2012-02-12T07:23:00.000-08:00

Hello Monday Morning !

How have you been lovelies? Had a great morning jog? heheh

I am sounding all chirpy this morning coz I cant wait to share these babies.

All items are while stock lasts...these rings are suitable as gifts, bridesmaid + wedding accessories or even for personal/daily use for outing and such.

Ever since I published my first ever vintage rose ring , (you can read it here : LINK) I've been getting good feedbacks from clients who purchased it. Now I am updating with another order from 5 different clients in various colours.

In fact, I managed to pull a new design requested by Sarahmeay. She wanted the pinwheel of my brooch to become a fancy ring ! I am loving it to bits!

Jom cuci mata tengok order clients !!

Fatin Farah - 1pc maroon + 1pc pink

Sarahmeay - 1pc red + 1pc red pinwheel with mini crystal

Najihah Omar - 1pc turquoise + 1pc white

Siti Hajar - 1pc dark purple + 1pc cream

Natasya - 1pc red

Here's another close up order from Sarahmeay where she ordered a special ring of pinwheel and crystal.

Sarahmeay ordered 1pc of red vintage rose + 1pc red pinwheel with crystal

This is how it looks like when she wears it...(but this one is my sis trying to demonstrate hehe)

I would like to inform you that after this all rings will be charged at RM12/pc because I am using a better quality ring since the one I am using which is Type A-Brass ring is temporary out of stock.

Lets take a look at the types of ring base available. You can pick those available when you order your ring.

Goodbye Whitney Houston...RIP

2012-02-11T22:35:00.000-08:00

I know I have not been updating much since I have so many2 things to handle now.

But I cant stop posting this one out coz I love her so much, her songs, her music.

She is definitely a DIVA to reckon with.

I heard the news via Yahoo.com and I straight away open CNN channel Breaking News to know further about her tragic death.

She died for unknown reason since the Beverly Hills police is still investigating the cause of her death. She was found dead with no force entry at Beverly Hills Hotel at 3.45pm I think.

Her life has been such a hard struggle probably cant pull it off anymore.

I feel so sad for such talent to be wasted like that.

Even Simon Cowell admits she is the best Diva of all time. A person worth calling a DIVA not just because of her beautiful voice but her attitude and charisma.

I will forever listen to her song and RIP Whitney Houston.

P/s suddenly miss the movie ' The Bodyguard' =(

How to set your goals !

2012-01-12T20:01:00.000-08:00

** This is actually a sequel to this post on How to have a goal !

Yes. I am stating out the Goal for 2012 !

Theme for this year is to start small =)

I realize in achieving big dreams we have to start from small dreams. That small little steps which indirectly will help you navigate the entire path of your big dreams.

Most of us always think of what to achieve in a bigger situation...like having your own house, buying your own car, own this and that, go here and there...but how to achieve that if you dont start the little important steps to go there?

Say if you wanna buy a laptop...how are you going to buy a laptop without sufficient saving or money? Of course anyone can say they wanna buy a lappy but how many of us can actually own one without money?

Right?

Thats why we need to be specific. Yes the next key word is spesific. Here is something that I wanna share in successfully achieving your goals :

Yes ! Start your goal setting with SMART !!!!

Direct and very much relevant to those who are setting up their goals. There is no point of setting up goals if you cant achieve. You might as well just call it a dream or a wish.

Specific

Meaning that you have to understand very well what you want...say you want to go travel by this coming December, but where? Thailand? Korea? Where? You have to decide exactly what you want so that when you start navigating you will know where to stop even if you have storms coming right in front of you.

Measurable.
When you have a goal, you must be able to measure how far and how much you have done right? It is like a track record for you to look back and see what other improvements needed for you to achieve the target in time...This tip is like brother and sister with the one down below which is ATTAINABLE. You cant attain it if you cant measure it...see below.

