Hye guys! 

Quick little update so I won’t be too lost 😂 It has been a pretty hectic month! I couldn’t find time to write in my journal or to update my blog. If you read my post in the future, just to let you guys know that sometimes I backdated my blog post and sometimes I write wayyy in advance. So yeah. That’s the only way I can try to be consistent. 

Anyway, went to Fraser Hill for B’s family day and then to Sungai Besar for my father’s family day. Will talk all about it insyaAllah in the next post. Wanted to edit videos for so long, and trying to be consistent but I can’t find the rhythm yet. Now that I have made the Women’s Day video, I hope I can at least update a video once a week. I’ll see how. 

I will be busy with my SIL’s wedding preparations and I have to plan and pack for this spontaneous vacation B decided to go. Fuhh busy. On another note, I’m so thankful for everything that have happened in these past few weeks. 💞 

Have a good day everyone! Can't wait to be more productive! ✨

Here are some random quotes I discovered during the life changing phase of my life, and it has been dear to me until now.

1. Go for whatever makes you happy.

3. Be the best version of yourself. The best project you'll ever work on is yourself.

4. It is not about being a perfectionist, it is about enjoying the process. It is nor about the destination, it is about the journey. Embrace every moment.

5. The secret of life; accepting where you are in the present & making most of what you have.

My Favourite Youtubers ✨

Salam and hye guys!

If you know me personally, you know how much I love watching youtube. I love watching inspiring and uplifting content. Whenever I feel unmotivated or just mentally exhausted, I will watch youtube's video. So here are my top 5 current favourite youtubers.


"Life is an art. Make it your masterpiece."

If I haven't emphasize enough, how much I love this channel and how much it has changed my life. From personal growth to journaling prompts to organizing and decluttering stuffs to creating habits and positives thinking to books, essential oils and all the lifestyles that I imagine my life to be.





The first time I watch her video, I was hooked! A fresh reminder and inspiring content. Showing how Islam is a way of life. Reflections upon reflections, a little bit of Quran and Hadith dose, sometimes she talked about Seerah. It is so amazing how she can reflect and tell a story based on what happened in everyday life. Overall, she makes me want to become a better muslim.

These two are my top 2 favourites. I watch every single one of their videos. Among others that I watch sometimes is Michelle B, Vivy Yusof and Zher Penn. I used to watch a lot of Nigahiga, Wongfu Production and KevJumba. Good old days.

What about you? Do you have any youtubers recommendations?

Love and light,

Family Day @ Fraser's Hill

08 March 2019

No comments
Hye guys!

So last month, my husband brought his family to Fraser's Hill. I'm not sure whether I'm getting old or what, but it was super dizzy journey up to the hill! I remember how much I wanted to throw up while having to bear with Nafeesa's crying. I can't hold her to breastfeed cause I was too dizzy. I've never had a morning sickness while pregnant with Nafeesa (alhamdulillah), I can't imagine how it feel like to have nausea everyday. You mommy out there is so strong!

Anyway, before we were driving up to the Fraser's Hill, we had lunch at Aiman Tino's mom restaurant, D' Kerutuk Ry at Kuala Kubu Bharu. The ayam masak merah is so delicious we just had to have more on the way back. And her mom is super friendly, she even remembered us. Funny thing is, we saw Sufian Suhaimi there, and Nafeesa even took some picture with Uncle Pian.

  



Here are some of the places that we went in Fraser's Hill:

1. Fraser's Clock Tower

 

 


 


 



This is an essential photo stop, there are a lot of instaworthy spot to take picture, it has old English vibes. You won't miss the clock tower as it stands in center of the old English village square.

2. The Paddock


 
     


This place have archery and horse riding.

3. Sanyi Orchid Garden


A flower nursery that specialises in orchids. There are plenty of different species of orchids, you can buy them!

4. Aida Daniya Strawberry Garden



 

The strawberry ice cream wasn't available, the place is not that impressive to be honest. We just had waffles and drinks.

5. Hemmant Trail & Abu Suradi Trail


 

 

 

There are several hiking trails around the hill. Their entrance is usually marked by signboards. There is also a waterfall but we didn't got the chance to go to there. We went to the shortest trail avaiable which is Hemmant Trail and we continue with Abu Suradi Trail.

6. Allan's Water



 

 


This is a former reservoir turned into a boating and fishing attraction. The boating cost RM8 for 15 minutes. We went on Monday, so there is no other people. They are very nice and not really that strict with the timing. We also give the fish food. RM4 for one plastic.

Overall, it was a nice place for some unwind and to have family day or even friends gathering. It is unexpectedly satisfying short-stay destination. We had a lot of fun! We didn't have a bbq because the weather is bad, but we cooked in the kitchen. We had dinner and socks party. Thanks Kak Syah for cooking breakfast everyday.

 

 

Looking forward for more family day in the future!

Love,
AS

Intentions | Social Medias

04 March 2019

No comments
Hye guys.

Remember the first hadith, where everything starts with niat? Well, the same concept should be apply when using our social medias. We get to choose our own intention for having any social media platform that we use. Some might say that their intention is to connect, to build community, to see and share the beauty of our life. Plus, to see the beauty and the authenticity in the lives of those we follow, too. But surely none of our intention is to have our phone buzzing with even more notifications than it already does! Here are some of the way for us to create our intention for social medias.

1. Start with your WHY
  • Why are you on it?
  • What do you hope to get out of it?
  • What do you hope to give through it?
  • What are you aspire to share?
  • Why are you putting in time, effort, and energy to create content and utilize the chosen social media sites?
2. Set Goals
  • What do you want to achieve by using every of your social media? Write down each one of them specifically!  
  1. Facebook
  2. Instagram
  3. Twitter
  4. Pinterest
  5. Blog
  6. Tumblr
  7. Youtube
  8. Swarm
3. Focus on the content
  • What type of content do you plan on sharing with your friends or followers? 
  • How will this add value to their life?

"By knowing our intention, we’ll know how best to use social media. We'll know when to check in, what to share, who to connect with, which platform to use and how best to connect with them.

We need to use our social media intentionally. Whether or not we want to use social media to enhance our lives, rather than take away from them. Whether we want Facebook and Instagram and Twitter (and every other social platform that comes along behind them) to be intentional tools for ours and our communities’ greatest good . . . or not.

The choice is always yours. And mine."

I want to inspire people, not to plant the seeds of jealousy on others. I hope everyone can take the positive in my posts rather than taking them negatively. Here are some of the reasons why I'm using my social medias.

  1. To share information, knowledge and lifestyle with others.
  2. To find knowledge and get inspire from others.
  3. As my mini diaries, so I can look back at my life and see, okay I'm doing good.
  4. To stay connected with my friends.
I hope you have a good intention why you are on social medias too.

Lots of love,
AS

See you guys soon!
