Still stucked here at KLIA.. so you should know what the result is :( .. There were 12 of us on standby.. & one of them is my colleugue's hubs.. hahaha..what a coincidence.. I think it's becuz of the school holidays, everyone wanted to "balik kampung".
Thanks to the wifi for filling up my time... at least i can use this opportunity to update my blog which i've left for quite sometimes....
Will start with my cousin Fanny's wedding which happens on 08.08.08.. what a nice date ya...she's so lucky to have this date as her wedding date...
Really had a blast during her wedding... both of my best friends Elmenah & Alice were there too....haven't met them for quite sometimes now...Even my ex-boss Cindy were there too.. sorry Cin skijap jak can chit-chat with u :).. was too busy dancing hahaha... And not forgetting to both of my dear cousins, Gobing & Cilla (the newlywed) for forcing me to drink one glass of bir in one go.. never done that b4 even during my wedding day.. the taste was sucks...no worries, did not get drunk.. unlike the bride of the day... she really "kaput" during her wedding receiption..kesian....i think she was so happy & excited....she just entertain all the "requests"..Not only her..even hubs also "kaput"...his duty was taking care of the bar..well understood & justified la kan..hehee...
I would also like to take this opportunity to convey my biggest THANK to my dearest friend Jurra for her GREAT job...the flower girls dress looks beautiful rite..for those who didn't know..the flower girl dresses were custom made by her.. Thank so much for making my cousin's wedding a memorable one :)..
Here are some photos taken...And to the bride & groom...
Last weekend was my cousin Spencer's wedding - the wedding mass was held at St Michael Church Penampang followed by Wedding receiption at KDCA. Congrats to the newly wed Spencer & Vera :) !!!
Once again, Andrea was chosen to be the flower girl :)... and she was really excited about it cuz she knows that she'll be wearing a flower girl dress + getting new shoes + hairdo + make up. Was late to church due to spending too much time "setting" my hair in the saloon....*mana la tau kan if mo curl need longer time to do..1st time bah kasi curl..hehehe*...church starts at 9.30 am but reached saloon at 8.10 a.m. Luckily i've done Andrea's hairdo + make up before i left to saloon...
Met with cousin Tee & catch up with each other...lupa pulak ambil gambar together-gether kan Tee... :).. The kids too were having so much fun playing, running, jumping, dancing etc...you name it!!
Next 3 weeks will be my cousin Fanny's wedding, I will also be busy by then cuz i need to manage the flower girls (that's the job assigned to me)...and yes, Andrea will be one of them again...she's so lucky la...i only experienced it once during my younger age..hehehe... on the other hand, i'm also excited cuz my best buddy Jurra will be making the flower girl dress for the flower girls and so far she's doing great :). This is her progress so far.
Hmm...what else to say..i'm blurr rite now....just view the pics + video la ya....

Last but not least, Andrew caught the audience attention by entertaining everyone with his impromtu performance..as a backup dancer while the singer sang "Aku Stacy"... which is also one of his fav song...apa ndak...almost everyday mommy listen to that song ....hehehe... I didn't realize he was on the stage till my cousin's hubs told us.."Look who's there on the stage..." Me & hubs look at each other & can't believe he actually did that....Where did he get the energy from???!!! He ended his dance quite well though..watch the video & u'll see...
Had an enjoyable yet tiring trip to Tenon during last weekend. It was my cousin Marcella's wedding on Saturday morning and we all travel to Tenom on the day itself. Convoyed together with my sisters, uncles, aunties & cousins and started our journey as early as 5.30 a.m., reached Tenom town at about 9.40 a.m.(about 4 hrs journey), just nice to attend the wedding mass which started at 10 a.m. Luckily i've done my make up & simple hairdo at home (though i've to wake up at 4 a.m. just to do that but it has save my time a lot:)). My cousin Cilla married to our unimate's (Stanly Chung) brother and met Standly a.k.a Ah Chung in the church..he's now has 3 boys :).
Once again, CONGRATS to the newly wed..
This was my 1st time attending a Murut traditional wedding, and i tell you it was such an interesting yet a scary experience. Interesting cuz the wedding took place at the field with a tent sorrounding it which can fit 40 tables and the food was being served instead of buffet (6 dishes all together). Food was not bad, quite tasty. And guess where did they prepare the food??? All was done in my cousin's house!!! And you know what, the cost for all that is quite cheap, only RM160 per table, and this has include the tables+chairs+tent!!!!
The scary part was, you'll be forced to drink the "tapai" from the "tajau" no matter what your gender is, u can't afford to refuse...i manage to escape by telling them that "I'm pregnant" & they believed me..hahaha..thanks to my buldging belly..hehehe!! Hubs also manage to escape cuz Andrea was crying really hard while my cousin pulling his hand!! Maybe she thought that his daddy is being hurt...very caring la my daughter :)..They'll drink till the max you know..i can see a lot of them "ampai2x" suda...scary!!
Went home on the next day and reached home around 2 p.m.
Here are some of the photos taken..
