Hye guys!

It's mother's day yesterday. This year mother's day is a little bit extra special for me cause this is my first time celebrating it as a mother! Alhamdulillah. Now that I am a mother myself, I appreciate my mother even more. 💕 We even become closer now. Thank you Mak for everything. And to my baby girl, thank you for making me a mother. I love you both!😘 

Semoga panjang umur, murah rezeki, bahagia selalu dan Jannatul Firdaus buat kamu berdua.

KonMari Part 1 | Monthly Challenge

01 May 2019

No comments
Salam and hye guys!

I'm back and ready to roll (my sleeves) for this month challenge! It's been awhile since I really wanted to declutter and reorganize my space. So I guess this is finally it! Super excited! Who else got excited to declutter and organize their stuffs? I'm sure I'm not the only one 😂 Btw, I just bought the The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying by Marie Kondo and I'm doing this project while reading it.

I've already started the process which I recorded it in my twitter. Let me just recap a little bit.

Marie Kondo day 1. Starting to regret my life decision... Send help. Why am I doing this to myself?



2nd day, trying to discard which one sparks joy. But everything sparks joy to me how? 

Day 3, this is getting depressing... 

Day 4 guys, letting go is hard... 💔 

 I would like to believe that I am 35% done with my clothes 🎉 

Day 5, everything deserve a second chance, including my clothes.

The beginning of the process was very hard. I get overwhelmed with the amount of clothes I actually accumulated over the years. I am a hoarder, so I kinda kept some of the clothes that I have since I was a kid. To be honest, I decluttered some of my clothes during last Ramadan too. It's hard for me to let everything go at the same time, so I think I might have to follow my own phase. Don't judge. I know that I was supposed to get rid everything that doesn't spark joy anymore. But some clothes are in between spark joy and no longer spark joy, and the condition of the clothes are still good!

I'm selling some of my clothes at Carousell and I'll donate the rest to any charity organization that might benefits from it. Still looking for one.

Anyway, Marie Kondo says that you should sort your belongings into five categories. These help you to sort through your possessions and start discarding things that you don’t need. Having the different categories helps to make your decluttering task a bit less overwhelming.

The five categories are: 

  1. Clothing 
  2. Books 
  3. Paper 
  4. Misc 
  5. Mementos 

So, I'm just going to focus on the first category which is clothing.

Subcategories for clothing: 

  1. Tops
  2. Bottoms
  3. Clothes that should be hung
  4. Socks/tights 
  5. Underwear 
  6. Bags 
  7. Accessories 
  8. Special event clothing (e.g., swimwear, uniforms) 
  9. Shoes 
  10. Extra for me : Scarves/ Hijab/ Tudung

I'm gonna update my progress from time to time. This will not by one month challenge, maybe 3 months. I hope I will not exceed 3 months! Praying that I can finish everything as soon as possible. Wish me luck!

To organize and clean space,
AS

Happy Birthday B!

15 April 2019

Today is B's birthday. We're just arrived back in Malaysia yesterday, so I don't really have time to prepare anything. It was super random last minute idea that I decided to search for "resepi kek milo cawan microwave".

I am that type of person who will read more than 2 recipes and love to adjust them on my own. But I kinda fail this time as the cake turn out to be "liat". Sebab kita sesuka hati je pi letak milo cereal dalam tu juga. 😂 But B said "sedapnyaaa", eleh ambil hati la tu.

Anyway, to many years together, insyaAllah.

Our 1st Anniversary 🌸

21 December 2018

No comments
Assalamualaikum and hye everyone! 

This year anniversary was a tough one for us. I was still in my confinement, so there is no celebration obviously. What make it worst is all of us were kinda sick on that day. I was in real pain. 😭  

This is how we celebrated our anniversary. 

Early morning, baby went to Klinik Kesihatan for jaundice check up. Poor baby need to get an injection every two days. But she is a strong girl. Alhamdulillah everything was fine. At the same time, nurses came to my house to have my 20 days check up. This was where the nightmare started. The nurse told me that my jahitan luka bersalin dah tercabut dan tak cantik. So I have to go to clinic or hospital immediately. That's why I have been feeling so much pain since the beginning of the week. 😭 

So at the evening we went to Megaklinik Zahran to check. This was where it started to get worst. The doctor said I have to go to the hospital, nak jahit semula luka tu katanya. 😭 I cried really hard on our way to the hospital. The trauma from the first stitches on my labour day was still real. What makes it worst is B is not feeling well also. 😓 Both Mommy and Walid were not well.

