We finally went for our much anticipated Jakarta trip last friday. When I said 'we', I meant myself, mom, Mr Judge, his mom, his sis (who is getting married on the same day as Mr Judge's bertandang session), mom's friend and her husband. Yeah.. it's a rombongan cik kiah alright....
LCCT - Jakarta - Bandung - Jakarta - LCCT
That was our travel route.
Luckily we went there prepared with one HUGE bag for each family (plus anak2 bags inside the huge one. Hence, we didn't even stop to think whether all our purchases could fit into the luggages.
3 days was not enough for us to actually complete our mission (it was due to inefficient time management). I didn't get the chance to pamper myself at the Mathatilaar spa as planned. Keciwa giler ok.
Items to checked off my to do list:
- wedding invitation (checked)
- wedding favours (checked)
- baju for nikah- kain + tailoring (checked)
(can you believe that the tailoring cost is just RM80!!! damn cheap ok for a wedding costume)
- baju for family - mom + sis + aunties + uncles (checked)
(the material for baju melayu was only RM5/meter.. and it was of a high quality material...)
- extra materials for me for baju kurung/kebaya to visit relatives after the wedding
So now I'm back to my busy work schedule. Thank god I've managed to cover most of the wedding preparation at this early stage. I can't imagine what will happen if I haven't started planning since last December. I don't think I'd have time to think about the wedding anymore until the wedding month itself.
So ok people. Have a great week ahead! I know I will sure wish that I could.
binx: i'm tired!!
