Dari Jari Jari Halusku

Hello readers,

If you still remember, I was at Belum Rainforest Resort on April for Sheila Majid's concert. Read this entry in case if you have forgotten about it.

Apart from the concert, we also joined Sheila for Belum-Temengor Rainforest tour and its surroundings. It was an interesting trip organised by the EMKAY group where we learned more about life in the heart of the rainforest. So readers, lets read this entry till the end to find out what we did.

The journey started by gathered at the Reception area of Belum Rainforest Resort where we depart via a few 4WD.

Our first destination was to Kampung Semelor, an Orang Asli settlement situated within the Temengor Forest. Yes it is .. the Orang Asli village were situated deep inside the Belum Rainforest. The journey to the village was via off road route. We were told that this route is a log path where heavy lorries and machinery use this route to transport logs out from the forest. The same route is used by the Orang Asli children to go to school. The journey to school took them a few hours by foot.

Upon arrival, we were greeted by Tok Batin and the villagers. A warm welcomed speech were given. The visit were also accompanied by representatives from Yayasan Emkay, a foundation under Emkay Group which was founded on January 12, 2001 with the aim of easing the burden of the less fortunate without the limitation of race and religion, especially those living in remote areas or away from development flows.

The aid program under Yayasan Emkay is divided into five main categories, namely education and efforts towards raising awareness on the protection and conservation of the environment, healthcare, religion, sports development, and last aid towards community development and courtesy.

With Tan Sri Datuk (Dr.) Haji Mustapha Kamal bin Haji Abu Bakar as the Chairman of the Board of Trustees, Yayasan Emkay has contributed RM51.1 million (till September 2016) through various activities held under their noble vision.

Kampung Semelor, one of the Orang Asli village in Belum Rainforest. This village is very clean and well maintained.

After the welcomed speech, we visited the Toy Library, which was set in 2008 by Yayasan Emkay to help the orang asli children to have the opportunity to be exposed to education through play. The kids were excited to show us their skill - performing 'Sinaran' dance, one of Dato' Sheila's famous hit.

We then later visited Orang Asli women's sewing class and handicraft making centre. The women's sewing workshop is part of the Orang Asli Educational Program and is collaboration with the Ministry of Human Resources.

Together with the support of Ministry of Human Resource, Yayasan Emkay provide training and development skill to the Orang Asli women. They attended sewing classes and were taught how to do some handicraft. The handicraft are available for sale for visitors.

Jeans bag - creative, right. Should you have any unused jeans, you are encouraged to donate it to Yayasan Emkay. The donations will then channel to the Orang Asli community.

We walked further to our next destination ~ the weather was so clear, the sun smiled .. it was a bright, breezy day.

And we stopped for picture..

We later visited Madu kelulut area

Madu kelulut or honey from 'kelulut' bee ~ 'Kelulut' bee is among the 33 species of trigona bee species that have no sting and not harmful to humans. It is reported that the prolong intake of madu kelulut will give beneficial effect on health and restoration of chronic diseases. We tried made kelulut .. it is naturally sweet and nice!

Some nice moments of Sheila and her family captured by the photographer's lens, Ardalan Memarzia

Sheila also tried her skill with 'sumpit' and Yes .. she made it!

We then were later served with 'Kampung lunch' ~ Ikan pekasam, Nasi buluh, Ayam masak buluh, Sambal belacan dan Sambal Tempoyak.

We also visited Pulau Banding Research Centre, a centre responsible in carrying out research on flora and fauna of Belum-Temengor Rainforest and disseminates the information and helps facilitate to make the are a sustainable and eco-tourism destination. Sheila handed over a cheque of RM10,000 from her showcase proceeds to Dato Fazwinna Tan Sri Mustapha Kamal, Executive Director of Emkay Group to the foundation.

Sheila then setting her mark through a tree planting session to end her short, sweet trip at Belum Rainforest and its surroundings.

It was a memorable journey to discover the beautiful Belum-Temengor Rainforest and its surrounding, learned more about life in the heart of the rainforest and what Yayasan Emkay has contributed to conserve the nature and environment and community development.

Belum-Temengor Rainforest has everything to offer nature-lovers and holiday-goers ~ complete relaxation and serenity, stunning views and surroundings. It is a home to rare foliage and 14 of the world's most threatened mamals, and our rainforest is the oldest rainforest in the world, older than Amazon.

This is not my first visit to Belum-Temengor Rainforest .. every visit are special and I look forward to be there again. If you are a nature lover *like me*, this place is 'heaven' *love*

Hello readers,

Ramadan has passed and I am back with my exercise routine. I started exercising at mid 20's. Started with jogging at 'taman' with my small Aiman (at that time), followed by aerobics through CDs that I bought, I did it alone at the comfort of my own home and enhanced it by joining an exercise studio.

