Origami Hati

Aqram : Aku rasa baik kau berterus-terang dekat dia je Syah.

Kasyah : Aku rasa lebih baik macam ni Aqram.

Aqram : Kau tau tak apa akan jadi nanti kalau dia tahu sendiri nanti? Ataupun… dia tahu lepas….

Kata-kata Aqram terhenti. Kasyah senyum. Manis.

Kasyah : Aku tahu apa yang kau cuba cakap.

Aqram : Kau tahu kan dia betul-betul sayangkan kau?

Kasyah angguk. Senyum tawar.

Kasyah : Sayang buat ape tu?

Kate : Tengah sketch gambar buah hati saya.

Kate senyum riang mendengar suara Kasyah di hujung talian telefon. Kasyah senyum tawar.

Kasyah : Siapa buah hati awak tu?

Kate : Adalah sorang mamat tu. Die suka panggil I sayang. Setiap pagi, asal bangun tido aje, die mesti call I. Sebelum tidur aje die mesti call I. Lepas tu, die suka usik I.

Kasyah : Jahat kan mamat tu. Suka ganggu tidur you awal-awal pagi, kalau you tido pun mesti nightmare sebab dengar suara die sebelum tidur. Pastu suka usik you lagi.

Kate : Itulah. Tapi I dah biasa dah. Sekarang ni, I dah tak boleh kalau sehari tak dengar suara dia. I tak boleh kalau sehari dia tak usik I. Nanti kalau I sunyi tanpa semua tu, I akan salahkan you!

Kate tertawa kecil. Kasyah senyum. Matanya mula berkaca.

Kasyah : Eh! Kenapa pulak you nak salahkan I?

Kate : Sebab you lah mamat yang jahat tu.

Kate gelak kecil lagi. Hati Kasyah terasa bagai disiat-siat.

Kasyah : Maafkan I, sayang

Kate mengerut dahi.

Kasyah : Sayang free tak petang ni?

Kate : Kalau untuk you, I free je anytime.

Kate sengih.

Kasyah : Buatkan pulut hitam favourite I? Then bungkuskan, kita makan sama-sama nanti.

Kate : Mengidam ye?

Kasyah : Ye, mengidam nak makan pulut hitam awak yang hangit!

Usik Kasyah. Pernah satu ketika Kate memasak pulut hitam untuk Kasyah. Akibat leka melukis, Kate terlupa untuk mematikan api dapur dan pulut hitam yang dimasaknya hangit.

Kate : Kasyah!!!

Jerit Kate. Kasyah tertawa besar.

~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~

Sayang, I tulis nota lepas I call you tadi. Kepala I tiba-tiba sakit dan I muntah darah banyak sangat sayang.
I taknak call you, sebab I taknak you dengar suara I sakit dan I tak sanggup dengar suara you menangis sayang.
I sempat call Aqram tadi. Aqram tahu segala-galanya. I dah lama disahkan menghidap kanser otak.
I tak ada kekuatan untuk cakap pada you sayang.
I tahu you akan salahkan I sebab nanti you akan sunyi tanpa suara I setiap pagi dan malam.
Tanpa usikan I… I sayangkan you Kate.
I betul-betul sa -


Kate tergamam. Nota Kasyah tak sempat habis ditulis. Dan terdapat kesan-kesan darah di nota tersebut. Aqram memerhati Kate dari jauh. Berat hatinya untuk menghubungi Kate sewaktu dalam perjalanan membawa Kasyah ke hospital. Direnungnya satu bungkusan makanan dan potret Kasyah yang berada di sisi Kate.

Aqram diam terduduk lama sebelum membaca surah Al-Fatihah buat arwah Kasyah.

Tiada duka yang abadi di dunia
Tiada sepi merantaimu selamanya
Malam kan berakhir, hari kan berganti
Takdir hidup kan di jalani

Tangis dan tawa nyanyian yang mengiring
Hati yang rindukan cinta di jalan-Mu
Namun ku percaya hati meyakini
Semua akan indah pada akhirnya

Andai bisa ku mengulang
Waktu hilang dan terbuang
Andai bisa perbaiki s'gala yang terjadi
Tapi waktu tak berhenti
Tapi detik tak kembali
Harap ampunkan hamba-Mu ini

Waktu berputar rembulan dan matahari
Bunga yang mekar akan layu akan mati
Malam kan berakhir, hari kan berganti
Takdir hidup kan di jalani

