Antara Amir, Hassan, Sohrab & Hari Raya

Some nights ago, my bro and I watched 'The Kite Runner' based on Khaled Hosseini's book of the same name. What can I say, it is the best movie i ever watched... sigh.... it reminds of how lucky we are to live in a peaceful country and able to satisfy our unlimited wants. It also reminded me that how SELFISH we are, yeah, just that we didn't realised. And what a coincidence, my friend, Z has read the book and we discussed it last night altho through a different door where she read & myself watched.
Anywhoo, wishing everyone Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri. Maaf Zahir Batin. I will not be organising an 'open house' this year but you are welcome to visit during 3rd raya. :)
Salam Aidilfitri. Maaf Zahir Batin.
Bayar Zakat sudah?
Do NOT over eat!
Drive safely! Don't be SELFISH!
Do NOT OVERSPEND!!!! (the economy is not good)
ENJOY THE CELEBRATION!!

Nadia's 20th Birthday

HAPPY 20th BIRTHDAY NADIA!!!!
N with Widad
Today is Nadia's birthday. She is our 'si bongsu inda jadi' since the arrival of Widad. Hehehe... do you guys want to know a lil bit of her?? mau?? hehe
Some interesting facts about her:
- when my late grandma (paternal) underwent her medication in Singapore, my parents were accompanying her and they decided not bring nadia along with them. Tahu wat happen, she didn't want to speak with everyone at home until she flew to Spore with my cousin to meet my parents. Cheh.. good strategy hah! This happened some 10 years ago.
- she seldom puasa. LOL
- she loves to dance (read: ronggeng).
Hehe .. jgn mare ye cik nadia.

Berbuka Puasa with the Orphans

It was held last Saturday at my maternal aunt's place nextdoor. To date, there are around 13 orphans in our kampong and are below 18 years old. They also received 'sadaqah' from Majlis Perundingan Kampong, my aunt's family and our family. :)

Wedge Heel

Ohh wedges! One of my fav footwear. A wedge heel runs under the foot, from the back of the shoe to the middle or front.

Advantages of Wedge Heels:
- These shoes add height, but are easier to walk in than stilettos.
- Wedges have a very cosmopolitan look to them - they're worldly and sophisticated.
- A wedge heel looks great with nearly any length skirt or dress.
- Wedge heels, by nature, are a fashionable choice - by just choosing to wear them, you up your fashion quotient.
- Wedges will add definition and shape to heavy ankles, making them appear thinner.
Cons of Wedges:
- Wedge heels are still heels, with all their pitfalls. Don't be fooled into thinking you can run a marathon in them.
- Wedges can look a little clunky, especially when paired with very tight-fitting clothing.
- This style tends to seem a bit on the casual side. While there are dressier styles of wedges, finding a truly elegant one can be a bit difficult.
- A thick wedge heel will make really skinny ankles appear even thinner.
Hot with:
Flowing skirts
Bohemian styles
Thin, gauzy fabrics
Wrap dresses
Wide or flared jeans or pants
Gauchos

ahhh.. not to forget, it does look good with Baju Kurung Modern & Kebaya :)

Not with:
Pencil skirts
Capris
Pants with narrow or straight legs

Reminiscence of the 90's

Salaam.
I bring you the 90's songs and let us recall our past bittersweet memories back in the 90's. There are 20 songs which are my all time favourites from Take That, Aerosmith, Toni Braxton, En Vogue (remember them?) to Feminin (hahaa...nevermind their suara burung) and of course Sheila on 7 first single 'Dan' and Anang for sure. Anyway, enjoy listening and am enjoying the blissful month of Ramadhan. :)

Ramadhan the month of Blessings

Embrace this glorious month through a journey of patience and sacrifice.
Strengthen brotherhood through Sadaqah, as we give a hand to those in need.
Good deeds are rewarded with abundance and we shall floursih in his blessings.
Walau setinggi mana darjat, kita tetap duduk sama rendah, berdiri sama tinggi.
Walau sejauh mana kejayaan kita, namun kita tetap sama... hamba yang taat kepada Pencipta kita yang Maha Adil, Maha Pengasih dan Maha Penyayang.
Selamat berpuasa dan menunaikan ibadat di bulan Ramadhan.
