Beauty isn't make-up.
It's you. 

hye darla. i havent updated this blog for so long. been busy wif raya n braces thingy. hahaha. know what, i jz loss almost 8kg in the fasting month. i can call it as a big achievement since 1kg was a big number to lose for me. hehe. but well, i started to have problem to keep my weight. raya food was superb. wif rendang n my fav ayam masak merah, how can i say no. but yeah, the braces help me to cut my intake. at least by making me tired of slowly chewing my food. dats sad. LOL.

*****************************************

owh well, i have this story for you. you know i came from all-girls school. been a prisoner surrounded by only girls n had very minimum access to the boys made me so comfortable with myself. i mean, i was growing up as who i am. no make up. simple clothes. and i treat people equally. no gender. no sex.   i can say im very proud of that. but i still have this one problem. BEING TOO COMFORTABLE WITH MYSELF CAUSED MY TO SIMPLY IGNORE N BEING NOT AWARE OF MY APPEARANCE. not all the time, but still most of the time. hahahaha.

of all money i have, i spend most of them on food. n keep complaining about my weight. dats why i told you, 1kg was a big number to lose. ;) when its come about beauty care, i think its in the bottom-10-things i should think about. haiih. i always wonder why my friend could spend over hundreds juz for the facial set. because honestly, i dont care. (i care sometimes but for a very short period only....)

i think im lucky. my skin kinda free-problem type. i have minimal acne problem. its oily especially at noon. but i can simply wash my face wif any soap. you think its crazy? well, i told you im lucky. hahaha.

but i remember this one time. after being too ignorant while having my 'red-corner' of the month. it was last year, if im not mistaken. when my best-friend suddenly worried about my face bcoz there were many dark spots. n he forced me to go to any pharmacy. he even wanted to buy those expensive facial set for me. hehehe. of course i refused. hey its my skin. im the one that should be responsible for it. so yeah i bought one set of facial care. n keep trying my best to take good care of my skin.

and last ramadan. my sister introduced to me with this vitamins.  

owh yeah. ITS SHAKLEE. its well-known n has good reputation. n of course, its HALAL. so i gve it a try. n i can really feel the changes on my skin. the acne problem reduces. the pores become smaller. the dark spots become unnoticeable. n while having my 'ehemehem red-corner' all the problems seems to go away. haha. my free-problem skin seems to be better.

i know this is form4 syllabus, but many of us already forget about it. well, at least me. hehehe. sorry science teacher. well, we always want flawless skin like many celebrities. spending a lot of money on facial set, make-up, collagen. but we always forget this one thing. VITAMINS ARE WHAT WE NEED. come on. how many of us can confidently say that we take balance diet? our intake are only healthy food? we dont add msg on our meal? think about it. 

experts said that vitamin c is essential for everybody. this vitamin is an anti-aging vitamin that can helps to keep you look young. it also protects our skin from the harmful UV rays. it will heal the wounds and recover the scars. why must spend your money on expensive collagen in the market when vitamin c can do better?  know wat,  you can save a lot since vitamin c is essential for the synthesis of collagen. and its natural n safe. 

vitamin b-complex is a combination of 8 different type of vitamin b. its helps the body to produce energy and keep the skin, nervous system, digestive system healthy. taking this vitamin will protects us from tiredness, amnesia, muscle cramp and hair loss. vitamin b-complex also helps in strengthen our immune system. i remember JILLIAN from the famous american show - THE BIGGEST LOSER - said "to love our body is to keep our body healthy..". and now, do you still have any excuse for not taking this vitamin?

vitamin e is another essential vitamin we should take daily. this is an antioxidant that protects body tissue from damage caused by substance called free radicals. we also need vitamin e to keep our immune system strong. this vitamin reduces the risk of cancer, heart disease, dementia and stroke. one good thing about vitamin e from shaklee is, you can use it as facial mask and allow your face to absorb the nutrients.  i tried it once. and it works. my skin feel so much better. :)

so, if you wanna try this product, you can order it through me. this set that really good for having healthier you can be purchase wif only rm246. hey, rm246 is a small number compared to any facial session you must attend at least once a month. plus, rm246 is for 3 months. so its only about rm80 per month. its cheap. especially for a great effect you will experience. and if ignorant people like me can change, why must you wait.   i can guarantee you that you will not regret.

havva try. get it now. dont wait.

till then. salam.

