Enchanted Eid

Salam , I'm finally back home from my trip to my hometown to celebrate Raya. It was really awesome, it was one of those rare years where everyone is on holiday and we have the biggest reunion with a LOT of catching up to do. A lot happened , seriously!  It was so tiring  helping around with cooking and cleaning and carrying heavy stuff since I'm one of the only few guy's around, so it's the obvious target to boss around. The morning of Raya I even took my camera to the mosque to get some documentary done, had a blast with my cousins , we went to the arcade then movies. Then we ended in with a little vacation at Taiping with my cousins. Taiping being the wettest place in Malaysia , gave me a horrible flu that I had to struggle tissue's with. But it din't stop me from having an adventure with my cuz stepping and climbing through stones along the semi-wild river. The next day we went to a hill that you had to hike your way to the top(witch was to far and impossible) but I was all dolled up for relaxing trips not a Hike! seriously mum! While my parents march forward to the hill me and my sisters pacing ourselves at the back gasping for air , complaining all the way. I knew I had a bad feeling about this, bare in mind that I was holding my DSLR camera , my sis bought her fair share of electronics too. The forest started to became dark, so i thought it was getting late but no It was about to rain. So we walked ourselves down quickly then it started to rain . So we started to run, then the rain went crazy on us , thunder and everything !! and I'm like , this is not happening! We were running our asses down , which took forever and were SOAKING wet!!! My camera cannot be saved there was no way of hiding it to shelter it. hahaha . Nice one MUM!. So yeah, went back to our rented house wet as hell , drying of the damage. then  I fell sick! What a trip, definitely not forgettable one.






























I hope you guys had a good raya!
Till next time!
Bye

DIY necklace

Hello there, when I got a free canvas from a friend awhile ago it came along with some wooden triangular things that always baffles me when I get them with my canvas, I have no idea what they're for. I've tried everything I could with it on the canvas and nothing makes sense . Then I thought i'll just make a necklace out of it. Glued the pieces together to form a big trapezium shape then I searched for magazine images like mountains then I just paste it on , then Viola! An awesome looking necklace. And there's a video of me vlogging through raya shopping at Kuala Lumpur. Enjoy some other random pictures and I'll see you guys after Raya I think I don't know if  I could have time post something on Raya back at my hometown. Have a safe trip "balik kampung" seriously, and Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri!






Now here's the video !




                                         

the video was taken my sis's lomo digital camera , it's really small and convenient
It's really fun to play around. I was thinking of making some sort of documentary during Raya
at my hometown where I take snippets of Raya prayer , the people and stuff! What do you guys think?

P.S. I swear my face is not that oily , it's the lomo setting!

Here's some pictures taken with the camera.












That's all for now! 
Bye!

A series of unfortunate events

Assalamuaalaikum  everyone, Ramadan is coming to an end so tragic. And now were already in those crucial
last nights in search for the Lailatul Qadr. Haha , again I've been slacking.but busy with commissions. Those requests are flooding my schedule, since I din't get any booth this week I think it's a sign for me to sit back and just relax. But it's a tad bit difficult to do that when so there's many unfortunate events  tumbling  upon you giving you no air to breath. Whats so dramatic happened? well, last Tuesday I recall , me and my Sis was just laying around the house as per usual , while my sister excessively prepare for her upcoming
interview(seriously a little step to far, watching youtube personal teaching you how to answer questions) and while my maid minds her business ( cleaning of course ) around the house . So my maid asked me for some money as instructed from my dear dad , so I just gave her the money and gave her a peculiar look( bare in mind, I do not fancy her much).  She took it , threw a quick thanks in my way and went buzzing off . Later that afternoon she went off to the store and told my sis about it. After many hours, she din't come back. So we just locked the doors and went out, It was almost 7:30 p.m. yet still no sign of her. So we just ate open fast, then my mum was curious and checked her valuable's , nothing was gone EXCEPT her passport. Then we all went scrambling through her room and all her clothes were GONE!!!! She bloody ran away!! That smart ass planned it all along , our theory is that she gradually displaced her stuff so we wouldn't realised anyhting . She planned everything with no suspicion except for the money. It din't really bother me cause I din't like her in the first place.The whole house went ballistic! My mum in particular knowing that no one is going take care of the house now and it's all on us. So after that event , I continue going for prayers that night. and when I got home they was a cat at my doorstep. Haha, that cat was so spoiled it kept purring around my leg and even jumped to my face to kiss me! seriously! You all know that I've been wanting a cat for the longest time. but the TIMING killed me. So we made a conclusion that the maid turned to a cat for running away, LOL! Now, this cat is so "manja" beyond any cats I've ever seen, it the kind where if you're face is in it's reach i'll kiss you!.
Owh hohoho, the events doesn't stop there, a day after at 6.00 a.m. I foolished-ly decided to watch a 3D movie on youtube with the glasses and all, then I went to sleep so the morning I woke up my eyes was hurting so much I couldn't walk properly and I had the most insane nausea I ever had in my life the WHOLE DAY!! I was constantly puking every half an hour (not kidding) I was laying on the couch with basin on my side filled with vomit. I was soo sick I couldn't get up. and the vomiting drained every ouch of  me to exhaustion! I wanted to cry cause it hurt so badly tasting the acid from my stomach at my mouth but I couldn't because I had to moisture in my body to cry. But I still fast for the day (pats self). When I could finally drank water I literally cried my eyes out. That was horrific!! Maybe Allah wanted to cleanse my soul or something, if it's so I'm squeaky clean. My stomach is still fragile now. So about it guys, that eventful enough for you. What do you guys think ? Congratulations if you reed this till the end I appreciate it.
Arrgh I'm tired . I hope I entertained you guys with my pathetic life . Bye now.

Raya Haul

Bonjour! Hey there, okay I must admit that I kinda was too lazy to blog although I had the time. Trying to indulge in the goodness of Ramadan since it's going so darn fast. fuuh! Well how is everyone, I have yet another booth to open tomorrow at publika for Bijou Bazaar. You guys must be a little annoyed that I'm so consumed by selling my artworks huh! haha it's side thing I do when I'm free before craziness of college starts then I've time for nothing. I'll be starting my last year next sem (crossed fingers). I've quite a long break in the terms of TOA that is. so I'm gonna soak up every day of this blissful holiday. I can't wait to go back hometown to see my big family and just have crazy fun with my cousins. Since I've been posting art none stop, I wanted to break the ice and continue posting stuff about fashion again. The day before Ramadan I went to a little shopping spree with my sis and Jaa at Kuala Lumpur. Insane fun that was, Jaa opened my eyes to a LOT to inspirational fashion , such bliss!. So here is what I bought with awesome deals to please my limited budget. Owh I kinda rearranged the stuff in my room, it's an OCD thing for me,I can't stand having my room decor unchanged for a month, yes a month is how long I change my style. Let me know what you think!













Here's some footage from the Market's last Saturday.




That's all for now,
I think I wanna go back on creating DIY's
