My Very Own Taeyang!

The Oh-So-Yummy Taeyang!

I've been a huge fan of Taeyang since I was introduced to his music. It was like love at first sight. Just that, well, it's not love love if you know what I mean. Anyway, I am proud to announce I scored my very own Taeyang! Check out my one and only Hubster Ezry Ibrahim, rocking Taeyang's Ringa Linga...
I would also like to add that some of the dancers in this video are students of different levels. so really, everyone who is anyone can join in the fun and dance...
Check his class out next year at Sole To Soul Dance Studio!
Kudos for making the video a success~ ;P

Most Glam Most Stylish 2013

If you have read my earlier post entitled ‘Mr Perfect 10?’, you would have known that Hubster was made one of Glam’s Most Stylish Men of 2013. He was then invited to Glam’s Most Glam Most Stylish Award night at Aloft Kuala Lumpur. Being such a sweetheart, he asked them whether he could bring a Plus 1 so that he can take me along. And being such a supportive wife *flips hair*, I was there to accompany him. Haha! Owh well, I deserve some credits ok. After all, behind every great man is an even greater woman. It was my first time going to such an event that I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was pretty excited to dress up for the event. Unfortunately, my post pregnancy body made it pretty difficult for me to rock any outfit. Most of the outfit shows how out of shape I am. In the end, I decided to wear a non-figure-flattering red dress from Dorothy Perkins, my mom’s gold evening bag and my Stuart Weitzman shoes. 

Glam's Most Glam + Most Stylish 2013

Hubster has always been a very punctual person. He was very determined to arrive there in time. I on the other hand, tried to delay him. “We’re in Malaysia, plus it’s a fashion event. All the more reason to be fashionably late”, I told him. He then replied me, “No, we are not going to be late because I’m not a celebrity”. Ok, fine. I tried my best to get ready as soon as I could. Being a mom, there’s a lot to adjust. That day would be the first time I left my baby for more than 10 hours. Most of my time spent calling to check how Zara was doing. Also, that would be the first time I left Zara at night when she is so used to me being around when it’s dark. It was also a Friday night. With the new contract expansion, it was impossible for me to leave much earlier. After going through the traffic, feeling fatigue and nervous, I managed to get ready in time and we arrived at 8pm sharp. 

As much as I guessed, the event did start late. The guest arrived much later. After all, what’s a fashion event without being fashionably late? People there were very much fashion forward and I could tell that Malaysians may not be so affected by the downfall of the economy. With one glance, I would tell that they were wearing the latest designer fashion trends. I spotted more than 2 person wearing the Lego Chanel clutch! From Valentino studded shoes to metallic silver Dior Bag, it was as if they just came out from a fashion magazine or it was like we were absorbed in a magazine. Gosh! I was pretty much at awe but tried my best to remain cool when truth is, I was checking out what they were wearing going “OMG! That’s in my wishlist!” or “OMG! That’s such a pretty pair of shoes!”. Secretly, I was wishing that I could score those item as I grinned at Hubster hoping that he’ll get me something new real soon. LOL! I felt a little alienated surrounded by all these socialites. I recognized a few high profile faces such as Mia (she was Hana’s friend), the Mimpikita girls (made a few clothes with them but I doubt Nurul remembers me), Nora Khalid (she’s actually a family friend but I’m more familiar with her sister, Kak Emma and brother, Azlan), Adila Long (I follow her on Instagram-Love Love Love her songket clutch) and the list goes on. Celebrities like Marsha Milan, Amy Search, Umie Aida (my god! She has the tiniest waist and looks amazingly hot!) and Andeng were there too.

Owh, Did I tell you? Amy Search performed Isabella LivE! I heard Isabella LIVE! OMG OMG OMG!

 

There were times when I felt as if I was a polar bear stuck in a big city. Then I met 2 familiar faces, Arene and Kak Fara. I’m always a little intimidated when I meet Kak Fara. It is more like a Star Struck kinda thing. I’ve always idolized her ever since I was small. She’s like super cool with her cool outfits, listened to cool songs, went to concerts in Singapore, she has a pretty face, warm personality and cool achievements. My brains sometime go blank when I see her. Every time we meet, I had to remind myself that “hey! She’s a family friend and we’ve known each other since I was only 4 years old”. Only after that I can talk to her like normal. LOL! Anyway, she looked incredibly gorgeous that night. Mother of 1, she amazed me with the ability to look presentable always.

