Here's the last part of our wedding event in Kuala Terengganu. We went for outdoor photo shooting at Pura Tanjung Sabtu http://www.puratanjungsabtu.com which places old wooden houses and currently being taken care of by YM Tengku Ismail, one of the Terengganu's Royal family member. Special thanks to digitaldome.org who introduced me to this wonderful place. I wouldn't have known of its existence if it wasnt because of him! (walaupun sgt dkt je dgn kampung ku)


Zillions of thanks definitely go to Fairuz, our official photographer of the day (yes, i really mean for the whole day! ) We love all your shots! You may visit his brand-new-looking official site at http://www.avicennastudio.com

counting down the days

it was gonna be our first date as an engaged couple earlier, fariz called n said hes gonna pick me up for dinner.. so, as usual i would wait quietly at home until he gave me another call that he's already downstairs at the parking lot..

then ring2 it came, so i went down as i hunted for the tan w*ra aerobacks that fariz used to drive in, but i could see none! until.. i saw someone very familiar waving from inside a very nice pearl blue C*ty n that was HIM! i was like OMG! whose car is this..??!! hehe sorry honey, its not like i didnt believe it, but it was a really huge surprise to me, a very pleasant one though!

it was lovely, simple and cute...


count all the ladybirds that u can find

finally made it to my beloved home country.. amidst the chaos in all UK airports and the ultimate excess baggage which would have costed me GBP500+ what can i say, lady luck was really on my side alhamdulillah...

i'm back from another trip probably the most worthiest that i ever had.. istanbul- a beautiful city that lives its history.. it's not that i'm the history-type of person but you could really see it here.. the people are friendly, the historical spots are all within reach by walking, the bazaar is really grand and the views are just spectacular, no words can describe



once known as constantinapole, sultan mehmet II the conquerer took over the place from christian byzantium in 1453.. the great church of haghia sophia was converted into a masjid by his order.. in 1609 sultan ahmet khan ordered the construction of another masjid directly facing haghia sophia to be called by his name- sultanahmet or also known as the blue mosque. this is also the mosque which inspired our own architect Dato Baharuddin upon the design of masjid shah alam. ook now, enough of history

another very good thing about turkey is, u dont havta worry about getting halal food here because most of them (if not all) are muslims.. pegi je restoran mana2, semua boleh ngap! and then there are hamams, the sufi's whirling dervishes (which i doubted), the sound of azan, apple tea in its 'biggest' glass.. oh damn, i never really could capture them all.. so here are what i've got.. enjoy!

it's been a while since my last entry.. maklum la.. busy.. lepas exam pun busy.. busy keje, berjalan-jalan, kejar flight etc2.. so here are some that i'd like to share.. maleh nak cite pepanjang.. lagipun org kata, a picture is worth a thousand words, rite??

tho there's few things the pics cant tell.. like how me n fedy wouldnt miss a single ice-cream booth to check out the solero prices, ranging from eu1.20 to eu2.50! giler cekik darah org2 spain ni.. tau lah tpt tu panas! unexpected changes in plan.. like getting a 16-hour journey on a bus from granada to barcelona instead of a sleeper train.. thats even longer than the flight back to malaysia, tau? and not to forget, lucky chance of gettin accom upgrade from a dodgy hostel to en-suite single bedrooms too bad we missed mezquita in cordoba.. so i hope there's a next time... how does another trip to andalucia across the marrakech sea sound?



special thanx to my buddy, fedy for making this happen! also for being there for me thru all the thicks and thins..
disculpa, muchas gracias, i lap u!