Attainable.
Just remember this when you are setting your goal - If you have a goal, do you it to succeed? Definitely yes right? So how to make it successful? It has to be something that you can grasp. Something that you can do. something that you are up to even if you are at the lowest low and the highest high (no matter what happen). Something that you love to do or sacrifice coz one thing is for sure; achieving goals is not easy as it seems even if you plan to have say a birthday party next month, you will definitely encountered some unforeseen challenges along the way.When you plan a goal you have to see first what you have, what you need to do and how much time left before the day comes before you decide to make it a goal. If you plan to go to France by next month and you dont have much saving, do you think it is reasonable? Of course not right.
So before deciding whether your goals is worth the plan see first thoroughly with what u have.
Relevant
And of course to double confirm your goal you must remember the purpose of setting it. Like if your goal is to have 3 cars by the age of 28..do you think it is relevant where you can actually focus on something else? Relevant means is to set a goal that have the fullest benefits to your life. Something that can make you a better person or improve life by having it. Or perhaps it is merely a personal satisfaction of what you have been longing to do. A satisfaction that is worth having..not a satisfaction that will only lead to destruction and waste.

Time Bound
Once you have a goal you need to timeline it. It is like a scale when you are setting your goals. Even if you drive from Penang to KL you will know how far you have come with the signage given along the road right? Same thing here. Without the time line you will never be able to reach there in time..It is more like a schedule for yourself where inside the schedule is full of that little things you need to do to achieve. Also include that mini stops for you to review what you have done so far so that you can fasten up a bit or loosen up where necessary. This is crucial. A time bound with specific instruction.

When you do all these, InsyaALLAH what ever goals you targeted will successfully be yours. Nothing in life worth having comes easy right?
When you put you Intention and mind to it ( Your Nawaitu) You will definitely get there. Everything lies upon what is in your head. If you think you can, you definitely can !

Hope this helps...! Will reveal my goals of 2012 soon!

My Life's Blueprint : How to have a goal, and be sure you achieved it...a lil tips from the humble me =)

2011-12-29T21:46:00.000-08:00

I had a brief comment exchange with Ryha Feyzal before I had this post published.

When she first wrote this comment to me saying:

"so inspiring, my dear! proud of you. one of the reason i suka baca blog u ialah i akan dpt motivasi utk achieve my dream bila baca goals di sebelah kiri blog u tu. happy becoming new year!!!"

The first thing that hit me was " Should I share some tips to help ppl achieve their goals?" coz to know a person was inspired by this, it makes me feel so happy coz there is some one who actually appreciate what you have.

Honestly, in my deepest heart I never published things for recognition, but it's for sharing...coz we dont get to experience a lot of things at one time, we grew by learning from our mistakes and other people's mistakes too..so it is important to share.

Anyway I wanna share some tips on how I make sure I achieved some of my goals,.... if not many =)

I'm sure you have read loaddddsss of books on goal achievements, heard tips from counselors, friends or parents perhaps but have you get at least one in head? Frankly, I had the same problem too when I first started

BUT what changed me is not their advices or book's tips, it's my need to have something.

See the word NEED?

You dont go making goals because you wanna have goals too,

You dont list things you want to achieve just because you feel empty or hopeless.

You dont dream flying high up the sky because you want to be in the crowd.

No you dont !

You make goals because you need them.

For example...you feel hungry, you NEED to eat...so doesnt that drives you to eat?

Yes it does.

You have a car with a key, but can u drive a car without fuel even if you have the key? Definitely not. So in this case, fuel act as the motivation that drives you through it, smoothly...it's so important that without it, plans and goals are nothing but just a wish.

So once you have your target aimed which is your goal, now the next thing you need is a plan. When you are all excited to achieve goal (with that lil drive of motivation definitely) you can plan the route easily. It is like an automatic system that connects to each other.

The problem with most people is that they have goal, but lack of motivation so they cant plan and when there is no plan...the goal becomes a dream that will never come true.

So remember this three !

A goal to aim
A need to drive it through and
A plan to succeed.

All three are like brothers/sisters....can't leave without each other. You must have the urgency to achieve then only you will be able to fulfill all your dreams and visions.

I am posting this based on my personal experience. Might work with you, and might not. But if you are reading this, all you need to do is reflect back on the reasons why you cant achieve and see where are the areas that you need to improve. Just let me know if you have any problem or want to exchange ideas with me...I am all ear to listen to you sweetheart!

I will write next about ' How to plan your route to achieve your goals !!!' More on how to plan the journey. Maybe not in detail, probably briefly.

Feel free to comment and exchange with me yea.

Have a blast weekend and Happy New Year...(hope it is in time for you to read this and start listing your new goals for 2012)

Review on My Goals Through out 2011 !!!

2011-12-28T20:09:00.000-08:00

Salam and Hello Lovelies and Handsomes =)

Wow.

It's almost at the end of the year ! Yes,Yes...it's December already ok. How time flies....really.

