My Wedding

Its called rezeki not luck..

I have received a few emails about the nikah that i had...which alhamdulillah I'm so grateful for everything....but there was 1 email that's still in my mind..

this girl email just to say how much she envies my life, and how i had a perfect wedding...and how lucky i am for everything.......

so now i'm going to tell a story about rezeki...Allah swt is very fair to all his ummah with his rezeki..there is nothing in life comes from luck...if you feel your friend is lucky because she is rich, trust me, dalam Islam terang2 Allah SWT dah explain, you work hard ,Allah SWT will reward...but she must have spent her life, mostly with the maid bringing her up or alone because parents are too busy making money...

if you feel your friend is lucky coz she is really pretty, trust me behind that beauty there is uglyness..like she may have a bad personality, In one of the hadith Rasulullah SAW mentioned, if you marry someone for her beauty, then you will only get her beauty, but Allah swt cannot promise happiness..but Allah SWT promise, if you want happiness in marriage find a wife that is close to Allah swt and will help the husband to bring him closer to Allah swt and vice versa...

The journey of my life has been more tough than easy..and Allah swt has been very fair to me about not giving me a perfect life..and poeple that are close to me will know that...

1 of biggest lesson i have learnt from my mother is to accept rezeki masing2.. some Allah swt give them money but not happiness..while others Allah SWT may give happiness but not money..and others of course, but either way, Allah swt has promised in fairness within all the ummah...and we as muslims should always believe that...Life is full of dugaan..and all this dugaan is to see whether we become closer to Allah swt or syaitan...

happiness comes from within...its what we make out of  our on life...because we can never be happy with what we have, if we keep wanting what other people have..please remember that girls...Be appreciative with what we already have in life...then mashaAllah you will find yourself having a sense of peace within you...

Having a nikah like mine, does not guarantee me happiness in my marriage...having the most beautiful wedding, does not give anybody easy happiness in life...look at celebrity weddings for example, they have everything, money, looks, and million dollar weddings, and yet they are not happy...and get divorce after a very short period of time...

A happy marriage, comes from alot of effort from both sides..inshaAllah..May Allah swt, bless us with baraqah and happiniess in our marriage..

I just want to say don't envy for what others have,because you don't know the story behind it...

for myself it took me years of dugaan filled with cheatings, lies, heartbreaks even physical abuse and death before even meeting my hubby now...

even after we met, like everyone else, there are up and downs to every relationship...

and that my dear girls is the reality of life

wassalam,

Krabi honeymoon - Aonang princeville

Oh my..i owe so many entries,I'm def going through a bloggers block (my own version of a writers block) hehehe, hence why i haven't been updating......

but i'm def going to start with my honeymoon first...while waiting for pictures for my official photographer...

MashaAllah we had a pretty amazing honeymoon in krabi...it started of pretty amazing as well..as we reached LCCT we bumped to or famous blogger WLT....we were on the same flight..we said hi, and both had to apologise for not going to each others wedding coz they both fell on the same day...WLT sempat gave her wedding favour..thank you so much dear.

when i got in the plane, i so happy because my 1 friend who is working in air asia was the head cabin crew for the flight..of course kiotrg dpt special treatment sikit....hehehe...

flight to krabi is short only 1 hour and 15 mins..its one of those flight, where just afer you finish your meal, when I'm about to fall asleep for my short nap, plane dah nak land..hehehehe

when we got there, there was a hotel transfer waiting for us..can you imagine just the 2 of us, in such a big van..i was looking for WLT to say bye, tapi tak nampak..so off we left the airport...it took us about 20 mins to sampai the hotel...

...ohh before i forget, i choose Aonang Princeville for our honeymoon because its the only certified halal hotel i could find in aonang.. from the pictures i saw the hotel was so-so ..the reviews from tripadvisor pun not so great..so i went with very low expectations of the hotel...also we took the cheapest room, because this hotel is quite pricey comparing if you take goholiday package, but as always for me halal food is more important than anything, it was a sacrifice we both were more than willing to make...because we both LLLOOOVE food..heheheh

check in was smooth...they straight away knew who we were...so terus they brought us to our room...

when i opened the door, i was like ehhh... i didnt pay for this room....guess what girls????....they upgraded us to the most expansive room of the hotel..the honeymoon suite..i was sooooooooooo happy...habib smiled at me...from his face i can tell he was telling me, see told you everything is going to be ok....mashaAllah, i can only thank Allah swt for all the good things that happen during our honeymoon...

this is the pickup van..so besar kan....this was me at the entrance of the hotel...
for fun just wanted to show my inai before honeymoon..by the 3rd day in krabi, everything dah hilang...so sad...






Not that they just upgraded our room, they did the whole honeymoon flower deco as well...for 6 days we were there, they gave us nothing but good service...on top our the 3 island trips, which of course will be my next entry, they also gave us free dinner for 2 nights...and free spa for 90 mins for the both of us...
Our room was full with everything we needed...we even had 2 flat screen 32inch TV 1 at the bed, the other one at the lounge...hehehe...fruits everyday dapat free..in the room pun ada kiblat finder plus they provided us with 2 sejadah...
...room is the same standart as Avilion in PD.....my pictures are from my digi cam, so tak cantik sgt...
Location of this hotel is the best...we were right opposite the aonang beach, and smack in the middle of aonang street...we can either walk to the left or right, and both sides got so many things to explore...

