Project: 78ish.Com


Sorry for the long no updates. I'm currently busy trying to keep myself in pace between works, and projects (with a friend) lately. It feels so nice to be able to collaborate with my friend again, and we're doing a project to help those who have online business to expose their products, as well as for customers to be able to find the things that they are looking for.

Tips: Pick the Mascara for You

Mascara

When it comes to mascara, we all speak by different techniques. What’s important is that when you put the mascara on, it works its magic and makes you feel fabulous. In a nutshell, I love mascara because it is the only thing that would give me those flirty looking eyes by framing them with long full lashes. Plus, mascara is a must have make-up that would make my eyes bigger... like Sailormoon! LOL!

Let Me Get My Girly Shit: All About Facial Mask

340*365 Grateful-5 Years

Do you use facial masks as part of your skincare routine? I love facial masks, and I personally believe that it is the easiest way to pamper your skin without having to spend a lot of money on skincare products. Apart from it, facial masks never fail to give your skin with a big boost without fuss! Whether it is a cream, peel-off, or sheet based facial mask, I always find that facial mask is a great way to de-stress myself as well as enjoying other benefits from this one easy application. I usually put on my facial mask before bedtime since I'm not keen at applying night cream on my face as it would only leave my skin oily in the next morning. These are some of the facial masks which I would recommend you (and some of them are on sale right now!).

Rants: Eat, Sleep and Breathe the Internet


When Abraham Maslow published a paper on the hierarchy of basic human needs in 1943, the theory only states four (4) needs that must be met before self-actualization can be achieved, i.e. psychological, safety, belonging, and self-esteem. However, considering with the current trends and technology advancement, Maslow's theory needs to be modified by including WiFi as part of human needs to complete the whole self-actualization.

Community: Help Pitas to Build Road


When there is a scarcity in the infrastructure, it means nearly all the rural population are forced to depend on their own subsistence farming for their own food and monetary income. Investment in development and maintenance road infrastructure would contribute towards trade development because road infrastructure opens up unconnected regions to trade and investment. Not only it would improve access to goods, services and employment opportunities, but also leads to sustainable growth and development of the economy which arises due to the multiplier effects of government spending on infrastructure in the economy.

I Wish I'd Said That!


Sometimes I get frustrated as I look at my Facebook timeline. People complaining, insulting, arguing, and keep on re-posting sensitive issues over the Facebook. I would love to see a positive one - with encouraging, and inspiring ones - Enough to make me think that the day is just another challenging phase of life. Rather than wasting my time on Facebook, I'd rather read blogs written by people who share beautiful pictures, sayings, stories, or even ideas with anyone who's willing to look. I believe that they wanted to keep an archive of everything that is important to them - What they believe in, who they believe in, and basically the things that make them feel alive.

Let Me Get My Girly Shit: Handbag


A woman cannot live without her handbag. It's part of trophy of femininity - We put almost everything inside there (you can say we even have spare tampons or G-string inside there). Like the kangaroo’s pouch, it seems part of all we are. You can be sure that a woman has been kidnapped or murdered if the handbag is left behind and the woman is nowhere to be found. If you ask me what's one thing that I cannot live without, besides chocolate of course, my answer would be "It’s a fabulous handbag!"

Starbucks Moment

I seldom spend some times to enjoy the Frappuccino at Starbucks and when I do, I would love to hang there with my Hubby. We would sit there for hours and chat about anything. Our favourite spot is in front of the counter where we find it's rather siok and comfy. Siok enough to cubuk how the staff are doing their work. Macam mysterious shopper lah bah pula kalau begitu.

Image000091: The crowds… (via Photos from DavelynneDR)

Here's a photo taken during Sabbath day @ Menggatal Seventh-Day Adventist Church on 20 October 2007. It's an old photo but I still love all photos taken using my Canon 400D.

Uncredited

Zone 5 - Menggatal

I found out the same photo with they've cropped off the 'photographer's name' from this photo. It's pretty sad but I assume that they have no knowledge about it. At least I know that they love my photo sampai guna untuk diorang punya sendiri. Hahahahahah!

