Awesome Weekend
The weekend was filled with activities, none of the days was a waste.
After work Friday, went to Jakel Shah Alam and then surprise birthday dinner for Dilla Karim. On Saturday, went to a friend's wedding in Kajang then went hunting for hantaran-things. Today, my course mates surprised me (& Huda) with a bachelorette picnic and instead of going out in the evening, I tend to finished off decorationg (of tampal bunga & riben for my nikah favors) and have started to ikat riben for my reception's favors. I am proud :-)
I shall elaborate more on the Bachelorette picnic but I have to sleep early. But here I put a picture people called as "teaser", taken from my Blackberry.....

The One With A Business Woman's Birthday
There is one date in your life that will count your years of living on this earth and that is the birthday date. Fourth December of the year Two Zero One Zero marked the Twenty Five Years of age to a beautiful soul girlfriend - Nur Fadilla Abd Karim, Dilla Karim. Almost twelve years of friendship, the one whom listens to every-single whines and whatnots, the one whom I do crazy things together, the one whom always have pronto plans, the one owns two Channel bags that have been in her dreams since forever, the one whom have the opportunity to travel and bring her friends too, the one whom you can count on to, the one whom is everybody's friend............. and the list goes on and on.
So we planned for her suprise birthday party. It started about a week ago, when June sent us (myself, faiza faiz, nad, sabariah, aida) message in fb about planning etc. But sadly Aida was not able to join us due to some work related meeting done over the weekend, but she gave her full support! Yeay.... So we planned, and I was the one in charged to distract Dilla from smelling anything. I had her to accompany me to buy materials for my "bertandang" and promised her dinner. First plan was to go to Jakel KL but plans went haywire when she wanted to go to Jakel Shah Alam instead. I was nearly giving up, made calls to faiz and then her boyfriend (so that her bf wont take her away from our plan) twas quite hard tho since I had meetings the whole day Friday. She insisted to go SA instead of KL, sikit lagi nak nangis give up and kantoi kan semua. Hehe. BUT I managed to get things under control ;-)
Planned changed from meeting up at Jakel KL to Jakel Shah Alam. I picked her up in Glenmarie then we went to Jakel and did the necessary things. After materials were puchased, I told her that the dinner will be at Las Carretas in Jalan Semantan Damansara. Jun and the rest should arrive BEFORE me, but ended up, me and the birthday girl arrived first. Aijhojho. Confirm dah start kantoi bit by bit. Lebih mengkantoikan when Nad was waiting outside. Aiyak!! Mmg pasrah habis............. Heheh
Btw to Dilla Karim, hope you enjoyed the night. Thanks for being there when I needed you. Thanks for every single freaking thing you have done for me sepanjang kite berkawan. Sorry if there are/were any mistakes done by me. I want to tell you that I am ever so grateful to have you in my awesome circle of friends, you're the cherry on top. Thanks for being the pengapit on my utmost BIG day ever, insyaAllah.
Again, Happy Birthday Cik Dilla Karim!

Of This and That
Good morning!
Finally I have the time to re-structure this blog and whatnots. The absence of internet makes my social networking things very limited. With the 630am out-of-house to work from Monday to Friday, when I come home early/late I will not have the mood to update the blog, and there is no juice to story about.
Btw, started my beautiful Sunday with my-own-way of facial that I learnt from my friends during the college years, I miss that moments (rindu korang Hani, Tasha, Dayah, Mai and Kima!!). Well, havent gone to any facial yet, but this regime is not too bad after all.
First, I scrubed my face with St. Ives Apricot Scrub.
After washing with scrub, I dried the face and started putting the St. Ives Hydroxy Masque
Waited for at least 5-10 minutes before it got dried up, then washed my face with my facial cleanser (up to urs anyway). I am using Clinique Liquid Facial Soap in Mild
The skin feels better now ;-)
On another note, I finally found the pair of shoe I want to wear during my nikah. After 3 weeks of searching at different malls. Perfect from the design and the height. I purposely took silver with white lining instead of other wise. This is a glimpse of it =p
Met my course mates on Friday for lunch at Dome KLCC. Friday is the only day with 2-hours lunch break and banking hours finishes at 445pm. How awesome is that? KL is freaking crowded in Friday. But so far everything is good =)
I need to get ready to a wedding. Malas, tapi this is my mother's best friend's daughter.

2nd week
Before I start, Salam Aidiladha to all Muslims in the world ;) I wish to be a better Muslim inshaAllah.
I have sent my material to the designer for my reception, 10 December will go there during lunch for fittings. InsyaAllah. My baju nikah also has been sent for beadings. I am anxious and excited at the same time.
On my job, Alhamdulilah syukur to Allah swt. It's my second week there and I am never this grateful. Hopefully things will go well, insyaAllah
Mcm banyak nak tulis, tapi mcm ngntok n malas. Toodles

First Day
I have been to numerous interviews, banks, mncs, sdn bhd..... To date, I've changed 4 jobs in 2 years, 3 banks and 1 sdn bhd........ Was offered by 4 different banks and 1 sdn bhd. Not that something I want to brag about, I dont like or shud I say never like to hop jobs.... But due to certain circumstances, I had to... Especially for better opportunities, growth and benefits and not to forget environment. The petty little things does matter to me..!! Especially toilets, surau, flexibility to pray, my own cubicle!! and colleagues.
I never like to story about my jobs. In short, first was Ma**ank ( 1 year 2 months - environment, salary, friends all were perfect except it was a contract and shift), then to a small Islamic financed based company (lasted only a day), rejected H**C offer for H**B due to higher salary with the later (branch operations - good exposure, SAD working environment, worst boss and senior officers, worst branch condition, NO place to pray!, NO flexibility to pray, WORST experience during Ramadhan, no lunch breaks when there were A HELL LOT of customers, worst thing was the selfish attitude... many more!!!!!!) and finally now I am attached to M. Hopefully, I'll be long here.. First day was ok, but it's quite too soon to judge... Tawakkal..... Oh, I turned down A offer for M tho A offered more.. The little voice in me wanted the M more than the A..
On wedding note, we have received the confirmation from Masjid Wilayah, alhamdulilah! ;-) but we have yet to complete our HIV test AND all the neccesary documents for nikah, byk kerjaaaaa!! Groom's baju melayu for nikah and reception dah siap. My baju nikah will be ready this week, and appointment made for bride's baju reception...... Nikah attire will be sent for beadings... The ticker shows 2 months, 1 week and 6 days already.. NICE! Oh not to forget the drama for our wedding cards. Went to the shop, I was being a diva, padan muka! No more response after this we'll cancel.

Bahulu Perancis
Macaroons.. Sedap gila, so they said.
My own review, the taste is not bad at all. Like Fad said, mcm bahulu tp perisa lain2. And yes, basically mcm bahulu with a lot of sugar added. I ate more than 2 pieces so I think u cant have it too many lah, rasa mual..

Wedding fever
Ran errands today, went to Maybank in Taipan to settle some stuff... Hopefully things will go smoothly with Allah's willing ;-) I have a few intentions if it goes well, and I'm getting married so hopefully things will go well. InsyaAllah.
I'm going to look-see a new queen bed for my room (it'll be bilik pengantin kan) heehee.. Then look-see for things to be given a wedding favours, bunga pahar.. Omg, I just don't know where to start.. Went to see both halls in Bukit Jelutong.. Option (a) nampak kecil, maintenance wise ok, but it's not by itself so parking etc susah. Option (b) maintenance wise (zero-under local council what do u expect), bigger, spacious (tapi seriously kena decorate kow-kow)............................... Entahlah, harap2 ok la.....
On another note, went to Jab's friend's wedding in Bangi..... I like the photographer, and we've asked his quotations for our nikah + receptions (belah lelaki + ppuan)..... Ok pictures *malas tulis

Eid 2010 & sorts
I've lost the passion to write hence a very seldom update from myself. One main reason is due to the internet connection, mom hasn't been paying for streamyx's bill to stop my younger brother who is taking his SPM from continuously be online which he always does. Bosan gila takda internet, and I've been using celcom 3g yg sucks kt Bkt Jelutong.
So, there's only a week left for Eid and so far it has been treating me good. Some pictures fr Eid 2010
Sometime during the Syawal mth, my parents met up with Jab's parents to discuss on the wedding dates and stuff and we have finally decided on the day. It has been brought forward due to some shortcomings. InsyaAllah, tentative date for nikah is on the 22nd January 2011 and tentative date for my reception is on the 23rd January 2011, with Allah's willing. Preps are so far ok, tawakkal je lah sebab tiba-tibe I decided to quit, pendek kata sbb tak suke.
I don't have a single picture for raya with Jab. But since we went to his friend's wedding today, this is the post raya picture together. Haha.