 Being ordinary from an average background, both Hubster and I did what ordinary people do at any event, which is checking out the food. We were pretty disappointed that there were only finger foods and nasi lemak in a small pack. No wonder those in the fashion line were able to maintain such a tiny figure even after going to so many events. The portions served were very small. Even Bront Palarae agreed with us. He told Hubster “Makanan mcm bukan makanan pon” when they were up on stage. LOL! Btw, I must add that Bront Palarae looked dashing that night! *Jawdropped* -I’m married with a child-I’m married with a child- I’m married with a child. Hahahahahah!!!!! Don’t worry sayang, you are still my Mr Perfect 10! 

It is always great to see a familiar face in a totally new environment but it is even better when that someone can make you feel right at home. I was lucky Arene was around. Knowing that we didn’t know anyone else there, she asked me to hang with her when Hubster was busy on stage and what not. Thank you so much Arene! It was very sweet of you! FYI, Arene is one of the designers of Innaired. She makes the utmost pretty clothes that will make you feel like a princess! If you are looking for something to wear for a special occasion, head to their office in Damas. I’m sure you won’t be disappointed. 

Us with Arene. Aizat, you still belom jumpe my baby.

Going to events like these is one of my many attempts to ensure that my life will not be to consumed by my role as a mother. Of course, being a mother is my number 1 priority but I do not want to lose myself (personality and interest) just because I am not a mother. There’s always a first time for everything, I’m glad that I get to share my first experience to an event like this with Hubster and to make it even more memorable, it was in celebration of Hubster being one of the most stylish.

After an eventful night, the first thing hubster did when he reached home was play with this little princess. Looking at this scene just melts my heart. It's just like falling in love all over again. :)

Youtube Video of the FlashMob for Jason Lee

Below is the youtube video of the Flashmob for Jason Lee which was mentioned in the previous post:

Hubster turned 27 yesterday!

Hubster turned 27 years old yesterday (Sunday, 25th November 2012). I'm honestly thankful that he is surrounded with so many wonderful people and had almost all of his favorite things on his birthday.

Since he had a celebration for his instructor, Jason's birthday with his Sole to Soul Dance Company / Dance Crew (SDC) peeps, we decided to start the celebration a little bit earlier for the both of us.

The night before, we had a pre-birthday dinner at Hokkaido Sushi, One Utama where he ordered his favorite dishes. We had the Kani Avocado salad, this favorite sushi of his (tofu skin with rice, crab-meat and smoked mayonnaise i think), spider-roll and teriyaki steak. I would say that his tummy was very happy having had all those delicious dishes.

With his favorite Kani Avocado Salad

The whole time during dinner, he was talking about Hot Rod, his favorite transformer  character. I had a strong feeling that he was hinting for me to get it for him as a birthday gift. Of course, I got it way earlier for him. It was hidden in the storage room at his house. I played along and started asking questions. Truth is, I read about Hot Rod at Wikipedia (kinda because I was wondering why he was called Rodimus Prime).

After walking around One Utama, we visited Vhobby (a shop selling all these collectibles). I couldn't find the Hot Rod around so I pretended to ask for it so that I can buy it as his present. When the sales person told us that the toy was sold out, hubster's face changed. He was so disappointed that his eyes got all watery. You see, hubster is a very sentimental kind of person. He has always wanted the toy but had difficulty finding it. It was so unfortunate that when he finally found it at this shop, he had to stop himself from buying it because he needed the cash for our wedding. That was when I knew it would be the perfect gift for him. Being one of those cool person, he tried his best to remain collected and not feel disappointed. He tried to keep smiling but couldn't hide the disappointment from me. So, we went home and he watched the football match on telly quietly.

When the clock struck 12 a.m, I brought the present over to him and wished him Happy Birthday. A huge smile plastered on his face as his took the gift from me.

Me: Do you know what it is?

Hubster: I thought of if while we were walking back to the car..

Me: Are you sure it is what you think it is?

LOL! By that time, he could already see the logo of the box hidden underneath the wrapper. He then carefully unwrap the present. Just look at his expression in the picture below. I'm glad he love it.

Opening his present

*Priceless*

The next day, we had an early start for his birthday breakfast at Delicious with his parents and we were off for a friend's wedding.

That evening, he left early for a party thrown for Jason. Michelle organized the party and they had sessions to choreograph+rehearse for a flash mob. Hubster, together with Michelle, Jean and Natasha, spent almost a whole day to choreograph the dance. I've seen all of them dance before which was why I am quite certain that the flash mob was awesome and hope that Emerson will upload the video on youtube soon. I'ld very much like to see it. I'll share the link later on if the video was uploaded. From what I heard, Jason was in tears, flattered by the whole ordeal. They really put up a lot of effort to put the whole thing together and it was a success! I've attended a few of Jason's class before and could tell why his students would want to show their appreciation. After all, he is a talented and cool instructor. I've always enjoyed his class - both joining and observing. (He really is good OK. The reason why I didn't join his class was because of time restrictions (the role of a wife comes with household commitments) and also because I'm just way too shy to dance in public to work up a courage to join his class. I'm always the one standing right at the back corner in classes. Hubster used to say that if i could, i would prolly want to hide in the wall. I couldn't agree more.)

