February. Month of love?

Yes, it’s February, my favorite mont of all months. XD

What’s happen in my fav month, you ask? Let me break it down for you.

– MY VERY BIRTHDAY? \(^^)/ I’m 24 years old now. It’s young in case you dont know. Hahaha. Even my soon-to-be father in law suprised when he found that I’m still 24 yo. 😛 I celebrated it with my mom. Nothing fancy, it was just me and her hanging out in dunkin donuts cafe in airport, waited for my flight. She shared a lot of things. Mostly about her early marriage phase. It’s precious to me. And hopefully when I finally get married, I’ll remember all things she shared to me and take it as a knowledge to make decission in my marriage life.

And when I arrived in Jakarta, boyfie welcomed me with a gift. Aaak I love gift. Finally, after months without gift :p he’s giving me not one, but two things I love. It was cool watch and a nice yellow handbag. Thank you, baby :*

 

– HE PASSED HIS D4 EXAM ~ WOOHOOO! I was so very happy when he told me that. Still happy actually. It’s an answer from God. Now it’s official, we’re gonna live together in Jakarta after the wedding. And I dont have to resign from my job. Thank You, Lord. XD

The announcement was on February 14th. I was a bit disappointed of him because he didnt even try to make Valentine as special day. I dont want fancy stuff, it’s just that lately I felt that he changed. He just less care about me and stop giving his best for me or for this relationship. Maybe it was just me but I really really hate those feelings. But it was all nothing because the announcement really made me so excited. (I hope I can talk about ‘those feelings’ later more seriously with him.)

It’s not over yet, but I really thank God because He gave me so much love thins months. I know He loves me everyday, it’s just I am so happy that stuff happened to me in my favorite month. 😀

 

Kebaya!

This is an update, readers. Brace yourself! 😀

The most important stuff in my wedding is fixed. Hahaha. *ditoyor spouse-to-be* Yes, it’s my kebaya. After galau, bingung, bimbang, and cuek about it, I made it in my hometown. With my mom.

I had only four days, but with my mom’s help, I made it. I bought two set of bahan kebaya, both of them are semi perancis. One of them already has payet on them. And the other, well, let’s just say it’s heboh-aja-padahal-belum-dipayetin. :)))

Anyway, I dont wanna reveal the model and colour just yet. But let’s cross our fingers and hope the best. Hope that it will fit me and make all eyes on me on our wedding day. But here’s a sneek peak to you.

 

Bahan Kebaya: Altamoda, Sun Plaza, Medan

Penjahit: Miya Kebaya in Jalan Jamin Ginting, Medan

 

Jahitin kebaya is a easy yet so hard thing to do. That is because this will be my first kebaya. I had zero experience about it. Well, I wore kebaya two times. And I kinda like it. But with wedding kebaya, it’s just complicated. What if it’s not fit me on my wedding day. What if it’s not exactly the way I wanted. What if the other guest wears better kebaya than mine. What if the guests think it’s suck they talk about it as wrong-kebaya-to-wear-for-your-wedding. It’s just too much pressure. But apparently my spouse-to-be doesnt give it much tought.  That’s why we argue and argue just about kebaya. *tendang*

But then I made my mind. Kebaya is not essential. I have the best person to be my spouse and he’s willing to take care of me for the rest of my life. It should be enough.

 

 

wedding group

Pfiuh. I know I know it’s been so long I don’t write here. Umm, please accept my apology.

 

Right now, I want to share about wedding group. Since September I’ve been browse wedding stuff, esp Batak wedding, almost everyday. This one site http://www.weddingku.com helps a little, but not so much. Until I found that every year, Batak bride-to-be created a blackberry (BBM) group to share about their wedding plans. I believe it was early December when I joined the group.

And it’s been very helpful. Well, most of the time, I’m just observing about what they do or talk in there. Because, most of them are older than me. Sometime, I dont feel connect with them. But that’s okay cause in this case, older means they know better than me.

I dont join the kopdar thingy because I’m working like everyday. Hahaha. Lied. It’s just I think they are very impulsive. I know we have to make memories about our wedding. But I dont think it means that we have to share plakat, wear same costume in one’s wedding or buy stuff together to match for one’s wedding.

But believe me, they are really really helpful. Most of them know where to buy bahan kebaya, they share great kebaya models, or hair-do for wedding, and other wedding stuff. I am so blessed to be in that group: Pernikahan Adat Batak 2013. I know they won’t be there for my wedding. (It’s in Medan, most of them live in Jakarta.) And I’m not gonna be there for all of the group member’s weddings. But if you’re planning a wedding, it’s really nice to know people’ point of views; people who dont really know you and vice versa, but they have same vision, same goal with you so it doesnt really matters if they know you before or not.

Reading people’s blog or wedding website might really helpful. But it’s nothing compare to this BBM group. 🙂