MashaAllah..i was soooo happy staying here...we ate like crazy....
price for our total 6 days, for whoever that is interested, kindly e-mail me...

oh ya, just for your info, i tak beli the package though matta fair or air asia...i e-mailed the hotel straight, and they customed a package according to my length of stay and activities that we wanted to do...

p/s: after this i will do entry on food, shopping and island hoping trip in krabi...

How we met...

I've been meaning to write the entry from beginning itself but i never had the time...so finally i'm forcing my self to do it now!!!!

ok it was early 2007, I just got back from a great holiday with my girlfriends to langkawi..oh btw, if u guys want a simple holiday please stay at malibest, pantai cenang..i love that place..ok back to my story, I had dinner with one of my very close guy friend back then ROD...

So me & rod, and my 2 bridesmaids went for dinner in hartamas...and i complained to Rod, "omg i've been single for so long, u have so many guy friends, introduce la me to one of them".
I swear Rod knows a WHOLE load of guys here.... And Rod, was like...why sabby? And i told him.."i'm lonely, i hate that i go through life everyday having nobody special to share it with, apart from my friends and family of course" but having a partner is different...U guys know the difference right...hehehe...anyway..he was reluctant at first, for a reason that I can't seem to remember at all...so finally after i pujuk him for a while, he took out his phone...he was like" ok which guy do u want"?? i was like "what you want me to choose now?" he said " ya lah"..and do you guys want to know what rod did next?

He opened his picture file in the phone and started flipping pictures like a catalog, and showed me some of his guy friends..hehehe.OMG it was sooo funny..us girls was just laughing like crazy, and had a great time criticising on the many guy's picture wesaw in his phone...i was so malu at that time though..secretly....

Rod was like "come one sabby, just choose 1...and then i told him" i want a nice guy, no more bad boys,just a decent boy and he cannot smoke" he said.."hmmm non smoker...ohhh ok i have one for you...you like pretty boys kan?" we all just laughed...So he showed a picture of himself with habib, who just got back from perhentian(oh ya perhentian is fav island), while we were in langkawi.."hmm so he likes beaches too" rod said "yup just like you" and then i said, "OK hook us up"...so the conversation ended here..

All of us had our dinner...and then after dinner rod was like " sabby, he is here already" i was like WHAT?? today ke, are U serious, are you insane?? i was SOOOO not dressed, and i wasn't prepared to meet him..Rod was like, " ok too late he is here already"..urgh i was soo angry and nervous..and there he was walking towards our table .....Love at first sight?????.......















hmmm...yeah right

Habib came with like 5 people at the time..so there was like 10 people at our table..Me and habib, didn't say a word the whole night..he sat sooo far..and me and my girls, were giggling quietly and said, ok this guy is soooo not my type....

so a few weeks went by..and habib was completely off my mind..even the next day i dah lupa, coz i knew he was not my type...Habib was so berisi..and i was petite...i was only 44kgs at the time, and i was very mean..i never went out with Big guys...

one day, i got a call, it was habib...we finally spoke for the first time...so we were chitchatting...and i thought in my mind, oh crap...The more i talked to him the more i know he is not my type...

so a few days went by, he started calling me more often, sadly we still didn't have much connection......I was a working girl who was looking for stability in a decent guy after my worst relationship breakup, wheras habib was still studying, looking for just a steady...we were at different places in life...

It was one fine day, when habib called and asked me out...I was really trying to avoid it...but he was so serious..so he made a deal with me " we go out on 1 date, if still no connection, then thats it" and I finally agreed...

our first date was at Curve...We had tea at Winter warmers...oh ya it was the first time we spoke face to face...Guess what...I actually had soooo much fun.after that we went out again....and again...

and again...heehehe

..after a few more outings...we put the whole life issue aside and decided to just hang out for fun, " we both agreed to a "nothing serious" relationship..

yeah right..coz its 2010 and InshaAllah in 4 days, he is going to be my husband...

the couple of years, has been the most difficult years of my life..when i first met habib, i was a selfish girl, who only cared about my reputation, who i hung out with and my looks...shallow kan?

He sorta change me a little in that sence...made me less shallow then i use to be...through think and thin, habib was there the whole time....through every drastic life changing decisions, pmses, through every bad emotions, my dear habib still stuck by me.

oh do you guys want to know something...even when habib first met me, he had the intentions to change me..jahatkan, so much for accepting me for who I am..

But Alhamdulillah, after a few bad incidents in my life.. Allah SWT gaven me hidayah to move to a better place..to live a life which has meanings to it...for the first 23 years of my life, i never knew the answer to what is my purpose of living in the world...
Its funny how i finaly found the answer.and the answer is sooo simple..Something that we have been thought since small..an answer as simple as being a Muslim...Ohh I will get to that chapter one day..on what I mean as just being a Muslim..there is a much deeper meaning to it, than what has been thought to us in school...

wassalam,
