Should I or should I not?

To kids out there who really want to grow up fast so they can be adults, my advice to you is DON’T! We adults wish to go back to being a kid so that we don’t have to do what adults do. Sometimes it’s tiring being an adult. We adults have so many things to think about, the responsibilities to take care of and the decisions to make. Decision making is tough, especially if you have equally good options to choose from. I hate making decisions but in life we cannot run away from it. We have to make decisions on a daily basis. Even early in the morning when you start your day you have to decide whether you want to get up or sleep in. This is just what we have to do as a human being. Well getting back to the topic, I have to make a decision regarding my future and I have to decide on it soon. So, should I or should I not? I’ll give myself the end of this week to decide

New kid in town

Any of you a fan of Maher Zain here? I bet some of you are. Well, if love Maher Zain's songs try listening to this new singer named Farid Sanullah. He was born in Malaysia but he grew up in Australia. I really like his #1 single Subhanallah. You can listen to the song here: The other song that I like is Don't Forget Allah. You can listen to it here: He also just came out with a full album entitle Don't Forget Alla which has these 2 songs and 6 other songs. I hope you will enjoy his songs as much as I did.

Salam to all, It's been awhile since I've updated this blog. I was a bit occupied during the fasting month hence the lack of update for the past month. Well, it's already the month of Syawal where muslims around the world celebrates Eid Mubarak after a month of fasting. Talking about Eid, my Eid holiday is coming to an end and I'll be heading back to KL tomorrow. So this will be the last night I'll be spending at my grandparents house. When you talk about Eid in Malaysia, the first thing that comes to people's mind is ketupat and rendang (the famous dishes during Eid in Malaysia). These are usually the main dishes that are served during Eid. When I was a kid, I always wonder why my family never served these dishes during Eid even though they are mentioned in most Malay Eid songs. As I grew older, I started to understand that different states in Malaysia have different cultures and in the cultures that my families are in, we don't serve rendang and ke...

Celebrating Birthday at Food Foundry

Image
I went out to eat with my colleagues yesterday to celebrate Vaani’s birthday. We decided to go to Food Foundry since it was close to our office. This is my first visit to this shop though I’ve heard about it previously. The interior Menu. The have a variety of choices We ordered three dishes for the 5 of us since none of us were that hungry and since I have a small appetite after my last fever I didn’t think that I’ll finish a whole meal for myself. In the end, we ordered seafood marinara pasta, aglio olio pasta and lamb shoulder (as per birthday girl request) as the main dishes. Aglio Oglio Seafood Marinara Lamb Shoulder I really like the seafood marinara pasta and the lamb dish. The lamb was tender and the sauce that complimented it went well with the lamb. It was very delicious. As for the aglio olio, personally there’s nothing special to it, just so-so. All the dishes in one plate Cleared all of the plates This place is famous for their mille crepe c...

Inner Though

Back to square one.  My one and only hope got shattered today.  I was rejected by the two and when the email came today, saying that I was unsuccessful, I’m very disappointed.  But as much disappointment that I had, I know that I couldn’t be too sad.  I have to be composed and must have faith that something better is in store for me.  I guess Allah knows what’s best for me and maybe this is not the best for me now.  Shoulder straight and chin up, I will not give up.  I will try again next year and I will not stop trying until I get it, period.

Saying Goodbye

It’s already the end of the month and tomorrow will be the half year mark for this year. Time really flies and half year is already gone. Bidding goodbye to the month of May means saying goodbye to my three beautiful friends. They are all going their separate ways for a better future (wedding, work and holiday). Selvi's last day Sending Maslina off at the airport My Puteri Lilian on her last day Wan Ling's farewell messages I wish all of you the best in whatever you do in the future and hope that our paths will cross again in the future. Till then~
