The Ring Day!

Yesterday was a ‘Ring Day’. Helms and I went to scout around for his wedding ring in KLCC. It was easier to bring the person itself to the shop so that we can see which ring suits him the best. It’s different when you see it on its own and when you wear it on your finger. Well, there was no one ring in particular that we liked yesterday, maybe because they all look nice. Plus, I feel like our hunt for the ring is not over yet so we could not confirm to buy any of the rings…yet. There was no like love at first sight when I looked at those rings. I do believe love at first sight you know when it comes to buying stuffs. There’s like this deep inner feeling telling you that that’s THE ONE! But at first you’ll try to resist it by saying to yourself that we should check out other stuffs first just in case there is better deal at other places but you just know it that at the end of the day you’ll come back to that particular love-at-first-sight stuff. Funny eh. Thank God there has been no one telling me ‘Hey! Be a man!’...Haha. You would understand me if you have seen Russell Peter. Should really check him out. One cool funny dude! Anyway, back to the story (as always me liking to deviate from the main story, don’t mind me yeah) our first stop was Bvlgari. The boutique representative, Wan was very friendly. Though it was a high-end brand, he made us feel comfortable being at the boutique. There was a single band ring with its brand name written at the side of the band. It looked unique. I kinda like it. Our next boutique was Cartier. I’m a particular kinda person when it comes to service. I believe that when you’re at a branded store, or a posh restaurant you should be treated nicely, the service must be good and efficient. The reason it is expensive is because we not only pay for the price of the product or food per se but also for the service. Thus, it must be good or else it’s not worth paying. I must say that Cartier’s service is extremely good. We were well treated. They offered us drink, they even gave us jewellery catalogue, watch catalogue and the latest Tatler magazine. We checked out the Love collection, at first I didn’t quite like the design. However, after Helms put at his finger I was surprised, as it looked pretty nice. I might consider buying that. We also went to Piaget, I would say the rings are all okay but not really my type. Plus, the boutique representative was not that attentive towards us and that really turned me off. So Piaget is out of the question. If you peeps have any place in mind that you think the rings are nice, please leave a comment yeah so I might just check out the place. As of now, I have not made up my mind which ring I should buy. I definitely need to see more rings!

OPI and Civil paper analysis.

I have not been updating my blog due to my tight schedule in my daily routine activity. There is not much to tell except that I have been spending most of the time with Helms. There is so much to catch up between us since we were so busy with exams. Anyway, just a message for Hons2 students..according to Nazim, unfortunately all of the students pass OPI paper! Yeay! Thank God to that, I can't imagine someone repeating OPI paper. That paper is so demotivating ok. However, from another reliable source there are a few students who fail for Civil paper. According to Rajes, the number of failure is not as many as last semester but there are still few people fail the paper. Despite of having a similar type of question for every final exam it does not stop the students from failing the paper. Well, maybe it's not tough but it's very technical in a sense that you really have to understand the procedure or else you're doom! That will be my humble opinion on the paper. Not that I'm a genius or smart to comment anything about this paper since I myself am also a survivor for this paper. Haha. Let us all pray and hope for the best. Yikes! I'm so damn scared.. May the force be with us.

The all-goes-well day!

Yeap! Indeed it was the all-goes-well day for me yesterday:) I was supposed to have an appointment with Jovian only yesterday but ended up meeting a few other people whom I never intended to meet. Well, I consider yesterday as my lucky day. Huhu. Lyana was partner of the day and I must say that she did a tremendous job as my partner! Thanx babe. It was hell of a fun day. Anyway, we dropped by Cosry before meeting with Jovian. I have always wanted to see Cosry's work since I know they are really good in heavy beadings. I love beads, lots of beads! When we arrived, we were greeted by the Exec Director, Putra. He was very friendly, to the extent that he made me feel like I've known him for years! Their work in beadings are superb! There were a few lovely wedding gowns on the patungs and each&every one of it had full beadings for the top. I became rambang mata, didn't know which one that I like most because honestly all of them were lovely. Like Cinderella's dress;) Pic below: Me & Putra


Not long after that, Pak Abu, the famous wedding decorator came to the boutique. Apparently his showroom is situated above Cosry's boutique. It was really a fate for me to meet Pak Abu. My mom have been telling me to make an appointment with Pak Abu but since I was extremely busy with the final exam, I did not bother to look out for his no. and make an appointment. At that instant moment, I told Pak Abu that my mom have been wanting to make an appointment with him but I just didn't have time to find him. How was he? Well, if u think I'm loud, he's louder! Hehe. We talked a lot about how my wedding concepts would be, he even gave me suggestions on how my wedding dress should be. Putra and Lyana, on the other hand were laughing all the way seeing us arguing on the design of my wedding dress. Pak Abu took us to his showroom and showed us some of his bunga telor. There were a few lovely ones that attracted my eyes but I have yet to decide which one I would go for, for my bunga telor.

