Assalamualaikumwarahmatullah lovely bunch,

It's been a while. Been having loads of work these past month. Last night I sent Mister Partner to the airport. He went to Iksan, Korea to train the engineers there. His boss wanted him to stay for 2 whole weeks. But he said he'll try to talk to his boss. Maybe it can be reduced to 1 week.

I have runny nose right now. My eyes and nose are all itchy, I can't stop sneezing. Hope it all stops. Because I need to be strong these days onwards.

(Hmm, my post sounds serious. Can't help it - sorry guys).

Despite the complain (not exactly, just something I want to tell), I am thankful to Allah, Alhamdulillah for everything.

This is just one of my experiment using an iPhone app. Just some of the things beside my bed.

Wassalam.

Assalamualaikum,

Yeap, this year I'd be 30. End of January, not far ahead. I think I'm ready for it. But thinking I don't yet have any children, I don't want to be 30. Not for any other reason. Just that, full stop.

~beijing fashion sense~

Assalamualaikum fellas,

Well, it's not really Beijing's, by my fashion sense to be exact. I just love mixing colours anywhere anytime. I don't really adore as much when it comes to Autumn/Winter fashions, as they tend to go towards nude, black, grey and sorts. Very natural, earthy toned colours. It's not like I don't wear them at all, it's just that mix and match can be quite fun!

~this should be anyone's 2012 resolution~

Assalamualaikumwarahmatullah,

I love the beach..

But would the beach be loved in the years to come?..

I would always nag and nag (to Mister Partner that is).....

Why do people throw plastic drink bags outside their car while driving?

Why do people throw cigarettes on the street floor?

Why don’t people recycle their plastic containers?

Why won’t people clean up their own doing? Are they afraid that the city council might not have a job?

Why do people litter? Do they think what they’re doing is OK? Teeny tiny trashes only? Nobody would see?

The above pictures were taken at the Batu Feringghi beach. That was the only time I got to take pictures of them trashes. Because I did find many others. While I was riding my bike around my house, I found a bunch of polystyrene plates scattered next to the main road. Were they having a party by the road side? How could I help? How could anyone help? Because calling the city council would only settle that issue-at-the-moment. What if there are other littering act in the future? Would it be easier if each individual person acts responsibly? Do your part, if not taking care of other people’s trashes, take care of your own.

Does anyone of you remember? That when we’re in school (mostly I presume), we were trained to collect whatever trashes we found while walking, keep them in our pocket, and throw them into the trash can. Something difficult doing it now don’t you think?

Let’s help contributing indirectly (though it seems more directly) by throwing trashes in the trash can. IN the trash can, not near it.. not beside it. Savvy?

And let's make it our 2012 resolution!

Ciao ;p

~the kurungs~

Assalamualaikum bellas,

Do you remember that I've mentioned in a post about me sending textiles to the tailor before raya puasa? Check out that entry.

I HAVEN'T yet received them, yet wearing them. The tailor said that the one doing embroidery was badly ill, like cancer or something. So, at the last minute, this is the result.

 The fabric was bought at a batik outlet in Shah Alam, and I'm pleased with the result, simple yet colourful. And I love the shawl, which I bought from ShawlbyVsnow.


me in the pink/ blue kurung

The fabric was bought in Hadyai, I personally mixed and matched the textile and made into a modern baju kurung. What do you think? It's quite simple, and Alhamdulillah the tailor managed to finished sewing it in time.

Below is my kurung during the visit to our kampung on raya haji:
