Didn’t expect to bump into En_Me on the first day of 2009 when me and my friends were doing our photo shoots at the Lake Garden (Taman Tasik Perdana). The best thing is he’s the one who recognized me at first. I was about to say hi to him because the moment I saw him I was like I think I’ve seen his face somewhere but can’t recall where. And suddenly, he asked me “Nono isn’t it?” … I didn’t answer him but I replied him with a question too “En_me isn’t it?” :P Hehe. And yeah, I met En_Me and in the picture above, that’s me and En_Me! Sorry, I need to crop his face part because he requested me to do so gitewww… Gitewww is En_Me trademark by the way. Haha. :) :) :) Anyway, nice to meet you En_Me!

Alhamdulillah, my first day of 2009 was a blast! It started great, filled with joys and laughter, excitement and it ends with a real contentment that is truly indescribable. Thank you Hussain, Ijad, Opie and Shud for the great company… Not to forget, En_Me, because he’s part of the excitement too. I think I have nothing much to say here. Just enjoy the pictures below okay? :)

Actually I want to get myself a new compact camera but I think I need to hold it for a moment. I need to save my money for my trip to Perhentian Island, and Melaka. Nono, remember priority, priority, priority… Hm. :(

Anyway, here are some of my art piece(s):

Throughout this year I’ve been through a few of ups and downs. I gained a lot of things and at the same time, I lost a lot of things too. It is impossible to have everything, with the same “portion” at the same time. So I need and I’ve sacrificed certain things for another thing though sometimes, I made a lot of mistakes in prioritizing. But what ever it is, I have nothing need-to-be-hated or need-to-be-regretted of… The 365 days throughout 2008 was really worth it, really. I learned a lot about myself and also about the real life better. It is indeed unbelievable and amazing at how fast the time flew, and at how much I grew, and at how much new people I knew. And guess what, I always made it through the rains! My days were painted with colorful rainbows and I am truly content with it. Alhamdulillah… ;)

For the upcoming 2009 which will be tomorrow, here are few things need to be accomplish. Hehehe…

1. Slim down! Slim down! Slim down! Eat less, swimming more!
2. Obtain good results and improve it (or at least maintain it!). Not ruin it!
3. Spend less, save more, save more and save more. And earn more if possible. Hehe…
4. Read more! Especially engineering related stuffs.
5. Snorkeling at Perhentian Island! ;P
6. Capture a lot of beautiful pictures. Must! …and
7. Be a good girl. Insha Allah…

Lastly, wishing you a blast, bless and bliss days throughout the year of 2009… May your life be filled with lot of fun, joys, happiness and of course, love. Muacks!

So. I’ve been away for the past few days. Baruk jak balit dari Sarawak (Just came back from Sarawak). Best kali jak (Truly fun). Best gilak2!(Really really fun) Apa nok paling best kamek nak padah sitok is;  drebar nya bait gilak (The best thing that I want to tell you here is that; the driver is very good). Serious, sangat-sangat frenly (Seriously, he’s very friendly).
Should I ever find myself surprisingly married, I think it would have to be to a Sarawakian. Or at least, someone who can speak it very well. The whole time I was there, just listening to the lingo made me smile - it’s so attractive to listen to. Imagine that kind of marriage; half the time would be spent trying to figure out what he’s saying, which means things would never get boring, and if we’re arguing, all I’d have to do is listen to him speak and that’d be the end of the fight. Sounds like a good deal, don’t you think?

Reading the paragraph above really made me smile :)

Talking about marrying a Sarawakian, when I was in Miri for my last semester breaks recently I’ve seen a lot of Sarawakians were getting married with Semenanjung people. Seriously, it is just like a trend you know and I think it is funny as well (funny in such cute ways lahhh). But personally, I think it is a good sign because it really shows that Sarawakians nowadays are more open minded and less stereotypes towards this kind of marriage.

Sik apa mun kahwin orang lepeh kinek tok. Semua orang sama ajak bah. Yang penting hatinya bait. Jauh-jauh pun mun dah namanya jodoh, susah juak kita nak madah apa nak…? Selalunya yang sik berkenan orang tua-tua lah.

But beware, Sarawakians are very garang especially the girls. Nang bena ranggat I tell you!!! :P

Pening?

Oh, bagus lah… There’ll be more bahasa Sarawak entries from me after this. Mun kamek rajin lah ooo?

:)   :)    :)

Sleepover at Pika's last Thursday...

Dear Pika, congratulations for the passing. OMG, I can’t believe you’ve graduated! And I was extremely excited when you told me that you have been selected to attend an interview at Shell Kuala Lumpur on the 31st. All the best to you Pika! And yes, definitely I’ll pray for your success… **peluks kuat-kuat**

I just came back from watching the Twilight few hours ago. And I’ve been browsing the web searching and reading all the information about Edward Cullen (the main character in the Twilight) because I’ve fell for Mr. Vampire Edward Cullen. Seriously, Edward is amazingly handsome… Hehehe.

I believe there will be Twilight II after this because according to the Wikipedia, there are another 4 appearances of Edward Cullen in the Twilight series (novel) - New Moon, Eclipse, Breaking Dawn, and Midnight Sun. Seriously, I really-really-really hope for it… **Pray**

Oh, Edward Cullen! *Faint*

P.s: I really wanna read Twilight!

P.s.s: I am done with all my so called research about Edward and it’s now 4.32am!

