"'I want a boy who will tell me when I’m being stupid. Who won’t baby me with his words. A boy who will still give time to his friends. A boy who will tell me ‘No’. He will watch stupid movies with me, but makes me watch his favorites also. A boy who’s willing to drop everything to be with me, but knows when to let it be. A boy who will know he’s important to me, but won’t mind when I change my plans to help someone out. I want a boy who’s enjoyable to look at, he doesn’t have to be gorgeous. I just want someone who I can pay attention to. A boy who will randomly bring me food, cause he knows I love to eat. A boy who can make jokes about me, a boy that I can laugh with. Someone who wont mind when I even embarrass myself. A boy who will buy me something, something I would actually want, none of that jewelry crap. Someone who doesn’t do everything I ask but when it comes to something important I can count on him to be there. Someone who I don’t feel threatened by. A boy who has other friends that are girls, but I can trust him with them. A boy who will know when to leave me alone when I have my stupid fits. A boy who I can just sit with. I don’t need the whole fairytale deal; I just want to feel comfortable.'"

yada yada yada.

I've soooooooooooooo much to update on. will do so sooon! PROMISE.


I havent been getting up till lunch lately. Have to start re-cycling my sleeping times and start doing more productive things. Going to the batting cage tomorrow, for the first time ever. I finally know where it is now. Hopefully, it'll work out. I just wanna hit something very badly.
Had churros, banana peach crumble and one whole packet of roller coaster to myself today! Boy, that ain't good.
I need a BIG and LOUD alarm clock, that I'll get up to and not switch it off and go back to sleep!

Hello Sunshine! :)

Lately I've been feeling incredibly lazy to blog. I've been procrastinating for quite some time already. But now I've to, before i forget!

Firstly,

Belated Birthday wishes.

3rd Nov ;

Cousin turns 18. same age bebeh ;)

Happy Birthday Ozair! :)

4th Nov ;

Baby brother turns 3! woot woot!

Happy Birthday Baby Faliq! :)

As many of you know, I started going to school in Alor Star since form 3. Ever since then, I've had friends from KL and Alor Star. After high school ended last year, some friends from Alor Star are continuingtheir studies in KL, which are superbly awesome, as I get to see them when I'm in KL. But the world gets incredibly small, as my KL friends and Alor Star friends know each other. They go to the same college and I'll be like 'omg, they know each other!' but don't get me wrong, it is awesome. And when I'm on facebook, I see that most of my friends and I have plenty of mutual friends. That shows how small the world is.

The conclusion is, the world is getting smaller and smaller and everyone basically knows everyone, somehow, whether they know them personally, seen them around before or have heard of their names.

Starting last night, I've to fetch Abang after work around 1am ish. Abang's working at twenty-one, BSC now, while he's on holiday. Unless I decide to stay home for the rest of the day, I've to send abang before 4pm and fetch later. That means, more late nights. And its very exhausting to stay up just to go and fetch abang. Thank god its near. I admire Abang for working, even though he has only one month of holiday, and I didn't even work anywhere when I'm currently, taking the year off. Abang has been working at a few places, like Delifrance, Starbucks and a few more. Mainly F&B. I'm so the opposite, don't you think so?

I bet your thinking so what have I been doing if I'm not studying or working. Well, on weekdays, I'm basically a driver to my mum and now abang too. I drive mum where she needs to go. She'll get down and I'll just wait in the car. Before I could drive, mum will be the one driving and waiting in the car, and I'll go down and run errands. And I just wait for friends to be free to go out :) And I meet Amirah every weekend :)

Hanis and Kak Farhanah are in town for 2 weeks or so! WOOT WOOT! :D I've missed them.

TV Show Updates ;

I've finished watching The Hills season one, credits to Mia :)

Watching The Hills season 2 now. Credits to Sya, for teaching me where is the easiest and fastest way to watch MTV shows.

factss part 2

"Girls are like apples… the best ones are at the top of the trees. The boys don’t want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they just get the rotten apples that are on the ground that aren’t as good, but easy. So the apples at the top think there is something wrong with them, when, in reality, they are amazing. They just have to wait for the right boy to come along, the one who’s brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree…"

a long time coming ;

Hello Sunshine! :)

First of, I would like to apologise for the incredibly slow updates.

