update at 1.18am..

Mood : sleepy, duh..

Assalamualaikum earthlings, how are you guys?.. for the non-Muslim readers of this blog, I'd like to wish you Happy Holidays!.. for the Muslim readers of My Great Life, I'l like to wish you guys, SELAMAT HARI RAYA AIDILFITRI, MAAF ZAHIR BATIN.. here's your e-card, since I'm too cheap to buy and snail mail you one.. lol!~ =P

hey hey hey, guess what?.. I've been doing some selling this Ramadan, helping out my cousin sell some of her kerepek raya, raya snacks.. 1kilogram for RM15, quite cheap since if you go to Tesco, they charge you RM18.. besides, the snacks I sold were from villagers in Ipoh, means they're handmade, not machine made.. think of all the love put into making them kerepeks.. lol!~ here's a picture of meh kerepeks..

most are muruku based, but there's an ubi based kerepek too.. and they all taste yummeh for the tummeh!.. I've been helping my cousin selling 'em since Sunday around 11.30am to 2.30pm.. I didn't expect to be paid or given any percentage at first, but my cousin gave me anyway, so hey, rezeki jangan ditolak!.. =P my last day of kerepek selling was today at 1.40pm, UUMs Varsity Mall.. I sold all the kerepeks that my cousin gave to me, around 40 packets.. my profit for the selling isn't that much, but alhamdulillah, it warms my tummeh to get em too.. I got around RM200, so that's an advance raya money for meh.. hohoho..

see mah happy face?.. (^^,)v

I've spent around RM70 already, going around buying stuff.. I have to save at least RM100, want to buy myself a new phone in the near future, Nokia C6.. it's wicked awesome siot!.. hohoho..

oh well, I'm off.. but before I go, enjoy this picture of me trying too hard to look cute.. goodnight awesome peeps!.. peace out!~

My saddest story regarding money..

Mood : memory lane

Khairi's second novel, "Cinta di Alam Maya" sucks coz it's too scary.. it's better if it was a sad story like this..

okay, it's not fully a sad story, it's mixed with anger a bit..

hehehe..

read to know..

*****

the year was 2001, I was young, about 13 years old, and was very active in Taekwondo club..

so active that I was picked as the Treasurer of the club, collecting money from the club members to throw a small get together and some eating among us members at the end of the year..

all the money I've collected were then kept in this owl bank..

hey, I was young, can't I have an animal for a bank?..

=DD

I was so happy to hold a position, to do something of importance..

every time I collected money, I'd run home happily and place it in my owl bank..

it's filling up quite fast..

till one day.......

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

it was a hot day..

I returned home..

everything at school was great..

my maths teacher gave very little homework, and my science teacher was on sick leave..

everything was perfect..

I was cooling myself in front of the television, watching Detective Conan..

my little sister, Wahida was eating some sweets, and offered me some..

she even had some of the expensive candies..

it was quite peculiar, so I asked her, where did you get this?

she answered, from our cousin, Din..

Din lives next door to us, and he's 2 years older than Wahida..

oh, okay than, guess it's not that weird..

maybe his mother just gave him an allowance or something..

so I ate the sweets without thinking further on it..

that night, after bathing and finishing my homework, I had the sudden burning urge to check on my owl bank..

I was scared that maybe Wahida took a few ringgit since she knew I kept all the money there..

I love her and all that, but one can never be too cautious..

so I took out the owl bank from my desk..

to my surprise, it was empty!

(o__0""

I started panicking, where is my money?.. who the fcuk took my money?!! damn it!

*yes, I had learn to curse since I was young, the downside to having many guys as your friends*

my first suspect was of course Wahida, with all her sweets and candies..

I bombarded her with questions, with my face trying to keep in the anger but failing miserably, which eventually got her crying..

yes, I was a bad sister for doing that to her but you have to know that I was young and pissed off!..

someone fcuking stole my money!!

yelling isn't something new in that kind of situation..

mum tried to cool me down when I burst into tears..

all the money, gone..

and it's not even my money, it was other peoples money..

