The Christmas Story 2



Christmas-sy flowers were dusted and displayed last nite..The arrangement is agak kurus kan. 'M envisioning a huge arrangement. On the lookout for red flowers now. Christmas tree is out from its long slumber...'m still thinking what baubles to put up this year?

Till the next post.

A Polka Dot Christmas



Is this going to be a polka dot Christmas? It would be a dream fulfilled to be able to get hold of other polka dots present papers - red and white, deep green and white.



The least fun task - being made okay by flowery plates and cups. Candies to the eyes.

The Christmas Story

1st task was to take out all christmas-sy plates and decor. I tot I had enough..but there is still
so much space in the cupboard. My fav. christmas plates so far are above. It was a bargain for RM2.00 per piece. Menyesal I tidak buy lebih dari 3 biji! Next is to put fairy lights... to make them twinkle.



Till next post. Have an early Merry Christmas all.
(Lain Topic: Bikin malas Astro channel 702 sekarang ni. Almost evry week ada ulangan tayangan gambar drama based on books by Nora Roberts. AStaga punya bida tu cerita-cerita. Siapa bah juga si Nora Roberts ni. Sure murah drama dia kali kan, thts why astro beli. Mcm tidak berbaloi sudah ber astro oh)

Flowers..what not to love about them..eh. Below are lotus buds. Lawa kan. First time I saw lotus hidup.



That would be all for the trip di negar di serang todak.

Take care all.

25-27.10.2010 (Part 2)


Sambungan kpd short trip. Stayed at the new Marina Bay Sands. Ok ok juga the hotel. Ngam la kalau penjudi. Coz dibawahnya casino ja. Agak boring la juga. NOT a walking distance from the central shopping area. But the infinity pool memang best lah. Tapi astaga the water is COLD, ditambah lagi dengan angin yg bertiup sangat kuat. Tips: quickly get in the water and start moving around to warm oneself. Baru berabis ambil gambar. The pool is liocated at the roof top. 1st pic is a model of the hotel. Yg mcm kapal layar tu la the pool and restaurants. Inda jua terlampau impressive lah. The 3 towers yg menjadi tiang kepada kapal are rooms. Yg bawah-bawah the casinos.


Ada juga I swam in the infinity pool setakat utk memuaskan hati. Inda pun sampai 10 min. Tidak cukup time. Mana lebih penting - berenang ka window shopping? WINDOW SHOPPING la bah kan!





Somerset 313, that housed Forever 21 and several other independent kedai. The food court ada bejualan nasi padang yg nyaman. 2 hari berturut-turut I ulangan makan nasi padang sini. Dengan lauk yg sama pula tu. Inda cukup makan sana, ditapau lagi! Syok kan tapauan nya. Inda da plastik.

Christmas Prelude 1

Christmas presents wrapping session had officially kicks off! Found polka dots wrappers at kedai K. I wanted to find red and white and green polka dots, but to no avail. Still on the look out for "christmas-sy" wrappers. The transparent bag is full of unwrapped gifts. I m now on the hunt for ribbons and trinkets to beutify the otherwise plain boxes.
Till next post....

25-27.10.2010

October was wrapped up by a very short visit to a neghbouring country. Shopaholic mood in full gear. Hasil-hasil:
1. 1st pic. Earring and Bracelet, from Forever 21. Just love the store. Quirky and the price "berbolai".. (note: a minimum of 2 hrs required to browse thru 4 floors of this shop. Do make ample time in itinerary.) Likes the earring shape but a bit berat. There is a slight possibility the weight of the earring will elongate one's ear!


2. I alrdy pok-pok these shoes in KL since..forever. The price tag in KL was RM490 (mcm..tidak lah kan.Too expensive). Astaga, found these 1 last pair for MY size for SING89.90! berbaloi ka tidak!!!! So yes!



3. RL shirt - black and off white (susunan pics. tidak ngam.)

4. Latest book in the Shopaholic series. Not as funny as previous books. I think Sophie Kinsella had sort off loose steam in terms of "funny- ness". It is still funny but not the "roll- on-you back" funny. Mahal pula tu. They haven't got the cheaper version out.




That was all for October 2010. An eventful month indeed!

