Kak Farhah's Wedding

Wedding ceremony/kenduri/reception is very well-known activity when the school holidays are coming. I can't figure out why they like to do these event during cuti sekolah. Maybe the students in the family are on holiday so that easy to ask for help? Or maybe because it's easier also to balik kampung for the kenduri, as kalau x cuti sekolah, the children need to skip school.

Up till today, i received 3 invitations to wedding ceremony. Kak farhah was on the 29th, Kak Ira (mc'd ex co-worker) on the 20th Dec and Kak Sheila (senior Civil) on the same day. not sure if i can make it for both Kak Ira and Kak Sheila but I know I couldn't say no to Kak Farhah's reception.

So, last Saturday i went to Seri Manjung for Kak Farhah's reception. Ikmal, the husband said the akad on the night before. The convoy from USM campus consist of at least 5 cars, heading towards Manjung at 10.00am. Made a short stop at Bagan Serai and reached at Kak Farhah's around 12.30pm.

Took a rest, then had our lunch before Kak Farhah called us (the girls) to her room for photo snapping.


Ikmal's rombongan came at around 1pm. Kak Farhah headed to him. Auuww~ So comel la both of them together.



Ok. Kak Ida wasn't suppose to be the bride'smaid. Sangat x aci, ok! But, nvm.. bagi the kakaks jadi pengapit, ambik berkat yer. hehehe..

The ex-4129-roommates.



So after the ceremony was almost over, we took off. But not to campus. To Lumut for jalan2 & shopping a lil. Zidah went back earlier with seniors as she had an emergency. So, it was just me, Salmi, Amalina with Awal who went there.

At Lumut jetty. It reminds me of our Polymer trip to Pangkor early 2007. I miss them!!

The polymer girls: Amalina, Salmi & me

We bumped into Salwa, Ema & Hanizah, the EE ladies there.

I did a lil shopping there. Hurm.. a lil? Boleh la.. As i'm going back this coming weekend. kene la beli banyak skit rite.


After the shopping-shopping, we headed back to campus & arrived at around 9pm. So tired, yet so hapy with the trip. Happy to see Kakak getting married & happy to go jalan-jalan.

The next day was the bertandang ceremony at Ikmal's in Teluk Intan. I didn't go there but Kak Husna, Kak Ida, Najwan & Norrish went. I wished to join them, but some things made me unable to. So, these are some pics taken from Najwan/Norrish.

Confession.
Saya. Sangat. Cemburu.


To the cutest couple ever,

Kak Farhah & Ikmal

Congratulations.
Semoga kekal bahagia ke akhir hayat.
Amin......

Walking down memory lane

Lately i've been downloading songs from the 90's and early 2ooo's, in the other words, songs i listened back in primary & high schools. most of them were boy-bands and girl-groups. I can sing along most of the songs which some i haven't heard for years. Back then, there will be one of the member in each group will be my short-term boyfriend, until another group came up with cuter member. If you guys are around my age, do you still remember them, too?


Boyzone was one of the earliest group from Republic of Ireland. They were Ronan, Stephen, Mikey, Keith and Shane. Some of their famous were Picture of you, No matter what, and Baby can i hold you. They were also the mentor of next Irish boyband, Westlife.


Posh, Scary, Baby, Ginger and Sporty were their nicknames. Popular with their hits such as Say you'll be there, Wannabe and Spice up your life, also starring in their own SpiceWorld:The Movie, the Spice Girls gave big impact in each girls life then. Fans are glad that they reunited for the tour concert this year.

N'Sync means how "in sync" their voices are; also a play on the letters of each member's first names - JustiN, ChriS, JoeY, JasoN and JC. They were from Florida, and some of their killer songs are Tearin' up my heart, I want you back, Bye Bye Bye and It's gonna be me.

Lee, Jimmy & Spike were the member of well-known British boyband, 911. How do you want me to love you, All I want is you, Bodyshakin' and Don't make me wait are some of their hits. The band split up in February 2000 , when they announced their break-up live on Chris Moyles Radio 1 show.

The unique girls, T-Boz, Left Eye and Chilli was a contemporary R&B, hiphop and pop group known as TLC. I like their "Unpretty" so much as the song always reminds me to be thankful with what I have and to be just who I am. Lisa "Left-Eye" Lopes was killed in a car accident in Honduras in early 2002, just before the release of TLC's fourth LP, 3D.

AJ, Kevin, Brian, Nick and Howie-D. Everyone knows them (except Baiti, i think. She had this not-into-boyband thing), the BackStreet Boys. With the hit, I'll never break you heart, they became the most successful debut artist in the world in 1996. They are in Guiness Books of Records for lots of thing and one of it is "First group since The Beatles to achieve 30 million sales of two discs" (2001).

A Canadian country music & pop/rock band composed of brothers Scott, Clint, Bob and Dave Moffatt. Clint, Bob and Dave are triplets, but only Clint and Bob are identical twins. The Moffatts came to promote their album Chapter 1: A new begining in Malaysia in 1999. I went to their showcase in Tower Records KL Plaza. They are famous for hits I miss you like crazy and I'll be there for you.

Five bad boys withe the power to rock you!
Yes, they rock my world! 5ive are a British boyband with the members Rich, Scott, Abs, J and Sean. Slam Dunk da Funk, When the lights go out, and Until the time is through are some of their hits. They disband in 2001. 4 of the five original members briefly reformed the group in 2006, but only 7 months after announcing a comeback, Five made an announcement via their official website they would disband, again!

Ok! Maybe some or most of you won't be recognizing this group, called The Boyz. The group compromises Kane, Salvatore, T-Soul, Flow and Stephane, and from Germany. They have two singles - Round & Round and Let me show you the way; which is available in 3 other version, Italian, French and Spanish. Anyhow, those 2 were their only songs i ever know. I can't believe I know this band existed! And I found their mp3 and video!! 'Let me show you the way' is one of my all time fave song tho.




And mostly, back then, in high school i was madly madly and madly in love to this British singer. Not a member of any boyband. He's the one and only....









Anthony Kavanagh!!!

a.k.a. Kavana

OMG!!! he is like the love of my love. i signed my name Mrs. Julia Kavanagh when i was in form 2. Crazy, I know! But what could i do? He is just so handsome, cute, adorable, gorgeous, lovely, and ..... tempting (?!). Funky love, MFEO, Crazy Chance, Will you wait for me, Special kind of something. I could listen to them all day long. I had a friend, Maygala recorded by VHS a Kavana Special Kind of Something Show aired in NTV7 in 1999 because my house had problem with NTV7 signal back then.

There were also other groups like Hansons, 98 degrees, Westlife, Code Red (ring a bell? Famous for their This is our song), Destiny's Child and S Club 7.

For those who also miss their teenage life and hoping to find their songs, feel free to download it from my 4shared folder.

My weekend at home

I went home last weekend for some reason, as well as to see mom as her birthday just a few days back. Went back home on Thursday afternoon by bus. On Friday, went to Low Yat Plaza with Dba and Nurin. Before that, went to lunch with mom and took Nurin to mom's workplace, Kompleks Antarabangsa to see the pond where the fishes are so big. Then only we went to Lowyat, where Nurin called a pc montor as "TV". huhu~ i bought my baby lappy batery as my current batery is weak and only lasted for about half an hour, and sometime didn't even charges after hours of charging.





The next day, i took mom to BTS SushiKing for her belated-birthday lunch. We were accompanied cousins Effa, Angah, Kak Alice and Najihah. Why Sushi? Because I miss sushi so much and i want to ask Kak Alice to try one! Hehehe

Mom with the salmon tepanyaki set

My salmon fried rice + croquette




Then, we went to karaoke at KTV News , Imbi Plaza.






Ini semua gara-gara Effa, ya! Attention to Encik Ikhwan: I sang Hindi song at last!! Hahaha. Besides normal karaoke songs, we sang 90s songs like 911's How Do You Want Me to Love You, BSB's Quit Playing Games with my Heart, N Sync's It's Gonna be Me. We totally miss our teenage year, ok! And the finale song was Spice Girl's Mama, dedicated to the one and only, birthday-woman.

On the way home, got phone call from Auntie Rozi asking if i would like to join them for dinner and movie and to spend the night over. Twins Ekha & Kaina were home already. Thanks for the dinner movie, uncle & Auntie. =)
