Whose Wedding Is This?!...

How big would a bride (or a groom) really want their wedding to be? What would they want at the wedding? In this matter, WHAT WOULD I WANT for MY wedding?

I hear sinister remarks on planning and/or sometimes during the prep of weddings especially if it ain't the first for either bride or groom. Sadly, those hurtful words are always from your own relatives! All I can say is, to hell with them! I mean, they say weddings shouldn't be a huge of a celebration. They say why waste money when you already once had a fairy tale wedding. They too say why trouble yourself doing hundreds if not thousands of crazy tiny detailing (from the walkway and aisle, to the place cards and the favours for your guests)! While I say, every new beginning is a celebration. I say, that previous so-called fairy tale wedding I had years ago wasn't with the man I'm in love with now. I say, it's my bloody penny. Plus I say, those head-cracking detailed prep will definitely be our smile of joy as bride and groom on OUR wedding day.

So I made a conclusion that your wedding is YOUR wedding! Follow YOUR heart (if not your budget). Follow/do what YOU want (let it be splurge on the dress or the ring, or even better, splurge on BOTH). Make us and our significant other-half, THE happiest and most satisfied soon-to-be bride or groom around! ~XOXOX~

Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend...

Well well well... As expensive as it may sound, I'll have to agree with the song sung by Marilyn Monroe! A diamond IS a girl's best friend! Oh, at least it's mine. No joke! How can one not be?! So what's your favourite piece of diamond jewellery you wish you had? As for me, it's this pair of chandelier earrings I saw at my favourite jeweller! Oh-Em-Geeeee...I kept on trying everytime I'm there for an appointment!! Breathtaking!! The price tag too, will take your breath away. Like really, TAKE your breath away! *lol*... ~XOXOX~

Engagement Is A Promise Of Two...

I recently got engaged to my man. Yes, I am single...a single mother, to be exact. Same goes to my fiance, a single father...both with 'baggage'. Much earlier, I and hubs had plan that no engagement shall take place in our relationship. That was all due to the hustle and bustle of the prep, as well as the negative 'challenges' that only increases at that period of being engaged. And being a Malay (a culture with many 'beliefs' from the ancestors), guarantees that that is NOT a myth!! Been there, done that!! Anyhow, negativity aside, I'm glad that we both took a step further in this very special 'unexpected' relationship. Certainly, we're so looking forward to January 2012...


P/s: Do you like my custom-made engagement ring and diamond encrusted 'R' pendant?! *smiles* Both were from Fa'iq Jewels!

Eid Mubarak 1432H...

This was the best Eid celebrated after two miserable years. At least this was a start to a happy chapter. Firstly, it was the family's turn to be celebrating at his hometown in Johore. Fortunately, grandma decided to come up to Kuala Lumpur and celebrate it here!! To be honest, I don't have a prob spending days in the the serene village. Surrounded by greens and fresh air. But I just don't like being there doing nothing. Yes, I don't like lazing around for days! Secondly, it'll be my first time celebrating Eid with my soon-to-be fiancé! Yes, I was crazy excited!! Even my daughter was excited having a father figure around. Alhamdulillah. Alhamdulillah for all the happiness Allah SWT has granted to me. I'll forever be in debt to Him. To my Muslim brothers and sisters out there, have a great memorable Hari Raya Aidilfitri. For those that I've sinned, I hereby sincerely ask for your forgiveness. May Allah showers his blessings on you & your loved ones. ~XOXOX~

The Much Awaited BlackBerry 9900...

Well, finally got my BlackBerry 9900 a.k.a Bold 4 (given by hubs as a birthday present). Before BlackBerry came into my life, I've always been oh-so-loyal to my iPhone 3G (which obviously does not exist anymore at any Apple outlet!). Remembering my first Berry, twas the BlackBerry 9780 a.k.a Bold 2, (also a gift, but from a dear friend). Everyone was so puzzled on why I wanted a Berry so much, though I knew I had only one reason. Which, was the BBM Application!! My God, the fact that I can send anything and everything (somewhat works like a bluetooth and a chatroom at the same time) everywhere I go and without any extra chargers, beats it all! Okay okaaayy, I lied (bout the reason, I mean)! *lol* The honest truth is...I saw Warrick Brown (real name Gary Dourdan) used a Berry in a few episodes of CSI Las Vegas. I am head-over-heels for him!! He's like THE hottest African-American actor I've ever known (well, aside from Taye Diggs & Shemar Moore that is)!! Oh hubs, if you're reading this...you're STILL & WILL ALWAYS be my numero uno (*lol* with a serious face)!! So yeah...thank you so much to my sweetheart for the awesome birthday gift. Now I'll be carrying you everywhere I go, baby...literally!! *smiles*

Oh, apart from the phone, I also got a set of princess-cut diamond stud earrings from my darling pet-sister; Suzyra. And it's definitely one of my favourite studs now!! ~XOXOX~
