Guests List Dilemma

You see, I'm contemplating on a lot of things right now. I'm done contemplating on my wedding dress last month and thank God I have supportive girlfriends who will constantly 'shout' and 'pull' me away from all of my ridiculous temptations! Well, not actually ridiculous but on the things that I don't need for my wedding. 

A girl can only dream. Sigh.

So updates on preparations. Things are on its place for now, but you never know what may come during the last minute of time. As for now, I am currently doing my guests list, and oh my God, guest list is hard to do! Contemplating AGAIN on who to invite! You feel like inviting the whole world but you know it's just so impossible. "Si Polan ni kena ajak sebab dia selalu tegur I dalam lift" or " Si Bilan ni pun la sebab we go a long way tapi sekarang dah tak tegur dah" and bla bla bla. If only my hall can fit thousands of people but unfortunately no. The more, the merrier right? SIGH. 

Here's a guide of how to cut down on your guests which a friend recommended to me when she was doing her guests list two years ago! Read about how she organized her wedding in her blog. Very organized and so so helpful. We share notes ok?

I am sooo forwarding this to my  bride-to-be friends. Just in case they wanted to invite the whole wide world like me!

Thanks babe! It does help!

Meema's Big Day

Ema and Pez is married. That means.. I'm next! 

Ahaha. It's not about me now..

Anyway, the Akad Nikah, Reception and bertandang for Ema was absolutely beautiful and all of us had fun so much. Everyone looked good as well.

Congratulations Meema and Ankepeth!

The beautiful pelamin by Ema's cousin. Good job gile.

One of the hantaran by Pez. Ema was proposed by this cake a year ago and it's also Ema's fave.

 Lovely

Have fun making babies Ema ;-P

The Magical FIR

Got this from Wani Johari, she made some research about the FIR and it's magic! ;) 

"I'm wondering how fir in corsets work. Googled but not well and fully described. How do the Japanese 'inject' the fir into the thread?"

Someone asked me this question and after some research done, the below answers it all :)

The FIR comes from Tourmaline (mineral crystal) which are crushed to extremely small pieces and weaved into the fibers of PB.

Far Infrared fiber refers to fiber that ‘emits’ far infrared rays. It is usually made from 95% polypropylene and 5% special lead-free ceramicsutilizing our patented technologies. The ceramic is the key for ‘emitting’ the far infrared rays.

The ceramic that ‘emits’ FIR is commonly called bio-ceramic. Bio-Ceramic is made from many different kind of ceramics mixed with mineral and crystal such as Tourmaline.

The mixture is heated together at 1600 degrees centigrade to form the FIR emitting ceramic. After cooling down, it becomes the lead free, bio-ceramic with FIR emitting properties.

Around 1986, it was found in a research station in Japan that, even though tourmaline was broken down in smaller pieces, a positive and a negative electrode existed on both end of the crystal, and the electrodes never disappeared unless tourmaline was boiled near 1000°C.

The bio-ceramic is then ground into micro particles in nano scale and inseminated into polypropylene during the polypropylene fiber forming process.

The fiber is then stretched, twisted and made into various forms for various needs.

Unlike soaking or coating process, with the insemination process, the bio-ceramic particles stay inside of the fiber and they cannot be dropped from washing.

Because the bio-ceramic particles are in nano scale; they are so small and can stay inside the fiber no matter how thin it is.

Once the FIR fiber is manufactured, it could be made into anything that people like such as waist wrap, knee bands, underwear etc.

Tourmaline crystal is not cheap and the process of weaving the Tourmaline into the FIR fiber required some patented technologies from Japan. So, it explains why Premium Beautiful corset seems to be expensive.

How can the bio-ceramic emit far infrared? Will there be any side effects? The principle is very simple.

It is a well-known fact that human body constantly emits thermo energy.

When the bio-ceramic is stimulated by the thermo energy of human body, it converts it into the far infrared rays and reflects it back into the human body. So the far infrared ray emitted by the far infrared fiber is really powered by our own body and there are no known side effects.

So just imagine when you wear Premium Beautiful, your body is wrapped in precious CRYSTAL!!

HENCE LADIES, WEAR IT & FEEL IT FOR YOURSELF. YOU WILL BE AMAZED AT HOW IT CAN TRANSFORM YOUR BODY :)

Marchesa Nude Pink Dress

Minus the bulu-bulu and sleeveless, I want something similar to this as my wedding dress.

There's something about nude/ dusty pink that attract me much. Always.

Too much?

A girl can only dream! ;)

Dress:  Marchesa

In a Rut? Nahh

You know when we complain about our job; how tiring and stagnant it is, this la, that la, but the truth is.. deep down inside, we love what we do. Well, in my case that is.

I'm in the academic line and I have to admit, as someone who is (still) young and energetic, maybe I need something that is on-the-go and a bit more challenging? Not that I'm saying being a lecturer is easy (trust me it's not!), but the best word to describe my feeling is...


a) complacent/ comfort zone
b) 'tepu'
c) bored? 


I'm in a rut perhaps?


But I still love my profession. I'm assuming that this could be just a phase. 


So, in order for me to overcome my above 'feelings',  I turn to my other means of 'profession'. Not really my main income and the utmost priority, but just merely to boost up my income. But I discover other things as well. Not just an extra income but...


a) Fun!
b) Friendship
c) Positivity

Like this. Fun times with these group of positive friends.


We went crazy in this shop. Wait till you buy a bracelet and see the charms! Runnnnn!


Looking forward for another meet-up girls.

Tony Starrrkkkk!

After much hectic week with work, PB business and wedding preparation, I finally got to watch Avengers and I think it was a pretty awesome movie. 8/10. 

Me   : B, which one do you like?

Mr. Z: Of course Tony Stark! He's me!

Me   : Errrr..

O.M.G. Barf. Kasi chance je la.

Of Students and Banana Leaf Rice

It was the last day of exam, and we, the lecturers, decided to bring our international students for some culinary feast at... a banana leaf restaurant! It's not just about the food, but eating out of banana leaf is also part of a culture. Totally fun and hilarious too.

The best part of my job is the students. And the activities that we do.

Do you think I'm ready to leave this for something else?

Hmmmm....

Diamonds are Forever!

We were here at the MIECC to watch two of our dearest leaders of our group DDM Aliah Nasreen and DSM Nadia Bakly. They're diamonds, the highlights of the night after a year of embarking in this fun business. 5 figures income anytime for these ladies.

Congratulations girls! ;)

Awards receiver! Aliah received DDM and DSM award as well car fund! Audi A4 soon? And Nadia Bakly received her DDM award after 8 months in this business. Cepat gile.

The early birds.

With the great leader of PB, Hanis Haizi

Last but not least, my biggest supporter. Thanks dear for being my date that night ;)
