Press the button-> HAPPY


I am completely at peace.Took leave today ( the goodness of Friday) and feel myself becoming more and more domestic.I cooked,did my laundry,sort my things and here I am blogging a day before my bff ties the knot tomorrow and another one next week.


Sometimes I owe myself to wake up on weekdays without any hassle to get ready to work and up for non related work agenda and to do list in my mind.Trust me,it brings nothing but sheer bliss and piece of mind..The day when I am having my time.It supposed to be the week when everyone in the office is a little bit distracted by end-of-the year fever.Running up and down,meetings all-day-long,preparing for next year business plan as economy seems slow.


As for me,boss still calling me updating here and there(despite being screwed).Lets keep it calm and another off day on Monday (well,I promised him to be in the office in the morning).Hehe.Being a work-a-holic,its time to chill and be positive in anyway.Just recent,when the Group announced increased in 3rd quarter profit,we were so relieved.Of course the NPL not effecting me since none from my account portfolios involved.I am looking forward to hear great news on the bonus of course.The list goes on and on.


I have spent my time with nice people who are smart,driven and like minded in the office and outside.Life is too short to spend time with people who suck happiness from me.I admire people who make my day little brighter simply by being in it..I truly live in the moment although sometimes I still have my break down moment whenever relationships issues hit me.I have given in all everything to commit,yet,I failed.I stop trying.


I appreciate what I have, in value.Being so grateful for the goodness that is already evident in my life especially job,friends and family brings me a deeper sense of happiness.Mum always reminds me,"You can't get what you desire,but you get what you deserve".It makes sense.The hard time ever being happy in relationship is only part in life.I have to focus and appreciate what I have now.I miss being pampered as a girlfriend and spending time at the mall walking together.But screwwww thattt!!


What often screws us up the most in life is the picture in our head of how its supposed to be.And the reason so many of us give up is because we tend to look at how we still have to go instead of how far we have come.I have experienced the most awful tragedy in my life which took me ages to get over it.The relationships episode I involved were pathetic as much as I hate it so much.I cried a bucket every time it popped into my mind.The moment when I turned to be the most saddest person in the world.


Life is a journey,not a destination.The priceless gift Allah has granted me after He took away my relationship will always be the courage to move on.The courage to smile back and be positive.The opportunity to be on track and ability to laugh and be happy in anyway.Every day,I wake up to think its going to be great day and I must have great attitude.It leads me to great experiences.



The next step now is to press again the button -> happy.Happiness is an option,so choose to be happy.Never let someone else stop you to create your own happiness.

Oh joy!


I fully believe in surrounding yourself with people who are like-minded, but also who challenge and inspire you to be bigger and better at what you do. To have found that in friends multiple times over is something I am truly so grateful for. well, then, it's meant to be...

This past days have been awesome week besides intermitent work days ! It's pretty funny seeing the traffic is so clear.
How excited to get up when the sun starts to ever-so-slightly, begin to shine a little bit brighter and drive to work without having panic attack of " shit I'm late"!


 I have been so packed with weddings and engagement as well as BRIDAL SHOWER!

I love to organize the bridal plus baby shower whenever friends are about to celebrate big things in their life.Since I have embarking my HAPPY project,everything is constantly like a peanut.So thankful the fact the girlfriends are all up for the celebration.


With all this excitement over the weddings and engagements, here some pics to share and will upload more once I transfer everything.

Greatest Pleasure

When you have been using the same car since 2007, the pleasure of driving your 22nd Birthday gift and spent so much time together through ups and down(especially when the car broke down,tyre went flat), you don't fancy to drive another car. 


But as much as you love the precious gift ( which so many memories) instilled,I must bear car/machineries are depreciating when it grows older.When dad told mum he wanted to change my car,I refused.Of course,I am not the one who pay for the monthly instalment but its just I think my car is still in good condition.


 google



I spent this past weekend at home thinking to consider my parents offer after 3 months.Mum wants to opt for Honda instead of Toyota.I wouldn't mind any car as long I can afford to pay for the fuel since they are paying for monthly instalment.I travel 60km per day to office and my job requires me to go for site visit and meeting.So I am more comfortable to drive fuel-saving car.Mum dragged me to Honda show room last week in PJ which I didn't expect her to be so sweet and in the same time persuade me to change my 5 years old car.


When I first entered the show room,I was literally frustrated to see new Civic model.I didn't fancy the new design.It's not my type at all.I mean, they totally cope the back design similarly to Accord except for the lamp.




 google


And to top it off, there was City model park next to Civic which I was fancy to see new design although some might say it does look like Proton Persona.I just think City is my favourite besides the sporty design ( I can imagine myself like mak cik (aunties) driving Civic).


 I ended up seeing City model, took the short test drive and spent my evening admiring Honda City.Mum was cringe looking at me so into the car than the initial plan to buy me new Honda Civic.She rang dad who was in Kelantan that time.



Mum - "Papa, your daughter wants City instead of Civic.She thinks City suits her better.".


Dad- "Why?I thought we prefer Civic.It's bigger than the VIOS. Can we go for Honda Insight instead?"


Me ( took the phone) - "Pa, I do think City is way suits me than Civic.I don't prefer Insight.I just want the same car like my Vios or else,I don't want to change any car until I afford to buy my own Mini Cooper."



We hung up.


and days later, we booked the City car for real.


I couldn't have imagined spending my last weekend with my-so-many-memories car. Hard to believe the car is out by next week.


It is just around the corner, but I've been thinking, I should have demanded for Mini Cooper ( well both disagreed). Plus the monthly instalment for City is pretty much the same like my old car. Atleast they can save up some $$$$ for my future.*talking about future plan*

Sports


Ahhh getting up early to get to the gym is my favourite way to start the day. If only because I know that our post-workout coffee relaxation session awaits us. They make the working out...worth it.

I have to admit that I miss being sportswoman.I used to play numerous of games back then.10 Years after leaving high school,the only sports I play regularly is Futsal. It's only on the rare occasion since I join the Bank.

 I find it to be the best to join some sports activities rather than only stick to my gym session everyday. Usually, to me, it feels like it's the most boring routine to stay indoor exercise.Engaging in vigorous and sweaty sports/exercise triggers the release of feel good chemicals in the brain - serotonin,adrenaline and endorphins and has been shown to greatly improve mood.Regular exercise helps to reduce depression.

That was until I got inspired by my dad who asked me to get involve again with outdoor sports,out on the deck,in the sun.  I thought it was the perfect opportunity to get involve again in sports .So, just recent,when the Bank organized the internal Volleyball tournament, netball and futsal tournament, I decided to buckle up and go for it. Syukur we were champion except for netball, we won 2nd prize.

The combinations of various departments in the Bank made us win! And they were all so incredibly great .I could really mix it with them although some of them have been in the Bank for zillion years and experienced.That's what makes it so awesome.


THE MIXED VOLLEYBALL TEAM






THE FUTSAL 






I've grown up with football / soccer .Dad is so passionate and used to play football for entire life until he had to stop playing due to health condition.It's something my dad and I have shared in common and something I plan on passing along as a tradition onto my future children. Well of course,they can play Barbie( if all of them are girls).

Hahaha...I might consider to ask them to join cheerleaders team so they'll be supporting the other sister playing soccer!
