It's gonna be May (me)

Image
Salam Alaikum! Hehehe. catchy eyyy. Yes, it's first of May and tick tock, it's like less than 4 months till the day. I'm not nervous nor concern, maybe when bulan puasa and raya, I should be scared kot (and emo coz it's my last time to raya as a single lady, bawah ketiak my parents) coz there's so many changes, major life changes about myself and I don't know where to begin with. Like waking up as early as 4.30am(!!) and yes, he wakes up 4.30am every single day. I cannot T_T hahah. okaylah, limit2 5.30am bangun  nak buat sarapan and makanan tengah hari and yes, he expects me to cook so I can't say no or malas-malas. A good wife is to keep his belly full. Another reason is because he keeps on eating takeaways so he got so fed up no home cooked food and he doesn't cook like a daily basis, so yeah. I should start making daily routines of what to cook every single day, giving tips to readers like BTBs or working moms eh? That should be my next post insyaA

Nurie Catering

Image
Bismillah! Assalamualaikum everyone! Actually I dah lame book my caterer but I dont have the time to blog about it until now. Busy pasal keje. heheheh Okay so, kite dah booked Nurie one year mark from my wedding but Cik Nor was very chillax person. She said she havent prepared 2015 punye packages after raye. hahah. cute lah cik!  So when my cousin's wedding, we approached her again and she asked us to make an appointment in March or April and so we we did. She is the most honest person in catering and she will not extra charge you, she tambah barang (chairs and tables coz our family is very big) for us. And she asked us how's our budget whether nak lavish2 ke nak simple2. I'm very simple and pragmatic, tak suke bende so complicated and too lavish. I learned from my cousin, simplicity is the best which is betul coz you wont really pening kepala nak up to standard or nak the latest design. Memang kahwin cume sekali but it doesn't mean that you have to fini

So many things to learn and so many opportunities here. To compare with my previous job, of course there's like long list of things I would like to share but first of all what is SOTA? SOTA or School of the Arts was established in 2008 and was the first per-tertiary arts school in Singapore. It was initiated by Ministry of Information, Communication and the Arts and now took over by Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY). It is an independent scho

What personality are you?

Bismillah. I will like to share with you guys regarding your characteristics. During the kursus rumahtangga also we did go through this session where we get to know more about ourselves. But the kursus rumahtangga one is just on the surface and there's 4 absolute types which you cant you cant interlap. Coz humans are not defined as 1 state, even twins have different needs and personalities. I love this test as it has 16 personalities which combines with each other and having it as unique. As for me, I'm an ESTJ . Mostly it covers my personality. Why do we need to know all this? It is not for us to infer and say, hey that's me but more to our spouses as they will be for the first time ever, staying with you and have to be with you like 24/7. So this will prepare them before getting a shock of their lives "ini ke bini aku? perangai nauzubillah. dulu time steady/tunang tak mcm ni pun". Hey, ingat perempuan je yg ade expectations, lelaki pun but they wont say it

#WeddingDrama: Khatam Quran

Assalamualaikum Sorry I've been busy like 24/7 ever since I started new job at SOTA. back to back events and now, I'm down with flu. Remember that time, i have target with my ustazah to do the majlis Khatam Quran the night before my nikah? Well, it turns out that my ustazah couldn't make it on Friday nights as they will have majlis halaqqah with masyaikh. She only mentioned that if I really want it on Friday, it will be from 6pm till mghrib. She asked me whether can we have it on Saturday morning before my nikah? Hopes and dreams seems to fall apart, I'm already halfway through and there's so much time, effort and money wasted to know that I can't have it on Friday night. I'm trying to sooth myself with another plan. Hopefully my aunts can help me with the majlis Khatam Quran. I'll just need to finish up my recitation before my wedding, that's all. The khatam can come later with my ustazah. Why? 1- Friday at 6pm till maghrib is the most bu

Buying of La รฉtoffe (The Fabric) for my wedding dress!!!

Image
At first, I only thought that I want to get the baju nikah sewn by my friend's sister because my cousin,  Ira , was getting married and I didn't know that if she's taking engagement/wedding dress orders. But after discussing, she said she could insyaAllah and help me a lot with the design and fabrics. We went to Arab St on 4th March to discuss about the concept, the design and the fabrics that I want. I only know the fabrics like satin, chiffon, silk, lace, organza and cotton. Other than that, I'm a noob. haha. So dah happy2 and I have decided on what I want for my baju kan, we went to hunt for fabrics. I had no budget and specific lace or colour. If I like it, I buy it. I went crazy at Sharavan as they provide varieties of songkets!!! I love songket, I ni orang lama and now, songket comes in different2 colours and the tenunan have multiple coulours instead of the normal gold and silver tenunan. But, there's always drama to it. After we bought it, we went to t

Counting days to this!!! MasyaAllah, this is too beautiful!! pic.twitter.com/IMXZmbJR46 — Hafizah Aw (◕‿◕✿) (@fizalicious) March 25, 2015 WE'VE BOOKED OUR HONEYMOON! It wasn't that hard as my fiance and I didn't matter where we want to go or specifically where he wanted to go. We are not very fussy and we came to conclusion that we wanted to go somewhere near. Coz we wanna save up money for.......cannot tell uh. Nati dah takde excitement. Let's put it as a bigger project for now. We want to spend the best of our honeymoon coz it is the only time that we are alone coz both my house and his house are occupied with our family members. Sape nak teka where it is? Nah, clue paling obvious! Hehehe Since it is a tropical island, there wasn't any hassle to pack our clothing and I've already planned what to wear on a beach holiday. I've yet to buy luggage bags. I don't know if I want to get 1 big one or 2 normal size bags. Coz to think of
