If previously, you had seen this petite dude riding a huge bike, that would have prolly been Ikhwan. We were in the same account previously and went for lunch a couple of times. Unfortunately, as of 6.55pm yesterday, Ikhwan passed away after spending almost a day in the ICU. Apparently, he fell off his bike and was "hit&run" by a MyVi. Sigh! What is happening to the world today? Yes, life and death is within God's control but i strongly believe that the driver should have helped him. It is prolly stated from up above that it was his time to go and hope that Allah SWT bless his soul.

Gossip Girl may have bid farewell but Blair Waldorf Fashion stays in my heart forever and always. I just love love love love love her style and Leighton Meester is just the perfect pretty face to carry out the character.
Here are some of my favorite looks (pictures were taken from google image search result):
Joke of the Day: A woman went shopping, At cash counter she opened her purse to pay. The cashier noticed a TV remote in her purse. He cud'nt control his curiosity n asked "Do u always carry ur TV remote with u?" She replied " No, not always, but my husband refused to accompany me for shopping today.. SO...😡😝😄😄 The story continues.... The shopkeeper smiles and takes back all the items that lady had purchased. Shocked at this act, she asks the shopkeeper what is he doing. He said your husband has blocked your credit card. MORAL : Respect the hobbies of your husband.😝😎
Azhar, a friend of mine from India shared the joke above late last night. A little sexiest, don't you think? Haha! Talk about one out smarting the other.
It has been almost 10 months that I've been married. My life changed a lot ever since and I'm expecting it to change even more when the baby comes. In reality, nothing comes easy. So I am not going to deny that adjusting to my new life can be rather challenging. The best thing about it is that you are not alone. Your spouse is prolly going through the same thing and is with you throughout the journey.
People would think that we are attached to each other all the time. However, that is not the case. Hubster still goes for outtings with his friends, dance practice and manage a football team during his free time. I, on the other hand, still go out with my friends and have some alone time pampering myself. Contrary to the joke above, i sometimes prefer to shop without my husband. Honestly, i can't bear the thought of him waiting for me to make up my mind. LOL! Unlike men, women love to window shop.
Being married, one thing we had to ensure is that none of us gets to drowned into each other. But don't get me wrong, being together is important too. There are sacrifices to be made for your marriage. Just that you prolly need some time to yourself. It is important to know how to be alone so that another person will not define you.
My wound is not dried up and starting to get flaky. The damaged skin is now peeling off which causes it to itch even more. I try my best to not scratch the wound. However, there are a few times when I woke up in the middle of the night finding myself scratching the wound. WhOOOOPPPPPsssSSSS!!! I can't be blamed right? I was unconscious. Sigh! As for the scarring, I'm really not sure how bad the damage is. Lets wait till all of the damaged skin is off.
Last weekend, I was shocked to see these pictures posted by my friends of a Uni-mate's house. He was staying with his in-laws at Saujana Impian, Kajang. Last week, they were on a family trip back to their hometown in Ipoh when Amar (the uni-mate in question) received a call from the forensic notifying him that their house was broken into and set on fire (95% loss.. That can already be considered as total loss to me). Initially, they thought it was a robbery and the robbers set the house on fire to erase evidence. However, the evidence shows that it is the other way round because they actually found jeweleries and valuable items still in the house. They suspect that it is an act out of jealousy or something like that. Not sure who is the person with such ulterior motive to cause such damages but the act is inhuman and pure cruelty. I've heard the phrasa saying, "You can't make everybody like you; you don't even like everybody" but I never knew that there are still people performing such act in this modern day. My prayers are with Amar and his family. May Allah S.W.T. bless and protect Amar and family. Hope they will get through this challenge.
There's an article on the incident at Metro. Read the article here.
Just a little update, the large blister is now drying up and the wound is really healing. Which is really good. I was on the doctor's prescription for like 3 days and didn't get this much of a result.
Gotta Love Her Figure... I wonder if I'll ever get a figure like that post pregnancy....
I love looking at her figure ever since watching her on CW's Hellcats. Yes, the show may be canceled but the image of Ashley Tisdale's figure sticks in my head like forever.
6 days a week workout
High Protein Low Carb Diet
1 Cheat Day a Week
Here are some articles I read online on how she maintains her figure:

I
was in a lift when it then stopped at 1st
Floor. Two young and slim girls walks in and one of them
casually pressed the elevator button for G
Floor. This made me furious! There i was, in a hurry, wanting
to go from 5th Floor to G floor and came up this two pricks. Its only a bloody
level. Haven't you heard of stairs? It takes longer for you to wait for the lift
than to walk down the damn stairs. I hope you grow fat and die of a heart
attack.
So I tried the House of Healin's Lukano Lotion on my wound and here's my review so far. Upon applying the lotion, being aloe vera based and all, the lotion was soothing cool even when I didn't store it in the refrigerator. After 1 day (3 applications), the smaller blister has now disappeared and drying up; the big blister has now shrunken to at least half of it's size. Weehoo!!! However, it is starting to itch. People say that it is a sign that the wound is healing. Now, all I have to do is try my best not to scratch it.
Last Friday was a rather unfortunate day for me. I was in an accident and as a result, I suffered from what the doctor termed as superficial scald. A large portion of my left thigh and a portion of my left tummy was affected. If you are wondering what is scald, scald is the burn on your skin caused by boiling liquid or water. I read online saying that superficial first degree scald normally heals after 3-5 days with minimal scaring and scalds with blisters are termed as Superficial partial thickness (Second degree) scald. Now, I am no longer sure about my case because my left thigh is covered with blisters. So, mine is clearly second degree. Darn IT! It's going to leave a huge scar. If you wonder how a Second Degree Scald looks like, here's a description: affected area is red with clear blister+blanches with pressure. Hubster was of course very upset about it and practically banned me from going near anything hot.
