Assalammu'alaikum,
Apologies for the few days break. Life as a wife has been refreshing. I am thankful to have met my better half, who always hold my hand and guide me rightfully.
Life as a wife has been good to me so far. Oh yes, the wedding... Alhamdulillah.. Both events went well and smoothly.
I am thankful to have engaged an awesome wedding planner who handled everything, from food caterer, deco, right down to the outfits & everything else.
Zulyn Syurga Cinta provides all wedding services & needs under one roof. Awesome is under-rated. As a wedding planner, she was right from the start and I never had regrets since. She took care of everything, and I truly just have to keep breathing and smile away.
My wedding planner not only caters all wedding services & needs, she also pay a lot of attention to individual bride/groom's desires & budget. She constantly reminded me of my budget and gave me a nudge whenever I got near to bursting my initial budget. She made sure I was okay when I wanted to increase my budget.
She gave a lot of opinions, suggestions ad alternatives. All I need to remember are dates of appointments. I would definitely highly recommend her to all future brides & grooms. She went for a holiday right after settling my event, a holiday she deserved after the long sleepless week handling my event. Oh did I mention how she took good care of even my parents? Yes, she went the extra mile and took care of my parents and reminded my parents to rest on Sat night.
We got busy returning all rental equipments that Monday. And we made many trips back to his place, then we went to JB to send my granny back home. We had a lot of well-wishes, and for that, we are very thankful.
Today, we attended a few weddings, and I recalled how anxious I was waiting for his arrival. And the pride I felt when he introduced me as his wife, is so huge.. I grinned and smile, very proud and happy to be his rightful wife.
May our marriage always be blessed with wellness, happiness and lots of love. Insya Allah...
With much love,
A happy Wife.

Last Friday as a single lady...
Assalammu'alaikum,
So, we had our henna party done and over with. This morning I got up, feeling more nervous than previous.
And we are now just left with today before it will be down to just hours. Bismillah hirohman nirrohim.
May everything goes as smooth as silk. InsyaAllah, with the blessings from both parents, families and friends, I am all smiles to welcome tomorrow.
With much love,

Life is so fragile...
Assalammu'alaikum family, friends & bloggers,
Today, I realised how fragile life can be. Hope was given, but Allah SWT has a better plan.
Mak Long M has passed this morning. She was the one who had put the ring on my finger officializing my engagement. We didnt get to talk much, but when we do, I enjoyed it and often left feeling good.
She has that touch that makes people feel welcomed. I felt the loss just as much, and I hope her family will be strong and continue to read Al-Fatehah for her.
Mak Long M, you will always be remembered and close to our hearts. May she be amongst the good, insyaAllah.
13/12/12, a date I will remember....
8days18hours left to strike. Praying for a peaceful and blessed journey..
With much love,
Yours Truly

12.12.12 is finally over!
Assalammu'alaikum!
Whose Timeline in FB wasnt flooded with the commotion about the "last" repetitive dates? Well, a grandfather lived through twice, and he is a century old. Repetitive dates occur every century. And not that many live up to 100 these days, do they?
And whilst people celebrate the 12/12/12 12:12:12, I cant help but wonder how his Mak Long M is doing. I hope everyone is strong to pull everything together in union. I hope she can recover soon, if Allah SWT wills it. In meantime, I can only pray for all to go well, in accordance to what is best for all of us.
And while I lie down on my bed, looking at the calender, I realized it is now left with just 9.5days..
So, time not only flies when we are having fun, it also flies when we are freaking out. ;) and of course, freaking out in the most wonderful way!

I put that aside, and continue counting down. 14 more days to strike off..