Tom Yum Gai (Chicken Tomyum Soup)



Hubby was craving for Tom Yum soup, and he told me that he planned to go tapau after he finished with his workout. I told him just to come home straight from the gym as I'm going to make him a Tom Yum soup. Here's the recipe which I modified a bit (sebab tidak banyak raw materials yang ada dalam dapur). You can get the original recipe here.

The Mirror Test



Jeffrey Hayzlett is an accomplished marketer, and a successful businessman. He was a Vice President and CMO of Kodak. He's not a novel in marketing, and I admire his vast experience. A friend from Goodreads recommends me to read this as he found out that I'm more interested in Marketing, and Management subject.

Noel Cruz's Arts

Noel Cruz is a Filipino artist who transforms mass-produced dolls to create stunningly realistic one-of-a-kind figures of celebrities. He is most recognized for his character & celebrity based dolls due to their uncanny resemblance to the people they portray. I'm very impressed with his artworks. Check out for some of his works below.

Cold Thursday

It's still raining outside and hubby still asleep. I wake up and make breakfast for us. I've decided to stay at home today as I've done with the works in the office. Dad has asked me to get ample of rest as I had a few OT last week. While waiting for hubby to get ready, I'm watching this funny Andy Griffith's Play The Game. A very funny movie about the ego between man and woman.

A few slices of Pandan Pudding Cake, and a glass of fresh orange juice for breakfast. It's pretty cold outside, anyway. Hubby has asked me to make Chicken Soup for dinner. It feels so nice to cook for hubby. It makes me happy when he had 2 bowls of rice last evening. I'm going to make Chicken Soup, and Vegetarian Shrimp for dinner later.

Chicken Curry with Potatoes

As for dinner, I make Chicken Curry with Potatoes. Here's the recipe which I got from Dapur Tanpa Sempadan. By the way, bahan-bahan kasi kurang sebab 2 orang saja bah kami ni makan. I also omit and replace some of the ingredients.

Ted Baker's Floral Printed Dress

We were watching E! when suddenly my hubby asked if I would like to go to the Church this Sabbath. I was so glad that he finally raised that 'Sabbath' issue, and remind me to go to the Church. I haven't been to the Church for months, and I'm so happy that he's willing to accompany. Thank you so much, dear. Hubby then asked me if I have a new dress to be worn (as he always see me wearing the same dresses to work).

"Let's get a new dress for you. No more mustard or pink dresses. My eyes can't bear to look at those colors anymore."

Puji-Pujian


I had a conversation with my dear friend a few days ago. So, adalah ni satu cerita pasal pujian ikhlas, pujian 'epidermis', dan pujian 'berduri'. We use 'specific' terms to describe these kinds of pujian... Pujian ikhlas tu memang yang pujian lahir dari hati, memang tidak tipu dan pure macam cinta ikhlas kenen... Pujian 'epidermis' pula yang di kulit-kulit saja, yalah, pujian yang tidak ikhlas dan sekadar untuk kasi jack up supaya tu orang perasantut, or manusia yang memuji ni jenis puji di depan tapi di belakang dia umpat. That's Pujian Epidermis. Untuk Pujian Berduri pula, bagi definisi kami, this one is the most dangerous one. Why? Because pujian ni yang jenis menyindir atau mengejek, and very straightforward. Contoh-contoh kenen...

Situasi
Terserempak sama kawan satu Gereja/Office/Kuliah/Kelas yang makin lawa badan dan muka pun halus.

