After many days of boredom, I finally got my computer back, reformatted and completely free from virus. Yahoo!! So no more downloading of KEYGEN for softwares, thinking to save my 10USD only to fork out the same amount to get repairs done for my pc after the infection.

Fifth day of Ramadan and I’m happily rejoicing the holy month. My nights are filled with Quran reading and Terawih prayers along with other sunnah prayers while the day is work as usual. Amazing, during other months, I could never stand until 10pm before falling dead on my feet and constantly think of my comfortable bed. But during the holy month, my bedtime falls after 12am each day, waking up at 4.45am for Sahur and then followed by another round of Quranic reading while waiting for Subuh to arrive.

I finally managed to get my clothes tailored and done after 4 years being kept in the closet. The authentic kain songket which is handwoven by the weavers and costing SGD$220 for the pink Kain Songket (4yards) and $180 for the purple Kain Songket Terengganu (2yards) is tailored into Baju Kurung and Baju Kebaya.

It was supposed to be completed a few months ago but since my dear aunty is being well, herself *snickers*, she finally got around to making it 1 week before Ramadan. Hehehe.. so much for bring old and having diebetes eh Cik Noi?

Oh my aunt in Muar is a great tailor and does all of my clothes up to my design and fits perfectly. The embroideries on some of my Baju Kurung were handmade by herself and she only does that for close relatives only due to the intricate precision and time costing it took to make a small design. How I really love her!

Below are some pictures of the Pink Kain Songket and Purple Kain Songket Terengganu.

I had actually wanted to make the pink one into Baju Kebaya Modern but then after much thinking, I wouldn’t want to waste my money in making an outfit only to wear it for a year, hoping that I wouldn’t add an extra pound so I can squeeze my way through for next year like my elder sister. *snickers madly*

See the gold thread designs on both outfits? Those are actually artificial gold threads, articulately handwoven to form what it is now. Not all handwoven Kain Songket has the same designs and colors.

As you can see, the purple songket on my left is only enough for a top. So I have to use kain batik lepas which I bought years back in Kelantan as my bottom. Whew!! The design comes out perfectly.

Hopefully everyone that is suppose to be around is around for Eid Mubarak especially the two little angels below. I really love to take their pictures especially when they are caught red handed doing something really, well… childish.

Yes these two are the VIP of the year and I’m eagerly waiting for their arrival.

Til, then I’m going to look around at the landscape gardening shops to figure out which items to get for my mom’s garden decor.

With the month of Eid coming to almost 3 weeks, I think its about time I put up all the snapshots I had taken with my handy-dandy camera.

All of the pics taken are strictly personal and no form of vandalism due to my itchy fingers are crossed. Ie its uploaded as it was taken.

I will however not be responsible to any form of reactions, sickness or hyperventilation whatsoever that will result into becoming a patient in the mental institute of health. So you have been warned!

C the cuteness of these people..
