my books..... my babies which i bought from care4 for only rm3....... except ''holly'' by Jude Deveraux bought it for rm10 at pkns, shah alam....... lucky considering it's second hand but still in good condition....... during these 3 years at the university I have quite a collection of novels that i love and wouldn't trade it for anything......

let me make a list :




which i bought at pkns for rm 12, this books is very2 interesting eventhough I never ever finished reading it..... this one was during my practical training......



this one was at the book festival at KL, for rm 20 but later i found a hard cover version at pkns for only rm18.90...... figures......




one of my personal favourite writers, once you start reading it's hard to put it down unless your already finished reading...... this one was worth every cent i spend..... this one was in sem3.....
rm32.90 at uitm bookstore......



this one is not bad but it's kinda boring and slow for a novel thriller..... i think this one is only rm9.99 at popular...... during sales on the 3rd sem....



john grisham is one the best thriller writers but some of his books i dread reading it such as the painted house..... it's so boring never finished it...... this one was rm19.90 at uitm bookshop..... sem3 too......

since i found scribd and esnips..... i rarely by novels anymore I just download it off the net basicly i have read almost all of julie garwoods novels ( except compassion still searching for it ), jude deveraux,judith mcnaught, amanda quick, nora roberts, sandra brown and many more......

trying to finish david lawson's book, the promised land that seems very boring......

Rainy Day.....................

it's raining and pouring..... the weather makes you reminiscence and gloomy.....
currently watching ''SEPI'' for the twentieth time, i'm not sure but it never fails to touch my heart, makes you wonder if you'll find that special someone, how will you meet them and know that their are your other half...... like adam & ilyana........... and maybe one day we'll lose our loved ones like sufi & later on find another love that equals the one we used to feel....... life is full of second chances just make sure you grab them......



This is Aquilegia Vulgaris

In traditional herbalism columbine was considered sacred to Venus; carrying a posy of it was said arouse the affections of a loved one. So, ladies give one to your loved ones to as a sign of affection. Looking forward on the upcoming holidays.

Petua.......

my mom's petua actually, since i was in high school that would be during my last year'

of high school, she would always tell me to rub the banana peel to my scar's which i

have collected for years and has become a remembrance to me, each one of them has

it's own story......

Like my scar at my head.... which happened when i was 5 years old..... i used to sit at

the computers desk and tip the chair backwards ( which annoys my mom ) and one

day, maybe as a sign that my mom's advice that i repeatedly didn't follow with god's

willing i fell backwards and i pulled the computer desk with me causing the monitor

to fall on my head ( which is the reason that i maybe a little loose..... hehehe )

which i don't remember but later told by my mom cause i notice the scar on my head

so, i try to follow her advice and guidance cause her words can be a blessing and it

might be a prayer for us...... the next Haji season my parents are going there to fulfill

my mom's dreams of going to Mecca at least once in her life time ( which i hope is

going to a long one and her cancer will not comeback again ) it will be a long separation

that i'm not willing to let her go that far away from me....... cause she gives me strength

especially when i'm down (and my best friend who knows me the real me )

i love my mom...... hehehe......

except my dad cause he's immune ( iron stomach,hehehe... just kidding ) first it was my

second sis ( aimi, who is currently studying on how t become a fashion designer )

then my lil sis got infected when she returned home for the school holidays and she isn't

that little anymore already a grown up ( she's 7 years my junior but almost my height, which

is kind of a cruel fate cause i'm her older sis ), recently my third sis ( khadijah, the one who is

doing her practical training for her accountant degree......) is also inflicted with it.......

latest patient is my only older bro ( ali, who is working as a technician at freescale and doing

Memories.............

Just a couple days back....

I had a memory flash..... It was about my first crush...... I was 5 years old, i think... but the boy i

liked had eyes only for my sister who was 3 years older than me..... it was a childish and foolish

feelings, we used to be so care free.... no stress, no strains about the future just enjoying the

moment.... he was a cute boy ( malay of course), our parents were friends at the states.....

i used to follow him around ( i was kid back then so.... ), he gave my sis a box of stickers.....

well when we were children that seemed like a big thing.... i asked my mom for same thing for

my birthday present.... so childish.... i used to write letters to him ( in secret that is )......

i'll upload his photo if ever find it....

Wedding......

My Sis with her hubby.......

On the 28th of June 2009......

They got married.....

Location??? At our house in Meru.......