Andai bisa ku mengulang
Waktu hilang dan terbuang
Andai bisa perbaiki s'gala yang terjadi
Tapi waktu tak berhenti
Tapi detik tak kembali
Harap ampunkan hamba-Mu ini

Andai bisa ku mengulang
Waktu hilang dan terbuang
Andai bisa perbaiki segala yang terjadi
Tapi waktu tak berhenti
Tapi detik tak kembali
Harap ampunkan hamba-Mu ini
Harap ampunkan hamba-Mu ini

It's been the longest winter without you
I didn't know where to turn to
See somehow I can't forget you
After all that we've been through

Going coming thought I heard a knock
Who's there no one
Thinking that I deserve it
Now I realize that I really didn't know
If you didn't notice you mean everything
Quickly I'm learning to love again
All I know is I'mma be ok

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
Even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time

I couldn't turn on the TV
Without something there to remind me
Was it all that easy
To just put aside your feelings

If I'm dreaming don't wanna laugh
Hurt my feelings but that's the path
I'll believe in
And I know time will heal it
If you didn't notice boy you mean everything
Quickly I'm learning to love again
All I know is I'mma be ok

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
Even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to
It'll all get better in time

Since there's no more you and me
It's time I let you go
So I can be free
And live my life how it should be
No matter how hard it is I'll be fine without you
Yes I will

Thought I couldn't live without you
It's gonna hurt when it heals too
It'll all get better in time
Even though I really love you
I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to (yes I do)
It'll all get better in time


“The worst lies are the lies we tell ourselves. We live in denial of what we do, even what we think. We do this because we're afraid. We fear we will not find love, and when we find it we fear we'll lose it. We fear that if we do not have love we will be unhappy.”

Hell Girl vs Juliana Violet

Have you ever heard about 'Hell Girl" series? I just knew it last few days from my colleague while having cake & tea @ Secret Recipe last week. I'm quite close with her because of the way she thinks and the way she sees things and the best part of her, she's funny. * okay, it might because she's mid40s, so dah banyak makan garam. ;) *
Most of the time, our hot & fav topic - fashion, food, work, future planning, our own interests and 'HOT' guy * okay, tipu - she's married and got 2 kids... ;p' *
But the other day, we talked about anime series.

She : I don't know how you can be my friend. *smile*

Vee : Huh? Why?

She : Mental.

Vee : Well, it might because all of my friends like that, especially you. *laughing out loud*

She : Ya lah. And you ni macam kartun anime kadang-kadang.

Vee : Meaning?

She : Your personality sometimes. *pause*. Anyway, talking about anime, before this - I love to watched this one anime series, Hell Girl. Have you ever heard about that?

Vee : Na'ah. Hellboy I tau lah. *smile*

And then she started to share the storyline of "Hell Girl" series. I do asked her why they called the main character "Hell Girl" but she can't even remember why. So I do some research about the series.

"Hell Girl", anime Jigoku Shoujo which was first shown in Japan in 2005 with a second seasion realeased in late 2006.
The series revolves around a young girl called Enma Ai who makes offers to make contracts with people who seek revenge by accessing her website at midnight. The target of the revenge is taken immediately to hell but in exchage the person initaiting the contract will be sent to hell when they die.

Enma Ai is the Jigoku Shouji (Girl from hell) and is the main character of the series. She tend to wear a black and red trimmed school uniform except when she is ‘working’ when she wears a black kimono with colored flowers (looks a little different in the second series).
She receives request for vengeance through a website which can only be accessed at exactly midnight and only by those who truly was revenge. After getting a request she gives the person a doll with a red string indicating that by pulling the string a contract is agreed to take the target of revenge to hell in exchange for that person going to hell when they die. Enma is assisted by three people Ichimoku Ren, Hone Onna and Wanyuudou.
Each of these assistants can turn into the dolls she gives to the persons requesting revenge. During the first series it is always Wanyuudou that turns into the doll but in the second series it varies between the three of them. She has some strange link to the girl called Tsugumi resulting in what she is seeing being transmitted to her sometimes. Enma has a tragic history that turned her into the hell girl revealed in the later episodes of the series.
Enma appears to have some very strong powers creating complex illusions, teleporting people and in some rare cases fire large bolts of dark energy. Her most powerful ability is to send people to hell, however she only ever uses this when she has a confirmed request from someone."