Hence, I think this is gonna be a looong post.

On Sunday, Nov 1st.
My mum, brother and I participated this charity run called 'terry fox run'. ( It's a run for terry who passed away due to cancer) Its a yearly event.
It was at Lake Garden.
The whole reason I joined was cause of dearest mummy. Mum has been participating a few years in a row now. For abang and I, it was our first time.
About 2-3 thousand people showed up, I was impressed!
Unfortunately, it was more like a parade than a run. 98% of the people there, were just walking.
It was divided into 2 categories, 3.5km and 5km. Mum, Abang and I did the 5 km! WOOHOO! yes, i survived :)
And after we got free Milo :) Bliss. You know the Milo truck that you have at your school's sports day, the enormous Milo truck which is like THE BEST Milo ever, yup, that's correct, THAT one.
Sadly, there's no photos for me to show you.



The same night, I helped Iman organized another suprise for Aunt Liza, as she and Nanal wasn't able to make it last Sunday.
This time it was a suprise dinner, at Chilis BSC.
And AGAIN Aunt Liza was suprise :)

When Abang came back a day before Terry Fox run, he texted me and said 'what if I came back sehelai sepinggang?' I just said up to youuu abang :) Cause the only thing I want is for him to be back in time for the run.

So the other day, Abang and I had our first road trip! (to get his stuff at campus, he has 4 weeks break) We asked daddy permission to use the car, and daddy generously, said YES! :) One of the reasons, why daddy is my hero :)

I knew we weren't gonna take the Karak highway. We were gonna through Kuala Pilah. So I knew I could stop at Nilai, to visit Amirah, since she's not coming back this weekend. I wanted to suprise her but figured it was best not to, as she has been quite busy with college nowadays. And I can visit my friends which are in UNITEN (thats where abang studies btw)
Off we went, said goodbye to mummy and drove off to our first stop, Nilai Univerity College. I had to lie to the guard and said I was there for registration. hehe. If not, I've to park outside, and walk in. Hell no, I'm not going to do that! It's quite a walk, okay. As Abang predicted, we were there for 2 hours. I got to meet Amirah's friends, Naja, Syaley and Junior :)

After saying our goodbyes, we were back on the road, heading to our main destination, Muadzam Shah, Pahang.

After 3 hours, we were there. Went straight to the girl's apartment, called Athirah to get her butt down so we could go eat. Later on, Abang dropped us at Athirah's apartment while he went to pack up his stuff at the boys apartment. I asked Ang to meet me at Athirah's apartment.

It was good catching up with them again, we laughed so much that I almost had sore throat.

Then, when Abang came to fetch me, Hafizan was in the car too. We dragged Athirah to go have a drink with us. Hafizan is Abang's friend, but he's my age, but because he is Abang's friend, I keep on forgetting that he is my age, hence, I tend to think he is older.

It was raining quite heavily, so we waited for the rain to stop before starting our journey again. I drove from home to Muadzam, which I didn't think I could do it cause there's this 'pusing-pusing' part which is super narrow. Abang was driving back.

We stopped at McD Senawang for dinner and to meet Abang's friend, Izzra.

Then went to fetch Mia at her college. She wasn't suppose to come back this week cause she has leadership camp today, but because she has nothing to wear for the camp she had to come back. I perfectly understand her. It's fashion crisis for goodness sakes. I offered to fetch her as I was passing Nilai on my way back to KL anyway. And yes, we had fun in the car :) Mia wanted to suprise her boyfriend, Amirul at Rasta, so that was the second place we went, when we reached KL. After a while, Mia had to go home, I sent her back and went back to Rasta cause Abang was still there. It was the first time I was at Rasta till it was closing. Abang was about to knockout anytime soon, so I had to drive home.
All in all, I can assure you it was a trip I'll never forget.

me driving :)

Abang bored in the car :)

camwhoring with Ang and Athirah.

Athira and Athirah ;)

meet the bestfriend, Amirah :)

So last night was spent having dinner with Aween and Suphannsa. Actually, it was them accompanying me having dinner since I was late.

