YAY! album alaf baru!!

assalamualaikum and good day mate!

haritu i showed my hubby my old pictures, pictures from school days, from highschool days, PKN and matrix days and it was so fun!

we laughed at my 'phases', and i had many!! zaman tomboy, zaman spice girls, zaman harry potter, and ooohhhh boy, i looked so 'cute' back then.

cute la sangat!
hahahaha!

one of my photo albums =')

tapi sayang since dah guna digital cameras and memory sticks, pictures end up in the computer..
i think sebab kita dah biasa just tangkap and save dalam computer that we think it's better this way.
truth is, masa my laptop crashed, i lost a lot of pictures and it's sad sebab a lot of my memories are piled over new ones that the old ones become forgotten that i wished i printed them out and make a photo album for my universiti days!
wuwuwuuwuu...

haritu i was looking through our wedding pictures in my computer, and i wanted it to be printed out so bad sebab i nak tunjuk my kids, my grandkids and whoever else la sebab come to think of it, takkan la my computer nak hidup berpuluh puluh tahun kan?
and penat la nak transfer masuk harddisk la, burn dalam cd la hape la, coz let's face it. it'll get lost easier than a photo album.

i lost more pics throughout digital camera years than zaman camera kodak!

ALHAMDULILLAH I FOUND THE PERFECT SOLUTION!!
and that's why i wannna share this with you memory keepers!

Foto Zzoom ada photobook and oh gosh i love it so so much!!



ok here's a screenshot of the website, the directions are easy to follow and the categories to download sangat la cute!


i actually made one for myself, and i used the D.I.Y punya =)

tadaaa!

so nanti ada this pop-up where we get to choose which size we want and dia dah siap ngan price =)


so this is what my album looks like. to choose the pictures and arrange them is soooo easy!
bila bukak the software, dia akan keluar directions and stuff so ikut je =)

the photobook uses a layflat technology so it's very kemas and from the samples i've seen and held, the quality is good too =)

the best part about Foto Zzoom's service is that they can send the album straight to our home! tapi kena add on the postage la to the price.
we can choose either nak pick up at the Foto Zzoom store nearest to us or get it sent over to our place.
convenient kan!

payment method pun online je =)
30% off for 1st photobook too!!

so i'm really really happy to know that we can relive the photo album days and keep it for our younger generations to make fun of. hehehe! 

they have a contest too where we can win Redang trips (for 3 entries) and iPad Mini (for 2 entries)! just head on to their Facebook page and enter the contest!



just fill in your details and gambar photobook kita, and that's it!



tadaaaa~~



i can't wait to make more photobooks!!
and good luck for the contest! you can check out the entries here!

bersama BFF; Kotex Memberku Auditions!

assalamualaikum!

so the other day ada audition event held by Kotex called Kotex Memberku Auditions.
it started from Kotex Memberku Digital Contest on facebook some time ago, where participants register at iKnowMovement facebook app, and they just upload a photo of themselves with their friends that exudes confidence and put a caption about how friendship builds confidence in 30 words! then they get voted to become the 31 finalists and go to the next round, which is this!

pretty straighforward; those who came for the audition, came in teams!
what they had to do was dance in routine that was taught by the choreographer there.

i wasn't there but my friend went to experience the whole audition process! rugiiii tak itootttt!!!

she said they first learn their dance routine along the Kotex Memberku Hawa theme song all together, then they auditioned team by team.
they have the same routine but they were given a few seconds to come up with their own freestyle moves!


there were 20 teams in total, and they were separated into 2 batches.
and it's so endearing to know that all the teams consists of tight-knot-friends!

ada yang university students who have been close since highschool la, ada long distance friendship, ada mothers who are cool enough to join in (with their kids participating at the sides!! CUTEE!!!)!

biasalah kan.
kita always need support from our loved ones. even i need support from my BFFs, macam bila nak berubah, bila nak start business sendiri, dan macam macam lagi!
without them, idea susah nak dapat, motivation pun low, confidence level pun mesti low, pastu mungkin i won't be where i am now pun. 

teringat dulu, masa my friends and i mula mula start kerja; how we used to text each other merungut pasal kerja, cite pasal the environment and workload yang susah kita nak adapt.
but alhamdulillah, we helped each other out, supported each other, and now! semua kerja macam pro je. hehee! we became more confident with ourselves!

so bila tengok the auditions dengan participants yang sangat sporting and cool, boleh nampak and rasa that they have the confidence and positivity because they have their BFFs with them!
=')
i know that feeling!! wuwuwuww!! (rindu my BFFs!!)

oh and since this was an audition, ada la judges!

oooh they look seriousssss!

the judges are Shahrul (the choreographer) who checks on participants' steps, moves and expressions. then there's Latifah who checks on participants' confidence level when they're in the limelight.

my friend enjoyed herself watching the auditions and she said the participants did really well and were confident!
looking at her pictures, i can feel that they were enjoying themselves!

they're all smiles and laughter! =D

these ladies are up for the Grand Prize which is to appear on TV with celebrities and RM5000!! ANDDDDD they get 1 year supply of Kotex products each!! and of course, they get publicity coverage =D
*All the best babes!!*

Kotex is all about empowering women's confidence =) check out what they have to offer at their website.