I collected around RM50, which in 2001 was a lot for a 13 year old kid like me to get back..

my allowance was only RM3 per day..

how was I supposed to find money to repay back till RM50??

after cooling down, I asked Wahida where she got the money to buy the candies..

she told me, Din gave it to her, around RM5..

so she used that money to buy the candies..

then I asked her again, where did Din get the money?..

she said she didn't know, he suddenly got the money after we played 'kawen-kawen' in the living room..

WTF, in this living room??

in this house??..

the living room in this house where my desk was 4 feet away??

WTF??!!!

I was so fcuking pissed!!..

now I know the culprit how stole my money..

I admit, I cursed and swear a lot that night..

a whole lot of hatred for a small kid like me..

so the next day, I went to Din and asked him, did you take my money from the owl bank?

he said no, my mum gave it to me..

don't you fcuking lie to me! I know you took it!

my face was full of anger..

Din was starting to feel timid..

he finally caved and said I did, but I didn't know it belonged to anyone..

WTF??!

money that didn't belong to anyone??

money kept in an owl bank on a desk and out of side didn't belong to anyone??

that was bullshit right there..

I was angry, and I took him to see his mother where I told her of what he did..

his mother, my aunt who I hate, laughed it up and said, kids, what can you do?

keep them under control la bodoh!

she brushed his action of stealing my money as juvenile and made him apologize..

and that was just it..

she didn't even pay back the RM50 her son stole from me..

he fcuking stole from me!!

what kind of mother is she?..

the fcuking screwed up kind, that's what..

I've always hated that family, hence I stay clear from them until now..

now why is it a sad story?..

because I was 13, young and full on anger, and my own cousin, stole from me, while his stupid parents did nothing about it..

that's pretty sad right there, don't you agree?..

so in the end, my mum paid the RM50, and I slowly repaid her with housework, sister sitting, doing well in exams, etc..

all because of RM50..

uhuk~~

see, money is important..

*****

so what's your saddest money related story?..

share it with me by joining [this contest!]

and I'd like to listen to Hizami and Judiene's sad story regarding money..

and you can even make it in Malay..

hurry, the contest ends on 1st May 2010..

(^^,)

April, a month to be happy!.. (^^,)

Mood : happy!

hello April!!

you're so pretty now..

awww, with the hair pulled up like that, wearing that nice sunday skirt with the cute white tank top..

awww, so sweet!..

*ok, what am I blabbering about?*

I'm just here to welcome the month of APRIL!!..

wohooo!!~~

\(^o^)/

I personally love this month..

coz I turn a year older every 7th April..

some people don't like turning older, but I do!

wait, does that make me weird?..

(o.0)

well, on this month too, my mum and youngest sister celebrate their birthday..

mum on 2nd, which is tomorrow, and my lil sis on 22nd..

so we usually have a little celebration among ourselves with cake and a bit of party..

but I seldom get birthday gifts tho..

pity me kan?..

(T^T)

hehehe..

but this year, I got the best present ever from a friend..

well, technically, it's not my birthday yet, but he gave me an early birthday present..

he gave tickets to a wonderful experience no money could buy..

well, he got it for free and gave it to me, but the point is, he gave it to me as a birthday present..

and I so loved this present!!

and the most expensive one I might add, nearly 1k!

wanna know what it was?..

tadaaaa!!~~

2 tickets to SSII plus Channel V goodie bag..

awesomest present so far!

thanks my dear friend!

(^^,)

anyway, last Monday my family and I went to the last day of the convocation expo in UUM..

it was raining a bit and my mum got to use my HP see-through umbrella that I got for free last year..

it was the cutest thing ever!

well, it's supposed to be my mum, but a picture of me holding the umbrella will do..

hehehe..

so while walking around the expo area, my sister and I passed by the Streamyx booth..

the guy there was calling out to people, asking if they want free gift to come on to the stage..

so being a person who loves freebies, *miahahahaha* without a hint of hesitation, went up onto the mini stage with 3 other peeps..

I'm the one in blue talking to the guy..

to win, all I had to do was sing Isabella while crying..

easy peasy task that was completed by yours truly..

hahaha, muka tembok kan aku?..

=P

I got a TM notebook, which I don't even know when I'll use..

but hey, at least it's free!

