I just feel (personally), it is better to go into 2010, the way I have been the past few years. Yes just carry on the way we are.
I believe good things come to those who are relaxed & calm (well that's me anyway).
Anyway, here are some activities that have made my 2009, that I would like to share with my friends here.
There are many other activities, but hey, I'd just save them as it would only take you away from your New Year celebrations then eh...LOL! Go, celebrate!
So here's wishing my wonderful friends
Happy New Year!
Nawem (National Association of Women Entrepreneurs) Gala Nite, 21st Dec.
I was invited to Nawem Gala Nite & had a good time, where I made lovely new friends. It is always the intellectual exchanges with interesting people that would make any function eventful for me.
Nawem Gala Nite was graced by Datuk Seri Shahrizat Jalil, Minister of Women, Family, and Community Development.
We were entertained by the superbly talented Dato Khatijah Ibrahim & a new talent to me who has incredible voice, Rizal Ridzuan, & we were pleasantly treated to a fashion show by iKartini. The host for the night was Sarimah Ibrahim.

Nasi Bukhori at Yan Ali's.
All in all, I know I will have to walk a few extra miles on the treadmill for not being able to resist all the good food & desserts.
Love the idea of making nice new friends too from her other networks.
Thanks Yan. Big Hugs.

Coffee with creative & innovative individuals.
Recently I had coffee with three very creative & innovative individuals, Maryam Samirah (Bijou Bazaar) & Mariq Marzuki & Khairul HAkimin (both involved with Mariq Diamonds).
It is inspiring & refreshing to share life's perspectives with one another & in doing so we tend to re-smoothen our life's rough edges based on each other's aspirations & perspectives as to how we see things in general.
Thought for the day:
'In life, one should never stop learning from one another.'
Looking forward to see you guys soon.
