The checklist

 Last week, my heart was beating so fast, i became short tempered. i get annoyed easily. for once i thought i was gonna die, because all i do was sleep in my free time. i guess thats how my mind and body respond to stress.

Like any other day, weekdays is a bitch to me. Just in case u haven't heard me saying this, i'll say it again. I HATE MY JOB. thankyou.

Then i commented on a friend facebook status, 'guten morgen, lovers' which mean good morning lovers. i happened to tell her about my bitchy weekdays and she said, ' well, we all do, but demi sesuap nasi, suffer je la kan.' well, she's right anyway. put it like this, i need this salary to save for my wedding. to make it a beautiful one even if its not expensive :) well everybody dream wedding will cost millions. Unless you are as lucky as Marion Caunter lah kan.

anyway, i found this check list and decided to have it on my blog as well. i hope it will get me organized.

The Ghost of the Ex.

My ex? NOPE! Im done with all my exes. They are definitely HISTORY now. and im glad they are history because i love my present :)

so yesterday i tweeted, "Dear Allah, tonight I don't want to dream abt the past. Let me dream of the present and future. Thank you. Faithfully, Mimi."

the ghost of your ex is haunting me baby. god knows for what reason. maybe i felt insecure. maybe because all the things she said. and i dont like the past. you have thought me to let go, and so i did. but subconsciously, i didnt let go.


please please Allah. Im on my bended knees, please let me let this go or ill never feel happpiness again.


Love,
Mimi

I have died and gone to Heaven :)

relationship and friendship. both is vital to life. u need either one to survive this horrible life.

i wanna thank my baby for all the things he have done. Thank you for just being there and sometimes you u dont even say a word when im sad, because u understand. you know what i want. you witness every tears, every laugh, every smile that i let out. and im happy that i can share all that with a person as incredible as you. you were there, eventhough when i have my ridiculous mood swings. you stayed and you didnt bail on me. among everybody i have met. you stayed the longest in terms of patience. THANK YOU, BABY ARIEF :)

so, i have a beautiful relationship. what more can i ask for? friendship of course. well i have friends, but my friends are not the one that would take a bullet for me. its more like, hey we're friends WITH benefit. to me, why be friends, when you wanna be jealous of me, you were never happy of what i have. thats not friend. i rather not have you at all. seriously. im looking for a sincere friendship, if there is ever a sec that you feel like you hate me, go away. dont be my friend. i dont wanna get hurt anymore.

but for now, im content with the amount of friends i have. i dont have a whole bus. but i have a few 'take a bullet for you' friend :)

I'm happy with my life. I have Arief, i have my girlfriends. Im complete :)

When to shop for Hantaran?

I was on YM with my beloved YM partner, Ainee Joe today. I asked her when is she coming to KL and she said when there is sales. and she asked me when is that. i confidently said MARCH! haha MALU!

no its not march, peeps!

Malaysian Mega Sale Carnival 2011 will be held on 15th June 2011 to 31st August 2011. So, darlings, save up! Spend your heart out ;)

I'm gonna save for my hantarans :)

  1. Mossimo Dutti shirts, pants
  2. Perfume( eau de parfum ok! no toilet!)
  3. DSLR camera
  4. PS 3
Ok thats all i can think of since Mr Fiance is bugging my life to drag me to the gym. Doesnt he knows that i get so much weaker everything i step foot in the gym? grrr!

bye babies! mwahh!

What's Next ?

HELLO PEEPOS :)

Okay engagement, done. whats next? Wedding of course ;) OMG so ex-fucking-cited! weeee :)))

Few weeks before my engagements, we were having problems with my reception venue. but the its all settled now :)

WHERE? .... 


TAADDAAA


BUKIT KIARA EQUESTARIAN AND COUNTRY RESORT!

hahaha siap promote kan? anyway im having a garden wedding by the poolside. so it should look like this.






so now, the add on budget is the freaking canopy. kenapalah malaysia ni punya weather unpredictable! which is RM450 per canopy and of course la my canopy nak yang arabian pastu ada LED light. haha yes very over the top like baby would always say. but hey im only getting married to you once, Arief Farhan Rahim! i deserve the right to be picky!