At one point I feel that I cant wait for next year's challenge but at the other point I feel totally nervous.

Why?

First I have so many wonderful plans for next year...and the downside is that I am finalizing my thesis (yg tak siap2 lagi tuh huh) by end of this month!!!!!! It's like a suicide but I am up to the challenge so I am here to gear up everything so that I am prepared for this month and ready to welcome 2012 with open heart.

I'm gonna review one by one if you see the list on your right side by it's number...from top to bottom oke.

Most of my goals achieved this year are about my newborn business which I have started early this year. (though I started Perfumes and Art last year but this one was different - it's my artwork project ).

So here we go !

3 Goals Successfully Achieved in 2011

10# Have my own business and Design Card ! - ACHIEVED 17th November 2011

Yes. It has been completed and ready to be distributed on 17th November 2011. Just a day before I went for my interview with Food Digest ! I am so lucky to get it all done just in time coz I have been busy preparing for the interview. Though I am not a full time employee, but a full time student, I managed to have my own card ! You dont have to wait until you get a proper work to have a card, if you feel there is a need to have one, then just have it. It's a way to promote or networking so I guess it's pretty important especially when you have your own business.

I design the card and send it to printing myself.. finding a good company to print a quality and affordable name cards can be pretty challenging...Alhamdulillah after weeks of searching I managed to pull over =)

Value to learn : If you think it's necessary- Just do it.

**********************

82# Have my own design and art website - ACHIEVED 14th November 2011

Alhamdulillah. I am so grateful to be standing here with all the lil achievements. Last month on 14th November 2011, I have finally able to establish my own website with my own domain which I bought online, after a review from a friend. I did a lot or work in making this a reality. It's not as simple as saying 'I want to have a website'. To have one, you need a proper personal validation and organization. You must know the exact purpose of having the website and where it will lead and all. That's why producing it, is simple and easy as ABC but making sure it work perfectly well is totally different story.

A story that I personally proud of...Alhamdulillah.

Of course every success comes with the help from others. Directly and Indirectly. I cant thank enough to these people who have supported me in and out. Only Allah knows.

Do check my humble website : Scrapaperclip !

The website of which I am proud of....

Value to learn : Be confident with your work..Be proud of every single piece you do, no matter what people said, if you believe in yourself...the outcome is beyond imagination.

**********************

83# Be Featured in a Magazine/ Book or guest blogger in inspiring Website.

I didn't foresee this to be coming so soon since I have just started my website and my artwork.

I am grateful that I get all the support needed and able to expand from one friend to another, from Penang to Johor...It's an achievement that I would never hoped to succeed coz it took a real hard-work to make a dream come true.

Value to learn : If you have a dream and you put your mind to it, it will definitely come true...it takes patience to fulfill your dreams. Just work hard and be kind to others, InsyaALLAH things will eventually go your way.

I think thats pretty much sums up the important events through out this year apart from struggling with some financial issues, family problems, getting my thesis done...all in all I am proud of what I have achieved even though it is not much/productive. I am hopping next year would be more challenging and I am able to explore more opportunities and places to gain better experience, InsyaALLAH.

I hope I inspire you if not much =)

p/s all in all i think this is year is not so much productive...need to add more next year...with new experience to gain...ganbatte!

The Vow Movie Trailer !

2011-12-27T21:19:00.000-08:00

If your well-worn copy of "The Notebook" is beginning to skip, stutter and smoke in your player, may we recommend giving it a bit of a respite in favor of the upcoming romantic drama "The Vow"?

A tear jerking-movie definitely. As good as The Notebook and Dear John ! I really cant wait since Channing Tatum is one of my fav hero =) I actually cried when I watch dear John huhu Lame...I know..but who cares.

Let's dig something out on one of the most anticipated movie of 2012 :

The Vow

Cast
Rachel McAdams
Channing Tatum
Sam Neill
Scott Speedman
and Jessica Lange

Synopsis:
A newlywed couple recovers from a car accident that puts the wife in a coma. Waking up with severe memory loss, her husband endeavors to win her heart again.

Added Point :
‘The Vow‘ is based on the real-life love story of the Mom and Dad Kim and Krickitt Carpenter who were married in 1993. Two months after their marriage, the couple’s car was hit from behind by a truck, leaving Krickitt in a coma and with amnesia after coming out of the coma. They later chronicled their story in a book called “The Vow: The Kim and Krickitt Carpenter Story.