He popped the question!
Assalammu'alaikum!
I had a day full of ups and downs today. But I shall keep it short (if that is ever possible!) with just one highlights for each max (if any) on any given day that I chose.
Work has been great except for Engineer B's classic antics, which I shall not talk about. My other Engineer will be going on maternity leave by end of next week, and we are both so worried.. All we can do is pray and hope for everything to go smoothly without much trouble.
I ended pretty late today as I opted to learn on how I can fully utilise her model to my advantage. I am looking forward to be given a better opportunity out there, but I would like it more if my boss can see my potential and polish it well.
After such a long day, I dropped by the Post Office to drop off some invitation cards, and as I made my way home, he called.
We chatted and spoke about the young rider who passed on. I dunno how anyone can be so disrespectful by posting and publishing his gruesome accident photos. Didnt it ever cross their mind about how they would feel had it been their closed ones? We were outraged, and then we couldnt thank Allah SWT enough for keeping me safe when I met an accident some 5 months ago. I could have been in his shoes had there been a speeding vehicle behind me as I slide across some 2m down the road.
Then, he popped the question. He simply asked, "Are you ready, dear?" And I instantly had blushers brushed against my cheeks. I couldnt muster an answer. I had a mix of feelings. Anxiety. In one hand I am sure about loving him and being with him all my life. In the other hand, i knew being a wife, being married, has a long long string of responsibilities that requires a lot of compromises and sacrifices.
And I answered, "Wont be ready enough until you undertake the oath to be my lawful husband in the eyes of our Creator and on paper legally."
I couldnt help but smile endlessly.
16.5 more days honey... And I will be your makmum, and you will be my Imam.

The bells are ringing!!
Assalammualaikum family & friends. I hope all has been well so far for all of you.
It was a season of cute lil babies & toddlers. I went for my cousin's baby shower. His son took after his wife, for sure. Cute tiny eyes and puffy cheeks! Cuteness! I visited again last weekend to hand my cards, and oh boy, he grew so much! Didnt carry him as I had my hands full, but I do pray so he'd grow up to be a man of his words, be intelligent, wise & insyaAllah, be soleh & filial to his parents & caretakers.
And yes, finally, I have started making my rounds with my parents handing the cards personally to most of our close relatives. InsyaAllah, with the prayers of all my well-wishers, everything will go smooth and nice.
May all bad intentions be erased and replaced with good ones. And may all hatred be erased and replaced with empathy and sincerity.
I hope and pray that all will continue to be at peace and well so the world will continue to be a better place for all pf us.
Lots of love,

Such a long break since...
Assalammu'alaikum everyone! Hope all is well and smooth sailing so far! Time truly flies eh? It's already October, masyaAllah!
I have finally completed my order that has been on hold since the accident, and am now filled for another round of big project, alhamdulillah. I am so grateful for opportunities as such. InsyaAllah, one of my finest dream may come true.
I have less than 75days to complete this projects in hand. Hopefully rest enough before more such great big projects come lining up again. I am looking forward! InsyAllah, if Allah permits, and if its meant for me and is good for me, I'll definitely continue to work hard and equally smart for it to happen.
Busy months ahead! May everyone go great heights and always be a better person tomorrow. Amin.
With love,
Me.

Syawal 1433H
Eid Mubarak everyone!!
I didnt have any mood to celebrate this year really... And all I hope for this year is for that someone to hold true to her words... To care for her, take good care of her... She's yours to keep!
Our Syawal went as planned. Smooth, short and sweet. Alhamdulillah.
Tomorrow we shall just visit two more houses then it's all done- for here at least.
Back at home.. Everytime, we have our quiet moments, we tend to look at each other in disbelief only to sigh and convince each other to just let go and detach. Totally easier said than done!
I had two great news last Friday, and more good things are coming.. This loss, is not ours. One day, the truth will reveal. Untill then, we shall remain strong and pull our faith together to see through these challenging tests, insyaAllah.
May Allah SWT grant us mercy and leave us enough strength to see through these obstacles that are meant to be ours, and to purify our hearts from revenge and hatred. Amin~

