mission imposibble: the perfect wedding shoes!



Arghh....i hate shoe shopping........ ku sedang mencari kasut untuk dibawa bersanding... heheh..awal sangat eh..takde...shoes are the bane of my existence because of my jantan feet! betul ni.. i have very kembang foot.. tak macam kaki perempuan langsung....so bila cari kasut...or sandals kena la cari yang kembang kat depan if not ill look like a drag queen! and i have never wear heels all my life... i even melanggar peraturan and pakai flat shoes to work! haha tapi ku suka kasut comel ...balerina shoes... slip ons.... tapi macamana ni? bersanding my frend kata
"D, takkan la tak pakai kasut tumit!"
"abis tu? ko tengokla kaki aku!"
"a ahla....buruk juga ko pakai sandal"
tak tau la i think ill go for the whole tradisional thing..pakai capal..konon2 gadis melayu terakhir gitu...boleh tak? takpun..the hell with everyone and ill go find some gold flat mary jane!hmmm kat kedai budak2 japan sytle to ada kot!

how many days?

Mengintai wedding favors orang

it's Saturday and i have to work this morning but then in the afternoon kawanku ajak pegi kenduri kawin! dua plak tu... so there i go dengan 3 orang kawanku... both kenduri sambut menantu, kat south ni sambut menantu pun vogue juga, tapi the similarities end there... satu berada satu bersederhana......pergi tak ada niat pun tengok pengantinnya...

"ala D, kita pegi cecah-cecah je, orang da jemput kan,"

so ..wat i told u allz earlier was correct ....after all the makan and the bersalaman kautan...tak tunggu pengantin pun, that ... yang kami belek (and kawanku sorang gila berebut asik mintak tukar, nak yang besarla, yang birula coklatla orenla) is the wedding favors! first house dapat kipas... corak batik...very nice.... (itu yang kawanku gila berebut tu) thats it la for common people not sedara... nampak macam sedara lain sikit la favornya..biasala tu...ku pun nanti buat begitu juga...kerepek sikit and a small cake... house no 2....makan sedap! ku tak ingat diet dah.. dua-dua rumah makan..isk..ill regret it later..dapat cupcake (yang kawanku sorang gila berebut ( dia dapat cupcake lawa ada icing on top orang lain tak dapat)

note to self: untuk kawanku sorang ni... masa kenduri ku kan sediakan beg paling besar untuk dia! pastu suruh dia beli favors sendiri yang dia suka then hanta resit mengelakkan dia bising tentanng my favors....muahaahaaa padan muka

anyway....so the result? dah sah dah... favors are very important!wayyy more important than the bride or groom...
anyway house no 2 terserempak dengan pengantin, alahai mudanya nampak the groom, macam budak sekolah 15 thn! tak sangka umor sama dengan abangku, ehem tapi my abang muka macam bapak orang...haha sesuaila mukaku macam makcik orang!hahahah iskkkk sedih......

Bidding haven

Im in lelong heaven! teeheehee.. i know im a bit a late jumping on the band wagon tapi isyh bila dah hooked on lelong.com.my alamak..... seronok nya....sah-sah hantaranku nanti semua ku beli di lelong... tengah bid on a handbag! ku memang pembudget dan tak la as fashion-conscious as other people..but i love good quality and a long lasting trend! and ada la bab-bab kite kedekut..tapi bila tengok ada bag MNG di lelong hatiku terpaut! agak-agak kena kutuk tak buying my hantaran on lelong? sapa kata hantaran kena all branded kan? ku suka hantaran cantik dipandang and barang tu ku guna kan di kemudian hari.... if i nak vincci shoes instead of bonia so what? im a vincci gal babe... if i nak jeans and a tshirt pun apa salahnya? dah hias dengan bunga takda org nampak pun....

Fashion mission

Hobi hari mingguku sekarang membelek fesyen pengantin terbaru! Isyh untuk ku yang berbadan terlebih ‘sedap’ ni amat menyukai fesyen klasik such as kebaya labuh..will make me look slimmer..or im contemplating busana muslim that is long jubah…tapi ada waist la..bukan shapeless… ala-ala western gown tu….but what colour? My other tu…nak blue…but….i have never looked good in blue…except dark blue….im thinking pink …my fav colour of course but abang ku kata he’ll drop dead on the spot if I force him to wear pink…I nak back down ke I choose another color? Red is nice..tapi actually I tengok if bertudung ill look like a big round tomato…if tak bertudung….takpe…its actually cantik merah….susah susah nanti I’ll wear black! Hahaaha pensan mak mentua I karang….. Haaa talking bout new fashion…ni apa pesen…(mak I la ni punya bahasa) sekarang ada emphasis on the bust? Mana mana magazine pengantin fashionnya all laces and ruching and gathering letak kat breast… isyh…malu la…tak tudng-friendly punya fashion…

Marriage is a gamble…

My mom said to me once. Marriage is a gamble….actually…dialognya begini…

“Mana nak tau orang tu ok ke tak mak?”