It was the first time for me to encounter such case that we didn't know what to do. Hubster and I were both alone at home at that time. The moment the boiling water hit my skin, I went all silent and tried my best to think of how to manage the situation. Hubster came right away but he wasn't sure how he could help the situation. We were both educated to be engineers so we had no clue and what to do. I tried to be strong but broke into tears when I start feeling my skin getting cooked. The portion which had a higher impact started to peel. Hubster tried to google for a remedy but of all the times, the internet was down then. He wasn't sure what would help it or what would make the situation worse. I called my mom who checked with her doctor cousin. We were advised to have running water to cool it off and apply Savlon. Savlon? Where were we going to find that? I then called my cousin who then told me that she saw the discovery channel advising to put the affected area under running water and apply egg white to treat the scald. My mom then advised to apply Colgate to cool it off. OK, at that point, everyone was giving me all sorts of advise and I didn't know what to do so I did the most logical thing, follow the similar advice which water sitting under a cold shower and just grab the closest thing to me which was Colgate. After that, we pretty much rushed to the clinic (being pregnant and all we needed to know whether it was just my skin being affected). The doctor said since it is superficial (epidermic), the baby should be fine. But I will have to take good care of my burn to prevent infection. I really hope our Chicharito is ok. Sorry Chicharito for giving you such a scare.
I learned a thing or two about scald. After removing the source of scald, the skin can continue to cook in response to the heat. If you were in such an experience, here's what you should do:
Straight away look for running cold water (gentle) and put the affected area under it. If you can get a bucket of iced water, soak the affect area. This helps to stop the burn and ease the pain a little. NEVER apply plain ice directly to it.
Remove any piece of item at the affected area.
Apply Savlon or Aloe Vera.
Consult a doctor.
Scaring or not, what's important is to focus on healing the wound first. My cousin recommend House of Healin's Lukano Lotion which only cost RM28. It is an aloe vera based lotion which helps to promote healing for scalds. Hubster just got it for me. Hope it works though. At the moment, I'm enduring the pain by wearing skirts and dresses. Will update on how effective the lotion. Till next time, wish me luck!
Despite all of the bright and sunny things about pregnancy, there are a few things that would prolly need adjustments. One of the biggest part of it is adjusting to the changes of my body. Don't get me wrong. I love having a baby. In fact, i'm very excited about our Chicarito. However, that does not change the fact that i'm losing my waist line, breaking out and too tired to spend that extra 15minutes to groom myself into a presentable form. I look at so many women who made it through and wonder how they managed. Owh, to add on to it, due to the bleeding i had during the first trimester, i can't exercise during pregnancy. Everyday, i will wake up, go to work with the utmost messy and wet hair, looking fatigue, work, go home, prepare dinner, clean the house, sleep and the routine goes on everyday. Having a construction right next to your house really does not help as it will make your house extremely dusty every single day. Hence, the cleaning requirement. As a result, i sometimes look at the mirror feeling rather depressed with the way i look. If only I could just spend a little bit more to pamper myself with a saloon treatment finished hair every once awhile. Last 2 weeks i had to bid farewell to my decade old hairdryer as it was giving those electric sparks. Guess what I did this week? I went in a little shopping spree at Hair Depot. Hihi... As a result, hello great hair day! Thanks to a great new hair dryer, Paul Mitchell's Tea Tree hair and scalp treatment, Paul Mitchell's extra body daily boost, Lakme's deep hair treatment and this hair brush i got from Shins that is. I hope i can keep up with the routine. Checking out Fara Qippy, Delima, Yasmin J Soh and Vivy Proudduck's pictures for motivation. I know Fara Qippy and Delima personally and think that they are super mommies for being able to juggle career life, being a mom and looking awesome all at once. Wish me luck!
I'm not normally a fan of Rihanna's songs. Somehow the culture of the songs makes her feel a tad bit mediocre. Not like I'm an expert in music. It's just my point of view. Her songs don't normally appeal to me. We're not going to go about her choices in men especially Chris Brown. Yes, initially I kinda look up to her for loving herself and not allowing to be bullied by men especially after the Chris Brown battery case. She became a role model for young women for awhile till she fall back. Well, I guess the heart wants what the heart wants. It's her personal choice. Being in the public eye, people are bound to have a thing or two to say about you. Anyway, back to the main reason of this post, Rihanna's Stay feat Mikky Ekko has been ringing in my head this morning. There's something about the melancholy tune and the dependency of the lyrics that makes it rather human; not necessarily happy but realistically beautiful. A feeling that words can't really explain. Guess it's a lot deeper than most of Rihanna's songs which is why I like it so much.
"Stay" (feat. Mikky Ekko)
All along it was a fever
A cold sweat hot-headed believer
I threw my hands in the air and said, "Show me something,"
He said, "If you dare come a little closer."
Round and around and around and around we go
Oh now tell me now tell me now tell me now you know
Not really sure how to feel about it.
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you.
It takes me all the way.
I want you to stay
It's not much of a life you're living
It's not just something you take – it's given
Round and around and around and around we go
Oh now tell me now tell me now tell me now you know
Not really sure how to feel about it.
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you.
It takes me all the way.
I want you to stay.
Ooh the reason I hold on
Ooh cause I need this hole gone
Funny you're the broken one but I'm the only one who needed saving
Cause when you never see the light it's hard to know which one of us is caving
Not really sure how to feel about it.
Something in the way you move
Makes me feel like I can't live without you.
It takes me all the way.
I want you to stay, stay.
I want you to stay, oh.
