Alhamdulillah , praise to God . To those who knew me , I am very sure that you know what was my occupation for the past one year . The normal reactions I received when my friends and relatives knew that I did nothing , except being a wife to the husband , were always in awe. Ironically when we had a job , we always not want to work . But when we were not working , we wanted to get ourselves a job . You may asked all the women out there , we are the same . Unless , you are a millionaire then its a different story . Well , I am moving towards that - my dream . Please don't laugh . heh .
I did not make any effort to find a job after Sisley until recently , when I started to get bored at home . I thought it was a great idea to get back on my feet , gain another experience , meet new people (colleagues , I mean ) , and have my own pocket money . This time , without having to spend with guilt ( im a spender so , i often get mr to buy me things which in the end made him mad ) . I am fated to be always recommended by my good friends when it comes to finding job . From Guardian Pharmacy , I was recommended by Aishah which I get to know Hana . And through Hana , I was offered a job at Leonard Drake Skin Care and Health Spa . The ex-trainer of Leonard Drake then recommended me to Yves Saint Laurent as a makeup artist but I didnt sustain for too long . Until Belinda ,who was a great friend that I knew during my days with YSL , recommended me to Sisley . Don't you think its like a circle of chain ? Needless to say , I am blessed . I thanked God for the path that he have made for me and I wished to thank to all those people above who have made a big difference in my life . Without you people , I think I will be jobless . Really !
I managed to send out a few resumes ,hoping that I could be able to be part of their family but luck wasn't on my side . Guess what ? Yes , you are right !! Another friend got me a job. Ida(my ex-colleague in Guardian , yes we still kept in touch !) and me had a good chat , when she suddenly wanted me to try the same company that she worked for six solid years . Without further a-do , I called and looked for the Hr Manager . I was accepted immediately after my interview . Alhamdulillah . Only God knew how I felt . It was the first day of Ramadhan . Berkat bulan mulia . Thank you so much to a great friend , Ida . Semuga Allah swt melimpahkan rezeki yang berlipat ganda kepada semua yang telah membantuku . Amin .
I am very much excited and look forward to a new chapter in my life , on Monday . To learn and adapt , is another thing . Most importantly , I am no longer a homemaker but a Nutritionist Adviser by profession . Thank you so much to everyone ! My prayers have been aswered , alhamdulillah .

Review - Hijri Chocs
Whats a must each time , Ramadhan comes ?
In my family , a box of dates is a must . It doesnt matter what type of dates but , it has to be on the dining table when we break our fast when the sun sets in . And when most of us ate one or two before having a drink or get our hands on the main dish for the day , I ate it on my last meal . I know it sounds funny to you but thats how I practised it ever since dates were introduced to me .
A few years back , Mum was trying to be creative when she actually made jemput-jemput kurma or they called it Date Fritters . It was really yummy especially when its warm and hot . So each time when I saw theres so many dates bought and brought ( some mosque do giveaways too during the month of Ramadhan )by my family , the thought of making Date Fritters always came to mind . Well , theres so many ways to do with that sweet dates . Apparently , Sutra magazine featured a recipe that involves dates too . Go and check it out !
Hijri Chocs have always been in my facebook friends list but never once did I take a look at their profile until when Diah Mastura told me personally how nice were their chocolates when I met her in person the other day . So when Hijri had an advertorial in Diah's blog ( a great avenue to expand your business) , I was moved by how Hijri made the chocolates . The pralines made me go Wow ! and I got crazy over the lollichocs . I know I am being chiidish here but there's a little kid in each of us , mah ..
To support our local business entrepreneur , I got myself Dipped Dates just to coincide with the fasting month . *yayness*
I loved the way the dates were beautifully wrapped and how it was packed with a simple box that was easy to carry around . How it looked inside , was this ;-

I tasted every single bit of the everything . From the chocolate, the date , the peanut . Because of the nice wrapping , I got to bring it on the go . Just in case I wasn't on time to break my fast , I can always put one to two of these dipped dates in my bag . How convenient ! And you won't know that I am actually eating dates . haha .
I just cant resist to order the pralines. Soon soon but not now as I am squeezing my tum tum for the Eid .
To know more about Hijri Chocs , I 'd suggest if you can take a peep here .
Let's support the local . Not just the local artiste but the entrepreneurs !!