Exercise is more than just toning your abs, sexy body shape or weight loss. Other benefits of exercise that you should know :-

Grow your brain cells - exercise increases level of brain-derived protein which help to form new brain cells. It helps to improve overall brain performances, believes to help with decision making, higher thinking and learning.
Reduce stress - working out help manage physical and mental stress. It increases concentrations of norepinephine, a chemical that can moderate the brain's response to stress. Feeling tired after a long day at work? Do not give up. Get your outfit ready and sweat your body. Push yourself to a limit and enjoy your stress-free mind after the exercise. Win-Win!
Boost your mood/treat depression - Humans are the best creation by God. God created us perfectly with various emotions. Uncontrolled sadness, frustration, anger, dissatisfaction can lead us to a situation call depression. I was in such a situation before. The best reward I can give myself is Love. Exercise release mood-enhancing chemicals called endorphin. Endorphin are considered natural painkillers because it activates the receptors in the brain which minimize discomfort. Endorphin is a natural morphine. Treat your depression in a natural way i.e. through exercise. Show some love to yourself by doing exercise. Your body will appreciate it!
Keep your bones stronger - prevent osteoporosis
Boost immune system - 1 hour of exercise help to protect yourself against colds, flu
Increase blood flow - Exercise increase blood flow throughout your body which in return will make your skin better
Live longer - Fitness buff have better telomeres, the DNA that bookends our chromosomes and protect them from damage, which can slow the aging. Read more about how telomeres work here. Even though science proven that ageing can be reverse, prevent is still better, right?

As a Fitness practitioner, I have enjoyed various benefits of exercise. It shaped me to a better person today, physically and mentally.

Ever since May, I became Renaissance Hotel Kuala Lumpur Fitness Center. With its location which is not far from my home, this 5 star fitness center became my 'playgound' I spent hours at Renaissance Kuala Lumpur Hotel's fitness center, enjoying my workout from one machine to another.

I ran on the threadmill

I joined Aerodance class with Suraya every Saturday morning. The spacious and comfortable dance studio is a perfect place for me to shake my body *love*

I cycled

You will be given towels upon checking in

I love the spacious gym

Complete with weight plates, dumb bells, exercise balls, exercise bench, floor mat .. etc ..etc. Very neat and clean!

Not too bad if I say that this is one of my favourite spot for my weight lifting exercise

And another my favourite spot is located near the Fitness Center's entrance.

Working on my thigh at the Leg Press machine. Wake up muscles .

And some inner thigh muscle work out

The fitness center is also equipped with stretching tools/equipment which help me to stretch my tired muscle .. I LIKE!

Hello July.

We have passed half of 2016. We left June and welcomed July. July is my favourite month, a special month for my mom because on the 3rd day of July, 44 years ago she gave birth to a baby girl. She named her as Norzaila. That's me. I am the fourth in my family. I have 2 brothers and 1 elder sister. I was raise with lots of love from my family. I Thank my family for what I am today.

Time flies. I am forty four today. I have learnt and experienced a lot. I learnt about letting go when I have to walked away from things that I really want. I learnt to accept. I learnt that we must not be selfish in life. I became a candle, burnt myself to illuminate the lives of others. I crawled and woke up on my own during my falls. I wiped my own tears and stood up with pride. Life was never easy during that time. Never. But i made it. Today, 3rd July 2017, when i look backwards, I Thank God for all the hardships given. It shaped me into a better person today, physically and mentally. After all the struggle and fighting against the pain, I am now more calm while handling the pain. I am cool even with the storm in my heart. I smile even my heart breaks. I didn't talk about my pain. I just walk it with pride. I am a strong woman and I did it my way. I am blessed with every breath *sobs*

Thank you, Sweetie

Thank you my best friend Nurul Aini for the birthday treat. Thank you!

And on this special day, my wish is still the same .. Dear God, please give me good health .. so that I can showered my loves with love. Please keep on guide me and walk my life with me. I can't do it without you, God.

Hello pembaca budiman,

Masih ingat lagi Blog entry Misz-ella tentang drama bersiri Mak Cun dan Andainya Takdir yang ditayangkan menjelang Syawal baru-baru ini?

Fenomena Mak Cun telah menoktahkan musim ketiganya pada 14 Jun dengan tontonan sebanyak 11 juta sepanjang ia bersiaran. Manakala drama Andainya Takdir yang ditayangkan di slot Samarinda telah melabuhkan fenomenanya pada 22 Jun yang lalu dengan jumlah tontonan sebanyak 10 juta sepanjang ia bersiaran. Pencapaian ini sekaligus meletakkan slot Samarinda sebagai penanda aras ratings tertinggi dalam slot drama pukul 10 malam, seluruh negara.

Andainya Takdir, drama yang telah menjentik perasaan penonton telah mejadi bualan hangat di media sosial semenjak episod pertama telah meraih tontonan sebanyak 3.5 juta pada episod akhir. Drana ini juga telah trending satu dunia di laman sosial Twitter sepanjang siaran 16 episodnya.

Menurut Pengarah Drama Andainya Takdir, Along Kamaludin, “Pihak produksi amat bersyukur kerana para penonton telah memberi sokongan padu kepada drama ini. Kami percaya bahawa kejayaan drama ini adalah kerana nilai-nilai murni yang diterapkan dari naskah Andainya Takdir ini yang bertepatan dengan bulan Ramadan iaitu kesabaran, kasih sayang, kekeluargaan, dan kehidupan masyarakat majmuk. Pihak produksi juga berterima kasih kepada kesemua pihak yang terlibat, baik dihadapan tabir dan dibelakang tabir. Para pelakon telah memberikan komitmen yang amat memberangsangkan sehingga segala babak-babak yang sukar, telah menjadi mudah dan lancar.”

Sejujurnya, Misz-ella sendiri pun suka membaca perbualan hangat penonton drama Andainya Takdir di media sosial. Masing-masing turut meletakkan emosi mereka sendiri di dalam perbualan tersebut. Banyak pengajaran kita dapat dari drama ini, kan.

Manakala drama bersiri Mak Cun musim ketiga pula telah meraih 11 juta penonton bagi keseluruhan 21 episod dan mencapai tontonan sebanyak 3 juta pada episod akhirnya pada 14 Jun yang lalu.