Pujian Ikhlas
Depan Kawan: "Eeee... Sia tinguk ko sekarang makin lama makin lawa tu body oh, tu muka pun makin halus ni..."
Dalam Hati Sendiri: "Eeee... Lawa oh badan dia sama muka dia... Sia mau oh ada badan macam dia & muka halus macam dia..."
Cakap Sama Kawan Lain: "Si anu punya badan sekarang lawa oh... Muka dia pun halus ni... Sia harap-harap sia ada badan lawa macam dia and muka halus macam dia oh..." OR ni orang diam saja inda kestau sepa-sepa (kalau dia jenis inda suka bergossip)

Pujian Epidermis
Depan Kawan: "Eeee... Sia tinguk ko sekarang makin lama makin lawa tu body oh, tu muka pun makin halus ni..."
Dalam Hati Sendiri: "Jangan perasanlah ko saja bulih dapat body lawa dan muka lawa begitu. Masih juga bah sia lebih lawa dari ko."
Cakap Sama Kawan Lain: "Si anu bah... Perasan konon dia makin lawa! Macamlah sia tidak tau apa dia guna. Dia pigi Botox baitu! Dia talan Slimming Pills lagi ah... Manada orang yang dari berjerawat tu muka, body pula macam babi terus tiba-tiba jadi lawa gitu. Fake! Betul-betul Fake! Sia tidak suka body dia. Macam walking skeleton! Ko tinguk tu pipi dia, masuk dalam. Ceh! Bagus kalau bulih manang ratu cantik macam sia. Sia masih lebih lawa dari dia bah!"

Pujian Berduri
Depan Kawan: "Wah Wah Wah! Sia tinguk muka sama badan ko macam berubah sudah ni. Ko pakai botox untuk kasi runcing tu dagu ko kah? Slimming Pills apa ko talan sampai dapat body begini?"
Dalam Hati Sendiri: "Ko fikir ko lawa lah sekarang? Ceh! Masih juga bah sia lebih lawa dari ko."
Cakap Sama Kawan Lain: "Si anu bah... Perasan konon dia makin lawa! Macamlah sia tidak tau apa dia guna. Dia pigi Botox baitu! Dia talan Slimming Pills lagi ah... Manada orang yang dari berjerawat tu muka, body pula macam babi terus tiba-tiba jadi lawa gitu. Fake! Betul-betul Fake! Sia tidak suka body dia. Macam walking skeleton! Ko tinguk tu pipi dia, masuk dalam. Ceh! Bagus kalau bulih manang ratu cantik macam sia. Sia masih lebih lawa dari dia bah!"

Memang lumrah manusia ada yang suka bagi puji-pujian kan? Tapi, ada kalanya orang yang bagi pujian tu sekadar di kulit saja. I'm sure kamu pun ada pengalaman kena gitu punya pujian. I wonder kalau masa menyanyi lagu puji-pujian di Gereja tu, adakah dari hati yang ikhlas atau sekadar menunaikan kewajipan sebab semua orang pun berdiri untuk menyanyi dan memuji Tuhan. Kita kasi general sikit lah kio, adakah anda berdiri tegak sambil menyanyikan lagu Negaraku, Sabah Tanah Airku tu hanya sebab memuji di kulit saja ataupun memang dari hati yang ikhlas? Wakakakakakak!

Kuat Komplen


When you're attending to a dinner, and the tickets are paid by your boss or sponsored by your family members, you pula sana complaint because the foods tidak sedap. Bersyukurlah sebab someone bought for you the tickets.

When someone offered you the dinner tickets, you asked the price, bila you know the cost, price, and menu, you complaint the price MAHAL. Don't complaint, when you know the harga ticket begitu, you know begitu laitu costing for managing an event. Orang bodoh saja yang complaint walaupun dia sudah tahu dan ada experience managing an event. Bersyukurlah because you have that knowledge and information, orang lain tu bukan semua ada tu knowledge, and ada yang minghahali tau semua benda.

When someone invited you to a wedding reception di hall or rumah, you tidak datang because you bilang jauh or 'no class'. Be grateful because ada kana invite. Jangan sampai nanti tidak kena invite lagi then you komplen sebab tu orang lupa kawu sudah. When you attend a wedding, please lah bawa angpau. At least show respect to the families, kalau ko rasa itu bride and groom rapat betul sama ko sampai ko inda perlu malu-malu kestau warna santut ko. *heheheheh... Saja*

When someone tidak invite you to a wedding reception di hotel, or ballroom, or luar negara, jangan terus-terus merajuk lepas tu mengumpat atau komplen. Maybe you previously pernah kena invite but you tidak datang (and tidak kestau pun sama the family), you tidak pernah bagi angpau (at least RM50/pax for hotel/ballroom, pigi google utk mau tau 'market price' orang bagi angpau sekarang supaya tidak kana kasi malu), ko mengumpat di belakang itu families/bride/groom, or the invitation list kena urus by the parents. Remember that itu cost is very high, and space is very limited.

