T-Rex's birthday trip to Milan

Team Ariana was in Milan over the weekend. We stayed at a colleague's residence.. This is the host, Toni... T-Rex's good friend... also Consul-General based in Milan... so that's HIS EXCELLENCY Mr. Toni to you hehe.. Very nice guy... We felt very much at home with his kind hospitality...

The awesome view from his balcony...

We played ping pong in the ballroom... Time to show some ninja skills :p

Heheheh...
This was at dinner... everyone was exhausted! We walked for almost 4 hours.. with only 20 mins break in between

Skitzo - Despicable Me

I'm not beautiful. But I know I have a big heart. That's all that matters..

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

Something to think about..

Natural Wonder..

Stevie Wonder addressed the WIPO High-Level Segment last Monday... he sang a little and gave a very touching speech... about access to information for the visually impaired and disabled...

Lyon owh Lyon.

Halal KFC in Chambéry!

We went on a hunt for KFC in Chambéry, about an hour's drive from Geneva... We got lost for a while...

Hence I was in a terrible mood (sorry mum and dad - my period didn't help either) but finally a very nice guy led the right way with his car. I wanted to thank him but he left quickly (God please bless this man and his family, wherever he is... AMIN).

So we eventually found it... had a meal and took away a bucket of chicken wings!

Raya @ Collex residence

I would like to thank my mum, dad and toni for helping with the raya preparations, it would not have been possible without you... It really feels like raya this year with you in Geneva...

Thank you to all guests who brought these wonderful gifts!!! So thoughtful!!

Hari Raya Aidilfitri falls on Friday, 10 September 2010 in Geneva!

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri

It is very sad indeed to see Ramadhan come and go... The greatest Muslim month of the year... Another year of not meeting with Laylat al-Qadr... the one night worth more than a thousand months.. Hopefully we will meet one day in the near future, AMIN...

Before Hari Raya approaches, let me post my sincerest apologies for all my mistakes and wrong-doings. Please forgive me if i did or said anything to hurt you in the past... I pray God bless you and your loved ones... Minta Maaf Zahir dan Batin.. Be safe y'all

I want to catch a 400 pound fish

No swimming!

Humans love talking to each other and about each other.

And at the moment, we seem to be a hot topic of conversation... for whatever reason.

There are also a few people out there who seem to think they have it ALL figured out. They insist on predicting someone's future by dictating examples of other people's 'experience'.

Maybe they're envious, maybe they're bored.. But one thing is for sure... i find it.. entertaining.. cos they think we're important! c'est cool!

Needless to say, it's a useless exercise.

It all boils down to God's Will. Full stop.

A Message To All Haters!

And finally, for all you haters out there.. Remember... I love you.. LOL