Dari penceritaan kawan Vee,

"Hell Girl akan bertanya kepada sesiapa (orang yang berdendam) yang membenci sesiapa (orang yang dibenci) untuk membalas dendam. Jika orang (orang yang berdendam) yang meminta Hell Girl membalas dendam itu menghapuskan orang yang dibencinya, Hell Girl akan melakukan sesuatu yang bakal membuatkan orang yang dibenci itu mati dengan apa cara sekalipun. Tapi, satu perkara yang pasti, orang yang berdendam itu akan terus ke neraka selepas mati."
Interesting right? ;)

Tepuk dada tanya selera, bagi Vee series ni punya mesej yang tersendiri. :)

"If someone is seeking your revenge she could be looking at you right now. Have you done something bad?"

"I’m pretty, but I’m not beautiful. I sin but I’m not the devil. I’m good but I’m not an angel."

P/S : I hate you. :)

100 days rings in February...

19:30 pm – “KLCC”
“Kite jumpa balik dalam masa sejam ye sayang”, ujar Kasyah pada Kate lantas berlalu pergi. Kate tersenyum sambil hati kecilnya berbisik, “I love you sayang”. Sesungguhnya lelaki yang baru dikenalinya sejak 3 bulan lepas itu benar-benar disayanginya.
‘Hmmm…. Mane aku nak pergi ni? Kinokuniya.... Shopping... Hmmm... Ya... I should get him something.‘ Laju langkah Kate berlalu setelah memikirkan sesuatu yang ingin di lakukannya pada kekasih hatinya.

19:55 pm - “CRYSTAL CORNER”
“You confirm ke size ni amoi? I tak sure sangat tapi jari manis die sama besar dgn jari kelingking i” ujar Kasyah pada jurujual di dalam kedai kristal tersebut.
“Memang ini size la. Kalau size tak sama you boleh datang tukar tapi dalam masa 3 hari. You datang sini then I tukar size kasi you.”
“Okaylah. I ambil ini.” Laju jari jemari jurujual tersebut membuang tanda harga pada cincin tersebut dan meletakkannya di dalam kotak berwarna purple.
Kasyah senyum lega. Sudah puas difikirkan apa yang dia mahu hadiahkan pada Kate sempena hari ke-100 mereka bersama hari ini. Kebetulan hari ke-100 mereka bersama jatuh pada 14 Febuari. Dan dia bercadang mahu ‘melamar’ Kate untuk menjadi kekasihnya dengan cincin Amethyst tersebut.
Kasyah melirik pada jam kesayangannya. ‘Alamak! Almost one hour!’ Laju kakinya melangkah ke Memory Lane.

20:15 pm - “PASAR SENI”
"Hmmm... I tak sure sangat jari dia besar mana. Tapi I rasa size ini kot." lama Kate cuba mengagak saiz jari Kasyah. Jurujual berbangsa cina di hadapannya senyum manis.
"I tak pandai lah nak pilih design mana yang suitable untuk lelaki. Selalunya customer lelaki you pilih patern yang macam mana?" soal Kate setelah dia mula rasa rambang mata.
"Hmmm... I rasa yang ini mungkin sesuai. Ramai yang pilih design ini. Tapi ini ada satu size saja." ujar jurujual di hadapan Kate sambil menghulurkan sebentuk cincin kepada Kate. Kate senyum sambil membelek-belek cincin tersebut.
"I rasa size ni okay. I ambil yang inilah."

Senyum.

5 minit kemudian, Kate menuju ke arah kedai yang menyediakan perkhidmatan mengukir nama pada barangan silver. Tak lama kemudian, ukiran '100 days' terukir pada bahagian dalam cincin tersebut.

20:40 pm – “WATSON”
‘Sayang dekat mane?’ jari Kate laju menaip text message pada Kasyah.

1 new text message
“Kasyah”


‘Kejap. Nanti dah habis saya sms awak aite’

Kate menyimpan telefon bimbitnya ke dalam poket sambil berjalan-jalan di dalam Watson. Baru dia teringat dia terhilangkan lipbalmnya. Tangannya mencapai lipbalm perasa strawberry kesukaannya dan, ‘Kasyah pun hilang lipbalm jugak’ lantas matanya meliar mencari lipbalm kesukaan Kasyah.

