all marriages has its up and downs and we are definitely one of those couples that's still in the learning phase.. u know...trying to figure out "marriage for dummies" kinda stuff....yet, its kinda fun, challenging and exciting at the same time coz u'll never know what will come at cha' each and every single day...

we live in an apartment somewhere out circuit from the busy BIG city and having to do all kinda stuff together is such a great experience for us...from there we've learnt what are each other's interest, sense of taste in decorating, selections of foods to stuffed in the fridge, how your partner like his/her coffee to be and many more...trust me...it's an endless learning process bout your partner which makes it exciting...(at least i think it is..ngheee) having someone around you and connecting with each other is such amazing which i could not put it into words...the best feeling and experience ever..trust me!!!

Alhamdulillah..praise to Allah..i found you as my soul mate and it is you that will lead and guide me and our family towards Jannah...insyallah..amin..

we found love in a hopeless place

Yellow diamonds in the light
and we're standing side by side
as your shadow crosses mine
what it takes to come alive

it's the way I'm feeling I just can't deny
but I've gotta let it go

we found love in a hopeless place
we found love in a hopeless place
we found love in a hopeless place
we found love in a hopeless place

shine a light through an open door
love and life I will divide
turn away cause I need you more
feel the heartbeat in my mind
it's the way I'm feeling I just can't deny
but I've gotta let it go

we found love in a hopeless place
we found love in a hopeless place
we found love in a hopeless place
we found love in a hopeless place


Yellow diamonds in the light
and we're standing side by side
as your shadow crosses mine....

my "Chicken Chop Monster"..ngheee

assalammualaikum..

soo much for the title ehh...ngheee...

well, this is a story bout my lil' love life...after Arwah Kecik passed away, i went out with his good friend which also passed away in an accident few years after we declared as a couple..yes..it happened twice babes..god knows what i've gone thru those years...in between those incidents, i lost my BELOVED ABAH in 2000 and from that day on wards, i've promised myself to become stronger, more independent and to be the daughter that my dad will always be proud of..(i miss u abah..al-fatihah)

after all the dramas, i was then stuck with my ex-boyfriend for 8 years which i thought that he was the love of my life (not!!!)..aaahhhh...what a long journey ehh...the day i declared my independence day (young, single and back to being available..woot..woot) i never knew that it will change my life forever..this is when my "Chicken Chop Monster" story begins...

i was in my final semester finishing my honor degree when he first approached me..he was pretty slick...i didn't have a clue that he was sooooo interested in me all this time..we were classmates for 2 years, yet i didn't notice a thing..shucks..but i must say, he's bolt..a gentleman..he treated me differently from the others..i guess that's the reason why i'm willing to open my heart to fall back into love again...**blushed**..he sealed the deal on 29th Feb 2008 and promise to grew old with me and have tons of babies together...ngheee...i knew then he was the one..the first person i would want to wake up to and the last person i will see before going to bed...hmmmmmm....

every year on my birthday i'll get a birthday poster made personally by him and only him...he promised that i'll get these poster each and every year as long as we're together until there are no more space on the wall to hung up these posters..and yess....he kept his promise..i donno how he does it, but he's the only man that could ever touched my heart the way he does...his patience, devotion and sense of humor is everything to me..he loves me with all his heart and stood there beside me thru my ups and downs..he is my best friend, my teacher and my soul mate..he's my everything...

on MAMA's birthday last year, 2nd April 2011...we tied the knot and we're blessed with all the warm wishes and family support that we could ever imagine..now, we're still madly in love with each other and couldn't be more thankful for our precious lil' khalifah from Allah...our one and only Intan Camelia..

well ladies, and that is how i met my "Chicken Chop Monster"..mr. Cix..ngheee...

L.O.V.E at first sight..^^,

assalammualaikum...

yuppp...it's all about love......

growing up as a normal teenager seems normal to everyone..we went thru ups and down in making decision in life and end up taking the wrong turns (mostly) but we didn't even care much..it's normal guys...that is what teenagers do..ngheee..although i'm not that average kinda girl, i live life the fullest and never did regret every single turns that i took.

i used to be a "boyfriend is not my thing" kinda girl back then..i played soccer, rounders, galah panjang, guli, sorok2  with the boys back then..i'm the kind of girl that could climb a tree/get to the top of a pyramid 3 story high  with no fear..kacang laa weii..but it all changed because of  this one boy known as "KECIK"..

he's one of a kind and definitely a keeper..thinking of him right now flashes all the memories we had gone thru..he's all a girl could ask for..hmmmm...back then my galfrens called him "Mr. JTT" (like Jonathan Taylor Thomas hokayy..) my biggest crush ever...super cute!! he's smart, generous, religious and such a funny guy..i liked him alot...like alot ehh...he's the sweetest guy i've ever met..an angel in disguise..

but all that only lasted for 7 unforgettable months before he died in a motorcycle hit-and-run accident on 22nd July 1999..Inalillah...Allah loves him more than any one of us..but Alhamdulillah...i was so thankful to be given a chance to know him better than anyone else..his family and friends told me i was his First and Last love..god knows how far this is true..but it's enough for me to know that he had help me changed alot...

from a boyish kinda girl, to a ladylike young women i am today..(at least i think i am..ngheee) i started to join traditional dancing groups, and started playing more girly sports like net balls, hockey, hand balls, etc..i learn how to put on makeups and was a trend setter back then...all thanks to my sweet "Mr. JTT"...al-fatihah

-in loving memories of Allahyarham Hazry Faizal bin Husin-

like finally...ahakss!!

salam..

after keeping tones of unpublished writings...i've finally decided to publish my own blog to share this sweet lil' life of mine with my loved ones..it all started when i found my long lost "this is where i dump my junks" book in my office drawer..like how did it get there huh??!! that book has all my dirty lil' secret (which it will remain as a secret obviously!!), bits and chucks of everything that reminds me of someone and millions of unforgettable  memories throughout my teenage years until i found my MR. RIGHT..hihihi

sparing some time just to jot or even babble bout stuffs happening around me is pretty hard..especially when my lil' sweet pea Intan Camelia came along..ngheeee.. (i'll get back to that lil' makcik's story later)..till then, this is where my story begins...enjoy!!!