Then, we went to Ikea. It's been a long time since I just walk around Ikea and look at their things. Gosh, there were so many things that I love. The beds are so comfy, the lights are pretty, and the mirrors are creative. I just got so excited looking at everything, especially the kiddies stuff. We were like, when we have 5 children, this is what the room will look like, and there were plenty of 'OMG, I'm so getting that for my child' moments :)

goofing around @ Ikea :)

factss.

we were alone:
Don’t waste your time worrying about boys. Boys will come and go. Don’t waste your time caring about the people who don’t like you. Chances are you don’t like them either. Don’t waste your time worrying if people are talking about you. You affected their lives, they didn’t affect yours. Waste your time with friends. Live for the moment, laugh often, be immature, do anything and everything. If it’s something you’ll regret in the morning, sleep late and when you wake up, laugh about it with your friends, cause your friends are what matter most. When you have your friends, you have everything."

re : jantan

we were alone: "jantan
we always make the mistake of thinking of them as complicated beings.
we forever try to analyse their behaviour, look for signs blah blah blah…
the BEST is when we try to figure out why they’re being such assholes,
ego issues la, emotionally wounded lah…(bullshit)
but i think, really, that they really are just bloody simple beings,
and if they want you, they’ll come and get you.
if he isn’t at your doorstep already, stop waiting,
he’s not about to ‘come to his senses’.
seriously.
thira, lets go kidnap cupid when i get back!
if he wont shoot at the right people, we’ll have to shoot him instead!"

Credits to Zehan.
Athira double like this!

come rain, come shine, come wind, come hail

Hello Sunshine! :)

you never change and i don't know if you will.

I'm just keeping it in, from exploding at you.

but the day will come when i will burst the biggest one.

Currently, I'm reading a book that my aunt gave me for my birthday last month.

This book is not just about Shoes. Its more than that. It teaches us loads of stuff ie how to say your thank-yous, how to start a book club, how to do the red carpet and etc etc. And also do you know that text message doesn't count as a proper thank you. You ought to get a 'thank you' card. Thank-you cards should, ideally, be handwritten, and posted no later than a week after the event or gift.

You can also say that this book teaches us to be proper, graceful and lady-like.

And so far, I'm enjoying the book ;)

It's my favourite time of the month again!

SALE! SALE! SALE!

I literally went crazy looking at Topshop, Dorothy perkins and Cats Whiskers.

And yesterday i just fell in love with Cotton On.

Daddy, cash please! :) I promise to be a good girl :)

24th October

Happy Birthday Aunty Anna :)

One of my interests are organizing events. Soo ....

On Sunday, I organized a surprise birthday brunch for Aunt Liza at The Loaf, Pavilion. After letting everyone know about it, then only I found out that Aunt Anna's birthday is 2 days after Aunt Liza. Decided to join them at the last minute.

Aunt Chor almost spoiled the surprise when we were on the way walking to the restaurant.

I asked the waiter where's our table as I already made reservations. He pointed to us the longest table in the restaurant which occupies 11 people. Aunt Liza was shocked. She asked me who reserved this, I said I did :) and I know she was touched by the whole thing.

Almost everyone managed to make it. And the birthday cake was simply delicious as I just saw the menu online and just called them to order the whole cake without even tasting it first. So, all in all it was a successful surprise birthday brunch. Everyone seemed happy and full when they left.

This is why I love organizing events. I love to see their happy faces when we're all together and knowing that we've made more memories to be cherished.

Well, Im going to Aunt Liza's place now for some leftover birthday cake. Then off to Mia's. FINALLY can meet my best friend!

hand in hand

Hello Sunshine! :)

BEYONCE POSTPONED! -_- whatthefaark!

I was looking forward to it soo much. pfft.

The night I got back to KL, I had dinner with my mum and aunt at Chawan. Had my favourite nasi lemak ayam goreng berempah :)

Popped in to MPH for a bit. Looking at pretty book covers can really make me happy. I went all hyper and smiling. There's soo many books that I want. But I'm still in the midst of reading a book now - The Girl Next Door by Elizabeth Noble.

Then, off to Delicious for desserts. Chocolicious Sundae, YUM! :)

They were selling I love KL t shirts and badges at Delicious. I couldn't resist, I just had to get one. It comes in 2 colours, Purple and Blue. The proceeds are for charity [FTEAGA and SPCA Selangor] anyway :)

my shirt :)





my badge

Did I ever tell you that I love babies? Well, yeah, I do.

