DIFFERENT?? how??
well, i'm not sure what it means by the term "darah manis" (sweet blood) cos apparently it never crosssed my brain cell before... but all i know is that it refers to the person that just got engaged kot... i dun't understand it cos for me the term was widely used in the olden days but still, is it still relevant today?? when i got back to work last tuesday, a few of my office mates kept teasing me and still keep teasing me until this morning about darah manis thingy...i mean, do i look any different??? i don't feel different at all...honestly i don't ok..my blood is not the sweet type but it's actually type B positive lahh...adoi!
hmm,.. i guess i'm not used to the new me just yet.. only when many of my friends keep giving me the full of meaning's smlie then only i realise i better get used to the title... i mean i still call him my boyfriend not fiance and i feel a bit funny to call him fiance...hahah...we're still 2 individuals yang sama...nothing much different... and ohh, i think that student was not the only one asked me wheter i got married last weekend or not but many of my previous students that i bumped into kept asking the same thing.. i mean what the heck...i thought i was really quite about my engagement but apparently,..the news spread even amongst students too..hahah...i thought nobody gave a damn about it...but they did...hahah.. rasa macam disayangi pulak bila orang amik tahu tentang kita,kan!! *wink*
apa pun kan...i feel so happy now..happy sangat..Alhamdulilah...TQ to all of friends who wrote me a lot of personal message on my facebook and the well wishes and all,..i really appreciate that ok..
yours truly,

wo oh ooh oh oh ooh oh oh ooh oh oh oh ( by Beyonce : Single Lady)
well these lyrics seem to be on my head since i woke up today...hahah...well folks! it's getting near.. a few more days to go and i'm officially hold a title as someone's fiance..hihi... so far, i have recieved a word of advice from a really good office mate..she said that i should never keep it a secret about my engagement cos it's inappropriate sebab kak lin kata,.. in our religion it's a sin if kita ganggu tunang orang.. well not that i have always been disturbed by a lot of men here.. tapi ada la sikit cita lama yang quite amusing and i don't intend to share it here...and of couse recently there is a friend whom i know for a short period of time, suddently poured all his isi hati towards me and u can imagine i was shocked and speechless...i didn't know how to respond but at the same time i wanted that person to feel comfortable and it was okay to let it al out...hmm, i pretty satisfied of the way i handled the situation and kept my cool...i had to explain to that person that i'm single but not available...and though, i think i will lost the friendship with that person, yet again... i just hope that the friendship will never ends... tak pa lah...cemana pun kan..janji kita hepi!! ( macam lirik lagu Amy Mastura tu...)
*wink*
i'm off to Penang today after work...i still have 2 days to prepare everything that i should for the day...hukhukhuk...sabar2...semuanya akan okay...

...
i just want to get over with it already and move on by focussing on what i want to achieve for our wedding next... we have to work hard so that we get all that we want, rite! these days, we take matters in own hand.. and cannot be too dependent on others too much..and money is always the obsticle for many peole... but i don't want to blame money as the big issue for not achiving my goal cos i believe there's so many ways to overcome that aspect...i do not want to be a bride that relies 100% on my future husband to finance our wedding on his own.. and i definitely do not want to trouble anybody from my family also... so, i really have to plan the wedding as best as i can so that i can have my dream wedding...i want to have my dream wedding...i want it so bad if i give guys the gory details of it u might puke!! but i would like to make it clear that i do not have a dream of a lavish & extravagant wedding cos it's not me...i just want it to be beautiful..that's all
to my good friends Anna & CT i really appreciate your calming words and advise...i really need those!
LEGA
i'm so very busy with classes and it's already towards the end of semester...so definitely banyak benda nak buat...rasa tak menang tangan...datelines after datelines and piles and piles of work load...arghhhhh...doremon help!!!
yet, i consider today is quite a good day cos i thought i was gonna be in mess...but everything seems to fall into place...lega sangat!
owh,. i just check my status as pembayar PTPTN wheter i'm under their blacklister or not...i thought i am 1 of the blacklistered person apparently, I AM NOT! yayyyy... i was worried about PTPTN especially i have missed my payment quite some time...biasa lah kita ni baru ja keja lagi gaji pun bukan la banyak macam org yg keja 5 tahun ke atas kan...so kadang2 sesak jugak la...owh, i found out about the site yg nak check PTPTN ni though reading another blogger blog...we all kinda gave comments about PTPTN ni, takot if they nak pegi bercuti or honeymoon luar negar takot lak tak lepas... i must admit i'm a little over paranoid jugak..sampai tahap nak pi bkt.kayu hitam pun takot kena tahan..hihi..
LEGA sgt hari ni walaupun it's still noon but everything seems to be ok compared to my original thought..i thought my day today was gonna be lintang pukang cos i have too many things to do..but, Alhamdulillah...so far 50% of what i wanted to accomplish today dh pun selesai dgn cepatnya with the help of few individuals... to aini, thanks cos share handouts for topic terakhir budak2 final sem...n to kak yam, tq cos making the audit session easy...and handled it like a PRO!!