20:40 pm –“LYSHA FLORA”
“Bunga ni adik hantar ke menara Maxis, level 9 ok? Lebih kurang dalam pukul 9:45 pagi sampai 10:15 pagi ye” ujar Kasyah pada gadis manis bertudung di hadapannya.
Sengaja di belikan 12 kuntum ros putih pada Kate kerana yakin gadis itu pasti menyukainya.

“Kate”
Calling


~ “Holler”
~”Awak tunggu kat Watson, dalam 5 minit lagi saya sampai”
~”Ok. Daaaa…”


14:28 pm – “RUANG TAMU RUMAH”
Jari jemari Kate laju menyentuh keypad laptop kesayangannya menaip “100 days rings in February”



Little girl kisses her mom
Tells her I love you holds on to her neck
Little girl doesn't have much
She walks with a smile, she's so full of life

But she cries in the night
Just to try to hold on
No one can hear her
She's all alone

This little girl closes her eyes
All that she wants
Is someone to love
Someone to love

Little girl, she's all grown up
Oh, she's getting famous, she's a big star
Little girl, fights with her mom
Can't believe money changed who she loves

And she cries in the night
Just to try to hold on
No one can hear her
She's all alone

This little girl closes her eyes
All that she wants
Is someone to love, oh, yeah
Someone to love, oh, yeah

She cries in the night
Just to try to hold on
No one can hear her
She's all alone

This little girl closes her eyes
All that she wants
Is someone to love
Someone to love her, to love, to love

Mari deden sata! :D

Pagi ni happy sikit lepas dapat sms dari mak. Last week mak Vee ke Pahang (kampung halaman Vee).
Dan sebelum balik ke Penang (Vee membesar di Penang), mak sms Vee - cakap mak ada tinggalkan sata dan otak-otak dekat rumah kakak. Weeee!!! Favourite Vee tu sata dengan otak-otak. Tapi Vee lebih suka sata. Dah lama kempunan nak deden. Last Vee deden sata, ramadhan last year, itupun dekat satu tempat aje yang Vee jumpa sata - dekat bazar Ramadhan Cheras.

Tahu tak apa sata? :)
Sata, kalau tak silap Vee berasal dari Terengganu. Tapi Vee mula deden sata pun dari kampung halaman Vee, Pahang. Sata nyam nyam tau! (^^,) Sapa setuju angkat kening! :D
Dan siapa yang tak pernah deden sata julingkan mata anda (apa yang kau merepek ni JV?)

Okay, secara ringkasnya, sata ni adalah makanan yang tergolong dalam golongan makanan seperti otak-otak dan keropok lekor. Sebabnya, sata ni banyak terdapat di negeri pantai timur termasuk Pahang.

Sata adalah makanan isi ikan yang dipanggang yang dicampur dengan bawang, halia dan cili merah dipotong. Sedap tau! ;)

Sata selalunya berbentuk kon dan dicucuk pada batang lidi. Last Ramadhan, Vee beli sata dengan harga RM 2 satu cucuk. Hopefully Ramadhan tahun ni Vee dapat berbuka dengan sata lagi. ( Ramadhan tahun ni awal! End of July. Weeee!!! =D )

Tak sabar rasanya nak mamam sata tu. Nasib Vee agak baik sebab kebetulan Vee balik kerja awal hari ni, so dapatlah singgah ke rumah kakak untuk deden sata tu nanti.
Eh, lupa pulak nak share macam mana 'ghupe'nye sata tu. Haaa, bagi yang tak pernah deden atau tak pernah tahu apa itu sata, inilah sata yang telah membuatkan Vee menelan air liur beratus-ratus kali lepas dapat sms dari mak tadi. (^^,)

The fate of destruction is also the joy of rebirith.

Hello guys. Hope you guys in the pink of health. =)
It's Wednesday huh? Tengok movie jom! ;)

Anyway, nothing much to mumbling today. It just while 'surfing' with my 'Sifoo Google' earlier, found a few quotes from "The End of Evangelion" - Japanese animated film.

Okay, saya jujur di sini - I've no idea if it was a good movie or not since I never watch it before. I knew about it after found these nice quotes just now (well, it;'s more to conversations) and I wanna share it with you guys. But, before that – these are some infos about the film.

“The End of Evangelion” is a 1997 Japanese animated film written and directed by Hideaki Anno along with Kazuya Tsurumaki; it ended the anime releases in the Neon Genesis Evangelion franchise until the Rebuild of Evangelion tetralogy remakes were announced in 2006.

