since a LOT of people have been asking me to make a tutorial on how i wear Hijab, sampai Cik Epal pun dah mintak, i guess i can't prolong it any longer now can i?
hehe!!
so here it is!!
how's that? i hope you find this easy to follow.. i hope you like the style.. *nervous*
ok why i'm nervous? because it's not exactly so canggih in terms of belit belit..
that's why i was a bit reluctant about making this tutorial. it's too easy!! for me la.
heee..
so let me know if this is ok, will you? let me know if the video wasn't too clear or if i should wear a different coloured shawl, whatever la! it's for you guys anyway, so kena la betul betul.
OH OH!!
here's a special note for you guys too!!
hik hik!
now you've watched, let me know what you think ok?
but... i don't want to lip-sync so much because that's Teacher Shida's forte, not mine. hehe! =B hope you can understand! but i am open to suggestions. try me! haha!

and SPECIAL THANKS TO CIK EPAL FOR MAKING A POST OF ME! heish u ni baik sangat laaaa!! hehehe!! check it out HERE!
who loves traffic jams? especially during weekends when you're on your way to meet someone and you have been very excited before you left your place.
who does?
I DON'T!
i really really can't understand how jam can happen on highways.
why? why must there be jams?
whats the point of having new roads built and opening new highways?
whats the point of even creating cars with bigger cc's when they're just going to end up driving at 20km/h anyway?
so i was stuck in the jam yesterday, and i was feeling very
and then i stopped myself.
it's hot in herrr. i should put my shades on.
done. okay, maybe not.
oh bestnya, the cars are moving one inch at a time.
wah! lagi best!! the motorists are zooming past us drivers thinking we're losers coz we're stuck in this traffic. yay for the motorists!
oh wow! now a car is cutting me *without signaling*. i wanna kiss you but i can't. 6789998212. let's all sing Kiss Me Thru The Phone together!! grr..
after about 1 hour of sitting in the car and doing all this nonsense,
meeting him was probably worth the jam =)
teehee!!
ps: i don't like jams. have i mentioned that already? oh i did. okay. i still don't like them. hehehe =B
sorry i haven't been updating since last post. i was kinda having a writer's block. haha!
the video i posted, Teacher Shida Wannabe, was honestly for fun and i didn't even expect it to be so.. i don't know.. accepted? i was kinda ready for the worst. like "ko gila apa minah?", or "you wehdo", or "teacher shida lagi awesome", dan sewaktu dengannya..
i even got my 'biatch' mode on in case i have unpleasant comments! hahaha!
but alhamdulillah, people are ok with it. oh except cutecat100. pfft! =p
i was also featured on Ateyn's blog and Nabila's blog! and the video was also on people's walls on Facebook!
thank you all! lemme give all of you a hug. HUUUUUUUGGGGGG!!!!
hehe! =D
now back to reality!
i've seen videos like this loads of times. on facebook and on youtube. and everytime i watch it, it never failed to make me cry..
do watch this ladies (and men) because these people are our sisters, our kind..
i hope after you watched at least 1 of these videos, you feel what i'm feeling.
1. syukur alhamdulillah we're not where they are
2. syukur alhamdulillah we have our freedom as women
3. syukur alhamdulillah our parents have given us education
4. syukur alhamdulillah we have bright future ahead
5. syukur alhamdulillah men don't mistreat us as badly
6. syukur alhamdulillah we can wear trousers and blouse anywhere
7. syukur alhamdulillah we weren't forced into marriage with an old geezer who turns out to be abusive
8. syukur for everything
also,
9. what can i do for my fellow sisters?
10. how can i help them?
11. why do they have to suffer?
12. why are the men so cruel?
13. when can women in Afghanistan get their rights as HUMAN BEINGS?
14. can i adopt every little girl there and bring them to Malaysia and give them the freedom they need? give them education? give them love?
