WHY WOMEN SHOP LIKE THERE IS NO TOMORROW

According to US 2007 Consumer spending survey, the average household expenditure for women’s and girl’s clothing amounted to USD749 compared to just USD435 for men and boys.  I guess even in 2012, women still leading in this department, regardless your location.  Why do women shop so much? What is our motive? I listed some of the possibilities :

• De-stress
• Detox (few hours shopping, no time to eat, drink mineral water only, so detox lah kan, no? yes?)
• To drop some weight (yelah, jalan-jalan shopping can burn calory kan..exercise mah..)
• Need to look good to woo your other half or other half to be
• Too much spare time
• Too much money (can you please GIVE – not lend ah, me some??)

Common sense, well, all the above are possible.  Tetttt!! Nah, wrong..wrong..wrong! According to new study from University of Minnessotas Carlson School of Management (if they tipu, then I tipu also lah ahhh) entitled “Ovulation, Female Competition and Product Choice : Harmonal Influences on Consumer Behavior” suggested that ovulating women are far more likely to spend money on sexy clothes than women at a different point in their monthly cycle.

The implication, according to the researchers, is that the women DO NOT buy sexy clothes ONLY – along with the purchases are shoes, cosmetics, health supplements and a world of other products – not to attract men directly, but rather to edge out their female rivals.

So, the reason why we, women shopped more than man is because of hormones, plus we are a jealous b*#@h, that thinks no one else should look better than ourself…walawei, gila!!

Whatever the study suggested, I shop because...

• it makes me feel happy
• the joy it bring, is priceless
• I have nothing to do on my spare time (errr...)
• I want to contribute to the economy growth of my country (and occasionally at some other countries as well)

 Tomorrow is cuti, what do you think...shopping, again? heart say YES! pocket say...ARE YOU NUTS, WOMAN!!  Takpe, tomorrow I am going to KL International Book Fair, buku pun bukulah..

tata peeps!

LOUIS VUITTON

I L.O.V.E LOUIS VUITTON, I do....I do...I do..do..do..do..doooooo

I've known LV for quite some time, I think like 20 years ago but don't really bothered about it.  Arrghhh its for orang tualah..suddenly, I lay my eyes on Monogram LV Speedy 30 and...I'm in love.

Me at Louis Vuitton Paris

Me and Neverfull

My latest baby

The question now is WHY LV?

Some people said that it is all about the status symbol.  You see girl with a Chanel purse and Gucci sunglasses, you would go like "Wow! I wish I had that kind of money!".  Let me be frank with you, I DON'T have THAT much of money, I saved..for each and every item that I own (plus gift from TD as well of course)

There are also a survey result shows that women in their forties (PLS TAKE NOTE THAT I AM NOT FORTY, YET) are more likely to purchase fashion item than other age groups. They are likely to purchase fashion products from brands that are easily recognized by others as 'luxury brands'.  Hmmm so my obsession with LV is genuinely based on the 'AGE' factor?*blink*blink*

Anyway, thank you to Monsieur Louis Vuitton, that was born in 4th August 1821, a French designer and an entrepreneur whose name has become iconic in the fashion world, that forever and always have a special place in my heart (and pocket).

Until we meet again, I shall be seeing you (after my tabung has penuh) for items below :

FAREWELL MR OOI CHWEN REN

Just came back from Nirvana Memorial, Salak Selatan to pay last respect to Mr Ooi Chwen Ren, ex Regional Executive headed PABW Northern Region (Gombak and KL).  This is a first time, I went to a non-muslim's funeral, the tradition and ceremony may be different from us, muslims but the sadness and pain of losing someone very dear to you is still the same.

It torn me to acknowledge that I have not make time to keep in touch with him after we went our separate ways like 7-8 years ago, not a phone call or any attempt made to find him in Facebook. How we always take things for granted...

Anyway, its good to know that he is very much loved and respected not only by his family and relatives, but by his peers, friends and staff.  Parlour 18, 1st Floor, Nirvana Memorial just now was packed with those who wanted to pay their last respect to the late Mr Ooi, 2 buses were chartered for his staff to come down from Kelantan. Wow! Mr Ooi!! you deserved this grand farewell!

Rest in peace, Mr Ooi! It is an honour to have knowing and working with you.

SURVIVING MONDAYS

Are you feeling like this...

and

Instead of putting this on, to work....

You're wearing this....

Instead of looking like this....