The film is divided into two approximately 45-minute episodes, each given a secondary or English title by Gainax, just as with the original series episodes: Episode 25': Air (secondary title: "Love is Destructive") and Episode 26': My Purest Heart for You, secondary/English title: "ONE MORE FINAL: I need you."). They can be regarded as either an alternate ending to the popular animated series Neon Genesis Evangelion or a more detailed, "real world" account of the series' original ending in episodes 25 and 26, which takes place almost completely in the minds of the main characters (the style being largely shaped by time and budget restraints). Gainax originally proposed to title it Evangelion: Rebirth 2.
***Source from here***

For some reason I want to share these quotes with all of you guys. :)

Misato Katsuragi : You hate yourself, don't you? That's why you hurt others. Deep down you know you suffer more when you cause someone else pain... than if you just let yourself get hurt. But Shinji, that was your decision, so it makes it a valid choice. That's what you wanted. So, that makes it worthwhile. Stop lying to yourself and realize that you do have options. Then... accept the choices you've made.

Shinji Ikari : But you're not me! You don't know what I have to go through! You don't understand!

Misato Katsuragi : [enraged] So f***ing what if I'm not you! That doesn't mean it's okay for you to give up! If you do, I'll never forgive you as long as I live!


~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~

Misato Katsuragi : God knows I'm not perfect, either. I've made tons of stupid mistakes, and later I regretted them. And I've done it over and over again, thousands of times; a cycle of hollow joy and vicious self-hatred. But even so, every time I learned something about myself.

Shinji Ikari : No-one understands me.

Rei Ayanami : You never understood anything.

Shinji Ikari : I thought this was supposed to be a world without pain and without uncertainty.

Rei Ayanami : That's because you thought that everyone else felt the same as you do.

Shinji Ikari : You betrayed me! You betrayed my feelings!

Rei Ayanami : You misunderstood from the very beginning. You just believed what you wanted to believe.

Shinji Ikari : Nobody wants me, so they can all just die.

Rei Ayanami : Then what is your hand for?

Shinji Ikari : Nobody cares whether I live or die. Nothing will change... so they can all just die...

Rei Ayanami : Then what is your heart for?

Shinji Ikari : It would be better if I never existed. I should just die too.

Rei Ayanami : Then why are you here?

Misato Katsuragi : Giving up halfway is worse than never trying at all. Come on! Get up! MOVE IT!

Shinji Ikari : I want to die. Just leave me here.

Misato Katsuragi : Stop talking like a stubborn little brat! Like it or not, you're still alive. Get moving and DO something! You can die later!

Asuka Langly Soryu : You don't understand anything. You just stay away from me.

Shinji Ikari : I do understand.

Asuka Langly Soryu : You couldn't possibly - you jerk! You really think you can ever know me? You think you can even help me? Don't make me laugh! You're such a moron! You will never understand!

Shinji Ikari : How can I ever understand you if you won't say anything? You never talk to me, but you expect me to understand you! That's impossible!

P/S : "Some Will Seek Forgiveness, Others Escape"

With Love,

Hang in there, will you?



When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn. 

Fall seven times, stand up eight.
When you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on. 
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us. 



When it is dark enough, you can see the stars.



Count the garden by the flowers, never by the leaves that fall.  Count your life with smiles and not the tears that roll.

Violet Swan?

Violet Swan? ;)

It has been a while I didn't update this blog.
Life kinda busy right now, with my newborn nephew, Arif Danial Hakim… (get well soon sayang… his jaundice level was quite high), work - im still struggling to get used with some of the drastic changes on my daily work, I need to move out from my current house in about 2 months, and yeah … bla bla bla… some other 'lousy stuff' which gave me a 'crippling' headache… (=_=)"

And insomnia had troubling my life once again. Sigh... (=_=)"
My weight has increased and now I had the pimple all over my face... and guess what, I fell sooooo 'comel' with all of the 'lemak berkrim disukai ramai' on my body and with all of the 'devil' pimple... >:D

Na'aahh... I'm totally unhappy with that man... ='(

Some of you, (Fbians) must be wondering what happened to my FB wall, etc… Apologies for those who may not like it, it just I'm not really in a mood to update my status plus I'm kinda busy these day and need to slooooowly settle down a few things within these few months (could be more than half year!), so - I really need a space, a break from everything for a while. You guys will always support me right, my dearest friends? Right?
I wish… :)