It was such a big occasion...... & very stressfull coz we did it all by ourselves..... Everything was inspired by each one of us..... from the Hantaran, Pelamin, Makan beradab setting, even the food served at the kenduri was from our family ( there were no caterer's involved ). It was fun, complicated but very, very satisfying coz we tried our best..... All her wedding dress aren't rental it's hers as a remembrance of her special day......


Let's go back to the past...... My childhood with her......
She used to give me snacks when she's home from school, we would sneak into the room and lock it, she'll wait till i finished eating then we would just go out and pretend nothing happened ( it's kinda hard to sneak snacks when you have 8 siblings who hates sharing ) When i was back from my hostel, then she would take my out with her and go out together just the two of us..... we would talk about silly things, joke about our siblings & gurly stuff......

I miss her everyday.......

........................

Seconds turn to minutes....

Minutes changes to hours....

Days becomes weeks.......

Then months pass by.....

Suddenly, New year arrives......

And your 1 year older.......

Happy Belated Birthday Sis!!!!!



Hahahahhaha..............

Cloud 7

That sunday....

I had a high fever ( 39.1 ), headache, the flu and i was coughing my lungs out......

so, later that evening i went to the seberang jaya hospital..... and u know what? they didn't

even give me a mc leave..... my oh my.... like i was healthy enough for classes....


Monday came....

And i was still on cloud 7, very2 blurred... like high or drunk....felt like my whole body

was on fire....classes was like a drag.... the kitchen? i can't even describe it with words....

that night my fever rose to a higher tempt. luckily i have a subs mom here, so she took care

of me....i can be rather difficult when i'm sick and really childish... so, thank u for being

patient with me....


Tuesday.....


Omg, we have law.... why do we even have to learn about law?

to make us more??? Economics??? I hlovate studying.......

Long Day.....

Yesterday, was endless... we had class from 8.30am till 12pm and i was bored, confused and very2 frustrated with my studies as it became more and more difficult and complicated..... i stayed at my gf's place after class, not wanting to return to my own house in the midst of the sky ( it's on the 4th floor ), anyway we went to the maxis center to ask about the youth club.... they said only new numbers gets this privilege..... we ate lunch near the sutera apartment it was Friday... so that means jumaat prayers but there were still some guys there maybe they had their monthly menses???

Later that day we went to Pisa there was a PC fair from 11 am till 9 pm, it's until tomorrow only..... bought myself a new pendrive.... lucky me.... it was kinda cheap... but the journey to get there many things happened.... we got lost..... and we went to the pet store and there was this really cute and active cat that caught my attention..... it was such a treat to play with it.... maybe one day, I'll buy her and we can play everyday....hehehe..... miss my cat.... where did she go???? anyone seen her.... it's been years since the last time I saw her and her baby kittens.....

that night we went to see a midnight movie..... i was actually hoping to see the ghost of girlfriends past but they didn't show it here..... so, we watched an action pack movie the G.I Joe, it was a fun & nerve wrecking movie.... can't wait to see the sequel of the movie.....

FYI, my oldest sister recently got married on the 28th of June this year..... I miss her..... i hate sharing my loved ones.....

Crazy week....

Hurm..... Kitchen class is very tiring even tough the wasn't much work to be done, but my oh my the stress is very exhausting, on monday we had spain week the C.o.D was asma'. who unfortunately wanted us to do alucky draw on what should we cook.... i asked her not to do it ( i begged of course ), i wasn't very good on cooing but i like to do pastry items.... but it looks like lady luck hasn't been on my side for a couple of days cause no matter how simple and easy the desserts that were giv to me it would fail...... looks like i'll have to give up doing dessert for the time being and do something else...... yesterday, i fasted and i had dinner at hotel uitm ( french service ) the appetizer was quite good, however when the soup arrived i was shocked cause it was like an oiled soup with trio mushroom.
then came the main which we choose chicken, but some of the meat was still pink and tender.... so i pinned all my hope on the dessert which was very very unfortunately not good cause the middle cake wasn't properly cooked and still moist..... and it didn't taste that great either.... i was very disappointed with the food and service that they provided to us.... today we had the artistry kitchen we had to finish up our pastillage product, our basket had cracks on it so it had to be covered up with royal icing, we made a new base, our handle for the basket was run over k.nor and it broke into two pieces.... which annoyed us more cause it wasn't easy to make... all the morning was like walking in a haze, very very blurry memory or is it me just trying to block unhappy memories...... we might go the cinemas and catch a movie...... hopefully yes....

Class starting.....

wOw...... tOmorrow class starts...... huhuhu.......

I'm gonna miss my holidays......
so, no more in post will be forthcoming in a while....
