So what does happiness means to you? We perceive happiness in many ways. Each one of us perceive differently. For me, happiness doesn't come in the form of monetary. It's the company that I have around me, the people who stood by me through my ups and downs. 

Sometimes we were too engrossed with our problem that we forgot the little things around us that makes us happy. 

'Aere has started a #happinesstome project on Instagram, a move to reflect and share on the things that make us happy. For this campaign, the aim is to appreciate the basic senses that we have been blessed with. It’s through these senses that we are able to feel, and truly lucky we are, because some people were born without these senses. And some had them taken away' - R Nadia Sabrina

So what is #happiness to you? Share them and follow Aere on Intagram now. Remember to tag #happinesstome and @aere.

I love midweek holiday. It sort of shorten the whole 7 days. Preferably if the public holiday falls either on Friday or Monday. But the jam will be so terrible.

Well, I had 2 Deepavali invites during the one day off. One was from a colleague of mine and another was from the husband's friend. I wanted to wear something vibrant since Deepavali is the festival of light. I took out a peach baju kurung that I only used the blouse to be paired with a jean. But due to the humid weather, I changed my mind and opt for a breathable material. I put on my checkered pastel color shirt and pair it with my skinny's. Slip on my flats and my usual hand bag. 

I'm wearing brass necklace from Fashion Culture box, checkered shirt and skinny's from Brands Outlet, black flats from Payless Shoes.

Shoulder bag will never be out of style. Apart from the simple and versatile, you can just throw in your stuffs into the bag which is very convenient as well as easy to carry around. You can also match these shoulder bag with any style of your own. These are my current favorite.

Planning on backpacking to Singapore but don't know where to stay. Well, if you're talking about Singapore, staying in a cheap or budget hostel will not be a problem. Cleanliness is their main priority apart from comfort. Here's a list of interesting yet affordable dormitory or backpacker hostels:

*this video contain emotional elements*

Farizal atau Rizal datang dari keluarga yang serba kekurangan. Kedua orang tuanya telah pergi mengadap Ilahi pada Ogos yang lepas. Mereka meninggalkan dia bersama adiknya. Rizal kini tidak lagi bersekolah semenjak pemergian kedua ibu dan bapanya kerana tidak mampu memebayar yuran sekolah. Rizal dan adiknya kini menetap di Sanggar Yayasan Anak Jalanan Burungan (if I could hear him mentioned properly). Mungkin kita tidak mengenali siapa Farizal ini. Mungkin kita fikir Farizal hanyalah seorang peserta seperti mereka yang lain. Namun, semangat waja yang di bawa oleh tubuh kecil ini mampu memberi kesan yang sangat mendalam. I have never seen such an inspirational video before.

Selama saya mengikuti video di You Tube, saya rasakan inilah video yang sangat memberi inspirasi pada kita semua. Inspiration to be strong regardless of what come in between. God gives us test to make us a stronger person. 

Juri menanyakan Rizal, apakah motivasi utama yang membuatkan beliau menurut serta di dalam Indonesia Idol Jr ini. Rizal menjawab, jika diberikan rezeki dalam rancangan ini, duit yang dimenanginya akan digunakan bagi memperbaiki kubur kedua orang tuanya di kampung. Betapa sucinya niat seorang kanak-kanak kecil ini. Apa niat kita kalau kita menang duit sebanyak ini? 

Juri juga sempat menanyakan Rizal apakah karacter kedua orang tua Rizal. Dia menjawab, baik orangnya. Juri juga menanyakan Rizal, apakah yang telah diajari orang kdua ibu dan bapanya sehingga dia mampu menjadi sebegini kuat pada usia yang muda? Jawabnya:

Tidak berbuat jahat pada orang

Sentiasa berbakti pada orang tua

Menjaga adik dengan baik

Tahu membezakan mana baik dan buruk

Melindungi adiknya dari sebarang bahaya

Sentiasa berani

Allah membalas apa yang baik dan apa yang jahat

Jangan melawan orang

Tonton vidoe ini dan nilai diri anda, apakah bakti yang telah dicurahkan oleh anda terhadap kedua orang tua anda termasuk diri saya sendiri.
