buka puasa..

I haven't had the chance to update this blog these few days - been busy with my project proposal.

Anyway..
I had a very nice buka puasa session last weekend with my loved oneS..(note the capital S..=P )..Went to JW Marriott on Saturday with Mr. S and to a restaurant at KL Tower on Sunday with my family..

Foods in JW Marriott was nice and plentyyyyy (*drool*) - 108 types of traditional foods served + the price was not THAT expensive - though it was a bit expensive to be honest (made a small hole in our pockets..hoho..)
I didn't have the chance to capture pictures on the foods coz my camera was not with me at that time + my phone's battery was running real flat..heh..what a waste! We booked the place quite late, so we didn't get the chance to have a place at the poolside area (which I reckon should be more lively). So all in all, food is good + place is definitely good + ambience is good also + price also very the good one..huhu..Thumbs-up!! Also good because I went there with the ever so lovely Mr. S..*wink* 

Since JW Marriott is located just in front of Pavillion, ape lagi, jalan-jalan in Pavillion lah *smile*. Didn't managed to shop because of time restriction, but managed to get a few necessity items from Clinique only. Though before that, this one Estee Lauder salesgirl really has managed to convinced me to buy their product.. But luckily, the idea of spending nearly RM500 in one go didn't struck me that well..huhu..After jalan2 buang duit tu, we went back..But yeah as expected, the traffic was damn heavy..shesshhh!!! Stuck in the traffic for quite sometime, so reached home quite late..Ape lagi, kena membebel la sikit dgn parents..hohoo..

As per Sunday, my family and I went to d'Tandoor (this is the right spelling I guess) at KL Tower, which served Indian cuisine. There were not much food served - only nasi briyani + nasi putih with less than 10 types of condiments. If you like Indian food or you would like to try something different, then the food served should do well for your taste bud and is good to try. Oh,forget to mention - The reason we went there was because it's my dad's friend restaurant, so t'was a complimentary dining over there..(free foods!!alhamdulillah..hehe..). One good thing about the location of this restaurant was that the surau is just in front of the restaurant (mmg sangat senang utk gi solat lepas berbuke itu) Eh, there was another food served which I missed to put in just now - curry noodles. The curry was nice I shall say. To sum it up, food is ok + location very strategic + ambience ok. About the price, I don't know. 

Well well well, I hope weekend like this could be repeated. How I wish I could turn back the time~~ *sigh*

Saying 'NO'

What's wrong with saying NO? Is it cruel for us to say NO to someone who asks for our help which we ourselves could not afford to do it?

A few days ago, a friend of mine called me up to ask for my favor in helping out with some charity event. I couldn't managed to attend the event due to several reasons:
  1. the timing is not very convenient - it's weekdays and after the office hour
  2. have less interest in going
  3. feel like being used up by the company who organized the event
Initially, I didn't confirmed with her yet coz I was still considering of going to the event. Yesterday was the day. That morning, my friend called to reconfirmed. Because I really was half-hearted to go, I unassertively said no and gave my very un-concrete reasons. She couldn't seem to accept my reason but yeah, finally she accepted it. I know I know it's for charity, but I dunno - I just don't feel like going.
The point here is 'Is it wrong to say NO?'. Usually, we say YES because we hope to please the other party. But what if we can't even do it? We might ruined what we are supposed to do and will let the other party feels dissatisfied with and the end result will go back to us where we will feel guilty. (Ouh, I hate that feeling!)
Anyway, a short article in this link will give you some guidelines for me and for you on how to say NO respectfully --> How To Say NO

Finally i am here!! phewww~~~

I've been thinking of blogging since ages but I always hesitate to do so..lazy would be the top most reason of all..heh..Well, i don't usually write, i read instead. People say that if you love reading, then you won't like writing and vice versa - at least some people believed in that. But some people love doing both..I don't know. I shall say that I am not that good in expressing myself, so it might be a bit difficult for me to express or describe anything in particular. But we'll see how that goes. Fingers crossed! ;)
