A trip to the Mega Wedding Expo.

back to back night shifts is honestly killing me. but i guess i rather do continuous night shifts because it won't really disrupt my body clock. heh~ besides i dread doing morning shifts when there are so many extra manpower around because that'll only mean i have to always pretend to be busy or look for things to do. sometimes it's really just swatting flies. do i love my job? yes ... and no ... there are days where i just want to stay at home sleep and work on my stickers lol

took leave the other day to bring my parents to the Mega Wedding Expo (besides, it was my morning shift). Mawarprada took part in the event so might as well drop by to make the balance payment lah kan. And since it wasn't really crowded manage to have a chit chat with Kak Liza, the mak andam. The funny part was, the people from the opposite booth was already eyeing on me and my mom because we sat down not for even half an hour and i took out the cash to make the balance payment for the deposit. They must've been puzzled laa kan? But .. padahal2. hehe

So basically my wedding is already settled, except for bedroom deco, henna & the wedding invitations. Mom enquired Kak Liza & Kak Mar to also help us do the bedroom deco but they were hesitant to give us a quotation. They insisted that the bedroom deco can be DIY-ed and it'll be much cheaper than engaging a vendor to do so. Kak Liza started dropping ideas for me and even offered to lend me the cloths if i decide on a tiffany theme.

ah. colors. i've been bad at colors since like foreevvaaaaah. so i have to slowly look through people's wedding pictures and look at what colors is nice.

Was slowly browsing through MWG facebook and realized ... MY COLLEAGUE ENGAGED MAWARPRADA FOR HIS WEDDING. which was like, 3 years back i think? Maybe more because I was still with that idiot. The picture below is of his wedding setup. The MPH was quite big in my opinion thus the tables and chairs are quite spaced out.

Of course i'll be blogging about Mawarprada first lah kan so the pictures are all of their works. The color combination is niceeeeeee. Blue, violet(???), purple, white. I like the dangling balls (okay sounds crude) and the dome buttttt... it's gonna be quite impossible i guess since i'm holding my wedding at the void deck. sooo prolly a pass.

I wish my void deck is as spacious as this. It is spacious but this picture is more spacious! MEH~

So many choices. So confused! People are telling me to stop thinking of the deco and think of the baju nikah sanding and the outfits for the families and bridesmaids. But when I told them we'll go kain shopping next month, they asked me what colors am i choosing for my deco? SAY WHAAT?

Told my mom that the colors that the families will be wearing have to be STRICTLY OF THE SAME COLOR. no two shades darker or lighter. Mom's side will be wearing a lighter shade and dad's side will be a darker tone. What color have yet to be decided lah. Must consult some people regards to the deco colors if not my family members will end up looking like walking curtains HAHAHHAHA

Basically that's just it. Didn't lookout for any other vendors because I'm pretty much done with the major stuffs. Hopped over to the Isetan expo sale hoping to shop but it was so disappointing. Waiting for John Little expo sale next!

To be honest my heart's a little broken right now and i'll have to brainstorm of other ideas, and i seriously hate the waiting game. More about that soon!

4 more hours till end of shift. jiayou!

Guess who's back?

10 days late but ... HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY!!!

Alot has happened of late. Argued too much, cried too much. But all is well now, alhamdulillah. Le fiancé got into a not-so-minor accident last month, and it kinda woke us up quite a fair bit. Thankful (but not so thankful) that he managed to escape with several patches of abrasions and deep wounds, and is all well on the road to recovery.

Been keeping myself quiet of late. Avoiding people who are toxic to my emotional health. Went to see the doctor about my sleeping problem, and how my mood is always affecting F most times. I should have gone to the doctor earlier and not let things dragged. Because I believed that I could handle the problems on my own when in actual fact I needed that extra help.

Round two of anti-depressants and hello to more counselling sessions. I DREAD COUNSELLING SESSIONS PLEASE. Because I'm not someone who verbally expresses herself easily, unless I'm very angry and you drive me up against the wall. I shall not elaborate on this now. I shall not even explain to people because well, most of them will only understand up to their own level of understanding. Okay does this even make sense? An example would be like ... "sure or not you depressed? But you look okay le..." heh. You don't have to ground yourself in your room just to be depressed okay. Some people just hide it better than others.

Anywayyyyy ...

I'm down to 10 months to the big day. People have been asking about my wedding preparations and I will always say .... I HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING YET. Yes, not a single preparation, or recce on the deco or which vendors i want! And I am not even in bridezilla mode. And I'm still cool with things, because I'm just weird like that. hehehe

My parents are more excited about the wedding than me. Excuse me, I nak kahwin ke you all yang nak kahwin eh? Please eh, stop it ehh! Initially wanted to just hold a small 500pax wedding because I don't have much relatives but nooo. Ayah says he wants to invite the whole Bukomites population whom he knows. Please tell me it's the WHOLE bukom eh not just his PU to justify for 1000pax invitations.

We went over to Mawarprada Wedding Gallery to (finally) place a deposit and block the dates. Glad that our slot is still available because November is fully packed! Now I hope that I can still find vendors to fill in the services that isn't included in Mawarprada's package.

Why Mawarprada?

1st - It HAD been the vendor I was eyeing for ever since I was still with the ex. Loved their deco. Though I know other vendors prolly can do better. BUT I STILL LOVED THEM. Thanks to sara for intro-ing MWG MANY YEARS BACK i don't remember when but i think back in 2011? 2012?
2nd - F is somehow related to Mawarprada. Sooooooo, it's gonna be easier to liaise lah kan!

Initially I was against the idea of F's mom wanting to engage their own relative to handle his wedding event. Because from "past experiences", sedara selalu makan sedara. Before wedding say this price, then during wedding step "got shortage, tak cukup ni tak cukup tu" then after wedding need to top up several thousand more. Eh you think money can magically drop from the sky?

But when I found out that F's relatives is the boss of Mawarprada, I WAS ELATED I TELL YOU. F obviously had no idea of Mawarprada or it's existence (biasa lah typical guys mana nak take note of these things kan), and I told F, OKAY GO! BOLEH! CAN ENGAGE YOUR RELATIVE!

I will blog more about the vendors that I had met soon (if i tak malas). Work is going to be a bitch soon for my shift because I have to cover for my colleague who's going for an operation. And work is quite a bitch now because I have to train my team mate, not that I do NOT want to train her but .... well, no comments lah kan.

Anyway me & F had accomplished our 2015 goals. Belanja satu gambar je ok?

traded in his super 4 for a rabbit! and traded in my gixxer for a fz1s. SO EXCITED TO HAVE THEM NEXT TO MY PELAMIN SOON!!!

ok good night.