"99 Hari Kisah Klasik Kita" still there… Don't worry… ;)

Okay, enough mumbling. For those fashionistas out there, I would love to share some infos with you. ;)

While resting at home yesterday, I randomly blogwalking to a few of Malaysian's fashion designer's blog and the new black dress from Faizal Hamid really captured my eyes. The reason is, he came with a new collection which is very stunning new collection for Spring/Summer 2011. Little Black Swan. Little Black Swan references the art house film, particularly Natalie Portman in ‘Black Swan’. Her character embodied the traditional undeniable beauty, grace and irresistible yet gradually haunting. As cocktail and evening dresses paraded down, the 10 looks run the gamut of what any fashion-forward woman would clamor to wear. Like the mix of taffeta, chiffon and tulle with elements of demi-couture, intriguing and soigné with the black silk organza mini dress with effortlessly draping for the bodice and exquisite dress gown with a refine construction.

Last few weeks, I do watch the "Black Swan Trailer" which is posted by Nina Gracia on her wall on FB. Owh~ I just loooooveeee the "Black Swan" poster. Natalie Portman is always pretty and gorgeous no matter how. Remember when she had a very short boyish haircut? She still look pretty, sweet and cute. ;)


... back to Little Black Swan from Faizal Hamid, below are some of his collection, 'kidnaped' from Faizal Hamid's blog.





"Koleksi Faizal Hamid, Musim Panas/ Bunga 2011, dihasilkan eksklusif untuk pasaran di New York , Amerika Syarikat. Dengan tema Black Swan, di inspirasikan daripada salah sebuah filem seni (art film) juga dari judul yang sama, lakonan Natalie Portman yang kini cukup mendapat sambutan dikalangan peminat dan pengkritik filem antarabangsa. Watak beliau dalam filem ini cukup mengesankan, penuh mainan emosi serta keanggunan yang amat memukau. Ia cukup memberikan saya inspirasi segar untuk berkarya hingga terhasilnya koleksi ini, yang merupakan perspektif saya sendiri terhadap dunia fesyen itu sendiri.

Sejujurnya saya hasilkan koleksi ini, atas permintaan rakan-rakan saya yang menetap di New York . Koleksi ini paling dekat dihati saya kerana ia merupakan luahan rasa saya sebagai seorang pencinta fesyen.

Menampilkan rekaan gaun koktel dan malam daripada fabrik sutera sifon, shantung, organza, tafeta dan tulle. Koleksi ini menggabungkan kombinasi elemen garisan, tekstur, draping, ilusi dan demi couture. Koleksi Black Swan ini adalah merupakan interpretasi segar rekaan kontemporari yang anggun, sofistikated, polished & refine."

Demi-couture? Okay, I've never heard of it before. (nampak sangat jauh ketinggalan dalam dunia fesyen)
I've heard a lot about couture before. And I must say that most of our local and international celebrities chose to walk on the red carpet with stunning and glamorous couture dress. What is COUTURE, and what is DEMI-COUTURE?
Let's talk about couture first. :)


COUTURE

***Source from Rizalman Ibrahim's blog***
"Fashion was born there (Europe). Gaya mereka, pereka2 fesyen mereka..semuanya handal2 belaka. kenapa ya?. Pastinya kerana fesyen adalah ruji masyarakat di sana. Fesyen dianggap sungguh sacred, hingga ianya adalah suatu tradisi yang tidak boleh dibuat bahan mainan maupun gurauan. Maka dengan sebab itu, lahirlah dunia 'haute Couture'. Saya pasti ramai yang pernah mendengar perkataan Couture? Ya, kini di malaysia pun perkataan itu memang sudah terang2 digunakan di sana sini. Tapi adakah anda tahu maksudnya??

Couture yang membawa maksud jahitan, adalah satu tradisi pembuatan pakaian mewah yang memang sudah begitu sinonim dengan negara perancis, khususnya Paris. Pembuatannya amat berkualiti dari segi jahitan yang kemas, fabrik yang bermutu, potongan yang flawless serta sudah semestinya rekaan yang dramatik. Walaupun saya ketika belajar tidak didedahkan sangat dengan teknik sebegini, namun dengan inisiatif sendiri, kerap berulang alik ke Paris bagi mendapatkan ilmu teknik pembuatan hanya dengan melalui window dressing beberapa couture house disana. kagum! terpesona serta hormat yang tidak terhingga kepada para couturiernya. Kerajaan Perancis juga mewujudkan satu badan untuk memantau para pereka fesyennya yang bernaung dibawah sebarang label couture bagi menjamin kualiti serta tradisi negaranya. Hebat kan?