You end up like this....

Well, that's Monday Blues symptoms y'all!

Nah, here is some tips I've found on How to Survive Mondays....

Wear your best clothes or the cheeriest colour from your wardrobe. You’d be surprise how much your clothes could affect the way you feel about yourself. - tried! it worked hokeh

Early start- bad things happen when you are late, the tension level is high, you are in a rush, you don’t have time for breakfast, when you arrive at your office, people are shoving work into your face. It may seem like a punishment to wake up earlier on Monday but trust me, when you have enough time to organize yourself, you’ll feel like you can conquer the day easier. - absolutely true

Treat yourself in the morning – Sit down and eat. - although it’s ok to treat yourself, make sure you eat well.  Have enough to drink too - your malaise could be a sign of dehydration. - so far, my mornings really chaotic, need to manage my time well then

Have a list of why you’re having the blues – you might be surprised that there will be things on the list that you can easily work on to make your Mondays better

Complete as much work possible on Friday – you’ll have less work to worry about on Monday - WHAT??work harder on Friday...?

Have everything laid out the day before – your clothes, files, etc. Saves you a couple of minutes in the morning so that you can concentrate on other, more important things. - Yup, agreed

Listen to happy songs – a tune can affect your mood. Let cheery, happy songs be the soundtrack to your Monday. - yes, its either happy songs or your fav song (even if it's Ombak Rindu), my mood will improve with good songs played

Laugh and smile. Recall happy memories or a good joke. If you can’t think of any, do it anyway (fake it till you make it) Some research is saying that even the thought of laughing raises your endorphin (feel-good hormones) levels and a fake laughter provides similar benefits to a real one.

Affirmative statements – Today is a great day. I will complete my report today. Stick positive messages around your monitor and take them seriously.

Choose to feel happy. If you don’t already know, being happy is a choice, so choose happiness!

This is my favourite - Buy something NEW for Monday – it doesn’t have to be big or expensive – a pen, a sketchbook, fancy post-it stickers (a handbag or two, won't do any harm kan....)

I will try it next Monday, wish me luck peeps.

xoxo

RIP MR OOI CHWEN REN

RIP Mr.oii..dh tau ke x..— with Nurul Fina Ismail and Haslinda Hatta Amirrul. - Zaharah message to me in my FB.

Hah? WHAT!!! terkejut gila when I received the news on passing of my x bos, Mr Ooi Chwen Ren. I was in class so couldn't reply more, cuma sempat jawab, "OK tq Are!".

Mr Ooi my x boss is the 1st boss sepanjang my career, boss yang best, tak cerewet, tak banyak songel, baik orangnya unlike my previous bosses and some after him.  I still remember, I used to pow him some money for our makan-makan session, langsung tak kedekut.

Mr Ooi's memorial service is at Nirvana Memorial Center, 1st floor, Parlour 18 from 22/04 till 25/04. The Cortege will leave for cremate at Nirvana Crematorium (Shah Alam) on 26/04/12 @ 10am.

Rest in peace, Mr Ooi! Thank you for the good memories, you'll be missed.  I will always remember you as the most cool boss ever and caring soul.

To Mr Ooi's family, my condolence on the passing of your loved one, whom I have the privileged to be working with. I know he will always remain very much alive in the memories of all of us who knows, respected and treasured him.

PSSSST...GOSSIP!

Eeeee susahnyalah orang cantik ni...ada je gosip. Kawan ngan Menteri salah, kang kalau kawan ngan despatch boy ke pengusaha ladang cili ke..orang kata duduk tak berapa sama tinggi pulak..macam-macam. I sibuk ngomel ni sebab terbaca pasal artis cantik Zahida Rafik, yang konon-kononnya ada skandal dengan Menteri, tak berapa terkejut pun, orang cantikkan, dia punya sukalah nak kawan ngan sapa pon...Yang sibuk-sibuk nak mendedah tu mendedah ni pon satu, esok esok kalau orang dedah dedahkan you, jgn pulak marah pulak iye.  Ni laporan berita tu, tak tau lah betul ke tak :

19 Apr- Laporan polis telah dibuat oleh pemandu peribadi, Noor Azman Azemi yang berusia 38 tahun dalam kenyataan balas terhadap dirinya yang dituduh membawa lari wang berjumlah RM200,00 oleh Zahida Rafik awal bulan lepas.