Pengarah Mak Cun 3, Bade Hj Azmi mengulas, “Drama bersiri Mak Cun ini tetap meneruskan fenomenanya kerana menaikkan nama Negeri Kedah. Dari jalan ceritanya yang sentiasa membuktikan bahawa masyarakat luar bandar juga mampu untuk berjaya jika diusahakan dengan saluran yang betul. Kerana itu, kami percaya bahawa drama ini tetap relevan kerana nilai masyarakatnya yang tinggi. Oleh itu, kami berharap agar sokongan para penonton tidak akan putus terhadap drama Mak Cun ini.”

Mak Cun memang kelakar, sangat santai dan selamba. Misz-ella pun seronok tengok. Tahniah pihak pengurusan dan produksi serta pihak TV3 sendiri. Semoga lebih banyak drama-drama berkualiti akan disajikan kepada penonton di masa yang akan datang.

Hari Raya hari yang mulia. Hari raya hari yang bahagia ..

Begitulah lirik lagu Hari Raya kegemaran ramai, kan. Selamat Hari Raya .. walau sudah berbelas hari seperti biasalah, kita raikannya sebulan.

Hari raya sahajalah masa di mana kita akan menziarahi rumah sahabat handai dan taulan. Kalau tak kerana raya, mungkin agak berat kita nak jejak kan kaki ke rumah sahabat-sahabat kita. Realiti yang susah kita nak sangkal, kan.

Baru-baru ini Misz-ella ber hari raya dengan rakan-rakan 'fitness' or I also call them 'Exercise kakis' Sejujurnya, tahun ini paling kurang Misz-ella ber hari raya. Ini kali pertama Misz-ella keluar rumah selain dari rumah ahli keluarga.

Rakan fitness Misz-ella sebenarnya ramai .. berpuluh orang tapi Misz-ella paling rapat dengan geng ni lah. Kalau kita nak pergi ke rumah semua orang mungkin agak susah kerana kekangan masa, kan. Selepas beberapa perbincangan melalui grup Whatsapp, kami buat keputusan untuk ber hari raya secara 'potluck' di rumah Kak Yun. Idea datang dari Misz-ella, adik-adik yang taat mendengar kata ni menurut malah turut beri sokongan dengan sepenuh hati. Baguslah korang ni .. tu pasal Kak Ell sayang korang *muahhh .. kiss sorang-sorang*

Bermula jam 11.30 pagi rumah Kak Yun mula dipenuhi. Tetamu paling awal, Farhana kedua Misz-ella bertemankan Cik Eka lepas tu Ain dan bodyguards nya. Lepas tu berselang seli ucapan Assalamualaikum berkumandang di ruang pintu Kak Yun. Makin lama, makin ramai, makin meriah.

Farhana yang gorgeous dan Cik Eka yang lawa ..

Mek Da ku sayang .. lama Misz-ella kenal dia ni. Dari dia mula-mula berjinak menjadi Instructor Aerobic .. sekali dia masuk gear, dia terus tak pandang kiri kanan dah. Masih konsisten dalam bersenam, masih slim dan cantik seperti dulu

Azie ratu hutan. Hobi dia masak dan masuk hutan. Tiap-tiap minggu masuk hutan pun dia tak jemu

Akhirkata, Terima Kasih kepada Kak Yun (yang gorgeous sangat pakai baju oren sebelah Misz-ella tu) yang sudi benarkan kami gunakan ruang rumahnya sebagai tempat pertemuan kami semua. Lama kita tak jumpa, kan. Moga ukhuwah yang terjalin kekal sampai bila-bila. In Sha Allah. Amin.

Mungkin akan ada perjumpaan ke 2 selepas ini sebab ada di antara rakan seperjuangan yang masih belum sempat raikan Syawal bersama kami. Kita tengok macamana, ye.

What is Ella's life without exercise?
Boring. Sad. Bad mood. Body pain = Upset!

Exercise do contribute to my life. Since I started my exercise routine 20 years ago, I never look back. I remember how I started ~ I bought a beginner's aerobic CD by Denise Austin and started to follow the step at the comfort of my own home.

I later upgraded myself by joining group exercise studio when I moved to Sg. Buloh Country Resort, Selangor. I find it is more fun to dance in the studio and I love to spend time with friends who share the same interest ~ Dance!

Get your fitness outfit ready, proper exercise shoe, play the music, shake your body following the beat. Be comfortable with yourself and surrounding. Let loose your body and feel .. Laugh, smile, clap your hands (if you need too) and move freely.

Dance releases endorphin, a mood-enhancing chemicals which help to activates the receptors in the brain which minimize discomfort. I always feel fresher, my shoulder and head are lighter after finish my dance session.

Hello dance floor .. I am back!! Wednesday ended perfectly when I made my way to Rockafella Dance Studio, Sg. Buloh Country Resort for my dance workout session. I miss the dance floor. I have not visiting it since Ramadan and I miss my workout friends too *sobs*

I love skirt! Not too bad if I say that I am very girlish/womanly/feminine *auwww* and lady like. I had a collection of exercise skirts in various design and colours which I collected during the earlier days.