15. what am i supposed to do now that i know the women there are suffering?
i can't just watch these videos and do nothing. i want to help. i just don't know how and i can't afford to go there and do an 'Angelina Jolie' stunt. my heart aches watching these videos, but what change can i bring?
even Angelina Jolie can't fix the problem which lies in the CULTURE of the people there.
i felt like hiring a thousand hypnotists and take them there and hypnotise every men in the country so that they will change.
but that's impossible and of course, not allowed.
we have it so easy here. we have options and choices.
their options are - life or death. survive or give up. own's life or children's life.
wake up people, we're fortunate!
we're blessed!
i pray to you Allah swt, please protect the young ones, and give the women a special place in your Heaven, ya Allah. all their pain and sufferings, let it all not be in vain. ya Allah.. please bring justice to them who deserves it.. protect my sisters ya Allah..
let us all pray friends, for the best.. for our sisters.. for changes..
amin..
ps: this post is to remind you the fortunes we have. and to remind you that there are people still suffering in the world.
pps: i deleted the other 3 coz i think 4 videos is too much. heeee.. =p
thank you all for commenting and viewing ya!! baik la you guys! =D
honestly i didn't think anyone would've cared about what i wore and stuff. i wanted to be real in terms of choices of clothes, coz well, i want to show that you can be fashionable in any occasion.
i literally wore everything i posted! now you know what my style is like. i am not that feminine, but i'm not a tomboy either. i settle in the middle.
i wear what i'm comfortable in. when i'm comfortable, i am happy. and when i'm happy, i'm confident! oh, i always put the WEATHER as my first priority. if it's hot, wear less layers. if it's cold, well, it never really got cold.. hahaha!! (i told you kan, i sweat a lot..)
oh, here's something pleasant i want to show you!
heee..
it's my new Rayban shades!! thank you EDY!! i love it!! it looks sooo cool and i did feel so fly like a g6! hahaha!!
to me, SHE ROCKS!
she's entertaining and she' awesome! mana ada teacher like this? so why are there haters? you guys are just jealoussss~
when i was in school, my teachers all look like they're stuck in the 60's!
if i have a teacher like this then, my school days would've been so much fun-er! but my school days were already fun. thanks to my crazy friends! you know who you are!!!! =p
anyway, i made a video dedicated to her.
now i'm sorry it's not a tutorial or anything. it's just a silly video.. but if Hana Tajima can post a silly video of herself, so can i! if Teacher Shida can mime, SO CAN I!
hahaha!!
i hope you don't start an "I HATE MARIA SHARAPOVA'S WEIRD SISTER WANNABE" lak.. because honestly, i don't know if Maria Sharapova have a sister. what the heck am i writing about?!!?
OKAY.
hope you enjoy it! *nervousssss!!*
now, in the middle of lip-syncing, i kinda failed at fingering the numbers. haha! noob kan?
and at the end of it, the part when i was talking, i was actually blur. i didn't think of what i wanted to say. so it became like dat la. weird. =p
so sorry ok if you don't get the video or if you think it's like whaaattt?, it's ok. you can just buang blog ni jauh jauh. oh oh, i looked very messy in this video.. because! i was at home and i just got back from serdang. hahaha!! =p punya semangat nak buat this video okaayyhh!
but chop ekk!! after watching my videos, i hope you DON'T think i'm a snobby biatch ok! i am just like you guys! baik, suci murni dan bahagia. hahahahaha!! amboiiii~
that's about it!
next video will be an educational one ok? this one is like whaaattt? sangat.. hehe!!
wuuu.. it's the last day for the loved week of all time! but fret not my dearests, i am positive that this won't stop here. =D
so today's HFW theme is "the Cup of Life" - Running Errands.
everyday is like an errand to me! since i live by myself now, i have to buy food, stock up on groceries and toiletries, wash my clothes, clean my room and the apartment, fill up the petrol, OHHH the list just goes on and on!! hehee!
