PREMIUM BEAUTIFUL : why?

why PB?

- because I tried finding time going to the gym, but nope...being a working mother... no time for gym...paying rm150 per month but not going...i dont think so...

- those replacement meals programs...hmm....I am not diciplined enough I guess...and its not cheap ok...maintaining RM600 per month....dah start takkan nak stop plak kan...and until when??

- diet??? HAHAHAHA...gelak besar jap...no laa...i try to eat small portions, but hmmm.....ntah..tak jalan pun...plus I am still breastfeeding aqil so...kenot diet lorh....healthty eating is a different story..itu bukan nak kurus pun harusssss buat....

- jogging? I wanted to do that, jogging at the park pagi2...tapi ade jer activity jadi terbantut hasrat....i miss being all tired and sweating after a morning run.....hmmm

- pki PB ni senang jer...sarung jer...takyah dah buat bende lain...it immediately helps you cut ur meal portion into half...coz u cant eat that much wearing the corset..and makes u eat more frequently in small portion...haaa...pernah dengar tak ayat tu??? anybody who tried dieting before mesti tau...makan sikit but kerap...because, everytime u makan, it will boost up ur metabolisme level and tadaaaa....same laa seperti dieting... ;)

- pki PB boleh shape balik badan....klu diet, kene excersice baru dapat shape...yg ni...pki jer PB...shape terus.. ;)

- pki PB untuk kesihatan jugak...ok laa...exercise pun untuk kesihatan jugak...butttttt..pki PB can hilangkan migrain, angin2 dalam badan, period pain...and macam2 lagi...


so apelagi....jom laa pakai PB....its a very good investment untuk kita perempuan ni....dah makin tua, makin turun metabolisme kita, so makin susah nak jaga badan...pki PB boleh bantu kekalkan bentuk badan kita yg masih cantik ni... ;) without pening nak jaga makan or exercise... :) kan best tu.... kita jgn pk skrg jer....think about the future and how you want ur body to be????



i want my body to be exactly like it is now.. ;) and i know i could as long as i have my PB.. ;)

my current obsession T__T

I've got the silk ones for formal wear.

the pashmina types for the messy look.

the cotton ones for the laid back simple style.

my hands are itching to get the patchwork shawls from Arzu, but that might require me robbing some banks first....mahal giler ok T____T

bought some materials to create my own patchwork shawl...tapi tak menyempat lagi....hmmmm...

and I want that Satin Wrap Band Snood from Maysaa , but its still out of stock! grrr....

anyone knows where else I could get it?

teringat zaman sekolah...

it was the year 2000, my name and 9 other was called after the morning assembly, one week after school started...not knowing why we were called, went to meet ustazah with the 9 others...told we were to join a seminar/bengkel that weekend..what bengkel? Kem insaniah ke hape ntah..cant remember...

why?

apparently, I was in the top 10 list of the troubled student in my batch...like duhhhh????? I was an angel!!! (perasan!!)....seriously...because this happened wayyyyy before I started coloring my hair, piercing at, let me just say, not-supposed to places, sneaking out meeting my now ex- but then BF ( I think I must stop here before my mom gets a heart attack reading what I did during those years - lol!)

but whatever laa kan, we were ordered to go, so we go...all 10 of us, to Pusat Islam in KL, on a saturday morning (no weeding! yeay!)..the hall was I think like 2 classes joined together, so not so big, but I remember there were more boys than girls, we took our places, pen and notebook out (yes, very skema back then) waited for the talk to begin...

as soon as it began, we went *blank*....then they started to show the video where prisoners were caned...like WTH!! my mind was like.....diorang ingat kitorang ni jahat sgt ker...then came out the topic about juvi school and what not...astaga...biaq betuiii....