National day , it was .
Initially it was supposed to be celebrating my only brother's birthday on National Day as he was born 2 days after the Singapore's Independence Day . I just thought it would be good to have a little halal sushi (birthday boy's fave ) dinner . Mum objected the idea for fear that there will be so much crowd everywhere since most Singaporeans were celebrating almost every entire place in Singapore. Ya that's Singaporean , can't really blame us because Singapore as what I known , was only 647 km2 . Yes a tiny dot as seen in the map . Therefore , we postponed to another day .
My family never had such celebration , really . I don't think I had one birthday party organised by my loved one until recently . What made me decide to have dinner this time round was because the birthday boy literally confessed on his facebook . Well , I shouldnt be self-centered hence the idea .
It was impromptu . I just wanted to jalan-jalan without spending so much . Text my dear sis who was staying just ten minutes drive from where I stay , to have lunch together . So we head to Arab Street , to fill our tummy with Hajah Maimunah's dishes but were pretty disappointed as it was close . Since there were a few cafes there , we thought we should just stick to Kampong Glam Cafe . It was as sedap as Maimunahs' .

Since there were a few cafes there , we thought we should just stick to Kampong Glam Cafe . It was as sedap as Maimunahs' .
Afterwhich we had absolute no plans of where to go next . Singapore is really boring , oooops ! So this place caught our eyes . Very much like kampong and went to visit rightafter.
ok now , presenting the Director and his madam . macam paham !!
hahahaha... Interesting place , right ? Well , we were actually at ....
Lerr ! Must be that's what you are saying ? macam tak tau pulak . We were glad that admission was free on public holiday , just like the Istana . Else it would have been ..
As the day was still early for us , we then head down to Geylang Serai . Where else , since Ramadhan is only 2 days away .
Lights were up and Geylang Serai didnt change much as last year .
And after so much fun , I managed to get myself something back home . Totally couldn't resist the temptation since its only 2 for S$15 ( ramadhan sale )
oh , and not forgetting the irresistable offer that First Lady had to give , 2 for $5.90 . Thus , I grab four pieces of shawls . The one in blue polka dot was my first love when I saw it at Bussorah Street . The friendly lady serves us well so I thought I should get something from her shop . Since its only $15. How nice am I . heh .
So yeah , that was my way of celebrating 45 th National Day this 2010 . Hope Singapore will have many more theme park , just like Diah Mastura wished , in years to come so that we Singaporean can have many great choices to go to . Again , Happy Birthday Singapore !! I am proud to be one !
;))

tress have chopped !
Like finally , after many many numbers of months . Why do I decide to head to the salon now ? Because its long and it got way too crumpled . Tangled to the extreme that I just felt like cutting that few strands off . You know , when one strand got tangled with another strand and another strand and it became like one big chunk ? I tell you , my hair is worst than that of a doll . I guess its partly my fault too , because after every shower , I don't practise combing my hair . I just let it be till its dry and i bun it up when its dry enough . Simple or should I say lazy ? haha..
All along I have never had long hair because I simply don't like and I don't think my face structure suits long hair . Ever since I got kicked out of my job ( read : being employee is never never safe ! ), I save all my penny not to visit the stylist for as you know, I am a hijab wearer . Which means whether I cut off or not , it doesnt matter much . It was until yesterday that I decide that I should join forces with Mr. to have a haircut . When I met Nesley ( i didnt know he was a salon manager until his card was given to me ) , as usual he asked what can he do for my hair . While he take a looked and touching my tress , he was shocked . He was wondering why was my hair in an absurd mess ! Well , isnt that the reason why I go to him ? To get my hair properly done and never tangled again ! Overall result , was a mere satisfaction . I actually expected more from him as he was from a high post and highly recommended by my ex colleague . Nah .. at least we have experienced it .

I actually expected more from him as he was from a high post and highly recommended by my ex colleague . Nah .. at least we have experienced it .
I just realise that it was a red and black affair for me .
oh ya , the funny thing was this . My appointment with Nesley was at 1730 pm and the minute I put my buttocks down to sit , Nesley asked me whether I could come back in an hours time . Me , being a nice customer , thought that it was alright as my hungry tummy already called for a dinner . So we head down to a Thai restaurant .
Among the three of our dishes that we ordered , we just love this one . Claypot chicken with thai sauce . Power !! Mr.was scooping the dry gravy until it was dry up . lol !
this one was green curry . pon sedaap , the gravy was thick and it was filled with generous chicken ( another chicken in the list ) .
Nowadays Mr kept ordering longan drink ;) at least he chose one , a healthier drink over quite number of dishes . And when placing an order, he got mixed up with lychee and longan . tsk tsk ...
So here's the aftermath . He don't really like it because it goes far too left . I mean the way the leading stylist ( by post ) styled his hair . Well , thats the first and the last .
Now , I am wondering when should I go for my treatment ( from package that already signed up for )which was left untouched by Anthony Hair Boutique . I must rang them up for an appointment before my sexy hair got tangled again ;)

