I mean it...

I Will Be by Avril Lavigne

There’s nothing I can say to you
Nothing I could ever do to make you see
What you mean to me
All the pain the tears I cried
Still you never said goodbye and now I know how far you’d go
I know I let you down but its not like that now
This time I’ll never let you go

I will be all that you want and get my self together
Cause you keep me from falling apart
All my life I’ll be with you forever
To get you through the day and make every thing OK

I thought that I had every thing I didn’t know what life could bring
But now I see honestly
You're the one thing I got right
The only one I let inside
Now I can breathe cause your here with me
And if I let you down I’ll turn it all around
Cause I would never let you go

I will be all that you want and get my self together
Cause you keep me from falling apart
All my life I’ll be with you forever
To get you through the day and make every thing OK

Cause with out you I can’t sleep
I’m not gonna ever ever let you leave
You’re all I got
You’re all I want
And with out you I don’t know what I’ll do
I could never ever live a day with out you
Here with me do you see your all I need

And I will be all that you want and get myself together
Cause you keep me from falling apart
All my life I will be with you forever
To get you through the day and make every thing OK

I will be all that you want and get my self together
Cause you keep me from falling apart
And all my life you know I will be with you forever
To get you through the day and make every thing OK


AHI
dedicated to
-my dearest wife-

No, won't ruin your smile.

For you see, each day I love you more. Today more than yesterday and less than tomorrow.

I have always loved photography - love taking photos and to be photographed, hence never leave my house without my digital camera. Hehe. Was a member of Photography Club back in high school (but didn't learn anything much there) and took a photography class during my undergraduate study (errr...learnt nothing much here as well). ;P

And of course, I have always wanted a DSLR. I even have its picture (a pic of DSLR) on my pink vision board [if you watch Oprah, then you should know what it is ;)], since 2007 ;)

One fine morning, Abdul said something to me, which really really made my day. And that afternoon, I e-mailed him:

Asni: I'm smiling all day long today.

Abdul: Nape?

Asni: Because my husband is going to buy me something that I have always wanted. It's on my pink vision board as well. Since two years ago.:)

Abdul: I've checked the Net. It will cost me RM****

Asni: Oh, takpelah. Tak payah belilah then.

Abdul: No, won't ruin your smile...

At that point of time, I could feel the tears in my eyes. I was speechless. And later in the evening, he fetched me from the office, brought me to the famous Low Yatt and made THE purchase! :) I wanted to settle for a much cheaper one, but he insisted on buying this one . Whatever it is, I thank you, B.

Thank you for the thought and for the wonderful birthday gift. *BigHugs* Love, Asni

Trip to Jakarta & Bandung: Part III

asniloveschocolate:

Hajat di hati ingin ke Tangkuban Perahu untuk menikmati pemandangan kawah gunung berapi yang dikatakan menakjubkan dan ke Kampung Daun untuk menikmati makan malam romantis, kononnya, bila tiba di Bandung. Tapi, rancangan berubah apabila Abdul mahu mengunjungi, kalau boleh, all the factory outlets. Haiyah!See, siapa yang shopaholic? ;)

Oh, di Bandung, kami menginap di Royal Dago Inn selama 3 hari 2 malam. Tapi, not recommendedlah. Bilik berbau asap rokok, bilik air yang kurang bersih, katil dan bantal yang tidak berapa empuk. Huhu. Jadi, please do your research first prior to staying at any hotel or inn! Jangan jadi macam kami, hanya walk-in. Hihi.

So, now, jom kita jalan-jalan di Kota Bandung, the shopping haven for shopaholics! :D

Mengunjungi Pasar Baru. Banyak baju batik Indonesia, telekung, kebaya, kain-kain. Tapi personally, saya lebih suka Pasar Tanah Abang di Jakarta. More choices, I think.

Membeli-belah di Mode Plus. Saya lebih banyak duduk dan lihat. Heh.

Di Rumah Mode. Saya suka! Banyak pilihan! Harga berpatutan! Dan di sini juga ada beberapa small cafes, jadi bolehlah berehat dan makan-makan di sana sementara melepaskan penat membeli-belah. :)

House of Donatello - for shoes and handbags.

Heritage di Jalan Riau - satu lagi factory outlet yang menyediakan banyak pilihan. Terima kasih Abaw kerana mengesyorkan kami untuk ke sini!

Cascade, barangannya tidak banyak berbeza dengan Heritage. Bangunannya hanya sebelah-menyebelah dengan Heritage.

