weekend

This is part of the many things I did during the weekend.


Murni's wedding.

Isn't she lovely??! I love her wedding dress, the make up..everything!

On the way back to the kenduri. I heart this pic so much!

I had only 20 minutes to get ready before the kenduri started. I was really hungry so I try to cook the sausages using the microwave. It ended up looking like this!!! I didn't have the guts to eat it after all.

After the kenduri I went out with Batcha. This is the first date since I recovered from the darn flu. I really enjoy the outing because he took me to...

.....one of my favourite places on Earth!!!!!! Kampung Melayu! Aaaah..the buildings are just magnificent! I would love to spend a day in there :)

Then, Mr. Batcha took me to this fab shop. This is a used sewing machine shop located in town area. Boy, i love this shop too!!

That night I had a fun time playing with my favourite sweet girl, Alya. She had her very first encounter with a baby. It was a really funny and cute moment to see how her curiosity drives her insane.

Making cute expressions...as always :)

Aah..lovely. I love my life now and forever. Thanks Allah for everything :)

I must do this and that and yes those too

I..

I have so many things to do by the end of this month and that's next week.

So far, only quarter of the to do list are settled.

I have history class on Wednesday and I haven't read anything yet. I MUST munch 4 chapters!! Yikes!

Baking. Yes, I need to bake some cookies. Cinnamon cookies. Yummy but the baking shop was closed by the time I went there this evening. Note: tomorrow go and get the ingredients!!

Envelope and card. Oh that one too. Yes. I need to figure out how to make a handmade envelope.

Car wash. Blimey! I hate to wash my car because right after 17 hours, 54 minutes and 28 seconds after that it will be filthily dirty.

Scrapbook for BFF. Note: Buy more papers!!!! Seriously when I will be able to do this?

Things to buy: tissue, knife sharpener and ribbons.

Ooh lala!! So crazeeeeeeeeeeeeee.................!!!


Ok, no more. Don't think anymore tonight. Nuff'.

What I Did During The Weekend

Hi clouds,

I am so tired. I started two new hobbies. The first one is power walking at The Botanical Garden and the second one is cooking. Yes, cooking. A nightmare indeed!

It has been 4 days since I start to power walk and I really enjoy it especially I have my mom as my crime partner. We start off as early as 6.30 am and the air at that time is so refreshing and cool just like one Salem advertisement 10 years ago. The first day of course was a suicidal power walk. I can barely walk after that and crawling seemed to be the most delicious act to do for the whole day. But after the second day it's getting better.

Then, there goes my second hobby that is cooking. Well, I wouldn't really call it a hobby because it is part of this year resolutions so . . . ya. . .mmm. . . .I stumbled into this one really cool blog about cooking and creating food from whatever things that you happened to have in your kitchen and I must say it's really FUN!

So, I decided to make chicken kebab instead. First, it's doable. Second, the colour is nice. So I went to Cold Storage to get the ingredients. Being a super super dumb beginner, I was having a nightmare looking for the ingredients! And...to make it worse, I don't even know what cumin ground is!!!!! I thought it is some kind of French herb whatnot and I bought the one in you know those kecik-kecik very sophisticated looking bottles of herb for RM 8.99. When I got back home, mom saw it and of course like any Malaysian mom she went berserk! And then only did I know Cumin = Jintan!!!!!!! I can get secekak penumbuk of the so called cumin for only 50 cent at kedai rempah mamak and yet I spent RM 8.99!!! Lesson learned. The first try was ok, kurang garam. And the second try is much better :)

So here are some pics of the so called chicken kebab :) Next recipe on the go, Banana Chocolate Muffin!

The ingredients for sesi perap.

After perap, you cucuk and it will look like this lah.

And then you grill, but my dapur got only this kuali so 'grill' this way lah.

And ready to hidang and makan :)

amazing + beautiful yet so panas week

Hi clouds,

Last week has been the most awesome week by far. My BFF Murni Kassim had her engagement kenduri and it was a fab one! She looked oh so amazing and GORGEOUS! I really love her makeup, her dress and everything else :) It was a beautiful day and a meaningful to all of us as this is the first time in this year that the five of us (BFF from high school) met up again. Everyone was happy and jovial for the special day.

On Sunday, I went to my good friend's kenduri in Teluk Kumbar. Beautiful indeed! I love engagement and wedding kenduri because everyone would be in kelam kabut state except the person yang diraikan because she would be so nervous yet so pretty! :) Both kenduri punya makan is A+. Aaah....craving for nasik kenduri terlepas finally.