Shortly after that, we went to Jovian's boutique for the appointment. Thought of just checking out his design and how he is as a person. I ended up liking his design as well as him as he was really cool. He has very good PR skills unlike some other designers who think they are famous enough that they do not need to impress the clients with a high degree of courtesy and the PR skills. Especially in my case, I went there as a student but yet he treated me very well and the service was really good. Well, I guess it's worth the price paying for his couture. Jovian is a jovial person. Rhymes very well huh. Anyway, he asked me how I wanted the dress to look like as in modern or traditional? I told him I want it to look fresh, unique and most importantly something that is not cliche. He did a very nice sketch for my wedding dress. I was really impressed the fact that we gave him 10 mins to think and sketch my wedding dress. When I saw the wedding dress he drew, I felt like he knew what I was thinking coz some of the details for the top and the sarung was just perfect like how I wanted it to be. I just love it! Then we bumped into Kak Nita (Anita Sarawak) right before we said bye to Jovian. It turned out to be an enjoyable day for both of us and we were like so hyper all the way..


Since we had a very nice day meeting all sorts of people, we decided to treat ourselves with a nice sweet dessert. We ended our day with an extremely nice dessert that I would crave for like 24/7 and that would be none other than....Molten Choc Cake @ Chilli's. Yeay!!



Busy! Busy! Busy!

Hola peeps! It has been a busy week for me. Didn't have the time to add any posts lately. So now I'm gonna tell you things that I've done, places that I've been, peeps that I've met. Here goes...

Last week, I went to Jovian Mandagie's boutique just to check out the place and the design. I ended up making an appointment with him after being much persuaded by Kak Yani, the person who is in charge of taking care of the boutique. Since there was no one at the boutique, Faha, Lyana and I had a fun time taking pics at every angle of the boutique (well, it was as well as due to lots of support from Kak Yani of course!) We thought of heading to Cosry after that but since it was closed we headed to Delicious at Bangsar Village, just to munch something before we head back home. It was a long tiring day. Will update you on the next appointment.

ROOM NEEDED!

It's funny how God connect us with each other. With just a sentence, a phone call, voila! I met two lovely people. She needed a room and I needed a housemate. You may not believe fate as much as I do but I presume this is Fate. I have never expected to get such a warm friendly housemates and I have never imagined to get treated so nicely. Whether you believe me or not, we were suddenly like best of friends. Thanks girls! This farewell post is dedicated to my 2 beloved housemates, Faha & Ila. You girls rock! Tipu...no, seriously babe:) Argh, I'm so affected by that 'seriously' word..

To me, quality of a friendship does not depend on the duration but it truly depends on the moment you cherish the time together. No matter how short the duration is, if it's a good friendship, it will last till you die. I may know them for a short while but it feels like I have known them all these years. Thanks for making me comfortable being at home. It was indeed a Home Sweet Home! People say that everyone has their good side and bad side. As far as I'm concern, you girls have never shown me the bad side. The whole semester was filled with laughter. However, if any of you happen to detect any of my defect attitude, forgive me ya.

Babe, thanks for all the nights, for all the help. Thanks for the accompanying sessions especially makan2 sessions. You really should be Khulafa's spokeperson! Well, you won't be having stepmother anymore (yes, thank God huh) so please no Nasi Lemak at night and not so much of cili padi ok, it's killing you! Now that you don't have anyone to update you on the politics please do read thestar.com.my. Remember babe, avoid me if you know you're going to be hit with your heels (yeah, u know what I'm talking about). I know now that you're a strong person so just wait till it comes k. "If it comes, it comes". Sorry for any unwanted advice ya, it's just me being a friend. Sorry for the unwanted words as well, like 'lagi gemuk' and 'buruk jugak'! I have to learn to speak proper malay with u. Gosh!

Darl, though you're not at home MOST of the time, but the thought of you bringing home eggs all the time cure it all! Thanks for the eggs. You save me & Faha from hunger in the morning! Darl, no matter how complicated your life is, do not wonder on the reasons and solutions instead keep on moving and along the way you will find the solutions to each of your problems. Just be cool. Like I always say to Faha Raha, if it comes, it comes. Ok. Please don't forget me if you become part of RTM peeps, just put me as extras. Nak jadi org tukang lalu lalang je kat belakang...Jadi tere cam Yasmin Ahmad k!

Take care girls. I'm going to miss staying with you all. Thank you God for making me 2 friends richer..oh no, I'm actually 5 friends richer! It was nice knowing Lyana, Bobo, Ery & Fila. Lyana dear, we have got to go mkn2 some more so that you can post it in your blog. Make sure we do't get caught taking pics or else food price kena mark up. Huhu. I want nice and delicious food! Bobo, please don't forget our deal which is to do my wedding montage. Make sure yang fantastic bombastic that at the end of the montage I'll be like...isk,isk,isk...Waaaa! Oh ya, Bobo and Ery we have got to lepak some more to talk about our fav topic..Ta~ xoxo Love xoxo

ANGER

There is plenty of anger inside me,
It has to stop somewhere,
It has caused me a lot of trouble,
Why is there so much of anger in me?
My anger is part of my depression,
Anger is a strong feeling of displeasure,
It is a grief inside me,
I have to control it,
I have to do it before it's too late,
Please let me go of this anger!

Poem from him, my chosen one.

It's been years since we first met,
Since we looked into each other eyes,
Not realising that we are meant to be together,
It's been years since we shared our first laugh, our smile,
Since we shared our first kiss,
I remember how strong your arms embraced me,
How soft you held me,
How warm and gentle you were,
I remember how passionate that first kiss was,
Now my heart is dancing, happy, knowing that it's been years since we first met
and you're still here kissing me just the same,
What I felt for you is still the same,
It's been years and that feeling will never change.