The Summit juga terletak di Jalan Riau. Paling saya suka about The Summit - ada satu bilik kecil di dalam The Summit which houses casual clothing for men and women.Paling menarik, hanya ada satu piece untuk setiap blaus atau dress yang dijual di situ. Siap diskaun lagi. Sangat suka. :))

Episode Fashion House - saya sempat membeli sebuah Tous travel bag yang comel! Terima kasih hubby! ;)

Terserempak dengan Abaw, kawan lama dari TKC yang sekarang belajar di kota Bandung. Seronoknya! Terima kasih Abaw kerana memperkenalkan Golden Money Changer dan Brownies Kukus Amanda yang lazat!!! :)

Berehat di Executive Lounge, Bandung Airport.

Asalnya, flight kami dari Bandung ke Kuala Lumpur sepatutnya berlepas pada 3.20 petang. Namun, kapal terbang tersebut tiba sejam lewat. By the time we got onto the plane, it's almost 5.30p.m. Selepas pramugara dan pramugari menyelesaikan tugas mereka (menunjukkan pemakaian alat keselematan), an announcement was suddenly made by the pilot. Due to safety reason, they did not want to continue flying. Pada masa pengumuman dibuat, insiden Fokker jatuh di tempat yang berdekatan dua hari sebelumnya bermain-main di fikiran saya. Insiden tersebut mengorbankan 24 individu. We got to wait for almost 13 hours at the airport for a back-up flight from Jakarta. Walaupun penantian selama 13 jam itu sungguh meletihkan dan membuatkan saya demam hingga hari ini, saya tetap bersyukur kerana kami selamat sampai ke tanah air. Terima kasih Allah.

Trip to Jakarta and Bandung: Part II

asniloveschocolate:

Dari Jakarta, kami mengupah seorang supir, Pak Ruby, untuk membawa kami ke kota Bandung. Perjalanan melalui lebuh raya hanya memakan masa 2 -3 jam. Namun kami membuat keputusan untuk singgah di beberapa tempat sekitar Bogor yang lebih dikenali sebagai Kota Hujan, sebelum tiba di Bandung. We took our own sweet time, jalan-jalan, taking photos and only arrived in Bandung after 6 - 7 hours drive. But it's all worth it. :) Alternatively, anda juga boleh menaiki keretapi dari Stesyen Gambir di Jakarta untuk ke Bandung, atau anda boleh juga menaiki van dari Plaza Semanggi, Jakarta untuk ke Bandung. Mungkin akan dikenakan caj sebanyak RM10 - 15 seorang.

Meninjau Istana Bogor dari jauh. Lihat rusa - rusa itu. Asalnya hanya 10 ekor. Now, there are thousands of them within the palace area. Tapi baunya...err...

Melawat Kebun Raya Bogor. Lihat bangunan putih tu! Pandangan dari belakang Istana Bogor.

Ke Taman Safari Indonesia. Asib loves this place best! Yeah, he adores animals. Eww. Heh.

Menikmati makan tengahari di Restoran Rindu Alam, di Punchak yang famous itu. Hawa dingin, pemandangan yang hijau, cukup menenangkan. :)

Sampai nanti. Jumpa di Paris van Java ya! ;)

Trip to Jakarta & Bandung: Part I

asniloveschocolate:

Abdul & I were in Jakarta and Bandung from 4th April 2009 - 8th April 2009. Sepatutnya pergi ke sana bersama E-in & Tapai and Miera & Irfan, but due to unavoidable circumstances (read: second trimester pregnancy for Miera and third for E-in, heh!), hanya tinggal Abdul & I yang meneruskan the original plan. You guys better make it up to me! ;) So, here goes, especially to E-in & Miera, the 10 things Abdul & I did in Jakarta:

1. Bandara - Soekarno-Hatta Airport

2. Menetap di Hotel Ibis Tamarin. Terima kasih kak AM kerana mengesyorkan!

3. Memborong kain dan telekung di Pasar Tanah Abang. Murah, murah! :)

4. Ronda - ronda sekitar Jakarta Sentral & Kemang menggunakan Bajai (a 3 wheeler taxi) dan teksi Blue Bird. Teksi-teksi selain Blue Bird jarang menggunakan meter! Awas!

5. Makan malam di Superbowl, Blok M Plaza

6. Makan pagi di Rumah Makan Garuda - terkenal dengan masakan Melayu dan Minang yang enak.

7. Jalan - jalan di Taman Impian Jaya Ancol or better known as Ancol Dreamland di Ancol Bay City, Jakarta. Seronoknya!

8. Singgah di gedung- gedung membeli-belah sekitar Mangga Dua - WTC Mangga Dua, ITC Mangga Dua dan Mangga Dua Square. Nothing interesting though. Huhu.

9. Bergambar di Tugu Monumen Nasional @ MONAS , kebanggaan rakyat Jakarta khususnya.

10. Melawat Taman Mini Indonesia Indah or Beautiful Indonesia Miniature Park. I think the concept is quite similar to Kampung Budaya Sarawak. Telah wujud lebih kurang 4 atau 5 dekad yang lalu. A must-visit, I would say.

Till then, people! Jumpa di Part II and Part III! :)
