I'm on RX Lite Diet for 6 days!

I'm on RX Lite diet for 6 days already, to date. Why 6 days? Sbb weekend hari tu gagal lah diet RX Lite, balik JB. hahaha. Started last Thursday. Just see how it works on me. Hopefully, it really works. Seriously i sangat2 berharap ni. And the taste of RX Lite is simply the best. I just love it. Even my fiance does. (coz i gave him to take a sip, hehehe). The best replacement drink so far.

6 more months to go for the wedding! Hopefully, i'm able to shed of 5-8kgs Yeehaaaaaaaaa! Baju nikah and sanding pun lum tempah lagi ni. Bg kurang sikit inches kat badan, and Insya Allah, next month kitorg tempah.

'Risk It' be an actuary!

The parcel that we've been waiting for, since the last 3 weeks. Finally, we got this Free Tee. =)

Henna Mehndi by Nabila Jamel

I made an appointment with her, and managed to get her last Sunday, to do some henna mehndi drawing/design testing on me. Saje je suka2, coz i wanna see the color, the outcome of the henna, and how long will it last since the day henna drawing done by her. Konon2 macam UAT lah kan, before the wedding day. (Kang monyok and menyesal plak klo inai tak cantik nnt, dah too late nak turn back time kan.)

Glad that i met her, she's very bubbly and only 23 years old lady. OMG, i'm 4 years elder than her. Shaitssss! Hehehe. Mcm tak dapat nak terima hakikat yang aku dah tua. Just imagine we did henna at Georgetown White Coffee, Wangsa Walk Mall from 4-7pm.

Let the pics below do the talking. =P

Tgh tunggu inai kering

Tadaaa, da kering (kat luar WangsaWalkMall)
orangie sket kaler nye kan.

Masa sblm tido (lps sapu minyak
cakap kapak and baby oil)
Henna yang dah bermalam bertukar

Fikiranku Sungguh Kusut!

I'm having problem in making decision of which pelamin vendors should I hire for my wedding. Dah 6 tempat dah pergi, masing2 ada pro and cons nyer. And therefore i need someone to share my confusion in selecting one of them. Nak jumpe kwn i yang juga a decorator. huhuhu. Harap2 leh jumpe u this weekend and hopefully i can make a very wise decision without feeling regret right after i made the final decision, coz there's no more turning back. Sheeshhhhh! I hate this.

8 more months to go! Sweats are all over!

8 more months to go. The clock is ticking fast. Shittttt! Sungguh menyeramkan. Bulan 2 yang lepas, baru lah aku menggerakkan jentera bersama dia utk survey and get some quotations from potential vendors of which we might be hiring for our solemnization and wedding reception (Rasa mcm nak tunda kawen pun ade, stress punye pasal).

During this month, both of us need to finalize the most important vendors (kene pk masak2 supaya tak menyesal bile dah buat keputusan muktamad and paid the deposit nnt), such as pelamin and deco dewan, gubahan hantaran, photographer, videographer, canopy, make up artist, and baju. Mcm benda2 yg aku sebutkan ni, my dad suruh i survey, he said he tak mampu nak buat sume benda seorg, sbbnye my mom is a little unwell and he needs to take care of my mom while my mom is at home. Catering i pass it to my parents to handle.

Solemnization and Wedding Venue: Hall (Booked and paid the deposit in May 2009).

Pelamin and Deco Dewan: Still surveying, i.e ArmaWeddingCouture, Kak Aida Debunga Gallery, Lynda Rahim, AriWeddingCouture, RassWeddings, RinsSuzana. Yang ni mmg tahap pening nak pecah kepala pikir. This part lah yang paling stress dlm byk2 yg berkaitan ngan wedding vendors ni. Keputusan muktamad harus la dibuat dlm bulan ini juga, klo boleh before 3rd week of March ni, bukannye ape, takut vendors2 ni dibook oleh bakal2 pengantin lain plak, dah melepas kitorg berdua.