Group photo after an hour of Zumba Fitness Dance with Zin Zaharah with the world's latest hit. We toured the whole world tonight with Zumba. We went to Hollywood, Korea, China and Indonesia. We shaked, we shimmy, we jumped, we cha-cha ~ easy, fun and catchy steps. We enjoyed till it was time to say GoodBye. One hour is not enough, Can I have more please .. *hehe*

If you love yourself, reward it with exercise. Move and keep your body cell active. Think about choosing healthy lifestyle. Say NO to alcohol, say NO to cigarette, say NO to unhealthy food. Live naturally.We only have one life. Do the best and reward yourself only the best. Care, love and respect your body ~ with love, Ella.

Hello beautiful hair .. I love you. Day by day .. I am getting happier and proud of my 'crowning glory'. I never felt this proud before. I Thank Eka Roots Hair & Scalp Wellness for my shining, healthier hair today. Read this entry on my journey to a healthier hair with Eka Roots.

I recently went back to Eka for follicle treatment. Judith of Eka Roots recommended me this treatment when she noticed I have less hair at certain parts of my scalp. Not because of hair falls, but could be because of other reasons. We need to do a follicle test on you, Ella.

Hair follicle is a small cavity in the epidermis and corium of the skin, from which a hair develops. It exists within the dermis and epidermis and are found all over the skin, expect on the lips, palms of the hand, and soles of the feet.

To make it easier, imagine a vase of flowers ~ hair follicle is the vase and our hair is the flower's stem. To ensure the flowers grows in bloom, we need to provide the vase with a proper nutrients and vitamins. So as our hair.

I agreed to treat my scalp with Eka Roots. The session started with Hair follicle test which was conducted by Judith herself. You had a healthy, clean scalp. No dandruff or other flakes detected during the test. Your scalp need extra nutrients to help nourish your hair follicle. This will grow more hair and feed extra nutrients to the existing baby hair.

The ingredients used for the follicle treatment are originally by Eka ~ A mixture of Eka Roots shampoo, Eka Roots conditioner and Eka Roots follicle revitaliser

Amla powder was added too

OK lets know Amla more. Amla or Indian Gooseberry is an edible fruits which has a high content of vitamin C, 30% more than oranges.

Amla is a very powerful anti-oxidant fruit and packed with many vitamins, mineral, tannins, other helpful nutrients and it is beneficial for hair too.

Amla is used in many hair tonics because it enriches hair growth and hair pigmentation.

It strengthens the hair roots, maintains colour and improves the hair luster. Eating fresh gooseberry or applying its paste on hair roots improves hair growth and color. Amla oil is very popular in India because it has been shown to reduce the chances of hair loss and baldness. This quality is due to the carotene content of Amla, as well as its iron content and general antioxidant capacity, which reduces hair loss by not allowing free radicals to damage hair follicles or impact the hormones that can cause premature hair loss

The mixture

My hair was washed and the solution were applied to my hair scalp

It was applied carefully on every spaces

Massage gently

My hair were then steamed for 15 minutes. Wash, blow and style. I went back happily with a fresher scalp and a healthier hair.

I repeated the same procedures on Week 2. My hair progressed very well ~ the existing baby hair which were fed with nutrients on Week 1 are healthier, baby hair started to say 'Hello' but still shy *hello baby hair .. welcome to my life*

Hair follicle treatment at Eka Roots Hair & Scalp Wellness is priced at RM150 per treatment. The treatment procedures are :-

1) Hair follicle test

2) Hair wash

3) Apply the hair follicle solution

4) Scalp Massage

5) Apply treatment conditioner with jojoba and rosehip oil

6) Steam the hair for 10-15 minutes

7) Wash, blow and dry

The whole process will take approximately 1 hour 15 minutes

The cost per treatment is RM150 with a special package of RM900 for 8 treatments. It it recommended to repeat the treatment every 7-10 days in order to achieve a good result. However, each of us has a special and have a different scalp profile. The result may varies from one person to another. Some of you might have an earlier result and I am so excited to see mine after a month!!

Misz-ella with Evo, Director of Food & Beverage and Song Mei Lan, Director of Marketing Communications and Public Relations of Renaissance Kuala Lumpur Hotel

Last but not least, Thank you Renaissance Kuala Lumpur Hotel for having me. I always love Renhotel's hospitality.

Hello pembaca budiman,

Tak lama lagi kita dah nak habis dah Syawal kita. So macamana hari raya? Banyak rumah you all pergi? Ramai tetamu bertandang?

Pada Misz-ella, raya tahun ini paling sepi. Boleh dikira berapa rumah sahaja Misz-ella pergi dan boleh dikira berapa orang tetamu yang berkunjung ke rumah Raya kali ini. Tapi Alhamdulillah, meski tidak kunjung mengunjung, silaturrahim tetap terjaga.

OK Jom kita cerita tentang Juadah raya. Antara yang paling popular ialah Laksa Kedah ataupun Laksa Utara. Ingat lagi sebelum ini Misz-ella pernah kongsikan tentang Laksa Kedah Cik Eka?

Laksa Kedah Cik Eka best! Sangat best! Kuah secukup rasa sampai Misz-ella yang bukan peminat Laksa ni pun turut tergoda.

Laksa Kedah Cik Eka semakin mendapat perhatian ramai. Terima Kasih kepada pelanggan-pelanggan yang menempah Laksa Kedah Cik Eka sepanjang musim perayaan ini. Ke sana ke sini Cik Eka pergi menghantar Laksa tempahannya .. Alhamdulillah .. Misz-ella tumpang suka meihat anak muda bersemangat mencari rezeki menggunakan bakat yang ada. Misz-ella turut bagi sokongan dan dorongan .. malah kadang-kadang Misz-ella turut hulurkan bantuan dengan tolong Cik Eka hantar tempahan Laksa Kedah nya. Yang berat sama dipikul, yang ringan sama dijinjing. Saya dapat tolong sikit-sikit pun jadi lah, kan.