Malah dari peringkat institusi fesyen lagi para pelajar sudah didedahkan dengan perkara ini, yang fesyen bukannya suatu bidang gurauan tetapi adalah satu profesyen yang dipandang mulia (jika anda berjaya). Para pengkritik fesyen juga lantang bersuara demi atas alasan bagi menjaga budaya dari pudar menjadi rekaan yang murahan. Setiap pereka disana akan menggigil ketakutan menunggu respon serta berita di dlam suratkhabar smada rekaan mereka dipuji atau dikeji..sehingga Valentino yang sudah bergelar couturier hingga berdekad lamanya tetap akan merasai perasaan seperti itu. Begitulah betapa besarnya suara pengkritik fesyen serta penggunanya yang akan menentukan pasaran bagi setiap musim rekaan. Fashion Week merupakan medan bertarung untuk kekal di dalam bidang ini. Samada anda mampu menjual koleksi kepada gedung2 besar(bagi koleksi pret a porter) ataupun mengumpul pelanggan2 yang mampu membayar ratusan ribu ringgit untuk sehelai gaun(bagi koleksi couture). itu adalah satu pertaruhan. Apatah lagi dunia serta pasaran fesyen didominasikan oleh wanita yag begitu berpengaruh-Anna Wintour (pengarang majalah american Vogue). pengaruh beliau amat besar hingga kesemua pereka akur dengan segala komentar beliau bagi mendapat review yang baik darinya,sekaligus meningkatkan jualan barangan fesyen mereka."
Rizalman Ibrahim


DEMI-COUTURE

And curious what is the definition of demi couture, so I'm asking for a help from my 'knowledge sifoo' - siapa lagi kalau bukan 'Sifoo Google'. ;)
So, this is basically what is exactly demi-couture.

What exactly is demi-couture?

To understand this new term, we have to define the meaning of couture, haute couture, and ready-to-wear or prêt-á-porter first.

“Couture” as defined by the Merriam-Webster dictionary is “the business of designing, making, and selling fashionable custom-made women's clothing.” It came from the French word, “cousture,” which means “sewing.”

“Haute couture” literally means “high sewing” and its present day definition is “the houses or designers that create exclusive and often trend-setting fashions for women.”

“Ready-to-wear” means off-the rack, ready-made clothes, and prêt-á-porter is a literal translation of ready-to-wear in French.

And “demi” means “half,” so “demi-couture” literally means “half-couture” or if you want a longer meaning, “half-custom-made women’s clothing.”

With that in mind, it makes sense why demi-couture is still classified under ready-to-wear in the fashion business.

The best way to explain demi-couture is to give examples, and New York, which is best known for its ready-to-wear designers, is a great place to find them.

***Source from here***

Demi-couture is emerging as a major development in clothing design, writes Mark Holgate in Vogue's July 2006 issue. What is it and how is it changing careers in fashion?

Holgate defines demi-couture as
"...somewhere between industrially produced designer fashion (the pret-a-porter, or ready-to-wear) and clothes created entirely by hand and after three fittings with a client (the haute couture)."
It's a big deal, and here's why.

Why Demi-couture Clothing Design?
Demi-couture provides an opportunity for clothing designers to begin making more artfully designed and crafted pieces for a larger number of fashion connoisseurs. If you have the money, you'll be able to buy these pieces off the rack--that alone means much more than a single piece will be produced. And what designer wouldn't want to design a $20,000 cashmere coat over a $100 cotton baby-doll dress that's been done a thousand times before?

Clothing Designers Devoted to Demi-couture
Naturally, top designers are the ones most likely to be producing demi-couture. Some of those Holgate listed include Nicolas Ghesquiere of Balenciaga, Olivier Theyskens of Rochas, and Alber Elbaz at Lanvin. There are many others, however, with high-profile careers in fashion taking advantage of this new opportunity, which some may surely recognize as an important emerging segment of the fashion market.

Okay, tata for now.

Look after my heart - I've left it with you...