then, we had a group session kat perkarangan masjid negara, we were sitting in a circle, and the facilitator asked us what was the worst offence we ever made...and when the other kids from the other schools started telling their stories, my jaws drop...it was from, breaking a window car to steal, stealing from a masjid, to stealing a bike...i was like OMG!!!!!!! we were there for not wearing anak tudung, or not wearing our badge and nametags, or coming up (to school compound) 5 minutes late after the bell rang....seriously.....I didnt know if I should feel proud or embarassed at the time..and when it came to my turn to speak, I think the other kids gave a wierd look, like "haaak ekkleeehhhhhhhh....." lol!

later we were given a piece of paper to write to our parents..I cant remember the whole content that I wrote, but I remember writing, "I will buy mom and dad a Mercedes when I grow up..." hahaha.....and they actually posted the letter to our house, which I asked mom later, she said, she could not understand what I wrote..haha...

apepunm..it was one of the many sweet memories I have of high school..

;)



tetibe rindu giler kat sekolah...

today 2 family "incident" happened.

one kinda funny.

one kinda serious.

i only pray for the best.

i am here no matter what.

insyaAllah.

A is for Aisyah, Ali, Aqil ;)

i know in my FB post I said I was going to do a tutorial on how to spice up ur shawl but forgot to took a few pictures, jadi cam tak syiok plak nak blog..i'll do another one and make sure i snap all the pictures k!

so anyways, I guess who's on my FB list may know that I got myself an Ipad (I know right? tak penyabar punya budak...ckp nk tunggu 2nd gen nyer kluar..cisss...temptations.. T__T )

anyhow, Ipad..?yeah..whatever...everybody got one already..no biggie..but what they dont have is a personalised cover..heeee...i said what..??

ok laa ok laa...so i bought this really gorgeous red cover for my Ipad (just because i couldnt find a pink one at the time..which I found a few days later,,dont worry gave myself a kick in the butt already for being tak penyabar..nak beli lagi satu cam membazir plak kan...) opppss...back to the story... tapiii.....was gorgeous as the color was...it was blahhh...boring..kosong jerr...so i decided to spice it up and give it my own trademark or whatever u want to call it...and here's how i did it..

first thing, prepare the tools, for the super ambitious-but-always-tak-jadi me, i prepared a few extra things, just in case nak buat something extravoganza...

 my RED ipad cover, lace, crystals in black and red, twizers, a picture of which i want to copy on my cover, scissors..

first thing u want to do is to have an idea what u want to put on ur cover, I wanted this A (stands for Aisyah of course, and Ali and Aqil.. ;) )

....but when I started on the A, maakkkk aiihhh...tedious habiss...cancelllll........

then i tried to make a heart shape using the lace and crystal..and turned out something like this...

....mcm too childish laa pulak kan..nak ade love love ni.....

so pk nyer pk nyer pk.... i stuck to my original idea, which is the A initial, but I simplified it....susun jer ikut dan...and taaaaddaaaaaa..............................................

my case with a touch of moi... ;) simple and age appropriate...lol!

A is for Aisyah, Ali, Aqil.... ;)

anyoneelse personalized their Ipad cover? story laa skettttt...

drama

i have always been a drama queen - haha - seriously - intentionally or not.. - so a week without drama, is so not me..

last week was my fight with my ex-senior, which now I know he was going thru a rough time then - which made me feel so bad! urgh..

and yesterday, after a meet-up at OU - going out from the parking - my car went dead!!! in the middle of the slope..sumpah kecut giler perut mase tu..menggeletar habis satu badan! all the cars behind me mmg tersangkut laa kan..and it took 5 men to push my car up to a leveled area...kesian...i felt so embarrassed and guilty to those people...but also thankful sbb ade jugak manusia yg sudi membantu (padahal diorang nyer kete sangkut takleh kluar kan..so nak taknak...lol!)

why embarrassed? sbb bukan rosak pun....minyak habis weyhhh!!!! Ya Rabbi...tak tau nak kata ape cheqq... tulaa...lampu minyak dah merah from friday lagi, but insisted that cukup lagi nak buat berjalan sbb ou n my moms house dekat jer... T___T

memang padan dek muka sendiri laa kan...

then, during that time plak..battery pun flat! (note to self: get a cheap hp for backup) aiyoohhh...i dont know laa...drama drama drama....then this morning....checked my FB and i found this :

owh Mr Hubs..u just made my day...cant wait to see you this tuesday!!!!

