Hair cut @ Bespoke

Finally, my head can breathe!!!!

Had my haircut, technically yesterday. This time at another salon but still within the vicinity of Noble Hair. Price is technically higher but since it's Tuesday, I got a student price. So, in the end the price is still the same. The salon name is Bespoke I reckon. The salon offer the usual Western haircut. So, for those who prefer Asian style, I reckon you won't get it here. For Asian hairstyle, I'd suggest Noble. But be warn, miscommunication may occur as the stylist do not have a fluent English. So, unless you speak Japanese, you might have a hard time to convey to the stylist what you want to do for the haircut.

Verdict for Bespoke: Very good. I got a very capable and talented hairstylist. She gave a very detailed consultation on the style that I chose. Friendly too.


Before

After....

Initially I asked for a shorter version but she told me that since I never had a haircut THAT short, I may not like it. So, she took a safe side and cut my hair shorter than usual but not as short as what the style I had chose. And since I like this kind of short, next time I may have even a shorter version than this =)


P.S. I realise more and more that I am getting wayyyy tanned!!!

My birthday..... (^_^)

I turn 21 today. Should I go yahooo about it? Well technically since ageing isn't really in my good books, so theoretically it may be not. But then again, this is a reality that I need to accept that I am becoming older. More mature and should be more independent. But am I? Hmmm.....

I don't really have a celebration today. Mostly because my friends are in the midst of hardworking and studious mode. Maybe suicidal mode as well... =p. Exams are coming and we as any other students in the whole wide world would like to do our best and achieve the best. But since today is my birthday, I gave myself a study holiday (^_^)v.

Zatil, Hadi, Sofia and Chelin treated me for pizza at uni. Had a great time with them catching up with each other. Then, Mahfodz (who apparently forgot that today is my birthday >.<) asked me to accompany him to survey price for hair treatment. I was planning to have a hair cut as well. The original plan was for me to have a hair cut at Noble Hair. But I decided to have my hair cut along with Mahfodz this Tuesday at another salon which uses Schwarzkopf which according to Mahfodz's friend is a reputable hair products brand. So, I decided to give it a try but I haven't book an appointment yet. Guess I'll have to ring them tomorrow. Having realised his grave mistake, Mahfodz treat me to a Korean cuisine along with his friend who came from New Zealand to Brisbane for a visit. So, two treat for the day. Enough to make me have a happy stomach! =p I bought a cake for myself from Michelle. A strawberry cheesecake. It was delicious!!!!!!!

I may not have a celebration as grand as others or as grand as I would like. But celebrating my birthday with my friends is definitely worthless. I'd like to give my utmost gratitude and thanks to those who wished me; either via phone or facebook or face-to-face. Thank you so much and may God bless you =) I praise to Allah for giving me chances to live my life till 21 years in this world and granting me a happy and wonderful family and friends by my side. Alhamdulillah =)

Last but not least....

Happy birthday to me...
Happy birthday to me...
Happy birthday to Afif...
Happy birthday to me...


Imaginary candles on the cake and puff.. puff.. puff... Blowing off the candles while making my wish......


My slice. This cake is super delicious!

Productive??

*Sigh* Today got one tiny itsy bitsy productivity. Have to continue my battle for tonight.

A thought came to my mind. I am a perfectionist. I like to learn everything thoroughly. But if I leave my job till last minute, how can I become perfect, right?

P.S. And currently I am sooooooo not perfect. My room is in a mess. With capital M. Haizz... Sienzzz

Of my crappical thought

I stared at my lecture notes
I read the sentences
But all doesn't seem to enter my mind
All seems to be lingering in the air,
Forming one big giant cloud of words and sentences that seems crappy to me
One big sigh coming from me......




P.S. Shit! I know that I need to do last minute. Last minute = pressure = I work great with pressure!! Damn!
P.P.S. But then hor last minute = inefficient and I really don't want to be inefficient lorr...
P.P.P.S. "It is not AFIF if he starts studying for finals now" (Wan Mahfodz 2009) *Sorry I don't know your surname and biatch buy me something from the Goddess Land of Korea. And Dublin as well of course*

Currently my Facebook's live feed is filled with my friends joining the 'Delete fuck Islam group' (DFI). At first I really wanted to join the group. To show my full support of my religion and that no one should have the right to belittle other religion let alone labelling other religion despicably. But I didn't join the group. I stop my cause 5 minutes after I read most of the posts in there. It seems that this group is very funny and illogical and dodgy towards the cause. Why? Read the posts in the wall. It's filled with despicable, rude, shameful words towards the creator of the Fuck Islam (FI) group. The way they act and the way they express themselves towards this so-called discrimination against Islam is childish and unthoughtful. Have they never think about what would other people of different religion would think when they read their posts? I never, ever in my life found any rules in Al-quran or Sunnah that said we could use those rude words. Do they never thought of sins? I am ashamed of those people whom technically I need to call them my brothers of faith. Their act just smear the currently bad images Islam has. We may want Facebook's moderator to delete FI but can't we do that in a very noble and peaceful manner? They are human first and foremost. Their perception towards other people are based on how we act. And if this is how the Muslims act, it is no wonder that Westerners still had a very bad perception towards us. We should currently be focusing on how to build good images of Islam, how to further achieve great development in Islam world, but what are we doing right now? Throwing more and more bad images towards Islam and further proving to Wsterners that we are a very bad people. One single act from a single Muslim can have a very big impact on the religion itself.

I urge fellow Muslims to stop this childish and shameful act. We are not showing good example towards others by cursing them. We just merely become the living proof of their bad perception towards Islam.

Rest in peace....

The tragedy that happened to three University Tun Abdul Rahman students's was indeed tragic. Three young lives were cut short, deprieved of their future achievements, happiness and also the chance to repay their parents back for all the sacrifices they made in order for them to have a good life.

One of the deceased had a blog. Just out of curiosity I went to visit his blog. It felt funny and weird as I am visiting the blog of someone who had passed away and read all the accounts of his life; his happiness and maybe his sadness (it was mostly written in Chinese. Since my Mandarin is super limited, I just assumed that there should be some sad posting as well). I felt as if like I am living his life again. That's what we felt when we read others' blog innnit? We read their postings and somehow we felt as if we were there with them, experiencing the same thing. This blog had been a secret from my dad and my mum. The only place where I could write freely without them knowing how I felt and all. My sisters do know the existence of this blog. I just can't imagine what would my parents feel if someday I am gone and this blog come to their knowledge. What would they feel reading my accounts of life as what I saw? Would it be the same as what I felt when reading the deceased blog? I just can't imagine.....

The tragedy had also taught me few things. I must do good to others for others to respect me and be good to me as well. It would be funny and extremely illogical if I expect people to do good towards me when I reciprocate it with bad behaviour. I must also learn how to forgive and forget. This is the most important quality that I need if I want myself to be happy in this life.

Rest in peace James Khor Wan Kai, Yew Shy Gin and Yew Ghim Chnieh. May God bless your souls. My thoughts go to their families and friends.
