The best thing about me is you

Hari ini cuti!!! Weeeeeeee :D Happy Friday lovelies!

I wanna be billionaire so friggin' bad..Buy all of the things I never had

...Like the convertible new Beetle in apple green or one of those overly high-priced service condos next to KLCC. Hehehe.. New beetle sebab my car dah ala2 kaput skrg and condo tu sebab senang nak pegi kerja. Oh the privillege of waking up 20 mins before going to work. Good morning people! Those are the lines from my current favourite song by Travis Mccoy and Bruno Mars. Bruno's voice is awesome yawwwww! Check out the acoustic version here. Cair tak? I cair. Hahahaha..

Kita dok sibuk survey2 wedding dresses, what about the groom? I was thinking that on the day of my reception, Mr.Man is gonna wear a suit because concept ala2 modern gitu lah kan. My dress, ok dah ada some rough ideas of how its gonna look like. But groom nih.. Ok suit is quite generic. Senang je nak tempah or sewa ke apa kan. But I have conflicting thoughts on the details. For example, should Mr.Man wear a suit with a thin black tie or a grey waistcoat? Hmmm... Eh suit yg ready-made dekat Topman tu pn nice. Sangat metro. Tapi Mr.Man kena kurus sekurus2 nya lah to fit in that kind of cutting. Topman's designs kan sgt2 skinny.

grey waistcoat.Ala2 English gentleman gitu... Sweet

open collared shirt... it enhances the relaxing look. Cool kan? Sesuai lah kalau nak kahwin outdoor or kat beach

grey suit! I really love the colour. It's modern and very elegant.

black suit with white tie

black suit with thin black tie. I sooo love tie kurus. Very the Topman-ish. Very edgy. Mr.Man seems to like this type of tie too. Hmmmm...

Voila! Smart gile!

You can see happiness shining through their faces. Like, so sooo happy and not to mention glowing.

Ok people, have a blast coz' today is T-G-I-F!!!! :D

(Thanks SugarLove Weddings for the lovely pics)

Shutter Island.....Someone is missing

It is absolutely mind-blowing!!! I'd say it is one of this year's must-see movies. It is a heavy-type of movie, full of suspense. Have you watched Identity? Lebih kurang mcm ni lah. I suka cerita yg ala2 ada conspiracy, twisted saikos and plots. Mencabar minda. Eceeehhh... What more can i say about Leo Di Caprio? All grown up and extremely convincing as the main character in this movie. Not really a big fan of his. Watched Titanic but didnt really like it. I tak suka lah cerita cinta yang ending dia sedih. Bikin stress. I watched a couple more of his films like The Aviator (lamaaaaaa gile citer ni. I remember i left in the middle of the movie sbb nak balik rumah.Ahahahah..Kesian date aku time tu), Catch me If you Can, Body of Lies and Gangs of New York (the reason i watched this because Cameron Diaz was in it. Hehehe.. But kurang chemistry mereka berdua dlm movie ini sebagai couple, sbb they looked like brother and sister je). Wah byk juga movie Leo that i watched. Kata bukan fan. Leo always acted in good quality films so agak rasa worth it nak drag myself to the cinema. But after watching Shutter Island, I have been converted!!!! Leo, I love yah'!! Hahahaha... Ok I dont wanna reveal too much about this movie. But the plot....very the twisted sampai bile ending rasa macam "Oh mai gooodddddd, aku tertipu....." In a good way lah tapi... Hehehe.. So, go watch it people!!!

(Ok masa banyak-kerja-aku-takde-life dah start. Laters!)

inspiration

Just browsing through some ideas of dais. First of all, my reception I takde merenjis2 nih. Second, pelamin I guna utk duduk kejap masa tgh ada org2 silat2 or budak2 kecik menari zapin (just a plan.Taktau lah boleh di realize kan or not) and utk amik2 gambar. Third, eventhough my reception is gonna be held at a dewan which for sure, has a larger space compared to a rumah, but i just want a simple dais. In black & white. As i was browsing, most of the vendors charge different price for pelamin at home and dewan. Contoh kalau pelamin kat rumah bole dapat around ratus2 je but when it comes to dewan, it was double or even triple of that. Aiyohhhh... Memanglah backdrop tu besau tapi ikut my personal preference, tak payah nk penuh kan or tutup semua ruang2 tu. We can use our creativity to create something yg outstanding without using a whole of 3 panel pelamin (sebagai contoh). Tu yang buat mahal tuh. I have engaged a vendor utk pelamin. Still in discussion level. So far so good. Masih belum finalize the details. Ok people, time for pictures!

