Its mandatory for all Muslim's in Malaysia to undergo a marriage course before having the permission to get married.. it is held for 2 days that is on a Saturday and Sunday. My abg (short for 'abang' presenting hubby in Malay), registered me and himself to take the course. The long hours where spent by hearing lectures. Some motivators where funny, a bit blue, and one or two where just too serious...overall.. they taught us the marriage procedure, how to become good Muslim husband and wife, pregnancy, how to overcome marriage conflicts, health etc...this motivator showed us a vid of a women giving birth...just couldnt have the guts to look at the pain...and another had tons of banned commercial ads to make us livelier... the food was nice..they kept feeding us.well..its worth the rm80 we have to pay to get in..hehe
