Looking forward to…

wedding-gown

This week is going to be a busy week with so many things to look forward to:

1. Our “I do” moment at church on this Saturday 28th Nov, 11.30 am. Our parents, close family and some friends will attend and witness us tying the knot in front of God.

2. Wedding banquet in Medan on this Sunday 29th Nov. For me, it is not just an eat-and-go-home moment but more of a reunion before I permanently move to Malaysia with my boy. There will be friends from primary to senior high school, friends from KL, and many more.

3. Actual day and wedding banquet in Sibu on next Sunday 6th Dec. I’ll be flying along with my parent, brother, grandma, Dad’s sister and husband on Friday 4th Dec.

4. The arrival of future in-laws and guests from KL (Funkers and my boy’s close friend) on this Friday and Saturday. Gonna be a tourist guide for the next few days.

5. Packing and packing, from clothes to shoes and many more. Luckily we are not moving to four-season-country or else I’ll have more stuffs to bring such as heated blanket and warm jackets. Pfiuh.

Hope everything goes well from the wedding ceremony to getting legal documents done. :)

Nightmare

I just had the worst dream ever. It is worse than the dream that I had few years ago – of me having Dutch Master cigars in my dream. Luckily nature-call (read: going toilet) came in at the right moment and wake me up. :P

So, I dream that I was scolding someone kao kao for don’t know what reason. Not clear who is that unlucky person too. For sure I put full energy in scolding like there is no tomorrow. Then I turn my head to the right side and saw a few people standing there who were stoned with what I’ve just done. I yelled at them,”See what see? Never see people scold people is it?”

It’s been a while since I last scold someone like that. I wonder if this dream is a reflection of my current feeling or what. Hm.. But I seriously don’t want to be a bridezilla especially on the big day itself. Anger management and self control, here I come!

Boobies can lie

Most of the time I always associate man with cars, auto accessories, and geeky stuffs. But the following video, that I got from my friend’s link on Facebook, opens up my eyes that sometimes man knows about woman’s stuff better than us.

Seriously this is a compliment to the skillful man in the video. From a flat chest to having “boobs” with cleavage, no surgery is involved, only NuBra and push up bra along with some understanding of body shape, that’s just wow-ing! He proves that nothing is impossible and he brings hope to you-know-who.

On another side, it shows that thing can be faked. So, men out there, don’t let those flash lights fool your eyes and mind! :P

And the big day is getting nearer

Okay, so it’s been 10 days since my last post. Whew.. Busy, that’s it. Lots to write here but just couldn’t find the time to really sit down and type.

Anyway, I have decided to take things slower (read: amount of work) and allow myself to have more space to breath and relax. I mean, almost every brides-to-be will pamper themselves by going to spa (read: luluran etc) every week or every month before the big day, and I still get myself busy with tight-deadline kinda work while my big day is just less than 1 month away.

I don’t want to have dark circles around my eyes and be a panda-look-alike-bride due to lack of sleep cause working on tight-deadline-job yadayada. Some more, friends who met me sure said you-look-so-skinny, face-so-dull, stress-life-huh, blablabla.

So, yes, I’m gonna take things slower. After all, BIG day is a once in a life time event! And, mine is coming in less than 3 weeks time. Here’s the exact timeline: 2 weeks until my church wedding (Oh yes, boyfriend and I will have one. More about this later on.) and wedding banquet in Medan, 3 weeks until the actual day and wedding banquet in Sibu.

Gone too soon

There is just too many wonderful people that has ‘gone too soon’ (read: pass away) this year. To name a few, there was MJ the King of Pop, Yasmin Ahmad the award-winning storyteller from Malaysia, and recently it is someone that we – boyfriend and I – not only know the name but also the person personally.

The bad news was delivered by boyfriend via phone call on yesterday. Three words of ‘CK passed away’ was more than enough to make me felt shocked, hand trembled, and almost dropped tears, that I don’t know how boyfriend and CK’s family friends can handle this news. It is just too sudden. He is 24 years old or so only, healthy and no chronic illness. When I knew that it happened in this way – he slept and never woke up from the sleep – how I wish that there will be a miracle, that he could wake up from the comma and there will be happy ending.

Until today, memories of late CK still plays in my head. He is one of my favorite persons among boyfriend’s friends, because he spoke slowly (and yet steady) which made me managed to catch and understand the conversation between him and boyfriend, and he used mandarin most of the time. That was during the early days when my listening of FooChow wasn’t that good yet.

I remembered I had my hair cut by him back in 2005, when he still worked as a hairstylist in KL before he moved to Singapore. On mid year 2005, we celebrated the dumpling festival together. In the above picture – left hand side, he was wrapping the dumpling together with another friend (Mow).

On the same day, we celebrated the birthday of Mow – boyfriend’s close friend. In the above picture, Mow the birthday boy holding the cake, Mow’s girlfriend (now wife), CK, boyfriend and I. The below picture, when the boys trying to act cute.

The last time I saw him was almost 3 years ago. Boyfriend and I stayed at his place when we had to go to Singapore for few days, cause my student visa was about to expired and my leg was in bad condition due to the hot water incident. If it wasn’t him who offered us a place to stay, we would be homeless in Singapore I guess. Economy was bad for us the fresh-grads back then.

It is quite hard to believe that he is gone now, for forever. May he rest in peace.

P.S. During some period of LDR and when boyfriend fell sick, he would said how nobody will know his condition if the illness went worse and bad thing happens blablabla. *touch woods* His worry does make sense, cause boyfriend’s family and I stayed thousand miles away from him. While he stayed with the landlord and girlfriend (both 20sth yo) who hardly stayed in the house, that’s all. Before that, there was an ignorant housemate which didn’t help at all.

I feel that this somehow ties with the bad news of boyfriend’s friend. I mean, working overseas and staying alone without a good housemates or friends (in the same house or apartment) is a big no no. And, staying with family is the best. Aihz, somehow emo mode on. Sigh.
