ok
today i realised that good news are meant to be shared.
and tak elok sorok2 benda baik pun.
and thus, this is not a mere publicity, or just another piece of entry to spice up the chapters of this boring ying.blogspot

his family will be visiting this CNY
for those not familiar with the 'adat merisik', dont worry, u're not the only one..
and yes, it's still being practiced by many, including my dearest's family.
hence the search for the lord of the rings recently. initially was shocked that they actually going to get me a ring (told u i'm clueless about this adat), then i was terrified that they wont be able to get it since, well, i'm in special size category but soon enough i'm beginning to appreciate the fact that i, for the first time ever, will own a ring.
(and there were no resizing or special order required - they have it in my size!!)

more than anything, beyond the ring really, it marks the beginning of a lot of things.
i'm simply so, so happy about it. ni baru merisik, if kawin, waa... cant imagine..
it feels weird though. it feels different now that we're reaching this stage. something i wish to share but dont have words for it. apa2 pun it feels good.

maybe this is an infant step in the whole big official process, esp not having specific dates for the stages to follow ..
but it's sure a huge one for me.
