DIY wedding: wedding card

Assalamualaikum,

soooo, 71 days until my big day.

Since my wedding is a budget wedding, I decided to make my own wedding card. I took almost one week, not because it's that difficult. I follow all the steps i read from a blog which I already forgot the name. Thank you to the blogger. You inspired me to save expenditure. I started with google the suitable pictures. I found one that for me, it's exclusive. Less and simple. Black and white.

I decided to make a postcard style wedding card since it'd help for materials saving. haha. dasar cheapskate. At first, i tried to use Microsoft Publisher. When it came to printing, I couldn't find a way to edit the margins. I cracked my head thinking of another option. The blogger made her wedding card using Microsoft word. There must be a reason which i already discovered only after i had finished with the final touch. What a wasting of time. pfttt.  

Microsoft Word made my work easy. I manage to decorate three wedding cards. Among those three, my sisters chose the one that I liked. woohooo. Less is simple. Only black and white.

I bought a craft card (220gsm) for RM 5. There's 12 papers in each packaging. I bought 10 since I need only 400 cards. I spend only RM 50 for wedding cards. Alhamdulillah.

I sent for printing for another 100 cards. nak bagi dekat cikgu sekolah. Harap faham mulut-mulut cikgu macam mana. huhu. Malas kecoh.

yang nak buang card lepas baca, silakan.

New Year 2016

Assalamualaikum,

Time really flies. Prior to the new year eve, I would like to outline a few resolutions. hahahaha.

I wish time to fly to April. The day we both will be reunite. haha. gatai! but, it's real.

I remember the first time we both were talking about getting married, It was 7 years ago while I was still in college and he was doing preparation. We couldn't since both of our parents were not into that. We're not coming from a rich family and they really worries we couldn't survive and maybe, one of us might end up to quit studying.

Up until now, my father still uttered the word of discontentment because i couldn't give him a teacher sil. hahahaha. I wouldn't mind at all. Having such situation made me strong from day by day because i know we'l face a lot of ups and downs together in our new journey soon.

In a blessed marriage, one of us has to give up and the other one has to be supportive. Yeah, I've to give up my profession for the sake of his profession. I've tried to save my journey but there's no way other than having a long break to give him a chance t grab experience from the place where he worked right now. That's the sense of sacrifice that I tried to mention earlier.

It takes a lot of sacrifices to survive in a relationship. If it's me, I wouldn't want to say much other than please appreciate. That's all. I don't need a pricey handbag to repay all the deeds. I just need someone who will stay with me throughout my dark days esp.

Furthermore, I'm confident that this migration would be a big help to my career. I wish to volunteer in ELT once I get there. who knows it would be a stepping stone for me to have a fluent English. English is a skill which i, yet, couldn't practice with my fellow colleges. We tend to use our language although we're together with English teachers. pity us!

The second resolution is to khatam al quran before April and to explore a few places in Johor before leaving. Who knows I won't come back or we just let ourselves stuck in Japan forever since my breadwinner loves Japan and its people so much.

Last but not least, I want to perform prayer on time. As I' typing this post, I haven't perform my Isyak prayer. pfttt. Staring from Subuh tomorrow, iA. Aaamin.

Have a blessed and memorable 2016.

REMINDER?

Assalamualaikum,

I posted something on my facebook and someone who really annoying commented something annoyed.

I was telling fahmi about this and he just relaxed as if nothing happened. One thing he said, Malays are typical. or typical Malays. They won't feel ok with the happiness of others.

I didn't even mentioned that I didn't feel contented with things that happened in my life. Who are you to judge me like that?

I was so stressed with things that came into my life. The GPKs opposed the new teachers with lots of high positions. I hate because it's unfair. I told him that I wanna get married next year that I probably could not give as much time as i gave last year. They gave me 8 positions. why?

There are 70 teachers. All alive and not even crazy. I know i gotta leave this school before things get worst. I have no patient at all. yesss!!! i'm not that kind of human.

where's the fairness?

single and unmarried?

they burdened us with a lot of positions because we're still single. sorry! I have no time for all that. Sorry!

engagement day

Assalamualaikum,

if my blog was physical, it must be full of sawang. I couldn't find my mojo in writing.

