Welcome, 2013!

Yes, I have let this blog collecting dust (I know!); but actively socializing on fb, instagram & twitter. In that order. I've been starting my photo-a-day at my fb acc, with of course a few hits and misses. I've decided that I will continue the project in my long abandoned blog. So, hello again!!

My last photo for the year 2012 is 3 years old (I think!) wall deco sticker. I love my rented apartment, no doubt about that. It was like love at first sight. Now, that I'm buying the apartment (Yippie! Wish me luck!); it is so convenient for me to document the process. This is going to be a long in-progress renovation. And I'm crossing my hands hard and keep praying for the best.

31.12.2012: Goodbye sticker..you've served us well. Welcome #2013..
new year, new deco!

I may not take photo of my house only as I have other plan lined up this year. So, the theme would be @home. Something close to home, heart and me.

So, dear friends..all the best in your future endeavour. Let's cherish today as it's our last. Welcome 2013. Bring it on!

To start off the new year, here's my first photo of the year. View from moi balcony.

something about health :)

This is old, too..:D

I have gone to a medical check up somewhere late last year...and my uric acid is just a little beyond the borderline!!! 0.359 whereby the border is 0.357. yes, yes..a little is too little but if compared to my last medical check up..err maybe 0.1 something (somewhere around 2007, I think!) it's a bit skyrocketted~ :( 

I've been forgetting about it for a while, and suddenly this morning..I've the urge to look at it again, and it occurs to me that I must do something about it.

Hence, I've been doing a bit digging and would try to follow this tips on How to Lower Uric Acid Levels Naturally In 3 Simple Steps.

hehe..so the steps are:
1) Drink more water <--please do!
2) Consume a baking soda solution <--err, will do (eventually)
3) Change to a low purine diet <--will try..

Please read the article for more information. :)

ps: I've read in the result folder (there's a bit information on what to eat for reducing uric acid), foods that you can eat freely includes coffee~!! Haha...so, please expect me to drinks more of this :>

breakfast, this morning @10am :)

Selamat Pagi!!

I just got back from a very long holiday that caused me a very home-sicky ME.. haha. (oh, actually it's been a week) but, I have not yet looked thoroughly at my zillions pictures!!! I really wanted to share it to the world, but I'm so lembabs~ I cannot do anything! Well, it just me..I'm gonna reveal all once ready!!

huhu..this is one picture during museum hopping @JakartaKota.  bump
into Komunitas Sepeda (hope I got that right). err, actually want to post
pix of sunrise@Jogja but I have resources issue :>

*AND better be ready..as I have deadlines on the picture printing~ Rugi whoa...dah bayar untuk 100 keping nie!! so, get your butt up, Woman!!

update: the sunrise@Jogja..Subhanallah!

Just a quick one!

If you know me, I'm the most un-organized person, even when I try to be one. :>

So, following advise from Nubby from her post Organization Methods: Tips and Tricks from A Virgo (from ages ago); I'm very determined to be organized for a bit. Ok, maybe not solely from her..I'll take some bits and pieces from my dear hommie/bff advise too (who's a Virgo, too!). Oh, nampaknya memang si Virgo memang seorang yang organized~ hehe and also, my Capricorn bff. :) and of course, internet! Informations' heaven.

As, I want to invite them over, someday. And that someday was too long ago..Hence, I MUST do something. So, this weekend is my HOME time.

DAMN GOOD ADVICE

(for people with talent!) by George Lois. Hehe, seems like a very mad book! Yes, I got the book yesterday because of the promotion. Bought it with Azlina, and with the promo of 50% for second book and also another 10% off because of Borders card, we end up got the book for a mere RM20!! A very good bargain!! Yes, I'm mad now..haha.

Speaking about mad, I came to know about a series, Mad Men, just going to it's 5th season in US yesterday because of Joanna's post on the Mad Men Love. The clips of Don Draper saying "What" was just freaking hilarious and awesome at the same time. Hehe. Well, could be in my list to watch, dapper! Hopeful for a not busy year. Yeay, right! Oh, let's see the face of Don Draper, and the video shall we?

Ok, back to the book..DAMN GOOD ADVICE~ I just read a few pages, and it seems interesting. I hope I could finish it up quick and grab the very DAMN GOOD ADVICE :) George Lois seems a very very mad man..and, the Esquire covers does have an aura in it.

The publisher is Phaidon, and the cover of the book is just like the one by Paul Arden..wow, I love!! Psst, that's the post draft about. Ah, I hope I have the will to post about that. For now, I just enjoy the new book, and maybe, the new found old series.

On another notes, it has been quite a week for me. A few weeks back, has been down..and then up again. A few bad news and more good news. Alhamdulillah :) Now, I'm a happy woman, not so mad. 

Surat untuk awak.

