gathering + wedding
So henna = TATTOO??!!
That's such BULLSHIT!!!
FYI, if you don't know what is henna art then please pipe yourself down okie!
I went for henna art yesterday after my lunch cum meeting up with my old schoolmates at Chillis, mid valley
The mouth watering menu they ordered..
We, the three bloggers were busy snapping photos of our food but we forgotten to snapped our frequently mentioned BOTTOMLESS fruit juices and BOTTOMLESS water..*sigh*
After lunch, jokes, playback of the past and gossips of our former friends, Princess and i went for Indian Exhibition Fair..i wanted a saree!..
Thank god for having Princess with me..she assist me in getting a saree..the prices was..SO VERY EXTREMELY expensive (wrong way of emphasizing okie! don't follow it..ahaha~)..i forgotten to snap some pic when i was in the exhibition hall..damn!!The sarees the colours the beads..were such an eye opener..but they "warned" us shoppers first to be prepared for the price..how??they writen there
We accept VISA
Main aim: saree
Result after the fair??
before it dries off
After it dries off
Penny for my thoughts: I think i prefer it BEFORE it dries..
I got my hand with inai or Henna art instead..ahaha~
and to emphasize again..
ITS NOT A TATTOO!!!
and I love Henna art..but pls not drawing it too much okie~
God, I'm always a malay + indian + chinese girl..ahaha..glad to be myself again =)
and its even better when the other person accepts that
Well, today, i attended a malay wedding..just behind my house aje..okie~ so its like something i expected..redang and unknown people swarming around the area that will make you feel so shy to be alone in the sea of unknown people..
I love rendang..and they had the most beautiful rendang served there..with acars, nangka masak lemak (well, this is something NEW to me..usually masak lemak is sayur..but this is nangka..wow..evolved), ayam masak cili..then what you called that onion + nanas + timun??lupa la..but i know it all taste great to me (well, some of you might say "eww" as some of you are not used to traditional malay food)..dessert, we have pulut hitam (in chinese we called it hak lo mai)
Sorry, i was eating halfway and then only it struck my mind to snap this..i nearly finished the acar..well, sorry!!i was..hungry~~
Pulut Hitam aka hak lo mai..god its so pekat and so lemak but its so sedap and so membunuh but i ate this pekat was..i don't know..10 years ago??so once in a while, tak apa la..if homemade its not good..because it'll be often then!!
Okie, enough of food..let's go to the wedding's setting..the typical style..its simple but nice..with well decorated canopies and well dressed up chairs tied with golden ribbon to it..
The bride..
Look at her wedding gown!! Okie, so its malay style..but i love the beadworks!! God the dress looks beautiful!!
Warna yang mengasyikkan!!
Some thank-you-for-coming gifts..The gift was not as simple as JUST sweets..they had this lovely deco item which i kind os like it although it looks simple..
Bunga telur~ sesuatu yang dimestikan
I met one of my friend there before i left..got to know that it was her cousin..the bride..well, she saw my henna hand and she said "wa, ada orang nak kahwin gak ker?"
Well, now a days henna art is usually used for mostly indian and sometimes, malay weddings besides for deco..the thingy they used to draw onto your hand was actually the well know inai..that's why she said that to me..
To answer that~~ well..erm..
ahaha~
I'll then end my post here =P
