.  We bumped on each other.  Then it was me and him.  Then we become one and now we became 4.  I'm glad and thankful for this years of delightful journey. We'll be celebrating our 5th anniversary in few days time.  Praying all the way that i'm able to share and experience my life with him for the next 70 years to come.  We'll be 105 by that time.
 
Yang, if you're happen to read this one day, I'm blogging this so that we always have this tucked away somewhere, to always remember how we began


Muackksss....