New place, new neighbours
Assalammua'laikum all! I hope Ramadhan has been going great so far for all of you!
I just thought of sharing my first hand experience having a great neighbour of the same race and religion. Alhamdulillah, we managed to establish a mutual and pleasant relationship & friendship. I love their youngest member. He entertains us and always makes us smile with his innocent honesty.
Just like today when I came back from a job interview at ard 4ish in the afternoon. He joined me in the lift smiling so widely, naturally, I smiled back at him - happy to see him. Then he blurted out, "Adik tak puasa harini.." in translation, "lil brother didnt fast today". He call himself lil brother considering he's the youngest. And i smiled and asked why.. He innocently defended that he had basketball training and was so drained and drank water. I rubbed his hair and said it's okay, and added that he had to try withstand it next time. I sometimes feel so tempted to pinch his cheeks.. He's just such a charm!
We never had any neighbours of the same race/religion before, all these while we only had the majority as neighbours. So this is basically really new to us, our neighbour gave us a plate of their dish, not knowing what to do, we grabbed what we had on our dining table and pull it quickly to exchange. We really dunno what to do.. We never had this before, and we aren't sure if what we did was right or that we should have given the exchange later when we return their plate. Now i dunno if i should wash the plate and return it empty or if i should return it tomorrow with another dish..
Seriously, have you got any idea? It sounds funny that I am asking advice here.. Some, i am sure would have said, "Common sense, babe!" but really, i dunno... Help me, will you? :)
That's all for today, I'm off to meet my BFF, Ms B now! Adios!
Love,
Jun :)

History repeats in slow motion
Assalammu'alaikum readers of this blog...
I dunno where to begin, but I hope everyone's happy with how things are at the moment.
It's sad to know that there really are serious good people who truly love what they do. I am just sooo tired and drained... They just don't stop, do they?
I guess I really just have one word for them.. I just wanna say, "Thanks!". Really.. It has been a great pleasure. Nothing could ever beat these. Such perfect timing. I couldnt possibly ask for more...
Alhamdulillah, although not all... Some have opened their eyes and hearts to put together the little pictures and see the real bigger picture of what has happened, what is happening, and probably predict and prepare for what's next.
Inna lilla wainna lillahirojiun... I can only wait and see to it... MasyaAllah, I just couldnt say in words... Only He knows...
InsyaAllah, with great faith.. He who knows, will grant me what I need to see through these.
Once again, thank you fellow readers. Also thank you to all evil eye caster. You are appreciated. May you always get what you deserve..
With love,
Me.

We have shifted!
Salam everyone! Sorry for the long break... We have fully shifted on 23rd June 2012 and have since found ourselves busy unpacking- in fact we still are as we speak.. :)
A lot has happened since.. One right after the other.. All within His desire... I broke my first bone just last Thursday. Alhamdulillah, I was given another chance to be a better Muslimah. :)
Tomorrow is my follow-up at the hospital.. We shall see what comes next. :)

Renovation is almost complete!
We had all our toilet accessories fixed, all our lightings and fans fixed. Actually almost everything is supposed to be completed yesterday, but the wrong sliding door for the common toilet came. So we had to have that replaced- hopefully it is fixed today.
We managed to complete the painting of the master bedroom and the corridor to our rooms. So we will tentatively complete the painting for the whole house by Sunday.
For now, we are just left with shopping for our dining table, living room mirror(s) and my chest of drawers. Oh, and our refridgerator, oh and some shelfs! After that we would be all focused in packing and shifting our boxes, bit by bit, then the big move will tentatively be in the third week of June or so. Hopefully we dun need to experience anymore hiccups along the way.
More to come soon! Here's a picture of the newly painted master room. We love the blue here!

