Friends for Life

Several years ago I closed my business after 3 years of running it. Not just I emptied my bank account, I was also very much in debt. I guess that’s what happens if you run a business in an area of which you are not familiar with. It was basically a dark time for me.…

Introducing Belacan Girl and Cheese Boy!

This blog (nozakamaruddin.com) is almost a year old now! And thanks to you our readers, the blog has been getting some unexpectedly, albeit surprising, high visitor traffic. The blog was originally intended for private posts (luahan hati lah!) but never in my wildest dreams did we intend to get subscribers and followers. It’s time to…

Fear Factor

There are two things that I am extremely fear in my life; first being a tiny little creature that crawls and sticks to you (a.k.a ‘cicak’…eeeeee) and the second is… myself. Obviously we are not going to talk about that tiny creature today (thinking about it is enough to give me goosebumps…blergh!) but I’m going…

Happy Birthday Sis!

I received this Celine’s card holder from my one and only sister (I quote her) for my birthday 10 years ago. At that time, I was just about to get engaged and she was being very emotional…hehehe 😛 I remembered her exact words “You’re getting married soon and things are never going to be the…

Dealing with Difficult People

I believe all of us know somebody who seem to make every situation toxic and impossible, and have experienced dealing with difficult people in our daily lives. These people can be our colleagues, family members, friends or acquaintances. Nevertheless, if you face these types of people on daily basis, it can become very exasperating. (So which…

A little harder…

Holiday season is over. Need to get back to burning the midnight oil routine again! Note to self: The first step of getting somewhere is to decide that you are not going to stay where you are! It’s time to work little harder and dream a little bigger 🙂

A Wiser Me?

When my friends and younger siblings complained about the pain they suffered from their wisdom teeth, I can’t help myself but wondering why I haven’t got mine yet? Is this the reason of my lack of wisdom? 😛 Every time when I went for my dentist appointment, I will eagerly ask my dentist “Is my…

It’s that time of year again!

I have always had a love-hate relationship with the month of December. First of all, I was born in the month of December (I just turned 36 recently *tears*) and we have YES (Year End Sale) in Malaysia. On top of that, the moment it reaches 1st December, I start to receive miscellaneous messages via…

Sagittarius

Stumble upon this while browsing the net. It is not that I really believe in horoscope but there are so many similarities of my traits especially on the negative traits. Sigh… Coincidence? Maybe! Optimistic Energetic and enthusiastic, the Sagittarius see the glass half full. Their optimism helps them carry on even in the most adverse situations.…

Lost then Found

I’ve been down the whole week last week (oh well, almost) simply because I’ve lost Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 that my company got for me. I remember not taking it out from my bag but suddenly it went missing. I’ve searched for it high and low but no success, so I have to eventually report it…