Luckily alhamdulillah, when we arrived at PPUKM, the doctor did the check up and told me that I don't need to have any further stitches, I just need to eat antibiotic and to clean my wound at Klinik Kesihatan every two days. Fuhhh

And that's how we celebrated our 1st anniversary. 😂

Happy anniversary B! 💙 Marrying you is the best decision I've ever made. Thank you for being so supportive and understanding from the very beginning of the marriage to my pregnancy journey and until now. 

Now I'm sure you gonna wake up every night to burp our baby, change her diapers and bath her everyday. 👀

I love you so much and I thank Allah everyday for giving me such a wonderful husband and partner for life. We can do this sayang 💪🏻💞You’re the answer to my prayer 💙 Happy 1st anniversary, love! Here’s to grow old together & more love, happiness, memories and adventures! 🙌🏻💞✨

Scavenger Hunt Surprise! 🕵🏻‍♀️

19 October 2018

No comments
Salam. Hye guys!

In my previous post, I gave B a New Dad Kit. So he decided to be more extra than me, #competitive 😂 and decided to give me a scavenger hunt surprise the next day.

It was after Isya prayer, which he insisted us to pray downstair instead of upstairs in our room. I was playing my phone before prayer and he was like, "Put down your phone!" I was like, "What? Why?" After prayer, he asked me to look at my instagram, and I found this:

I was like, "Ah sudah. Apa pula ni?"
He insisted me to wear my telekung after that. 😂 I was force to go upstairs and downstairs about three times! B, you realized that your wife is 9 months pregnant now? 🙄 #semput Btw, I was so slow and bimbo even though the clue was super easy! 😂 I'm not ready for a sudden hunt! I swear I'm better than this! 😂


The night ended with me eating ice cream, which one of the clue was inside the ice cream. And a map for the next morning. So much effort! I thought the ice cream was the last present. Because you know, he didn't allowed me to eat ice cream that much nowadays. I was so naive. 😂


 I have to water mom's orchids the next morning and I finally got my present! 🌸


Super excited!
By the time I was unboxing the present, I think I know what it is, and I'm right!
Air Diffuser and Essential Oils! 💙

I've been asking him for this since my early pregnancy! I always wanted one of this since I first saw it in Lavendaire's video. He gave me the best one, and a box of essential oils too!



Thank you husband for your effort. Always trying your best to fulfill whatever I want and always find a way to make it more special. 💙 May Allah bless you with lots of rezk and barakah in your life.

May everyone find a good spouse that will never stop making effort to us.

Take care,
AS

Sabrina's Turns 11! 🎈

05 October 2018

Hye.

So my niece wanted a birthday party. 🎈


Gold, Turquoise and Purple.
Just 4 days before her birthday, she asked me to prepare for her birthday party. It was supposed to be a mermaid theme, but I have limited time!  💆🏻‍♀️  So we have to go with whatever I can get.


A.THE INVITATION

On Wednesday night, as soon as she asked me to make her an invitation card, I quickly google and edit it. Siap ada invitation card ok 💅🏻 #makcikoverachiever She was so excited, she sent the invitation card to her friends at 11.30pm 😂


B. THE PREPARATION

The next day, I went shopping at Eco Shop where everything was RM2! Dragged Fina with me. Bought candies for candy buffet and some present for games.

