Urbanscapes 2008

Let me start off with my visit to the Wella saloon. What I had in mind was changing my hair colour from the hideous villain streaks (think Cruella), to something more chic like ash brown with golden highlights. So I pun semangat brought along my Bazaar mag which has Petra Nemcova in it, with her gorgeous ash brown hair. I pointed at the picture and said "I want this colour I dont care I said I want", and he replied "Cannot". After 2minutes of their Cantonese conversation, they decided to please my young heart and told me they can do it, but it wont turn out exactly the same colour. They told me they will lighten my already brown hair. Hearing that, I said LETS DO IT.

So I slept. Most of the time.
And when I woke up, BAH! BAH! BAH!
I only went bah! bah! bah! in my heart though, because they were trying too hard to explain everything and I couldnt take it anymore so I just kept quiet. You want to know what they did to my hair?





They turned it into the same colour as my couch.




Moving on.
Saturday, 28th of June 2008.

It didnt occur to me that I would go and have fun there at Urbanscapes when I was reading the flyer weeks ago. But when Joyce called me up to help her pick lucky draws at Tongue in Chic booth, I couldnt say no since she's like a precious fairy to me. And wow Im glad I didnt (say no).

Urbanscapes, this is one yearly event that you should never miss. It was indeed a shopping paradise and one hell of a music festival. Shopping and music, you have got to love one if not both right? And to enjoy what you love doing in such a beautiful place, it was held in KL Pac, this old abandoned railway station which was refurbished into a gorgeous performing arts center in the middle of this huge beautiful garden, it couldnt be better. If you have no idea where this place is, (like me, I called up Joyce like 6-7 times on my way there), it is actually located in Sentul West, yes Sentul has East part and West part. Wha? Exactly.


HANISZALIKHA LOVES GREENERY.
AND HANISZALIKHA LOVES CHEAP DRESSES.


Anyway, I went there with my mommy, my sister, and my aunt (hello my name is Family bt. Oriented), and it was already 5pm but I can see a lot of people still coming in, since the event started at 12pm and went on until 12am. 12 hours of serious good fun! If you missed out on this year's Urbanscapes and planning to go to one next year, I suggest you bring good company, like what I did, and make sure youre free for the whole 12hours. Dont make any other plans because you really would want to spend your day and night there. What the hell Ubranscapes spokesperson ke apa ini. Haha and dont forget to dress nicely as everybody there are like so stylish and hip, and YOU WILL BUMP INTO SOMEONE YOU KNOW or in my case, people who knows me and wanting to take picture with me to make my day. Kehkehkeh. I love this feeling.



Aunty Nana and I.





Aunty Nana, supermom, and Liana my sister. I purposely put up this picture to show my photography skill of making a picture look crowded.





Kakak Liana got excited seeing this humble board.





And got supermom to join in the fun.





Are we soulmates or are we soulmates? Haha kuat berkepit.



For my help (of what again? picking up lucky draws?), Joyce handed to me two passes into the music festival and RM100 Tres Chic shopping voucher.






I told you shes a fairy.







Today's guest appearance by:

Phillip the cyber cat.

Cyber cat

Hello world.
Ahhh and yes you, the sun. Lol.
(Semangat indicating how ready I am to face the world.)






Let me tell you a story about the two things I woke up to this morning.



Thing 1:

I woke up to a typing sound. And to my bloody surprise I saw my cat in front of my laptop, typing away. By typing away, I really mean typing away.




This is not funny Phillip.






Lol can play Scrabble already.






Blogging Playing Scrabble can be tiring .


So yes, now you know how our beloved pets will always follow what we do. Thats why they say smoking is bad for pets. Haha okay takde kene mengena. But Ive heard a lot about dogs turning to look like their owners though. Or is it the owner that will eventually look like their dog some day? No wonder I see a lot of bitch faces nowadays.



Thing 2:

This, in my mailbox.


I was wondering am I turning 18 today? Eh belum.
Then why lah?

OHHHH.. MY BESTFRIEND IS SIMPLY APPRECIATING A FABULOUS FRIEND LIKE ME. And with that, came an invite to Beauty and The Beast The Musical. Wah dalam alaf baru ini di mana Malaysia sedang giat menuju ke arah Wawasan 2020, masih wujud sahabat sebegini? Im blessed.






Okay I lied about Malaysia going towards Vision 2020.

Hairstyle that makes you look younger

Im here to announce that Ive gained 2kg. *Woh stand up ovation*. And my cheeks are chubbier than ever. Haha kesian. So right now I look really young like really really young. And plus





I GOT A FREAKING NEW HAIRSTYLE.

IM A KID AGAIN!

Dammit.


Who would have thought, my hairstylist would do this to my hair. No seriously. Fringes like that only suits people with big forehead like Tyra Banks ke.. Rihanna ke.. Sengaja tau my hairstylist nak samakan I dengan mereka. Haha. But instead, I look like the chubby version of sepet Hannah Montana. Sigh never mind. It'll grow back (right.. lagi dua tiga tahun). At first when they highlighted my hair, I thought woof woof sexy lady then when they cut my fringe short, I was like byebye sex appeal. Haha.





Woof woof? No?
Shut up you.

