Dilla Karim aida Jun and Sabariah
Venue : The Ascott KL
Date : 11-12 December 2010
Twas my 2nd "bridal shower" in my entire life, before I got hitched to a man.
It has always been my wildest dream to have a "birthday" or "bachelorette" party in a unit of apartment, hotel or what nots. And so Alhamdulilah it was granted ;)
My lovely girls from highschool + June whom I met at Matrics UIA organized my second (and proly the last) bridal shower at The Ascott KL. The unit was so beautiful, the food was great and the best thing was the awesome company.
Fad BBMed me ajak go air terjun, but few days later she said that "I'm booking you on this date from this time to that time" and I said ok. I didn't know what was she up to. I didn't know the others' involvment either. On that Friday night, I inquire from Fad, is there any specified colour, do I have to bring anything or whatnots, and the informed me the necessaries.
On Saturday afternoon, she fetched me at my house with Sab and June, and all the stuff they wanted to bring to the place. I was still clueless, but I knew the place already since June made an invitation picture at FB, mentioning the venue time date and whatnots. I've heard of The Ascott, but surely I have never been there.
Once we arrived at The Ascott, we went into the unit which was gorgeous, and they started doing the necessaries including making a banner which says "Shael Bride To Be", susun the food, buat air and whatnots. We then went to KLCC to see Aida, whilst Fad went to get helium ballons with Sarat.
After so many things were done, we then went back to the unit and everything was nicely decorated with banner, balloons, gift bags, games etc. Oh, did I mention that Fad got all tshirts printed with "Bride" and "Bridesmaid"..? Mine of course the "Bride" in pink colour tshirt, and the rest in teal written "Bridesmaid".
And so the night was really a good night with the theme song by BEP "Tonight's Gonna Be A Goodnight". I enjoyed their company and didn't really know how to say thank you. All I can say until today is "THANK YOU FOR SUCH A MEMORABLE WEEKEND!"
Oh, it didn't end there :) The next morning, after breakfast (of last night's left over yang still sgt sedap) we went up to the level where the swimming pool is located. Brought along some danish, water to drink, balloons for prop, the cake, camera and ourselves. After a few shots (or rather many shots) were taken on top, after the cake cutting session, we had a somehow "more emotional" session where the girls gave their speech and what nots. And that part made me went all teared up, ESPECIALLY when Fad had hers (am still terharu when I'm writing this post)
I still remember the night I burst into tears after we had a karaoke session and after party at Murni's SS2 KJ (there were Sab, Fad and June). I still remember that time because personally I don't cry in front of my friends (except Mai who was my roomate in Gombak, and because I could not hide from her obviously). I still remember when I was so down due to a really heartbreaking news and I had no one to talk to (because I didn't want to tell my mother/parents) but I had Fad to console me. And the rest of the girls, everytime. I hope this is a right decision ever made for my entire life insha Allah.
Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow.
Don't walk behind me, I may not lead.
Just walk beside me and be my friend.

To:
Aida : Yes, we just got closed since just recently and I've never been more grateful to have u in my awesome girlfriends circle. You're so nice that one day you'll find a nice partner specially created for you, insha Allah :)
Sab : She doesn't know the existence of this blog, but she has been a nice friend since I knew her in high school. She's the most vain friend as she never had any candid shots (not in my storage it is), she is always a camera ready. She's getting hitched soon, and all the best in your preparations!
June : We met in Matrics, then Gombak until present. You're one of the most supportive friend, very positive too. Glad our friendship went this far, and I hope it'll be forever #hugs
Fadilla Karim : The longest girlfriend ever. I knew her since before I knew my future husband. I went through a lot of happy and sad things with her after my mother. I can share so many things with her that may not be shared either with my mother, or my future husband. There were ups and downs in our friendship and I am sorry if I've ever done anything wrong to you that were visible or non-visible. I have known you since forever and I wish I could still have you as a special friend until we become old. I could not stop my tears when I'm writing this, which indicates that I am so grateful to have you as my bestest friend ever. Some people might go, but I hope we don't. Thank you for everything, thank you for all the efforts and thank you for your time when I needed you. Can't wait until you become my bestman on my big day. Lastly, THANK YOU FOR BEING A GREAT FRIEND IN AND OUT. I WUV YOUUUUUU
