Quick Update - Night Beauty

Long Read - My Obsession

The nature is naturally beautiful. Look up to the sky in the morning, in the afternoon, near dusk and even at night time. It does seem like real life art sometimes..

Isn't the nature simply beautiful? 

I am always amazed with the sky no matter how often I see them. Sometimes words fail to describe how I really feel when I see such beauty before my eyes. But one thing I learn, capture the moment fast and then soak in the moments. 

Of all the different timing of the day, I have yet to capture the beauty of the night with the moon and/or stars. 

*Still waiting for the time to watch sun rise, to capture dawn and to go star-gazing*

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim.

Today's blog will somehow be a round-up of what today is and how it went by. 

Let's see if I could stay committed to what I had planned to start with. 

First thing first, I still cannot get over my obsession with the sky, clouds and nature. I'm not a nature person (not into gardening and that sort of thing) but over the recent years, I realized I am easily drawn to looking around me and trying to capture on camera what my eyes are seeing. It is as if I cannot marvel enough as how beautiful our surroundings are. Alhamdulilah.. Honestly, I lost count of how many pictures I have taken of the sky, clouds, sun and all the related. So far I have not been lucky enough to capture the beauty of the moon or stars at night thanks to not having a high-quality camera. 

So today is Tuesday and naturally it is working day for me. Come September it will be two years since I joined KF and left Savills. I have been saying this a lot but really how time flies! Same work routine plus site visit which made me think I should have a safety boots and helmet just to complete my looks :D 

As the title of this post suggests, tomorrow shall be 1 Ramadhan Insya Allah. I have been pretty excited that the fasting month is here again and we get to fast whole day, struggle in the early morning for sahur and enjoy counting down to buka time. Hopefully this Ramadhan will be a better one than the last and I hope I can do more good as we are expected to. 

Oh before I forgot, I finished reading a cool book today. 

I am so glad I came across this book in the library the other day. Titled High Anxiety, this fictional book is about a clinical psychologist Dr Holly and her "adventures" dealing with her patients as well as her personal life. As it is a psychology-related book, I come across some of the disorder like Gender Identity Disorder, Psychopath, Anger Management while reading this book and it brought back the memories when I was taking Abnormal Psychology. I abandoned this blog for a good couple of months sometimes I forgot what I had previously updated or wrote in my past entries. Did I wrote I took up studying again? In case no, I am still studying and it will be 2 years this December since I started studying again. Got a long way to go still and sometimes I feel that I should just quit and focus on working. But it would seem such a waste to give up everything now since I have traveled quite a distance now. It will be about what 1.5 years or 2 years more before I finish school. At times I wonder what I will do after graduation but I just cannot find the answer just yet. Let's leave all that when the time comes shall we?

Ending this post with these two beautiful pictures that I wish I had taken but no, they are taken by my sister. Don't you feel that the pictures give you some romantic vibes..? By what she told me, at the time she took these pictures I was not yet into the sceneries photography yet. Well, that must have been some good years back then I guess :)

Quick Update - I'll send you all my love every day in a letter sealed with a kiss

Darling, I promise you this
I'll send you all my love
Every day in a letter
Sealed with a kiss



There's something magical about old love songs.. 

A little story how I came to this song.. Actually it's all thanks to dad who asked to be played this song on YouTube on afternoon. Soon after this song will be requested once in a while and thus I fell in love with the melody, the song, the words.. 

Typing "Sealed With A Kiss" into YouTube will bring about 4 different singers singing the same song with different style of their own. I listened to all four and I like Brian Hyland's rendition the most followed by Bobby Vinton's. Don't really like the other two renditions. 

There's so much love and feel to this song.. 

Initially I did get a little confuse with Seal's Kiss From A Rose. I guess the word "kiss" in both songs got to me.. 

Long Read - What if all the pictures are lost?

Sometimes when I browse through past pictures that I have taken or pictures that were taken of me with families and friends, I will have this weird feeling. Why do we take pictures? 

In today's age where most people own a camera phone, things just get easier for us to snap pictures, thousands of them. I am guilty of taking way too many pictures too. 

What if those thousands of pictures just got deleted and never recovered? Then what? Will we forget all the memories that were attached to the pictures? Will people believe what we told them if there is no photographic evidence? 

I guess I am over thinking about this pictures issue. I have many things that I wanted to type for this entry but as usual when my fingers start type, my brain somehow just refuse to cooperate and I struggle to think of what I had wanted to say so badly. 

I will just stop here for now and will continue to work on this entry as we move along. 

Before I end, I'll put up those pictures that I have taken over the years to remind myself again of why we take pictures and why it is sometimes necessary to take pictures.
