2nd Jakarta trip

Good morning!!

Hows evryone been? Its been a crazy few days for me.. But the good news is my wedding stuff is almost settled... well not really but were getting there. Being bogged down with a mountain load of work always makes me feel like blogging. Procrastination is such a wonderful sin. So jakarta was dirty and crazy jammed. And my dress isnt ready. It will be shipped to me in the next couple of days/week. Im not angry that it isnt done eventho i went all d way. coz i love them too much. i love my designer, the store owner and all their staff!! they're the nicest most accomodating people ever!! AND they FED ME FOOD!! so that makes them one of my fav people in the world!! like if there was a big flood and i was the only one who has a big huge ship to save mankind, i would pick these people over u guys who have never fed me. So really, think about it ok. im free most weekends.

We did the fittings for my dresses and i swoooned!! I looked so pretty!!! i promise!! like people in the store who were shopping came over and were staring smiling and going oooohhhh and aaaaahhh and i was waving like a princess. yes. i waved. it was my 5 mins of fame. let me have it. mama made me stop tho. party pooper. but they're still fixing on the beads and finalising evrything. they are increadibly thorough. like there was not a single flyaway thread on my dress. not one. totally worth the price.

my cards were a different matter. i would have eaten the head of the man who was in charge if he didnt look so dirty. He is by all accounts THE MOST ANNOYING PERSON I HAVE EVER MET!! i was soooooo mad at him but everytime i looked at him i wanted to laugh!! i was really2 angry, but he looked so pathetic and idiotic. i promise. he wore a pair of really short shorts and a baby t. I swear, it was a baby t. It was red and had a face of a kitty on it with the words 'look me in the eye' printed on it. IN GLITTER!!! and the top was also 3 sizes too small for him. it was such a sight. after checking the cards he conveniently told me they forgot to print my thank you tags. and we were leaving the nxt day. Thank god for pak ijat, the driver we hired there. he truly is godsent. i got the last of my cards yesterday at the airport which as another huge drama that ended in me crying my eyeballs out while on the phone w mama, jj and La. 

All in all, i have to say the jkt trip this time was not as relaxed as i thought it would be. oh did i mention the tailor who did my dress on jj's side did not sew the dress. All i got was a bustier and a skirt. Thats all. And he got all upset that i didnt tell him i was coming. I had specifically told him and his wife we were coming last weekend. he forgot. and was going all angry at me. of course i dropped all little miss polite and went into hulk mode. U DO NOT MESS WITH A BRIDES DRESS. i asked him for the bustier and skirt n the rest of my material to be sent to another tailor. when he came back from getting them for his wife, he was all nice and diplomatic. his wife must have reminded him of the dates. cubit kang!! but all was well and i got them done in 3 days. 3 DAYS!!! can u believe it!??

So im now waiting on my akad nikah n reception tops. i already have the skirt and veil with me. and my custom made shoes. and altered bustier. i cant even berangan with baju's at home coz everything is incomplete. I cant wait to get em all!!

i have more to tell but its gonna have to wait. Due to yesterdays drama i have a mountain load of work to clear. Toodlooo!!
