I'm back! [Part II ]

Back to [Part II ].

Well .. as soon as I arrived home, I started getting into my gown with the help of my mom & sister. I started putting on body lotion, scents & scented powder & stuff .. At the end .. I felt SO beautiful!

Finally .. I could enjoy the day & I forgot all the worries.

When I was done, I heard My groom entering the house, with his aunt & sister. My heart almost dropped! I was shaky & I felt like I'm gonna faint. Then, it was time for my to go down. My father & brothers were with me. I kissed them goodbye & went down the stairs.

I went down slowly .. smiling & shaking. first .. I saw the photographers .. I tried to stick my eyes on those. I saw my mom, her eyes were full of tears. My sister too. then I saw my sister in law .. thats a face I know. Then her aunt, her smile was so relieving. I turned my face & tadaaa .. There he was, my groom. His eyes was shining .. with a beautiful smile. I knew he was impressed to see me looking so different. I felt so beautiful in his eyes.

After saluting everyone, They all left to the ceremony being held in my mother in law's house & they left us alone with the photographers. I was so nervous thinking that now I'm standing by my HUSBAND. I felt so much pressure. We took many beautiful pictures. The only thing I was concentrating on was .. "Be flexible .. these photos will remain a memory forever!" .
Later, the photographers left, we were left alone. We chated for a while. My groom was so confident, relaxed, Joking & trying to break the ice. He looked so good & Smelled amazing.

Later, we left our house, his sisters has rented us a limo as a surprise gift. We jumped into the limo .. it was around 9:15 .. My groom told the driver to drive around until 10 pm, then take us to his family's house .. where the ceremony was taking place. Mr. M was so relaxed, chatting, joking & flirting. I was SO nervous. At the time I started to ignore my worries around my Mr. M & I started worrying about my entrance to the ceremony.
We arrived to the house. I took a deep breath & descended from the car. I held hands with my groom & walked up the stairs. First I entered a room to fix the way I look, my aunt and sister joined me. Then I gathered myself to do the BIG entrance. Rashid Al MAjid's song was playing. I tried to concentrate on 2 things .. Smile & Slow down!
I did it .. My entrance was perfect .. just the way I imagined it!
I looked at the faces of everyone .. everyone was happy & stunned!
I felt such a confidence boost!
It was amazing .. truely a day I'll never forget.

I'm back! [Part I ]

I'm back!

I missed you all. First I just want to say .. THANK GOD everything turned to be great!

On Monday .. I woke up before 11 am .. I had a good breakfast .. cheese sandwich and some hot milk & coffee. I relaxed for a while, then I took a loooooooong Hot shower. At 1 pm, I was done & I had lunch. I wasn't able to eat much, I was so nervous .. but at least I tried. After lunch, My best friend came to pick me up. We went to the beauty salon. There, I got pampered "did my nails, some massage & stuff" & later the makeup artist arrived & started doing her job. I was so tensed & worried about the result. The makeup artist was pregnant & I think she was about to deliver. I was brave enough to trust her since I never tried her before. I was trying to calm down but I think I gave her a hard time. But come on .. its MY DAY & I really wanted to look my best! No one can blame me!
I'm not used on wearing full, over the top makeup .. so I did my best trying to make her do my face as simple & as sweet as possible!

She did everything perfectly .. until she reached the lipstick & tadaaaaaaa .. IT WAS BRIGHT RED LIPSTICK!!!!!!!

It freaked me out .. Imagine what would it do to my new man! hehehe

I stayed arguing with her that this colour will never match my sweet PEACH colour gown! It was too intense. I would wear this lipstick in another occasion .. but not in my milchiti!

Finally thank god .. we reached to a settlement & she fixed it. She used a sexy, wonderful colour. I loved the whole thing.

Then, the hair stylest started .. I did an updo with natural flowers on the side .. I wanted natural flowers so bad. I ordered them & brought them with me from a flower shop.

At the end, it all went really well :) & I looked really beautiful!

I was so happy & excited .. but late!

It was almost 8 pm & My groom was supposed to pick me up from home at 8:30. I ran into the car, mom drove me home. It was SO funny. As we were driving, we passed through my grooms car & I got under the seat so they won't see me!

I arrived home finally safe .. thank god before my groom.

End of Part I

BIG Tuesday!

Last Tuesday .. My Mr. M's family wanted to gather for a dinner party in our house to meet the rest of the family. for a whole week, I was worried sick & freaked out .. I was supposed to meet 35 strangers who came mainly to "check me out"!!!
That was terrible. I did lots of preparations .. I reserved nail, hair & makeup appointments & I decided to wear something glamorous, sweet & sexy at the same time.
I had a cute Roberto Cavalli (kimono-like dress) .. I did my nails, hair in strands .. & I did my makeup in Mac. I had everything planned perfectly .. specially I was wearing my lucky tiger print heels hehehe they boost up my confidence anytime I need that!
The time came .. as soon as i was done working on myself, I drove back home as fast as i could (that was nuts .. I know!) & I changed & waited. I was shaking like a little chic & sweating like a pig! My hands were freezing.
I stayed up in my room .. in the dark .. gazing from the window .. waiting for them to come. They came ALL together. Almost 30 women. few minutes later, my mom called me to come down.
So far .. this was the hardest walk I had to do in my whole life. I entered .. (chan eyabeboon) this wasn't nice ( I wanted to cry) I tried to keep on a shinny smile the whole time .. I greeted everyone .. & sat calmly.
like a damn part of a decor. just smiling, answering questions briefly .. listening to stiries they'll tell me .. hearing nothing .. just looking at their mouth move .. bla bla bla bla this is all i could hear .. & noding as if I knew what they were talking about.
I was thinking .. my looks .. good? my hair .. my makeup .. MY NEW FAMILY!
GOD .. what an experience!
There was dinner prepared .. everyone was SO happy el7imdillah!
I was releived. My Mr. M's sisters were so much help. They made me relax & made things easier.
I loved them all .. but I still cannot realize the fact that this is MY NEW FAMILY!