From Eco-shop, Jajan Borong and Speedmart.
Omg the tallest candles I've ever seen! From My One Shop.
Some of the present bought at Eco-Shop, some sponsored by me!
Need to top up the present cause apparently it's not enough.
Lucky draw!
Challenges for poison box!
I balut surat khabar, setiap balutan I selang-seli dengan hadiah, challenge card or some balutan kosong. Lepas tu buat-buat macam ada balutan hadiah instead of surat khabar macam eh dah menang, rupanya belum. Make it interesting! Semua macam excited "eh dapat hadiah?" "Yeay tak kena challenge!" It was hard to come out with the challenges because I was stuck between this is too childish and they are not that mature yet. 😂 

Challenges (dares) for poison box! 🎁 
1. Sing us a song! 
2. Silently enact an animal until any person guesses it! (Charades) 
3. Name 3 parts of the body spelled with only 3 letters. 
4. Sing 'Happy Birthday' pressing your nose on both sides! 
5. Say the tongue twister: "She sells seashells on the sea shore" 5 times! 
6. Put lipstick on your face (blindfolded)! 
7. You are lucky no. 7! This is not a challenge. You've just received one of the lucky draw prizes! 
8. Hug tiang and scream I LOVE YOU! 
9. Dance or cat walk 
10. Truth or dare

It's the poison box!
Thanks Fina for helping me with the wrapping gifts, poison box and cutting all the stuff for decorations! 💙

C. THE PARTY 🎈

Decorations and candy buffet. 💙
My so not baby anymore.
With her friends + 2 more coming late. I was nervous that nobody will show up, cause they have exam on the next day. 😂 Thanks for coming kids.
Rara Kitchy. Our fav cake shop. Ready made cause my sister tak sempat nak order awal2. 
Pizza, maccaroni and nuggets.
D. THE GAMES

It's game time! I've managed to prepare 3 games only. Everyone get to bring back homes presents + goodies. I forgot to take picture of the presents and goodies. 🙍🏻‍♀️

1. Musical chairs. Of course it's a must for every party regardless your age!


2. Pop the balloons but lucky draw style! I'm creative right? 😂 Not the typical pop the balloons game or not your typical lucky draw.


3. Poison box! 🎁 My favourite game. 



11 years old now. My first baby niece 😢 This year she wanted to celebrate with her friends. No more surprises 💆🏻‍♀️ Layan je la. Almost a teenager. I was so confuse with the decorations and games, because she is not a children anymore but not yet a teenager. 😂

Best aunt award please 🎖🎗🏆🎈 And make sure you organize my baby birthday party, 11 years from now on! 😂

I hope you have a lovely birthday party. I hope you enjoy it and will remember this party for the rest of your life. Just like how I remember my 9th birthday party which Kakak and Kakchik organized for me. (That's why I have to organize for you now 😂 #balasjasa) No, I actually enjoy doing this!

I love you even though you've becoming more annoying and rebel nowadays. #teenager

Lots of love,
Your favourite Mommy 💙

Royal Floria Putrajaya 2018 🌸

14 September 2018

No comments


Salam. Hye guys!




So this year is actually my first time going to Floria. 🌸  I don't know why I haven't been to one before. I love flowers since I got one from my parents during my first convocation day.


It was so random that weekend, my husband and I wanted to go out but we don't know where. And then he remember about Floria, and ask me whether I want to go or not. I knew about Floria before he asked me, but I don't really bother about it before. #guilty It was super fun but tired for this 7 months pregnant lady over here. I should bring Mak's wheelchair hehe And we forgot to bring an umbrella! It was burning hot! Everything was instaworthy background!




I joined the video and photo contest this year! #floria10years #floriashareyourmoment Took a lot of pictures and videos, eventhough I walk like a penguin now 😂 It was enjoyable date with my husband. 💙  I used to pray to God, "Ya Allah, give me a husband who likes to take picture and video of me." And God give me someone who LOVES to take my pictures and videos of me, which sometimes I feel like too much, please stop taking my videos, I'm tired. 😂

Unfortunately, it's not my luck this year. But I love the winner video! So I'm okay with that. Thank God they chose the winner properly. Better luck next time to me! Check out my video below. 🎥

Tanah Akhirku | Teater @ Istana Budaya

05 September 2018

No comments

Last Friday, which was on Merdeka day, my husband and I went to this  show at Istana Budaya titled "Tanah Akhirku". Thank you to UNMC Literature and Drama Society for the free tickets! They were so nice trying to book the tickets for us even when it was fully booked on other dates. We had fun! And which Malaysian doesn't like free tickets? 😂

We honestly thought that the tickets were for the 2nd floor since they were the cheapest ticket (RM40), but to our surprise, we were seated at the stalls, which is very near to the stage and at the very center! Imagine how excited we were when we first seated at the hall. 😂 I've never seated that close and center like that before at Istana Budaya.

