Changes....

It's already Ramadhan.... Gosh... How time flies...

First of all, Happy Ramadhan to all!

This Ramadhan is a new one for me as I have to actually wake-up at 4.30 a.m. to prepare sahur for Mr Judge. You see, I am not the type that will have sahur in the early morning. I prefer to have my sahur late at night before I go to sleep. However, takkan nak biar kan Mr Judge masak sendiri kan... Tak sampai hati la pulak. So, I forced myself to get-up every day. After 4 days, it had become a routine for me to get-up even before the alarm rings. hehehe...

I cooked our first buka puasa last night. Nothing fancy, just seafood tom yam & fried beef with onions and chilies. OK laa, not too bad. I think my cooking skill is improving since I have been cooking dinner for almost everyday since we got married. Saje aje.. Nak test power.. hehehe... Plus, I kinda like my small cozy kitchen.. That's why rajin aje nak masak everyday.

We had our first visitors to our small nest last week. Mr Judge's family came over on Friday for dinner. Then my family came over for lunch on Sunday. Unfortunately, we can't invite both families at the same time because we only have 8 plates at that time... hehehe... So had to split the guest list laa kan..

I have yet to get my fix of popiah goreng and karipap this ramadhan. Maybe I'll drop by the bazaar ramadhan later today to tapau to Mom's. Will be breaking fast at Mom's place today and maybe tomorrow and every day that Mr Judge works the night shift. Tak syok laa berbuka alone.

dah lapar dah nieh.....

How was your fasting experience thus far?




binx: *yawns*

A year older.... A year wiser?

So I've added another year to my age. I am a year short of entering into another age group. That means I have another year to brag about being in the 20s group. hehehe....


The birthday came and gone... Nothing much to say about it except Mr Judge had treated me to my first Platinum class movie experience. It was really-really cool to be able to sit in the ever-so-empuk recliner in a private movie theater being attended by the ever-so-attentive waiter watching the ever-so-cute and sweet Wall-E... I like...





Didn't get to celebrate the day with the family & friends yet. Maybe will do a belated dinner with them soon.

The beginning of a new journey

Life has been pretty hectic since the wedding.

There are relatives to visit, house to clean up, things to shift into the new house, furnitures to buy and etc... On top of that, there are two weeks worth of pending work at the office.

phewh.....

However, life seems more interesting and meaningful now.

I still have yet to receive the pictures of the wedding from my wedding photographer and from other cameras that were snapping away throughout the two-day event (no we didn't manage to snap any pictures with our own cameras). However, Mr Judge's friend had kindly uploaded a photostory that he had prepared of our 'nikah' ceremony.

Will write more once we have install the internet connection at our new apartment ya.




binx: thank you for all the wishes *hugs*

The day I became Mrs Judge....

more stories to tell & pictures to upload soon....

binx: Bali was great.....!

10 days....

Things that I have gone through for the past few days....

1.
We has rushed all the way across town just to find out that we had to wait for almost an hour for the owner of the bridal boutique to arrive at her shop. When the owner came, we found out that the wife was not around and we can't have our 'fitting' session on that day! What was the point of making an appointment when you can't keep your promise?

2.
We were rushing for a wedding reception in Serdang when Mr Judge suddenly hit on the emergency breaks because the idiot driver in front of our car suddenly decided to stop without any warning. That had caused me to jolt forward and and hit the glove compartment in front of me. I now have a purple bruise on my upper right arm.

3.
My cousin, who had earlier promised to prepare all the decoration for my wedding favours and hantaran, had suddenly contracted one of her mood swings and had caused me unnecessary stress. She had screwed up all the wedding favour boxes and now I am left with 10 days to repair the damages. On top of that, since her work was not up to my standard, I had to engage the service of my mother's friend to decorate all my hantaran. I did not want to take the risk of the hantaran to turn into another disaster. Luckily mom's friend was kind enough to accept my request at the very last minute.

4.
On our way back from our 'fitting' session for the wedding costume for Mr Judge's reception yesterday, we had encountered another test from Him. We got into a car accident as we were about to leave Shah Alam. Again, another idiot driver decided to stop in the middle of a roundabout exit and it was just too late for Mr Judge to hit the breaks and BANG....! Don't worry, both of us are still in one piece. The only things that were damaged: my car's bumper. our patience and Mr Judge's wallet. Kesian dia.


I don't know what other 'test' or curve ball that He will throw at us next. However, I am glad that despite all the challenges thus far, both of us still managed to suck it up and stay strong. Not even once did we blame each other on the incidents that had happened. I belive that He was just testing our patience and also the strength of our bond.

Most kakak-kakak at the office kept telling me to becareful during these few days, before the wedding, as they said that this is the time when the bride will go through the "darah manis" period. I don't really know what that means but somehow I have a feeling that it means that this is the period where things can go wrong and it is best for you to keep yourself away from trouble. Betul ke my theory nieh?




binx: stresssssssss

18 days...

and counting....

Everything has been moving at an accelerated speed. Suddenly I don't think I am prepared anymore... There are a million things left unplanned. I am sooooooo afraid that things won't be settled in time.

Maybe that explains the gastrict attack that I have been having for the past few days.... Maybe....




binx: tummy ache :(
