huge disappointment

PMR result was announced today.

wasn't a parent yet but i can't help feeling anxious for my sister.

but such a let down when i finally found out how she did.

i won't disclose it here though.

out of respect.

and shame on my part.

let's just hope she learnt from her mistakes & do well in SPM.

i'm keeping my fingers crossed.

SALAM MAAL HIJRAH 1430H

Praise to Allah i'm still breathing & in good health.

another year had passed & hopefully this new year will bring;

**more joy & happiness

**strength to overcome any obstacles coming our way

**patience while going through everyday life

**perseverance to keep on going eventhough everything is going against us

InsyaAllah, this year we will accomplish more than we hoped for & be a better person spiritually.

May ALLAH Bless Everyone..:)

a day at the beach

it's been 2 years since i last when to Palm Beach, Sematan.

we had a small get-together for the newlyweds (not exactly new) Victor & Ernah who got married last June.

they were high school sweethearts & looking at them being happily married, u can't help but feel envious. in a good way of course.

as a friend put it, they were more thorns than roses that day.

6 roses among 10 thorns. prickly!

the day was beautiful. the sun was up & the breeze was just heavenly.

the guys had fun playing football on the beach while us girls prepared the food.

then it was time for play in the sea.

i dont swim & honestly, i was scared.

but i brushed all the bad thoughts aside & had a blast playing in the water with fieza & juzz.

we even had our own spa session..:)

BOBET, ZILAH, SUE, LYNN, ANNE, HATHSEY & AWG MU. really wish u guys were there..:(

Palm Beach, Sematan

nokia & me

i've always been into Nokia handphones.

i had used it from the first time i was introduced to the technology & i never looked back since.

Nokia 8210

stolen back in university. my very first handphone. i still curse the perpetrator to date.

Nokia 3310

borrowed from my brother cause i can't afford to buy a new one back then.

still functioning but outmoded. misplaced it somewhere.

Nokia 3100

my sister lent it to me. i like it ‘cause it glows in the dark.

Nokia 3200

bought with my PTPTN loan

Nokia 5300 express music

my first ever slide phone.

Nokia 3120 classic
currently using, right up til now

i've been loyal cause Nokia has a way with me. can't really explain it but lets just say, what we have is special. and I don’t have the heart to look the other way.

now i have another reason to love the brand even more.

a new addition to the family, just released NOKIA 5800 EXPRESS MUSIC.

and it’s touch screen! gotta love it!

Apple lovers gonna hate me for saying this but iphone falls short compared to this baby.

and i quote Daniel Ionescu-PC World (3rd October 2008);

"...apparently, you get so much more for your money than with an iPhone"

"For the iPhone, you know the drill: iTunes Music Store, $0.99 a pop. Being able to download as many songs as they want, for free, seems to be a great selling point for the 5800, especially for those who are on a lower budget."

"Nokia's 5800 Express Music also features a 3.2-megapixel camera, with autofocus Carl Zeiss optics and a dual LED flash. All these blow iPhone's 2006 style 2-megapixel-no flash camera out of the water. Also, Tube records videos at VGA quality (640X480px) and has a frontal camera for video calls, something that the iPhone can't do at all."

"Storage capacity-wise, the 5800 and iPhone seems to be on the par. Tube comes with an 8GB memory card and supports up to 16GB cards. Still, the Tube can have a slight advantage for those who want more than the given storage capacity, as they can buy additional memory cards and just pop them in the phone (iPhone's memory is built in and cannot be expanded)."

"GPS, Wi-Fi and a 3.5mm jack so you can plug in any headphone you like. But as an added extra, 5800 will support Adobe Flash from the start, something that iPhone is still lacking, so the Web browsing experience might even be better than Apple's."

no one could say it better than someone who knows the drill about technology.

i can't help it. i am so getting it! :)

i still want it.so bad!

it was definitely love at first sight.

one look and i was immediately hooked.

it must have been the most beautiful footwear i have ever seen.

and my foot looked damn good in it!

but i was too analytical back then & i made a decision that i still regret til today.

i should have bought it but i didn't.

thinking the price would fall lower & once it does, i'd grab at the chance.

the price did fall alright. 20% less but looks like i wasn't the only one smitten.

they had ran out of stock! the white colour that i want & the size 5 i'm wearing!

i even asked my sister in law in KL & my friend who went to Miri to get it for me but they were sold out too!

ARRRRGH!

i have never been so frustrated.

i still am.

if only i had listened to my heart & not my head, i'd definitely have it by now..:(

i'm seduced!

got these for myself today. never occured to me to give in to my olfactory demands but Victoria's Secret? how can i resist? they're Pure Seduction Hydrating Body Lotion & Eau de Toilette Spray from the Secret Garden Collection range and damn! smelling like a sensual mix of casaba melon, plum & freesia, i feel so sexy i wanna make out with myself! i m so buying more for myself later. while i'm at it, maybe i shud get myself their lingeries too. that sounds like a great idea..;)

wanna be on top?

i just finished watching America's Next Top Model Cycle 10 reruns & my, was my head throbbing from the continuous watch!

i know, im a bit outdated as the Cycle 11 winner had already been revealed (i'll start watching Cycle 11 tomorrow) & maybe in the making of Cycle 12 as we speak.

i followed the reality show religiously 'cause eventhough im no model material & not fit for fashion life, i do secretly dream of being a part of this whole glamourous experience.

the travelling, the idea of being dolled up & the chance to express emotions through pictures are just a few reasons why i love watching the show.

so today i googled & found pictures of all the winners together with the beautiful Tyra Banks (except for Adrianne Curry-Cycle 1 & Danielle Evans-Cycle 6. couldnt find them. buhu..).

my favourite winner would be Yoanna House from Cycle 2. what about u?

Yoanna House of Cycle 2

Eva Pigford of Cycle 3

Naima Mora of Cycle 4

Nicole Linkletter of Cycle 5

Caridee English of Cycle 7

Jaslene Gonzalez of Cycle 8

Saleisha Cooper of Cycle 9

Whitney Thompson of Cycle 10

McKey Sullivan of Cycle 11

housewarming & majlis bercukur part III

30 November 2008
Sunday came & it was time for us to leave.*sob sob* woke up early, packed our stuff & left for the airport. bought a few magazines since they're cheaper there (cheapskate!) & we bid goodbye to my bro+wife+baby zahra, my sis+hubby+naufal+amira & my younger sis.

touched down at Kuching at 1530hrs & arrived home at 1600hrs. it was still early & i was still in on-the-go mode. rang up friends but they were either busy or working. bummed, i decided to tag along my aunt who's heading back to our village in Kota Samarahan.

i took the wheel & after almost 2hrs drive, we arrived safely there. hunger pang struck so we bought burgers (which stall was right in front of our house) & i took pictures to kill the time.

my grandparents home. love it especially at night. cold! brrrr..

my aunt's corn stalks. her very own piece of heaven.

the mosque, located just beside our house. but still im too lazy to go & pray there. God, please forgive me!

house cum burger stall.

it sure was a long day for me & i journeyed quite a long distance that day. KL - KUCHING - KOTA SAMARAHAN. being jetsetter ready i guess? ;p
