hello you back!

I know I had been keeping mum for over half a year. I am around. Only that laziness has steadily crept into the system that I just don't feel like blogging anymore. Remember when I first started this blog and was having all this dreams of making it big as a blogger, and being invited to all those glitz and glamorous events? Reality check, I am so bogged with work now that I don't even have the time to update my CV! (not that I wanted to)... I am really happy where I am, Alhamdulillah. Maybe I have finally found a place where I really feel that it's worth slogging the hours for, even if the rewards aren't as amazing as what I was used to getting. Allah knows better and may I live under His guidance all the way.

We did a bit of traveling earlier this year. Well, it was more of a spiritual journey because we went for our Umrah trip. :) Alhamdulillah, it went really smooth and though we may have encountered some very minor hiccups, it was all good in the end. Syukur to Allah for giving us the chance and rezeki. It was pretty impromptu. Wasn't something that we really put into planning. But I guess when it is a calling, just follow your heart and go. In sha Allah He will help you with the rest. We went with Ustaz Don by the way under Tabung Haji Travel. It was indeed a privilege because not only did we get to perform our Umrah and visit Medina to convey our Salams to Rasulullah SAW, but we had the chance to listen to Ustaz Don giving his ceramah too. Alhamdulillah.

I need to head home now. Breaking fast at in laws place tonight. Meanwhile, do enjoy some pics taken from the trip!

well hello there!!

I've been on silent mode... and for a very long time!

Well, not really... I've been around. Busy with loads and was away on a fantastico holiday. :D

How are you peeps? Doing good I hope. I know I am. well, maybe not all the time but  yes, Alhamdulillah... pretty good. life's been good. Syukur!

Thought I ought to share some pics of my recent hols with you readers. We were in Paris last month. A trip planned so many months in advance. And you know what, I think I did not go on hols enough. I love Paris! (like big time!). I thought I would love the UK more but no, I just love Paris!!! I love the people, I love the language (I actually put what I learnt in uni to good use), I love the weather (okay, UK has the same weather too so 'touche') but what I love most about Paris are the buildings! The scenery is breathtaking in a very romantic way. Sigh... The guys are yes, very good looking. Even the guy manning the elevator up the Eiffel. But you cannot deny that the French are damn stylos without having to break their necks doing so! (A method I need to learn, and fast!).

Enjoy the pics though! We'll catch up again soon yeah.
