Chasing Heaven

I remember when I was still studying in UIA, Neelofa's name was here and there when the media kept covering issues about her. That was due to her winning of Dewi Remaja 2010/2011. Since then, I started following her career. 


Something about her that made me make one of my favourite idols, after DS Siti Nurhaliza. Well, I have a lot of other favourite artistes, but favourite idols, only a few. 


She embarked her journey in the entertainment industry as someone who was daring, brave and strong. She used to be associated with a lot of wild stories/gossips but they never change my mind not to keep loyal for being a fan of her. 


I knew it. I made the right decision. After so many years, I have been witnessing her transformation from the old Neelofa to the new Neelofa. A true fan can relate this. 


Yesterday, she again moved the world by posting a picture of herself wearing "niqab". Her journey to be a better muslimah is really inspiring. She's got it all, guys. She has been/done with so many things in the world. All that make her a very highly influential person today. I wish one day I can be as strong as her and be a better version of myself.


I agree that, someday, there will be a point in our life where we feel like, what else do we want from the world? Dunniya? We are all going to die and next, what will be our place in the afterlife? Heaven or hell? 


The world is the place for us to chase the heaven. What Neelofa has been showing, done all the way to all of her followers is just one thing: encouraging everyone to chase Jannah, the heaven. She's striving herself to be a better Muslimah because she wants the Jannah for her. And if anyone from her followers does.the same thing like hers, the benefits are not just for her, but for the doers themselves. Isn't that good for everyone? 


Let's pray that we can also become a better Muslim/Muslimah some day. We shouldn't stop learning.

Desa Dairy Farm and The Magnificent Mount Kinabalu

I should have chosen the best photo, but the internet speed won't allow me at the moment. My friend, Jue The gelato ice cream I'm a nature lover. I love watching sunset, sunrise, mountains, oceans and beaches. Not to forget that I love greens. In short, anything to do with nature, I'm a full supporter. As a civilian who works from Mondays through Fridays, having a Public Holiday on Friday means the world to me. It is like having such a long weekend! Here's the story. It was an unplanned trip with my Sarawakian friend who currently works in Kota Kinabalu. She is Jue, who planned all this. At first, she just asked me if whether I'm free on that particular weekend. I said, I'm free and there you go. For any plans she planned, I simply said yes to her. It was on 31st March 2018 (Saturday) that Jue and her two other colleagues brought me for a road trip stretching from Kundasang to Kudat for the whole weekend. I can't recall for how ma...

Social Media detox

A week ago, I had deactivated all my social media (personal acounts) temporarily. I think this is quite good for my self-motivation.  Social media detox is good if you think you are so overwhelmed with whatever people or friends post on their accounts. Not beause feel envious, but it's good to get away from worldly matters and sickness.  I chose to deactivate my accounts because I felt bad about myself at that time. I mean, everything I saw was really not valuable. I had wasted my time seeing posts that are really unnecessary for me. This has taught me about myself too, that I should also not post anything unnecessary.  I will do this more often soon. At least once in a month. It's not that hard. Just spend one week away from SocMed, your life would be free from any negative thoughts/matters.  This is sooooo good. I feel good. 

Happy New Year and still single

Here I am, again. After such a long idle. Well, basically I have been very busy with my own stuff and things. Even during my ample time, I prefer to be getting lazy and wallowed. Here's the thing. The thing I wanna talk about which is my life, "being single". My life here in Kota Kinabalu is very simple. I live away from my family, initially my hometown, Sandakan. I do have friends here and most of them are married. Those who are still single do not really spend time mingle being single with me. They also have plans with their usual co-partner. Me? Always alone on weekends. Doing my own stuff and getting things like housechores done as planned. Sometimes not done at all. Well, sometimes my bro would call me to hangout with my nephew and s-i-l but it's not like every week. My other friends do not really always ask me out either. On certain occassions, yes they would. But I'm talking about the regular weekends. All I do is this and that. Watching Netflix lik...
