leisure

Earlier of the year when my request for the job that I wanted was still in pending,not only had I spent so much time on reading  and daydreaming but I also spent a lot of times on the telly that had me stumble upon this one movie which I had never bothered to watch before.I found it utterly endearing and goofy that I thought I could never get bored of it.It was'The Switch'...About two best friends.One wanted to have her own baby so badly but wasn't incline to be married so she decided to get pregnant with an artificial insemination( is that how you say it),but then she came to realise that the donor might have been her own bestfriend. 
I remember they premiered the movie(on StarMovies) earlier in January(which was way before they turned it into Foxmovies) and kept playing it over and over for weeks.I was engrossed by it that I was determined to not miss a show so I listed all the timing for this film and had myself prepare to watch it.This movie came out 2 years ago and merely now I came to know about it.It was so captivating and so sweet that I literally had gone to a point where I would set up my alarm at 5.45am in the morning only to watch it for the 7th time of that week.Ridiculous? but yeah I did it and I even jotted down for every single time I watch the movie.Monday at 3.am(check) Tues at 1.30pm check and so on.My sibling even got tired of me what's even worse was when they found out I could actually remember the things that some of the characters were going to say next.Whenever my siblings came across this movie they didn't dare to tell me hahaaaa



Anyhow, Jason Bateman is so handsome what more with him being Wally that makes him even more adorably charming.Every time I watch this film I'd fantasise that one day I will meet a guy that's just like him. O'wally!! (maybe I should call my future son with that name) Muhammad Wally no??yea? no? hahahaa.Just messing with ya! Anyway,he is another reason why I perpetually watch this movie.Did I mention that I found my fav song of the year from this film? Plus,Jennifer Aniston became my favourite actress on account of this film.Love the chemistry between the two of them <3

First health event

In order to go out to spend some time with my friends I was told to go earn my own money. What made me determine to get a job was not only because I wanted to kill bordome and gain some experience,it was mostly because I couldn't stand being known as the newly appointed maid(of the time). Therefore,I went looking for a job within tht month and eventually I applied(behold, I'm about to reveal my past here) for a part-time job at a frozen yogurt outlet near my house. Finally after weeks of waiting and hoping,I got a reply from the owner but before I got deeper into this let me share what other things I went through within those weeks of anticipation.


I remember quite vividly in one of those weeks while I was at home pancing around playing with my two cats.My mother came home and told me that I had to follow my aunt somewhere on that Saturday so I thought she was going to bring me, only me, for some sort of a movie outing to do some catching up so I got pretty psyched. As the day arrived, my dad just dropped me at this one hotel and there goes my aunty waiting for me at the main entrance. I went running ecstatically like a fat dog greeting its owner and the first thing my aunt said to me was 'YOU NEED A LOT  of  NUTRITION AQILA' I go 'huh' she went 'hang ni dah put on weight lah' and I painfully muttered 'ye lah'..

I followed her into the hotel,we managed to forge through the crowd into this one room filled with blasting music. As I made my way in,my-oh-my, I was amazed by the people in it. There were so many old people like in their 30's,40's and so on dancing around not to mention some were on their chairs too. I was like 'god pls dont let that woman or this woman falls' but yeah I just made my pace to my seat. Best part was I got to sit behind this gay couple.They were malay,the way they talk was hilarious I wanted to laugh everytime they opened their mouths.I remember one of them was poking the other only because he wanted to show a pic of this chiseled looking guy on his phone.What I saw caused me to gape in disbelief.It got me thinking what had got into the world now!


Enough about them, I realised what my aunt had got me into was a health talk. I just couldnt believe it I mean I had had enough of talk in highschool so what made me stay there was because of my aunt's ethusiasm. She was telling me about this and that and this was what she had been doing and she said that it could be something that I might want to do in the near future.She also told me not too think too much and even if I couldnt  really understand some of the things they were going to talk about just listen with an open mind. After 1 hour to another the talk was  getting good. They were people sharing health results through this nutrition and I thought hey, what they'd been consuming was what I had at home all these years but I never seemed to bother to take it seriously. I never knew this thing really helps a lot of ppl out there.


