Finally, we have done the first step. We went to the Jabatan Pendaftaran Negara on the 8th of September 2009, a day before the huge day for other brides (090909).
The night before, we planned to start our journey at 0700hr, so we could reach there at 0730. Then the next day I woke up late around 0730hr, so we depart around 0800hr and reach there around 0830hr. It’s my second time to Putrajaya. The first time was to apply for my paperworks at Lembaga Jururawat Malaysia(LJM). While Kim Fei was driving I told him it’s all new to me, I have not been to this side of Putrajaya, I have never gone through this bridge. I was so excited, I took a few photos.
Then Kim Fei showed me the building that we were approaching. That’s the building that we need to go to.
Then we parked at the opposite carpark lot. We saw a few people standing outside. One of them was dressed up holding a bouquet of flower, so we knew she was the bride. We proceed into the building.
That’s my hubbie in the photo. Candid camera!! It’s our first time in the building so we were looking around and as for me snapping around. The department is on the first floor.
When we reached the counter, lots of people were there. We saw 2 brides awaiting for their call. We proceed to the information counter and got the form to fill up. After filling up we proceed to get our number and we were the only one there to apply for the date. So we went up and deal with the application process. The officer told us that the month of September is fully booked, so we will need to select other date after 21 days approval. We told him that we want 8th January 2010. We are the first to booked that date. Haha..cause the planner book for 2010 is not out yet so the planner book on the table is only 2009. So we booked it and the officer explained the appointment letter given to us.
We were so excited, we walked around for a few minutes before we go home. We were discussing how many couple will be booking on the same date as us. After that we went home and announced to everyone that we have booked the date.
I even booked my photographer and make-up artist. This is real exciting. Another 3 months plus to go. Then I will be officially Mrs. Ting. But sadly to say I will have to wait another year for the chinese ceremony.