Dalam laporan tersebut, Noor Azman memberitahu ketika itu dia berada di rumahnya di Flat PKNS Ampang, dia telah didatangi dua orang lelaki yang memperkenalkan dirinya sebagai anggota polis yang bernama Hafiz dan Raj.

Kenyataan telah diberikan oleh Azman mengenai status hubungan sulit di antara Zahida dengan Datuk Shafie Apdal. Dia turut memberitahu kenyataan yang telah diberikan adalah benar kerana dia merupakan antara orang kepercayaan Datuk Syafie Apdal dalam merahsiakan hubungan sulit mereka yang telah terjalin hampir 3 tahun itu. Azman turut mengakui bahawa duit yang seringkali diberikan kepada Zahida, dia merupakan orang kepercayan yang akan pergi ke bank.

"Saya telah dilantik oleh Datuk untuk menjadi pembantu peribadi Zahida, saya merupakan antara orang kepercayaan Datuk. Dia turut memberitahu saya agar sentiasa memantau gerak-geri Zahida selama ketiadaan dirinya dan akan melaporkan kepada Datuk.

"Datuk akan berjumpa secara rahsia dengan Zahida di beberapa hotel terkemuka di sekitar Kuala Lumpur pada setiap hujung minggu. Setiap kali selepas perjumpaan itu, Datuk akan memberikan wang sebanyak RM100,00 hingga ke RM200,00. Wang tunai tersebut kemudiannya akan dibawa ke bank oleh Zahida ditemani saya dan dimasukkan ke dalam akaun Maybank milik Zahida di Menara Perkeso, Ampang."

Kenyataan laporan polis di atas telah didedahkan sendiri oleh Ahli Parlimen Ampang, Zuraida Kamaruddin di lobi Parlimen yang lalu.

Melalui siasatan yang telah dilakukan, terdapat beberapa transaksi yang melibatkan sejumlah wang yang banyak telah dilakukan menteri itu kepada Zahida di antara Oktober 2011 hingga Januari 2012.

"Pada bulan Oktober 2011 sahaja ada dua transaksi iaitu RM36,000 dan RM26,000. Maknanya pada bulan itu sebanyak RM68,000 tunai yang diambil Noor Azman untuk dimasukkan ke dalam akaun Zahida Rafik.

Pada November 2011 pula sebanyak RM118,000 dan pada Disember pula sebanyak RM333,000 serta pada Januari 2012 sebanyak RM510,000. Kalau saya jumlahkan kesemuanya ia lebih kurang RM1.4 juta dalam masa empat bulan menteri itu berikan tunai kepada Zahida Rafik," katanya.

Zuraidi juga turut mendedahkan, Zahida memiliki sebuah kereta mewah jenis BMW 6 Series ,Porshe, Toyota Harrier dan juga rumah bernilai RM2.9 juta.

Sebelum itu, Zahida pernah ditanya mengenai statusnya yang dikatakan dibela oleh golongan VIP namun telah dinafikan dan memberitahu duit yang dimiliki sekarang adalah hasil daripada perniagaan yang dijalankan sejak beberapa tahun yang lepas.

wah..wah..wah....tergosip sudah. Dah nak sambung buat kerja. Tata!

MEETINGS = BRAIN DEAD?

Hahahahalooooo!!!

Sorry, tak sempat nak update my blog for few days.  Sibuk from Monday -recovering the Monday blues- plus meeting, Tuesday, meeting in the morning and in the afternoon, today in the afternoon a short meeting with Boss.  Badan dah sengal sengal, I am not sure if meetings are the cause of it or sebab mmg badan tak berapa sihat.

Someone shared with me an articles on meetings, researchers actually found out that too many meetings can caused a measureable drop in people's IQ??? ha?? seriously??? Is that a reason why I sometimes ter 'accidently' called my big boss, Dr, Ustaz, Hj...instead of Datuk? haaaaa.... 


Here's the article :

Meetings don't just eat up time in the workplace, they actually make groups of people stupider, says new research.

Working in a group makes people perform worse on intelligence tests, as some group members are so anxious about doing well that they 'divert' their brain power towards maintaining their social status in the group.

'You may joke about how committee meetings make you feel brain dead, but our findings suggest that they may make you act brain dead as well,' said Read Montague the study leader at Virginia Tech.

Groups of volunteers showed measurable drops in IQ when asked to perform intelligence tests socially, with the results broadcast to the group.

