Heart @1 Ramadhan 1427H

Assalamualaykum.

Currently this song has been marked as "repeat one" in my iTunes.
(That means only that song will be repeated in my playlist.)
Just thought of sharing my latest favourite Indonesia song (since Dealova.)



My Heart
Irwansyah feat. Acha Septriasa

Di sini kau dan aku
Terbiasa bersama
Menjalani kasih sayang
Bahagia kudenganmu

Pernahkah kau menguntai
Hari paling indah
Ku ukir nama kita berdua
Di sini surga kita

Bila kita mencintai yang lain
Mungkin kah hati ini akan tegar
Sebisa mungkin tak akan pernah
Sayang ku akan hilang

If we love somebody
Could we be this strong
I will fight to win
Our love will conquer all
Wouldn't *reach* my love
Even just one night
Our love will stay in my heart
My heart...

Pernahkah kau menguntai
Hari paling indah
Ku ukir nama kita berdua
Di sini surga kita

Bila kita mencintai yang lain
Mungkin kah hati ini akan tegar
Sebisa mungkin tak akan pernah
Sayang ku akan hilang

Bila kita mencintai yang lain
Mungkin kah hati ini akan tegar
Sebisa mungkin tak akan pernah
Sayang ku akan hilang

If we love somebody
Could we be this strong
I will fight to win
Our love will conquer all
Wouldn't *reach* my love
Even just one night
Our love will stay in my heart
My heart...

*Is it "reach"? Correct me if it's not the word.

hobby??

Assalamualaykum.

When I couldn't get online for a day, I became like a cacing kepanasan, you know.
Felt like something's wrong the whole day.
Incomplete.
It's also frustrating when I couldn't think of anything to write.
Mental block.
So, the next best thing is always Photoshop.
Brushing up my skills in photo editing and/or drawing.

(Took 2 days to finish this.Haha)

But for these past few days (since the server's down), I managed to try the Picasa software my friend Nana used (to edit the pix) in her blog.

I personally like this 'picture pile' feature.
The only setback is that we can't pile the pictures manually.


Hanging out with mis amigos.


Another feature is 'picture grid'.
Allows you to assemble pictures in one file.
Like this one too, but looks boring,kan?
:)

Apple(s) of my eyes:
Hasif Hilman,Fatimah Naquiyah,Haziq Husaini,Hassan AnNuqman,Muaz


My eye-candy:
Hyeon Bin (from the KDrama My Name's Kim Sam Soon)

So people, when I'm not teaching, or surfing the net, or updating my blog or running away from my boss this what I do.
Thanks Shambie for introducing me to Photoshop (hence this hobby).
And Nana, for suggesting Picasa to Deya (and indirectly to me).

Have a great weekend.
I won't coz I'll be working!!!

Wassalam.

Grandma's secrets.



Assalamualaykum.

Ever wasted your money on beauty products that don't work on you?
Fret not as this post might have something to offer.
Beauty care and women, simply can't be separated.

I have been meaning to share this with everyone the moment I read the article by Syida Litza Amirul Ihsan. (NST Life&Times, Aug 14)
And since I could not find the article in its web,(to simply copy and paste) so I took a longer time to re-type the petua for you.
My super busy week has ended when my students sat for their last UPSR English paper last Wednesday.
Phewwww~

Yeah, I agree that these recipes are not clinically proven.
Be cool. No harm in trying, right?
These are our grandmothers secret beauty solution to everything.
Plus you can simply get the ingredients straight out of your kitchen.
Not that they'll cost you a fortune. :)
So, here goes... ~

To achieve smooth skin:
Try mashing a ripe tomato (as you would potatoes).Then plaster the paste on your face, just like the facial mask. Let it dry for 20 minutes before rinsing with cold water. Do it 2-3 times a week.

Or, you can mix a little tamarind with warm water and a spoonful of tapioca flour. Mix until it becomes thick before smothering it on your face. Let it dry for 15 minutes and then rinse.

For porcelain-like skin:
Drink pegaga juice mixed with carrot. It may not the sweetest-tasting drink but it's healthy and natural. (Don't add sugar! Won't do the trick.)

Elastic skin??:
Mix tapioca flour and mashed cucumber and add a little water to dilute the mixture. Use itlike a face mask and rinse once it is dry. The cool essence of cucumber will also help refresh the tired skin.


Wrinkle problem:
Carrots help. Add a spoonfulof corn flour to a small bowl of grated carrot and add one egg yolk. After mixing well,the mixture is pasted on wrinkled skin. Do it once everyday for best results.


Long lashes:
Mascara?? Extensions?! No need those as you can try using some aloe vera essence and stroke it on your lashes before going to bed. Do it frequently and Insya Allah your lashes will be long and healthy.

To avoid hair falling:
Take a few hibiscus leaves and aloe vera. Wash them and blend until the mixture becomes slimy. Rub the mixture onto your scalp and hair and wait for an hour before rinsing. Do it twice a week and in time, your hair will become thick and shiny.

Dandruff?!:
Squeeze kaffir lime (limau purut) or lime juice on the scalp and leave for a few hours. Better still, wrap your hair in towel. Rinse with warm water.

Cracked heels:
Try bathing your feet in a pool of warm water with asam gelugor. Do it for 30 minutes every day until your heels heal.

To get rid of tired eyes:
Sliced cucumbers (refrigerated) or used teabags placed on your eyes for 20 minutes will do the trick. Eyes will feel cool and fresh. Just remember to line the teabags with a piece of tissue before placing them on your eyes. Or else the raccoon effect will be visible. :)

"Selamat Mencuba!!"

Wassalam~

hp

HP stands for Hewlett Packard or HANDPHONE???
Ha ha ha.

Assalamualaykum.
For your information, this past couple of days I've been hp-hunting throughout the Net.
Not that I'm buying one A.S.A.P, but will be la, insyaAllah.
To be exact, I was looking for a PDA phone with 3G connection enabled.
And at last, I found what I was searching for:

That 'thing' is called O2 Xda Trion.
I was drooling when I read the specifications.
Almost everything that I need in a PDA, Trion has them.
(Except for FM Radio.)
The sad thing is, the phone has yet to come to Malaysia.
And when it does, you can guess-la its price,right??!

I remembered K Ruby once told me she wanted a Vertu phone.
Truth be told, that was the first time I came across that brand.
And when I looked through the web (carefully this time), I was double shocked to know that the meterials used for Vertu phones are so out of this world I couldn't dare to imagine their price.
Below is the picture of Vertu Diamond.
Not sure whether this is the one that K Ruby's longing for.
(Or are you more interested with the PINK edition? :) )

So, K Ruby..hopefully you'll get your Vertu soon.
My Trion will have to wait a while la.
Waiting for my bonus. LOL

Daaaaaaaa~

Wassalam.