here, i'm wearing checkered shirt which i bought in Jakarta many years ago, my favourite brown jeans, orange gladiator sandals from CarloRino, mom's old brown sling bag from Bally, shawl tepi jalan and awesome shades i bought in Amsterdam. the hand accessories are my everyday wear. i hardly ever take them off! i told you i love accessories. =D
running errands, i must always wear clothes i'm comfortable in. i'll be walking around and the probability of me sweating while doing my errands is HIGH! so just a simple outfit is favorable. oh oh oh!! I'M A JEANS GIRL!holla!
who says brown jeans ain't prettayh?
tata!!
thank you Em, from Modesty Theory for hosting such a creative and fun event in this blogging world! it is really an honour to have been one of the girls to strut my style =)
thank you also to all of you darlings who have commented and viewed our blogs throughout!
i am soooo grateful, i wish i can hug each and everyone of you!

now before i end this post, i just want to warn you Malaysians to be careful of Denggi which is spreading like wildfire nowadays. avoid going to places with loads of mosquitoes, i.e. restaurant tepi tasik, stall next to a drain, anywhere you see have high population of mosquitoes. don't take Denggi lightly.
be careful ok? prevention is better than cure!
+++
take care everyone! see you on normal blogging days ok! =D
if you know Yeah Yeah Yeahs, then you know what i'm talking about =B
else, it's ok.
i got a date with Dato'! ummm actually i HAD a date with Dato'. these were taken last week when we went to Bukit Tinggi the 1st time, but we missed our chance to wear the kimono. hence, he took me there AGAIN, just so that i got to wear the kimono (as seen on HFW 4)! how sweet is Dato'? =D
Dato', belanja i makan tonight? =B
here, i was wearing Miss Selfridge long dress inside (it's on sale now!! go grab 'em!), and a chiffon aztec-ish top bought at a street market, red sling bag from Primark, red pumps from Cotton On (forgive me, but i do love my red pumps!), shawl from tepi jalan, rings and headband from Forever 21.
here's a close up on my top and my muka seposen (10cents face):
y'all wanna peace of me? yeah mayn, i did say peace.
heehee!!
ok here's my pose seposen (10cents pose):
sorry for the poyoness! i get worse as Dato' was taking pictures.. because i had that ANTM mode on, and dayumm girrrllll, i wanna be on top! hahaha!
simple again right? but it's comfortable, it's sweet, and it's not dull. patterns are so in right now and i am loving these abstracts on my top! i wore that headband because i've had it since i wasn't wearing hijab (before), and i can't give it away.. i love it too much! so i thought, the heck with it, i'm gonna wear it Arab-styleee! haha!
now Dato', i:
want you to make me feel, like i'm the only girl in the world,
like i'm the only one you'll ever love,
like i'm the only one who knows your heart,
only girl in the world.
hehe!! i miss my Dato' very much, and if you're reading this Dato', i love you! =D
so today's theme is Weekend Wear, and on weekends, i usually hang out with my family!
my family and i always have dinner together on weekends, so last weekend, we had ours at the Curve. during dinner, we update each other about our lives, make fun of each other, piss each other off, talk about random stuff, etc etc. oh, and we usually eat for about 15mins. yes, we are fast eaters. =p
i love my family =)
"hi Maria, can i kiss u?" "yow a wehdo"
(you're a weirdo in british slang, fyi)
so i wore a simple salmon coloured inner, a lace button-down shirt i wore as cardigan, navy blue maxi skirt, vintage sling bag, and for shoes, i wore oxford flats!
teehee! hope you can see it. sorry la camera biasa jeee. =B
here's a clearer picture of my top:
meet Mr.Diggles! he's my brother's pet hedgehog. incredibly cute and prickly, and he's sooo hyper! =D
anyway, i really like how that turquiose pendant pops out from the blahhness of my attire. it matches with the hues in my hijab too. it's a simple combination (like all my other clothes for the past 4 days), but it's just the way i like it. i am all about simplicity and basic wear.
that's why i love accessories! they can just add that extra attitude into your look. =D
that's really it about my outfit! hope you like it and maybe get inspired for the next time you go out with your family or friends on your weekend!
visit the other babes on their weekends at Modesty Theory!
