The Transition

A couple of days ago, a close friend of mine told me that I'm not yet a wife material. It saddened me to 

know that. Not to mention how much tears had I shed that night, I learnt it the hard way :)

It doesn't simply take one solid night to transform a plain brick to a charmingly designated house. It's 

an ongoing process which starts from a concrete platform.

Ergo, these videos. 

1) Trust 

(My #1 biggest issue!!)

2) Smile/Considerate

'O God, please marry me with a man who has the courage to lower his gaze. A man who has no desire towards any other women but me as we are men's greatest weakness.'

Closer to The One.

Be extra brilliant.

Notice the environment/people (while walking on the sidewalks).

Be radiant & pretty (naturally!) and yet keeping it simple and modest.

Use proper words. Talk nicely. BEHAVE wisely.

Be humble.

Learn to say No. 

Make more friends.

Dispose unwanted thoughts.

Keep healthy and fit. EAT.EAT.EAT! 

Not a living soul can put 'describe-me' tag on me.

"Geez! Look atchaa! Where's the curve!"

(No one knows what I hid under my garments. Those things are wrapped steadily. Let them talk.)

Bake flavorsome desserts. Such a delish!

Read more books. 

Speak more English. Be a grammar Nazi! 

Spend monthly allowances carefully. 

Instantly build self-confidence.

Keep life organized.

Filling The Gaps

Being in love does not necessarily demand you to acquire equal interests, 

of which will most likely to associate you to each other.

You do not need to find a great deal of subject to be discussed about over dinner,

nor you have to prepare your "To-do List".

If both of you are veraciously connected to one another, 

even a silent conversation has its miraculous way to draw these two souls together.

Do not get overwhelmed by differences for they are just a sheer nonsense. 

Fill the gaps steadily

and be happy.

Coffee for two, please?

Dream on.

I want to be the world to you, but I can never be like one. 

A Tale of A Worthless Ring.

Hi! I'm Shira, 24 and I'm ready to spit out my 2 cents about what engagement is all about.  

What is engagement? It is a mini phase of which two soul mates take before they go further to the big day - marriage. Some may say "It's an important baby step before marriage as it borrows you some time to know each other and to prepare what is necessary, to really digest and think about the life ahead..and so on.." I say no. 

"Ok la bertunang, boleh fikir masak-masak about our marriage"..What?? or..

 "I kumpul duit masa bertunang untuk kahwin."

Can we not know our partners without getting engaged? Why do we need to depend on that fiance/fiancee status just to dig in on our partner's personale better? What if fate tells you a different ending, when one of you suddenly feels emotionally unattached to one another? "Kita putus tunang. I tak serasi dengan you." Wow! I'm awfully mesmerized! 

Should you marry your soul partner, the plan is already at the tip of your fingers. If you are 100% sure and prepared about taking your partner into your life, why do you need to 'makan angin' on that shaky vague phase? Unless you're engaged for a short period of time, it's acceptable. Kot. hehe. 

Kalau tak cukup duit, buat apa nak bertunang? Baik saving untuk kahwin kan. Jimat belanja. Orang sekarang bertunang pun over, dah macam akad nikah! lol! Seriously. Skip this part, and you will not need to suffer spending a big amount of money on the engagement dowries and the ring. Brilliant! :)

I'm sorry, but I honestly do not see the significance of engagement. It is very risky and pretty costly. 

Good night! :)

Drowned in the midst of crowds. Such is life!

I'm fully aware that life alone does not revolve around me.  Having to walk on the same ground and to suck up the same air greedily- I feel insecure.  How can I be sure that it's not the seamy side of life? I need to give myself the kiss of life.


*lame random panting before I go idle on the bed. Good night! 

May 8 Statement.

I used to be mute before. So naive. So pathetic. 

I guess I HAVE to be mute again, minus the latter.

When mouth is sealed shut, the head may utter the words silently. 

I might keep all the emotions, anger, happiness or any sorts of moods to myself. 

Less talk means less argument. 

It's better to have it start from its root, isn't it?
