Tag-o-rama about weddings.

I've been tagged by my coursemate, Ayu. Then I read the answers replied by the other 2 that were tagged, namely Nana and Anot. Seriously, most of our answers are almost the same. Maybe that's why we are studying in the same course? Huhu. :P

This entry is pretty long, and repetitive if you have already read about this somewhere (esp if you already read Nana's and Anot's), so you are free to skip this entry, and only to read it if you have time. And you are extremely bored. :P

Anyway. Here goes.

1.How old are you?
Just turned 22 almost one month ago.

2. Are you single?
*raises eyebrow* Yeah. *chuckles*

3. In what age do you think you’ll get married?
Target age : 25 years old. Hoping I could meet THE ONE soon though. Hehe. So I could get to know him well before getting married to him. :D

4. Do you think you’ll be marrying the person you are with now?
Ha..... :P Nope. (Going out with people but not mutually exclusive).

Maybe would meet back with someone I used to know, get to know him better, and maybe fall head over heels in love.

5. If not, who do you want to marry?

Continuation from question 4.

Plus the fact that he amazes me, and is charming enough to get my attention, and doesn't irk me while doing it.

6. Do you want a garden/beach wedding, or the traditional wedding?
Garden la weh.

Wearing white in a background of green and flowers, what could get better than that??

Actually a beach wedding would be great too, with the wind blowing in my hair, and maybe in the evening, overlooking the sunset, having my feet feeling the sand...... :P

Tapi conventional would be okay gak. If the husband doesn't agree with the first two. Because it's his wedding too right? :P

7. Your ideal motif?
White. Pink roses. And blood red roses as well.
I like to add the element of goth in it.

Husband wearing black with blood red tie. Me in white and real blood red lipstick. And lots of eyeliner. :P muahahahahahahahaa...

8. Where do you plan to go on a honeymoon?
Fly off to Japan's Disneyland, then to Paris for some sight-seeing and shopping, then spend like 3 weeks (of pure fireworks) in a hotel room in Holland with hubby- Holland, so I can get to use some illegal stuff in Malaysia there, and spice up things a bit (as if it is not spiced up enough :P) Haha!

9. How many guests do you think you’ll invite?
Close friends, family members and those who are important to me and the husband.

Not much kott.. I prefer quality over quantity. And I'd like to know everyone who comes for the wedding.

10. Do you want an extravagant wedding or a simple wedding?
Something in between that shows my style.

11. Do you want the traditional vows or something you’d make up on your own??
Of course la I'll make up my own. Like duh!

Write something that would make me and the hubby reminisce our courting days or something like that.

12. How many layers of cake do you want to have?
Urm. 3 would do. Chocolate and cheese cake.

But with a lot of other desserts as well. Like brownies and cookies and creme brulee and strawberry with custard ... I'm a dessertarian!

13. Do you prefer having your reception at a hotel or at a simple place?
If can afford, a hotel would be great. But a simple place would also be great, but too much work for me. So, definitely something in between also, haven't really placed my mind on it.

14. When do you want to get married, evening or morning?
Evening to night. Because the lighting would make everyone coming look extra beautiful or handsome. :D (Including the newly weds)

Plus, we don't have to go under the hot sun, or wake up too early to get ready for the wedding.

15. You’d rather have your reception outdoors or indoors?
Either ways would be great.

16. Do you like a grand entrance for your groom/bride?
Of course la. I demand attention!

17. Name the song/tune you’d like played at your wedding?
Hurmmm... I never really thought about this actually. Nantila I pikir.

18. Are you a morning person or a night person?
Morning person. Night is fine with coffee. I'd probably be caught sleeping after 11pm usually. (except in O&G T_T)

19. Do you want a solemn ceremony or a light one?
Something in between.

20. What age do you want to get married?
Like I said, target wedding age would be 25. But anytime after or before would be okay. Hehe.

21. Describe your ideal husband/wife.

Physically :

Ideally would be great if I could wear high heels and he would still be inches taller than me, but I could accept it if I'm wearing high heels and I'm like one inch taller than him.

Doesn't have to be extremely good looking, tapi sedap mata memandang, and doesn't look like a psychopath killer.

Emotionally : Able to understand the career path that I am choosing. Able to lift up my spirits when I'm down. Treats me like the best buddy and shares with me his hopes, his dreams and his problems. He will be the one who wipes away my tears, and supports me along the many challenges of life.

*among the sifat that I want la*

Being able to converse fluently in English would be extremely attractive too. :P

22. Do you prefer fine dining or just the normal spoon & fork/knife?
I don't mind la. Dapat makan sudah.

23. Champagne or red wine?
Neither. Ice lemon tea. Or maybe sirap bandung +100 plus.

24. Honeymoon right after the wedding or days after the wedding?
La. Of course la right after. Buat ape nak tunggu-tunggu lagi beb!!

25. Money or household item?

Money would be great. Tapi household item pun ok gak. I don't mind really.

