The sweet-goodbye post.

I woke up this morning, feeling horrible. Not because I was having one of those awful bad hair days (thank GOD i'm wearing hijab) or my boyfriend slept in the middle of IM-ing me last night (okay, the latter was true but I did that to him almost every day, so I have no right to be mad. Heh). Ayah went back to Jeddah yesterday. He will not make it for my graduation but I'm okay with that because we went for my graduation photo-shoot last week, so metaphorically, I've graduated. Heehee. I hope he will be back for raya Qurban though, or else the four of us will be celebrating raya alone as Mama will be doing her Hajj this year. Hmmm. Things will be quite difficult without him, but we'll be fine, Insyaallah.

Here's some 'melodramatic' pictures me and my sister took when we were in KLIA.

Bully victim T.T

Ayah kacakkk

Uhuk :.(

L-R: Dato' Siti, Frankenstein, Mama cantikk

Arghh. I hate saying goodbyes, especially in the airport. Believe me, I should be an expert in saying goodbyes by now. Tapi tak tahulah kenapa tak expert2 sampai sekarang. :(

So, in order to put my mind at ease, I baked.

Tak main la bake senang-senang. Bake recipe susah-susah la, baru thrill. :P Actually, tak susah pun. Nama resipi yang macam nak kena pergi France beli ingredients, tapi senang je. ;)

Vanilla & Chocolate Coconut Macaroons. Heeeee.

I'll probably post the recipe later, depending on your request. If you want the recipe please don't hesitate to leave a comment. But this macaroons are strictly for coconut lovers. For those who are hypersensitive or doesn't like the coconuty-taste and texture, you should try other macaroons recipe, prolly the almond based macaroons.

Till then, XOXO.

p/s: I miss you Ayah. Uhukkk :(

Hijabi Lovee

I was browsing through youtube the other day, searching for hijab tutorials (bosan kot pakai style sama je T.T) and 'accidentally' came across these videos. That girl in the video is Hana Tajima, a Japanese-English designer, who is also a Muslim! Oh, I just love her style! Please, check her blog out at stylecovered.com. She even has her own clothing range, specially designed for hijabi women {maysaa.com}.

Just for you!

Happy Wisuda (Graduation) Apis!

Even though you acted like it's not a big deal, but I know you really wanted to go and receive your scroll, but it's okay, there will always be next time! (tak aci korang grad dua kali...:P)


(Ok tau buruk sila gelak sekarang...)

I'm not that expert in superimposing, but at least I tried! Heeee. :P

I'm proud of you, really.

Kadang²

Kadang², we tend to make silly mistakes.
Kadang², we hear, but we don't listen.
Kadang², when you want something so bad, you didn't realize the consequences that might arise.
Kadang², crying is the best medicine to mend a broken heart.

Sometimes, gerak hati tu tak semestinya benar.
Sometimes, diam adalah pintar.
Sometimes, fantasi disalah-anggap sebagai realiti.
Sometimes, pendapat tak semestinya mempengaruhi keputusan.

The next phase : Denial.

"What if..." haunts.

...what if things turned out differently?

Acceptance.
Is.
Hard.

But I believe everything happens for a reason.

Journey Part I

Journey to the Holy Land - Makkah & Madinah

I've been to many places.
Seen so many faces.
But in this journey, everything was different.


At first, I was anxious, afraid and overwhelmed with disbelief.
Will I ever be accepted to enter HIS house?
Or even step to HIS holy land?
Am I worthy to be HIS guest?


But Allah is Merciful.
The door is always open for to seek HIS forgiveness.

"O My servants who have transgressed against themselves [by sinning], do not despair of the mercy of Allah . Indeed, Allah forgives all sins. Indeed, it is He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful."

[Surah Az-Zumar (The Troops) 39:53]

My sister once said, once you've been here, everything else is miscellaneous.

It was truly a blessing and I wouldn't change it for the world.