Selain dari secara berhidang, Laksa Kedah Cik Eka juga boleh didapati dalam bentuk pek individu. Buat sesiapa yang ingin mencuba Laksa Kedah Cik Eka, sila lah Whatsapp Cik Eka di 013-393 9130. Sila Whatsapp atau Whatsapp Audio call sahaja ye. Seperti biasa minimum order adalah sebanyak 20 pek dan caj penghantaran akan dikenakan. So jangan lupa, kalau nak buat jamuan dan mahu jamu tetamu dengan Laksa Kedah tak perlu bersusah payah, hubungi Cik Eka dan biarkan dia uruskan nya. Laksa Kedah Cik Eka best!!

Hello mata-mata cantik yang sedang membaca entry ini ..

Misz-ella baru-baru ini telah memanjangkan bulu mata yang sememangnya pendek itu sekali lagi, atau dalam bahasa yang lebih mudah 'Eyelashes extension'

Kali ini Misz-ella telah ke Pink Passion The Signature Salon di Sunway Mas, Petaling Jaya, Selangor. Not my first visit here, I have been to this salon a few years ago for my first eyelashes extension experienced.

Lepas ber hello-hello dengan Pui San, beautician di Pink Passion The Signature Salon yang sangat friendly, Misz-ella diberitahu yang 'Kita akan pasang eyelashes extension yang panjangnya 8mm dan 10mm ke bulu mata asal Misz-ella'. Sebab Misz-ella rabun dan kadang-kala perlu berkaca mata, so eyelashes yang panjangnya 11mm tu tak berapa sesuai untuk Misz-ella. Terlalu panjang. Paling menarik kali ini ialah eyelashes extension yang akan dipasang adalah dari jenis 'cluster' ataupun berangkai. Ini akan membuatkan bulu mata Misz-ella lebih lebat, lebih menarik dan lebih cantik!

Proses memasang eyelashes extension tidaklah memakan masa yang terlalu lama. Lebih kurang sejam sahaja. Ianya tidak menyakitkan, malah Misz-ella boleh 'terlelap' sekejap masa Pui San pasang eyelashes extension tu. Terlalu penat, barangkali .. *hehe*

Ini bukan Misz-ella ye. Pic credit to Pink Passion The Signature Salon's FB

Memandangkan Misz-ella hanya menggunakan eyelashes bersaiz 8mm dan 10mm, jadinya ia nampak lebih asli (natural) dan tidak terlalu 'dramatik'. Sekali pandang mesti orang ingat ini bulu mata asli Misz-ella, kan. Alahai .. bulu mata akak kecik-kecik, comel dan pendek je dik .. macam tuannya jugak ...

Melentik naik, kan

Dibuat dari 'silk' atau sutera, ianya lebih lembut, ringan dan 'naturally curved'. Paling bagus ialah ianya sangat tahan lasak. Misz-ella boleh berlari, melompat bintang ber ratus-ratus kali, dan ber basikal berkilo-kilo metre di gym tapi eyelashes extension Misz-ella tetap kekal di situ. Tak gugur pun. Kualiti eyelashes extension yang dibuat dari sutera ini adalah sangat baik dan ia juga tahan panas ~ Lepas ber gym, Misz-ella boleh ke Sauna dengannya.

Kenapa saya suka ber eyelashes extension? Kerana Misz-ella jarang nak bermekap tebal. Seringkas yang boleh je mekap Misz-ella kerana saya selalu mengejar masa. Eyelashes extension banyak membantu menyerlahkan penampilan Misz-ella walau tidak bermekap tebal. Mudah kerana tidak seperti bulu mata palsu mahupun maskara, ia tidak boleh dibawa ke tempat tidur malah perlu dicuci. Kita boleh tidur dengan eyelashes extension ni, boleh basuh muka seperti biasa, boleh pergi 'swimming' dan sebagainya tanpa merosakkan keadaan eyelashes extension tersebut. Senang, kan.

Eyelashes extension ini juga sangat tahan lama. Kebiasaannya ia akan kekal selama 4 hingga 6 minggu sebelum ia gugur dengan sendirinya iaitu apabila bulu mata yang asal semakin memanjang. Harga eyelashes extension ini sangat berpatutan iaitu RM88 sahaja (untuk 'single layer') manakala untuk yang 'double layer' seperti Misz-ella, harganya ialah RM188 sahaja. Kalau mahu lebih jimat, beli Pakej 10 kali yang turut ditawarkan di Pink Passion The Signature Salon ini.

So pembaca-pembaca budiman, kalau mahukan mata cantik, menawan seperti Misz-ella, hubungi Pink Passion The Signature Salon hari ini di no. telefon 03-78057285 atau terus ke Salon Pink Passion yang terletak di No. 37-1 Jalan PJU 1/3C, Sunway Mas Commercial Centre, Petaling Jaya, Selangor.

Dapatkan khidmat nasihat dari beautician terlebih dahulu tentang corak eyelashes extension yang sesuai untuk anda kerana ianya boleh di 'customised' mengikut kesesuaian masing-masing dan jangan ragu-ragu. Ianya adalah selamat kerana dibuat dari sutera. OK Misz-ella dah habis berkongsi dengan you all semua. Cubalah mana tau nanti berganda-ganda lebih lawa dari Misz-ella. Wahhh .. saya tumpang bangga lah!