More renovation updates
Salam everyone! May all be smooth sailing and brings about a smile on everyone's face.
Our kitchen cabinets are completed, including our sink and stove. My built-in wardrobe is GORGEOUS! The tiles on our baywindow is completed. We had our heater installed. Alhamdulillah, all has been to our liking.
We met our contractor to tell him where we would like our toilet accessories to be at, and any necessary wiring that need redirecting. We got ourselves free door magnet (to keep door open) and door bell to e installed. Our lightings & fans will be coming on Tuesday, and it will all be fixed on Wednesday. Alhamdulillah~
Another quick visit on Thursday, to test the lightings and its switches.. I can barely wait till then. I am truly excited now that we have already half-packed with the new house almost completed.
We will be doing one last round of shopping for our dining table, chest of drawers and one mirror this weekend.
Until then, I will be signing off for a much needed rest for Monday to greet me in the face. :) May the week ahead be great for all of us, insyaAllah!

Another quick visit on Thursday, to test the lightings and its switches.. I can barely wait till then. I am truly excited now that we have already half-packed with the new house almost completed.
We will be doing one last round of shopping for our dining table, chest of drawers and one mirror this weekend.
Until then, I will be signing off for a much needed rest for Monday to greet me in the face. :) May the week ahead be great for all of us, insyaAllah!

Renovation update
Salam everyone! Hope all is well with everyone...
It was rather quick for us to get our keys on Thursday and signed our agreement with our contractor on Saturday. We went shopping for all accessories on Sunday.. And just two days ago, I sneaked peak in it with my BFF.. Guess what?
Oh yes! They have started!! Our toilet partition is already out, and the windows at our service yard was fixed. I think the next in list is our kitchen as there's a whole load of sand in it.
We will sneak peak again this Sunday to see its progress and for the curtain uncle to come by and do on-site measurements.
Am definitely looking forward! I guess our new place would be ready in time for Eid~ insyaAllah..
Oh, and I was invited for an engagement in 3weeks' time. Thanks for the invite! Sis & I will be a bit late as we will both be coming from work. ;) all the best in your prep, and may all be joyous and go smoothly as desired.
Amin.

Labour day short getaway!
Salam friends & family! Hope you had enjoyed your Labour Day holiday like I did..
I left home at 1050hrs, we headed down to Bukit Indah and met up with his friend and family. After much anticipation, we headed down to AEON and grab our lunch at SUBWAY! Yes! After much patience in waiting, i finally get my Subway Melts! Alhamdulillah, it tastes so great! Then we headed down to Naza Kia @ New York as his friend wanted to get his Kia Forte 2.0... Awesome! I personally fell in love with the 7seater SUV. It is perfect as my dream car.. It's spacious, and Mr Biker seemed pleased. We will continue to dream and hope for it to come true someday.
We then headed down to Enau to visit my second cousin and her baby. Sadly, I forgot to bring along the beanie and booty set that I've made for him.. Oh wells, another day another time...
After all those driving in the heavy rain, it was due time for all of us to be hungry all over again. We decided to grab what comes in mind. First choice was Ayam Penyet, sadly the place was short-handed and we had to go for the next option in line...
We headed down to this place, and we bought a set for 6-8people. There were 7 of us. And guess what? We cleaned up every plate, every grain and every drop of gravy. ;) Yes! We were just that hungry! We were full and 2100hrs felt like 0000hrs...
We headed back to Bukit Indah to recharge, and have a proper chat. I was a little offended by some statements made, but I left it at just that. I had horrible flash backs, and how I calmly overcome it. It has without a doubt, reminded me how I have hated men at one point of time... And how in an instant I met THE ONE, and felt without any physical assurance, evidence or proof, that he is different and my heart naturally soften and opened up to be a better woman... Alhamdulillah, it was then, I knew, he is just the one that He has probably made for me... He answered my prayers... Mr Fiance is really like a reflection of my father... And hopefully his love for me too is like my father's.
We chatted and chatted, and what we felt was just a short while ended in 2hours! And yes... It is already a quarter past midnight... We made a move just like how Manja sprinted out for her dose of organic medication.
We stopped by at Esso for petrol and finally head back home. And for the first time after so super long, I have been out for more than 12hrs, and reached my bed at 0113hrs!
I woke up at 0620hrs.. Just 5hrs after i landed my head on my pillow... I still made it to my office about 2mins early. And silently wished I was still in bed gazing the ceiling in pure blurness over what I had done the night before...
And something went missing... I dunno where it went... I swear I had it in my wallet... But when I suddenly felt like checking, it just wasnt there anymore!! Damn!!! $$ is potentially flying!
Anyways... I had fun and that is important... Have a great Wednesday, everyone!