The Movie Sountrack/Theme Song
Enchanted by Taylor Swift !

Coming to theatres on Feb 2, 2012

How much I love romantic movies :

Project: My mini garden high up the sky =)

2011-12-27T19:34:00.000-08:00

Level 17.
That's where I live.

Seems pretty impossible to have a garden, real garden I mean..with green grass covering the ground, roots crawling under the earth with no boundaries.

How unfortunate...if you think so.

But that's so not me....I shall turn the unfortunate events of life into something wonderfully fortunate hahaha

So since I have a very limited space, I have to arrange them neatly. Yes Neat is the keyword..you dont want all the spill over of soils and dead leaves on the floor right?

I been longing to take photos of the plants but since the vases are all ugly and dirty ( I take the plants from my house in Seberang Perai) so I have to wait until I managed to change the ugly vases =) ...Alhamdulillah...last week I successfully changed MOST of them! )

Tips to have a mini sky garden !!

1. Understand well the condition of your balcony, the size, whether or not your balcony is facing the sun or not, when it is facing the light and things like that.

2. When you go to nursery : be sure to survey first before picking up the fav plant. Find plants that suits you best, if you prefer all green then look for some mini shrubs and etc.

3. Be sure to ask the owner on how to take care of it, the water consumption, fertilizers and etc...Like me, I usually purchase plants that do not require much attention, easy to grow, and stand strong on sunlight (since my balcony is so damn hot due to direct sunlight in the morning)

4. Pots : When you are looking for pots to change make sure you find a suitable pot that can sustain the growth of your plant (long term) Find pots that matches with your existing pot, or at least of the same theme colour...when you have all pots of the same combination of colours it will enhance your garden, rather than mix and match sort of arrangement. It's UGLY.

5. When you are arranging the potted plants, make sure the arrangements are easy to maintain, like easy for you to sweep or pick up the dried leaves etc...you dont want it to look crowded at one side.

6 . Last but not least , be sure to water and fertilize your plants when required !

So lets take a look...

So technically I arrange the potted plants at the corner of the balcony. When I buy the pots, I make sure that the colours of the pots are more or less the same. So for this particular project, I want white to be the main thing here. I maximized white to enhance the mini sky garden =)

So lets take another close up look at the plants =) (some of them =))

I love this creepy crawlie...unfortunately it's in a pot..I think if I transfer the plant to the ground Im sure it's going to crawl endlessly.....and probably have more flowers hehe

This is my baby Aloe Verra...last 2 weeks I saw this baby in the mother pot..so I thought I need to take this baby out and have it's own vase.

This is my fav pot with my fav plant. I called this pokok ubi (heh not sure of it's local and scientific name...I dont care) The green leaves of the plant compliments the white pot...Aww how lovely it is.

This is what I called my Accidental Lychee tree...The other day I ate lychee my mum brought home from China, I ate and threw the seed in the existing pots, next thing I know I grew taller and taller...2 seeds for 2 lychees baby tree =)
I wonder if it's going to bare real lychees hahahah

This is the mother of my baby aloe...Last time I bought it was only 3 branch (oh what ever they called the leave) now I think it grew double or triple than before...Alhamdulillah...

And not forgetting my fav hanging potted plants...I love the hanging plants, make me feel so at ease everytime I look at it...I think I'm gonna add more to this collection...InsyaALLAH.

Oh and my mum bought recently....a pot of rose, she said my garden looks a lil pale, so she wanted to add colours to it...It took only 2 days for all the flowers to bloom beautifully at my sky garden =)

Day 1

Day 2

Another close up which I just cant get enough =)

So what do you think? need advice for your mini sky garden? Ask me !
It seems my love for art dont only ends on pen and papers...Im gardening toooo....+)

My favourite bracelets

2011-12-26T21:11:00.000-08:00

Salam, Greetings and Hello to all my lovely readers !

How's your holiday?

I hope it was a blast...mine was nice but a lil bit drain.