Hello Rabu,

Hari Rabu memang hari kesukaan Misz-ella terutamanya malam kerana hari Rabu ialah hari di mana Misz-ella akan menari di lantai tari.

Pre-workout Selfie with Aishah. Aishah ni Misz-ella kenal semasa muda lagi .. masa tu Aiman masih di tadika. Alhamdulillah masih bersahabat sehingga kini. Ukhuwah itu indah.

Post workout foto dengan Zin Zaharah, Cikgu kelas Zumba/Fun Dance setiap malam Rabu. Seronok kelas kak Zaharah, sangat berinteraktif, muzik sangat catchy, step/bunga tarian simple tapi menarik .. kelas Kak Zaharah di Rockafella Dance Studio, Saujana Utama sesuai untuk semua peringkat umur dan tahap stamina. Misz-ella memang dah kategori high-impact. Kalau lagu slow, Misz-ella rasa macam nak tidur je lepas tu fikiran melayang, berangan lebih kang. Orang kata, jangan pandang belakang .. tapi kalau Misz-ella toleh ke belakang, nampaknya dah hampir 20 tahun Misz-ella bersenam. Dari umur pertengahan 20an, sekarang saya sudah 44 tahun. Alhamdulillah. Syukur Allah beri tenaga, Allah kekalkan minat dan Allah beri rezeki dalam bentuk kasih sayang dan persahabatan melalui sahabat-sahabat fitness saya ini. Walau ramai orang baru, orang lama seperti Misz-ella, Angah, Mieza, Mek Da tetap gagah menghiasi lantai tari.

Say Hello to Lydia .. Bila tengok Lydia, teringat zaman Misz-ella bersenam semasa muda dulu. Lepas kerja, kelam kabut bergegas pulang ke rumah, sediakan makan malam untuk Aiman, hantar dia ke tuisyen lepas tu Misz-ella ke kelas aerodance. Habis kelas, bergegas pulang ambil Aiman habis kelas. Bukan senang menjadi 'Hawa'. Hawa kena jaga Adam dan zuriatnya, Hawa kena bantu Adam mencari nafkah, Hawa uruskan hal-ehwal rumahtangga, Hawa juga kena bersenam untuk memastikan dia sentiasa sihat dan cergas agar dia boleh berbakti kepada keluarga tercinta. Walau Hawa penat menguruskan semua hal-ehwal rumahtangga dan kerjaya, percayalah jika niat kita baik, Allah akan permudahkan urusan kita. In Sha Allah.

Dan tiba-tiba .. Kc jom kita ambik gambar. Ohhhh .. Alin rupanya. Misz-ella gembira tiap kali nampak muka baru di lantai tari ni. Muda-muda dia orang semua but Alin is not new to me. Dah 4-5 tahun kami berkawan tapi Alin masih baru di lantai tari. Selamat Datang Alin. Semoga istiqomah dan terus bersenam menjaga kesihatan. Kalau agak-agak datang virus 'Malas' pandang wajah suami, pandang wajah anak-anak .. automatik akan datang rasa semangat untuk bersenam dan jadi lebih sihat .. demi mereka ~ kesayangan kita. Sebab masih banyak yang nak kita curahkan kepada keluarga kita .. nak berbakti kepada mereka maka kita tanamkan azam agar kita sentiasa sihat. Doa sahaja tak cukup kena lah usaha, kan. Jom kita bersenam.

Satu pesanan Misz-ella kalau nak konsisten dan kekal lama dalam senaman ~ Tanamkan niat nak sihat dan nak cergas .. itu yang penting. Kurus tu bonus la, kan. And please remember .. Exercise is suppose to be fun .. not stressful dan bukan memenatkan. Enjoy exercise ~ smile, laugh, clap your hands, shake your body .. move .. interact with the rest. Jadikan senaman sebagai sebahagian dari amalan gaya hidup sihat . Kalau kita tak sayang dan jaga diri kita, siapa lagi, kan. OK ..Misz-ella dah habis berkongsi dengan you all semua. Nak pergi buat kerja yang lebih serius.

Buat mereka yang ingin sertai Kelas-kelas senaman di Rockafella Dance Studio, Saujana Utama, sila hubungi Angah di 012-332 7472. Jom kita sihat sama-sama, demi kita dan kesayangan kita.

Hello pembaca budiman,

Pernah terfikir untuk menikmati hidangan tradisi Melayu asli secara 'fine dining' di pusat bandar dalam persekitaran hotel 5 bintang?

Royale Chulan Kuala Lumpur memperkenalkan Restoran Bunga Emas, sebuah restoran mewah yang pertama di pusat bandar yang lokasinya terletak di Lantai 1, Hotel Royale Chulan, Kuala Lumpur.

Dengan keluasan lantai sekitar 9,000 kaki persegi, Restoran Bunga Emas boleh memuatkan 100 orang dalam suatu masa.

Susun atur Restoran Bunga Emas ini dibataskan dengan panel dinding yang membenarkan pencahayaan semula jadi menembus ke dalam. Warna rona natural digunakan, membangkitkan suasana redup dan nyaman serta mewah. Restoran Bunga Emas sentiasa menjadi pilihan syarikat korporat dan individu yang mahu menjamu selera hidangan tradisi Melayu asli secara 'fine dining'

Restoran Bunga Emas turut menyediakan 2 Bilik Bersila yang di tata hias dengan meja separa rendah, manakala kusyen mewah dijadikan alas duduk bersila yang bakal memberi keselesaan kepada tetamu yang ingin menjamu selera cara tradisi Melayu ini.

