Spa Q
Lazing at home, I watched last weekend's Medodi and Nona. Then my eyes came across the Akasia's now showing series; SpaQ 2. It reminded me of my days when I was still in KL. After work, I rushed back home to watch Spa Q. Sometimes my sister-in-law joined in my room, watching while eating junk food.
And now, me watching all over alone... far away from M'sia, but still on the bed. Hehe...

Kebaya Sulam dari bandung
Embroided kebaya (kebaya sulam) is one of a kind of kebaya. The embroidery made by machine or hand made (jahit tangan). It is so famous in Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia. Nevertheless, it is quite pricey.
Here, I would like to introduce embroided kebaya come from Bandung, a famous place for textile. And it comes in three different kind of embroidery.
1) Sulam super
- the embroidery lies from up till down of the baju kebaya
2) Sulam timbul
- the embroidery lies on higher level than the fabric
- it enhances the floating look of the embroidery if you see it from far
3) Sulam biasa
- the embroidery lies on the same level of the fabric
And the fabric of the kebaya also comes in different kind.
1) sutera thai (thai silk)

Leggings
We had our lunch at Mughal Mahal, in Fahaheel. Both were too hungry to capture any picture. Thus, there is no still image as the memory of dining in the restaurant for today. The food was ok.. like other Indian restaurant too.
Later, we walked around Fahaheel, like usual, commuting between Al-Manshar, the small shops and Al-Kout. We ended up at Paul, sipping iced mocha and strawberry milkshake. We can’t help laughing at a guy wearing pleated Bermuda in green. Juma has one in orange, and I told him the guy actually wants the orange one, but he lost the pants to Juma. And he knew Juma is in Al-Kout now and he wants to steal it from him. Haha..
I got myself 2 pairs of leggings, one in yellow and the other one in pink, from Centre Point. I want to have colored legging eversince it hit the fashion scene late last year. At last! Juma got himself a shirt from H&M and a collar tee from whatever brand. I love today!
Tomorrow, Ainul will get engage with Azhan. I love them both. Hope everything goes well. Good luck my dear friends!

Much Awaited Day
We had a good breakfast. I made my favorite fried noodles. But the one that made me really happy was when he told me to get ready to go out. It had been awhile I’ve been staying at home. And it had been awhile I didn’t shop for at shopping mall. If before, way back in Malaysia, it could say that I hit shopping mall every another day. My weekend wouldn’t be complete w/o a visit to at least a mall.
As I was getting ready, he received a call from his boss saying that he needs to be at the rig at 6pm. It was 12 noon already. It means I have 5 hours to shop before we head home. I hate to a rushing shopping. I think everybody hates it. My mind can’t focus well as I will keep on thinking about the ticking clock. I really want to buy few things that I have in mind. And now, I don’t know whether my mission will be accomplish.
To the mall, I wore the tunic that I made by myself, the sock I bought at the underground shop and a sheer make-up.
We went to Marina Mall and I can felt my spirit just get back into my body. It was good! Surrounded my beautiful stuffs that beg ppl to purchase, I was happy. And again, I ended up shopping at H&M for 2 tops. And Juma was in good spirit too, and bought me a new handbag. What a day!
At night, we cuddled under blanket and watch dvd of WANTED. Complete. My day is just complete. And Juma left to the rig in the morning, after he was done with instant noodles. Another day alone at home...
