When Everything Started

I think we have established that I’ll be getting married this year. InsyaAllah. Well, today marks the day I officially start sharing about the ups and downs of being my own wedding planner. So people, get ready to learn from my mistakes and appreciate my success. InsyaAllah. :)

Not too long after I knew my Darling, he kinda (playfully) proposed to me. We were in the car, on the way back from playing tennis.

Darling : Cayang ku, bila kita nk berkahwin? (giggles)
Me : Tak tahu la cayang ku. Saya tak kisah. I can wait.
Darling : Tapikan cayang ku, saya sudah tidak dapat tunggu la. Saya sudah tidak sabar.
Me : Hahaha.

And that was when everything started to turn on to a more serious note when we talked about marriage. :)

After much discussion, on the 6th of November 2008, the rombongan merisik came over to Penang. We had a simple kenduri just to welcome my Darling and his entourage from Seremban. I was getting ready in Neeta’s room when I saw the merisik party on their way, heading towards my house. Berpeluh pulak ttiba. All of a sudden I felt like there was not enough oxygen in the room. I was excited at first, but when I saw them coming, I became nervous. Mak sgt nervous u ol. Nasib baik la tak mekap. Kalau tak, abis hasil kerja mekap artis ku. Anyway, after the brief discussion, everything was settled and agreed upon. Alhamdulillah. Baru la yours truly can actually breathe normally. Mind you, during the whole process, I was forbidden to go downstairs and show my face. Aku adalah ditinggalkn di atas seorg diri wondering bkn2. :p Until after everything was settled, my Darling’s grandfather requested to see me. That was the first time I saw him. Hehe. Ketakutan jugak actually. Tp pastu mcm lega sbb dh selesai satu perkara. And it went really well.

But, little did I know what’s in store for me after the ending of that little episode. Don’t worry, it’s nothing bad, just the challenges of working in good old Bintulu and planning a wedding in Penang and KL. Memenatkan ok. But nevermind, will blab about that later. Meanwhile, these are the only pics I have to remind me of the day when it all really started. Enjoy peeps.
