Oh god my blog is rusty and full of spider-webs. *blows spiders webs away

Hello silent reader.

So, here I am again. This humble girl is updating her life into this rusty blog.

Did I mentioned that I am married to a wonderful husband. A chinese looking guy at least chinese looking enough in my eyes) who has a wonderful sense of humor and responsibilities named Hanafi Chee Mee. See, Chee Mee is a chinese name right?

And did I mentioned that I am 2 months pregnant? And I am in the first tri-mester where vomits and nausea are my 2 best friends. How thoughtful of my baby to give me this 2 new best friends.

Let's talk about the wedding first. It was haywire. I was the wedding planner. I arranged almost everything. From the biggest things to the littlest things of the wedding ceremony. Together with the help of my husband of course.

Let's go one by one.

Pre-wedding
Pre-wedding photoshoot is a must for me. Because.....I want to. But not with the wedding attire and all of course. We picked our own theme. A vintage old-fashioned theme with old mini cooper and stuff.

I picked SBXS Photography. You can check their Facebook page. Their work is awesome I tell ya. Refer below for my pre-wed photo that I have been staring till now.

Pic 1 : Trust me, this is just a "semak" area in UPM. See how awesome it turned out to be.

Pic 2: Thanks to Alin for waking up as early as 6 am just to lend us this cute mini cooper car. She tagged along and act as my Make-up artist tak bertauliah.



Solemnization

We were dead tired during our solemnization. At 2 a.m. the night before, we were still wandering around Uptown Shah Alam, searching for a cute baby pink tie for him. Yes, to that extend.

We can barely even walk. God knows how I was begging to unplugged my feet from my body. Still, we did not die. Thank god. Arrived home and slept like a pig throughout the night.

Next morning, rasa macam baru lepas mabuk-mabuk satu malam clubbing. Muka sembab gila. But I don't freaking cared. I just want to get married.

My Mak Andam is sooooo cool. She even has a cool pixie haircut. And no, it is a SHE. I don't employ SHEMALE. Yes, discrimation & judgmental just because I know how they work, how their mouths are, and attitudes act like.

Plus, Mak Andam perempuan boleh tunjuk rambut. Bukan aurat.

Ok less talk mimie. Refer to my solemnization photo below. (This is one long post)

Pic 3: My mehndi was done by Punitha from Nexhs. I took the gold facial promo. They gave alot of free services. Like my husband's mehndi as well.



 Pic 4 : I can't stop laughing looking at this picture. I guess the Tok Kadi was suprised sampai rasa nak ketuk budak ni.


Pic 5: Ok. This is fake. Hahaha Orang tengah baca al-fatihah lagi aku dah angkat tangan. Tak apa. Berkat.



Pic 6 : My family. This is the first decent picture of our family during the wedding. Abah was trying his best to suck his tummy in.


Pic 7 : My mother in-laws. Yes. 2 of them. Kau hado?!


Pic 8 : Cute cupcakes sponsored by my beloved cousin, Azrina Minhat. Together with the printing, toppers etc.

All these pictures are unedited. The real pictures aren't ready yet.

Oh before I forgot. I had a fight with the "so-called" manager of Crystal Crown, Klang. His service sucks. Unprofessional. I do recommend you guys holding your wedding there, but if you have better options, avoid that place.

Right, enough babbling. Here are some details for my Solemnization:

Date : 21 June 2013
(Some friends asked me if there is something special with the date. I replied, "No. I would have made it earlier if I could as long as I am married.)

Venue : My parents house.
Time   : After Asar. (But he arrived pretty much 5.30 pm. The Tok Kadi was waiting for him)
Theme : Baby blue + baby pink

End of part 1 of my wedding. We will continue for part 2 later when I have the time.

Is it normal if my heart beats faster everytime the fact that I am getting married terlintas dalam kepala otak aku?

Is it normal to start imagining how my life would be when I am married.

Oh God, ape ke binatang kah ini?

Excitement?
Happy?
Nervous?
Or just plain gatal?

I am going to be a wife in less than three months. *fyi, I am gasping for air right now without entering a marathon.

