The Empire Winner

JuLeZz AND I CELEBRATED OUR 1 YEAR WEDDING ANNIVERSARY on the 18th of May at The Manggis Ballroom. It was such a grand celebration. There was a fashion show for kids, talent show for the teens and some other games to cater the rest of the age groups.

One of the best parts of the day was the Grand Lucky Draw which included a night stay at the Empire Hotel, a TV, dinner for two at the Empire Hotel Pantai restaurant, high tea for two at the Empire Lobby and a wall clock.

Yesterday, we got to see the winner of the Empire Hotel night stay at the hotel itself! We were invited to join the fun - though briefly. The winners invited the rest of our family members as well to join in the fun! Check out some photos here at shutterspeech.com's gallery!

Senja Nan Merah

Masihkah kita termangu di bawah pepohon itu
Ketika hujan melunturi danau yang terusang
Tidak pernah dibilang hari
Hanyalah debar yang terasa… terasa

Setiap hari dibuai mimpi yang terindah
Dengan menghitung senja merah dihujung sinar
Mencipta kebeningan rahsia
Pada sehimpun kenangan
Menyimpul satu makna
Di ruang yang lurus ini

Haruskah…
Kita mencari pada gunung dan lurah
Liku-liku curam insani
Haruskah…
Kita mencari puncak mengilau cahaya
Dalam hidup seribu warna

Dibawah teriring ungkapan
Pada sebuah wajah
Yang lara kesepian
Haruskah kita mencari suatu
Senja dalam kepedihan

(#)
Haruskah…
Kita mencari dalam senja begini
Kembali kita bertemu

Haruskah (haruskah)…
Kita mencari dalam simpati wangi
Kembali kita bersama

Membilang kenangan yang abadi
Seperti menuggu mentari senja
Menghilang perlahan-lahan disebalik
Awan yang merah

(repeat #)

Dibalik awan yang merah
Dibalik awan yang merah
Dibalik awan yang merah



PS: Song's been in my head ever since JuLeZz's uncles played it at their gig during her cousin's wedding celebration, JuLeZz sang it and I was determined to try it out since I've listened to it before. And damn, now my voice is going away. Great song though.

18.5 Again!

1 YEAR!!

Today's been a hell of a day. Busy busy. But sad that it's almost over. Especially the celebration. I wish it could've lasted longer.

Will update the clueless another time. Right now, I have to open our one year wedding anniversary presents!!

PS: Photo from Nisa's cake last year.

Poll: Do You Notice Advertisements?

I was reading the newspaper earlier this morning and while doing that, someone pointed out a huge ad on the same page that took a third of the page's space. I asked myself, "how in the world did I miss that?" Then I realised that I don't really notice nor do I care about ads, be it on the newspaper or blogs but then I put up adverts on my blogs. It made me think, how well do ads work? And how many really attract the eyes of readers? Don't get me wrong, some ads catch my eyes but only the good ones.

So I thought, for the sake of a simple research, I'd put up a universal poll on all my blogs and ask you guys to vote if you notice them at all. So where ever you are reading this post from, your vote will count on my other blogs. Thanks for voting!
