the numbers that picked us ;) 1.JUL.11

How's puasa treating all muslims so far? Hope all are well and good ;)


It was our first time spending Ramadhan month together as husband and wife, and our 1st terawih & pre-dawned meal & break-fast were at my parents' place back in Subang Jaya.


Yesterday, 1st of August, marked our 1st month of marriage ;) We got married on 1st of July 2011.


Extra special that date. We didn't plan the date. That date chose US.


Initially, they'd planned our solemnization ceremony on 8th of july , just before my hotel reception (9th of july at that time , before we postponed to 17th july due to political rally). 


I didn't mind at all since 8 is also a special number.


8 NOV 2005 : was his first message to me
8 / 8 / 2006 : our first date
22 / 8 / 2006 : when he told me he wanted to take things serious. we moved from friends to in a relationship on this date.
8 / 8 / 2010 : when his family came for 'merisik'


See the EIGHTs? I love eight. but Eight wasn't for us..literally 


My family planned to have 2 receptions. solemnization~home reception~hotel reception. Hence, 8/7 is not a good date as things will be awfully packful & hectic to squeeze all 3 ceremonies in 2 days ! 


Another date proposed for us was 24/6 2011. I was okaaayy with it because of the pretty number 2.4.6 .. but nothing significant with that number. 


We told them we wanted 1.7.11. 


1JULY2011 - if we break it into half and ignore the second half, i'll get this 
--> 1JUL .. and husband's famous name is IJUL (remember?) that is why we love 1JULy2011 


another reason is because of that 1 infront and 11 at the back, make my card and cert looks nicer. =)) 
1 July 2011 ..


All of the sudden, my parents and his parents discussed and decided that 1st of July will be our solemnization ceremony ! yay !! 


I told dory-hubby that you will never have any reason to forget our wedding anniversary, because your name is on that date . he laughed.


Few days back when I was going to and fro from subang jaya / bkt jelutong to setiawangsa, I realized his house number is LOT 117.  there's a 1, there's 11, there's 7 !  AWESOMATIC ! 


see, the number picked us. Suggested to him to have our plate number 17 on our future cars  .. 


1st of july (1/7) , yes yes ! and and.. 


1+7 equals to...?? YES , EIGHT !  ;)) (literally our wedding date is not 8, but mathematically.. YES! ) 


magical isn't it? 


Alhamdulillah, everything is in Allah's hand and Allah has decided to give us pretty numbers on every special moments ;) 


To all muslims, husband and I would like to wish you a Happy Ramadhan ! May this fasting month brings us closer to HIM, makes us a better person, and tightens the bond between families and friends !! Happy fasting and may Allah blessed us all . We would like to apologize for any wrongs done.