(^^,)

and today, I got a letter from Kuala Lumpur..

it was from Bausch & Lomb..

apparently I did some survey some time back and they promised to give me a Guardian gift voucher worth RM20..

so, yeah!

now I can buy something for myself on my birthday!

wheeee!!~~

I hope the presents keep coming..

it's just a few days before I turn 22..

I haven't planned anything yet, will have to see budget and availability of friends for parties..

miahahahaha!!~

before I end this post, I'd like to wish

happy birthday to my awesome mother!

you're the reason I'm here now, the way that I am..

without your guidance and advise, I'd be lost in the dark..

so thank you so so much!

happy birthday okasan!

may the days ahead be filled with sunshine and daisies..

and may you finish your PhD soon!

focus and succeed!

=DD

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

goodnight awesome people..

part 1 :- if you want to be RICH AND SUCCESSFUL, click here..

Mood : I Am Rich and Successful


no, this is not any deliberate scheme or a way for you to make more money online or whatever..
just hear me out ok?..
I've just returned from a 2 day motivation programme called

"Intensif Mentor Kekayaan & Kejayaan"

or in English

Intensive Mentoring to being Rich & Successful

the moderator is Dr Azizan Osman, CEO of Richworks Resources Group and a Master Trainer..
you can check out the website here..
this is a really good programme, a way to see your true potential and how to grow yourself..

what I'm about to share with you is my tiny spec of knowledge on how to make you rich and successful..
but before you continue reading, know this..
all the content in this post, all the facts and research are not mine, they do not belong to me and I do not own them..

they belong to Dr Azizan Osman and his company..
this is merely me sharing my experience and a bit of information to help you awesome people in your life..

and also a way for me to remember about this in the future..
ok, do you get me?..
good..
so, we proceed..
(^^,)

------------------------------------

the first most important thing you need to know if you want to be rich and successful is,

YOU MUST BE READY TO CHANGE YOURSELF


maybe you don't know this, but our mind is actually a magnet..

no, the mind is not like the actual magnet where it will attract the opposite..
the mind works like this..
positive attract positive, negative attract negative..

simple isn't it?..
the more you surround yourself with positive energy, the more positive your mind will become and it will attract more positiveness to you..
so you must change yourself and be POSITIVE!
how?..


first, let me ask you a question..

after you pray, do you ask God @ Allah SWT to make you richer, to give you lots of money, to make you healthy and happy, etc?..

do ask Him for that?..

I'm sure everyone did..

but your request is seldom fulfilled or it takes a long time for you to get what you wanted..

do you want to know why?..

it's because your mind is confused..

you say you want to be rich, but every time someone asks to borrow money from you, you say you have no money..

when you say that, your mind believes that you have no money..

or when you see something you like, for example, Nikon D90, and the price is RM 4000, you say, "Woah, so expensive, I can't afford that!" which makes your mind believe that it really is expensive and you can not afford it..

the point is, you say you want to be rich, but your actions say otherwise..

so the mind is confused..

how to change this?..

simple..

(^^,)

if you want to be rich, act like a rich person..

no, it does not mean you have to go out and spend your money..

I'm talking about your attitude, and the way you say things..

here's some examples..

instead of saying, "I have no money..", say "I have money, but the budget is finish for this month, maybe next month.."

instead of saying, "Woah, RM 4000 is expensive, I can't afford that!", say "hurm, RM4000.. ok, quite cheap.. I'll buy this in 2 months time.."

when people say to you, "Najmie, you're so rich!", say "Alhamdulillah, I am.. thank you.. may you be rich too.."

when people say to you, "Najmie, you're so cute!", say "Alhamdulillah, thank you.. you're cute too.."

when you say positive things, your mind believes what you say..

and when your mind believes that you are rich, you will become rich..

and it does not hurt to wish goodness to others too..

the more you give, the more you get back..

so give!

---------------------------------

there are many more things I learned during those short 2 days..

and I want to share it with you..

do you want to know more?..

click my nuffnang ad two times if you want, click it three times if you don't want..

hahaha..

you guys are awesome!

you help me, I'll help you back..

(^^,)

Finally, Genting Highlands!!

Mood : No F**king Way!!

