Purple Pretty Hearts

🏋️‍♀️🏃‍♀️💪

I think I am at the age where going to the gym is the only fun thing I have planned for the day.
And I am okay with it.

Oh yeah. Plus the ocassional date nites.
Those are boosters.

💁‍♀️♥️🙋‍♀️

A simple JB day with my best friend. Prata for breakfast, car wash, spa & massage, grocery run… and then 12 fresh oysters because apparently healing also comes by the dozen. 🤭🦪😂

But somewhere between all the makan, laughing and doing very aunty-adult things together, I realised how important it is to have people who grow with you.

We’ve done stupid things before. Made choices we’re not exactly proud of. We can sit down now, look back and say, “Ya Allah… kita dulu kenapa eh?” 😂 But we also know those chapters shaped us. They taught us what we no longer want to be.

At this age, friendship isn’t about having someone who will ikut whatever nonsense you’re doing. It’s having someone who reminds you that we’re both trying to become better women. Better in life, better in character, better in our faith.

The past can stay where it belongs. We’ve already learnt from it. Now we move forward, grow up, jaga hati, jaga iman, and hopefully become a little better than the women we were yesterday.

Same two girls. Just older, wiser… and apparently capable of finishing 12 oysters. 🦪🤍

Makin dewasa, makin simple requirement kita.
No need butterflies sampai gastrik.
Plot twist pun tak nak lagi. 😌
Cukuplah rasa selamat, tenang,dan tak perlu overthink 47 kali sehari.

Don’t know whether it’s age or experience teaching me this,
but apparently, peace is very, very attractive now.

No need drama pukul 7 kat TV3.

HD vs Blurry

Funny thing about social media… just because I post quite a lot, sometimes it looks like everything is HD 4K. 😂

Padahal macam gambar ni lah. Satu clear, satu blur. Sometimes nampak mcm tau…actually agak2 je. 🤭

I share quite a bit, yes. But still, it’s only little snippets of a whole life. Ada benda HD, ada benda blur, ada benda memang tak masuk camera roll langsung. And honestly, I quite like it that way. 😌

Currently in my soft launch era.
Trailer ada. Teaser banyak. Full movie relax dulu lah. Netflix pun kena subscribe, nyah. 😂

Moral of the story: social media is never the full picture.
Can see lah… but don’t start becoming Sherlock Holmes.

KaYeLL bound♥️

Came to KL for Exist, but somehow came home with so much more. 🤍

A weekend of little milestones checked, new memories made, lots of laughs, conversations in between Grab rides, good food, good music… and apparently, one complimentary influenza to bring home. 🤧😂

Very rom-com coded, actually. Apparently our ending needed a plot twist.

But jokes aside, thank you for being so thoughtful throughout the trip. For all the quiet little ways you remembered what I wanted, and for making the whole weekend feel easy and nice.

Nothing grand, nothing dramatic. Just good company, good memories, and a weekend I’ll remember very fondly. 🤍

10/10 would recommend the trip.
0/10 would recommend the influenza. 😂

Children Version Dumps ♥️.

I always tell myself, Ya Allah… I wish I had more children.
Apparently, Allah did answer that doa.
Just… not in the way I imagined.

Instead, He sent me a whole football team. 🤍
Over the years, I’ve been given something I never asked for, but will always be grateful for. The privilege of being part of their little bubble.

Not because I’m the “cool mum.” (That one, they can vote. 🤨)
But because they trust me enough to let me in. To see them at their loudest, their silliest, their most annoying, and sometimes… at their most vulnerable.

I know I don’t see 100% of who they are. Nor do I need to.
It’s enough to know they always know where home is.

This house has heard the loudest laughter, the most ridiculous conversations, FIFA arguments, birthday celebrations, random boys shouting, “Auntieeee!”, and the occasional “Eh cepat… Auntie balik dah!” 😂

To every one of you, thank you for trusting me.
Just know this…
If one day life goes sideways, you make a bad decision, or the world feels too heavy…

Come home. Come here.

I’ll defo scold you first. Confirm kena lecture. Maybe one eyebrow up. Then we’ll figure it out together.

Because that’s what family does.

To Irfan, Ilhan, and every one of your brothers who has ever walked through my gate, thank you for letting me be a tiny part of your growing-up years.

Now… spot yourself somewhere in these 20 photos. ❤️
