Where there's a will, there's a way~


 Ini gambar masa bulan 6, 2010. My weight was 49/50 kg.


Ini pula gambar kelmarin, 26 Feb 2011. Now im 45 kg. :)

Haha nampak beza? Bukan senang tau aku nk letak gamba buncit tanpa edit di photoshop letak dlm blog. :p
Kelmarin, 2 orang kata aku kurus.
Satu kawan Alif yang aku jarang jumpa n bercakap.
Satu lagi sorg akak yang aku baru kenal.
"Dulu masa akak before pregnant akak kecik macam awakla 49kg"
Erkk terasa nak betulkan je statement akak tuh I'm 45 kg. ekeke tp rude la ko jgn over leh tak.

That makes my day. :)

How i achieve it to lose 5 kg is not easy.
Even my friends try bet kalau berjaya dapat 45 kg dapat external harddisk pon tak jalan.
So how i do it?

Right after my risik day in October, i knew i have to do somethg for my big day.
I want to look pretty with no buncit or extra dagu. ekeke.
Wut i did is I try to psycho myself everyday.
So it's all about psychology ppl.
I told myself; "Gal, u want to look pretty on ur big day or u want to hate urself when look at the pics later?"
So I cut down my rice to half.
Sometimes no rice at all in 3 days.
I replace it with roti or mee.
I save alot too. huhu


I dunno how i do it..but i did it!
Im thankful for having 2 lunch partners who dun eat much so sumhow it helps alot.
But once in a while when im stress, i simply eat anythg i want without feel guilty.
I hope im able to remain 45 kg till the big day. :)

Kain sari cantik

Tadi lunch hour sempat singgah kedai sari kat PJ.
Nama kedai agagaga tak smpat check. Nanti i update.

Arituh ada gak berangan nak buat kain akad nikah pakai kain sari.
tp malas nak menjelajah jalan TAR so end up saya di Jakel, Shah Alam and Biwanis The Curve saja.
End up beli chiffon kosong + border lace yg harganyerh biarla rahsier.

But sangatla tempting tengok kain2 sari tadi.
Dahla material dier kain chiffon.
Ada sedikit ralat di hati argh kalau beli kains kat sini jerh kan senang n murah tak payah berlace.
Dapat 6 meter plak tuh. Bley buat kain baju kurung ala2 kipas/kembang kat bottom tuh.
Hurms ok benda da lepas takle nak ralat.

Jadi pada korang yang belum lagi beli kain untuk akad nikah, please2 consider kain sari coz sangatla cantik detailing nyerh.

Saya nak buat baju raya pakai kain sari. tak kirer. Sungguh gemerlapan raya ku nanti. :p

 Red is nice.
Harga RM150 kot kalau tak silap.

Ni version turquoise. agagaga

Tq model. :) Kain ni sangat cantik bila tengok depan2. kat kamera kureng sket.
Harga RM200.

color purple kesukaan. Kalau aku jadi beli kain ni aku nak buat kaftan.
Mesti cantik. Nyummy!
Ni harga dia dalam RM300.
Masa pegang kain ni siap cakap "i nak kahwin 2x please. Nak buat kain akad nikah. Huwaa"
Pekerja tuh gelak ajerh. :p


Kat belakang tuh ada lagi banyak yang cantik2. 
Tapi kitorg bukak 4-5 helai je kesian plak orang yg nk melipat tuh nanti. :p

We will come here again for sure~~

Pelamin untuk perkahwinan serentak

I think pelamin-pelamin vendor/ bridal boutiques sekarang kena start untuk buat package untuk perkahwinan serentak.
as sekarang makin ramai yang kahwin serentak.

Sbb susahnya la nak cari vendor untuk side Alip.
Most of the vendor tak provide kerusi yang sama untuk 2 pasangan.
Ada yg provide 4 buah kerusi tp kerusi yang jenis tinggi2 tuh.
I dun like it.
Setakat ni 2 bridal boutique ni je yg nampak berkenan di hati.

 Tp kerusi lain2 kan? Herms Aku suka this both style kerusi. tp kalau leh nak sama jenis untuk kedua2 pasangan.

 Lebih kurang cmni la kot nti.

