Growing up, you have been shaped to not shows your weaknesses in order for you to be success. You’ve tried so hard to build a wall around it. Never shows that you’re weak. Share your concern with your family and your loved ones, but not with others. Trust no one, but believe in your family. And love your partner fully. It will makes you happy. But there is a drawback. If any of those two criticize you, then you’ll be very vulnerable.

You felt the wall collapsed. You felt weak and cornered. Instead of happiness, you’ll see a burden. Instead of truth, you’ll smell lies. Instead of love, you felt sympathy. And worst, even it seems near, you’ll feel a far.The relationship felt shaky and you don’t know what to do next.

But you have the opportunity to fled away. To a new place, being among new peoples. It doesn’t take you long enough to forget the hatred, to forget the humiliation. But it has a prize to pay. You are now miles away from the persons that you held dear. Once in a while, you regretted your decision. However, you know deep inside this is better for everyone.

But now, it happens again. Will you run away again? Or will you stand on your foot and fight?

Synopsis: You can read it here My Other Blog

My review:

A love story; a nice, touching one. The story mostly revolve around Holly’s life after Gerry’s death. She went through her life following each instruction given by Gerry in form of notes that he had prepared before he died. It is very sweet, especially the part where Gerry actually remembered to book a holiday for his wife so that she can enjoy with her friends. This is simply very touching.

AS for me, after reading the book, I think i need to appreciate my partner more…how I am so lucky to have someone loving me and I can love him back, with all my heart.

Luv u bb… ^_^

Synopsis:

Based on a true story, The Painter of Shanghai tells the captivating tale of one woman’s journey from a life prostitution to the art studios of Shanghai.

My Review:

This novel surely a must read, especially for girls. Those who felt they can’t do a lot of things due to their surroundings. A very well-written story. Easy to understand. Once you’ve start reading, you just can stop. You will felt a bit ‘attached’ with the character.

Pan Yuliang, the main character. She seems to be a very brave woman. Her courage is no doubt deserved the attention she gets. The story do tell me one thing. What happen in the past should not be the excuse for you to stop moving. Life must go on. Obstacles are meant to be broken.

After all, that is why my name is Zalifah. It means, always move forward. So I should be! It is time for me to reclaim back my ship. I’ve neglected it long enough.

So year 2009, i’m going to try my level best to turn the chart upside down…muahahaha. Owh, by the waI have started the plan way back in January.Just did not put it here.

January to March progress?

- I’ve lost 1kg, ya..nothing much. But at least there is something for a start.

- Comparing my body measurement back in Dec 08, i have lost approximately 3cm at waist (wooohhooo) and 1 cm respectively at other places. In general, hips, butt and arm…hahaha

Even though the accomplishment is not that high, however I’m happy. And it is good enough to motivate me to lose more..wooohhooo. By the way, my weight has started decrease to 51kg since early Feb, since there is no changes for the whole month, it is worth to praise..rite? ahahaha…

Well, i’m talking about career. Yes, your job. The job you’re paid for. Have you ever been in a situation where you felt lazy to go to your office? A bit dull during meeting? And not as active as the first month you’re there?

According to Aristotle, “Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work” . It is true. But what will happen, if the table turn the other way round? Is the work not perfect? Personally, I would think it is at least near to perfect. But the outcome won’t be the same.

How to know that you’ve lost the interest?

1. You get tired easily – Well, it is easy to see. Once you have lost interest, you might felt that the job getting harder. And it will require more energy. Thus, you’ll get tired easily. But if you look closely enough, the amoun t of job is the same. Why? Let’s go to item number 2.

2. You will lost the interest to explore new things – Without interest or passion, you tend to remain in the safe ground. You lost the urge to try new things. This will make things even worst, because you will end up doing the same things over and over again. After a while, you will get bored. Worst case, you become a dead wood. No company that prefer to keep a dead wood. Keep that in mind.

