Passion Vs Complacency

When being asked "Why are you here?", during interview (which I totally nailed) before being recruited by the airlines,I used the common 4-word cliche answer that every stewardess post applicant would use, "Traveling is my passion".Some might even answered "I love meeting people".Honestly,those were total bulls.Those were the answers that the interviewers would love to hear from their candidates,but not something from within the hearts and the minds of the glamourous job seekers.

Nevertheless,one became contented with the perks from the job they enrolled after certain period of time.Like myself.

I would love to be part of the highly evolved industry called fashion,but I settled for a less commitment-demand field,customer services.I've enjoyed entertaining customers and fulfilling their wishes while they travel from point A to point B,but I couldn't get rid of that burning desire deep inside of me to explore the mysterious world of fashion.While others were busy updating themselves with the latest news on Qaddafi or analysis on US Dollar currency rate,I was making my research on the season's fashion trends.While others were in need to know of the latest Hollywood gossips,I browsed through websites and fashion magazines to know what the Hollywood stars were wearing daily and on red carpet events. 

So what if I were to be offered a post which literally consist of fashion and customer service at the same time?Not just at an average labeled fashion boutique,but a HIGH END labeled.Definitely my kinda thing,but should I consider leaving my comfort zone,complacency I've obtained for 7 long years,to step into nirvana in my own little world?

When I put it that way,it sure sounded like I should be considering the new option but honestly,I never have the intention to let go of this current contented life of mine.A change of heart is unpredictable though,so I'll just wait for what is specifically laid out for me in the future by the Almighty Allah S.W.T.

Leaving the confusing thoughts behind,so far I've been having blessed and wonderful days in Syawal.I spent my days off duirng Raya momentarily,but at least I enjoyed every bit of them.Not forgetting to mention that both of my Raya outfits were sponsored by my lovely mother-in-law to-be,Aunty Asiah.Here are some magic moments captured on the 1st day of Raya for your viewing pleasure :

Ibu looked so petite next to me.
The girl band from Bandar Maharani ;D
Singaporean family friend.
Because your kiss,your kiss,is on my list....
With the Ma'am of the house..

Later that afternoon of 1st Raya,Sweetie Pie came all the way from KL to join the joyous celebration of our Raya in Muar.He also brought Little Polly along!Of course it didn't make that much of difference coz all she did was cleaning herself,sleeping at different corners of the house and expecting to be pet by every single person around but at least she was an adorable eye candy =D

It has been a month and 2 weeks since I last saw Sweetie Pie,before he left for China,so of course his presence in Muar was much appreciated.He made our whole family's 2nd day of Raya celebration even more meaningful.

Sweetie Pie and Ayah.
Well,this couple doesn't need introduction =)
Our family is finally complete on Raya after 4 long years without Asha around.

Now that my Raya report is done,I'm gonna go and hit the sack.Oh and another thing!To bloggers who are still in doubt which blog advertising network to choose for your precious blogs,I purely recommend Advertlets coz it seems that I've been constantly receiving Raya money from them.Those who give Raya money to me are always considered to be the best.Haha!

Good night folks,and don't overstuff yourselves with Raya open houses' food =D