Sukelah idea ni. A wall full of our pictures. Tgh fikir how to DIY it. Any ideas how? I want something yg DIY secara cost-effective.

Initial ideas hasil brainstorming me and my vendor.. Something like this lah

suke frame cermin di kiri dn kanan pelamin.

Oh sooo loving then lanterns.. Kalaulah buat malam kan...

Helloooooo Saturday...

Mr.Man and I went to catch a movie. Mula2 torn in between Shutter Island and How To Train Your Dragon. Ada terasa jugak nk buat movie marathon. Tapi nya, impossible sbb got a wedding to go to belah malamnya..Pastu takmolah tibe2 ter-depressed tgk movie heavy cam Shutter Island tu kan. Takpe2. Next time kite buat movie marathon ok wak? Saya nak tengok citer2 kat bawah ni tau wak:

• Ironman 2
• Robin Hood
• The Losers

Ironman and The Losers ada Robert Downey Jr!!!! Yeayy. Suka dia. So far, he managed to amazingly carry out all his characters. Multi-talented lah. Korang dah tgk Tropic Thunder tak?Hahahaha.. Super duper kelakar gile nak mati!!! Australian actor yang aspired nak jadik a black guy. Mantap mantap. Anyhowwww, we decided to just go watch Kick-Ass. Memang sgt lah kick ass ini movie. It reminds me alot pasal Kill Bill. Tapi Kill Bill tu lagi hardcore and gory lah. Quentin Tarantino is a genius.

"With no power comes no responsibility"

Just go watch it people. Jangan beli dvd cetak rompak. Berbaloi baloi tgk kat wayang! Seriously.. This is not the usual superhero movie where the superheros have superpowers. Ni memang lain lah. Please, please, please tgk kayh. Then you know what i'm talking about ni.

Hit Girl - my favourite character in action!!!! Gile super cool budak kecik ni ok. She was like, 13 yrs old? But the mind-blowing stunts, peghhhhh...i tell u.. Love her!

Kick-Ass himself. Kelakar ok watak dia clm citer nih.. Hahahahaha... He was in Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging. Masa tu he was all dreamy and sgt eye candy ok. Sekali koooo dalam citer nih, trasnformasi habes. Part yang masa dia jadi dorky tu mmg jadi.Lawak lawak. Please go watch ok.

Hit Girl is awesooommeeeeee!!

Oklah.... Nak sambung usha maklumat mengenai W-Day. Toodles lovelies!

suka teramat amat sangat

siapa cakap hitam putih tu x lawa?? siapa? siapaaaaa?? seee.... it was very tasteful, simple yet elegant. The black sash on the bride itu sangatlah comel. Saya suka!!

ok ini gambar wajib kena amik masa W-day. Wajib. Wajibbbb!! Mr.Man, do you copy? Hehehe...

Wah wah wah. Semakin ligat blog ini di update. Yelah setelah beberapa bulan terbengkalai, kekurangan kasih sayang.. I shall never abandon you again.Never! Hahahaha..

Happy Friday everyone!!

it's black & white, baby

The theme for my reception has been decided quite early in the initial stages of planning the W-day actually. Secara spontan, mudah dan tepat. Hahaha.. Hitam putih. Hitam itu menawan. Putih itu suci.Or so they say. I wanted something different. Something which is not too romantic or mushy. Weddings are perceived to supposedly be all about romance.After all it is the celebration of love right? Sbb tu kaler2 like pink, soft blues, lilac etc etc are widely used. Those colours are undeniably sangat sangatttt sweet and pwetty. Tapi mungkin bukan selera I kot. Hehehe. And to me it is quite easy to match and arrange things with this black n white theme. Sangat basic. Actually it is an elegant concept. Tak ke? Hehehe.. Baiklaaaaah... I found some stuff that are in black and white. Jatuh cinta lah tau..... Sila cekaut cake yg ada cucuk2 love tu. Naaakkkkkkk!!! Comel ok  comelll... I wish i could have them all on my W-Day.

and finally....

I looooove this hand bouquet!!!!