Photographer: Dah survey mcm2, ie Avicenna, MyShots, GreenApple, RupaJiwa, JanggutTouch, and few others thru email. And rasa2nya kitorg mcm dah decide utk hire this potential photographer. Appointment dah pun dibuat, utk ketemu mereka this Saturday 06March2010. If mr fiance okayy dgn portfolio mereka, we'll proceed with the bookings. (Malas dah nak pikir, settle cepat lagi bagus, tak pening kepala.)

Videographer: MyShots, CST Production and etc. Tapi yang dah pegi jumpe is only CST, jumpe dgn En. Rosli, a nice man, and my fiance like the way he treats and layan customer. Yang MyShots, we tau their quotation thru email. Yang ni pun kitorg macam dah decide nak amik sape, tp belum depo je lagi. And still thinking whether to take only for solemnization or both. Kopak2. =(

Canopy: NSJ Event. Disebabkan aku mmg dah berangan2 lama dah nak canopy transparent tu since my engagement last year, tp hasrat itu tak kesampaian, sbb canopy camtu sesuai pakai malam je. By hook or by crook, harus aku dapatkannye for my wedding. Last year's plan, initially nak buat nikah kat rumah, tp tetiba bulan 1 haritu, my parents tetiba kata tak nak buat nikah kat umah (nasib aku bijak, aku book the hall for two days straight, hehehe). Aku dgn perasaan geram, tp tetap tak berputus asa, terus call NSJ Event ni, aku kata aku nak khemah satu yg transparent sekali dgn deco fairy lights and garden balls, i nak nikah bawah tu, hahaha. Gile kan? Sbb awal bulan 2, i ade mintak quotation utk 2 canopy transparent, 2 yang biasa utk kat umah. Pastu alih2 terpaksa tukar plan, nak 1 canopy transparent plus deco, platform and carpet. Kelakar plak dalam dewan ade canopy 20X20 transparent, tp aku peduli ape, dah aku yang nak sgt kan, lagipun duit kite sendiri. kekeke. Dah jumpe dorg and quotation pun dah dapat. Deposit je belum buat lg.

MakeUp Artist: Ayang Kamell (nikah) and Amy Janz (sanding). Deposit paid for both make up artist. Alhamdulillah, lega bab yang ni dah settle. Tak payah runsing2 lagi dah nak pk amik sape. BTW, this two makeup artist is recommended by my model friend. Thanks darlin'.

Baju: Tak sure lagi nak buat dgn siapa. Mungkin dgn Syomir Izwa, Syahrir Nurdin, RinsSuzana, ataupun tailor biasa je, klo dah malas nak pk sangat. hahaha.

Gubahan Hantaran: Amik yang sama mcm engagement dulu tu kot. Coz she's my dad's friend daughter in law. Punye lah keciknye dunia ni, we got to know about this pun, masa dia datang rumah buat sume gubahan2 tu for my engagement, bile berborak2 terbukalah citer.

Catering: InsyaAllah, we'll be meeting the caterer this Saturday to bincang2 the menu and the quotation. My mom and dad kata sedap caterer ni masak, ntah dorg pegi wedding sape and rasa masakan this caterer. Wallahualam, i tak pernah rasa. Apapun, i percaya my parents nye taste buds. Jamuan makan masa kenduri kawin biar sedap.

Itu sahaja update buat masa ini. If kitorg ade masa lagi, kitorg akan update k. tata.