March 2015

Fahmi came to my house with his parents and aunt.

12th December 2015

Fahmi and I got engaged. Alhamdulillah. Finally! After 7 coming to 8 years of LDR.

He wasn't around that day because he had to work. Well, I'm expensive! haha

His family came to my house right after zuhr prayer. It was just between two families; mine and his. We requested a simple celebration due to cost saving and a few other secluded reasons.

His family brought 7 dulangs and so as us.

It took only 5 minutes for the elders to discuss since we already decided everything a month before. haha.

Alhamdulillah. All praises to Allah. We're hoping and praying for a smooth sailing journey to the solemnization day. 124 days to go .

Thank you Allah for sending me a great man for me to adore.





I did the beadings on my kurung. cost saving.

till then peeps.

love

Assalamualaikum,

Being 24 and working made me feel a little bit different. Love is not all what about i love you. But, it's all about sacrifices.

To love and to be loved. It's not all bout earn but one must learn to give and accept. None of us are born with the special character but we have the choice whether to learn or not to.

One who tries to learn will find serenity and feel the contentment. One who chooses not will find the other way round.

Dear my future children,
Whoever you brings home one day, I will accept with an open heart with only one condition; deen. I promise I wouldn't make you guys wait to get married. You parents journey isn't as easy as yours. It takes years for us to console our parents. It takes years for us to tie a knot. It takes a lot of tears for us to be together. We won't let it happen to you guys. Promise!

xoxo

From Nagoya to Tsurumi-ku,Tokyo

Assalamualaikum,

I'm writing on behalf of Fahmi since he doesn't have any blogs to keep his life story. Muahahaha.

He started working last April. His first workplace was in Nagoya. A place he loved so much because of the relax and slow life and the friendly people. He made lots of friends there. This is the plus about him. He loved to make friends and hardly turning down people's request esp the olders. Hats off.

24th September, He moved out from his first house in Nagoya and started a new life in Tokyo, a busy city.

His first house was a quite big house with three bedrooms, a small kitchen and a balcony. He didn't use any of the rooms and he preferred to sleep and lepak at the living room. I still remember he bought curtains. hahahaha. The curtains covered only half of the window which meant people from outside could still see him clearly. I laughed till my eyes wet. He spent his weekends joining Nihonggo class. Now, he could read newpapers. Meaning to say, he could grab much more kanji. I could only read hiragana and katakana.

He got transferred because he got promoted to join other department which offered a slight higher payment. Thanks abang! A new pose which came with a lot of new responsibilities.

In Tokyo, he managed to get a small house with only one living room and a separate kitchen. He will return to Nagoya next year in June for a month training and I will be joining him later. By that time, he will get a new house; a company house which will be much more comfortable for our small family. insha Allah. We plan but Allah has a better plan for us. To him we rely.

Today, he arrived home at 10pm (Japan time). I pitied him. Thanks for the sacrifice. Thanks for the thoughts.

When I say your house, he always correct me 'it's our house'. Okay. You make me smile.

xo,

Dini's wedding

Assalamualaikum,

Witnessing a good friend of mine became someone's was an honour for me. Last week, I got the opportunity to witness one of my best buddies' solemnization. I departed from Larkin on Thursday (17/9) night and arrived the next morning. The solemnization was scheduled to happen on Friday afternoon after Asar prayer. Time really flies. I arrived at 8.30 a.m and papa brought me home.

Meeting umi and the rest of the family that I missed so much was an unforgettable memory. Papa introduce me as his adopted daughter. haha. The small thing that made me feel loved there. I went straight to the kitchen and offered some helps. I manage to help to fry some onions before I made my way to the bedroom and had a beautiful sleep. The journey took 12 hours and i could not stand the coldness. 12 hours was like 12 years. My body ached. My eyes deprived for a super nap.

Time really flies.

I witnessed a good friend of mine became someone's Mrs. what a beautiful feeling.

taraangggg!!!


and I am now counting for our big day. what a beautiful feeling.

215 days until the day we will cherish forever. iA