They also celebrated SDC's November Babies' birthday that night. Hubster's included and Kelvin surprised him with a Manchester United cake decorated with Gummy Bears! Those are two of his favorite things. They also made him this birthday card and I can tell that he was most touched by what Huey Wern wrote (SDC is better with you around- i think). Trust me when I say, Hubster is not the same without SDC. :) He enjoys being in the group and treasures each one of the members just like his very own family. It's great that he gets to share his passion of dancing with this group of wonderful people. Thank you SDC peeps for making Hubster a much happier man.

It must have been one of Hubster's lucky Birthdays because besides that, Hubster's favorite football team, Manchester United won the match and one of his favorite F1 drivers won the race. Yesterday was definitely his day and I'm glad that he had a good celebration.

Gillian Lee a.k.a. Baby G was not able to make it last night so she called Hubster to replace her class. Months back, Hubster choreographed a dance using Usher's Scream and decided to simplify it for the beginner's class. Unfortunately, the steps may not be simple enough as I had to struggle a little to cope (blame it on the muscle ache from my interval weight training sessions with my trainer-in denial mode). What I like about this choreography is there was a lot of those groovy moves that people used to use in dance clubs (dance clubs that play soul groovy music ok... not those remixed stuff where people look high when they dance). I guess it is pretty much doable if I paid more attention but knowing me, I'm easily distracted. The turn out was quite good. There were 8 people in the class (considering that it was a late night class 930pm-1030pm). Some of the Jiggy Monsters joined the class eventho it wasn't BabyG who was instructing. Even FizahSem who normally wouldn't go to the gym that late came just for Hubster's class. Thank you so much for your support! Both Hubster and I appreciate it very much!

Tama's Pose on Wednesday

Me: Why is Tama like that?
Hubster: He's going to sleep throughout the day...

Darn it! It must be nice to be Tama... Sleep and laze all day while we are stuck at work! Hmph!

Tama: Is Tuesday over?

Everybody hates Monday

Me: Why does Tama look so sad?
Hubster: Isnt it obvious? because we have to go to work..

Just another Manic Monday :(

Hubster's new hobby

To save time, Hubster's in charge to make the bed while I prepare breakfast for him. Normally, husbands would sulk when it comes to tidying up. But not mine. He actually finds joy in making the bed. Thanks to Tama (my zoobie) that is! Everyday, he will find a creative way of placing Tama. This was his set up yesterday! 

Say Hello to Tama!!!

There he goes...

And he's off to another gig... :)

Forever After?

I’ve been married for slightly over a month and yesterday, we celebrated our 4th anniversary together. However, our celebration was not like our usual dine out and spend quality time together this year. It was more into a family sort of thing where we broke our fast at home with family and went out to shop for Raya clothes with in laws. With our hectic schedule and time taken to satisfy both families (in law’s and own’s) plus a little side business to get extra income and hubster’s commitment to his dance crew, Sole to Soul Dance Company, we barely have time to do anything else. So, last night was our only chance to go out. How’s life being married would pretty much be the first question everyone will ask. No, I’m not going to write a post about my husband being a sweet talking loving kind of guy nor will I write any relationship advice (especially since I’ve only been married for 1 month and 11 days). As much as a girl would like a man to woo her all the time, my husband is not a sweet talker with me. I won’t be lavished with “I miss you”s, nor “You’re in my dreams” (clearly because Pixie Lott and Cheryl Tweedy reign his heart! hmph!) nor “I can’t live without you”s (he can't live without dancing and football.. Haha!!!). Instead, he is a joker who pretty much makes me laugh everyday. I personally think that is a good quality considering that I think too much and need to lighten up a little (OK, well a lot!). When I’m down, he will always do something funny or remind me that I’m his wife, which is why I’m special (and vice versa too). I can’t deny that there are challenges adjusting to married life. What’s important is that even if you think you are alone, God (In my case, Allah SWT) is always there for you whenever and wherever you are. Everyday I wake up feeling blessed with all the love that I get; and pray for strength, patience, prosperity and most importantly, our marriage to last forever after and filled with lots of love. :) 

My husband the Mean Joker

I've been going through Fay Hokulani's site and admire her figure. I expressed my desire to look as good to my friend, Adrian and his response was that it is pretty much impossible for me as if we look at Asians, the hot ones are normally tall. So, I told my husband about it. This was his response.... Ezry: xpe compared to anis n nayla u tinggi Sigh!!! Bertuah punya suami!