Anyway, I love all the actor and actress in the play. They were so good! Aerel Zafrel wasn't supposed to be at the center of the poster tho, he is not the main character to this story, Lim Mei Fen was. You go girl! Girl power. 

The storyline was okay. Chinese  60% was in Mandarin, but they provided subtitle on the screen. But to be honest, there were nothing special or impactfull to the show. I was expecting more on the creativity part. The stage was okay but not that grand or beautiful. The sound effect was too loud.
"Tanah Akhirku" is a merdeka theatre about unity and patriotism, set against the backdrop of a Chinese tin mining community in Nanyang. In Nanyang, the coolies from China and India are being exploited to make money for the British colonists while the local Malay royalties who defend the interest of native Malays too suffer from "power grab" by the British. Oppressed under the "divide and rule" tactic of the cunning British colonist, the people of different backgrounds who speak different languages put aside their differences, prioritize harmony to win against racism, injustice and dominance of corrupted power. It shows different ethnic struggles in Malaya during British colonists and how they struggle to show that national spirit should be given more attention than racial ties to maintain harmony in Malaya and to defend their fate from foreign powers.

Panggung ‘Hujan Bakawali di Rumah Tuhan’

08 August 2018

No comments
Date : 4th August 2018
Venue : Twenty20Two
1 anthology. 2 volumes. 1 staging. 8 artists.


Last Saturday, Zahidah and I attended an event by RIPTA, a special staging adapted from the anthology of prose and poetry 'Hujan Bakawali di Rumah Tuhan'. Guess what? This is not our first time. Last year, we both attended the first event by RIPTA, Kamar Rahsia 'Untuk Yang Telah Pergi'. #supportive #dakdakdeep (How funny, I haven't 'met' my husband yet during the last event, and now I'm married and still going to this kind of event.)

It has become a tradition of RIPTA, for every published anthology, its readers will surely be celebrated through an intimate event. This time around, a special staging was organized with the purpose of to "bring prose and poetry out of the book". The 8 writers were paired to raise their poems out of the book and continue on stage. The ideas and concepts of offerings are divided into four, namely poetry through visuals, poetry through drama, poetry through dance, and poetry through music. The shows were alternated with a casual talk about books with the host, Jamal Raslan.


The book 'Hujan Bakawali di Rumah Tuhan' is an anthology prose and poetry twinned (two volumes). It was written by seven Malaysian poets and an Indonesian poet. The theme is a secret, prayer, and hope regardless of religion or belief.

My Skincare | Routine

11 July 2018

No comments
Hye guys. Just a short update. To be honest, I just started to care about my skin this year. I've been asking my friends about their skincare routine and product, but I haven't started everything until two weeks ago. Thanks Azra, Teera and Hara. I've been following Iman and Dena to know more about the routine and which product to use. But I haven't buy anything new, I just used the old skincare that I used to buy but never used. Until I've finished those, I will buy the new one during sale at drugstore. 

I can't remember the steps so I post this beside my bathroom's mirror.

MORNING

1. Cleanser
2. Toner
3. Eye Cream
4. Moisturizer
5. Sunscreen
6. BB Cream/Foundation
7. Vaseline

NIGHT

1. Cleanser
2. Exfoliate
3. Toner
4. Eye Cream
5. Serum
6. Sheet Mask
7. Moisturizer
8. Vaseline

These are the products that I currently used:

Morning | Routine

05 March 2018

No comments
These past few weeks, I've been training myself to wake up early. By early I mean, 5 o'clock in the morning. 5AM! 



I've been watching too much youtubers where they did something like "my morning routine", "how I wake up at 5AM every morning", and "why I wake up early" kinda stuff. So I thought to myself, why haven't I done this before? Islam has actually taught us all of this wayyy earlier. Allah asks us to wake up early to pray tahajjud, and to have our time before fajr. All great and successful people in this world wake up early in the morning, especially our beloved Rasullulah s.a.w. To be one of the great and successful people, the first step is to wake up early.

Why I want to start waking up early?

I love my me-time. Waking up early gives me ample time to do my own stuff, to be more productive  and focus, and to just chill.