26. Who will pay for the bills?
Share la. Tong-tong maa.

27. Are you ready for married life?
Now, no.

28. Do you think you will still be a virgin until u get married?
I definitely hope so. :D

29. Will you always be true to your wife/husband?

InsyaAllah. That's why I'll take my time to get to know him before he becomes the husband. Understanding and tolerance is the key. I think. :P

30. How many kids do you like?
3-4? Twins okay gak. Tak yah beranak banyak kali. :P Tapi safer singleton fetuses would be preferred.

31. A new house for a newly wed or an old one?
New leh decorate modern skit. Kalo old... hurm... I would decorate accordingly too. :D

32. Will you celebrate silver wedding, gold wedding, or diamond wedding?
I don't really mind la. Tapi don't have to carik reason to celebrate our love later on kan? Nak celebrate, celebrate je ar. Haha.

33. What kind of cuisine would you like for your wedding?
Nasi minyak is so old school. Buffet ar. Ask the hubby to think about it. Leave the dessert bar thingy to me. I nak chocolate cake, brownies, ice cream, creme brulee, that strawberry thingy in Zen, cheese cake... macam macam ada....

34. Will you record your honeymoon in a cd or dvd?
Which part of the honeymoon actually? :P lols. Probably not record it. Simpan dalam hati sudah. And take lots of pics. :D

Reasons you should watch "Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging"

1. Great story line.

Aaron Johnson

2. There's this dude, called Aaron Johnson, which is totally to die for.



3. The story line is totally relatable, if you are a chick, who went out on her first date at the age of 15, and had her first boyfriend at that age too, and went through chick drama back then when you are 15.



4. The guy playing 'Robbie' is like mighty hot. Did I mention that his name is Aaron Johnson?

'Robbie'

Hehe. Celebrity crush yo. :P

4 days off

Thursday - Christmas.

Saturday and Sunday - Weekends.

Monday - Awal Muharram.

4 days off tu!

Which will be well spent sleeping, lepaking in front of tv, catching up on serial dramas...

As if! :P

Well.

At least I could wake up late and sleep in early. :)

Drama fiasco

Who says life is boring? It isn't for me. This week especially. The whole drama fiasco unfolds starting last Sunday, up to Wednesday.

Sunday

I was lazing around, preparing for the O&G clinicals by reading the schedule, when suddenly, an unknown number called. Usually I won't pick up unknown calls, because some of them are just pranks, but somehow, my gut told me that if I don't pick up this one call, the number would just call again and again and again. You get the picture.

I picked it up. It was a girl. Not even saying any greeting, she straight away bombarded me with a question "Farah, are you dating ****** ?"

Owh gosh. It's the girlfriend of that dude calling, thinking that I am having an affair with her boyfriend. So I spent like 2 minutes explaining that I not having an affair, and suddenly it became a therapy session for that girl, when she suddenly told me all her problems with that dude. *sigh* Thank God I've been to psychiatry posting, so I lent her my ears. And then she continued msging me the whole night, asking my opinions on stuff. Kalah message boyfriend weh.


Monday

When I was all tired and pissed off coming from the hospital because I couldn't answer questions the lecturers asks, and the KKM staff were mad at us because we didn't wear appropriate attires like the apron and stuff in the labour room, the people in the house just decided to have a freaking house meeting which is more like "the house vs farah and roomate and what we don't like about them meeting".

Yeah. So I was tired, pissed off and getting angrier by the second, but I just decided to not fight back (face-to-face that is) because I was doing it the easiest way possible, which is using the internet. Hence the blog entry before this. :P

Still pissed off with them though. Just that I thought becoming the bigger person and venting my anger in a better way then throwing acid at them would be better.


Tuesday

Was named as guideline person by my lecturer the day before, but during the class, I could not answer questions that he specifically asked me to read about the day before (due to the house meeting on Monday :( even more reason to hate the people).

Then he came out with a statement sort of like this "You guys are seriously below average compared to the other group. They were so hardworking they made me want to teach them more. But if you guys don't buck up, I guess our classes will just end up here, because there is no use of teaching if you guys don't know anything."

My heart dropped to the floor and I just couldn't feel better the whole day. I felt so depressed.

Coming back to my room, I got to know something awful about one of my closest friends, which I couldn't accept. Even more drama, because this actually not involves only one of them, but all 3 of them, and involves a certain guy not worth mentioning whom I despise and relationships and trust.

I just was in utter shock, I just couldn't get the information I just knew about the closest friend. So I decided to just keep the "friend drama" until after the O&G posting, then do something about it - like asking the friend whether what happened was actually true, because I seriously could not accept her anymore if it is.

Wednesday

Came to class with not enough sleep, trying really hard to memorize everything that I was supposed to read on Monday and Tuesday.

Went for on-call, and the same lecturer asked questions to me and the group. This time around, we were prepared.