Some people performed well in the 'social' tests, but others were affected badly - and overall, performance dropped.

Women appear to feel this pressure more than men - only three out of 13 female volunteers performed well in a social environment, with 10 out of 13 finding that their performance dropped.

Oh NOOOO!!!

No wonder after few meetings 3 days in a row, I have the urged to do things like this....

L? Loser?? no laaah...L for Che Lynn dah LEMAU

See ya peeps!

From the bottom of my heart

The set back about being a HR practitioner is that people think that you are made of steel, you do not have feelings and you are a one mean b^&%h!  

Sabaarrlah. Let me tell you one thing about us.....come here...come nearer....

WE DON'T GIVE A DAMN

Acah je, joking joking...

Come on peeps, we have feelings alright, do you think we feel good when we have to terminate staff, take whatever disciplinary action against one of your colleague that you see every single day. We have to take whatever name calling, cold shoulder treatment, etc, etc in the name of duty, and still hold no grudges to these people that caused you misery. This is the responsibility handed to us and if we didn't do anything, you'll call us makan gaji buta, when we do our job you call us b%$^h. You can love us or hate us, but this is what we do for a living.

To all senior HR practitioners out there, I salute you for being in this field for so long yet keep your sanity intact

huhu emo kejap :p

Stress Buster

Hallooo!

Pegi sana, pegi sini asik dengar orang cakap stress..stress..stress...stress.  Selidik punya selidik rupanya stress ni agak common dan boleh jadi kat sapa sapa saja, sekarang ni budak budak pun boleh stress, mau taknya kalau jadual padat giler mengalahkan perdana menteri, pagi pegi sekolah agama, tghari pegi sekolah, maghrib pegi mengaji lepas tu pegi tuition, weekend ada kelas muziklah, taekwandolah, bola lah, tu belum ada yang kena pegi kelas bahasa, ada yang mandarin, peranchis segala...tak cukup rehat, adusss!!!

Stress boleh jadi sekiranya terdapat faktor luaran macam masalah rumahtangga, halangan, kesusahan, high expectation yang diluar jangkauan dan pelbagai benda yang perlu ditangani hari hari, ada juga faktor dalaman macam ability untuk handle stress, pemakanan, kesihatan fizikal dan juga mental, tidur, rehat.

Apa stress yang orang sibuk sibuk tu? Oiii jangan main main, stress ni rupanya boleh mendatangkan macam macam penyakit, hari tu, Che Lynn rasa badan memang lain macam, sakit sakit belakang ni, nak kata demam tak demam, tapi memang berat dan tak larat rasanya, kepala pun 'beng' semacam je, beberapa hari macam tu.  Pegi jumpa Dr, ambil temperature, OK, blood pressure, OK, pulse, tekak sume OK, tapi kenapa I rasa tak OK ni...?? Dr tanya, stress ke, what are you so anxiety about? Ha?? stress?? stress mendenye Dr, biasa je.  Personal life - alhamdulillah, Kerja - ala biasalah kalau asik meeting, banyak deadline, banyak case kene handle, same old same old lah, nothing that I couldn't handle la rasanya.  Pastu I tanya kat Dr tu, takkan la pasal stress saya boleh rasa macam ni.  Rupanya, Dr tu explain, stress ni boleh jadi punca kesihatan kita ni haywire, kalau asik streeessss aje, boleh darah tinggi, nanti kang boleh lead ke strokelah, mcm mcmlah... eeeee takut la dengar.  So i pun start la google, buatlah research skit macam mana kita nak handle atau menangani stress ni.

1. Kalau rasa nak naik angin je, ala ala nak stress je tarik nafas dalam dalam dan perlahan lahan lepaskan nafas tu, ha buat few times breathing technique ni.

2. Jalan jalan lah kat luar tengok pemandangan, yelah kalau asyik dengan kerja mengadap komputer je memang lah boleh jem.  Kalau lepak 5 minit kat balkoni, tgk pemandangan luar especially kalau ada pokok pokok skit hmmm mesti rasa releks lepas tu kan. Tapi kalau I, lepak kat balkoni nampak KLCC huarrghhh terbayang experience shopping terus boleh hilang stress ok.

3. Minum air dan alas perut dengan snek yang berkhasiat, iyelah lapar dengan dehidrat memang bukan combo yang bagus lah kan.