Online Shopping Obsession
I hav to admit that I have a bit of obsession towards online shopping nih..cos I’m currently located in a very remote place so it kinda hard to shop for the baju yg ok2 skit (according to my taste la.. ) thanks to the great technology ( internet) now I don’t really have to worry about being so out of modernization (oops!) no offence, this place is very beautiful though… lots of greenery…huhu! ermm, thanks to those people who have online boutiques or sell stuffs over the net…because of u…my life is easier..heheh.. I’m not really good at recommending what blog that sells great baju and stuffs cos I’m sure each and very one of us have our own preference.. as for me here are few blogs that I like :-
http://triple-bee.blogspot.com/
http://www.tyracshop.com/
http://sulamqistina.blogspot.com/
actually ada banyak lagi blog yg nak share tp lupa address.. i update later ya! =) and if anybody has list of interesting blogs to share, please do so ok!tq..
maybe some won’t agree with what I like..but it’s ok…=) after all, I’m no expert here…and jauh sekali untuk megajar org lain tentang dunia fasion ni…hehe.. just that I find online shopping is way easier n way way cheaper it seems compared to the price in shopping malls…nowadays, everytime I see something that I like at the mall I always have the idea that “ tak payah la beli kat kedai ni,..cari kat blog lagi murah” hihi.. u can bet that I buy most of things like shoes,baju raya, baju jalan2, baju kerja, cakes, and lot more, all through internet! Can’t help it,.. I’m soooo obsessed!!
p/s: currently listening to Mariah Carey entitled “obsessed” ( what a coincidence!)

with him...
Ok back to our outing…it was beautiful as always…we spent the whole time talking…and enjoying great food at Manhattan Fish Market…lama tak makan seafood there. so kenyang after having that gala seafood platter…licin we bedal…
.
Then at night we stopped at key’s char koey teow in seberang jaya, the best place to have char koew teow for us…but that night as always,..a lot of people..luckily we arrived early.
We headed home later and arrived almost 12 midnight…and he had to go back to his home pulak after sending me…sian kat dia…he must be tired dh la the next morning keja …but this has been like a routine for us every once or twice a month…what to do…kahwin takpa la bagi dia singgah masuk umah I kan..hahah…*sigh* I wish we don’t have to go to separate houses anymore…sooon…but I guess kena banyak bersabar… we’re working on that,.. insyaAllah the day will eventually come… *wink*
DUTY FREE
- I won’t be allowed to enter the zone cos PTPTN I tak abeh bayar..since our government is hunting down those who have not paid yet…( well I pay ok..tp sometimes I fail to pay,..mana tau kan ttiba ja kena tahan..malu)
- Another thing mana la tahu, my face looks like 1 of the people dalam wated list by malaysian or Thailand police ka..takotnya…
Everytime I go there these 2 things always dance across my brain making my heart pumping hard n of course I admit I am paranoid person ok…padahal there is nothing to worry pun..bukan nak cross the border..huh, sabar ja la.
Anyway, our trip to the free duty zone was just 15 minutes drive from our office..and as we arrived I felt like running towards the chocolate store… hihi..I always feel like a little kid everytime I enter the shop..they have all kinds of chocolate u could possibly imagine…and the price are soooooo cheap! Tahap tak masuk akal kadang2.. since I was in the mood of hunting the hantaran items so I bought a few things there la..and maybe my luck yesterday, they had promotion for all the chocolates..huhu…
Check out some of the pics I managed to snap while doing the chocolate hunting…
This is just half of the store…I mean the whole place is filled with chocolates… those who love Hershey's & Kisses tu, the whole aisle is dedicated to Hersye's & kisses… with all types of flavours… very cheap ok… the types and brands of chocolate that this place has to offer are myriads… from budget- concern- costomer to doesn’t -care- about -the price -as long as they taste heavenly -type of costomer…memang syok..
Hmm, what did I buy then?? Ala… biasa ja la… cos I don’t plan to spend like crazy to for my engagement…hihi… but I’m so satisfied with my choice for him…ohh, as for me…this is just what I bought for myself to enjoy after a long day at work…after all, a girl can’t overindulge in lots of chocolates like this… I have more than enough fat to burn already…but this…taste…erm..A quiet taste..hahah…pahit gila!