Noel

Had been listening to Josh Groban's christmas cd Noel for the past 1 week. Bersemangat mau we wish u a merry christmas ni. Ngam kan dragon fruit dan pomegranate dgn buku krismas di bawah tu. Mahal juga the pomegranate o RM6 sebiji. I hope it tastes nice.
A very early merry christmas to all!
p/s 1st pic bikin kasi lawa post.no connection with dragon fruit or pomegranate


Salju di Bukit Vor

It had been ages since the last update kan. I wish to be able to sum up the happenings of 2 months into few sentences. It was a roller coaster journey. Satu-satu lah i put ah. To jump start the process i ll start with a "wintry" pic of the BV swmng pool. I am so in Christmas mood now. I guess ini rain effect lebih kurang snow effect juga lah kan.
I wish we have snow here (tapi karang kalau betul betul ada snow..bikin takut pula kan..kiamat..).
Till next christmasy post...
Take care.

Amazing!

July's highlight was the Ba Kelalan trip(15-18 July 2010)..It was just amazing. 13 hours rugged, muddy and curam road. Dinner in the middle of the muddy and cold Ba Kelalan jungle. The experience was priceless...
Meeting new acquaintances.
Challenging one's fitness (so not!)...
Unspoilt beauty...
A spiritual re-awakening...
A realisation of how precious we are in His sight, and what have we done to deserve His goodness...

Cinta



I cinta kutin lawa lawa. And mati lah di kedai K di Putatan (dan beberapa cawangannya.., tapi yg di Putatan yg banyak choice - tak mau free marketing kpd kedai unless dia kasi i voucher free!) makin banyak kutin-kutin lawa. Nasib harga the tin tidak sampai harga 1 ekor sapi. Paling mahal pun RM12.90. Berbolai (si hadji bilang!). I've added 4 more kutin to my collections. Apalah I mau isi dlm kutin tersebut kan. ...
1st pic - inda berapa lawa gambarnya kan, very 70's. But I like the rectangular shape. Susah sket mau cari kutin 4 segi. Yg slalu ada bulat. Patutka I spray and decoupage kutin tersebut? Wht do u think? I would love to hear your comments.


Yg ni the biggest kutin I ada to date. I suka betul the roses. Cantik kan....



Yg atas ni, ok la. Cute. Cupcakes...what not to like kan..


Paling I suka this polka dot kutin. Matching dgn beg luggage i. Next post I'll post on the "polka dot family" collection k.




Ok, sekian ja cerita kutin i setakat ni.

Take care all.

Jodoh


I had been eyeing these cake stands piece since 2008. Everytime I ke kedai putatan, pasti i akan pi cubuk ni barang. And i always had some hesitation of buying it. But, it never went completely out of my mind. When finally, finally, finally after 2 long years, it finally is mine! Ngam lah org tua bilang, "kalau jodoh memang tak ke mana". Itu lah tu kan. After 2 tahun, ini barang masih belum kena beli! Tak payah dipaksa kalau jodoh, mcm mana mau mengelak, itu lah tu kan! Selepas bertahun I pok-pok ni ringkatan kek. Berbaloi pula harga dia tu. 3 sizes, boleh taruh bapa kek, mama kek dan anak kek. I'm so in love of this piece now. It goes so perfectly with my other blue n white collections. It adds a whimsical touch to the rest of the collections.




Kita wait for an ocassion for it to be used. In the mean time, take care all.

May pretties


High time I posted some pretties, don't u think so?

They are only 6 (including this one) posts to date for 2010. Things had been pretty hectic, but that is not a very good excuse to neglect tis whimsical blog of mine eh.

Weekend was filled with too many to do lists for spring cleaning. First task is "berkarya", giving a tired dresser a "springy flowery look". Not too tidy tho but shd be ok for now. Need to tidy up a bit more. Will post the completed pic.
Take care all.

Bario

What a privilege to be able to visit Bario in Sarawak. By plane via Miri. A 50 minutes flight on a 18 (or 19 or 16, lupa ku) seater, tiny air plane. Doa lah banyak-banyak sebelum masuk dlm kapal damit.

Excellent hospitality by the Kelabits. A blessed land. A trip that was good for the soul. Too many pictures taken,too few words that are able to describe the land.

Among my fav is the local limau. Juicy and crispy (ada ka limau mcm tu?). Gemuk lagi the limau dari hp i kan.
A maiden visit to a Kelabit longhouse. A priceless experience. We were greeted by an array of food. Fit for a foodie king/queen.

Bario on a rainy day.

Bario is indeed a blessed land. The favor of God is upon this land.

Till later. Take care.