4. Planlah something rewarding lepas melalui hari yang stress, macam baca buku kegemaran, mandi, coffee coffee session dgn kawan kawan ke...janganlah dah lepas meeting panjang, balik dah plan nak buat spring cleaning almari pulak

Hmmm ok, I nak sambung baca buku, nak destress jugak after long day...

Take care!

APA DAAA!!

Hi peeps,

I've read one of my fav blog this morning, alamak kesiannya, kenapalah orang orang ni tak boleh tengok orang senang sikit.  Kita patutnya bagi sokongan, semangat bukannya nak jatuhkan orang, tak baik tau, jangan lupa what comes around goes around err ke what goes around comes around...mana manalah but you know what i mean kan.

Takpelah, some people can't help itlah, dah memang perangai dia macam tu. Kita ni lah yang kena kuat semangat, biarlah apa orang nak kata, janji kita dan family tahu apa yang kita buat itu adalah betul, so persetankanlah comment comment yang tak membina tu.  So people, lets get away from all the negativity that will drown you. 

Kalau jumpa orang yang tak membina semangat tu, cakap ngan dia...

Adios people! talk to MY......

eh silap

 TALK TO MY HAND

Che Lynn tengah baca satu buku ni by Rhonda Byrne - The Power, buku ni memang dapat rating yang baguslah, elok untuk kita kenali diri dan juga potensi kita.  Dari kita sibuk pikir what other people think about us, baik kita usaha untuk memperbaiki dan kenali potensi diri.  Nak cerita lebih tak boleh sebab tak habis baca lagi, so tak bolehlah nak cerita lebih lebihkan.. Kalau I dah habis baca, I will share it with you guys.  Synopsis dia macam ni "Life is so much easier than you think it is, and as you come to understand the way life works, and The Power you have inside you, you will experience the magic in life in its fullness - and then you will have an amazing life!

OK, you take care. Later later k

Demam Melanda

Aduyai, anak besar demam pulak, kesiannya badan panas.  Tadi elok je, siap keluar nak main bola, alih alih pukul 6 ptg dah balik rumah cari panadol.  Rasa badan, mak ai panas nya nak oooiii!! Since kereta tinggal satu, (lepas kena curi bulan lepas, kereta baru OTW) En TravelDaddy pulak pegi main bola bawak si kecik tu...aittt camne nih.  Sungguhpun anak dah besar, dah bujang, anak ooo!! sayang!! issykk kesian dia.

I dah buat sponging, bilik dia tu i kasi udara tu circulate supaya temperature bilik tu tak panas, stuffy kang lagi panas dan rimas dia.  Tapi i tak pasang aircond, dia tak bagi.

Ubat dia dah makan, apa lagi nak buat ni.... google jugaklah petua petua demam ni, jumpa 2 petua yang boleh diguna pakai sebab pernah dengar dari my mom, the TravelNenek

1.  Petik daun dari pokok bunga raya, letak air sikit,, ramas ramas daun tu sampai dia keluar macam lendir pastu lumurkan dekat kepala, celah ketiak, celah kangkang.

2.  Ambil biji kembang semangkok, letaklah 3-4 ke, masukkan dalam air segelas, biarkan dalam 4 jam sampai dia kembang dan jadi macam jelly jelly skit la, bubuh gula batu skit pastu minum.  Katanya ni boleh tolong meredakan suhu badan panas tu.

3.  Ada yang kata pulak, makan vitamin c lah. Yang ni memang i sendiri selalu buat, kalau demam especially selsema, memang ambil vit c ni lebih skit lah, pagi 2 biji mcm tu

hmmm En TravelDaddy dah OTW, papahal pun bawak pegi clinik dulu pastu kita pegi cari Seng Seh (Dr perubatan cina la, ala tu ha kedai ubat cina tu)

OK later later peeps!

You all take care ye, Acheh petang tadi dilanda gempabumi, beberapa negara dah keluarkan amaran tsunami, yang ada di kawasan pantai tu, berhati hati ye.

Missing my other half

I am missing my bubu, he's been away for 5 days.  Due to work commitment he travel a lot,  its business trip to Amsterdam this time. Its different and I feel lonely when he's not around, the house seems to be hmmm quiet even with 1 talkative kid and a do-not-mess-around-with-me teenager.  