Aaahh.. The beauty of black n white. Naseb baik memiliki emak berjiwa modern dan memahami. Hehehe.. Kalau tidak, jgn harap..

being a girl

Ok i have a lot to update about my upcoming W-day. Sekarang terasa penurunan semangat nak survey B2B blogs, usha2 portfolio makeup artists, photographers, inspiration of hall decos, pelamin dan segala2 nya. Haihh.. I guess due to recent negative happenongs at work + workload yg never seems to end, terus down semangat ni. Serious lah. My work and this certain person from hell at my dept macam dah suck the fun out of my life. Like a leech!!!! Umum tahu bahawasanya I memang lah takde life sgt pun sejak dua menjak transfer ni kan. But haihh... Dah makin critical dah ni nampak nya. Benci lah. Mr.Man is a busy man nowadays. Takpelah. Demi masa depan keluarga. Wah wah wah. But seriously, nak dating pun cam kena plan betul2 find the time. In a way, it is good jugak as org2 tua kata, tak elok sgt jumpa selalu sebelum kahwin. Oh this reminds me, I will need to plan for a movie date with him. Rasa2 nya adalah nk dekat 2 bulan kot tak catch the latest movie. Ok wow. How immersed i am with my work :p Baiklaaaahhhh. I'll put this in my to-do list now.

Okkkkkk back to W-preparation. So far these are the few items that have been confirmed:

• Makeup for my reception
• Lova Cinta (Contact no: 016-6720 445)
• Deposit paid oredy. Yeayy! Over the phone, she sounds very veryyy friendly.Finally I managed to find a female makeup artist yg within my budget and with nice portfolios.Initially i was torn between Ayang Kamell and Lova. I think Ayang's strength lies in the eye makeup. Cantik2 belaka. But kerana tegar mahu kan female, maka Lova it is :)
• Catering for nikah and my reception
• Nikah (one of the cateres provided by Masjid Wilayah) - Yang ni tiada pilihan. Semoga sedap.
• Reception (Faris Catering, based in Kg. Pandan) - Have tasted the food during a relative's wedding. The thing I like most about Faris ni is (besides the yummy food. Crew2 masak adalah org2 ala2 mamak Penang. Confirm beriyani lazat kan. The owner itself mmg mamak originated frm Penang pun), the worker on duty yang tukang2 kemas and clearkan meja tu, adalah sgt efficient! Sangat cepat bersihkan meja and refill food pun pantas je. Actually I could get a cheaper price from Faris.Seriously. Tapiiiiiii sebab he said my dewan is situated at Level 2, and therefore he needs more workers to angkat2 barang semua.Maka tak dpt lah kurang. Kalau buat kat rumah, boleh. Ok fine.Tapi nak angkat2 barang semua tu bukan suruh naik tangga pun. Ada lif.Macam nk argue di situ. Tapiiiii xpelah. Malas nak pening.
• Venue for my reception
• Dewan Wisma Sejarah
• What more can i say. Hehe. Dewan idaman! As you all know that eventhough I stay in lala-land Rawang, but my reception is gonna be done in KL. Why? Relatives, friends, rakan2 ibu bapa byk yg di KL.Kira mcm nk senangkan perjalanan merekalah.Lagi pun kat rumah, panas.Hehe. Ok betul tak tipu.Kepanasan Rawang dah mcm kat Texas. (Like I've been there lah kan. Hahaha). What i like about this Dewan is, first of all, it's within my budget. Itu yang paling penting. The rental includes aircond + kerusi + meja + PA system. It's fully carpeted and ada mini stage and tirai for the pelamin lagi. Senang. The dewan is not too big or too small. Just nice.Kalau besar sgt mcm dewan DBKL yg kat Jelatek (antara pilihan awal nak buat kat situ sbb mcm baru renovate kan), nak kene fikir deco2 takmo hall nmpk kosong sgt kan. Cost lagi nnt. The person in charge ni sgt2 ah penyabar and kind. Rasa2 nya dah byk kali call sbb tukar date booking.Hehe..
• Dulang hantaran + the deco
• Bought in Nilai. Dah siap deco sumer dah. Tinggal nk letak and susun the barang2

I have mentioned cost a few times kan? Because we are getting married and buying a house all at the same time. Peghhh. Pening x pening? Mr.Man lah yg pening.Hehehe. I sebagai penenang je. But still lah kan. Cannot lah have both secara extravaganza bukan? Lagi pun kami merancang berbulan madu ke suatu tempat yg agak high-cost. Semoga lah menjadi kenyataan. *crossing fingers* I rather spend on honeymoon rathern than wedding yg satu hari je ni.Ok mungkin nk splurge sikit on makeup and  baju. Yg lain tu sederhana2 sahaja xpe. Yang penting nmpk cantik.

Ok lah.. Till the next update. Boss dah panggil mengadap. Toddles! :)