 
Erms kurang suka this style of chairs. tp if takder choice leh jerhla.

  Not bad jugak.

Credit to Azika Collections and Arma.
We can't afford Arma. The price boleh bayar down payment beli rumah. :p
Whoever can afford them lucky you.
We met Arma's staff that day and he is friendly and sabar jer melayan pertanyaan kitorg.

So insyaallah nti nak g Azika Collections la nak survey for the price hopefully not so expensive.

It's scary how it turns out to be...

Tinggal 3 hari je sebelum majlis.
Time tuhla orang2 katering tanyer betul ker color yang kitorg pilih ni untuk skirting and alas meja?
Naper macam pelik?
Why pink instead of green?
Then somebody gave instruction to them change to ugly dark green.
and i like dun have any strengths to object.

Then on the day of my big day, i received a phone call from my pelamin vendor, she said she couldn't make it on time.
She cancel on me last minute and wants to return all my money back because she had no confidence to do it.
I became a bridezilla crying and begging her to please just come and do her best and i dun mind at all if it turns out nice or not.
How could this happen to me on last minute?
Nobody can ruin my day like dat.
Then suddenly my parents blame me for choosing the vendor.

It was a big mess and i felt like hiding sumwhere and crying.



Luckily...
it was just a DREAM.
I wake up and thinking for awhile so it just a dream.
A bad dream. My wedding still 7 more months to come.

Omigod it feels so real.
Do you guys dreams all this weird things before your big day? :(

Sepakat membawa berkat

Last weekend g wedding cousin di JB.
What i respect the most are their family values and spirit. hihihi
Adik beradik dorg sangat la rajin.
Sanggup tukar heels to flat je ok menjelang petang sbb yerla turun naik pusing 1 dewan.

Adik dia jugakla yang menjaga tol n terror plak tu.
Tahukan adat di jb ada tol2 ni.
Dorang kahwin serentak.
Lebey kurang aku la nanti bila belah Alip.
So penpaham la kalau kahwin serentak ni, penat dia confirm berganda.
But i can say, the event went well.
Food sedapp especially the drinks. We had fun drank all of them :p.

 
Adik beradik rajin bersama kakak ipar baru dan abg ipar baru. huhu.

 Pelamin ni cantik okie. Nampak luas dewan.

Yeah it's great if able to have pretty pelamin.
It's great to wear some designer's outfit.
It's great to have beautiful wedding.
But nothing compare to have great family spirit - help each other tanpa berkira.
3 hari berturut2 ok wedding dorg ni. Aku boleh rasakan penat dorg tak hilang lagi.
Yerla dulu aku sama2 bersusah payah untuk wedding akak2 aku. Jadi aku pahamla penat nyerh cmner.


To cousin dearie, congrats for your wedding~
Pak Long said u both looks great together. :)
Mak Long and I couldn't agree more. :p

 Takder gambar bersama pengantin sobs sbb iphone abes battery and camera mak abh pon abes battery jd ada gambar gedik ngn rakan saja yang sempat saya snap. hehe. Ohs kebetulan rakan adalah rakan kepada cousin juger. Kecik tau dunia ni. Hehe

Dorg pon ada guestbook. Tp cousins beli kot.
If korg nak buat, DIY la kie. Tp kalo tak cukup masa beli saja dong.

Sama sangat ke?

Dari la awal couple smpai la sekarang, dah immune sangat bila dengar comments like:-
"Muka korang samerla!"
"Muka rai macam muka alip version pakai tudung"
"Haha muka korang samala bulat"
"Korang ni macam adik-beradik la muka"
"Wah muka korg sama sure jodoh korang panjang"
"Korang ni muka sama memang meant for each other"

Aku sengih ajerh. Bagi aku bila orang cakap cmni, means ini adalah doa untuk jodoh kami. Setiap kata2 kan merupakan doa. Haha aku takder masalah. Suka je dengar all the comments.

Tp muka sama tak semesti semuanyer smooth ok. Tak semesti tak bertekak bergado smerk.
We still sumtimes fight for stupid matters.
I guess that's normal rite?

