Babysteps?

Why babysteps?

Hah, ni ceq nak habaq ni. Ceq dah pi Kursus K! Excited!

Ok ok but hold your breathe dulu. No, not yet. The big day is not yet confirmed, neither is our E-day. The reason why we enrolled ourselves for the course is because we want to get some insights on the importance of marriage.  Not wedding. MARRIAGE as that is our main focus. Apart from that, we need this as we thought that by attending the course, it may can 'push' us towards the real thing. Ye ke? We shall see. Insya Allah.

A lot of people went to the course because they wanted to avoid the changes that will be made to the course, a longer one to the extend of it will be during weekdays. I'm not sure of the content of the new syllabus, but a birdie told me it is more on hands-on practices rather than just listening to the talks. But, that's just news. I'm not really sure what's the deal though. 

Anyhow, those who are not planning for marriage yet can also attend this course. No harm kan just to listen and learn something from it. Lagipun, it is compulsory for every Muslim to have the course certificate. It is one of the requirement for your marriage registration. So, it's good to get it done fast.

I went with my other half, and few friends. It was actually fun and interesting, not even a regret of having to spend my limited holidays to attend the course. There were lots of enlightening and insightful facts that  most of us are not aware of. Especially on the process of marriage (the registration and preparation) as well as on talak (divorce). It was sad to hear that the divorce rates are increasing among young couples, and many of their reasons are petty and unacceptable. 

Other than that, the course focused on stress management, life after 'the wedding', financial planning and sexual relationship between man and wife. I must say, THAT was the most interesting part. We giggled laughed like hooligans of course. The speakers are from various backgrounds and they were seriously funny in delivering the talks. Competent too. 

Do i learned anything from attending the course? I did especially on communication between our partner. Right after the course, we reflected on our relationship and questioned ourselves why sometimes it is hard to communicate with each other? Why is it there are still sulking, shouting, sighing, etc? Is it because we are lack of patience? Or understanding? Hah, hang kena pi sana and dengar ape depa nak habaq dalam kursus tu.. 

All in all, Kursus Kahwin Mont Kiara is definitely worth to go to. The place is clean and the ambience is so relax and chill; it is so easy to find parking especially on Sunday, we can just park straight in front of the building. Food was provided for us; tea on Saturday, breakfast and tea on Sunday. You need to get your own lunch, but I don't think that's like a big deal for any of you since mamak Bestari is just a poop away. Tee hee.

Mr. and I. Insya Allah Amin. Pray for us ya?

Babysteps. For now.