LOves ANd PretTy MuCH hate
Since my blog read '' To know me is to love me '' , i guess its only appropriate if i can share with you more about me so as to serve the purpose of the overhead sentence . Therefore , i decide to share with you what i love , what i like and what i hate . So , here it goes ...
things that i love and like much :-
i now think that i am really a girly lady because
1) i love cosmetics from low-end to the high end ones , as long as it does wonder to the face , i love it . so this means to say , i love to make-up . yes , thats my all-time hobby ;) apparently there's three full bags of cosmetics ,which i think its time for me to do a check on them and discard or donate it to my sister . She of course , always have the priviledge ;)
2) i love to shop for heels . reason being , i am only 1.57m tall and plum haha so at least wearing heels make me tall and therefore slimmer . and when i walked , i walked with confidence . but the thing about me is , i always have blisters you see . especially when putting my feet on the new shoes . lucky for me , mr husband always standby plasters in his wallet ! oh ya , since its heels ..i always ensure that its really comfy for me to walk because i walk a lot with heels . of course on occasion where the jalan-jalan is on the beach or trekking , i wont be on heels la ...thats unreasonable right ? oh i am a size 8 . used to be 7 though but its more comfortable with an 8 . or even 9 , worst . depends on the cutting actually because i have a broad feet .
3) i love long maxi dresses because since i am a hijab wearer , i am at my utmost convenient when i wore dress . i just love the flow of maxi dress . and oh , my current obsession is jumper for now !! though theres a bit of hassle when i want to pee but i feel that its kinda cool . just because i wanna look cantik , i have to pay for the price .. ;) there was once when i actually took off about 5 minutes just to pee ..aiyoyo ..
4) i have this soft spot for shopping online especially when eyeing for shawls and shaylas . my all time favourite , as you know in my previous entry was Izann Mutual Desire and the not-to-miss underscarves from I-style . heh .
5) i love the camera but i wasn't sure if the camera loves me . lol . loves photography . i believe pictures will always bring back memories of the past .
6) i just cant go out without spraying perfume . it doesnt complete me . i have a few on hand now but my all time favourite are Chanel Mademoisselle , Chloe , Burberrys and Juicy Couture and oh , Stella Mcartney . perfumes and scents are really individual .
7) i have a sweet tooth . just couldnt resist ice-cream and chocolates and oh , durians ! anything sweet , that is . from those uncles along the roadside selling $1 to Ben and Jerry to even Baskin Robbins whenever i go Malaysia .
8) whenever there's the new edition of Chic , Sutra , Manja , Simply Her magazine , i will buy . me and mum are an avid reader of those . and when we get to pop over to Johor , we would definitely grab Nona , InTrend , Jelita , Glam and occasionally Impiana or Saji . From those , we were inspired by whats the latest trend be it from fashion to home decor .
9) i love to see beautiful ladies . from top to the bottom . just envy them . so ladies , if you happen to see me out there looking at you from top to bottom , you should be flattered . dont get me wrong , im not a lesbian ok . i love my handsome husband ..lol ! and im not one who want to carik pasal by staring at you gorgeous ladies , i just love to see beautiful creation by god .
10) now im pondering what else ?? hmmm ...
ok since i couldnt think of anymore that i love , i share with you what i dont personally like .
1) i dont favor vegetables . if can , i try not to eat . haha childish me !
2) will try many means of not pee-ing in the public toilet whenever possible , unless i have no choice . i just couldnt bring myself to go each time i see the bowl so eeeuuuw..... n even more ridiculous when you have to pay 20cents for entry but end up puking because of the "cleanliness " . terrible !!
3) bad service . i think most of us wont go to a shop or boutique when the service is really bad huh ? yes i for one , will never step in . no matter how delicious your food is , how gorgeous your apparels is but if i cant stand the service that the staff rendered , its a no-no for me . and yes, im very particular in service . i think we should always serve our customers the best even if they never buy . not just because i used to be in service line , i am ya-ya here but its just the fact that everyone loves to be treated nicely ,aye ?
4) when taking trains especially , it really annoys me ! pushing pushing as though its going to be the last train of the day . this is so the typical singaporeans acting ! haaaiyoh !
ok thats about for now , will update this entry should i remember what other issues that i dont like . no offence people , this is me . this is Rosniyati .

