we speak love

before this blog become dirtiest than ever, i put myself a lot of effort to write a new post..

well.. life has been very shitty. i've seen better days. oh come on, you've no idea... no idea. 

i don't want to bring such negativity to a place that once so delighting and lovable (for me the least) 

so i will keep the misery deep in my heart. it's nowhere near public consumption anyway. only my closest people and my own self who knows me, the rest is trivia. so keep guessing (yes you know who you are!)

let's move to a more positive story, shall we?

a while ago I went to Singapore with Dieter's family. At first we wanted to celebrate our 9th year anniversary there and take a vacation all at once. But suddenly out of the blue, Ci Imel's longtime friend came up with this idea of take pictures of us. I wasn't categorized it as pre-wedding pictures but turns out, it was. Her friend (named Nicholas) is an architect and currently live in Singapore (he already become a citizen I think). He has passion for photography and clearly a hobbyist.

I was hesitate cos we didn't wanna splurge on pre-wed pictures in a first place. But this very kind man willing to do it for FREE. It's merely just for fun. Just fun. Dieter and I were like, CANT believe it. We refused to do it for free so we decided to bought him a watch as sincere gratitude.. Please God hope he likes it. And Dieter reminded me that we didn't plan to do a pre-wed pictures before so you better not hassle about it. Just wore dresses that you already had and I finally did my own hair & make up.

Shortly, we're lack of preparation. As a shoegal myself, I really want to bring all my fav shoes. But I had no time to prepared the dresses, let alone the shoes. It was so quick, with works and things. I didn't get a lot time to prepare. Some dresses were still in the laundry. Geez. So I only managed to brought several dresses and only TWO shoes. Haha.. Same with Dieter too. But one thing for sure, we were so LUCKY!  To be photographed by someone whom we knew & admired! We wanted to accentuate anything butLOVE in the photoshoot. Ew! hahaha

Days ago, the CD has arrived and I was so excited! 

the CD cover.. too cute 

the cover on the CD is lovely, and what's inside is so much more. all the photos were taken beautifully and exceeding our expectation, even beyond. We are so thankful to have given such opportunity and since we've known each other for quite a long time so the session went smoothly. Although there was a splash of rain in between, but overall we're HAPPY. That's the most important thing. Isn't pre-wedding suppose to be fun? I don't understand why there's couple who turned their back to each others and don't put a happy face on their faces. I honestly couldn't even put off a smile, in fact I've always smiled from ear to ear! Even though I got a bit emotional in our first session, cos I didn't believe we're actually there! Took pre-wedding pictures, on our 9th year anniversary, and at Singapore. You know, it made me speechless to think of how far we jump. I cried yeah, but Dieter & Ko Nico succeed to turned around the photo session to be so much fun!

Here's a bit preview. I made an amateur video to recap the preview from our photoshoot. I'm using "Our Day Will Come" song cos it match our story... yeah pretty much. Luvin the lyrics so much! x
It wasn't anything tremendous, but enough to prove that we only speak one language, LOVE :)

Thank you so much for those who participated especially Ko Nico himself and Ci Imel!! I'm so grateful to be surrounded by very kind, loving, and honest people in my life. It's unbelievably hard to find such qualities nowadays in our circumstances.

This so called prewed pictures just exactly what we want.. I hope someday our children see it as none other than their parents' expression of love, not "wtf did my parents do when they were young?!"
No silly faces with ridiculous costumes, nothing like fashion spread on magazine, it's just LOVE. Purely :')