WAHM

way back in primary school. I wanted to become a teacher.

in secondary school. my dream was to learn arts and be an interior designer. 

in matriculation. I was lost. anyone close to me would know that accounting was not my thing.

in my early years in Uni, I found it in my heart to give a little love to accounts. and apparently. accounts is not that bad. I guess I could be an accountant. [?]

but in my final year I finally decided what I wanted. To be a fulltime housewife. like what? mak ayah antaq blajaq tinggi2 nak bagi dapat kerja elok2..hang nak jadi housewife (no ofcourse my parents didnt say that!) but after watching a friend of mine pregnant in her final year, I thought, if I had kids of my own, I want to be the one raising them, so, maybe kerja a few years, and then behenti jadi housewife or stay at home mom.

but of course living in KL, you have to work. unless ur were born in a rich family, ade trustfund yg berjuta, maybe laa boleh choose to not work kan.but I doubt any rich kid wouldnt want to work and make money of their own. I think, diorang ni lagi berusaha keras untuk buktikan that they could definitely be as good as their parents - or at least the ones I know are like that..

so bekerja laa saya. my first job was an acc exec. in an MNC company. and guess what. I loved my work..lebih lagi when I did the almost full accounts. Account is cool ok! seronok.the rush during month end - the tediousness of the reporting..yups..loved it..siap dah plan what I wanted to be after 5 years in the company..siap dah susun strategy...and how I am going to achieve my goals....pernah kejap dah jadi cam workaholic plak...PH, weekends pun datang kerja, weekdays pun balik lambat...hmm..

then Aqil was born. having ur own kid. indescribable. the most wonderful gift any woman could ever receive from god.

and the long hours in the office made me think back of my stay-at-home-mom dreams... but being young parents..and only 3-years working-so obviously saving tak bnyk, living in KL summore there is no way I could afford to do that...

but - luckily - with the power of the internet - and how the world is changing now - i had a different option - a Work At Home Mom - or better known as WAHM ;) 

yes - I wanted exactly that - staying at home taking care of my child - and working at the same time..

and alhamdulillah - after month of discussing with mr hubs, and planning , and saving.. I am now a WAHM....

yes - u heard me right... last friday was my last day at work..my last day as an executive..

trust me - it was not an easy decision to make, it took me month to think, and to plan everything..started June last year kot dah terpk and bentangkan this issue kat hubby...but masa tu, tak tau nak buat ape lagi...so mcm tertangguh the topic..

then last november baru teringat I already have joined a business - just that I wasnt really active anymore, and I know that this business could give me the security that I wanted, that was when I called Salha and asked for advice....and alhamdulillah, after only 2 month dah aktif balik, I am not worried..

One thing everyone should know - doing business is not easy (or any job pun actually) - u have to have semangat yg kuat and support system yg bagus - alhamdulillah, my mom and dad are very supportive of my decision, and especially ayah mmg support me doing business - hubby pun dah ckp he will support me as much as he could and yg paling best about this biz is that u have ur biz partners to support u as well - they who knows about the business -  they who have been thru all the ups and downs  so u know u are not alone - if nak dibandingkan if bukak business sendiri, buat sorang2..klu tetibe stuck tak tau nak rujuk kat siapa- so for me, finding and joining this business is rezeki Allah nak bagi kat my family...peluang which I will use sebaik mungkin...insyaAllah...

I am now very anxious to start a new chapter of my life....berdebar....not knowing what will happen...but insyaAllah....I know, if I berusaha, and berdoa kepada-Nya...insyaAllah...everything will go smoothly...or maybe with a few bumps here and there...please pray for me... :)