I just came back from my hometown in Seremban...arrived past midnight so you can tell that it's pretty tiring =)

While on my journey to Seremban I managed to snap some photos of my favourite bracelets =)

Been longing to snap photos of all my accessories but I dont have that extra time to do it...so I guess I start of with this one first oke =)

FYI I am a big fan of accesories...from necklace, pendants, bracelets and rings or even brooch =)...made of all kinds, from gemstones to wire (^^)

I have been wearing this watch for 5 years...alhamdulillah still good as it was the first time...only need to change the battery..It was a gift from my mother on my birthday =)..not really an expensive watch but It means the world to me..not wearing it seems like I lost some part of me...thats how important the watch to me...=)

As you can see I am wearing the watch, the tiger eye stone bracelet and another handmade bracelet (I dont know the material used) all on my left hand side. All of which I bought at the flea market =) located at the uptown Penang road =).

The above 2 photos are justsome techniques I used to edit hehe love the effect on the 2 photos above. So this one particular bracelet too is one of my fav...always wear this one on my right hand...a handmade bracelet I bought at a flea market sometime ago. It took her almost 2 weeks to complete this one.

I have 2 colours of this bracelets; one is red and the other is pink =)//love them both!

*** If you are interested I can get one for you =) comes in two colours..red and pink.

Erm thats all for now..will get my post on the 2011 review soon!

The best thing about this magazine are :

1. Just launched this early this year...so you dont missed the coolest and wonderfulness that much since you can still catch up !

3. All the information/ facts are stated with good graphics, very fun and colourful. Straight forward and compact too! ( I dont enjoy reading lengthy information or fact details)

4. This magazine is compact, easy to carry around in your handbag.

5. This magazine is divided in 3 sections which include : Relax/Experience, Aspire and Digest

6. The quality of the magazine is superb, the paper used is good quality selling at only Rm16/ issue...better paper quality than Reader's Digest ( oke maybe I exaggerate this hehe )

Happy 50th Birthday Ma !

2011-12-14T08:37:00.000-08:00

Yes ! Today (14th December 2011) is my mother's birthday.

When for a lil celebration (something I thought not gonna happen coz she said she will be having a class later tonight..but surprise2 heheh)

So not much preparation...last minute made a card for my mum and bought her miniature perfume and one 100ml Estee Lauder Pleasure perfume. She just finished her perfumes so I thought I just bought her a new one.

Really had no idea coz it was very last minute since I was busy preparing the Social Impact Assessment Report (SIA) today...Alhamdullillah the report was successfully submitted =)

So here's a lil note I posted on her wall in facebook :

Dear mama ,

Who said you're 50 years old? You are 29 years old with 21 years of wisdom and experience. Happy Birthday to you mama hehe hope you like the tiny mini gift from us all =)

Review Ombak Rindu The Movie

2011-12-12T21:37:00.000-08:00

Ngeeee.
Note: I am not reviewing this as because many ppl did..but somehow this novel reminds me of my matriculation =) and i think it's worth reviewing the movie too

I went to watch the movie on 2nd December, yes on last Friday noon. The tix price is slightly lower than on weekends. Went to watch with another guy...not my other half unfortunately (sampai tak pergi jumaat hehe nasib dia perantau/musafir kan? hehe) coz he's obviously working =P.

I was kind of excited before watching the movie coz I have read the novel long ,long time ago. (itu pun sbb room-mate time matrik ajak baca, which I dont really enjoy reading malay novels sbb terlalu melodrama but surprisngly..this one is kind of good =)..oh I miss my room-mates back in Penang Matriculation..I dont know where they are now..contact changed, terus lost contact =( )

But.....to my disbelieve. It didnt turned out as I was expected...the movie was good, but not awesome. Didnt match the standard of the novel. Somehow it missed the firecrackers.

Like celebrating new year, if it's not happening then it was probably because of there was no fireworks.

So I wonder where it when wrong. Later I found out that the author participation was minimum which it shouldnt have been the case coz I think the author has the capability to transform what she has imagined way better than the director himself...

She wrote the book right? not the director.

So somehow the message is not delivered strong enough to give a huge impact to those who have read the novel. Anyway I gave 4/5 for the movie alone without comparing to the novel...if compared the star probably gone down 1 notch...3/5 =(

Anyhow do you know that the Ombak Rindu has 2 sequels that followed after ? Yeay! I bought all the 3 books sometime ago and I can say ' Penatlah membaca'! The plots are complicated, plus too many issues...not good for light reading. But as an avid novel reader, it's worth reading =) Althought it's complicated but the plot is nicely written and described.

See my personal collection? hehe dh berabuk dh kotttt =)

Erm the review seems a lil late..but heck I still wanna post this hehehe.

