Yes, time sure runs fast; in fact too fast for you to actual grasp what has been going around. Move on to another life, to stage another new beginning. With the wedding date set and the preparations under hands, it’s now time for me to reflect back on my single hood and being the last daughter of Chinthamathar and Aminah. Yeah sometimes I have mocked at Indian Muslim Bride to have the finale of their wedding with DRAMA of tears, yes that how I used to define that action, but let’s rephrase back to what actually is going through the mindset of these brides. Leaving behind familiar places, familiar routines and of all familiar faces, to start afresh on new place, new faces and a whole lot of new routines. Now talk about the huge weight of challenges that has been placed on them just within one day. NO wonder they shed tears. This wedding has really brought about changes in the mindset I had. The preparations has also brought my family members together, doing a lot of things as a Family, not that we have not been doing things together as family, but this time it’s different, its more of like appreciating the BOND THAT ONE HAS WITH FAMILY. My mum feeding me with advices on how I should behave as a good Daughter In Law, My dad advising me on financial planning and my sisters on where I should go for a good honeymoon (hehehhehehe).Gosh I cant believe am going to leave behind this literal comfort zone, where everyone understood the reason behind my laughter’s, tears and crankiness. Well, inevitable as it seen, I have to start packing in the values and advices that has been passed down by MY FAMILY MEMBERS and be a good representative representing my family values…..SO don’t mock at me when I’m doing my finale at my wedding with tears and HUG….for all reasons behind it has been stated above. I have not said this to my family members before, but using this post, I would like to SAY I LOVE YOU GUYS!:)

January 30, 2007 @ 6:55 amHey Babe..you’re gona tie the knot soon too…yeah…am happy for you gal!:)yeap…we cld have a blog for all newly weds and share the bliss to come….heheheh
January 30, 2007 @ 5:16 pmheh aneeshaa…has the feeling finally sunk in? i cant seem to accept all that. it seems weird. ytd shafik n i got our ic address re-done, n seeing the same add on both of our ic, felt super extremely weird i tel u. i just told him, “it feels like im moving in with my best friend! thats all!” maybe coz im having my own flat, i do not feel the pressure of being the daughter in law. basically i doubt i’ll stay over at my inlaws place(lack of space) so they’ll never get to know how much i adore watching cartoons early in the morning!
i cant imagine wat u r going thru. but this all seems too imaginary for me. a few years back, i was thinking, when m i gonna marry the man of my dreams. now it juz seems like another dream with lots of money n stress involved. i find it so weird that my parents dun give me the weird look when they see me with shafik (u know that weird look, they would give when he is just a BF). i find so many things weird. i dunno. maybe im just losing it. hahaha.
January 30, 2007 @ 5:27 pmKami, u sound like a damsel in distress..Just remember not all five fingers are the same…Problems can come in different forms. And ya I wish and hope ma mom in law watch cartoons with me esp Spongebob hehe, she can be Squidwart!!!Gegege
