Character Judgement

Uncle Singh said:

You are a very determined person. At times you might be a bit aggressive in order to ensure that you will get your way. But don't get me wrong... You are not pushy, just determined. This attribute plus your willingness to initiate and explore new things will ensure that you'll become a good leader in the future.


Future FIL said:

You have a strong character and a strong mind.


A colleague said:

I believe that you will be able to get what you want because you will make sure that you get it.


Mr Judge said:

You nieh degil and you have your own mind. But that's one of the things that I like about you.



hmmm....

Conclusion: I'm a hard-headed, pushy person

*smile*




binx: yeay! i'm finally a confirmed staff!

Some people can be so insensitive!

The invitations are out!

I have finally managed to distribute the invitation to my colleagues yesterday. And after personally delivering the cards personally to each and every person on the 17th floor, I was actually taken aback by how insensitive people could be...

Situation 1:

Mr. S: The ladies in my department have been asking me questions about your wedding card...
Me: What kind of questions?
Mr. S: Well, they asked... "Kenapa nama mak dia sorang je dalam kad nieh? Bapak dia dah takde ke?"
Me: So what did you tell them?
Mr. S: I told them.. "Bapak dia ada lagi....". I didn't want to elaborate much
Me: oook... and?
Mr. S: And they asked again... "If bapak dia ada kenapa takde nama dalam kad nieh?"
Me: They really have to ask THAT?

Can't they figure it out already???

Situation 2:

Mr C: Thank you for the invite...
Me: No problem..
Mr C: Eh, bukan father you ada "Datuk" ke?
Me: Errrmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... yes, I think so...
Mr C: Then why in your name tak letak his title? Takkan so humble kut?
Me: Well.... (very uncomfortable)... My parents are divorced... (don't wanna explain more)
Mr C: So?
Me: He was title'less when he left us.. So I don't see the point of putting in the title!
Mr C: But still takkan laa tuh pun tanak letak kut...
Me: It's going to be a reception held by my mother... so I seriously don't see the importance on the title being in the invitation card!

Urrrggghhh.....!!!

Today I have to endure another round of uncomfortable'ness when I have to distribute the invites to my old colleagues on the 5th floor and also see the Beast...


UPDATE:


Me: Hi Beast...
Beast: Hey.. what are you doing here?
Me: Just want to pass u an invite to my wedding
Beast: *wide eyes* U'RE TAKING THE PLUNGE?
Me: *smile* *smile*
Beast: I THOUGHT U'LL NEVER TAKE THE PLUNGE!! *dengan penuh hasat dengki*

Oh my... It was like she had taken a sharp knife and plunged it to my heart, there and then...
:(




binx: i hate nosy people!

Trying times...

I understand that Allah is trying to test my patience and also the magnitude of my relationship with Mr Judge. And I am not complaining nor am I giving up.

I guess everything happens for a reason....

The huge argument that we had last Sunday, that almost bring the wedding plans to a halt, had made us stronger, as a couple. It had cleared most of the misunderstanding that had been the cause of friction between us for the past month. I really hope and wish that there will be no more rows for the next 6 weeks (gosh... time flies so fast!).

Last Tuesday's event had also test my ability to adapt with Mr Judge's family and relatives when I was given a task to assist with the kenduri arwah for his late grandfather that had passed away that morning. Memang mencabar and there were times when I almost lost my tamper in dealing with his relatives. However, I've managed to suck it up and had survived the day without making any new enemies... :)

I have been going to his house straight from work for the past 2 days. I consider it as my duty to help his mother with the preparation for the kenduri arwah for 3 days on a row. I don't mind doing it. In fact, it just seems natural to be there amongst his family members.


Gosh.... I really hope that things will speed up smoothly. I wish I could just fast forward everything to the day after our wedding coz by then we'll already be in Bali!!!