I woke up early on 11th May, Monday..
my alarm went off at 5.30 am, a wake up call for someone..
but I sort of terbabas and woke up at 6 am..
I made a promise to Amir to wake him up coz he had to go to work..
adoii, heavy sleeper rupanya my friend tu...
I called him from 6.04 am till 6.30 am..
I paused to pray Subuh around 6.13 am and continued to call him after wards..
he finally woke up at 6.30 and I didn't really know if he slept back or not..
Amir, wake up!!
hehehehe..
it's been awhile since I held the position of waking people up..
holding that responsibility makes me feel good sometimes..
so Amir, if you want me to be your alarm clock again, just tell me, okay?..
(^^,)
is it weird to like hearing voices of mamai people?..
coz I love it!!
adehh, weirdo alert.... (o_0;;

I took my bath and dolled up, but on a lighter tone..
I wasn't going to some function so I chose to go casual..
I finished by spraying some perfume on my body and headed downstairs..
my sister could see the excitement in my eyes, it was uncontainable!!

we finally left the house around 9 am and headed to Terminal Putra..
we got there around 9.25 am, and to my dismay, the queue at the Genting ticket booth was quite long..
it was a public holiday, I soon found out..
Abg Hafiz got in line and bought the tickets, RM 47 each..
our bus was at 10.30 am so we had plenty of time to kill..
so we rode the LRT to Wangsa Maju where we had breakfast..
roti canai with iced tea..
tasted great..
the great thing about going out with Kak Ijah, Abg Hafiz and Sakinah is, we're all crazy!!
hahaha..
we were LOL-ing at the table..
seriously, people were glancing..
abg Hafiz would tell a joke and someone picks it up after that..
aiyohhh, sakit my perut laughing..



breakfast is the most important meal of the day..


oiii, get behind the yellow line!!


you can't see me.. (^^,)


bored waiting for the 10.30 bus..


we finished breakfast at 10 am and returned to Putra Terminal..
our bus to Genting was already there but the door wasn't opened yet..
we spent the remaining minutes cam whoring..
hohoho..
I told you we were crazy people!!

we boarded the bus at 10.25 am, and the bus departed right on schedule, at 10.30 sharp..
I wanted to stay awake during the journey but I didn't get a good nights rest..
the weather was hot at night so I had trouble sleeping..
last thing I knew, we arrived at Genting Skyway, at the botton of the hill..
everyone loaded off the bus and went on our way..
the line wasn't that long so in no time at all, we were already on the gondola, heading for Genting, the City of Entertainment..
the motto or slogan has two meanings though..
"Fun at The Peak!"
*wink wink*
adehhh..
sorry mummy!! (^^,)

we arrived at Genting around 11.50 am, so loads of people were there before us..
there were laughter, screams of delight and horror, people cam whoring (us included) and also people stuffing their faces..
it was a great scenery now stuck in my head..
wohooo!!
time to ride!!
first ride of the day~~
alamak, I forgot the name of that ride..
alaa, the swing that goes around and around tu..
we rode that first..
can't believe some people are scared of that thing..
a girl practically buried her face in her hands during the whole ride..
I mean, what's the point of getting on the ride if you do that?..
adehh~~
me and Sakinah, we were flying, like birds, soaring through the skies..
kekekeke..



I think it's this way laa..


branded for the day..


no captions needed..


is the sky raining people?!!


next stop, Candy House!!
we took lots of pictures here, and also made a video of me and Sakinah dancing to SNSD - Gee, well, just the chorus part..
I'll try to upload it later, but it's quite embarrassing.
adehhh~~
after that, we continued cam whore-ing at other places..
and rode our second ride, The Flying Coaster..
it was okay..
I liked the way it made us fly in hoops but the ride ends abruptly, so kindda not fun there..
our picture didn't come out pretty so I decided against buying it..
save money for some other rides..


oii, no fighting laa!!


a crazy moment..


it'll be our little secret..


superwomen back from duty.. ahaks~


note : cam whore-ing can and will make you crazy..


look ma, I'm in London!!


when escalators take forever..


moving on~~~
we went to the Indoor Theme Park to find batteries..
what's the point of bringing a digital camera if you can't use it?
adehh~~
next stop, Imax theater..
it was.... boring~~
I nearly fell asleep.. sure the seat was moving, but the picture shown was boring..
big disappointment there..
the only cool thing about it was the 4D glasses..
hohoho..