Jangan sebab tiada aramaiti (which you're expecting ada dalam setiap wedding reception), trus komplen the wedding tidak siok... It shows you have no respect towards other people punya religions.

Jangan terlampau kuat komplen, nanti kamu jadi kuat kantut... K.K kan...

Respect is Earned, not Given


When someone passed away, we should pay respect. It's not because that person has more contributions that yours, or achieve higher than you. It's because our religion taught us to respect the life of that person in which one has no power to control. Our 'mohoing/molohing' also taught us to bow down, and pay our last respect to those who 'walk' earlier than us. We cannot actually do anything but put 'off' death, so we ritually acknowledge that we, too, will someday join the dead, Rest in Peace, Respect to my dead Homies, etc.

Foreign Exchange = Forex


Jangan bilang Forex tipu duit kamu. It's either you tak reti main, or you're too tamaha, or ko terlampau pintar sampai simpan Stop Loss untuk minimize kerugian ko (hahahahahah!). Pigi dulu ambil kelas Forex baru main. Bukan sekadar ikut cakap kawan atau baca artikel saja. Dan teda strategy atau software yang boleh menjamin ko akan untung sampai berpuluh-puluh pips!

Yang sioknya main ni barang, pa macam sekalipun ada orang mau kasi buruk ko, income masih masuk dalam poket sebab ini bukan melibatkan you and orang lain, but between you and how you respond to the change of market. Orang cakap ko teda guna kah, sombong kah, mulut tiada insurans kah, harap duit bapak mamak kah, etc. you still earn income. Padulilah sampai muntah darah pun diorang cakap pasal ko, you're going to shine~

If there's someone yang pigi bagitau other people yang you harap duit mak bapak you, just ignore it as long as you takde hutang sama tu manusia. It's a blessing kalau kana bagi Nissan Skyline atau Mitsubishi Evo X from parents (itu kalaulah kana bagi). Apa sahaja yang kena bagi dari parents, itu laitu rezeki ko, mau tolak pemberian dari molohing adalah sama dengan ko kasi luka hati diorang. Selagi bukan ko minta, selagi itu terima saja apa-apa pemberian dari molohing. Just be grateful, bukan banyak 'buts'...

Kaki 'Jual Nama' Orang


Sometimes bikin hairan ada orang yang suka jual nama orang untuk kepentingan diri sendiri. Selalunya di kalangan kawan sendiri dan paling teruk bila orang itu adalah kawan yang kamu selalu bawa untuk pigi makan. Sia bagi situasi, dan kamu nilai sendiri sekiranya kamu berasa dalam situasi tersebut, apa kamu akan lakukan.

Gelaran Teruk

Jangan menggelar orang yang rupanya tidak seberapa cantik itu 'babi', 'wogok', 'kunta kinte', atau orang yang bersaiz besar itu 'gajah', 'wogok', 'gemuk', 'bakas', etc. Remember that God is there, manatau balasan daripada mengejek, mengulu, dan menyindir rupa paras dan bentuk badan adalah to turn you into yang lebih teruk daripada diorang. Yalah, kecantikan dan ke'slim'an itu rezeki dari Tuhan. Kalau sembarangan saja salah guna, satu hari nanti diri sendiri jadi macam tu gelaran yang kamu bagi sama orang lain. 

Contohnya (perlu contoh juga kah?), kawan kamu tu ada masalah jerawat dan kamu pula mengejek kawan kamu (yalah, muka sendiri kan halus mulus) dan tulis di FB atau cakap sama orang lain begini, "Sudahlah muka berjerawat, perasan cantik konon! Cermin lah bah dulu tu muka sendiri!" Trust me, one day God will give her kulit yang cantik dan halus mulus, dan you pula dihiasi dengan jerawat yang susah mau sembuh unless you go minta maaf sama orang yang kamu cakap begitu (mesti dari hati yang ikhlas, kalau tidak, itu jerawat tidak akan sembuh). 

