Kris Allen wins!


my favourite American Idol wins the show! although i think Adam Lambert is a better performer(for the competition), Kris was always my favourite. i think he has his own uniqueness in his performances and he's soo cutee! i love it when he sang 'to make you feel my love' and his own accoustic version of Kanye West's Heartless. way to go, Kris!

i just came back from JB (UTM) attending a short course on Herbal Product Formulation and guess what did i make..


a collection of cosmetics!

ok bukan exactly buat sniri la but we (the participants) do it together beramai2. "apa yg penting..kerjasama!" (haha wonderpets). those are body wash, cologne, massage oil, hair gel and slimming cream.

we also did foods. buat kordial,jem and coffee too. haha. the idea is to use herbs in the products. and i did learn a lot. the khasiat, the process, the methods, the formulation, everything.

during the course, i met a few of the researchers there too and i kinda get the idea of what they actually did there. mcm interesting la pulak. they even invited me to apply for a job there. tp tak tentu if i can get into cosmetics punye department la.

i am still hoping to get a job in the personal care industry cuz lg selari with what i want kot. being a researcher there mcm more to academics but i'll think about it.

apapepun, agak puas hati i went to this course. i did learn something. :)

Because You Loved Me

The best song by Celine dion i dedicate to my late mum.

For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love i found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through through it all

You were my strength when i was weak
You were my voice when i couldn't speak
You were my eyes when i couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when i couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything i am
Because you loved me

You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand i could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and i stood tall
I had your love i had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe i don't know that much
But i know this much is true
I was blessed because i was loved by you

(chorus)

You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you

(chorus)


Happy Mother's Day, Ma. I miss u A LOT.

May u rest in peace. Al-fatihah..

selamat pengantin barruuuu..

ruby finally got married!!

yeap. from all us (UTM coursemates), everyone never thought she would be the first. Ruby the very gile2 type, gedik sket, maintain vogue tp she's not a typical girl. beleive it or not, she joined PALAPES mase kat UTM. and that's how she met Jerry, si pengantin lelaki. dari 1st year they were together, x sangke sampai ke kahwin dah.

the wedding was nice although delay lambat gile. supposed sanding 1.30pm end up sanding around 3pm. tp we all tunggu jugak semate2 nk tgk ruby bersanding. the baju was gorgeous, the pelamin was simple but sweet and ruby of course look so damn pretty.

so ruby, congratulations on ur wedding! we're all sangaaaat happy for u and kiteorg smue jeles ok!

charice the diva

charice pempengco.

i adore this young filipino girl. she's only 16 years old but her voice is superbly powerful and she has a very good showmanship. i was impressed the first time i saw her sing on Oprah's show. she started singing when she was 4 and started participating in lots of competition since she was 7. go check out her videos on youtube. thumbs up!

surprise surprise.

so i quit my masters. yeap u read it right. i quit.

i'm sure the big question is 'why??' kan.

well, it turns out this is not what i wanted to do. plus, when i registered before, i didn't think it thru. i think i decide too fast without thinking what really it is all about. and at that time, i was really just looking for any opportunity for me to just quit my job. bcause i hate it. except for all the good ppl la kan.

so far, i've learned that in chemistry there's several professions. research officers, quality control and formulation chemist. see, i'm more into formulation chemists. what i realize is i'm not into research sgt. or at least not now. it's complicated really. research is more into developing new things from whatever ade on earth ni. i think formulation have to be learned thru the manufacturing process and experience. the rheology, the cleansing properties, the foaming properties, yup these are what i want to learn. senang cite, by working in the industry. i also gonna attend the short courses on formulation at UTM. the masters programme there too kinda relate a bit to formulation. gonna find out more about that too.

i know. by now, ppl will go like, "macam2 la hana ni" or " rugi gile siot". well, i beleive i did the right thing. i'm not gonna waste 2 years doing something i dislike. and i don't see this as giving up as some ppl see it. i see this as choosing my career. if i'm wrong,..well.that's something i don't wanna think about right now. we have choices rite. life is all about trying and experiencing new things anyway.

as for now, jobhunting!! i know right now agak susah seeking for a job. ah well, pikir positive je la. while jobhunting, i read a lot about personal care products. trying to learn about the market and ingredients whatsoever. at least i'm doing something!

my advice to ppl yg terfikir nk amik masters, sile pikir betul2. don't do masters bcuz u don't wanna work. don't do masters bcuz u wanna have masters. don't do masters when u don't have a project in mind. and u gotta have a lot of passion if u wanna do masters. trust me. i've learned my lesson.

till then, wish me luck!