P.s.s.s: Kepada kamu berdua, terima kasih kerana memilih Twilight ya! You know who you are, kan? ;)

My reason why written by Murni.

I find it hard to asnwer ppl’s questions as to why im still unattached. Most ppl call me picky, memilih, mengada, idealistic, high-maintenance, silly..you name it; chances are I’ve been called it.

It makes me sad sometimes, the constant questions, the pressure, the nagging, the negative remarks. But then again, I’ve come to believe that if choosing to remain single because I havent found the right one, the one that will truly make me happy is silly and stupid and makes me memilih, then I guess I dont mind being all these things.

The thing is, I dont wanna be with someone for the sake of just BEING with someone.

I’ve seen on so many occasions, ppl getting involved when their hearts aren’t into it. They are together for all the wrong reasons, and in the end they won’t last. They are unhappy and alone even when they arent alone. Do you know wht i mean?

My gf once observed me talking to a close guy friend and when my conversation with him was over, she had tears in her eyes. I asked her why she was sad, and she said in her three yr relationship, she has never, not ONCE had so much fun talking to him as I had with my friend tadi.

She went on to say she never tells him abt her probs, her fears, etc. They dont share anything. They just eat together, watch movies together, never saying anything to each other.

I was sad, and thought about her life 30 yrs down the road:

A couple in their fifties, sitting on opposite ends of the couch, watching TV with this uncomfortable, heavy silence hanging in the air. No lively banter, no laughter, just two ppl sitting together. Just enduring, bearing through the day together.

That’s not the life I want.

I want to find someone who shares the same fundamental principles with me. I want to be with my best friend who can lift my spirits and makes me even happier when i think life cant get any better. I want to be with the one that loves me, NOT IN SPITE of my differences, but because of them. I want to marry the one that makes me happy, comfortable and so at ease that I sleep with no worries and wake up with a smile on my face.

He could be a simple guy, with a bit of a belly, with japanese slippers and unkept hair, that has a beaten up kancil tht screeeeches when he drives it, with not even two pennies to rub together. I dont care, as long as he is the right one for me. (and is smart and hardworking so he can work his way through poverty-hehe)

When i find such a person, i will settle down. I will say yes. I will be so loyal to you. Learn to cook for you. Wipe your tears for you. Leave my corporate career and stay home for you. Pack my bags leave my comfortable house and live in a run-dwn flat for you. Be whatever you want me to.

Be your Siti Khadijah for you.

Until i meet such person, I will stay here. I will live my life, do my job, take care of my family and take each day as it comes. I do not want to pursue this man at every corner and turn. I truly believe that Allah has this man for me, somewhere, and he is waiting for me as patiently as i am waiting for him.

So pls, no more questions. No more negative remarks, like “whts wrong with you? just pick one! why so memilih! nanti tua org dah tak nak baru tahu.”

I have my reasons for being unattached: I am waiting for the man that Allah has chosen for me.

And i think that is a good reason.

P.s: I have my reasons for being unattached too. And for those special people who knew it, just keep it to yourself okay? ;)

I’ve posted the first part of why girls should marry an engineer (which is not written by me) in the previous post. It makes sense kan? Anyway, if you are asking and wondering why I wanna marry an engineer so much and so curious about it then here are 10 things I love about an engineer. :P :P :P :P :P

1. I like their geeky look… They aren’t nerd. But there’s “a look” in an engineer that will makes me melt like a hot chocolate topped on a hot baked cake. I don’t know how to describe it. Really. But it really melts me… :P :P :P
2. Engineers are a group of people that you’ll definitely feel fun to be with. I’ve been living and grew up in an environment of a so called engineer-wannabe-is-everywhere around me for almost 4 years. I think they know how to treat you well and know how to make you feel comfortable.
3. Most of them are kind-hearted and very helpful. Trust me… They’ll try their best to help you if you have problem with something especially in understanding things related to the engineering stuffs.
4. Most of them are funky, but still smart and tidy in their appearances. And simple. I like!
5. They are very creative, but never boasting about it.
6. They are soooooo cool and funny in their own ways. It’s cute…
7. You can talk about almost everything with an engineer, from religious stuffs, politics, socials, arts, music, love… Everything! They will never ever bore you.
8. Their abilities in analyzing something really amaze me. They have a wide outlook on something… Engineers are a great analyzer I guess. Hehe.
9. They are very confident, competent, and rational, most of the time. ;)
10. Lastly, I wanna marry an engineer because I wanna marry an engineer lah. They know how to hack my love’s database kot and make me interested to them… Hehe. ;)

But… If I was meant to be with someone from different field, then I think it is okay because I believe Allah knows what is best for me. ;)

If it’s meant to be, it will be. It’s destiny. – Music & Lyrics (Movie)

Last one from me, when it comes to love, honestly it is very damn hard to deal with. What really scares me the most is, if I fall in love with a wrong guy. It is just a waste of… Everything! Probably it depends on who you are, or to be exact, what kind of girl you are. I am a one man woman and I am very sure with it (asehman…hehe.). But seriously, I don’t want to have a lot of guys in my life. Probably to some people it is something prestigious to them, a measure of how hot or cool they are but to me it isn’t something that can be proud of at all. But I would be very proud if I am with the right one and… Extra proud if I am with the halal one. You know what I mean? So yeah, one-man-woman… ;)