3. You will become demotivated – One of the strongest motivation of all is our interest and passion. Without this, most people will get demotivated. It will soon become a burden to the carrier.  You will felt that going to work is just a matter of doing what your boss told you to. And wait for the salary by end of the month. Sooner or later, there is no clear line between you and your photocopy machine. Trust me!

In the end, these 3 invaluable emotion will crushed your career. By the time you realise it, it will be too late. If you know you have lost interest in what you’re doing currently, it is best to sought for other alternatives. Or take a few minutes and think of what is the real things that you sought for. Is it money? Or is it your life?

P/S: I’m still wondering whether I am at the right path for my own career life…

Eventhough I felt regret and upset for not going to their wedding, but I am happy for them. Gosh, all my girlfrens. They are so beautiful!!! Well, their husbands handsome to. Browsing thru their wedding photos, I felt relieved, happy for them. However, there is this weird small feeling deep in my heart that I don’t understand.

This weird feeling. So deep, so small yet a bit disturbing. Am I jealous? I think so. I should be! Cos they have found their happiness. I’m still unmarried. In a relationship, but unmarried. I have a career. I have my life. But all seems not enough. I’m getting older, but marriage plan? It still blurry path for me. I’m not sure if I ever get married also. Aha!!

The time will come, I still believe it will. Just the minor problem is, will I be able to wait for it to come? Waiting for the door to be opened and finally step into the “other world” with the rest of my frens? The path is still blurry……for the time being. And I don’t have the strength to lighten it. At least not for now, that for sure.

To all my frens that got married… CONGRATULATIONs!!!!!!!!! It’s an accomplishment of life!! Muakkksss

I’m not going to complaint about the musolla, cos it is big enough to accomodate many muslimah at one time. Nice and comfy as well. I just don’t feel right about the user behaviour. This musolla has a door (of course there is, or else how to come in you will think. Alright i have to mention the door since it is closely related ok?) Imagine in a close room, and you preparing to get your prayer clothes off. You have to face the door cos the qiblah is that way. U just remove your scarf, so your hair is exposed. At that exact time, someone coming in. Okay, its not that i have a problem with her coming in. The problem arise when she (the ignorant) hold the door quite long and open it widely. I was WTH??? Can you close the door please (In my heart) cos i can see people walked pass by the room. What happen if there someone looking into the room?

So deeply in my heart i was pissed off. I’m angry to some peoples:

1) The ignorant. Can’t you just come into the room as fast you can? It not like your ass does not fit though the door. And does you really need to open the door as widely to the maximum opening? I can’t see that you’re as fat as me!! Why can’t you just simply gets to your logic and think of other peoples in the room? We are not for displays. I was really pissed off.

2) The hypermarket management. Why on earth did you choose this room to be the girls? This room is facing the passageway and it is really inconvenient. Especially when ignorant peoples like to open the door damn wide. The boys’ room however in the other hand is  facing the emergency exit. No one is lingering at the emergency exit right? So here, the boys getting the privacy and girls don’t? Do i smell something inequality here?

Well, that’s what i thought yesterday. Just a note to who ever reads this. Next time you want to open any girls room, please think of others privacy. Don’t open the door damn wide and PLEASE close it as fast as you could.

Last week tried the Mary Kay Acne-Prone product. I got a 3 days free trial. The result? Yeah, promising I would say. It does not make my face felt dry (surprisingly) but my beloved boyfriend said there are some changes. I do not know really if he lied to me or he just saying it to make me felt better. However, thanks to him i ended up ordered the product. Too late to say anything now dear, I already ordered it. (Bet you regret giving me a green light ya?) The product cost me around MYR220 (oopss…RM220 ^_^). The beautician (I like this name ehehe) promised me the product will arrived either next Monday or Tuesday.

So, let’s see what will happen… I’ll update here once I’m satisfied or dissatisfied with the result ya.

Update!!

NOv 25 (Monday) – Received the product today. There goes my rm220…gone with the wind..ahahaha
