Handwritten note

-

Today, while I was browsing through Mimpi Murni's Blog, I came across this amazing post. click here.
It really hit me how we don't write anymore. I mean.. handwritten stuff. Now days it is all about e-mail and messages either via sms, bbm, whatsapp, etc.

Do you still remember when you get snail mail from your pen-pal from all over the world or letters from your lover just sitting next to you in class? Last time, we even put powder on the love letter to make it smell nicer. Hahaha.. so cute. And i'm sure some of you has a  box full of love letters. The sweetness of this is we get to look at the letters 10 years down the road or may 20 years later. Even more ironic if you are actually married to your lover who loves to write letters to you. You get to show it to your grandchildren. How sweet is that? :)

Last time, we don't care how nice your handwriting was. We can simply write anytime and anywhere.. on a piece of chocolate wrapper or tissue paper, on our palm, or even at the back of a receipt. Now I can't stop smiling ... it brings back lots of memory.


If you don't know how to write anymore, here is very useful guide to expressing gratitude with style. I'll make time to write again. Lovelies.

Weekly dose @ PS Cafe (Singapore)

When everyone are enjoying long weekend in Kuala Lumpur, I had to get up early on a Sunday. But no complain cause I am flying to the city of Lion, Singapore. Well, i'm in Singapore for a week for work. It is going to be a busy week... and yet i am taking a few minutes... to post my updates. Had my lunch at PS Cafe, Palais @ Orchard Road . The ambiance is so welcoming and I can picture myself enjoying my cuppa coffee and the dessert. I was so full from my lunch and no space for dessert this time. Maybe I will make another trip before going back to KL. I love the interior so much, especially the tiles! I will post more pics next time. I only have pics from my BB now. I have a big mission this time..... to look for a handmade carpet from uncle shop (not my uncle ok!) at Arab St. This shop has all the lovely items from India. Nadia's fav item is the silk scarves. She even ordered a few...as usual. I dragged my colleague to follow me to shop before we go out for dinner

A new beginning

Every December, I will look back at my new year’s resolution. I didn’t manage to achieve all 2011 resolutions but at least more than half from the list. Being an optimistic person, I am thinking to shorten the list for this year. But does it really matter if you achieve 10% or 100% of your goals by December 2012? To me, what matter the most is the journey. Don’t worry if you keep on repeating the same resolution for 5 years down the road. Most importantly, how those goals actually transformed you to be a better person. Today, while watching 500 days of summer, I was actually thinking how to spice up my life… Not that I’m not happy with it but my brain just don’t know how to rest. As usual, I ask my best friend, what should I do to give some new colors in my life? She suggested for me to write a blog. I’ve been thinking about it for years but I just don’t have the courage to share my words and thoughts with strangers. After few minutes discussing with my best friend cum my consu

I can't remember exactly how many years ago.. maybe 4 or 5, made a plan with Nadia to visit Istanbul. We wanted to explore and understand Turkish life not as a tourist but as a traveler or even better as local. But the plan got postponed year after year..  Finally, my time for Istanbul come earlier than Nadia, and December 2012 is month where i'm fated to be in the grand Blue Mosque, understand the history of Ayasofya, drink Turkish tea and enjoy Apple tea, and most importantly, make new turkish friends. So I was there with my sisters during winter season. What to expect other than windy days. And the colors are  so dull. I'm not black, white and brown kind of person. More of pink, yellow, orange, purple, blue, and green. Haha.. yes. bringht and bold. That's me.  Great, it was raining as we walk out from the Ataturk airport. So I quick make my prayer to God, "God,  please stop the rain. I want to walk out and enjoy my first day in Istanbul". Then w