Ok cter hari ini ialah apabila teman kan dia n bakal mak mentua ke butik kawen untuk survey pelamin2 kat area rumah dia.
Actually dah suruh dier pergi jer dengan mak dia tp dia suruh jugak ikut sebab dier tak reti sangat nak explain kat mak dia cmner yg kitorg discuss before this.
Takderhal, i pon join sajer.

3 butik jer pon g. Then butik last ni ada catering sekali. So lama gak lepak kat sini. Kitorg tanya macam2 soalan.

"So kak before this ada buat pelamin untuk kahwin serentak tak?"

"Ada. So awak 2 la ni pasangan adik-beradiknyer?"

"Eh tak la. Dia saja" <-- Jawapan aku memang tak memberansangkan kan? Hahaha. Aper ntah aku jawab.

"Ohs maksudnya dia sorang je. Lagi sorang adik beradik nya takder?"

"Haahs"

"So awak ni adik nyer?"

"Eh tak. Saya dengan dia la" <-- Abestuh takkan aku nak jawab saya gf dia. So childish to answer like that in front of bakal mak mentua duduk sebelah kanan ni. Tuhla tak bertunang kan susah kalau tak senang aku jawab ni tunang saya abes cter.

Alip yang pening ngn conversation tuh pon interrupt; "Saya kawin ngn dia nanti. Yang lagi satu pasangan tuh abang saya takder kat sini"

"Ohsss laaaa saya ingat kan awak berdua adik beradik. Muka sama sangattttt."

"So mana satu anak makcik?"

"Yang ni." <-- Bakal mak mentua dah gelak2 smbil tunjuk Alip.

"Dia ni pandai memang cari yang muka sama"

"Saya pon ingat adik beradik lagipon biasa nya kalau tengok pelamin jarang bawak bakal menantu sekali"

Muka akak tu masih tercengang mengkaji persamaan muka aku n alip agaknyer.

Demm. Semua salah alip tau. :p
Malu aku dah nak meneruskan kata2.
Aku rasa muka aku da blushing ker haper ntah time tuh.
Masalahnyerh Alip insist me to join.
Her mom dun mind n i said ok je la.
Lagipon akak, ni kan 2011.
Normal kan if bakal menantu visit the families for both side.
Nanti takder la kekok sangat terkejut nk masuk family baru.
Kena la get to know each other from now.
Kata orang bila kita kahwin, kita kahwin dengan keluarga dia sekali.
Lagipon ni first time aku keluar ngn bakal mak mentua bersama2.
I think ramai jerh antara korg yang memang lagi selamba kan ngn keluarga bakal mentua?

Takper nanti nak tengok gambar kahwin betul ker sama sangat muka smpai strangers pon confuse.
Tak kuasa nak cari gambar bersama2 upload kat sini sbb takder gambar terbaru.
Lagipon kat sidebar pon ada gambar kitorg.
Sama ker?
I mean sangat sama ker? hahahaha

Lovely wedding

I think everyone adores Rizalman's touch.
Never fail to impress all of us.
Here's another one of his lovely wedding creation.

Simple. Nice. Lovely.

  Akad nikah attire - tak perlu pakai normal veil. Rizalman replace dengan ala2 classic melayu veil.

Bridesmaids nyerh pakaian pon simple ajerh. Kebaya moden ngn soft purple color. 

 Suka nyerh kerusi english style cmni yg skarang popular di majlis2 pengantin.
But i can't have this kind of chairs on my wed. Sobs.

 Simple pelamin n decor during majlis akad nikah.


 Pelamin reception. Simple je. tp cantik.


 Tak perlu pakai veil.

Guestbook and FREEBIES! :p

Weekend masa tahun baru cina, balik rumah parents, kat batu pahat kemas2 bilik then nampak artwork masa kat MMU masa Alpha dulu.

Found this.
 Nama kat page kanan terpaksa di blurkan. :p

Begitu juga nama di cover depan terpaksa diblurkan. :p

Ok. Takla megah mana. Haha ni artwork masa budak2. Kunun nak buat buku ala2 Harry Potter.

