MY BESTFRIEND'S WEDDING



25th October has always been so familiar to me. The date sounds so perfect. It could be someone’s memorable day. It could be someone’s anniversary, or birthday, or anything. But it certainly a very special day to my beloved Nurul Yaqin and her soul mate, Mohd Redzuan.

My friendship with Eqin did not start since recently. And by ‘recently’ I meant just a few years back. We weren’t friends since high school or primary school or kindergarten. But it’s better late than never, right? So I thanked God that I met the best girl that I share most of everything with at the very end of my teenage life.

In 2002, we talked a few times when we bumped into each other in the elevator. That was it. In 2004, we live in the same apartment but had never really had a decent conversation. She cut my hair once, but it made my face looked 100 times bigger. When I visited Kuantan for the first time with my newly-met boyfriend, I called her for some directions. Seriously, that was it.

Everything started in the middle of 2006 in Uk, few months before we got back to our home land. We became close. I couldn’t really tell when exactly it started but I’m glad it happened. I don’t think we realize how much we have in common.

There are a lot of things we share in common. We love shopping. We can shop till we drop. The good thing is, we have the same habit in shopping. We both go for cheap stuff that looks 100 times more expensive that their real price. And most of the time, we got lucky to get some good stuff in return to very reasonable price. But sometimes, as any other girls, we also adore some real expensive things, like Lancome, Dior, and so on (at least we think that those are expensive brands). So, of course we’ll buy those too, but unlike some people, we have good control on overspending. We remind each other if we tend to go over the limit.


We both have patience towards each other. Before we go out to shop, we’ll both list own the things we want to buy. We’ll both remind each other if suddenly we want to buy things that are not in the list. But, as long as the list is not all ticked, we’ll both go around the mall until our legs hurt. That’s why we can stick to each other that long.

We love to cook. I mean, not really, but we cook when people eat our cooking. We always help each other to cook, though most of the time, it’s her who finishes the rest of the kitchen chores. During our time Uk, we helped each other in the kitchen, of course with some help from cutie Huda and beautiful Sudi.

Those days, we made a good team in term of studying. We had the same study habits, or should I say, almost.. We liked to finish out our assignments earlier from the date line. We were not the last-minute kind. We went to library and had certain goals for the day. Normally, we’d achieve the goal, but if we didn’t, one of us would start babbling.

The day she mentioned about her serious relationship with her soulmate, I wasn’t shock. None of us were. Because we know they liked each other since the day they met. We kind of expected that to happen. What made me shock was when she decided to bring him to meet her parents. Gosh, it was the biggest step!! For me, bringing your partner to your meet your parents means something like maarrriiiaaageee (which I wasn’t ready for that time)..And I seriously wouldn’t think that none of us, at that age, would even think about marriage yet. But I guess I’m glad she has found her real soulmate at that particular time, and it would be such a shame if she let him go.

The day she got married, I was so happy but I was so sad too. My greatest fear was that I would lose her as a best friend, because I had lost one before. I would do anything if I can turn back time to the time when we were so bloodily close. How fast the time flies, it has taken away my sweetest memory.

My Eqin, you are a wife now, and I’m very sure you’ll make a perfect one. I know Wan is so damn lucky to have you, and I know you will make him happy. He is your main responsibility, he is your life, he is your everything, so you better live a good life, ok. If you are reading this, I hope you wouldn’t change. I still need you as much as before, I will steal you from your husband if I need to (Fine! With his permission of course!!) I hope u know that above all, I love you so much, girl. Congratulations on your perfect marriage.

OFF ONE GOES

She was crazy. I must say she was.

Who would decide something so bizarre at that slightest second??
It was her, my sudiana.. my one and only sudiana

Gosh, I left her in Johor for few months and the next phone call she said she’s engaged!! how crazy is that??

Fayzan, if you are reading this, I apologize in advance, ok.. I’m just trying to express myself. After all, this is my blog, kan… so I can anything about anything.

When we were busy picking up boys and trying to have good relationship, she stayed in the room, downloading songs, sleeping and reading. Once a while she would go out with the girlfriends (including me sometimes, if I wasn’t dating) to catch the latest movie and grab dinner at some cool places. There were some guys chasing after her, but she complained too much and the chasing part eventually over. There were times when she yelled at some guys over the phone. Her lists of guy friends, gosh, even my credit card list was not that long. But she couldn’t find anything just perfect.

I wasn’t sure, WE weren’t sure if she was taking her time off about dating guys, or chasing after guys. Maybe she was just too sick of guys who eventually will break women’s heart. Or maybe she was still living under the shadows of her previous memories. Or maybe she was just being too picky and she wasn’t about to see anyone perfect. Or, she could be just lazy, and wanted to live a single life as much as she could.

But then, the first month she got posted, she kept talking about a guy she annoyed with at school. From the way she talked, I could tell that she actually like this man.

Then, the next few months, she said they are getting serious.

Next, they got engaged at the same day the guy’s parents wanna check her out (merisik).

Then, the big was in July, that few months after they met!

Wasn’t that the craziest decision I’ve ever heard??

Fine, it may not be the craziest, but still, I was so shocked!!

SHE WAS THE ONE TO GIVE US A LITTLE TREAT AT KL TOWER!!! (I MEAN, SHE WAS THE FIRST TO GET MARRIED!!!)

While others were still dating the guys they might have known forever, she married a guy she met few months before her big day!!

Suddenly, off one goes.

I made it to her big day, though a little late. I was too shocked that I couldn’t express anything to her that time. I just hoped she made a wise decision.

Then I guess, she made a good decision after all. This fayzan guy, turns out to be someone she adores so much. They share the same personalities, which I think the main reason why they could blend in so quickly. I guess, when u meet some that you’re destined to be together for the rest of your life, it will happen right at the blink of your eyes.

Her story, definitely gives me a new vision about love.

Doesn’t need to be dating for 5 years to get to know each other. If he’s yours, it will just happen.

CONGRATULATIONS, my SUDIANA.

seriously, this is not a first timer.
i am definitely not a first time blogger..
it's just that...
it's the first time after a very long time..

entering a new world, with new responsibilities and definitely new way of life actually does not change my interest, my old time hobby; writing. life have been so hectic, but i 'write' things in my mind, hoping that one day when all of the free times come back to me, i will be able to write again.

seriously, at this moment is not the 'free time' that i was talking about but i just can't take it anymore..
there some things that i have to let it go out of my heart earlier than the others.

it's nice to know if i do hv some royal readers who may be reading just to fill up the time, or to get busy body so that they will hv new gossips, or to take care of my life and to care me more. it is all does not bother me.. just to note again, i'm writing to take things out of my chest.

so, this is a good start. sure will update more.

enjoy!
