shoes, ramadhan and I

it has been, what, 3 years or so that i didn't get to go for my regular visits to pasar ramadhan.Studying abroad did cut you off from that privillege.Yeah, yeah i know the Brisbane(ers) had this Bazaar Ramadhan ala-ala pasar juadah kat Msia last year but STILL..tak sama laa kan..Mane lah nak dapat kuih onde2 di salut real kelapa.Or keropok lekor. Or goreng pisang nangka or pisang awak yg lembut dan manis.Dan macam2 lagi.But it was really fun though.Malaysian students helping each other out to prepare, cook and set up stalls. Some even sold kuih raya.Meriah in its own way. It was like we knew each other in our not-so-big community.Sweet sweet memories.Anyways, going to Pasar Juadah nearby my place is going to be my favourite time every single day,this Holy month.I was like a kid in a candy store with lotsa food on the menu.Rambang mata! Almost all of my favourite food is there.Thinking of setting my own list of menu of what to buy for each day.To avoid food and money waste.

Theres a saying that shoes tell a lot about a person.I am not really sure how valid this statement is but all i know is wearing nice shoes really make me feel more confident in many different ways.Its like your acting the characteristics that the shoes carry with it.This is not about me not being myself or faking it or whatever.I dont know how to express this but shoes do play a big role in my life.Which explains the boxes and many pairs of shoes that I own.Some I havent even worn yet.You should have looked at my mom's face everytime I went home carrying a(might be more than one :P) new box of shoes.Shoes are definitely addictive.As well as a personal rockstar.Heheh..Mind you, not everyone can afford a personal rockstar who effortlessly play your favourite songs with the guitar and all, over the phone without the slightest hesitation.Aaahh..Life is beautiful indeed.(Thank you, rockstar!)

3rd Sept 2006 - the day i got 'kantoi' big time at Gloria Jeans, KLCC


sometimes when u really really need to keep a secret, you'd blurt it out (without prior warning) and to your surprise, you're glad that you did =)


dang! faizal should win



i dont know bout u guys but i dig this one in a million show and i really really think and hope that he should have been the winner.Come on la!Suki???(What the..?)I personally think that faizal is very very talented. His voice.Whoaa~~ His performance on stage.Lagilaa.Terbaik ok.Remember his final performance?Mcm concert!!Gempak gempak.Why la why Suki??Ok her voice was good but Faizal's was way better.We need more singers like Faizal not Suki, honestly..Sigh..

::Najwa, your closet's inspired by the '80s ::

"No, we don't mean '80s in the mullet-sporting-massive-bow-wearing kinda way. But a fun-loving and sassy gal like you can't say the momentary comeback of leg warmers didn't make you smile at least a little.Something about the era of big belts, stirrup leggings, and dangly earrings gives you inspiration for your own closet. Whether it's the bright colors or bold patterns that inspire you, a rock star like you is all about making a statement that's all your own. And your love of the hairspray decade only proves that you're a girl unafraid to show her sass and wear her attitude. Who can argue with that?"



(This is the result when I couldn't open my Lotus mail and get on with my kazillions of work.Blame it on the technology! Muahaha..).

This highly proves my love for old-skool sneakers and peep-toe heels and big chunky accessories plus bright,happy colours and bold patterns like polkadots and the retro designs. Just the other day I bought this red and white polkadot shirt-dress at Sg Wang.That dress summarized what love-at-first-sight means to me! And believe me,it could happen over and over again (we are only talking about dresses here ye.No other living things are included). I adore Sg Wang to the max! Maybe the styles that they have in stores are just what i am looking for.Like the variety of groovy knee-length dresses and funky shoes + accessories. Much inspired by the Japanese streetwear I reckon.And I totallllyy dig it!!!! If only i could wear those styles to work.I'd be happy =)