Dear Awak,

"I was born to love you..with every single beats of my heart"-Freddie Mercury

I always believed that..and I hope someday, yes, someday you can see that. Well, I always love you, kot..definitely with every single beats of my heart. :) Since, from that time when I was still young and naive (eh, I still am-lah..young and naive..ok, maybe not so young and not so naive, but I'm still that girl that would sheepishly giggle and "malu sendiri" whenever I see or even talk to you. OK, even fb-chat with you. :D 

Yes, I want to tell you this. Oh, how I wish you're already married so that I can at least moved on. But, being as stubborn as I can be, I would not budge this feeling until you at least married or whatever. But, if you are married to me, of course the feeling would be cemented in my heart forever. *wink* And, if there are never us, that would heartbreaking (totally!); but, I will be strong enough you don't have to worry about me. 

Last four years, at this date..if you remember, I have asked you a question. You must have felt how crazy this girl are. Well, I am at that time. Crazy over you. :p (OK, still am~) Then, I wait and wait..till I dont know what I'm waiting for. I thought I don't have to ask again, I mean, maybe you're married, have someone special and all..That's the line I won't cross. I won't get in between someone's marriage or relationship, not you..not everyone else. 

This year, my heart begs me to ask; but my head's thinking rationally..huhu. Until now, the head oblige me NOT to ask. Maybe, I won't ask at all. And then, blank! I just got back from hours of finding the perfect Fiyero on youtube. Sorry. I was blank, I don't know what to do. Sometimes, I just wonder why don't you just say no. hmm..eh, you did! But, I did not accept the rejection and bounce back. Ah, I'm blank again..great! I mean, you did say no, but in my heart that does not feel right. It is not like NO-NO, when there seems to be something more in this. Am I a fool to think that you even like me? There, I said it. 

Now, I really don't know what to say. I should stop this now.

Have a great leap day!

(owh, i didnt know we cant link videos here, i meant together with the details..haha)

so, here's the lyric to Christina Perri-A thousand years and click here to watch the beautiful lyric video!

Heartbeats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave
How can I love when I’m afraid to fall
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow

One step closer

I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don’t be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more

Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What’s standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this

One step closer

I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don’t be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed that I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I’ll love you for a thousand more

Goodnight, and have a great week ahead, peeps!

Hello, 2012!! *and this time, I mean it!

7. Oh, family trip to Singapore again..USS here we came!!! best~!! but, actually the main reason for the trip is cousin's wedding..hehe
8. Oh, to think of it..actually he does includes me in his life..news of his father's passing. which have made me thinking about life, and a postcard. :)

So, goodnite! Here's to new year, new resolutions, new and old and the only dreams!

gpoyw?

Hola 2011~!

18 February 2011, today is! haha..I've been away too long. Miss it, but do not feel like writing in cyberspace or in my physical journal, either. I missed quite number of pages and also months but I do try to jot things down (mostly in my secret place..haha) Nah, just kidding~

Anyway, this year started off (well) slow~ and fast at the same time. It's been almost Wk 8 in my final semester (I hope!) and I still have not finalized the dissertation title! huhu. I hope today's meeting with the Supervisor bear some fruits. :D I really want to graduate this year, before the turning of BIG 3-0. Argh, just the thoughts of it makes inner me wish for a time machine for a different path of life..ok ok, that just wishful thinking..

Works seems so-so. Nothing much to say.. and it's appraisal time~! So, let's see where I go from here.. *cricket cricket*

I'm still stuck here..and I don't like it. Seems like nothing I could do, but I don't know what else to do. I don't see any light in this never-ending tunnel, I feel like I want to give up..but the question is, why?? Haha..I have now in my plate, a full study-career-wants-needs-envy-self inflicted injury, i might have to forget it just yet. :D I've waited almost my adolescence life..I can wait couple of years more. haha. Even on the 8th, I have totally forgotten about it!

So, today is my supposed lucky day~ oh, I feel it! and I'm gonna start off my 2011's entry with..

WEEKEND TO-DO

Saturday

• Tidy up that lil' back room aka Alvin's toilet
• Stop by at SS2 for Alv's litter
• Diana+Faezal's Wedding
• Finance Proforma Class
• new bedsheets (heart)
• Watch Bones
• Thesis activities
• Zumba's beginner (maybe!)

