i ish not happy! D:

Things that have made me stressed out lately:

1. getting fat. i like gaining weight, but hate those flabs under the chin and tummy!
2. no money. (THE MOST EVIL THING!)
3. wedding invitation for solemnization still not yet done.
4. there is no news about my wedding attires (3 of them).
5. airplane tickets has been sold out and super expensive so i don't know how to go to Shah Alam to do my wedding dresses fitting. i should be there 2 weeks before 10/10.
6. grandma insisted to have make-up changes according to different attires for Berlulut session. more make-up means more $$ to burn!
7. shortage of wedding favours.
8. couldn't find videographers since i don't have money!
9. my room's deck renovation + electrical stuff have not start yet.

There are other stuff as well, but it felt like...to emo-wrecking to type. =_=
90% of the problems came from lack of money. Right now, i don't even have some to fill the fuel. *Sigh* Shit happens...

Oh my...where can i get money? T_T
Ya Allah...tolonglah hambamu yang daif ini!

ADOI!!!

Aku semakin GUMUKKKK!!!
Naik 4 kilo! D:



ARRRGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Mission : Place & Invitation Card

All right...
The place for the reception has been confirmed. :)
That was quite a release...phew!
Well, even though i heard lots of complaints about the place e.g. "You get what you paid", i do HOPE for the best for my big day. InsyaAllah...

Included in the package was invitation cards...i initially wanted to DIY the cards myself, but since they came in free so i just picked the most descent one that i can find in the *free template* section from Banana Greetings. In black colour card with silver hot stamping...the usual, anywhere-you-can-find invitation card in Malaysia i must say. :/

Right now i'm still looking for cheaper cards for my Solemnization Day.
Yes,the DIY mission is still on the radar, but grandma and mom wanted things that easily being produced a.k.a. you just pay and wait. So what should i do? i wanted things to be out right without spending more money. *sigh*

Anyway, i just got back from watching 'The Expendables' and before that, i visited Shafiq's mom at the Cancer Unit in Sarawak General Hospital. i really hope that she'll be fine soon!
And the movie was AWESOME!!

Place Hunting

Phew~!
Mom took 2 days off from work just to settle some stuff and accompanied me to search for reception hall/banquet.

Ann promoted me to one of her friend's wedding package; place located at the new food court/KFC at Demak Jaya area, food pricing per pax was good at RM12.50, including free Pelamin (Wedding Dais), P.A. system, and karaoke.

So we went to see the person-in-charge/owner this morning. He explained that the RM12.50 per pax promotion is over because of the goods' high price and they barely can get profits with that promotion price. So they offered RM14 per pax.
The place itself was kinda empty and dull as the daughter said it's still under renovation process for Ramadhan Buka Puasa restaurant. So i can't say much or visualise how the place look like when it's fully furnished for a wedding reception.
Right now just waiting for Ann to post up some pics for me and mom to see. :)
The owner's daughter will contact me tomorrow (i mean later today xD) to explain more stuff.

Another place that we went to was the Penview Hotel. They have this RM200 per table Malay Wedding promotion including the MC, P.A. system, karaoke, kompang, dummy cake, invitation cards, complimentary room, etc... Quite higher than the first package, but somehow if you add up everything, it's kinda worth it. But then, i need to find people to do my wedding dais. Let say, wedding dais for RM1.5k (no more budget for higher than that.T_T). Other than that, there were some bad issues regarding the banquet services as per told by my friends who attended the functions there every year (i don't know much since i only been there once for David's wedding!), so i told the manager about it. He apologized and agreed that there have been some problems with that since some of the workers are part-timers and amateurs. He said that he will try to overcome the matters. And i jokingly said that i will invite him to my reception so he can watch over the banquet staff. :P Mom too, agree that this place is quite convenient in case my sister Mi~ya gotten tired sitting on the wheelchair, she can go back and rest at the hotel room. And we can prepare clothes and makeup before the event too!

Well, actually either one is okay. As long as it is comfortable, free from the rain, and fit the budget. :)

Gosh...the mosquitoes are killing me... gahhh!!!
i better sleep now! i have tomorrow's plan changing. We're supposed to go to the polyclinic for HIV test, and meeting up Yabuki's wedding dais planner. But me and Yabuki are going to drive to Lingga (near Sri Aman) for Nizam's wedding! XD

Wedding Ring

Finally bought my wedding ring. :)

No, it's not my dream-wedding-ring though. Too bad. :/

Vivienne Westwood Mayfair ring - £205.00

Last week me and Yabuki made the decision to end our rings hunt and decided to buy from Habib Jewels The Spring; same place where we bought my Engagement Ring before. Of course, we picked up the Sales day. :P Ah, it's so hard to find black opal or onyx rings. There weren't any. :(

First, we went to choose for his wedding band...9k gold ones (suasa) as Muslim guys shouldn't be wearing higher percentage of gold in any jewellery. Well, since few past months, i was eyeing on this certain ring which i called 'Transformers' ring (i don't know why i named it that), it has nice designer touch, but there's no smaller size for Yabuki's finger. So dayuumm!! lol.