At one point I thought this was just a way for them to lure us into this but than, there were those fiew people that gave me second thoughts and made my little voice went on pause.I dont remember who they were but their stories were meaningful,the journey to find ways to recover and be healthier,They even displayed photos of them in the past which had touched me.What's even better was the business opportunity. I couldnt careless about it but I was indeed intrigued by some of the speakers who made it through this line. Although I was inspired by their extraodinary success I wasn't the least psyched to do this but what opened my mind 180 degrees on that day was to try to believe these people by having myself ago with it .If most of them can get healthier in fact obtain their healthy weight through this nutrition than why cant I. Did I mention that my aunt had introduced me to this one person.That was when I first met Aunty Rani the only person I knew there at that time. I remmeber she was psyched about the whole thing .While taking break,I looked around and noticed there were so many people happy to see one another.The energy,the vibe was.. wow! Even if I didn't know those ppl but I did enjoy though, seeing them smiling and screaked in sheer excitement. I wish I knew what brought them so close and happy.Was it the tea because I know the tea always puts me in a happy vibe. I mean its anti-stress or so I heard earlier hahaa. As the talk came to an end,I got a bit tired but overall I find it was worth listening to and I just cdnt wait to start losing weight.




me in jan :p

Begining

 It all started after prom about 6 months ago. Right after we hit New Year's marks the beginning of semi adulthood. That was when everybody started to talk about getting new experience in working part-time,showing off their newly driving license. Since the result was due in March only then we could determine which steps to take next but in the meantime, imagine what we had to do within those 3months. Like every other Malaysian teenagers who just finished their major exam(SPM) would stay home,eat,sleep,eat,sleep surf the net and everyday-tumblring. It was like a never ending school holiday. I had never felt so much freedom in my life. 

It was a bit weird because for the pass 13 years my mind had been programmed to input something new and in all of the sudden it went on pause. I remember waking up earlier of the year only to watch my siblings getting ready for their first day of school(after a month of holiday) what with me being left alone in this house with nothing to do. I could even relate to Rapunzel's life. Tucked inside this box and just get on with my mundane routine which was running the house chores,watch tv and do a lot of reading. I actually enjoyed the idea of staying home though,but at the same time I feel like I needed more.  Not to mention that I kept on wondering when would my life start.



told ya she's like methe only princess that I can relate toand she is 18 too *sigh*


Being at home for too long can actually drive me mad so it hit me to get a job. My parents were even glad to help me. Not too long after that, I got offered by some of my close family. It was quite some fancy jobs but I didn't think I can cope any of  it. I even accepted to go for this one seminar(not knowing it was going to end up boring) only to learn how to market yr business through online. After attending this made me realise that I can't work for something that I'm not interested  in and there's no way I can do it only to fulfill the other person's needs or wishes while I on the other hand feel unsatisfied. I clearly remember though that nearly everyday I prayed for something new to happen and for the next day to be better and so,January was just a month of seeking for the right job and  A MONTH FULL OF WONDER.

a fresh start

 This is my first post on my new account.The name is Aqila and I'm seventeen going on 18 this November. Happy to share my stories,new encounters,knowledge,serenedipities and all sorts of flim-flammery and tish-tosh heheee. I'm grateful for all the good things that have been happening to me since the beginning of the year(2012). So much had happened and so little energy to put it too words but fret not,I'll try alright. As I'm writting this I am currently listening to 'under the moonlight' by Grayson  Kessenich.Such an uplifting.moving song. Mainly for those who are fully attracted to someone or just plainly starting to grow love feelings for a certain special someone.haha well this is the song for any of you readers(well if I have any for now) who are likely to be as what I mentioned above. Till the next post than. Nighty night

 Thats me right smack in the middle there. and my sibling
sandwhiced behind me :p
