self captured photo of us on d 22nd itself

...to us! Yesterday marks our third year together, which is quite an achievement. Please don't get me wrong, long dating period doesn't assure anything but for us, or for me at least, growing closer to a person over a period of 3years isn't a very usual thing, what more sticking with each other thru thick and thin - definitely not an easy task I can tell you, so dear BF, thanx a bunch for d wonderful years we've shared and I can't wait for more to come, Insyaallah. and thanx also for accepting me for who i am despite my shortcomings. you've put up with a lot of things where im concerned and i truly appreciate d sacrifices you've made (and will make...hehehe).
d restaurant is located along mrr2 (towards ampang)

Enough of d mushy gushy stuff already. To mark our third celebration, we decided to dine at a nice and peaceful place called Intai-Intai in ampang, which really worked for us. The lush green ambience and serenity was perfect, which took me away from kl for a while (padahalnya kt mrr2 jam x ingat kat depan tu!!). Our eve together is definitely memorable ~ i will especially always remember d tall glasses of orange juice!
the surroundings

our feast dat eve

And oh, not forgetting our exchange of gift tis year. Among d 3 things I listed for my boyfie, we (he get to choose his gift) settled for a lappy knapsack. There's a story behind d gift hunting on my part but perhaps i'll share later. And altho I was willing to take a rain cheque for my gift, my bf insisted on buying me a pair of strappy sandals and I love em! (Thnx again dear)

d gift was worn on d day itself :)

my black strappy sandals i chose myself

from me to him ~ hope u realy like it

which one is nana?

today is nana's (farhana, my ex-housemate in shah alam) 25th birthday. *happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to nana, happy birthday to you!*. to nana, wishing you a beginning of wonderful years ahead, dont worry bout 'quarter life crisis' coz we're still young (nk sedapkan hati sendiri juga), and der are still lots to explore, Insyaallah....and many happy returns!

now nk kena rewind sket. over d weekend, it was another shopping spree for me, although i didnt actually get anything for myself, it was actually for father's day. jus a lil intro, my father plays badminton twice a week to keep fit, not d tournament kinda thing. so ive been planning since last month about what to buy him for father's day but one day he went out and found himself a nice pair of yonex shoes, maka rosak lah my plan. then i recapped his conversation with us about a nice bag his fren jus bought and so i found my plan B (badminton shoes was plan A). royal sporting house or its kind normally dont sell badminton stuff so i had to find a specialized shop downtown, luckily for me, it was quite easy.



d same bag lee chong wei (#1 male badminton player ranking in d world) uses for training


besides d bag, we also got him a matching yonex tshirt, wrist guard and ergo-socks (sume pun dh ergonomic skrg, but workstation kt office ni stil x ergonomic ~ hissh). father's day celebration was kept simple, so for lunch we had yellow cab pizza which was huge (imagine an 18" tire rim!).

now, rewinding further. last week on thurs i had another shopping spree, again not for myself. an office colleague just got a baby girl about a week ago or so, and since this is his 4th kid, we didnt bother asking wat he'd want becoz we assumed he already has all d necessities like cot, pram, walker, etc, etc. and so with d limited budget we had in hand and unlimited cute baby stuffs in d mall which made us (nadiah n i) crazy, we managed to fully utilize (exceed sket je budget tuhh) d money since d sale was still on.


my fave ~ isnt tis adorable? (bolster and pillow set)


d 3 boxes are hallmark range of bottles and food container, all are in pink, the one rolled and tied with a ribbon is a pair of pjs, and on top of d box is a baby's bonnet, and d one behind d boxes is d thermal bag for daddy to put d milk bottle and such



d pink thing tied to d pillow set is an "i love my big brother" bib, in front d rolled and tied with ribbons are 'monkey suit' and a dress respectively, and in d blue box is a batt operated fan for prams and far right are 2 pair of knitted socks


for d baby hamper, all stuffs were bought from isetan and parkson klcc. it was indeed challenging searching high and low for these stuffs becoz like ive mentioned earlier, our budget is very limited but dat doesnt mean we cant get nice things with it right? im no expert wen it comes to baby stuffs but it was no doubt fun. of course right after we were done choosing baby stuff, i had my round of retail theraphy which was of course 'funner'! after a long day at work, everybody could use a round of shopping rite?