So, ader la...have to pejam mata pilih, picked on of the latest design, simple and have small diamond in the centre. There were 55% discount, so i got his for below RM1k. :)

Takpe busyukkk! Mun ada rezeki, kelak 'upgrade' for anniversary, okeh? ♥

Then, my turn pulak. The sales promoter terus pilihkan. Actually i wanted a wedding band that compliments with my Engagement ring if worn together, but, too expensive since wedding band would look nice if there's a lot of diamonds on it. A plain wedding band with no diamonds will make orang tua madah, "gila juak kedekut laki nya tok merik cincin kosong!". So yeah. :/

Ada la a few nice kerawang-kerawang type diamond rings - definitely me and makcik-makcik will love them, but the promoter said that for wedding, it would be a good investment and special if we buy certified diamond + different white gold casing. Made sense yeah, but no kerawang for me. Cuz the ring is just simple, and almost look alike with my engagement ring but more shinier. LOL.

Well, the ring + casing is quite over the budget, but Yabuki asked, "You want that? Ambiklah!", and i was like, "Biar benar miak tok? O_O", and he looked convincing enough, so i took it. Luckily got discount. i don't think i'd be able to get it with the real price. XD

Nya sik puas ati sik dpt nangga nombor dlm diamond ya.

So yeah...very out of my Rock/Gothic taste actually, but quite pretty princessy feeling to it. Hehe.

Here's my ring:

Kehkehkeh~~ just a teaser! Over exposed from my cam-phone. ^^;;

Anyway, Alhamdulillah...one of the hunt already over, so next hunt please!

Tick Tock Tick Tock...

Wow...realise it or not...it's only 75 days left for the big day!

Damn it...too many things that haven't been done!

Budget semakin lari. D: RAAWWWRRRR!!!! *bridezilla mode*

Make Up

All brides want to look extraordinary gorgeous on their wedding day. XD

So, i have been hunting for Makeup Artistes since last year.

But most of the 'super kacak make-up' ones are located in the West Malaysia, so aku cuma boleh gigit jari. Hahaha~~

My favourite would be Lova Cinta...her touches are super pretty! Still boleh nampak your natural face without nampak 'cakey' or tebal. Gosh~! How i wish i can appoint her to do my wedding make-up! But since my budget tak cukup nak tanggung transportation and accomodation dier from KL to Kuching, so...takpe la... ;_;

But for those of you who wants her 'magic hand', you can try to find her in Facebook by the name 'Lova Cinta'. ^^

But don't fret Kuching-ian. There are still talented make-up artistes in Kuching as well.

i've gotten mine... but belum cuba the trial make-up lagi. My MUA would be Manja or some called her Julia. She'll be doing my make-up for Akad Nikah, berlulut, and 2 of the receptions.

Her wedding make-up fees:

+ Trial - RM150

+ Akad Nikah - RM200

+ Berlulut (same day as akad nikah) - RM50 (over the earlier make-up)

+ Sanding - RM350 (including groom's make-up)

As for Akad Nikah, i wanted it to be simple, and yes, Manja will be wearing gloves for that. *winks*

Since i need to pay for the trial make-up, maybe i should do so for my pre-wedding shooting...so my money sik membazir... tol sik? :P

Manja also recommended 3 of her friends doing the Pelamin. However, only one responded and i assumed that the other 2 is not interested with little poor bride like me, heh. So, i just appointed the responded one named Nasa to do Yabuki's Arabian pelamin at his house. :)

i might use Nasa's pelamin again for my reception too. Her pelamins will be worked within your budget, so don't be afraid to contact him, yea?

Just leave me your message here if you want their contact number. ^^

Edited:

Julia Manja is not my make-up artist for all of my events. She betrayed our deal and did not even show up. Attitude problem...Some of her friends told me that somebody 'guna-gunakan' her and therefore she was sick. That made me feel pity for her. But one of bestie told my friend that she was actually had problems with the boyfriend. Too bad then...So not professional! :( DEFINITELY NOT RECOMMENDED.
