Bitten by the sentimental bug

as mum & i shifted around our furnitures like musical chairs...now in my room lies her double bed. a new reality is inchin in bit by bit...i'm gonna miss my "ME" space

and most of all, the thing i hold dear...my 80s SONY boombox..i really don't wanna throw it away..but it's just a matter of days. the volume control is already cranky, the top bit of the antenna is broken but it served the family & me well for the past years growin along with me, thru my childhood, thru my adolescence & now even, once in awhile, servin up chillout music from Lush99.5fm or soothin piano pieces from 96.3fm.

well i guess i have to juz move along with the changes & look forward to creating a "WE" space for myself & dearest hubby-to-be.

for now, my last nites of bachelorettehood shall be spent lyin next to my mum, in her bed in my room...

That Hawaiian Nite

Aloha!

The theme for mesye's company D&D was Hawaiian Night, so i stuck a huge flower in my hair & wore a tropical green dress to go with the theme...and 2 unexpected things happened. Weirdness but i should somewhat feel complimented.

First was...a Mat Cisco tried to hit on me la when I was waitin impatiently for a cab. I was really taken aback cos it is very rare for such a thing to happen to me. Sanggup dia u-turn to ask if he could get to know me. But..eck i turned him down flat, i can feel his hope shattered right there. I said no thank u, i'm engaged, showed my bling and walked away. While in the cab moments later, i was thinkin..gosh he must have thot i'm such an arrogant bitch or somethin..eeps!! Thank u for the compliment eh Mat Cisco, i should have been more polite but sorry, i was too shocked to think of somethin nice to say at the same time i dun wanna give a wrong idea.

So much for bein a Hawaiian Nite, much performances were very hmm Asian-inspired. Was mindin my food, had lil chats with Iyuan n laughin at the antics of people on the stage when the MC went around the floor lookin for best dressed women nominations. Was very happy and cheered on Lina, one of the gals I noe from the company who shared the same table with me when she was picked out by the MC but then the next thing I noe, I was also picked for best dressed candidate. EHH?? there were like 6 or 7 of us and we had to go on stage & claim our prize by dancing..to Wondergirls' Nobody. Alamakkk!! tis has never happened to me before la & puttin me in the spotlight like that after soo long of not bein on stage or dancin, my heart was in my mouth.Gedebak gedebuk man! And Iyuan came up front row to capture pics/vids..lagi Stress! Felt so freaky, anyhow whack...i didn't win..hahah! But Lina won! Deservingly...congrats!

Weird la...is there somethin different abt my look lately? Is it the  "darah manis" symptom of a bride-to-be? Hmmm...

Anyways week end is here again! Enjoy it!

CHEERS~

 

A year of T-Phase

u & me
happy anniversary
may our journey into marriage be smooth & wonderful!
tick tock tick tock!

09/10/11/10/09: Kak Shikin & Abg Raseid's Wedding

Alhamdulillah all went smoothly! I totally enjoyed spendin time with cuzzins, especially those who came back to SG after so so long & meetin my latest niece, lil Qaisara! With Iyuan helpin out on the nikah day, a silat by my first niece, a lil impromptu Solawat & Karaoke as well as many photo snappings on the sanding day, i truly truly enjoyed myself very much! Welcome to the family, Abg Raseid!

Raya with a Twist

Two childhood friends berhari raya, scadinavian style

Peace be upon the Prophet, Bliss be upon the Newlyweds

A lil impromptu recitation of Solawat Alamiah (initially thot it was Badariah) by the family at Kak Shikin's wedding. Brought tears to some of my relatives' eyes, put tranquility into my lil heart.

Let there be blessings upon us all...Amin

Exactly 1 month to go!!