Friday is here!!
for somebody like us who only spend twice a month seeing eah other i think i deserve to feel extra excited this week... i mean i have been waiting for this week n hoping that friday will quickly come so i can look forwad to our "dating day.." hihi...i would like to make it clear here that we are not the normal type of couple.we can't date all the time and see each other as often s wish cos there's the obsticle which is we live quite far from each other...and it kills me some time cos staying alone in the house without no housemate can be horrible at times and being away and apart from your love ones is completely 1 sad sad story... i don't have friends to share all my ups and down over here.. all my office mates remain my offimates...we work togeteher everyday and we go back to out respective house after work...i mean that's it!!boring giler this place and the people too... =( but what to do...terima seadanya la kan... and frankly speaking, i really miss all my friends back in university... we really had fun back then...but things change now... we all do have responsibles and commitments and i guess as we grow older...this is how things will be...we can't expect to have what we use to have...hmm... to all my friends,.. i miss you guys so much!!
where do i go on our date this time huh?? like always, this ulu place is not a suitable place to be on a date...the culture here is different...too many eyes are peeping...and those vicious eyes will definitely talk and create a whole lot of missconceptins which i really want to stay away from...so me and him we always go away from here... 2 hours drive to penang...hihi... he would come and pick me up early morning...we would enjoy the long journey and talk about everything...and the next thing we know we have already arrived!time flies when you are with your love one...hihi
so, ourdate is always from morning till night...cos we don't see each other often that's why we use the whole day to spend our quality time togeteher. like any normal couple, we watch movie,shopping,eating, and talk and talk and talk for hours...that's why we love to eat at places that are more private and cozy...bukan hotel ye...heheh...but of course la if we have more budget we do try some of the buffet spreads at the hotel..usually time bulan puasa,velentines or depends on situation jugak la...some hotels tak payah tunggu special occation pun ada buat promotion kan..so we love trying out the foods...can't help it...we love foods...and further more it's not that we see each other all the time kan..so when we finally have the time to meet up..we like to make each date special and memorable one by stuffing ouf faces at great places.hahah makan ja tawu...cemana nak kurus ntah...
to him,..i'm so excited to see you babe...cepat la Ahad...*sigh* winduuuu...

Adam & Hakim, Jet Lag
I still remember very well when these two cuties mintak I snap their pics…that time I was way passing my beauty sleep (chehhh…) hakim said “acu cepat snap pic kite” and being a loving aunty of course I did as told to… lawak la they could pose like this in the middle of the silent night…buat gaya ultraman…I could not stop myself from smiling verytime I see these pictures….and it turned out I was the one who couldn’t sleep as well..hihi…tak kesal lah..i have missed them so much and I was so happy to finally be with them…we had a great time celebrating the hari raya…and this year our raya was very special *grin* why uhh?? Hehe
1. Because all of our family members are reunited…last year my mak nangis masa pagi raya tu and kept thinking of my bro n sis dgn anak2 kat UK..tak lekang dari mulut dia cakap " macammana la depa kat sana..." so it was very dull raya la sebab tak cukup qorum.
2. Because I was officially dirisik by my bf family…unexpectedly..(1 citer kartun yang tak perlu didedahkan di sini…cos a few funny moments happened during the merisik thing…*phewwww*
All The Way from England
ENGAGEMENT
But Alhamdullillah I could count on my mak to handle the process…kesian la my mak..she has to go and invite the Masjid people over..because my family is a small company…my dad had passed away when I was 2..we don’t have many relatives…so there’s just us…I mean my mak n my siblings ja..we don’t have older man to handle such event..i mean..my brothers are cluless when it comes to adat2 meminang and stuffs..so we need to have older and wiser men to represent our family during the occasion…so my mak has invited the imam and their geng, canopy for the kenduri also been settled by mak..she made a call to rent the canopy,she asked for a helping hands from our neighbours to help her to prepare the feast…I mean kesian la…I wish I could do all of that on my own,..tapi payah la…we plan for small feast je and Doa Selamat to bless the event…I hope everthing will go well and if there is a few bumps here and there…normal la kan…
So maybe I can share here a few updates on my humble event…=) especially the hantaran that the both parties will receive…
For Him:-
Sirih Junjung
1. cupcake ( from inasalybakery.blogspot.com)
2. chocolate
3. fruits basket
4. kuih
5. dessert
6. 2nd dessert
7. shirt ( tetiba sesat bagi kemeja)
From Him:-
1. cake ( ordered from Secret Recipe)
2. chocolates
3. fruits basket
4. dessert
5. perfume set ( ni pun tetiba sesat)
Looking at those hantaran list some people might disapprove of giving other than foods as items for hantaran tunang. As for my case my mak being a traditional malay mother…she finds it odds to give the shirt n perfume for hantaran tunang…at first I had a bit of difficulty of explaining to her that modern pengantin-to-be nowadays give whatever they wish for the hantaran eventhough it’s only an engagement hantaran…but later she understood my point..besides, kak dilla said that the perfume set was actually my bro intention for me to include as one of the items for my hantaran…I like the idea too..
I have been blog hopping to get the ideas of what the other brides to be n previous brides has done for their preparations of their repective engagement n wedding day…so far, I find their ideas are awesome…I couldn’t do better…(ughhh!stress and jealous gila)
Looking at the time and other limitations, I curretly berserah ja la pada takdir for the event…I mean I'm having troble of putting things together and organise my engagement ALL BY MYSELF. I don't know where and how to begin...I feel like a headless chicken trying to find my direction...serabut rasa... I really wish for a miracle.But then again, i'm optimistic. I mean I still have a wedding to look forward to…and I want to take my own sweet time doing all the preparations from A to Z with my own touch n taste for my wedding! As for the engagement, takpe lah…buat yg biasa2 ja yang termampu asalkan semuanya selamat!! *keep my finggers crossed*