Sunday

p/s: I hope I manage to do all this. *cross fingers*

mati.

datangnya dalam pelbagai cara, lambat selambat-lambatnya, cepat secepat-cepatnya, senang, susah, mudah, seksa, sakit, payah, muda, tua..ianya pasti berbeza untuk setiap orang.

aku..tak tahu bagaimana aku akan mati kelak. mungkin esok, lusa, tulat..atau entah lah. tak terfikir lagi. tapi memang mati itu benar. sudah tertakluk dalam qada' dan qadar ku. jadi, jika masanya telah tiba..apa yang aku harap, aku gembira dan bahagia dengan hidup yang ditempuh, aku telah bahagiakan mak dan bapak, hutang sudah habis terbayar..dan jika aku ditakdirkan berkeluarga, zuriatku diharap menjadi insan yang berguna di dunia dan akhirat.

satu ingatan pada diri sendiri. :)

another year older~

yet i still feel young..ahaks..happy birthday to me! thank you! there's plenty of plans going on..but none with besties..what to do~? jz deal with it..and let's go for a fun ride!

i just watched nanny diaries, a nice presentation of mary-poppin style with edges. make me ask myself, who is hazera, really? humm..none comes from me head now! haha..maybe being 27 would somehow give me answer or answers, who knows?..:D still searching though..

so, gonna start today with day-out with 2 of my sistas..after that, dwell in my room trying to ignore the 2 boys, do some thinking..or sleep..might need to study a bit, oh..i still got words to think about, and maybe a bit of thinking again~

on sunday, i might or might not go to open houses (depends on situations)..if not, i shall continue snuggle in my bed doing nothing and try to ignore those 2 boys. oh by this time, i'll be alone..which is not so cool, really~ or i can continue to read paulo coelho..or maybe, love shall knock on my door..ahaha..i dont know..or maybe i can get busy vacuuming house, that would keep the 2 boys lost for a while..that's gotta be good..or maybe i can hang them boys in the locker heh..ahahaha...or get them play dress..ahahaha..i dont wanna cook this week..would be only me who gonna eat it..and i tend to cook for more..that's one reason why i keep gaining weight, which i hv to control..wish me luck in that department..:)) or, i can go out..but that would be sucks..as i dont know where i would end up! haha, now..instead of thinking what i would do tomorrow, i want to go to sleep..and enjoy it! maybe love would come knocking in then..who knows, kan?

thank you besties for the wish..you know i luv ya~

OKla~ i think i might make sis feeling crap, but do not want to think or write more on it.

well, lots been going on! and i hate to mention it here..because that would have reminded me that lot of things were taken for granted. haha. like for instance, safety & security. how we fail to take care of ourselves, friends, belongings.. but i dont want to start on that.

i want to tell one funny but strange thing. i dreamt of him, twice..two days in a row. huhu. it was flattering, yes. we didnt do bad things, obviously, it just strange..but i dont know what to think, or what to feel..with my tummy and my body problems..huhuhu..i hate la this weekend~ no..this week! it's tire me, mentally and physically..:(

29.02.2008

closure.

i do not believe it, i guess. but at least, i do not deny it.

NO, is what i get. I'm not going to ask for "nape?". Just let that be.

do not be sad, i said, as there are those sadder than me.

so, is this a closure for me? as far as the ego said yesterday..it is.

oh, i dreamt of someone (rather odd but sweet, t'was) last monday. thank you stranger (kinda) for making my day worth smiling/blushing all day. stress is a four letter word.

hello, sunshine~ (ala2 gaya mr wonka)

heya..it's 2007 already. how time flies. i'm 25+ and getting older each and everyday. huhu. what do i achieved eh? humm..let see. none stands out other than being me. plain impulsive naughty "sedikit malas" hazera :D

haha, anyway..my resolution for 2007 is...nothing. :D for everyday, i am blessed with all these practical resolution, so i just stick to day-to-day resolutions and live the day as it is. my life, my way. but mind me, i still have what they called plans. it's all on my head. say, if i forget one..the plan will find its way back to me. so no worries. hehe.

so, it's already 6/1/2007. what i achieved so far...more to what i did so far. Bekerja bertungkus lumus dari hari rabu ke jumaat dengan selingan-selingan merehat minda. 80% competent and continously effective. :D akhirnya, mendapat hadiah dari minah kekure. thanx alot bebeh. i like, of course. sendiri mintak~ haha

currently, im sorting out all my personal belonging. CDs, mags, collectibles. musics, prints, such an expensive hobbies. bless me. :D eh, lemme story briefly what i did in singapore recently.

thursday nite: all the way to pudu with very heavy feet. terasa malas2 nk gerak. haha..smpat tgk "what women want" believe me, apart from them being handsome (some lah kan) (the contestant i meant) i dont want any of them. :D not what i want.

after that went to jurong point to met mariyam, so we three..eh lupakan nk bgtau. ana, yam and me went to bibik pia's house all the way in ..(eh, lupe plak kat mana. tp yg pastinya, terhangguk2 gwe tertido dlm taxi haha)sampai2 makan. oh ye, my bibik and her husband were going to perform haj at Makkah. konon pegi menghantar la kan. :D yelah, dah my mak and bapak and also my oldest bro family datg sana, mestila mau menyibuk jugak. :D okla everything went well. but so damn tired. huhu.
saturday: my mak and bapak and the whole bunch balik ipoh that morning. me stay sampai bosan. :D gone to vivocity that evening. nice place. all the at south of spore, with view of sentosa island and the cable car. but i did not go there. maybe next time. :D