Ties from M&S

Actually, niat utk membelikan my sayang tie baru mmg dah lama ada. Tapi, co' yang dia kerja sblm ni (the 2nd co'), tak memerlukan dia utk memakai tie. So, hasrat itu terbantut laaa kan. Then, 'dia' has gotten his new job in one of the GLC company which requires him to wear ties daily (baru nak dekat sebulan kerja situ). Aku ni mmg sorg yang sgt suka tgk tie yang cantik2, klo bleh sume pun nak rembat (gile kan). Tie dia yg lama2 pun ade, tp kene lah tambahkan koleksi tie yang baru2 sket, barulahhh chunsss and bleh lah cycle of rotations tu lama lah sket kan. Oleh sbb itu, atas dasar tahniah dapat kerja baru and atas dasar aku mmg hantu tie, aku pun menghadiahkannyer 3 pasang ties lagi (actually 4 psg ties, yg lg satu tu lupe nak amik gambar, coz beli seminggu sblm beli yg 3 ni). Tie M&S byk juga yg lawa2 and murah sket, banding yg kat Isetan ke ape kan (anyway based on masing2nyer taste and preferences). He loves stripe ties, tu yg byk stripes tu. As for me, i tak kisah tie stripe ke tak, as long as, klo aku dah suka, aku beli je tanpa pikir panjang. He chose his ties (i pun sibuk tlg pilih kan gak), and seek for my opinions, whether ok ke tak (kene ade mutual agreement, hihihi), then i paid for it. Tp, dia ade cakap kat aku, dah lepas ni takmau beli yg stripe, collection stripe dah cukup, nak buat collection design2 yg lain plak (tau pun, dalam hati aku ckp, kekeke).

Tie2 ni klo tgk dpn2 mmg chuns. Guna camera hp je, tu yg cam kureng sket kan. =P

Anyway sayang, Congratulations on your new position in the GLC organization. Hope you like and love the ties that i bought for you as a gift (dgn harapan bile pakai tie2 ni, u akan igt i selalu). =)

Apakah MIMPI itu bakal menjadi KENYATAAN?

Aku seorang yang amat jarang sekali bermimpi. Hari Khamis lepas, malamnyer aku tido seperti biasa, pukul 10pm dah shut down dahhh. And then pagi Jumaat tu mimpi baiknyer lahhh (mimpi khamis malam jumaat, mimpi yg elok kan, kekeke). Tersangatlah happy if ia menjadi kenyataan dalam masa terdekat ni. Klo benar2 berlaku, aku telah berniat utk puasa nazar sehari. Janji sehari dulu, klo tetiba mampu puasa lebih, nnt posa lah kan, tp taknak janji awal2 dulu, takut tak terbuat/tertunai. =D

The day, I turned to 26!

It was my 26th birthday, on the 26th Sept 2009 (Saturday). What we all did, were just a makan2 and had a good time together. Yeap, it's just a small celebration between the two of us (nothing to be proud about), as it is the 1st yr we celebrated as fiance, we loved to keep it more personal, that's what we are, ever since we're together 5 yrs back. I'm just so happyyyyyyyy. =D.

Buah Tangan untuk Bakal Mertua

Haaaaa, ni namanye takde kerjaaaa. hahaha. Ntah kenapa ntah, tetiba rajin nak wat deco kat tutup balang yang aku beli hanya 85sen sebalang from Bake with Yen. Ni sume kakak secretary ofis aku punye pasal lah ni, she taught me how to do it. By right, i'm not born with creative fingers. Berdehek lah jugak nak buat pada mulanya. Yelah tangan yang keras nak menghadap ngan benda2 sebegini rupa, maunye tak rasa nak patah pinggang. Benda2 yang memerlukan kekreativitian ni, biasanya aku suh/order org buat je, tak kosa eden nak membuatnye. =P

Actually, it has become a tradition for myself to give cookies for my BF's family for the past years since i started earning my own cents (selalunye bagi bulat2 bekas biskut yang aku order je, tapi tahun ni lain sket la, order byk2 jenis adalah dapat dalam 13 balang, nampak lah effort sket kat keluarga mertua kan). Why i didn't bake my own cookies? Sbbnye nnt tak makan (dh kenyang hidu masa bakar and mengadun cookies, dah byk kali terjadi mcm ni), yg keduanye, membazir (baiklah beli sahaja dalam 2 balang satu jenis, bahagi2kan sama rata utk sesape yang aku nak bg, penat pun tak sangat kannn). Beli biskut yang sedap and quality terjamin, kite tuan empunya membeli pun makan, klo buat sendiri, hmmm jawabnye mcmtu je lah rupanye dari awal raya sampai lah dah abis syawal, tak terluak. hahaha.