Kali pertama ke Restoran Bunga Emas, Misz-ella terpesona dengan hiasan di sini. Bersesuaian dengan namanya, motif serta rona emas dipilih untuk hiasan siling dan dinding. Cantik!

Turut disediakan ialah bilik-bilik peribadi yang dikhaskan buat mereka yang mahukan suasana yang lebih intim tatkala menikmati hidangan.

Bunga Emas menyediakan hidangan tradisi Melayu asli yang disediakan mengikut resepi turun temurun dari generasi dulu hingga kini bagi mengekalkan keunikan rasa hidangan tersebut.

Menurut Chef Hairulnizam yang berpengalaman selama 12 tahun dalam bidang masakan tradisi Melayu asli, antara menu kegemaran pelanggan di sini termasuklah Ikan Pais Kelapa, Rendang Daging, Ayamg Gulung Kurma Merah, Otak-Otak, Sup Ketam, Gulai Itik Serati, Ayam Masak Lemak Nangka, Siakap Tiga Rasa, Jeruk Amra, Sup Ayam Berempah, Udang Rempah Ratus dan Pucuk Paku Goreng. Manakala bagi hidangan pemanis mulut pula, Pulut Hitam dan Ciku Gulung sentiasa menjadi pilihan pelanggan.

Hummm .. teruja pulak Misz-ella dengan penerangan Chef Hairulnizam. Jom tengok apa yang Misz-ella dan rakan-rakan cuba di Restoran Bunga Emas ini.

Pembuka Selera/Appetizer ~ Kekapis Jeruk Amra

Hidangan pembuka selera yang menggunakan kekapis sebagai bahan utamanya manakala ulam pegaga, ulam raja disertakan dengan sambal mangga dilengkapkan dengan Jamaian Plum Sauce. Menarik dan sangat membuka selera.

Sup/Soup ~ Sup Ayam

Sup Ayam yang dimasak menggunakan rempah ratus Melayu dan disertakan dengan lobak merah, kentang dan suhun. Sangat ringan, tidak terlalu berempah atau pekat tetapi terasa rempah ratusnya .. cukup untuk membangkitkan selera kita sebelum kita ke hidangan seterusnya ..

Antara hidangan utama/main course yang boleh didapati di dalam Menu ~ Ayam Masak Lemak Nangka, Udang Rempah Ratus, Rendang Daging dan Pucuk Paku.

Juadah-juadah enak di Restoran Bunga Emas ini boleh dinikmati samada secara 'A La Carte' atau Set Menu. Set Menu ditukar setiap minggu bergantung kepada Promosi Bulanan dan harga bermula dari RM130 nett seorang (minimum 2 orang)

Ayam Masak Lemak Nangka

Menggunakan 'boneless chicken', masakan kegemaran masyarakat Melayu ini cukup lemak dan sangat lembut nangka mudanya. Tidak pedas, mungkin bagi disesuaikan dengan selera majoriti pelanggan yang berkunjung ke sini.

Udang Rempah Ratus

Udang digoreng terlebih dahulu dan dimasak bersama santan dan susu cair. Kata Chef, juga dikenali dengan nama 'Udang Masala'. Sedap!

Rendang Daging

Persis seperti masakan bonda tercinta, dagingnya sangat lembut dan rempah ratusnya lengkap. Secukup rasa.

Pucuk Paku Goreng Cili

Pucuk Paku yang digoreng dengan cili. Ringkas tapi cukup untuk melengkapkan hidangan kami di sini.

Pemanis mulut/Dessert ~ Pulut Hitam

Yang ini sangat menarik .. Pulut hitam yang dimasak dengan gula melaka dan dihidang bersama susu cair dicampur dengan santan dan kepingan badam.

Bila dipecahkan seperti ini, mirip seperti makan Bubur Pulut Hitam. Tidak terlalu manis dan tidak terlalu berlemak. Enak dan secukup rasa.

Misz-ella dan rakan-rakan bersama Chef Hairulnizam

Terima Kasih kepada Royale Chulan Kuala Lumpur kerana menjemput Misz-ella untuk merasai pengalaman menjamu selera di Restoran Bunga Emas ini. Satu pengalaman yang sangat menarik dan dalam hati dah berniat 'mahu datang lagi'

Restoran Bunga Emas dibuka setiap hari pada waktu makan tengahari (12:00 tengahari hingga 2:30 petang) serta makan malam (6:30 petang hingga 10 malam). Buat mereka yang ingin mencuba pengalaman menikmati hidangan tradisi Melayu secara 'fine dining' di sini, sila hubungi Restoran Bunga Emas di talian 03-2688 9612.

Hello pembaca budiman,

Slot Lestary, TV3 dah mula bawakan drama bersiri terbaru bertajuk Miss Kapten Cikgu Waiz mulai dari 21hb Julai haritu.

Menampilkan pelakon jelita, Neera Azizi sebagai pelakon utama, drama berkisah tentang dilema memilih pasangan bercinta menjadi fokus utama drama 13 episod terbitan Country & Universal Sdn Bhd arahan Yeop Hitler ini.