Then he said "You guys are not bad after all huh? After getting some pressure from me then you guys can perform"

Wow. That statement just made my whole week worthwhile despite all the emotional turbulence. Huhu. :D

I still hate you.

And I will be continuing to hate you.

I freakingly hate you. I hate all of you.

Just because you are older than me you think you deserve my respect?

Who are you to call the shots in my life when you are lowly bitches?

Who are you?

Thinking you can win in numbers huh?

Just because there's the two of us doesn't mean you are greater than us.

Stupid shit.

I hate looking at your pathethic faces, I hate hearing your voices, and I hate living here.

I hope you freakingly passed your stupid exams so you can leave this place and leave me.

I hate you, I hate your guts, and I just hate sharing air with you.

Bitches.

I'm so freaking tired and you want to make a freaking meeting?

You think you can survive what I would say to you?

You think you could stand what I would scream at?

Shit asses.

I hope you freakingly die.

Cringing

Eww.

Eww.

Double Eww.

The words that made my roomate turn to me and say "Nape ni?"

To with I answered "Urm. Ntahlah. Eww sangat."

I was on the net, surfing, reading blogs and checking out facebook pictures.

And some really ticked my heart, and became downright annoying.

That's what's with the "eww-ism".

My roomate continued on saying "Bisingla"

She was watching her Korean series by the way, listening to them talking in Korean.

As if she understands. :P

So I did what I thought was best, close the windows which I didn't like, continue on downloading the series I wanted to watch, move away from the laptop and lie on the bed, ready to sleep. :D

Kalau dah jodoh tu..

.. takkan ke mana jugak.

Even if it is just for the moment. It's worth it.

Rants

You know what's the freaking problem?



Everywhere in the world this happens. Or every phase of your life this happens. Not that I'm old enough to experience all the phases what-so-ever.



It probably starts in high school, when you reach puberty and realize that the world isn't made out of cotton candy and lollipops. Instead, you will reach puberty, be smiled at by one person, and stabbed at the back by the very same person another second later. Yeah, life is cruel. And you just can't help it but to feel irked every time that 'one' person appear in your presence.



Maybe there are some people out there who claims 'hey, that's not true, I'm friends with everybody. Everybody loves me'. Well. Yeah. Or so you think.



There will be people who are constantly trying to push you over, who are willing to step on you to move on, who doesn't care about the feelings of others in the strive to be a better person. As they say, it doesn't matter what happens, as long as you finished it or you are at the finishing line, huh? I disagree. I believe that the way you get to the finishing line counts too. If you kill people along the way to get your Nobel prize, do you really deserve the so called achievement awards? Being a human being is not just about finishing the race, it is about the whole journey throughout the race. And obviously no one wants to end it last. Does it mean that you have to play dirty the whole way?



You know what's the worse part? When we are sitting here, panting and cursing that someone about what 'they' have taken from us - the one opportunity to answer the question, the one opportunity to stand out, the one opportunity to become better, instead of falling back, they would be the one who moves on, and we, on the other hand, stay stagnant like the stagnant water where Aedes mosquito breed.



Then you couldn't help but wonder, maybe if you can't beat them at this game, we should just join them. And try to stay focussed at not playing dirty. Which will definitely not be the goal at the end of the journey.

Status update

Back in Kampung Baru.

Currently in O&G posting.

On the first day itself, one of the lecturer's said "O&G is one of the toughest posting"

Yeah.

It is not a wonder why the peers who were in this posting snapped so easily back then.

I'm probably be that way too.

T_T

The One on Cooking

I love to eat. That is a well known fact to my friends and coursemates.

But actually, I love to cook too. It's not a hobby, it's more like a passion.

To prepare food, and then share it with family or friends.

I never really felt this way about cooking before, because back then in high school (yeah, I started to prepare dishes in high school), it was more on helping my mom prepare dishes for dinner. Or for lunch during weekends.

I didn't care about how it looked, or more importantly, how it tasted. What matters to me, is that is done. And I've done my chore for the day.

Through out the years, I began to taste more different food, savoury, sweet - you name it, and with the influence of watching Asian Food Channel or watching successful housewives in preparing meals, something ticked in me.

Maybe I could prepare food that looks and taste good too, and not just to prepare food.

After all, life is too short to eat bad food.

I also think secretly, deep down inside, every woman, or every girl, wants to be able to prepare food like Bree, in Desperate Housewives. She is able to whip up a complete meal, from appetizer up to dessert, all by herself! I feel that way. Not to the extent of to be able to prepare a cookbook (season 5 of desperate housewives), but to be able to prepare a whole complete meal would be satisfactory enough for me.

Maybe it's not too late to enroll into culinary arts, and get away from white coats, stethescope and diseases. (As if :P)

Although medicine will be my life now, but cooking will always be a passion. And I would definitely pursue it until I could be somewhat like Bree. Or maybe half of Bree. That'd be great too.

:D