Gambar Coklat Oat, Samperit, Popia Simpul and Almond Rocher je takde dalam ni. Tak sempat nak amik, sbb bg my fiance Hari Khamis sblm dia pulang ke kampung pada malam itu juga.

1st Day of Syawal: 1Malaysia Raya @ Home

Setelah 2 malam tak berapa nak tido, inilah hasilnyeeeee. Pelbagai juadah utk dihidangkan di 1 Syawal, antara Raya signature dishes: kuah lontong, lemang, nasi impit, kuah kacang, sambal sotong, serunding, and some additional dishes: lodeh kering, rendang tok, dalca sayur, ayam masak merah, acar buah, dan nasi serai. For desserts, ade cheese cake, brownies, cookies, dodol and etc. Disebabkan aku part of the team yang memasak with my mom sahaja, aku pun takde selera sangat nak makan. hahaha. Penatnye tuhan saje yang tahu, nak menyediakan bahan2 dan memasak. Seleraku hanya terpaut pada yg satu, sambal sotong. Aku berdating ngan sotong dari pukul 8pg sabtu, utk menyiang sotong sbyk 2kg. Lepas tu continue masak2 lauk pauk seterusnye, mmg non stop lah dari pagi tu sampai lah ke pagi esoknyeee. =P

Hair Styling by Evita Peroni

Tensionnnn, bile pikir gaya nak melawakan rambut, atau nak ikat yang style2 sket. Rambut aku dah lah sket, pastu klo wat pony tail, nampak macam ape jer, ikat half pun aku sendiri tak suka tgk. Rambut takde volume, tu yang susah tu. Jalan penyelesaiannye, satu hari tu, akudandia ke klcc, dan aku pun masuklah Evita Peroni, utk cuci2 mata pada mulanya.
Dalam banyak2 aksesori rambut dalam tu, aku terbekenan lah plakkkkkkkkkk kat design ni, sbb leh wat pony tail, half pony tail and a bun. And surprisingly my hair doesnt look that flatten as to compare with tie dgn getah / hair clip biasa. Haishhhh! Tamak and sbb dah jatuh hati punye pasal, habis terembat dua sekaligus. Walaupun pada mulanya nak beli satu je. =P
Haaa, aku suruh this girl tie kan my hair, ye lah dah rabak RM500 over, alang2 tu baik aku suruh dorg buat rambut aku, baru rasa berbaloi sket. hahaha. Tp mahal2 this Evita Peroni nye hair accessories, they have lifetime warranty, klo ade ape2 masalah leh pegi kedai nye, bawak those accessories, or if tak tau nak guna, leh suruh those girls wat kan ur hair. That's why, Evita Peroni's accessories damn priceyyy, it's simply because the services they provide which makes us to pay upfront. =)

I want a SLIMMER thighs and hips, please!

I've been dreaming to have a slimmer thighs and hips. Fuhhhh! Kalau nak tau, masa sebelum nak engaged, mmg gigihlah exercise guna stepper, skrg ni stepper tu terperuk je right after 15Aug2009 hari tu. hahaha. Bile lah aku akan rajin semula menggunakan stepper utk exercise hari2 eh? Harap2 lepas Ramadhan nnt, azam and tekad utk kurus lagi, masih ade dan terus kuat sampai lah dah kawin nnt yer. Yelah just imagine nnt by the time bulan April2010, i rasa dah kene siap2 tempah baju kat butik mana2 kan nnt. If not mistaken at least 6 months before majlis dah kene tempah, and dah tau theme color ape kan. Owhhh gosh, nak tempah baju kat siapa pun i tak tau lg ni, agak2 sape nyer design eh, affordable, cantik, kemas, terletak pada potongan badan and worthy with the price eh. Alamak tolong gueeee, sudah mula pening! =P

Finally, It's 25th!