Kia Rio Challenge!

assalamualaikum!

hubby and i like to check out cars when we're in the car. 
time tu je la dapat usha anyway =p

my choice of cars sume macam cute cute. i like small cars than normal sedan.
so hubby always pointing out "how about tu?", "yang tu?" when he sees cars he thinks i should like.
guys. hehehe!

i think Kia Rio is cute and i've checked out some videos about it too =p
i like the awesome design and features.

so few weeks ago, by awesome chance, i was invited by Kia to watch this social experiment at Sepang Gold Coast.
Kia left a Rio unattended on theKK roadside along the beach with buntings and stickers to prompt random passer-bys to test drive the car. only a few people stepped into the car to test drive it and took the opportunity to win RM100 by answering a few challenges given to them through an iphone that was left in the car!

the Kia Rio, parked and ready to be test driven

oh, the best part is, they get RM100 when they've completed the challenge!!
jealous!!

but it's aighhhhtt! it was so fun watching them all do the challenges anyway!

i laughed so hard when they had to do the harlem shake outside of the car!!
SERIOUS COMEL!!!



in the end, they get to experience driving the Kia Rio, and they get RM100. kalau i la, i bawak balik gak the car =p

check out the video to see the whole thing!

hope there's more of this 'social experiment' thing.
i wanna be part of it! hehee!

Beauty stuff: Hansaegee mask & makeup!

Assalamualaikum gorgeousness!

so today i have several beauty products to review!
weeee!

all products are from Hansaegee Nature!

first up, the High Definition Pixel (HDP) Pore Stamping Charcoal Mineral Mask =D
of course, before wearing the mask, cleanse the face and pakai or wipe the face lightly with toner.



jeng jeng! the mask is black too (like the packaging!)

this mask helps tightens the pores and blackheads, and restore skin balance. so siapa yang ada masalah pores or blackheads, the mask is good =)
just use it about once a week for a month, in sha Allah ada improvement =)
after removing the mask, let the remaining essence and moisture absorb into the skin by patting le face lightly, and then continue on with moisturising or whatever skincare routine kita =D

as for me, i put on my moisturiser and then went ahead with another range of products i get to try: the makeup line!
it's called Vacci Luxe Collection! btw, the reason I used the mask before applying my makeup is because after the using the mask, make up goes on smoother and stays on longer =D

ok sorry gambar agak the perasan wan, but i just want to show the makeup effect on me =P
it's light, natural, and makes my skin look healthier and glowy (kan?)
ihiikk!

here are the products i used!
1. 410 Pearl Orange Blusher; 2. 410 Orange Lipgloss; 3. 21 Natural Beige Liquid Foundation; 4. 13 Lavender Powder Pact; 5. Brown Eyeliner Pencil

honestly the choices of the product colours are different from my usuals. i just thought orange is such a nice colour, and it was worth the try!
the orange tinge gives a natural tan as a blush and the brown eyeliner makes my eyes not bigger but noticeable. au natural gituuuhh!
hehe =D

ps: the blusher comes with the brush, and the compact powder comes with the powder pad =D

check out the foundation's texture! on the skin, it feels light.

and this is how the compact powder looks like on the skin. i added extra so that nampak la sikit. heee.. i chose Lavender, but it doesn't make my face putih macam geisha la =p
love wearing it sebab it smells good, feels good, and it protects!

the makeup is washable too so no need to use makeup remover. nak solat senang je, just wash it off! =D
oh! the powder and foundation ada sun protection! how awesome!!
the powder ada SPF 28, while the foundation ada SPF 36!

so to those yang suka makeup, just pakai the foundation or powder is enough as a sun-shield and as a plus, the makeup are all mineral based, thus it creates a smooth base and allows skin to breathe better. people with sensitive skin or acne will be just fine wearing them =)

there are more makeup stuff to choose from, just check it out here!
since the makeup line is new, they are giving a promotion! with every purchase of the Vacci items, we get a Beauty Clinic Mediheal Ampoule Mask worth RM10.90!
woooot!

have fun choosing your makeup!