Contoh kedua (perlu juga kah? Hahaha!), kamu tahu kawan kamu tu berbadan besar dan kamu pula berbadan slim atau average sahaja. Janganlah kamurang pigi gelar macam-macam sama orang tu. Macam biasa, Tuhan itu kan adil. Dia cipta ko, dan dia cipta tu kawan juga. Mungkin kawan kamu tidak akan slim, tapi God will make you susah untuk slim pa macam sekali ko berabis sampai terkapus-kapus, atau separuh mati, dan sini sana try workout (Insanity la, HIIT lah, Gym la, Zumba la, Tae Bo la, etc.)... Dan paling teruk, bila ko berabis beli slimming pills or fat burners (sebab ko ternampak kawan-kawan yang lain consume itu barang), ko pula inda pandai slim tapi makin 'Larger Than Life'. Bila semua tidak berkesan sudah, maksudnya kamu kena minta maaf sama orang yang kamu gelar dengan gelaran yang tidak bagus. Mesti dari hati yang ikhlas. 

p.s. Tiada kena mengena dengan mana-mana status yang muncul dalam Timeline sia. Sia buka FB saja turus baca notifications sia saja. Cuma, sia teringat kes dulu-dulu yang heart to heart sama kawan-kawan. Tulunglah bah kawan-kawan kalau diorang ada masalah, dan bukan mengulu'.

Monday

It’s Monday and I’m in the office just to get all jobs done before sending them off to ‘somewhere’ later. I deal with numbers, and I investigate any discrepancies in ratios, percentage, and record. Forex is just another playground as I view it as a long-term investment; not a ‘get-rich-speedy-fast-scheme’. Economics is just a place for me to get new vision if any suprises might tick me to do SL or TP. The jargons may only be understood by those who are in the same wagon as saya. Blessed Monday.

Life as We Know It

Love is what binds us, respect is what unites us. To have love and respect for all life forms guarantees you an excellent quality of life because you will be walking around in sheer reverence to all you come across. There will never be a dull or uninspired moment.

In life we do things. Some we wish we had never done. Some we wish we could replay a million times in our heads. But they all make us who we are, and in the end they shape every detail about us. If we were to reverse any of them, we wouldn’t be the person we are. So, just live, make mistakes, have wonderful memories, but never ever second guess who you are, where you have been, and most importantly where it is you’re going.

We can never turn back the pages of time, though we may wish to relive a happy moment, or say goodbye just one last time. We never can because the sands of time continue to fall and we cannot turn the hourglass over.

Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that & living alone won’t either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You’ve to love & feel. It’s the reason you’re here on Earth. You’re here to risk your heart, to be swallowed up & when it happens that you’re broken, or betrayed, or left, or hurt, or death brushes near, let yourself sit by an apple tree & listen to the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell yourself you tasted as many as you could.

Fernanda Brum – Há Um Rio (There’s A River)


Há um rio
Fernanda Brum

Há um rio cujas águas,
Alegram a cidade de Deus, 
O santuário do altíssimo.
Onde o Rei está 
Assentado a destra do Pai 
Poderoso pra derramar 
Águas que saram 
Águas que lavam 
Águas que refrigeram 
Águas que quebram maldições 
Águas que moldam 
Águas que purificam 
Águas que santificam 
Água de paz

This one is translated from Portuguese into English. I’m not really sure if it’s accurately translated but the lyrics sounds a bit like this lah… Correct me if I mistakenly translated it as I used Google Translate bah. One of my favourite Christian song.

There’s a river
Fernanda Brum

There’s a river whose waters
Cheers the city of God
The sanctuary of the highest one
Where the King 
Is seated on the right of powerful Father 
For the spill of 
Waters that heal 
Waters that wash 
Waters that refrigerated 
Waters that break curses 
Waters that mold 
Waters that purify 
Waters that sanctify 
Water of peace