Us on our way to work. Ceh pergi kerja sama-sama.
Me still with rollers on wearing my shades (edited: natural curls enhanced by rollers, as stylist preferred). Im not ready to face the world yet. That explains the very blur first pic.



I will change my hair colour this Friday. Any suggestions? NOBODY TELLS ME TO STAY FOOLISH WITH THE CENTER HIGHLIGHTED FRINGE.

Thank you.

OhSoRandom: Bladi fringe, my forehead sweats alot now (-_-")

Giggle and pose

Hello people.
Another fashion spread coming your way!

This time I get to be a giggly teenage person, unlike always. Plus, the wardrobe is so Hanis Zalikha! Cool. Haha. I wore brands like Forever 21, Roxy, Polo and few more which I didnt notice. I got a guy make up artist and he's like so artsy and talented. But too bad that my face will still look old whenever I have tonnes of make up on. Kasihan my pores.

And this is the first time ever I brought Alisya along so she gets to see the whole process. Actually I was in the car already when Alisya ran out crying, wanting to follow TAK SEDAR DIRI BELUM MANDI. Being a good sister that I am, I said hop in!


Haha okay I actually skipped the part where I told my mom "MA CEPAT JALAN MA!" ("MOTHER FASTER WALK DRIVE MOTHER!") Lol. Wtf the translation.

During make up


BAHAH sorry if I scare you :B




Perempuan tua glamour dan si belum mandi.




Edited kao kao.





Yo yo yo.




Holright thats all I have for you guys. I'll tell you when the mag comes out.




And this is me trying to act cool getting out of the car, not knowing that I still have my ponytails on. Lol damn perasan.


Pewit pewit.




OhSoRandom:
ThankyouRobbfortheinvite!

What keeps me grounded

Happy birthday to you,
happy birthday to you,
happy birthday to Newman,
happy birthday to you.

Let me be the first one to wish Newman a happy happy 5th birthday from a blog :)
Thank you Newman for inviting me to your birthday party. But wheres the cake weh? Ive peeped into the VIP section (after my failed attempt to sneak in there), but I see no cake also. Lol. Anyway we really had super duper fun there at Savanh Too eventhough I dont drink, but I got really hyper just dancing with the girls. As you can see up there, I was doing my catwalk with my eyes closed (really pro until like that). But omg I love the dress, its from Bebe (promote promote).

Her name is Hanis Zalikha and she's with Hazel Khoo, the manager of Savanh Too.
They were camwhoring in Hazel's toilet.




Did you miss Natasha from MDG? I know I did.
This is us before we changed into sponsored clothes.




Hanis Zalikha with her ever so gorgeous girlfriend Fiqa.
Envy this red headed beauty.




After our catwalk show, we went to party and mingle around and guess who I met?


Awww I miss her so much since MDG ended.



.Me and the gorgeous Fiqa again.
After we were made up by Make Up Your Mind.




These are my darlings.






And *drum roll* this is what keeps me grounded:







THE SUPPORT FROM MY MOM.

Woot!
I love her for being there for me.
I love her for having my back.
I love her for getting me where I am right now.
I love her for keeping me grounded.
And I love her for coming to the event with a camera.
Wahah!
And and for the shocking pink dress she bought for me.





And because it was a cakeless party, during the event, we went next door..




to Secret Recipe!
Haha. Lapar gila woh.

How to go green without spending green

Ive been busy with a lot of things lately but here I am, still wanting to let you in on whats happening with my life. Its annoying how the people from Celebrity Fitness kept calling me to arrange fitness sessions since I got a free membership for 3months. But I'd rather spend my free time gardening with my mom in her garden. I mean seriously, cutting the grass with the big garden scissors not only toned my shoulders (a little bit), it also helps to keep my mom's garden neat and tidy. Check out where I spent my time sweating and bonding. Woohoo! We are so proud of our garden because we started from a scratch. It used to be a lifeless piece of land filled with rocks and bits of cement but then my mom and dad started buying pieces of carpet grass and and they taught us how to plant grass piece by piece. Then came the idea of having a pathway to enhance the greenery and thats when my mom started mixing sand and cement and letting us kids shaped it up. We even drew flowers and snails on it. We really saved a lot of money by doing everything by ourselves, not only that, we are fully satisfied with what we have created and achieved. I heard my neighbour spent over 20k for just a simple garden and yet he's still not completely satisfied. Ala kesian. Wahah!

Apart from that, we can also get fruits and herbs from our garden such as curry leaves, ulam raja leaves, Ambra, turmeric, galangal, mint, chilies, longan, jambu air, and lemon grass and got loads more but too lazy to remember back the names. Hohoh. Having a nice garden surrounding the house, our living room which has large windows and glass doors get to have natural light and fresh air to overwhelm the entire space. I get to SIT COZILY in my living room which overlook our garden as I blog this. Please envy me. Kehkehkeh. And oh I believe that not just human but pets love beautiful gardens. Aha! Why you too should have a nice garden of of your own? What more could you ask for when youre greeted by lush greenery after a long and exhausting day at work? Everyone needs their own private retreat, so start a garden now no matter how small your land is. Hanis Zalikha went green and is still going green. Lets GO GREEN people and save our planet.

OhSoRandom: Okay by now you people would know already that I did my banner with Paint (again).