Samsung Galaxy S4 Launchhh!

assalamualaikum!

last weekend my hubby and i went to Berjaya TImes Square to check out the launching of the new Samsung Galaxy S4!

since i've already checked out some of the features beforehand online, when i get to touch it, use it, and see it myself, rasa syok woo!

teeheee! muka takleh blah =p

there were so many people! nasib baik i sempat main main ngan the phone kejap!
weee! sempat try out the dual camera function!
both front and back camera are really in good quality! you can see the vividness of the colours, it's as good as a compact camera.


see the huge crowd? masa ni the VIPs were officially releasing the Samsung Galaxy S4!
even Liyana Jasmay and Awal Ashaari were there!
sad tak dapat pictures of them.. they were so quick!

anyway, the launching was really havoc! 
macam macam performance ada! 
ni the band playing awesome beats! bedetum detum jantung i skali!! ahaha!

and these violinists, THEY WERE SUPER COOL!

and then, just when i thought the whole thing dah habis, these kids came out of nowhere and started dancing!
kelakar gak tengok the girls nya bags swinging about when they were dancing =p

DAH HABISSS!!!

all in all, it was a fun launching coz it was filled with so much performances and i've met so many people!! Kakak Syazwani Hamid, Viruspadu, Penmerah, Aida Sue, Faliq Fahmi, Sayesayangiz, Sepet, Ceeramoon - ha ni semua blogger/internet celebrity yang power power! sila berkenalan dengan mereka! =D

Samsung Galaxy S4!

assalamualaikum!

pernah tak rasa bosan main game sorang sorang?
one of the reasons why i malas nak download games on the phone is because it's so boring main sorang sorang.
rasa cam loser gila.
haha!

tapi Samsung Galaxy S4 ada Group Play where the phone can connect to multiple devices nearby to play games, share music, documents, photos etc etc!

so imagine, kita boleh main game bersama sama, tengok movie sama sama, haaaa! kan best!
lelaki macho macho pun suka =p

weolls can also pasang speaker together to get a good sound

pastu another thing about Samsung Galaxy S4, dia ada Story Album where we can organise the pictures ikut events and even choose different layouts and themes for the albums!
i think benda ni sangat berguna sebab then we know, pictures ni taken where and when and we can customise ikut mood event tu!


gambar gambar untuk satu event boleh dikumpulkan

and then just put in one story album!
lagi kemas!

all in all, Samsung Galaxy S4 is not a phone yang jadikan kita selfish, tapi jadikan kita orang yang sharing! =D

multi tasking guna Samsung Galaxy S3 mini ;)

assalamualaikum =)

last semester i noticed that i've adapt back an old habit i had when i was doing my degree.

punya la i thought being more matured and all the real life experiences would squash out that habit.. tapi SALAH!

heheheee..
dulu masa exam ke, test ke, quiz ke, apa apa la yang requires revising, i will pasang music ataupun anime series =p

and last semester, eventhough tak seteruk masa zaman buat degree, tapi the moment i bukak buku nak revise, masa tu mata and my mind takleh focus, badan rasa restless, tak sedap duduk.
bila duduk rasa tak best, baring lak.
baring tak best, menyiarap pulak.

tapi bukan posisi yang buat rasa kekosongan jiwa untuk belajar, tapi rupanya ketiadaan distraction.

i don't know why, but i seem to be able to catch faster when there's a distraction rather than when in complete silence.

silence makes me sleepy, even dalam library, i akan take a nap, walau dalam study group ataupun sorang sorang.

heheheee..

last sem masa finals i pasang anime while studying, and it surprises me how it's still my effective way of capturing.
ini bukan untuk semua, saya tau.
my friends; ada yang kena read out loud apa dia nak ingat, ada yang kena tulis balik everything back on new sheets of paper, ada yang kena pergi tempat yang sunyi, ada yang kena makan sambil study.
macam macam ragam!

so now musim test again, and the urge to watch something while studying is, of course, back.
and with Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini yang mampu multitasking, i dapat study on the phone (download je lecture notes) and pasang video on Pop Up Play at the same time!
sebab sekarang takde study table macam masa duduk hostel, so i study anywhere.
=)

*contoh* following le map while watching a video!

*contoh* watch movies while emailing!

the phone is convenient in size anyway. tak berat, big enough to fit my palm and the 4inch screen is really good for the eyes. sedap mata memandang la! hehee..
apart from the feature yang i penah cite in my previous post, this phone is capable of doing so many more things to make our lives just easier and practical!

check out more info at their website here, and i'm sure you'll fall in love with it too =)