taking our skills to the next step..


with mrs lucky bear!! Sakinah won it playing some game..


anyways, we decided that we were going to ride something that pumps up our adrenaline, something to get the blood running..
so we chose to ride Space Shot..
the line was actually quite long, but we thought we could make it..
argghhh, it was dem long man..
took us 40 minutes to reach the front line, and the ride only took 30.5 seconds..
was it worth it?
HELL YEAH!!!
wohooooooooooooooo!!
the rush of adrenaline was amazing, it was awesome!!
the second best ride I ever rode on in Malaysia..
I'm just getting excited talking about this.. hohoho..
Imma get something to drink now..
*runs to kitchen and drank cold water from the fridge, runs back to laptop*
the pictures turned out well so I decided to spend RM 25 on a picture and key chain..
but it was really worth it for me..
*heavenly sigh*


the long line...


the scanned picture I bought..


next on the list~~
we went to Dinosaurland..
perghh, gila bosan!!
my advice, don't even waste your time riding the boat there..
we took a lot of pictures on a little island there but not much turned out nice..
next ride, The Cyclone..
actually, this ride wasn't really all that exciting..
but we screamed our heads off anyway, to attract more people to wait in line..
crazy do what crazy people wants to do..
adehhh~~



killing time on the boring boat ride..


married couple~~


photoshop-ed..


before riding the Cyclone..


the hands on Abg Hafiz's watch pointed to 4 pm..
we had to pick up our pace if we wanted to go to Snow World..
time is really envious of us..
our bus back was at 6.15 pm so we gotta be at the bottom of Genting Skyway before the said time..
hey, no pressure there!!
(>_<)
the next session at Snow World was at 4.30 till 5.10 pm..
we had the time on our side!!
yipeeeee!!
we paid for the tickets, RM 17 each, and hurried inside to get changed..
Abg Hafiz didn't join us, it was just us girls..
we picked our coats, boots and gloves, and put them on..
the insides of my boots were wet..
Kak Ijah told me to wear socks, said that it would be really really really cold in there..
I said to her, "eleh, it can't be that cold. it's just some air conditioning. I'll be fine, don't worry."
but, boy was I wrong...
it was f**king freezing!!
dammit..
adoiiiii...
but we had a great time in there..
it was so cold that we had bear hugs 3 or 4 times just to stay warm..
but when I couldn't take the cold no more, I went inside an igloo (made of rubber) to stay warm..
we had a snow fight, tried to make a snowman, played the snow slide twice (I hurt my butt on that thing), and played the slide at the snow hut/cottage..
since I don't know when I'll be able to go to Genting again, I requested for a photoshoot from the FujiFilm photographer..
it costs me RM 16, but it was worth the memories.. (^^,)



the scanned RM 16 picture..


freezing people.. hug us please!!


after the coldness, we ate the free ice-cream given by the people there while wearing wet shoes..
well, mine were wet, I dunno about Kak Ijah and Sakinah..
hehehe..
we dashed out and made our way to the Genting Skyway, getting lost a few times along the way..
the ride down in the gondola was a lot faster then riding up the hill..
I wonder why.. *ponders*
as usual, we took pictures..



self-portrait..


uii, what's this?!!


we arrived at the foot of the hill around 5.40 pm, locating the nearest surau to pray..
good thing I can perform Jamak..
we boarded the bus to Putra Terminal at 6.15 and slept all the way..
I thought Ibu would come and pick us up, but we returned home riding a cab..
costs RM 7..
mahal laa~~
we arrived around 7.30 pm..
I think I heard the azan for Maghrib prayers from the nearby mosque..
the last thing I remembered was lying on the bed, talking to Amir on the phone..
what were we talking about?.. dh lupa la..
then everything went black..

Kak Ijah woke me up around 9 pm, telling me to shower and come down for dinner..
with heavy feet, I pulled my towel from the clothes rack and strutted to the bathroom..
took me about 30 minutes, washing and scrubbing myself clean, all the while revisiting my recent memories in Genting....

I had another hot, humid and sleepless night..