So this can be lil inspiration for the wedding guestbook rite? I know now it's a trend to do guestbooks in malay wedding. Teknik nak buat buku ni senang jer.
  • Beli paper coklat pelbagai jenis and materials.
  • Cari font kat internet yg ala2 classic.
  • Install font di laptop/computer/mac.
  • Print nice quotes. So untuk kahwin bolehla cari love quotes.
  • Binding.
Ntah kenapa burink takder kerja di opis padahal kerja freelance ada jerh tp taknak buat td. Hehe so saya buat lil freebies for you guys. It's a Guestbook Template.

Tadaaaaa!


Sedikit info:-
  • The template format is in Powerpoint slides in A4 size. The background in PNG. Why PNG? So that you guys can print on whatever paper color that you want. Cuma tadi saya print ntah kenapa tak berapa smooth . Grr is it my printer or is it PNG file bila print jadi tak cantik? ahahaha. sorryla. nti if ada masa i repair yer. But it's still acceptable la quality nyerh.
  • The texts on it can be edit/change. So that's why i buat in Powerpoint. Semua orang yang takder Photoshop mahupon Illustrator boleh guna.
  • Ok sila download dari link di atas tadi. Unzip. Install fonts didalam folder tersebut. Ohs sila tutup powerpoint dulu before install yerh. Dah install fonts, baru bukak balik file tadi.

 Ni kira mukasurat pertama la. All text boleh edit/tukar dlm powerpoint.
 Yg ni second page. Kamu boleh ganti dengan ucapan terima kasih ataupon other quotes.
Saya tunjuk contoh ajerh. Text boleh ditukar.


Ohs ada space di belah kanan untuk kawasan biding belah kanan
Lukisan lidi bodoh2 itu korang ganti la dengan gambar kamu dengan pasangan kamu. (real picture)
Tapi jika malas, boleh saja remain luksian lidi ni. :p
All the text boleh edit/change to english or to other texts you want.

 
Space belah kiri untuk kawasan binding

Hehe itu saja. Boleh la print/fotostat banyak2.
Before print banyak2, test la print sket2 n tengok make sense tak print depan belakang.
Ahahaha paham kan maksud saya?

Ohs i make each pages background in slide master. Tahu tak macamana nk change slide master?
Just pergi View > Slide Master > Dah abes edit backgound > Tekan close.
Kenapa kena buat Slide Master? So that boleh lock template. In case korg nk banyak2 page pon, template design tuh still there.
Company dulu asik kena buat presentation slides. Jadi sumhow bolehla share knowledge yg ada tuh ngn korg.

I did this inspiration from Google. :)
Takla cantik pon. Sempoi ajerh just for fun mengisi masa lapang.
If ada masa, i buatla lagi cantik2.

 Haha yeah tiru sket here n there.
Samada before binding nak leraikan kasi kat setiap tetamu atau binding la sesiap letak atas meja guestbook.

 Ok for cover try la use this thick cover. Yang ni kena cari kat kedai.

Kalau jumper colorful lagi nice.

 Tapi if me, i like as simple like this. Letak gambar dengan pasangan and tarikh kahwin anda.

Pastuh carikla binding cantik2 cmnih kat kedai.
Kalau boleh g survey kat kedai dulu n share harga binding pakai ring cantik2 tuh yerh. hehe.

I think sekarang ni pelbagai jenis ring binding. Pilihla yang bersesuaian.
Try carik material paper yang nampak classic or ada texture mesti cantik.
Ok. Selamat mendownload n men-DIY ur guestbook. :p
Kalau ada prob ngn template tuh just leave ur comments here.

Wedding ni kan banyak betul belanja nyerh tp kita still boleh meng-kreatifkan diri try save budget kat memaner yg patot n still make the majlis memorable. I hope with this Freebies able meringankan beban korg sikit. :)

Small vase for table centerpieces

Sebenarnyerh tolong survey kan harga vase ni kat Ikea untuk abah for table centerpieces.
Insyaallah Abah nak buat sindrik table centerpieces. Yey! Aku yakin ngn hasil tangan abah especially bab2 bunga ni coz he knows best!





I think the vases in Ikea a bit pricey. Tho the RM9.90 for 6 pieces tuh murah, tp gelas nyerh kecik sgt kot.
Ada sesaper tau katner nk cari vase murah2 tp not so small?

Nanti lehla jd cmni.