My doorgifts is done! Literally. Dah dapat idea. maybe i can ask Ainee's fiance to help me with some drawings :D

next, my venue for akad nikah is done. YEAY! i kahwin dekat IPOH! my hometown! woohoo! Arief said my dad can close a mosque for us. HAHA. gila hebat kan boyfriend i? opps tunang lah! i keep forgetting that he's my lawfully binded fiance. hehe!

Lagi? i nak pakai burung dekat kepala. okay~ not exactly a bird. but bird lah. Like SJP wore in Sex and the City. Dont have the idea of it? Here it is :)

isnt this breathtaking?




OH YES! WEDDING DECORATOR! Spoke to Arjuna Cipta. Grrr harga mahal gila. Seriously sometimes when i look at his quotation, i rasa macam ridiculous. anyway, trying to talk him through my budget. i just love their artwork. i want them! i want them!

what else? Boutonnieres, tablescape, bouquet. soo many things to do.  

FUTURE MOTHER IN LAW CAN YOU HELP ME, PLEASE :(

God is always there :)

Not many people know how stressed i was for the past week. Doing all the preparation for my E-day. From getting the food, to the setting up, to the dresses, to the doorgifts, to the hantarans. Life can be really challenging when you gotta deal with it all alone. And when family back out on you at the very last minute.

sometimes we all wanna cry and scream and yell at the same time. Well, i did that. Still, my worries are still there. Will it work out. Will it be just like how i wanted it to be? And Right to the very end, i dont fucking have a photographer. -_-

Like seriously, i DONT have a photographer for my engagement. And everybody has been saying, its once in the lifetime event, you gotta have it the way u want it. and nobody is there to take my pictures of the happy day. So, i sat down and think. Nobody is gonna pity me. i got to pity myself. So i should do all it takes to make my E-day a memorable one. Yes, i'm mad with their selfish-ness but who am i to ask them to help? Im only a sister. who bothers? Mak will bother but she's not here. I gotta bother my own shit then. Sad? yeah, but whatever. i'll get it done :)

so, me being all tech savvy. i googled for my last minute photographer that was like 3 days away from my E-day. Guess what i typed? LOL you wont believed me. i typed ' photographer murah RM 500 bertunang'.

I wasnt being a cheap stake but i do have some financial issues and the family are a bit meticulous. Its all up to me then to fork out the money. Well, they are paying for the food and pelamin and all. but other petty little stuff are left to me to go figure. Anyways, back to my googling, as i hit the Enter button, BOOM! i found it. you know what i got? I got this for RM 600! believe it or not? heee :)

RM600
- 1 DAY EVENT
- 1 UNIT STORY ALBUM (SEMPENA PROMOSI)
- COVER SAMPAI HABIS MAJLIS
- DVD SOFTCOPY
- UNLIMITED PHOTOSHOOT
- 2 JURUGAMBAR + 1 EXTRA PHOTOGRAPHER ( she said she'll add one more for me! yeay! lucky me!)
- OUTDOOR KAWASAN SEKITAR SELEPAS MAJLIS
(SEMPENA PROMOSI)


i know. i know this is a super good deal right? Hell yeah, it is. They take really good pictures and the lady, Kak Leeza is soo friendly. Felt comfortable the moment i met her. Go check it out Grasshopper Photography.

Whats pending now?

1. My heels
2. Baby's baju melayu
3. Door gifts 

Thats all i guess for now. 

Seriously, I went and see Kak Leeza and when i saw her artwork. I was thankful to God, he saved my ass this time. It was beautiful and up to my budget. and her art work is up to my taste. LOVE LOVE her! 

Thank you God. Thank you for being there where everyone else bail on me. Alhamdullilah :)




God is always there for everyone.Miracle do happened.
