Now that the event was over, i just can't wait to show off the colourful pics to you! hehehe...i wore a colourful punjabi suit, in green and pink! haha...

The event went so smoothly that we were all so happy in the end of the day eventhough we were so tired! Working under the oh-so-caring, cool and laid-back Project Manager, we would never thought that she is a mummy of 3!!! Best giler kerja with u Kak Nor!!! Sayang u lah!

This will be my last event with APV, since i'll be leaving for another job offer. With the Media Launch over, at least i get to experience working under Kak Nor's wings. hehe...

"Congrats on the successful Media Launch, now i wish you and the team a very GOODLUCK for the 2 weeks show..."

MWAH MWAH!!!

Yuna

She has a voice that soothes and calms anyone who hears her sings. Some say she sounds like Norah Jones? I say she sounds like Feist! hehee...If you don't know who's Yuna, then let me share with you the songs that i fell in luv the first time i hear her live in Soho, Mont Kiara. Her voice melts me.

Quick update!

It's already May 1st 09. So fast time passes by!

It's Labour Day and yes i'm at work. Since there's a media launch in KL Tower this Monday, so i've been really busy this week. Thus the lack of updates and posts. One thing about doing events that i luv is the running & driving around, recce-ing places while meeting people. Being busy like this is quite fun. hahaha...

Just a quick update. I bumped into a friend from college while about to have breakfast today. She informed me that she's engaged and when i turned my head to check her fiancee out, he smiled and i smiled back and then I quickly turned back to her and asked...

Nurvia: He's malay?!
Sabrina: Yes, he is. I converted!!

I was so happy for her! We hugged and laughed and hugged some more. haha...Her name was Yvonne b4 converting and now it's Siti Nursabrina, which is such a lovely name! Suits her well. I was excited in asking her about the hows, whens, whats and wheres of the issue. I like to hear stories of how a person change their life from adopting another religion/changing name/changing the physical appearances and such. hahah..listening is good. As long as u tak kacau orang sudah. =)

So we went on chatting for awhile at Binjai Restaurant in BU, just behind the OU driving range. She and her fiancee are now doing the Pau business in that restaurant. I was having the chocolate and chicken paus when she mentioned that she's into the business. Mama bought somemore to take away while she was telling us about how hard to get good, halal paus nowadays as most paus are sold containing lard and porks. hehee...she said that the factory that produces the paus has a variety mix of paus like chocolates, pandans, red beans, bbq chicken, rendang daging and soon jagung flavor. The price of each pau is also reasonable.

What a good start of the day b4 going to work; hung out with mum and a friend together over breakfast while having chats in a great, sunny weather. Perfect start of the day. =)

To Sabrina,

Alhamdullillah that you've converted and hope you'll find peace and happiness in the process of learning being a good Muslimah. Also, Congratulations on your engagement and the coming soon wedding in August! I wish you both a neverending happiness together and forever and ever!! hehehe...

Ps: Mama said you very pretty!!! hehehe....

Earth Day Carnival

Justlife is organizing Earth Day Carnival in Ikano Power Centre from the 16th - 26th April 09. Many stalls are open showcasing and also selling earth friendly and organic skincares, cloths, lingeries, food, things and even bicycles!

I went with mama last weekend and it was really cute and nice. Very earthy set up and it was really comforting just being there. Maybe because it is an environment friendly week and thus everything to me was just sooooo soothing and friendly. haha...well, here's some photos i snapped during that friendly day.

Mama & Farhah

If you remember i wrote an article on Silentforce in my previous post, then here there are in Ikano!!

During the carnival, Farhah (my brother's gf) and her family were there promoting Silentforce, the environmetal friendly bicycles and scooters, which only use chargeable batt and electric. No fuel, gas or any medium is used to work these machines.


Farhah, Mamat & Mama

I think this one is the SF 0101, foldable electric bike. Very cool and cute!

The ladies & the bikes..heheh..Just posing. =P

Dinner at an indoor garden in OU

Sweetest couple ever!
Fariz, Sal & me

Last Friday, i had dinner with 2 very good people. They are a sweet, good couple who have been dating since school. What i love so much about them is their characteristics, which are so different and yet to me very cool. Fariz...the cool-shy-funny-&-sweet-guy, whereas Sal...the bubbly-cute-chirpy-&-friendly-girl. I really adore and respect them very much!!

So anyway, we went to One Utama and dine in at a new restaurant located on the Lower Ground Floor, The Garden restaurant, which is just beside the Reebok shop in the new wing. The ambience of the restaurant is so pretty and comfortable with flowers all around the dining area. I like the white painted walls, tables and chairs including the white plates. White really sets the appetite for anyone who dines in.

Pesto Vongole Pasta

Seafood Marinara Spaghetti, Passionfruit Tea & Garden Sandwich

The food is also tasty-yummy-sedap-umm umm. I would recommend families, friends especially girlfriends who love taking shots to dine here!!! hahaha...*wink wink.

Luv Luv

(ps: the passionfruit tea is really nice!!! tak caya tanya Fariz. hahaha)

Night & Day with the Colleagues

I used to think that it's very rare that a person would want to hang out with his/her own office colleagues, as he/she works, eats, talks, gossips, backstabbing, laughs, smokes and bertepuk-tampar, 5-6 days a week, which is like almost everyday! Wouldn't it be boring seeing the same faces, hearing the same voices and laughing at the same jokes over lunch?

No. I really don't think so.

The colleagues that i'm working with now are all females, of all ages, different characters-races-languages, ridiculous, crazy, outrageously funny and sporting!! Even though i see them from wee hours in the morning from 9 ish am till late nites, Monday - Friday, sometimes even Saturday, i am never bored sitting and chatting with them. Furthermore, I'm always looking forward to see some of them at work. The part i like best about hanging out with these ladies is that they are all smiles and cheerful even when things in office are loaded with paperwork/meetings, critisms, unnecessarily stress and politics. What a fun bunch, really.

Enough said, let me introduce them with these snapshots!! =D

Introducing the APV girls that im close with..


From left standing: Sofia, Nor, Janet, Jessie
From left sitting: Malinder, Abby & Nurvia

The day Janet leaves after 3 months practical with APV


The faces of APV
(to those of you who don't know, APV stands for Asiapromote Ventures, the company that im working at now)

This is practically the whole crew of APV. As you can see, the only male in the group is my CEO, Peter and MD, Wan Zaleha (actually there's another male, who is driver to both bosses, En. Nassir). The rest are the female employees. Girl power!! hahaa...


Food for Janet's farewell...Malinder & Janet

Weekend flower-recce with some of my crazy & wild colleagues


With Nor & Abby




While walking around, i managed to snap this..ahaha..i miss eating the soft vadei. Memang sedap!! The chick peas (kacang kuda) was also nice as they mixed it with curry leaves. Also cheap! Haiyoo..i love food like this.





Having colleagues like them, i don't mind having to work on the weekends at all! During this time, we had to check out some artificial flowers for one of our upcoming events. I love this part of the job a lot because i get to move around looking for things and also the good opportunity of snapping photos while getting to know my colleagues better. =)