People asked me how come i still miss my husband after 16 years of marriage, don't you feel relief when he is not around? errr well, he can be a pain in the ^%# sometimes, but he is MY pain in the %$#. How can I not missing my other half who has been with me in my thick and thin? He may not be perfect, and so do I.  Marriage is all about compromising and filling in the blanks for one another.  Oooooo so very the sentimental lah today, tak kisahlah, yang bestnya bubu balik ye ye..bubu balik..yeye!!

SENYUM

Hola peeps!!

Pagi ni bangun mood memang agak merundum sikitlah, dia up skit bila anak besar cakap "Abang tak nak pegi sekolah la hari ini". Eeee anginlah satu badan, awak tu nak PMR tahun ni, tak boleh nak malas malas pegi sekolah toott tot tet tet tot tot...I membebel.

Grrr...dia kalau pagi pagi dah masuk angin halamatnya...

Hantar abang adik pegi school, bergendung gendunganlah barang barang nak ngangkut

Ni baru introduction je..belum baju sekolah, beg make up, beg tuition, tak masuk lagi nih...




Alhamdulillah hari ni pulak jalan bolehlah tahan, sangkut sangkut manja sikit je. So mood tu dah agak OK skit, sampai dekat area ofis, sebab hari ni hari jumaat (yeay TGIF!!) so hari ni adalah hari yong tow foo, beli dekat van depan KWSG. Sedap! makcik tu layanan dia memang baik, ramah, senyum saja...siap bagi Che Lynn coklat 2 (mak suka!!) Sampai dekat parking, uncle parking tu dah sambut dengan senyuman.."Morning akak!" "Morning Uncle" i balas...lebar senyuman dia. On the way nak naik ke tingkat atas terjumpa lah beberapa orang rakan rakan sepejabat (BTW, ofis I tinggal 3, no lift, can we take it as my regular exercise? no? yes?). Morning!!! Hi!! Assalamualaikum!! semua tu beserta dengan senyuman. Sampai kat ofis, Morning Puan..Assalamualaikum...issykk i feel so loved.


Hasil dari kutip senyuman pagi ni, semua angin angin badan, settle! Mood sekarang ni..HAPPY!! Sampai bilik, tak sempat nak bukak lappy terus amik kertas dengan pencil, terus tulis untuk my blog for the day.

Pastu I terjumpa pulak beberapa fakta fakta menarik tentang senyuman dari FB jugak blog blog lain..(pinjam yeee..) antaranya :

Senyum merupakan satu senaman berbentuk jogging dalaman yang dapat merangsang seluruh tubuh melaui sistem saraf otak dan juga hormon-hormon. Apabila kita tersenyum, badan turut ‘tersenyum’ dan memperlahankan aliran darah yang melalui sinus ke otak. Ini sangat bermanfaat dalam mengelakkan tekanan darah yang tinggi ke otak.

Ketawa (berperasaan gembira) sebanyak 100 kali dalam tempoh 24 jam mempunyai manfaat kardiovaskular sama seperti bersenam selama 10 minit. Hal ini demikian kerana apabila kita ketawa, tekanan darah dan kadar degupan jantung meningkat. Seterusnya, kedua-dua kadar ini akan turun lebih rendah daripada paras sebelum ketawa.

Senyuman juga mampu merendahkan tekanan darah, menambah kemasukan oksigen dalam darah dan ini secara tidak langsung merangsang proses penyembuhan.

Senyuman yang diakhiri dengan ketawa mengaktifkan bahan kimia badan dan secara tidak langsung merendahkan risiko penyakit jantung, tekanan darah tinggi, strok, arthritis dan ulser.

Senyuman dan ketawa adalah senaman yang baik kerana ia membabitkan diafragma, abdomen, sistem pernafasan, muka, kaki dan otot belakang badan. Ia ibarat urutan terhadap organ-organ dalam abdomen dan menguatkan otot abdomen, merangsang kedua-dua belah otak dan meningkatkan daya tumpuan belajar. Ia juga melegakan ketegangan otot dan tekanan psikologi, membuatkan otak lebih peka serta bersedia menerima maklumat baru.

Senyum mampu menjadi penawar kepada penyakit rohani yang kronik. Ia juga mampu menyejukkan hati yang sedang marah dan memulakan sebuah ukhuwwah.

Jadi, apa lagi...senyum..senyummm. Harap kalau tgk ni...boleh senyumlah sikit...



errr mungkin tak..apa kata kalau tgk nih...


atau ni...



Boleh mengundang senyuman macam ni....


Have a productive day, peeps!
