i m getting kinda feverish counting down to what is the beginning of a major new chapter in my life. i even have this neat little notebook (how primitive, but i happen to adore my handwriting.. heh) where i have begun to jot down the list of guests, the ingredients needed, the trays of gifts, the decoration, the expenditure and what-nots. i have an accountant and finance manager to whom i entrust my tunang funds for my expenditure, but shes not reliable cos it seems she prefers using her own money to pay for the stuffs and refuse to claim them til i force her to, so i m down to keeping track of the expenditure as well... sigh... mums.... *shakes head*

have been ironing out the last minor details and buying the miscellanous essentials this past week with mum. so far, so good. its gonna be a small affair. everything, from the decor to the gifts, is gonna be simple. fuss-free, non-cluttered. lets hope everything goes as planned...

off we went to geylang on wed, having animated, fairly loud discussions deciding what to buy, after which, feeling a bit off-beat and tired having exhausted our 2000-word per day quota. that was when we bumped into, ahem, my potential bapak and mak-mertua! my mum was a little ahead of me, and apparently the first to notice them. so she just looked back at me and smiled. my bapak mertua was clearly smiling back but he din seem to register who we are cos he has this apparent blur smile on his face, like, "saper ni 2 pompuan senyum2 kat aku?"

so then of cos, i had to call out "cik..." and grab their attention. heh.... first thing that came to my mind: 'dam, i m wearing tight top and jeans.' my mak mertua looked at me up and down, u.... so takut...

thank goodness we hadnt eaten our arnolds chicken yet, or she'd have seen my tummy cos being the glutton that i am, i would have surely had my fill... and then some.... ppzztt....
