Weekend Look

FOTD - November 10, 2008

Arggghhhh...why is my morning always hectic? My brain is probably brainwashed by images of moms reading papers and having hot steaming coffee on the dining table.

Instead, my morning started with me waking up the boys, Aca was as usual the last time to get up, then banged the window to get the breadman's attention, dived into the purse for bread money, then went downstairs to start banging the pots (eh eh...I always loved that phrase : banging the pots), cooking up fried noodle (with angel hair pasta, minced beef and soy sauce), laying out the uniforms for the kids, had a quick second to slurp my hot coffee, distributing the breads for snack at school, then compiling school papers for Hanif to study in the evening, rushing all the boys to brush their teeth, screaming at their father because he took 1 hour to get ready, oooohhh I just had headache typing this all up. I had some extra minutes to put my feet up before rushing Baby to the bathroom and getting her ready for school, then brushing her hair, making sure she had everything for school, then getting myself ready.

So here it is, I tried using my long-neglected pigments; pinked mauve and lily white on lids, and then contrast eye shadow for more definition. I then brushed Orgasm and PAC brown blush and tried applied Avarice lipglass, Oriflame lipgloss (blah), and Oh So Scarlet lipstick.

EID Celebration - Oct. 1

Sorry for such random postings, as I said before, there were tons of photos I would upload that was taken during the holiday.

Early at 5 a.m on October 1st, I woke up the kids to get them ready for the morning prayer. We went to Arcici Sport Field since Uda thought that place was quite nice. I disagreed. The rows weren't managed well, so when everyone stood up, instead of having tidy rows we had crooked lines. It was a bit disorganized. Not to mention the lady in front of me, who carried a baby, suddenly got out of her praying mat and just moved to the end of the line, causing other women to scrambles hurriedly to fill her spot. In Islam, when we pray together, it's important that there's no blank space in between prayers as it's thought it would be filled with the devils.

I had my period so I just sat amongst the prayers, next to my lovely 5-year-old Kasih. She looked like an angel in her pink outfit.

The night before, at my dad's house, we all went out and had a firework party. It's something that the authority frowned upon and there were actually a fine if you're caught doing this, but Eid festival without fireworks were no fun! Besides, it's an event that they're going to remember till they're old.

EID FOTD - Oct 1

This was taken during the Eid sermon. I did a natural look using my Dior mini quint over MAC Layin' Low paint pot. 

Kasih was wearing her new pink praying outfit. She has become quite camera-shy lately, hence the pouty face.

We are the Goofy goofy family

Believe me when I said this, I am a pretty serious mother, not such a goof-off, only a dose of craziness every now and then.

But, add my kids to the mix, and my Peter Pan hubby, you got these :