Good Stresses
Salam everyone! I hope all is well on your side...
I am having one of those good stresses days... I can almost pull my hair just thinking of my schedule that has been pre-planned since 2011 for this big year of events... My first peak will probably hit me in June.. Which is just almost next month!
Sometimes, I can't even decide whether to be dragging the time to come or to be excited and looking forward to it- and of course, in the happy version! My heart pumps real hard at the mention of it these days. I take deep breaths to be ready for it... I smile widely with a sparkle in my eye thinking about it... Oh yes oh yes! I am truly looking forward!
Shall sleep now... And perhaps dream a happy dream~
Good night lovelies.

Mid Week Update
Assalammualaikum friends & family!
Hope your day has been great so far, its mid week, just over the hump and we can just see the weekend from here. :)
Life is becoming more and more demanding now. Time is chasing me and I have to be on my heels all the time. There is always something to do these days. I only have 2 weekday evenings and probably just about a quarter-ish weekend. Of the 2 weekday evenings that I have, I would probably spend one of it with Mr Handyman,well at least once or twice in a month or so. And the quarter-ish weekend is usually for family occassions- mostly weddings. The one weekday evening that I have left now will be spent doing my laundry duties.
When Mr Handyman demands another day, I sometimes screams for my own mercy. I know I need a break, and I know I want to desperately just lie back and not to anything but rest... No matter how I try to put some things to later, I just cant afford to! It is not that I can't, but that will result to overloaded work for me sooner or later, and that had made me rather too particular about schedule. Everything has to be timely now.. I cant stand lateness, I cant stand it when someone delays something.
Oh wells, that aside. I had a fantastic weekend and had a great fun educational session today. Some simple messages made me smile, some slight improvements made me happy. :) I know, this particular paragraph is vague. It is on purpose! :) I simply love love love my life now. Everything seems to work out, and I am motivated much to strive for the excellence that I have been eyeing since forever! Wish me luck friends. I dun really need much, I just need a lil prayer wishing me well. InsyaAllah, He will guide me and lead me the way.

Googling....
Salam friends,
A Pinoy friend asked me about KL this morning, and asked me to recommend a hotel or two for her short weekend getaway. Through my life, I had went to KL about 5 times, I stayed at a service apartment twice staying from Friday through to Monday, and the other three times was for a seminar, and the hotel was more or less chosen for us. This led me without much clue as to what to recommend to her, and so I go about googling for a Malaysian travel website.
I found a website featuring KL budget hotels. That seems to fit the bill! I browsed through the website for awhile before finally passing her the link as top of list. I chose this as top of the list as it has various options and it was rather easy and straight-forward walking through the website. It has various search options. You can search for the available rooms for rentals by the type, ie Bed- Dorm Room, Room –Budget Hotel, Room – Resort Hotel and such; they even had the whole house as an option! You can also choose to search by location. The room prices seemed to be of a great deal and the location was also found to be great and near amenities like LRT.
Without much delay, I start browsing and scanning through the guest reviews. It was all great- needless to say. One review caught me, the Homestay @ Plaza 393. That sounds interesting, and I have a strong feeling that I would personally try that out one day with my family. To go ahead with the booking, you have to register with your email, and create a username and password, and you can book yours right after that. Easy isn’t it? Go ahead, click the link and try it out. Let me know what you think..
I do hope this will help someone out there, and would make some use from it. :)