I'm so happy today coz it's payday. Almaklumlah, duit dah byk habis utk engagement yang berlangsung pada 15/8 hari tu. Lega hari ni duit dalam account da penuh balik. kekeke. Alhamdulillah. Klo lah gaji dapat 30hb, mau lah makan pasir aku dibuatnyer, sbb malas lah nak usik duit dalam ASB kan, tu yang mati2 walau macam mana pun nak tunggu salary masuk gak. =P

Lunch with Mum @ Restoran Insaf

Masa pegi beli kain utk majlis merisik haritu, my mum and i had lunch at Restoran Insaf. Sbb dah penat merayap dari satu kedai ke lagi satu kedai, haruslahh perut pun lapar kan. hehehe. Seperti biasa lah ape lagi klo nak makan kat restoran insaf ni, mestilah order nasi beriyani nye. Aku mintak extra papedom and kuah madu. Sedaaaaaapppp. Tapi harganye mmg melampau tak hengatttt! Makan berdua dah RM30, gilakannn harganyee.

Balasan Dulang Hantaran for Merisik

Here are some foodies for balasan utk dulang hantaran for our merisik nnt, from me to him. =) One dulang for the Chocolate made in Italy while another dulang is for the pistachios and choco kurma. I asked my eldest sis to buy them in Dubai. 2 dulang dah settle, lagi 5 dulang utk letak yang lain2. Next2 post baru buat entry apekah isi2 di dalam sume2 dulang bile dah finalize and confirm nnt, semestinya semua makanan except sirih junjung, tapi sirih pun bleh makan ape kan, utk sesape yang sanggup makan lah, yang pada kebiasaannye ialah org2 tua. =P

Smile Yasmin, Smile =)

Sorry for gambar yang berlatar belakangkan pemandangan mcm tongkang pecah, coz my sister's family just arrived yesterday afternoon, so barang2 pun byk tak kemas lagi. And i just took these photos of my youngest niece and her sister few hours ago. =) I mmg geram sangat kat si kenit tu. Since smlm i nak balik keje cepat je. Dah la speaking je memanjang, tak dgr sepatah pun perkataan melayu daripada mulut si kenit ni. Siap pose2 lagi bile nak amik gambar. hehehe.

Fly from the US and DUBAI

I'm excited coz today my eldest sis, BIL, my nieces and only nephew will be in town for their Summer Holiday until first week of Ramadhan. They will arrive at KLIA @ 3pm, and my parent will fetch them at the airport. Can't wait to get back home sharp at 5.45pm tomorrow, just to spend some quality time with them upon their arrival. =)

Lunch di Gerai

Kat tempat baru aku keje skrg ni, byk jugak lah tempat makan yang sedap2. Dah lah sedap pastu murah plak tu. =P So, tentang makanan aku tak penah regret.

In a way, tukar keje tempat baru ni, walaupun gaji naik, expenses utk makan dan minum takde lah ketuk sangat macam kat klcc. Which means keje kat tempat baru ni, i can save a lot more. =) Nak save byk, kene ade disiplin tinggi gak dalam diri aku ni, bukan bermakna bile gaji dah naik x0%, bleh berbelanja sesuka hati k. kekeke. I will try to minimize my spending in a month, as much as i could. No matter what i must save a minimum of RM1K per month. That's my spirit since my 1st month i got my first salary in Sept 2006.

Nasi goreng kampung kat gerai ni tersangat lah murah pada aku, RM3.50. Masa keje kat KLCC dulu, paling murah pun is RM5. Kat gerai ni ade macam2 makanan lagi, tapi aku tak penah cuba, coz Nasi Goreng Kampung is my all time favourite. Klo lagi pedas, lagi lah meletup. hahaha.