Instead of being a princess and keep waiting for my prince charming
why dont I be like Khadijah.
and get the best man among all?

assalamualaikum lovely readers. selamat menyambut ramadhan. selamat berpuasa. selamat menyambut syawal. cewah all in one. well i havent updated my blog oftenly. mainly because i dont have any story to share. kalau ade pon its just a thought. a sudden thought or something i found over the internet that i hope can inspire you.  hahaha. oh well, i dont want to be a boss. i want to be an inspiration. :)

tell you what, my dearest valours reunited last saturday. we had an iftar at nandos together. meeting some of them after a long time means a lot to me. of course it made me feel young. i still remember how kecoh our dininghall was during the iftar. sharing food together. haaa wats a memory. and having another chance to experience the same thing all over again is something i really cant say NO.

us after the iftar :) 

21 but still look like hot-high-school-girls right.

wif brain of course. haha

ok well, as i told you, valours are the best people on earth to talk with when it comes about marriage.  so yes, we talk about it a lot. like who gonna naik pelamin first. how many tables should be reserved. and so on. i realize one thing, we, i can say most of the girls in this world, wanna be like a princess. and waiting for a perfect prince charming to come and propose us. tall, handsome, rich. just say it, he has it all. i was one of them. i wanted to have such prince in my life. to spend my whole life in a big castle. have servants to do everything for me. until last night which i dont know why i cant sleep.

i love night because we gonna be more emotional and simply said more jiwang. so while trying hard to sleep last night, this one weird song was stuck in my head. "renjis renjis dipilis..ditepungilah tawar..blablabla.." probably because i watched the latest CSI that night. which crime happened to be in wedding ceremonies.  then i have this sudden thought. IF I WANT TO BE LIKE A PRINCESS, WHICH PRINCESS SHOULD I BE? Cinderella? i dont want to be that poor. and running with one shoes left is much embarrassing.  Rapunzel?  i dont want to be locked up in a tower. hey i have licensed and car. i want to explore the world. Princess Diana? the people princess? well, i dont want to die like her.  SO I ASKED MYSELF, WHO IS THE MOST LUCKY WOMAN? the answer is, luckier, because she is the last love of a man. haha. you are a loser if you dont get the joke. :)

well, for that question, i might probably answer Mumtaz Mahal. the greatest symbol of love was built after her name. how many people traveled to India just to see Taj Mahal. it even be listed as one of  7 wonders of the world.  but hey, Mumtaz was Shah Jahan's 3rd wife. and no matter how special she is to Shah Jahan, she is just someone in the history. someone ordinary.

and then later in that dark night,  i suddenly remember Khadijah. i think she is the most luckiest woman. she was rich. very rich. she was beautiful. and she has the most beautiful heart at her time. and most important, she was married to the best man a human can be. Rasullah might not built any glamour building for her, but he built this empire. Islam.  and what make it sweeter is, they built it together.  and they succeeded together. and as long as a muslim can breath, she will be blessed. she will be remembered. people will send her doa. and she will be happily aver after, since she gonna leads us all to jannah.

BUT HOW CAN SHE BE SO LUCKY?
i remember few months ago, while attending my cousin engagement, many relatives asked, when my turn gonna be. as cliche, i answered "insyallah..". but that time, i dont know when my big day will come. the future seems so blurr because instead of trying my best to find my husband, i keep waiting for my prince charming to come. someone that will bend down and propose me like in many romantic american movies. i can tell that Hollywood movies usually overshadowed  the romantic story in Islam. i mean, bending down while proposing seems so much sweeter compared  to taaruff session when it was the first time the groom usually be amazed with how beautiful a woman can be. lip kissing seems more romantic compared to the first kiss in the bride forehead after the pakcik2 say "SAH".

thinking about khadijah, i wonder what will she tell me, if i seek her love advice. i know i will never have that opportunity (in a dream maybe) but at least i have her story. so now, instead of waiting for prince, i will work hard. i will study hard, get stable income. be a better muslimah day by day. and pray that ALLAH percepatkan jodoh saya. instead of let someone propose me, i want to propose a guy on my choice. i want to make the choice and not being an option. well, khadijah was the one that proposed Rasullah. thats why she can get the best man on earth. and at that time, Rasullah was very young, not even a Rasul yet. but she have faith in him. she dont act like many women which usually wants a financially stable man. instead she help him through his journey. she spent everything she owns for her husband for only one reason. LOVE. i know its gonna be hard, especially in this kind of world where things are being loved and people are being used, but i have faith in ALLAH. and i believe his words. “…women of purity are for men of purity, and men of purity are for women of purity” – Qur’an 24:26  and i believe that if i follow his rule, he will help me because hey, who can love me more than him? after all ill lose nothing. and i already have an example. look at what Khadijah get, she get whatever a girl could asked for. love. glory. bless. everything.

so if one day you see me still not married, dont ask me whhen my big day will, instead please pray so i will have a good husband. and if you see me be married to someone and you have a thought of "i think you can get someone better.." why dont you change your mind to "may ALLAH bless you both..". because in this world there are 3 things we should really rely on ALLAH. REZEKI, JODOH dan AJAL. be a better person, love ALLAH more than you love yourself and you will be loved more than you can ever imagine. this is what khadijah did.

~wat a long entry after trying so hard to sleep.

till then, salam.

A wife is like a gift to a man. 


So prepare yourself to be a gift 
(and not a test) to your future husband, 
so that one day he will hold you and look lovingly in your eyes and say 


“Alhamdulillah”.
