My wedding




Counting the days, its been almost two months since I was married. And I still counting the days for our wedding ^^. People has been asking me the same question, “Aren’t you nervous for your big day?!” Well, I would say “NO!”. Somehow I don’t feel nervous at all. My hubby and I are together for short period of time but we somehow seem like we had known for years. And the fact that we are married, and our wedding is coming in 4 months time do not affect us. Sounds bad! But the true fact is, we are already ‘married’ when we are together. The togetherness and connection we have had bonded us since the first day we are together. As our wedding date getting nearer, I do feel a little nervous, as in I would want to appear to be his most beautiful bride, his wife and his soulmate. I mean, who doesn’t want to be that for their partner? This post is more like a diary to me..

His coming into my life has completely change my life. We never expect to be together. Our age gap is one of the biggest obstacles for most couples out there, but, somehow, this is not an obstacle for us. True love is not about judging anything or putting one whole list of criteria to be your partner. There is no right or wrong about love. We love each other, and we are happy together. We are glad that we had chosen each other. My hubby always says, “If time revert and if I had to choose again, I will still stick to my choice of being with you”. And if this question is thrown to me, I will answer the same too. Now, how he changed my life? I used to be a very naive girl (now still a little), stubborn and do not take people’s advice. To me, everyone is angel and no demon in this world. Everything is good and perfect. But my hubby had taught me many things and made me more mature now. He is a good analyst and what he said or analyse are 99.99% true. Last time I listened to what he said, but when I did not take his advice, I had to face the music myself. Poor thing. Also, what my hubby taught me had made me think more logically and learn to be smart at work.
Next, my hubby made my life more cheerful as he loves to make silly faces to make me laugh. One thing he can always make me smile is being himself. =) There is always one side of him that I really love. For being a loving, caring, protective and supportive husband. Nobody is perfect. My hubby is not perfect but I love him as himself.

Ok, now lets talk of something more intense. As you know, my wedding is on 16.9.2013 which is on Malaysia Day! Yahoo! I heard and saw many people plan a lot for their wedding. Hmmn, somehow we both did not plan anything for the wedding. LOL. My parents were the one doing the full planning all the time! OMG. Bad daughter. I want a simple and memorable wedding, whereby it is cost effective and special. The thing that I always wanted for my wedding is to be colorful. Previously I saw people use balloons from ‘Up’ movie for their wedding and I found that idea is very refreshing. Although this theme was used by others, but for my wedding, I also want the hall to be decorated with colorful balloons. I had even set a theme for my wedding, which is colorful, whereby my ‘sisters’ have to dress up with different color. Excited! My girls will looks charming that day!
   
Next, comes the pre-wedding photo shoot. Many people spent a lot for pre-wedding photo because most of them choose to take outdoor pictures whereby it WILL definitely cost more. You got to pay for the transportation, food, drink, tol, petrol (if need to travel far) and etc. For my pre-wedding photo shoot, we have decided to take studio photo. Now, just to share some experience for choose which bridal shop, always remember to check out a few shops, just for you to do some comparison of what packages they can offer to accommodate your needs and budget. From what we know, most bridal shops can offer roughly the same items or services, but the price can be different depending on what extra services or items included in it. The bridal shop I picked was purely based on my first feeling with each bridal shop. What I love about the bridal shop I picked is that the sales person there did not force us to decide on their offer, another thing is their computer designs for the wedding album is simple but it enhances the pictures. Some bridal shop does have many ‘background’ for their studio photo shoot. For eg, they use tables, chairs, sofa, windows, piano, and etc. But this bridal shop I picked mostly uses plain background for their pictures and with the added designs, the pictures looks so special. Simple but nice!

Another thing my friend suggested for my wedding photo shoot is to try Korean wedding style. I found that their wedding concept is really cute and the pictures mostly use good lighting and their pictures are more natural and alive! I have requested the bridal shop to do this style for my photo shoot. Lets just see how will be their reply ^^



As for other part of the wedding, I shall update more next time!

Another chapter of life

It's been really really ages since I last posted on my blog.

For the past few months, many things have changed me and I am grateful for the changes that I had faced through. They make me more mature, tougher and much more calm in handling things and difficulties.