“Nasible… kawin ni macam berjudi juge gamaknya.”

In a sense it’s true… you never really know wether your investment.. whether your time, money or more importantly your heart will fail… look at the people around you.. how many divorces and heartbreak stories that we have heard in a year? maybe im cynical or jaded…but it seems the happily ever after that everyone wanted never really existed…your best bet is you’ll live happily for at least 20 years tops then either you lost your partner to another person or you lost them in death… which I think is the better but still! Touch wood…. Taknak!! even me and my abang is being realistic… he asked me when after years down the road and he’ll be a datuk..yes…. its his dream…. There will be other people trying to kacau the marriage..it’s fact of life he said… what will I as the wife do? Ku terdiam…because will I be the quiet wife who sign the consent paper to let him marry? …because he said…at that time it’s not about the money anymore…he will be able to provide for both… it will be the matter of the heart….actually pikir-pikir balik I don’t think so! I told him I can live with the sharing of the materials but I cant share the heart…then ku merajuk seminggu sebab timbulkan isu ni..hahah…..but itula actually wat I love bout him…we can talk about everything as two persons without any berlakon or menjaga hati….kekadang ku buat dia macam my gal pal pulak haahaha…..tak best pulak la membebel hari ni..but it’s a reality check I guess….

wedding cards yang buat ku drool.....

isyh..... orang ajak je kawin...first thing ku jenguk ialah website kad kahwin...bukan ape....dulu masa single nak jenguk website ni malu jadinye....konon-konon dah beralasan la sekarang...ala...macam nak beli majalah pengantin la.... baru sekarang berani menjenguk.....dah lepas tu mabuk beb.... banyak nya.....murah plak tu.....i mean cards not majalah! ku dah survey...beli online memang ada penjimatan....dan for my small town status ni....sesuai sangat....small town..pilihan nak choose kad kahwin cecanggih tak la banyak...so lau nak extra special....online cards are the perfect answer! dari yang gegiler exclusive ke yang beli by bulk.... peh... lepas tu dah sibuk tengok kad... jadi takut....bukan apa...bila nak pilih kad... kena la pikir tarikh....bila pikir tarikh..argghhh ku pening...ramai manusia diperlukan... untuk perbincangan...yela...dilema tau...cuti sekolah ke hari biasa? tarikh ada clash tak dengan sedara mara lain yang nak kawin? bulan? tahun? arghhh.......

first things first...

when your man proposed...tak kira la kan.... macamana cara pun.... mine? alahai...on the fon je.... tapi.....teringat ke'nervous'an dia tu.... tersengih juga ku dibuatnya.... nak ideas for proposing? berlambak-lambak....tapi apepun...keikhlasan hati yang penting kan? bukan sebab dipaksa....terpaksa.....dah tak tau nak buat apa dengan percintaan...yang penting bila kahwin...orang kata la bukan ku kata.....mesti ada impian...apa seterusnya lepas kahwin? bukan nya dah kawin..pangklepangkelepung kompang..dah abis.... adakah marriage tu akan jadikan kita lebih dewasa? menambah zuriat? menaik taraf hidup? isyh ku tiada jawapan kerana everyone has their own dreams and wants kan?

Bila agaknya hari ku akan tiba?

Askum..... hai...this is my second attempt at blogging! Can you believe it? Ku terhilang blog pertamaku dan missing forever in the world of cyberspace.... tapi maybe its wat you call takdir...providence....karma...ape ape tah la.... sebabnya....blog pertama ku semua tentang mengenang nasib dengan bf pertama.... so....blog ni tentang apa? maybe nak lebih informatif....maklumlah...dah matang sikit harapnya la kan..... blog ni tentang...jeng jeng jeng.... perkahwinan! marriage and weddings! ku sedang counting the days...actually maybe the month or year ...watever but.... cross your fingers people! itll happen for sure...tapi anyways...before IT happens...banyak perkara nak pikir beb! baik bersiap awal...from every angle....emotionally...financially....physically...ehem...yeah bebey! to quote from Mr Powers himself... ape...ingat tak penting ke? eheh...anyway... segala ilmu yang nak dikongsi disini adalah dari collection of thoughts and opinions and stories from friends, colleueges and strangers found when sitting at the bus stops to the salon...so in no way reflect any professional opinion and consider or follow at your own risk! dah lepas bab legal.... i will try to susun all items kat sini...tapi...me the unorganized gal....nasib la ye....trying to keep it as informal as it can be!
