1.How old are you?
19, but I don't look a day over 15 *buat-buat tersipu-sipu*.
2. Are you single?
Let's just say Facebook had me in mind when they created the "It's complicated" status.
3. At what age do you think you’ll get married?
According to some cheesy Facebook (yet again) poll, I'd get married at the age of 24. I think that's rather too early. *calculates in mind* Think the life plan for me was 25-26. But God forbid, if I don't get married by 30, someone come meminang please!
4. Do you think you’ll be marrying the person you are with now??
*Pause* Pass!
5. If not, who do you want to marry?
As of now, I can only only hope for that person to:
a) be tak buruk, tak handsome sangat. Cannot handsome sangat because if I know people like me they'll be thinking "So mismatched. That guy good-looking, the wife muka terima kasih ajelah". And cannot lah be too buruk, I don't wanna be thinking about Nathaniel Archibald, Fahrain Ahmad or Zizan Nin everytime we pucker up. Haha.
b) be a good athlete, or at least plays a sport. Wah, hear me out first before you readily label me as superficial. This is really the best gift I can give to my kids. I'm trying to give them the "good in sports" genes, since if they were to come from me, alamat boleh main hockey and soccer/futsal so-so tapi tak terror-terror. Or boleh lari long-distance tapi tak jaguh. Hehe. Apparently, I've been on track with this so far, since most of the people I've dated/is dating/was gossiped with are *cough*extremely*cough* good at football.
c) bear arms yang ada urat terkeluar-keluar. I don't mean he needs to have really toned, muscular hands, just that those veins need to be popping out. I can't explain my fetish for this one, but I guess there's just something manly about a guy with hands that look like they've been worked, with time and labor both.
d) (pertaining to the hands again) have jari yang runcing. Yes, this is by far the most bizarre criteria I have (but keep on reading, I may surprise you even more). Stare at my fingers and you'll see why. Nice, long fingers are another thing I pray my husband can give my kids (of course it's ketentuan Tuhan, hehe, but you know, there's no harm in exercising natural gene selection).
e) start from rock bottom and shoot skyhigh. I mean it in terms of career, money, you know, the works. I like a man who has the drive to succeed, and not just going places because his dad is Datuk this or his mom knows Menteri ni. 'Course, if you're Mr. Ka Ching and you're madly in love with me and you don't fall in the second-sentence category, this goes out the window=P
f) be someone who can do housework with me, alongside me. No lazy man in the house for me. Make sure your CV includes cooking experience, because that's one hurdle we'd have to jump through TOGETHER.
g) someone who'd walk hand in hand with me until we grow old and sixty together; someone who won't run out of things to tell me after 40 years of living together; someone who'd still look at me like I'm the only person in the room eventhough I've lost all my teeth and gone all grey and loony.
6. Do you want a garden/beach wedding, or the traditional wedding?
Malay weddings are essentially traditional and semi-outdoors if held at home. Hotel for close relatives and friends, home for the whole world! Jemput-jemput!
7. Your ideal motif?
Fresh flowers are in, so that's a yes. Hm, this is too much for me to handle. Susah tau nak think of all those criteria I want in a man tadi.
8. Where do you plan to go on a honeymoon?
A pristine island or beach anywhere but in Malaysia. Maybe somewhere in the Carribeans? Bikini for the man! And I don't want that to happen in Malaysia where there'll be people ogling and pointing at me boobies and whatnot. Heh heh.
9. How many guests do you think you’ll invite?
Anyone who's made a significant impact in my life, sila angkat tangan. You'd be invited to the grand one. Yang kenal-kenalan can ajak for the wedding at the house or whatever.
10. Do you want an extravagant wedding or a simple wedding?
Depends on who I marry, doesn't it?
11. Do you want the traditional vows or something you’d make up on your own?
What?? We're Malays and Muslims dude. We do it the Akad nikah way. We've got the guy muttering his vow in one breath, then all the paperwork, then all the "batal air sembahyang" thing.
12. How many layers of cake do you want to have?
Does it even matter when the real cake would only be 2 layers the most, in most cases? So, I'd choose to make it a loooong bigggg one. Maybe in the shape of something special to the both of us.
13. Do you prefer having your reception at a hotel or at a simple place?
The grand one at a hotel or hotel-like place. Hm, but lauk will be kampung style like daging salai masak lemak, ayam goreng and sambal belacan! Whoppee. I'm going to defy tradition and melantak on my wedding reception!
14. When do you want to get married, evening or morning?
Nikah in the morning, reception at that night or the next night because night weddings are oh-so-glamorous.
15. You’d rather have your reception outdoors or indoors?
Dejavu. Hm, I keep giving answers ahead of the questions. Haiya. So, yes, it'll be both.
16. Do you like a grand entrance for your groom?
Hell yeah! With the kompangs and our favorite song and all that jazz!
18. Name the song/tune you’d like played at your wedding??
Heh, a girl is never too young to start collecting her wedding playlist. But now that the time has come to tell the world what my songs are gonna be, I forget. Hmph. But Sempurna by Andra and the Backbone, Love by Matt White, The Way I Am by Ingrid Michaelson are definitely on that list I have somewhere up in my head.
19. Are you a morning person or a night person?
Hm, a night-person, I guess. Because the darkness would deceive everyone and take their mind off my height?
20. Do you want a solemn ceremony or a light one?
I want loud, boisterous, meriah, boleh?
21. What age do you want to get married?
26-27. Tak bijak this questionairre. Bright and keypohci people like me will surely jawab way earlier.
22. Describe your ideal husband/wife.
Scroll up to number 5).
23. Do you prefer fine dining or just the normal spoon & fork/knife?
Spoon, fork and knife all the way y'all. And hands are welcomed too!
24. Champagne or red wine?
*Gasp* That'd be the end of a Malay wedding if people start infusing this into the wedding tradition.
25. Honeymoon right after the wedding or days after the wedding?
Right after. Why subject yourself to waiting when you know you wanna make love like bunnies now that you can? Haha.
26. Money or household item?
Money. Definitely. And I'll buy those household items 'cause I just don't trust your taste!
27. Who will pay for the bills?
Utilities? Hubby d-uh. Credit card too, please please *batters eyelashes and buat comel*?
28. Are you ready for married life?
Erk. *Looks left to right* Are you talking to me?
29. Will u always be true to your wife/husband?
Well, what he doesn't know won't hurt him. Hm, but then again, what I don't know won't hurt me either.... Tricky tricky.
30. How many kids would u like?
Tres! And can I have the two be twins? I have banyak twin genes in my blood tau--grandma from both sides and grandpa on mother's side--and you know what they say about this kind of thing skipping a generation.
31. A new house for a newly wed or an old one?
I think I deserve a new house after all the turmoil I've gone through. Hehe, bloody selfish.
32. Will u celebrate silver wedding, gold wedding, or diamond wedding?
*Squints one eye and garu-garu kepala* I'm assuming this is relating to anniversaries? On top of the occasional no-occasion gifts I'll be expecting from hubby, I of course expect all these anniversaries and would gladly embrace the rings/jewelries that come with it.
33. What kind of cuisine would u like for ur wedding?
Urgh. I don't wanna repeat myself. Read somewhere above.
34. Will u record ur honeymoon in a cd or dvd?
Tehee. Now that's a thought. My kids squealing and running to me after having found 'mama's and papa's *tidak boleh* (I mean, manja-manja lah) CD/DVD'? No thank you!
19, but I don't look a day over 15 *buat-buat tersipu-sipu*.