So, what is it then? In my opinion, it's a mixture of all the above-mentioned feelings. (except for gatal. denial mode on) t(-_-t)

Excited
Duhhh!!! Do I have to explain why I am excited? i don't even know where to start. The fact that I will be somebody's wife, the fact that I will share the same bed with him, the fact that I will wake up in the morning seeing his face instead of my cat Oyen, or the fact that I will be a future Mom, Insyallah.

Trust me, i don't know where to start. But obviously, I am looking forward to hold the title Mrs. Hanafi Chee Mee.

Happy
Happy lah mangkok. Kejadahnya tak happy nak kahwin?
Dapat pakai baju lawa (dafuq?!!! Baju pinjam la oi!)
Dapat amek gambar like millions of photos (Tak ada jerawat pula tu. Kalah muka Kak Ton yang tulang pipi tinggi sampai kena eyebag)
Dapat buat apa aku suka masa reception. (Seriously, I won't be the lovey dovey sopan kind of bride. Trust me)

Nervous
As hell. (two word that describe it all)

Gatal
Me? Gatal? Nahhhhh. Me? Naahhhh (Selak kain belah tinggi paha besar batang balak)



Conclusion:
Kalau Allah dah tetapkan aku kahwin sekian sekian hari, aku cuma mohon semuanya berjalan lancar dan dipermudahkan.

The one most important person on my BIG day can't attend my BIG day.

I am so going to SANTAU your boss Shareena Rahman. He/She is sooooo DEAD I tell ya.

Did he knew that I woke up at 3 a.m and cried because you won't be there?
Did he knew that I ask around if there are some cheap tickets for you?
Did he knew how much troubles he got me into?
I HATE YOUR BOSS

BUT...
If he's doing this because you are getting a promotion, he will be forgiven.

Because the only thing I want to see is my best friend to be happy.

By the way, I am proud to read this (refer to Picture below) on the net Na. I love you.
You are the one woman (besides my Mom) that make me cry in the middle of the night because I miss you.
I hate you for doing that. Hahahahaha

I am still me.

But they see me as another different person.
I still talk the way I did.
I still walk the way I did.
I still act the way I did.

I am still that rough chic that you guys knew.
I am still the person who laughed together with you.
The girl that you opened up to.
The girl that you called when times in need.

But all you see is my Hijab could be an obstacle.
Even the tealady said I am a hypocrite.

I am still me.
The one that remain unchaged.

Assalamualaikum.

I attended my pre-wedding course last Saturday. During the 2 days course, I had to wear a hijab. It was a fun course all in all. Except for one narrow minded Ustazah. Majlis ilmu pun nak berpikiran macam tu. Shame shame.

So by the end of the course, I started thinking, "Sampai bila tak nak pakai tudung? If you are not gonna start now, so when are you planning to start to make the change? What if today is the last day?"

The next day, I had a date with Mr. Fiance and I decided to wear it. The first person to give me a kiss on the forehead is my dad. The next guy who was happy as hell, was Hanafi. (no he did not kissed me)

The next day, I went to work, determined with the changes I have made. 80% of my colleagues congratulate me. But some still can't except me with the changes. I am still the same old me, only better.

So, here goes the responds:

"Why Nadia? You are so young? It's a waste!"

"Nak kahwin kena pakai tudung la? Aiyo, you are so young la!!! But anyways, it's done already"

"Kenapa awak pakai tudung? Nak kahwin ek?"

And the list goes on and on.

Few minutes ago, I was browsing through some gossip forum/websites online. And I read about an actress that decided to wear hijab. And the comments were so negative till I would breakdown and cry.


See how negative the two ladies are?

I thank God that He opened up my heart to actually change for good after all the things I have done in the past. I thank God that I am trying to understand the concept of hijab instead of "buta-buta" pakai hijab without knowing the meaning of it. I thank God for this opportunity.

At least I am trying to understand without judging the ones who already wore it or the ones who still knows nothing about it.

Don't judge. Hatred is the worst poison in a human's heart.

So, whenever you see or read or hear someone who is wearing a tube top, giving you advice on religion, accept it, hear it, and listen. Nothing wrong about it. Because in the same time, they are actually reminding you and themselves to be a better person.

Lastly, I want to make you guys puke rainbows seeing my so called cute face. Trolololo!