Other than that, I had an interesting week. I finally went to CTY Aquarium to get Guppies for my Korean friend which 1 ended up in heaven before I managed to reach their house. I say blame the traffic jam and heat! :p

Speaking of heat, the weather has been C-R-A-Z-Y nowadays!! The heat is so torturing and ice cream has been the best buddy :) I hope the hot sensation weather will wear off soon.

So, here are some pics taken at Murni's engagement kenduri and some photo booth syok sendiri pics of mine getting ready to the kenduri. Have a fun week everyone!

Cantik sangat!

My favourite shot. So ayu :)

Baju cantik and sangat sopan

Love this pose. Nampak body posture cantik bak kata Tyra Banks..I can see the curve!

Us. Been really kamcing since 16 and still going strong till now hopefully forever :)


And syok sendiri photos. . .

An attempt nak nampak sopan santun but tak menjadi...

Hi there,

I know it's totally lambat gila to post something related to resolution or whatnot but hey, it's my blog so I can do anything lah.. :p

That's the first 20 I really really really really want to achieve this year. So let's see if I manage to hit the aims :)

ada apa dengan status?

Just because you are a Dato, it does not mean i must respect you all the time.

Just because you are a Tuan, it does not mean I need to looked at my loop shoes everytime I talk to you.

Just because you are a Haji, it does not mean I can trust all of your words.

And,

Just because you are somebody, it does not mean I would care much about you.

I am who I am. If you don't like it. . . ADA AKU KESAH??!

Uh-Oh O!

Hi,

Been really busy lately preparing materials for data collection trip soon. Till then, I've been given constant-shock-moments-that-makes-my-mouth-goes-big-wide-O! Chant to self: this is my ticket to success, no pain no gain missy!

It's a wide O season now! Hehehehe

how nice would it be if. . .

Hello you,

A quick update before I continue my reading. I hope this week will be a better, brighter, productive and fun week for everyone! :) I've been really busy with my readings lately but that does not stop me from having sugar clouds imagination on how nice would it be if. . .

I mean how SERIOUSLY SUPER NICE would it be if. . .

I can have a gorgeous bedroom like this! I won't mind to be grounded for a month in here!! :p

Plus adorable -fawn miniatures-that-makes-you-to-baby-talk to decorate my gorgeous bedroom there. . .

Not only that, I also have a tent with hanging clouds like these as my reading crib!!!!! *faint*

And to pop into such a cutie mice while reading! *double faint*

Then, when I get tired from doing the reading I can just go to the backyard and ride on this!

While I'm having fun on my ride, I look up to the sky and I see. . .

Aaaah. . .life would be so awesome+ fantastic+ serious gila best if such things really happen :) But it's not wrong to let your imagination fly across the sugar clouds sometimes isn't it?


In the mean time, it's the reality knocking and so this is the list to ensure my happiness while doing my work:

Have a nice week!:)

i'm back. tougher and wiser (i hope)

Hi loves,

It's been a while since I last wrote here. Been really busy with workloads and emotions turbulences. But apart from that, I'm back. I have a new layout (but dang, where did my profile go??) Quick updates:

1. Had my birthday. Awesome birthday treatments: spa treat with bestie, surprise lunch with Peggy & fam, nice outing with Mr. Batcha and of course went to see my grand niece's concert on my birthday was the climax event of the day. I'm blessed and I love my life and the people around me :)

2. Had extra humongous of workloads this month and this I predict, will prolong for about two years!!! Being a research dudetess is not an easy task especially when you have three people depending on you to feed them with INFO, INFO, INFO, INFO and INFO. As much I've become a rotten banana out of this, I'm enjoying what I'm doing. I love doing indigenous studies. It's my passion. And the haywire is the price to pay for this enjoyment although I feel like it's a lonely journey at times, I guess...

3. Wira is recovering from his injury FAST! Phew! But he's driving me crazy with constant jumping and lapping around the house.

4. Mom is doing better now too. ALHAMDULILLAH! I've missed talking to my mommies although I see them everyday. Note to self: Spend more time talking and lepak with them! It's the best soul food ever!!

5. Having and enjoying good time with Mr. Batcha. Appreciating the honeysuckle feeling of being in love now. People say that the feeling will wear off soon. Well, wear off of me or not honeysuckle feeling, I'm enjoying you to the fullest now :)

6. My eyes getting rabun BIG TIME! Too much reading nowadays. Plus, I'm in dilemma. Print out articles and read it while holding it and feeling the sentimental touch of the papers (waste paper, and not to mention ink cartridges too) OR just read it through the computer screen till your eyes go zoing zoing? Sustainability...but it hurts my poor eyes!