Have a wonderful week ahead y'all.

p/s I wanna make baju kurunglaaaa (will share about it soon)

Penang PAC (Performance Art Center) Review

2011-12-11T17:45:00.000-08:00

This was actually my second visit to Penang PAC.

I didnt bring my compact cam when I attended my first show ever coz I totally forgotten (well I was in a hurry on that day). It was indeed very unfortunate too coz the show that I went to see involved Zahiril Adzim !!! That newborn talent...I was not really a big fan of him (I knew him coz he got married to my junior in Convent Ipoh Shera Aiyob) but when I saw the theater, I fall in love with his acting.

He's damn talented. ( Giving the added value was his poetry to his wife during the wedding which you must watch, so here's the link : Puisi Zahiril buat Shera Bergambar )

These were the tickets for my 2 previous live performance =)

The show I went last weekend was on Sunday (4th December 2011) at 3pm : Short Eyes by Rumah Anak Teater - Live Theater in Bahasa.

You can go to this link for their online trailer =) : Online Trailer Short Eyes

You can google for more of Short Eyes, its originality, adaptation and lots more...oke.

I gave 5/5 star for the show, really it was worth watching....what's more worth watching when the ticket is also FREEEEEEEE !

Penang PAC is giving out FREE Tickets for shows until 31st December 2011
to celebrate their opening (Opening Celebration)

All you need to do is go to Straits Quay Marina Mall at Level 3 and purchase the ticket for FREE at ticket counter. Easy as that.

I am so gonna go REGULAR after this....hehe (no more KL for live shows hehe)

******

Anyway, just now (Sunday, 11th December 2011 at 3pm) I went there again for another show...this time in English

Entitled : Underneath The Lintel by Penang Players Music and Drama Society.

The show started off very nice and I love the way Shamila Ariffin played her character but as it when on, it gets a lil boring but there are humours in between that gets the crowd alive again =) ~ This is why I like her =)

The show is about a librarian (Shamila Ariffin) who found a book overdue returned after 113 years. The feisty librarian takes up the challenge to solve the mystery till the end with her remarkable findings =).

I gave the show 4/5 for the very well played character by Shamila Ariffin. When I first entered all I can see was foreigners and chinese..We are the only malay couple to attend the show. So sad coz the character played was indeed a Malay =) So go to Penang PAC and give them your full-hearted support !!!

So here's some photos before and after the show =)..just wanna give you guys a glimpse on what Penang PAC is all about =).

I am a BIG SUPPORTER of live theater and performance oke =)

This is inside Stage 2..managed to capture this just moments before it started =) You can see all the props displayed for the play =)


This is the ticketing counter...right in front of the main entrance..on the right side you can see some photos cum gallery being displayed...looks pretty empty right? and on top if you see the first floor lies stage 1..the biggest stage in Penang PAC for shows that require big space and lots of audience. I think they have 2 studio for practices and 2 stage for shows. Yes just opened so I guess it will becoming more and more interesting starting next year !

The stage 2 live performance studio situated at the ground floor...love the vibrant colour.. orange red.

Yes this is the gallery area...most of my photos are a bit blurry...**&^ the battery was almost empty

Penang PAC looks new with the not so much of decorations and artwork displayed at the common or waiting area. Using red and white colour to give some vibrant to the place. I think its oke for now since it is still new..in time, the place will be packed with lots and lots of on-going exhibitions and galleries.

Just before we entered..manage to snap one photo...about to start and we were late ~

So if you are in Penang, make sure you stop by at Strait Quay Marina Mall and head to the Penang PAC. You gonna love every single thing there at Penang PAC and also Strait Quay, definitely !

and then after we went to the Flea market for some braceletes hunting and some handmade window shopping =)

Thats all folks for Monday's Update.

Cheerios.

Some trying-outs =)

2011-12-08T23:50:00.000-08:00

It's been awhile I didnt post photos of my life ; my camera still not oke....probably need to change the lens ( bak kata pekedai,haih) So now and then I take photos using only compact camera..
But being an avid DSLR user, I still like to compare the quality which is obviously a waste of time.

Anyhow....

I thought maybe I should post some unpublished photos of my journey everywhere else using some new found techniques.

And I can tell, that I am loving this new technique...looks retro and vintage. I love lomo effect, been saving to get my hands on the Diana F+ Lomo camera...will definitely be one of my wish list next year !!

