It's Gonna Be a Classy Polka Dot Skirt Baby!

Last Sunday was the most productive weekend I’ve ever had. Me and my sister Mira finally learn how to make a skirt! My mum used to sew our clothes when we were little and she made numerous pretty clothes for herself. So when I told her that I wanna learn, she was more than willing to teach.
So mum told us that we were going out for fabric shopping, so we quickly dress up and I decided to bring Sam along to the mall. And speaking of Sam, me and my sis actually did a little camho session secretly in our room despite the fact that my mum is already screaming for us to hurry up, kekekek.

I hope my sister will forgive me for putting that pictures of her because it’s so damn hillarious, I just have to laugh every time I look at it. It's kinda funny how we turned out wearing the same theme - stripes. It was obvious that she was copying me! I think it's a sibling thing, we thinks alike a lot~

And this is the fabric that I bought for my skirt. Mum paid for it (I love you mum!). The material is so soft - it feels just right the moment you touch it! And it's gonna be a classy polka dot skirt baby!



And it was also the day of Suzuki Cup final between Malaysia and Indonesia. My mum was yelling at us because we would dash from the sewing machine towards the TV every time my dad screamed, ‘Goaaaaaallllll!!!!!!!!!!!!’ and dancing like there’s no tomorrow, hehe. We really did well, didn't we? 3 goals to nil is really something they should be proud of. But let's not get arrogant just yet. Keep up the good work and beat them with 4 goals tomorrow, okay?

Anyway, my skirt is almost done. Probably I can wear it in the next update. Till then, that’s all for now~

I Wanna Call Him Bruno But...


I finally bought a Sony NEX-3 camera!

This whole week, I’ve been busy reading hands-on review for this camera. I’m in so much dilemma whether to go for NEX-5 because I was so tempted with the remote commander mode which not featured in NEX-3. But it's way over my budget, so I had to convince myself that NEX-3 pun okay jugak. Since the reason why I don’t want a dslr is because they’re so bulky and I’m afraid that I’ll be too lazy to take them around with me everywhere I go. So, I want to get the NEX with 16mm lens but they only have offer for the one with 18-55mm lens. I felt sorry for the sales boy; he had to be patient with my indecisive mind, debating myself about this (I couldn’t decide with the color too). So after about an hour at the shop, I settle down with NEX-3 with 18-55mm lens in white color. And again, convincing myself that all my handbags are all oversized, so I don’t have to worry about whether it’ll fit or not. Plus, it’s not heavy at all :D

So took it back, play with it a bit to get myself used to it and I must say that I really love it. The quality of the picture is awesome. So, no more I-want-a-camera whining after this (hopefully!). Now all I need is a will to get myself up early to catch a beautiful sun rise!

Anyway, here’s a few shots that I took yesterday!

the first shot evah~

Whatdaya think? Pretty cool huh? :D

And a friend of mine recommend this photoblog by Ustaz Azhar Idrus. His work is truly amazing. I fell in love with every single of his artwork. You guys should check it out, yo!

And oh! I’m gonna called my camera Sam Winchester for now until I got him a better name. I really wanna call him Bruno though, but my cousin named his fix-gear bike Bruno. But I like Bruno, Bruno sounds cool! Or should I try with Spanish name? Like Cassilas or Torres? Spanish names sound sexy, wee~

Till then, that's all for this update!

p.s: my ipod is called Key Baby. I don’t have a name for my bb yet, maybe I should call him Jjong or something cause they always together :D Yes, I'll go with Jjong for bb~

Sing Me A Love Song

My niece got married last Saturday. And since I couldn’t help much with the preparation, I’ve dedicated myself to be an unofficial door-gifter. The wedding went well – the food is delicious, the bridal dais is totally rocking, the event flow is smooth (thanks to the last-minute mc, my sister Mieyra did a fantastic job, despite the pressure of re-writing everything instead of having her text printed out). She had her akad nikah on Saturday and her reception the next day at Dewan MPAJ. What I really like about her wedding is totally the pelamin. It’s really breathtakingly beautiful!


And Aishah is so gorgeous!


The theme color is lilac and I’m wearing nothing new. Not exactly lilac, but it’s still purple (it's a deep lilac, I must say :D) with black lace on the sleeves and hemline. It’s an expensive gift from my friend Azurah for being her bridesmaid. My second time wearing this and loving it to the max!

With my dad and cousins.

And some camho moment with my sisters before the akad nikah, kekekek!

I wish them all the love and happiness in the world. May Allah bless them for the rest of their life, amin~

p/s: Gah, I have to say this again. I need a camera. My dad won't take my picture with his dslr as many as i want him to, I have to begged for it T__T

Y.E.W! (Year End Wish)

They said I’m a gadget freak. Well maybe I am. After all the vow and pledge that I will never buy anything else after I got my iPod and bb, now I already craving for something else. I want a camera!

So I guessed it all started yesterday. Me and my sibs went out to KL to have a quick shopping, and on the way back to the car park, we saw this restaurant with a nice wall and thought, ‘Hey, why don’t we take pictures?’

So I took out my iPod and we took several pictures, and fast forward to the moment when I view the pictures on my laptop at home and that was when I got very disappointed. Why? Because the pics are so blur!


And I do realize that I NEED to have a camera - at least the compact one if not a DSLR (Ipod just suitable for my cam-ho moment!). I’m so into photography even though I’m not the type who will wake up at six in the morning just to catch the sun rise. I just love taking pictures and I appreciate beautiful artistic one.

So I browse the net a bit for a so-called comparing the specs -hell I must be a genius if I understand all the terms- and immediately fall in love with this Sony Cybershot since it comes in hot colour. I was quite sure that I want to have this until my colleague gave me a half an hour lecture about ‘Why I should get myself a DSLR’ that I was torn apart! And since it’s the end of the year, I’m pretty sure there’ll be an extravaganza offer for Xmas, I don’t know if I’ll end up buying both! XD I wish!
