Eid 2011

Celebrated the first day of Raya at my mum's hometown in Bukit Damansara, spent our raya eve there as well. Despite the fact that raya in Damansara is never really as festive as it is in some people's hometowns, where they play fireworks, make dozens of lemangs with hundreds and thousands of cousins and even visit the whole neighbourhood, it was great celebrating the joyful occasion with my loved ones, especially when we have three new members in the family.

With Me

Afraid To Fall

If this is the real you, then I guess,

I liked you better when you werent yourself.

Munching On A Cookie As I Type..

Havent had the chance to write a post these days, things have been a little hectic lately but then again, its been that way for quite a while already. Everyones busy getting their Eid preparations done ; shopping for new clothes, baking cookies, cooking awesome-tastic food as opposed to me whos been staying indoors, not that I'm complaining.

I'm wearing a soft green silk kaftan dress for this year's celebration, thanks to Mum whom bought it for me like just yesterday. Haha. So last minute, but nevertheless, the dress is beautiful. So anyway, I would like to wish everyone an early Selamat Hari Raya. Sorry if I might have said something harsh or blunt or well hurt anyone in any way. Happy holidays! :-)

Someone To Fall Back On

My Saturday was well spent with my closest friends, its been ages since I last saw their pretty faces and good god, how so much have changed yet our friendship still remains the same. Our laughters are still as loud, our jokes are still as crude. It feels good to finally see all six of them.

Come Move My Way

Purchased an owl printed top online, have not pampered myself in a while. I need a "love myself" day, but that time will come. As for now, I have to get my priorities sorted out, not that I have been an irresponsible kid lately. I can't even remember the last time I got into an arguement with any of my family members, let alone a big fight.

Anyway, a friend of mine is organising a preloved garage sale this coming Monday, on the 22nd of August. I'm selling as well, so if you're interested in purchasing some brand new or preloved clothes, do come. Those who do not believe in shopping online as you have some trust issues or something, then feel free to come to the preloved garage sale. I'll post up the flyer soon.

Keep Calm And Go Back

Its funny isn't it, how one moment you're best friends, you know everything about each other, do everything together and the next, things change, you both become complete strangers. You pass in the hallway without even saying hello, not even taking a second glance at one another. A beautiful friendship, wasted, just like that. But things work out eventually, its the way it is, somehow, someway, some thing will bring that friendship back together. You may not believe it, but I do.

Oh Look At That

found this in my mailbox yesterday,

hehe thanks lisa ameera <3 :-)

I Am Here To Stay

I dont know if I will lose you someday and I don't dare to know how it feels. There is always this little voice at the back of my head that says you're going to walk away, and by the time you do, I will not be prepared. And its going to hurt. Really bad. So I try to prepare myself for the worst, but I know, if or when the day comes, I will never be fully prepared. Losing you is one thing, coping with the change is another. Not seeing you for more than five hours agitates me, imagine a lifetime. I dare not think about it. I say things I don't mean, you say things you don't mean. Thats what happens. It scares me to think that one day, I might not get to feel your heartbeat, or hold your hand, or even have you smiling at me, the way you smiled at me yesterday, the way you will smile at me today, and hopefully, tomorrow and forever.

Quote of The Day

You come to love not by finding the perfect person,

but by seeing an imperfect person perfectly.

Hi Stranger

Hi stranger, I guess you forgot how you used to accompany me every night just so I could fall asleep. Hi stranger, I guess you forgot how we would spend every minute of every day together. Hi stranger, I guess you forgot how I followed you everywhere you went. Hi stranger, I guess you forgot how we would talk on the phone for hours even if we had nothing to say. Hi stranger, I guess you forgot how I used to make excuses just so I could spend a little more time with you. Hi stranger, I guess you forgot about how panicked I was trying to suprise you on your birthday. Hi stranger, I guess you forgot how nervous you made me feel whenever I'm around you. Hi stranger, I guess you forgot how we used to lay in total darkness, just listening to songs. Hi stranger, I guess you forgot how we would draw photos and have them compared, you knew I was better but you played along because it made me happy.

Hi stranger, I guess, I guess you forgot about me.

Such Great Friends

You know how time flies and people change, I have always stood by that line, I have always thought that is how this universe works. My friends proved me otherwise. I apologize that I ever doubted them, I thought when things go wrong, they would all flee. I have always thought people are all the same, they would never stay unless they get something in return. Maybe being attached is one of my biggest fears, because people let you down all the time and Id rather not get myself disappointed.

I avoided people for quite sometime, thinking they would not have my back, but I was wrong. My friends did. They all did. As I have said before, how did I get so lucky?

Hush Now

Do you know how sometimes you lie in bed, right before you're about to doze off, your mind starts to wander elsewhere, you start to think about the things you try your hardest to forget, about the things you don't speak of in the morning, about the things you would rather not talk about. You don't talk about it at all, sometimes it works, sometime you forget but not for long, because its there, its inevitable, its part of your scars. You tell yourself you're not affected, when you are. Scary isnt it, how we are. It may seem like we're okay but truth is, everyone has a story.

Just My Luck

\

It seems like it was just yesterday when everything you thought went wrong, but today, everything feels so right, everything fits, everything starts to make sense. I finally understood the phrase "tears of joy" because thats what its like, looking at you, wondering how on earth did I get so lucky? What did I do to deserve such a beautiful life. Thats how it works, life, in its mysterious ways. You think its unfair, but God has better plans for you. Just wait and see :-)

Pretty In Pink

Hi, this won't be much of a post but just to let you know how much I prefer Mac's cosmetics than Bobbi Brown's. I've been using Bobbi Brown's soft pink blusher for about a year now, I've always thought it was a bit too strong on my skin tone, even if its "soft pink" but after using Mac's mineralize blush, a present given by Hasiff's mum, I can't seem to want to wear anything else.

Our prayers are answered not when we are given what we ask,
but when we are challenged to be what we can be.
