Addicted to Caffeine

I started this not so amazing addiction to caffeine during my flying days. Sometimes when I had to endure the situation that called on me to be active for 11 or 12 hours there is no resolution except to take one of these. Yes most time my previous nature of work required me to travel on different time zone and limitless hours!!! And so that is when I acquired this found habit. I can go for more than 6 or 8 cups of coffee and yet still went to sleep soundly, that’s how great my body can work with caffeine..

:

However now the situation is different, I don’t go for coffee bingeing anymore because there’s no need for it. On a daily basis I will take max 3 cups but I tried to reduce the number occasionally. But there is not a day that I will forgo my addiction!!! Hehehe. My favourite of all time would either be Café latte or Cappuccino. The boys at Nachos2 knows that too well..hehehe.

I google up coffee and this is what It says…

‘Coffee is a brewed beverage prepared from roasted seeds, commonly called coffee beans, of the coffee plant. They are seeds of "coffee cherries" that grow on trees in over 50 countries. Green Coffee is the second most traded commodity in the world behind crude oil. Due to its caffeine content, coffee can have a stimulating effect in humans. Today, coffee is one of the most popular beverages worldwide.

:

Wow..stimulating effects huh..i guess that’s what keeps me going..hehehe. One day I dream of getting one of those coffee machine below (u know the one that can wipped up my cappucino and lattes without costing me a bomb everyday!!!), provided I have a bigger kitchen at home!!! I could imagine myself having that heavenly taste in my mouth during the rainy days and just watch the day pass by aimlessly…well until that day arrives I will be content to just stick to my 3 in 1 Nescafe at home!!! Hahaha…

Spring Cleaning?!?!

I’ve been planning to clear my scarf closet for quite sometime and had the chance to do so today. It'S been in a messy condition and I can never find the right scarf to go with the right outfit. So today seems to be a good day to do something about it. Yup like I said before moderation is not my best virtue and I guess the pics below prove it. More than often I would end up buying a similar colored scarf as I cant seems to be able to find anything given the chaotic condition of my closet.

:

After sorting out those that I need to keep and those I haven’t wore more than a year, I decided to giveaway the later to my bibik, mak ngah and mak andak. I think they deserve it the most. The main intention is to ‘sedekah’ and given the circumstances I believe they are the most deserving recipients. I’m a happier person looking at my now accessible scarf closet and that I managed to do something good for Ramadhan. Alhamdulillah.

For 'sedekah'

My Crafts Project Pt3

It’s been 5 days since Ramadhan started and today marks the 3rd day since Alif came down with Chicken Pox. Yes my hero is spending his school holiday at home. I was planning on taking him out for a while, somewhere less crowded but it looks like he’s going no where for the time being what’s more with the current situation of H1N1.

:

So the next best thing is lazying at home..hahaha. I pity him cos there’s not much activity he’s allowed to do even going to the playground is a no-no st d moment. And as for me I spent my time on a bit of crafting and I must admit it is a comfort being able to channel my attention and energy on doing something fun. It is a big change for me. I’m always the outgoing type and this new lifestyle is something I’m trying to adapt.

:

I believe this current change of direction is also due to the Ramadhan month where the outside activity is lessen to zero. But I’m determined to make the most of my time at home a fulfilling one. More crafts project in the future!! I managed to do these 3 items comprising of a photo frame and 2 tea bags giveaway. Something simple and require no skills at all but just a little imagination.

Shopping in moderation??

Ever since Ramadhan started, I’ve opted to quarantine myself from any unnecessary shopping and mall hopping. Yup I’m trying to confine myself from over spending and be thankful and make do with what i have. Yes sometimes I have to admit moderation is by far my motto, yet I cant contained myself from spending!!! So I guess this is a good month to start a good deed. Hopefully it will continue after the months end.
;

I’m learning to curb my spending habit and I hope and pray that I am tough enough to do it. insyAllah. But if in the near future there is an entry on shopping pls don’t hate me as I said before I hope to do it in moderation..so there will still be something that I need once in a while…hehehe.

'Tudung' for Aidil Fitri

Tomorrow i'm planning to go to…Ariani I need to get a few pieces of 'tudung' to be matched with my baju raya. I’ve never tried their collections before, previously I got mine from Munawwarah. But this year I’ll give them a shot. Mr Hubby please get ur plastic card ready..hehehe. Yesss I need to drag him along in order not to over spend! Never leave me shopping alone bcos it’ll be destructive!!! Kekeke.

Pics above was taken last year. The tudung was from Munawwarah worn with my Raya Baju kurung. Pls excuse the 'tembam' face..hahaha..

Afternoon Tea

Spend our sunday afternoon at home, too tired to plan for anything else. So we had this cuppies for tea.

:

Stop Whining!!!

Do u notice??? Some people spend MOST of their life complaining!!! I’ve heard it way too many times to ignore. They will start their day grumbling about the traffics on the way to work, upon reaching work they will again accused of too much work which btw is just part of their job ( despite nothing to do) they go for lunch and again dissatisfied about the food, come back to the office more grumpy and stress (for spending too much time on the internet or FB) wait till it’s 5.30..pack their things leave the office and again not happy with the traffic. Go back home got nothing to do whining bout nothing interesting on TV!!! Day in day out the same old story!!! Before the month ends again grouch about the salary that is never enough (despite doing basically nothing at work) and then started blaming others on their ‘nasib’. Well does it sound like anyone of us??? Yup it sounds pretty much like us. Maybe if in a day we stop to complained and be thankful and grateful for what we have god will actually take notice!!! Yes my dear friends be positive and perhaps that luck of yours might just change.

:

Money problem??? Who doesn’t face them?? Even the richest of men will still have not enough money and everything else that they spend their entire life working their a** for it!!! So if for once u think that $$$ will actually bring u more happiness in life..think again!!! I am one of those people in the category above but I realised it brings me no good..so I stop feeling stressed about EVERYTHING in life. Yes there are certain things worth dwelling upon but some are just a waste of time and energy. Would I care to spend my time thinking and bit**ing about the not so perfect friend??? I think NOT. I will not spare even the tiniest energy in my body to be bothered about that melancholic depressive person!! And will I be so upset knowing my neighbour just bought the mini cooper that I dreamt of for so long (and she looks HOT driving it) well..that is something I might ponder on…hahaha!!! BUT not enough to make me feel inadequate about myself.

:

So here’s to something more positive and worthwhile. The next time u feel dissatisfied about everything and anything please look at those not so privileged. Those people who would die to be in ur shoes, to have ur job, ur home, ur health and ur family. Those people who is thankful to Allah for every single breath in their body, or even a single scoop of rice or bread anyone could offer. Be thankful for who u are no matter how bad u think ur situation is for only god knows what is best for us and STOP WHINING!!!