scouting , surveying , searching ..
for .. Bridal services!! someone's getting married la .. who , who ? its my dear Hanis whose tying the knot soon to the handsome Hafizh . i tell you , they are so compatible macam pinang dibelah dua . Not that i'm singing praises , just because she's my best friend but seriously they are ! We called them Double H , (not Triple H the wrestler ) because it's so obvious that their names come from the alphabet H . So lame , i know ok ;) they were lovebirds for more than 5 years and very much in love till now . Both also stayed the same estate ,coincidently too . Yes Sudin and Zaiton pukul botol !
As you can see from my previous entry , they just got engaged early this year and soon be a bride and groom insya allah by next year . i am so excited and too happy for them that i would tail behind to accompany them scouting for bridal services . didnt i told you before that i wish to be a bride again and i just love planning a wedding ! dont hesitate to call me if you need my services at a minimal fee ;) ( nola im kidding , but should you seriously want to , why not ? i would be more than happy to assist you ! )
ok so last week , we went to visit a few bridals which were
1) Sultanah Bridal
2) Zul Radi Bridal
3) Sanggul Bridal Atelier
4) Anggun Andaman
5) Chinta Weddings
And as you know , each one of us have a different taste , different views . So were we . But luckily for us , we both had the same taste ;) so no debate , quarrelling whatsoever you name it . Not just about bridals , we had the same taste for almost everything . From food to apparels to shoes to even make up . I think that was the reason we were real best friend . Each time we went out of the bridal boutique , we summarise what we both think of their gowns , makeup and services . Yes , we were particular in customer service . There's no point engaging a mak andam whose makeup was super cantik , wearing gorgeous gowns but sucks big time . It just ruin your day , you know !
Every bridal have their own uniqueness but by far , the bride-to-be was only convinced by Chinta weddings for their andaman n bajus . And we love Anggun Andaman's service by kak Nura who attended to us , despite her being busy at her desk as we both came without making appointment . Ooops !
Kak Nura was very warmth , super friendly and frank with us . She was a great listener because although both the bride-to-be and the bride-already (ehem ehem)was damn fussy , she totally understands our needs . Kudos to Anggun Andaman for having a great wedding planner like Kak Nura ! We were wowed by their decorations . Personally i loved the grand royal theme so much . To know how it might have looked like , why don't you go to their website here ! Hanis and family had food tasting by Anggun's catering and were satisfied by what they serve . So , i supposed she's engaging them to be her wedding planner . Totally support her of choosing Anggun !
It was only a while ago that I just accompanied her to meet Kak Lynn Siregar , owner of Weddingku Gallery , the very same person that turned me into a gorgeous one during my makeover last year . Both Hanis and me were mesmerise by her andaman and baju . Confirm plus chop , she's taking Kak Lynn service until to the extend that she changed her wedding date just to get Kak Lynn to doll her up ! Madness !!! And i couldn't agree more . KaK Lynn managed to convince us with her portfolio and her sincerity captured our heart . I am now glad that Hanis was super happy to get what she wanted all along ;) The right makeup , bajus and attractive package ;))
Next was our turn to meet up with Zack , the deejay that was recommended by my celebrity uncle Hamzah Adon . Too bad , Uncle Hamzah was not given 10% for every recommendation he gave . heh . Zack gave us an idea of what will be going to happen on the actual day itself . Not 100% because there will be surprises , we love surprises !! We were happy with Zack friendly service . Why are we so particular even to Deejay services because we just don't like the idea of engaging a deejay where he'll just be standing behind the set and playing songs and talked over the microphone . Hello !! I can also do that , you know ? So what we totally love uncle Hamzah deejay service was that he was funny ! obviously he is and was because he's a comedian . Funny wasn't enough being a deejay , it was his interaction with the guests that what we loved ! He mingled around , also looking for guests who would want to gave their little wishes to the bride and groom . How great ! Such a pity that he wont be able to commit to Hanis's wedding date as prior to that , there were other pengantins who took his service . But uncle Hamzah saved us by introducing Zack whose service were just as good as his . How do I know ? Trust . I trusted my dear uncle . Period.
Enough about bridals for now . I just couldnt wait to look forward next year .

Such a pity that he wont be able to commit to Hanis's wedding date as prior to that , there were other pengantins who took his service . But uncle Hamzah saved us by introducing Zack whose service were just as good as his . How do I know ? Trust . I trusted my dear uncle . Period.
Enough about bridals for now . I just couldnt wait to look forward next year .