The trip to JCS Digital Solutions
Salam Everyone,
I have finally registered my online business with Acra, and I was charged for late registration. Oh my.. But it was worth it. I then made a trip down to JCS Digital Solutions at AMK.
The trip was to discuss on my branding. I wanted to stitch up a ribbon with my registered business entity on it. It was nerve wrecking as it was the first time I am making an appearance as a business owner, but all that was erased when I was greeted by a humble senior sale manager, Mr Alvin Tan. He brisk me around the company brochure, and brought out the in-house ribbons, and allow me to visualize the idea. We side track a little with some wedding albums, considering my wedding is just 263 days away now. I left JCS with a wide smile, and is looking forward to an official quotation on the price per yard print.
I went about with my other business activities, and alhamdulillah, the demand was high enough to reap profits and smiles on my customers' face. It was a great wet Saturday.
I was in such a mood that I set my foot into cooking a meal on Sunday morning. After much hesitation and doubt, I finally gathered enough courage to try the recipe an old friend handed down to me. I knew it was a success when my father took another serving.
So that's my weekend. Simple, yet it gives me that much of satisfaction. And oh.. We were browsing some flats.. and oh my the price of the flat that I wanted was more than half a million! Goodness me! We were shocked, but we smiled anyway because we are certain now that our initial plan was meant to be for us.
We are moving to the same direction, me and him, hand in hand.. InsyaAllah.
With much love,
Jun Yusof

Delayed update
Salam family, friends and blog followers,
I hope everything has been great since I last posted. Time truly flies eh? I mean it's been two family events, one in a chalet, and another in a bungalow.. we had great fun. And I think the best is the surprised expressions from both my nieces when we bring out the cake and sang the birthday song to them. The expressions, the shrieking, the excitedness in their faces are priceless, and I am so loving them. We are so going to have more next year when all three of you are done with the major exams, insyaAllah. May Allah bless you and grant you calmness and determination to do well in your major exams darling nieces Ros, Nad and nephew Abg. I will always be praying for your well-being sweethearts.
Oh my oh my! I am so guilty of not updating much! Apologies~ So here is my explanation why...
I have been so busy and drowned with my home business, masyaAllah, all thanks to the tremendous support from family, friends and loyal customers who kept coming back for more, and special thanks to those who supplied me endless ideas. Love all of you so much! Karma? Did I hear Karma? Yeah, it probably is.. Patience and silence paid off. Alhamdulillah, All praises to Allah the Almighty. Syukur, you see my friends, when you truly believe the truth, speaks the truth and acts the truth, the truth will reveal itself, insyaAllah. Maybe not immediately, but definitely, when time is deemed right by Him. MasyaAllah... I am so indebt and grateful for the love He has showered on to me. Most of my prayers has been answered, alhamdulillah.
We had also received the letter in regards to the receipt of our new house keys. And we are definitely very excited about it. I think my fiance is the most excited one, planning the house painting, the tv console installation in our future room, and the list keep going. How can I not be grateful and blessed when I have him around? He may not be the best, or the perfect one in your eyes... Know what? I don't really care about what you have said, want to say, or have been saying about my choice. Know why? We are happy with him as my choice, there are no objections from my parents, my grandmother(s) and my relatives who truly matters, so you can sleep with your opinions, I ain't buying them.
On top of me being busy with my house packing, and my home business's first few baby steps, I am also drowning into the busy preparation to my big day. 312 more days to go to be exact. Alhamdulillah, the main items has been settled for. InsyaAllah, a successful venue visit next month before we go into the fine details. I don't know if it's just me, but I am looking forward to life after marriage more than feeling excited for my big day to come.
You see, I am really busy, so busy that I havent had time to call for my much needed rest, everytime I want to rest, a new idea resides in my head. I am currently working on my very first big project for someone outside my family and friend circle, I am doing this professionally for professional usage. Alhamdulillah!
On top of working on this big project, I am also excitingly working on a grand project for myself, and once it's used, it will be open for launching, ready to take up orders for professionals who desire to have a more personalized item. Ah, life is really great! Of course, nothing comes free, I had traded my time and energy into this, and will continue to do so, because I don't stop at becoming good. I strive for excellence in my work.
Oh, once again, thank you for the great time!