Terperangkap dalam dua situasi ~ antara cikgu kepada adiknya yang bergaji sederhana tetapi lengkap budi pekertinya atau seorang juruterbang yang bergaji besar tetapi terlalu mengongkong, drama ini turut dilakonkan oleh Erwin Dawson, Amir Nafis, Daniella Sya, Afieq Shazwan, Fadil Dhani, Lizza Abdullah, Nina Fazurina, Bella Dowanna, Zera Hariz dan Zalfa Zin.

Menurut Pengarah Drama Miss Kapten Cikgu Waiz, saudara Yeop Hitler,“Drama ini amat berlainan dari drama lain kerana ia menampilkan juru terbang wanita sebagai watak utama berbanding dengan kebiasaan drama-drama lain yang sering menampilkan lelaki sebagai watak utama. Dalam kegemilangan watak utama itu, tersirat juga konflik keluarga yang membebankan fikirannya.

Selain itu, drama ini menarik kerana kami mendalami ilmu penerbangan juru terbang daripada juru terbang sebenar, sehinggakan Neera Azizi sendiri meluangkan 2 jam untuk mempelajari peralatan di kokpit kapal terbang sebenar. Ini lah cabaran besar kami kerana kami tiada asas ilmu penerbangan, tetapi dengan hasil kerjasama semua pihak kami dapat harungi cabaran tersebut dengan baik.”

“Sesi penggambaran drama juga selesai tepat pada masanya, iaitu selama 28 hari. Sebagai pengarah Miss Kapten Cikgu Waiz, saya serta kru produksi telah lakukan tugas kami sebaiknya dan kami berharap agar para penonton dapat ikuti drama ini dari episod pertama sehingga tamat episod 13.” ujarnya lagi.

Mengisahkan seorang juruterbang, Khalisha (Neera Azizi) yang tidak mahu bercinta kerana trauma dengan tindakan ayahnya, Pak Megat yang telah berkahwin baharu dengan seorang wanita yang bernama Sofea Gebu. Khalisha yang mempunyai kecantikan semulajadi dan bertugas sebagai juru terbang, menjadi kegilaan ramai juru terbang di lapangan terbang tempat Khalisha berkerja. Namun, Khalisha tidak pernah memberi perhatian kepada mereka kerana tidak percaya pada cinta.

Khalisha juga membantu ibunya, Mak Eton untuk menyara adiknya, Kamarul yang bakal menduduki peperiksaan SPM tahun ini. Rezeki sentiasa memihak kepada keluarga Khalisha kerana Kamarul juga mewarisi kepintaran kakaknya dimana Kamarul merupakan pelajar cemerlang di sekolahnya. Walau bagaimanapun, Kamarul sentiasa tidur di sekolah kerana tertekan dengan keadaan ibunya yang sering bersedih ditinggalkan Pak Megat.

Di sekolah Kamarul, Cikgu Waiz (Erwin Dawson) seorang guru yang tampan dan berwawasan, juga sering menjadi kegilaan guru-guru wanita di sekolah itu. Cikgu Waiz merupakan guru dan abang kepada rakan karib Kamarul, Wahida. Takdir menemukan Cikgu Waiz dengan Khalisha ketika Cikgu Waiz baru pulang daripada berkursus di mana mereka bertembung di lapangan terbang dan secara tidak sengaja, Cikgu Waiz menumpahkan secawan kopi di baju uniform Khalisha. Perkenalan mereka dilanjutkan di sekolah setelah Wahida mengetahui Khalisha adalah kakak kepada rakan karibnya, Kamarul, lalu Wahida ingin menjodohkan Cikgu Waiz dengan Khalisha.

Namun, kerana paras rupa Khalisha dan Waiz yang begitu menawan, mereka sudahpun mempunyai peminat mereka yang tersendiri dan tidak akan berhenti sehingga Khalisha dan Waiz menjadi milik mereka. Di lapangan terbang, Khalisha sentiasa diperhatikan oleh Kapten Ghaz, manakala di sekolah, Cikgu Waiz sedang digila-gilakan oleh Melati. Selain itu, hati Cikgu Waiz juga sering diburu oleh rakan seperjuangannya ketika di universiti, Julia.

Apakah kesudahan drama Miss Kapten Cikgu Waiz ini? Bakal bertemu jodohkah Khalisha dan Cikgu Waiz? Atau Khalisha bakal meneruskan sikap dingin beliau?

Dapatkah keluarga Khalisha mencapai keharmonian mereka semula? Segala-galanya bakal terjawab dalam drama Lestary Miss Kapten Cikgu Waiz setiap hari Rabu hingga Jumaat bermula 21 Julai, pada pukul 9 malam. Untuk maklumat lanjut, anda boleh layari laman web www.tv3.com.mydan ikuti juga laman sosial Facebook, Twitter, Instagram dan youtube TV3 iaitu @TV3Malaysia.

So peminat-peminat drama bersiri, mari kita sama-sama tonton drama Miss Kapten Cikgu Waiz ini dan saksikan sendiri bagaimana Khalisha menyelesaikan konflik hidupnya.

I cooked my Medium Beef Steak in one of my lazy days ~ Lazy to went out for lunch since I was so busy with my paper works in front of my PC. Marinate 180gm beef with blackpepper, paprika and salt. Grilled it your way. Cut, served and enjoy with salads. Yummy!

Grilled Blackpepper Chicken ~ Since I am now on 'detox' diet .. my I cooked my meal without sugar, low salt and with less usage of cooking oil. Marinated a slice of chicken with salt and black pepper, grill to perfection ~ Served with salad. To fulfill my cravings for something 'sweet' I added some cranberries and oranges in my meal. Yummy and healthy!