I broke up with my ex BF of 5 years plus 3 months ago. The ending was pretty painful for him and also for my family. Honestly, I do miss him. Breaking up doesn't mean totally forget about him. I just removed all this photo from my blog. When I look into the pictures, I felt like I am looking at a stranger. WTH! I sound like I am heartless and no feelings. Honest word, when we broke up I do feel pain because I choose to let go of him, set myself free and accept a new love. I fall in love with another man and I have decided to let my ex go. People who knew us would think this is a waste as we had been together for so many years and the news of breaking up was totally unacceptable for them. My parents especially. But anyway, it ended with bad experience. I do hope he is doing alright now. No harm worrying my ex right? Anyhow he is still a friend to me =)

Ending a relationship and jumping into a brand new relationship is also unacceptable for alot of people out there. My colleagues and even my family. But anyhow, my bf now convinced them with his sincerity and on the same day itself after he met them, they waive green light and allow us to be together. ^^

My new relationship is a speedy relationship. Things just progress so quickly until we have decided to get married. Finding someone who is tele, having mutual understanding and able to support us when we are at the weakest time is not easy. I have found him. We just knew for few months, but the feeling is like as if we have known for ages. The feelings cannot be explained. The feeling is so strong that makes us wanna be closer together and seal the bond and get married. Furthermore, my family loves him so so much and they give their blessings for us. =)

We knew for approximately about 7 months now. But we have sealed our bond with marriage last week. With my parents and friends as our witnesses.  I must say that moment was the happiest of all. I felt like, nervous at the same time happy for being someone's wife.. Ok, let me share my experience registering my marriage...Well, first of all we must apply marriage from Jabatan Pendaftaran Negara (JPN). I bet many people don't know that to register marriage from JPN is not easy, especially when you and your partner are from different state. Like me and my hubby. He is from JB while I am from Ipoh. To apply for marriage, the application forms have to be sent back to the respective state's JPN, if we apply at any JPN. For eg, if we apply at Ipoh, he has to send the forms back to JB JPN, and vice versa. Kind of tedious right? But anyway, we applied our marriage with another method, which is via Thean Hou Temple (near Midvalley), whereby we can apply our marriage at any JPN, and then we can go to the temple and submit our forms, and get que for the ceremony and they will send the forms to our respective JPN for us. All we have to do is to pay slightly more, which we think is better and faster. Save all the hassles ^^

Okay, so we registered our marriage at Thean Hour Temple on 17th March 2013. =) My friends came and they took many lovely photos for our ROM. Before they came, we completed the ceremony in just 5 minutes. I guess you all don't know that after entering the room for the ceremony, all we did was signing the paper, saying "Yes, I do", and exchanges rings, take few pictures and we are done! The whole ceremony was only 5 minutes!!! Fast, simple and straight to the point! So, I would say, the temple place is really a good place for ROM, just slightly more expensive but we get things done quick and easy! Another credit is, the place is beautiful for pictures!

Eat and Eat

Hello lovely readers. So long since the last time I updated! Sorry for that! One thing has changed about me. I've GAINED weight. Shit! Thanks to eating and eating and eating. Lately been eating a lot. I think I ate about 6 times a day. OMG..Fat..sobz. See how chubby my face now?


Let me share the yummy yummy food I ate




Hehe.. the fruit jelly I made myself! Yummy yummy. Aside from food, I also continue my DIY plan by making presents for my besty! I drew and colored the flowers. Out of the sudden I wanted to paint so much! 


Btw, let me update a little about my working life. I'm finally confirmed by PT. After confirmation, I am no longer trainee. I've decided to stay at Planning department as Planning Assistant Executive. Apart from that, salary increment is normal =) How much I can't reveal here but I am satisfied with the increment! My journey in PT does not just stop here. Since my HOD has resigned and another planner was promoted to be the HOD. after the promotion, many changes was done and I've come to handle much more difficult counters/customers/marketing personals. Haiz. However, I always believe that if we manage time well, do properly, then it won't be a problem. =) I must have faith in myself right? 

Anyway, so long for this time. Take good care

Love,
Grace