I'm so gonna get oneeeee =)

All of the photos were taken spontaneously by my other half...even when we were arguing (of what I cant remember) he still wants to take my photo, huh.

this is the time when we were arguing about erm I think on some work issues. Instead of listening to my ramblings he took photo of me...hah really nice of you !

Some of the photos are like sunny and warmth tone, others more or less like a vintage style effect.

Hope you like the editing !

Have a nice Weekend...mine would definitel packed with activities, and some work on Social Impact Assessment report to be done and submit on Monday =(..oh more projects (A project by Tun Mahathir =) yeay )

Hugs and More Hugs !!

Today I received something special.

2011-12-07T00:37:00.000-08:00

I bought something special.

I thought I can share with you today....

but unfortunately you have to wait until the owner replaces this item for me =(

I waited for almost a week and I feel something is not right so I make a call to Pos laju in Penang.

To my surprise....my item was there left unattended because the receipt was missing???
Hence the pos laju do not know what to do but to wait for the recipient or sender to call them of the missing item.
It doesnt make any sense at all coz look at the status below :

That was on 2nd Dec, today is 7th Dec ? I just picked the item today at 3pm...and I was so depressed !

So meaning the slip didnt lost it's way until it reached penang right ? There must have been something wrong in Penang while delivery..I dont think the receipt can easily slipped from the item?
I have done tonnes of delivery to people and received from people, but I have never encountered anything like this before. Very unfortunate.

WTH **&*&^^&%&%%

Not just that. The item I bought was also...................

BROKEN INTO PIECESSSSSSSSSS

I dont know whether it's the pos laju at fault or probably the sender did not pack it properly that's why it was easily broken =((((

Like dreams torn into pieces.

That's how I feel.

I am so so sad =(....Lucky Nigel are so kind to replace back the bottle.

My mood is totally spoiled.

I will update on this and make a special entry on this special item that I have bought once I received the replacement =)

Please pray that the replacement too will reach to me safe and sound =(

A good namecard printing shop in Penang.

2011-12-06T03:50:00.000-08:00

I've been keeping this as a draft for sometime, only today able to publish it.

Almost forgot about it actually =)

Yes, it's my new namecard....actually I received the namecard just in time for my interview with Food Digest Magazine....you can read about it here : Link

The searching starts like the end of October. I have been to Sungai Dua, USM area, Georgetown and many places more..some give good price but the quality not like I was expected, some have the quality but it's a lil pricy...so many reasons and excuses I gave for not trying to settle down with the search.

Main reason : I still believe I can get good quality with affordable price !

and so they said if you believe, you definitely will find the way.

It's proven !

While I was looking for something else (window shopping actually)..on the way to Gurney Drive, we drove in front of this printing shops along Jalan Burmah...there are a lot of printing shops surprisingly (hahaha).

Been driving there like a thousand times but I couldnt care less about the shops there.

So on that one fine day, I looked to my left and told my other half, hey this shop looked good coz they had like a sweet landscpae design in front of their office ( it's actually a house turned into an office). I didnt know why my heart whispered to me that this could be the one...haha sounding like a love story eh? So we stopped there to take a look in the first place..haha in the end, we got the deal (without even thinking that I actually had to pay 70% deposits for confirmation of the order - luckyly I tagged my other half along) .

A search that could have been only a day, took almost like the entire month. Just to find a good and affordable company. Haih. I dont know what will happen If I need to find a vendor for my wedding hahahahahah =)

Good things always comes later right? Soon as the company called me to pick up the card, I was ecstatic !! Excited + nervous + paranoid coz this is your first designed name card and you'll probably have no idea how good it will turn out....I am afraid that the quality is not as promised/up to standard of differ than the original design and colour.

But......

Surprised ! Surprised !! (sounding like Lisa Suirhani in Ombak Rindu haha)

Ordered 3 boxes ~ very nice packaging...different than other shops surprisingly they support GoGreen Campaign !

The look of front and back of the name card...laminated namecard...the colour is 100% the same like I have designed !

I was so happy to see the outcome...plus the ever green packaging ! It was totally awesome !

Alhamdulillah, A dream come true....

With the purchase of 3 boxes = 300pc of namecards, thick and laminated at only RM90 total, I get this great quality card. Totally worth investing.

If you are in Penang, take a visit to this shop. They also offer good customer service, wedding invites printing, all sorts of cards and postcards, etc....

The detail of the company incase you are interested =)

Truly 100% satisfaction...I am so grateful =)

I love the heart and paper roses =)
