If you need an answer from me, all you need to do is merely ask. I’d gladly answer for as long as its not against my will or something too personal.
I’ve had one too many cases where people around me assume certain things. Which I believe is unfair for both parties. Why so? Both parties won’t know the real deal. Fyi, there’s always too sides of the story.
Save the drama instead shall we? So ask if you’re in doubt. Or if you need an explanation. Don’t keep mum. It gets you nowhere and might hurt you both.
Let it off your chest. Get the answer you deserve. Fine that closure within you.

I’ve lost two grandfathers, one grandmother, one step-grandmother, an uncle and a few friends throughout my 25 years.

Most of it was shocking. Some was a painful process. Nonetheless, it hurts. I miss them. It’s painful to watch them slip away from you.

Today, I watched a dear aunt of mine laying on the bed with all sorts of tubes going through her nose and mouth. It looked painful. But she didn’t budge. Called out her name with no response. She’s in the deepest sleep known to man, coma. I miss how jovial she was. Making jokes. Remembering going for Hari Raya at her place. How she loves coming over to our house. Eating the cookies I made.

There was this one time, when I was much younger. I served her my burnt cookies and she still at them with a big smile on her face.

As I was sitting next to her with a Yasin in hand. I thought I saw her moving her head. I thought I saw it twice. Maybe am delusional at that point. But even my dad said he saw it. My dad touched her hand. There was no response.

Family members have gathered. Hoping she will fight. Hoping for a miracle.

I’ve learn my lesson. I won’t let the people I love slip away. I will cherish each and everyone of my family members and friends. I won’t hold back in love. We will never know when our time is up or theirs for all that matters.

I love my family. I love my friends. I love you.

xx

p/s : Don’t go just yet Teh. We all love you. Fight.

pp/s : By the way, my lovely aunt has passed on.

Not yet late twenties. Now I am right in between. Am officially mid twenties. Turned 25 on Monday. While my mum turned 53. Yes, we were both born on the very same day. Pretty cool ain’t it?

I had a gut feeling that this year’s birthday would be awesome. Boy was I right. It was truly magnificent. I feel really special, loved, blessed and flattered. It was good. I took my family out for a Sunday brunch as Monday was a working day. Celebrated mum and myself. Went out the whole day. Scouted some interesting stuff that I wouldn’t mind owning soon :p

I purposely removed the facebook birthday reminder. I wanted to see how many actually remembered my birthday without the help of it. It feels like you are obligated to wish me coz there’s a reminder on the misserable right hand panel. I for one, have a hard copy of all my TRUE friend’s birthdates in my moleskin. Oh, story of the moleskin for another day. I still miss my bookbindersdesign like crazy! It was a test for my friends. Some aced it. Some didn’t :)

Anyways, my birthday was a truly amazing one. My set of girlfriends tried to surprise me. But if failed. Mot, asked me if I was free on Monday. So I made space for them. Everyone else thought I didn’t know about it. Reason being, Ummi was suppose to be my designated driver but she isn’t so familiar with roads just yet as she just got back from Japan. Hehe. So they had to tell me the whereabouts. But I love them for the effort nonetheless.

I got off work pretty late that day itself. So I was in a rush to get ready. Threw on an assemble in split second. Ummi was already downstairs. As I walked towards the car, I saw balloons. So pretty, they were lilac in colour. Am guessing they don’t know my favourite colour or they were just trying to be safe. But they were real pretty. So off we went to KL. The venue was then revealed. Fullhouse, Yap Kwan Seng. Luckily there was no jam. We were the second to arrive.

I helped them setup the table for the party. Hehe. How cute. The birthday girl helping out :P

I was so happy to meet up with my girls. Izyan, who just came back from Japan was there too. Liza, the uber busy fierce career woman. Liyana, the cutest little doctor. Mot, the workaholic auditor who loves to watch movies and work part time. Ummi, the quirky fashionista. It’s amazing how we have all been to different parts of the world. Got seperated. Yet still can be great friends. With different characteristics and what nots. We click together like a magnet. I love this set of girls. Their like the sisters I never had.

My awesome set of girlfriends.

Izyan & I!

Liyana & I.

Liz & I.

Some good, some bad.

During my long Chinese New Year holiday, my family and I went on an impromptu trip to Penang. Oh Penang and it’s glorious and scrumptious food. It was purely a gamble. Confirmed the plans that night and off we went. No hotel bookings no nothing! Had to scout around for hotels. Most were fully booked. But we managed to get a small room in the city.

The trip was fun. Good rest. It was also the very first time I did a long distance drive in my little princess. Dad said am all grown up now :P

Line Clear - A must!

My mum and I

Oh yes, am so sorry for the slow updates. My domain got hacked last week. Lucky for me, my big brother is a whizz. He fixed it. So am still blogging here. Alhamdulillah.

Btw, I was wondering…should I post more of my daily outfit pictures or stuff like that? What say you?