I followed my mum to meet her friend for brunch at Lake Club. She brought along her babies - Aishah Marie, 1 year old and Alanna Jane, 4 months old.

They are just the cutest little thing :)

This is a photo of Alanna sleeping

Then, just when I was complaining I've no friend to hang out with, Idzmil, the friend that I haven't met in ages, asked me out. My savior ;)

We went to Rasta. Then came, Farouq, Christine and Afandi.

It was good catching up after such a long time. And its still good to know that we haven't really changed that much over the years.

finally, a photo, after soo many years!

a happy child :)

Hello Sunshine! :)

Today was the last time Hanis and I saw each other in Alor Star before she starts Uni.
We did our usual routine - gym and favourite mamak.
I talked so much today for some reason. I guess I'm just scared that when when one of us stop talking, it'll all sink in that we wont be able to see each other that often anymore.

After shower, my grandma called me in her room.

My uncle bought for me, my very own

Aigner black purse and an Aigner watch (which comes in 2 colour straps, black and white) :]

the black purse ;)

the black watch that comes in white too ;)

I was smiling like this :D and was in giggles when my grandma handed it to me.
I havent got the chance to thank him yet.
Will do so later, when he gets home.

I love you, Uncle Ismail :)

Putri Nur Athira is heading back to KL tomorrow, loves! :)

laughing in the rain

Hello Sunshine! :)

On Wednesday when I was talking to Hanis, she said that she was leaving for UNITEN already.

Hanis : 26Th ni registration dah! banyak benda kena buat this week!

Me : :o :o :o! omg! kena jumpa before i balik kl!

Cause you see, when she said she got accepted before, we thought it would be in December or something, not this early. We quickly planned to meet the next day cause I haven't seen her for a week and a half and we live like 10 minutes car ride away from each other!

Ummal, Mira and Naufal were suppose to be joining us but they couldn't make it.

We went on a lunch date at the new KFC (its been opened a few months already, but cause I haven't been there, so i say its new :]) Its like KFC and Pizza Hut side by side. I couldn't decide to eat where. I opened the door to Pizza Hut and it was like utter silence. I got scared, cause i know Hanis and I will be making tonnes of noise. so we settled for KFC instead. When we were at the counter, Naufal texted me "bestnyaaa kat KFC". So I knew he was somewhere around. Hanis and I found Naufal and Mira and their parents at Pizza Hut. What a coincidence!

After lunch, we went to Pacific to play bowling. Hanis won! She's pretty good among the four of us. There were lots of laughter and fun that day. And it was sad cause that's one of the last time I'll be getting to see Hanis before she leaves. yes yes, its not like shes leaving for UK or something. but still, I mainly spent the year with her. I'm gonna miss her like crazyyy :( But I might see her tomorrow and when she comes down to KL next Saturday :)

& Naufal, Hanis and Mira after bowling

Hello Sunshine! :)

So, yesterday I went for aerobics, my fourth time already. Its exhausting, I tell you. My back will surely ache the next day, like it did today. Its kinda embarrassing considering that I'm the youngest in the class. The rest are like working people. And I'm not the the most flexible girl on the planet. Thank god one of the mothers brought her daughter yesterday. She looks younger than me. But a whole lot more flexible than I am! pfft. Its kinda tough for me and I sorta take it as a challenge. Its amazing that I'm the only Malay in the class. The rest are all Chinese! That sounds a tad racist. Sorreh!


I went shampoo shopping! I finally decided the shampoo I'm using is not suitable for my hair. There's sooo many shampoos to choose from but I finally could narrow it down to two. I had fun smelling the shampoos :) They've such nice smells. Yes yes, you've probably concluded that I'm a weird girl. But the sad part was I did it alone. So i had to control my eagerness.


I managed to catch The Hills Season 5 Episode one till six on MTV too. Boy, there's a whole lot of drama going on there. But its fun and exciting to watch when its not your drama. It sucks a billion times when its your own life drama going on.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Today lepak at Naufal and Mira's house :)
Haven't seen them since third raya at Hanis's. Watched TV, catch up, took around 30+ photos ( in less than 15 minutes) and etc.

Here's some of the photos we took! :)

Toodles! :)