7. Looking forward for MJ's This Is It. Note to self: search for the tickets. The last time I kept it in my wallet...or was it in the scrapbook tin? Hmm...

8. Update more! There are so much of thoughts to share (as if..)

That' all. Thank you :)

Spread love and laugh. Not lies.

Kata Magik Hari Jumaat

:)

Jangan bersedih, kerana qadha' telah ditetapkan, sesuatu yang ditaqdirkan telah terjadi, pena-pena telah mengering, lembaran-lembaran catatan ketentuan pun telah dilipat, dan setiap perkara telah ditetapkan. Walau apapun kesedihan anda tidak dapat mendahulukan atau menta'khirkan kenyataan yang terjadi, dan tidak juga mampu menambahkan atau mengurangi apa yang telah ditetapkan.

Jangan bersedih, sebab usia anda yang sebenarnya adalah kebahagiaan dan ketenangan hati anda. Oleh sebab itu, jangan habiskan usia anda dalam kesedihan, jangan biarkan malam-malam anda dalam kecemasan, jangan anda tukar kebahagiaan dengan ketakutan, dan jangan mensia-siakan waktu anda yang masih tersisa, kerana sesungguhnya Allah tidak menyukai orang-orang yang mensia-siakan waktu.

Taken from, Jangan Bersedih- Setelah Kesulitan Pasti Ada Kemudahan by Dr. Aidh Abdullah Al-Qasni.

I need to organize my time and my head. Gah alert!

Hello there :)

First, thank you again for the kind emails from you, and you and yes, you there and you. As I mentioned in previous post, it feels good when you know someone is thinking about you. Thank YOU :)

2) Okay, well I've been MIA for a while now not because I'm sick or whatnot but lately life has been really a hectic epic journey for me. For once, I really wish there would be an extra hour in a day. Tons of workloads to settle, piles of journals to digest, HUGE mess to sort out in my room, super stinky car to be detoxify (hehe) and LOTS more. Seriously, I'm losing my skills to organize things and time. Waaa!! Note to self: mayjah time and work organization on the go!

3) Well my abang came back and we had fun spending the weekend doing nothing practically besides than mengisi perut dan bergelak ketawa. Geez it has been a few weeks already and I really meant to update about it but I was too tired with my own boredom and laziness!! And the whole family went for a roadtrip to KL which was really fun and really a lifetime-family-i-love-you-guys-so-much-memory. Really everything was great.

Mandatory breakfast at Koyah. I love this candid pic!!! :) :)

Abg Non at Aquaria KLCC. LOL!

4) Started my job with the new boss and the new office. Everything is great too. Although I'm missing my ex boss dearly (her laugh especially!! maybe that's why I've been so stressed out lately..I haven't LOL for a while now!!) , my new boss is one awesome lady. And the super cool thing about it is I get the chance to mengada sebentar to guna Apple Mac. Is that what you call it? Yea..haha.. and today my boss rearranged the office to make a space for a bigger desk for me to use. Isn't it sweet?? Yea I know ;) and yes, I am lucky :) :) :) Alhamdulillah...

5) I'm heading to permanent-brain-ache-ville. I'm applying to further my studies, my MA. Which is pretty cool because I'm doing something I really enjoy and loves. Language and environment (finally I get to do something with the environment without scoring A in Biology). So peeps, wish me luck so that everything will go smoothly and nice :) Amin...........

6) I'm missing Sakiinah really badly. Where are you gf??

7) I'm still figuring out the supposed fun birthday party for my BFF, Murni. Note to self: Birthday gift hunt!

8) I'm starting to like Lady Gaga. I used to dislike her to the extend where I feel like punching her face.

9) I love my job as language helper to Peggy and family. I always get so excited and looking forward to the tutorials. ^_^

10) Wira is getting bigger and kenakalan melampau day by day!

11) Amy's oldest (from the 1st batch) Pearl Scale passed away. We had him/her for 3 years.

The ikan that we had for 3 years. Gonna miss you buddy! (letak dalam mangkuk tin sebelum pengebumian okay..bukan untuk direbus or dicelup tepung)

12) Spotted another cool house in town area. I love the balcony/veranda!! Kalau dapat rumah ni, aku nak berdiri kat situ and nyanyi ala-ala Evita.

*drooling*

13) Need to buckle up my time management skills and to settle things!! Aaarrrggghhh! Tolonglah cepat mai wahai rajin mood. Cepaattttlaaaahhhhhhh~~

That's pretty much the updates. Oh how I miss to really blog blog. *menyeru semangat kerajinan!*

Toodles :)
