Today, my definition of:
BLISS IS
.. coming home to a calm, warm and heavenly-candle-scented room
after a long, hot, sunny Friday afternoon. And it rained just as I comfortably
snugged myself under that favourite comforter of mine for my afternoon nap.
GORGEOUS IS
.. this tailor-made dress from Syaiful Baharim, Plaza Damas
I claimed mine on my birthday.
SURPRISE IS
.. this pair of 5-inched patent wedges I told my mom
"Along dah lama suka yang ni.
Nanti lah, bila-bila Along ada duit semula, baru Along beli.
Raya ni tak payah kasut baru pun takpe"
(Translation [for my non-Malaysian readers]:
"I've been eyeing this pair for quite some time.
In time, when I have money again, then I will buy these.
I'll make do with what I have for Hari Raya this year")
in which she immediately criticized,
"Tinggi sangat tu, jangan beli dulu lah!"
(Translation: "Those are too high pair of heels for you!
If you must, but try not to buy them.")
when I accompanied her hari raya heels-hunting at The Gardens,
a week before hari raya.
For my birthday last week,
she surprised me.
FUNNY IS
.. Gamarjobat. It's amazing how they can make everyone laugh
without having to utter a single spoken word.
And how laughter sounds the same in every language.
ROMANTIC IS
.. a candle-lit supper for two at Bora Asmara
(I'm sorry but I have tried, a couple of times yet
I still don't find their dinner as good as their ambiance.
Not that their coffee and our dessert were satisfactory too.
And those who know me know that I hardly complain about my food..)
LOVE IS
.. waking up at 7am tomorrow (Saturday morning) for a long drive
to beraya at Supertall's parents' house.

misz_a:
Thank you, that is really very sweet of you.
let me remain a mystery:
Right? Never knew my mom (actually reads this blog) and was capable of such sweet surprises.
anonymous:
I HIGHLY AGREE WITH YOU! But the set-up too beautiful to not come again. Even if it's just for a cup of coffee or Es Jeruk Kelapa. Lesson learned: Have dinner someplace else first :)
ms nellie:
He hee, cantik kan?
Will definitely bring you there, any day.
The trip was fun as usual, nonetheless Kuantan is Superhot!
anonymous:
Three inches shorter, actually! When you are at exactly 5 feet, even inch matter, you see. He he..
I prefer way short dresses and skirts especially for they make me look way taller.
But sometimes I need long gowns and dresses for more formal and grand events. And I didn't wear any shoes nor heels in that picture. Hu huu..
the lazy turtle:
Thank you!
I can't stop wearing those wedges!
Sangat suka! Dan akan cuba untuk tidak jatuh dan terkehel buku lali sekali lagi.
dona & chi:
Datanglah bila-bila masa sahaja! Sekarang kita penganggur terhormat dan penulis blog sepenuh masa maka ada di rumah hampir setiap masa. Tapi cakap awal sikit ye bila nak datang, boleh saya bersiap barang nak masak untuk tetamu tercinta dan dirindui (walhal alasan supaya dapat lebih masa kemas rumah, hu huuu!
ping:
Especially for you, yes :)
Which Ping is this?
That other post is a bit too lengthy and IMHO wouldn't be as funny and effective if translated :).
Ninie... I've to agree Bora Asmara's food is not as great as it's ambiance. At the end, you kinda paid for the gorgeous place they have... me likey! ;)