I love you…. You are my life now…

Im here and I love you… I have always love you and I will always love you…

Before you, my life was an endless night, very dark, but there were stars - points of the light and reason…

And then you shot across my life like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire. There was briliancy, there was beauty.

Look after my heart - I've left it with you.

I'd rather die than be with anyone but you...

If I could dream at all, it would be about you...

You are the best part of me...

And so the lion fell in love with the lamb...

I'm in love!!!

Vee : Ain, Kak Anna jatuh cinta lagi.

My sis : Huh???

Vee : Jatuh cinta lagi sekali dengan Siwon lepas tengok "Oh! My Lady"!

My sis : Kak Anna ni kan... aduyai... haa tengoklah dia menari puas2. Hahaha!

Vee : Dah tengok puas dah. ;)

*sms Vee dengan adik Vee*

I'm in love once again with Choi Siwon!!! =p'

Okay okay, let's talk about "Oh! My Lady". Last weekend, Vee tak dapat online sebab internet problem. So, Vee habiskan masa dekat rumah tengok korean series yang dah lama Vee beli tapi tak berkesempatan nak tengok, "Oh! My Lady".

Komedi romantik drama "Oh! My Lady" mengisarkan tentang seorang Lisa suri rumah tangga yang naif dan lurus bendul tetapi tabah. Yoon Gae Hwa, 35 tahun, seorang ibu tunggal yang berusaha mendapatkan kerja tetap untuk membesarkan anak tunggalnya, Min Ji selepas bercerai dengan suaminya yang berlaku curang terhadapnya.

Vee ada google search sinopsis drama ni untuk share dengan you all tapi rasanya macam semuanya macam lari sikit dengan pemahaman Vee lepas tengok series tu. Hihihi.

Basically, drama ni mengisahkan tentang seorang ibu tunggal, Yoon Gae Hwa yang baru bercerai dengan suaminya yang berlaku curang terhadapnya. Hasil perkahwinannya dengan bekas suaminya, Gae Hwa mempunyai seorang anak perempuan, Min Ji. Atas desakan hidup, Gae Hwa terpaksa menyerahkan Min Ji kepada bekas suaminya untuk menjaga Min Ji untuk beberapa bulan sementara kewangannya kukuh.

Dipendekkan cerita * okay, I'm not good enough untuk menulis sinopsis =_=" *, Gae Hwa mengenali Sung Min Woo * Siwon, I love you! (_) *, seorang pretty boy top star.

Ish, macam panjang pulak kalau nak cerita sinopsis cerita ni. Hihihi. Kesimpulan yang Vee boleh buat selepas tengok series ni, setiap orang akan melakukan kesilapan dalam hidup masing-masing dan kita mungkin tak sedar, kesilapan yang kita buat tu mungkin akan memberi kesan ataupun impak yang buruk di dalam hidup kita pada suatu masa. Dan, pada waktu tu, kita tak dapat lari dari menyelesaikan masalah yang berpunca dari kesilapan kita sendiri sebelum itu. Contohnya, dalam series ni, Min Woo yang sedang berada di kemuncak kariernya, pada suatu masa dikejutkan dengan kehadiran seorang kanak-kanak perempuan yang comel di rumahnya. Kanak-kanak merupakan anak kandungnya hasil percintaan Min Woo dengan kekasihnya sebelum dia bergelar top star. Takut perkara tersebut tersebar dan mungkin akan memusnahkan kariernya, Min Woo mengupah Gae Hwa yang pada ketika itu baru memulakan kariernya di 'The Show Company'.

Dan, lagi kesimpulan yang Vee boleh buat selepas tengok series ni, tentang jodoh dan cinta. Kalau Tuhan dah tetapkan jodoh kita dengan seseorang yang mustahil pada pandangan mata orang ramai, ianya bukan suatu yang mustahil. Apa yang penting untuk menyatukan dua hati, adalah samada dua individu itu dapat hidup bahagia bersama ataupun tidak. Keserasian, understanding, kejujuran, dan masing-masing dapat menerima diri masing-masing seadanya ataupun tidak tanpa mengira umur, paras rupa ataupun darjat. Dan cinta itu tak memerlukan sebarang paksaan. Ia akan datang dengan sendirinya tanpa kita pinta. :)
Selagi perasaan itu membahagiakan, itulah cinta yang sebenar. :)

Jarak umur Gae Hwa dan Min Woo agak jauh berbeza. Gae Hwa, 35 tahun merupakan seorang ibu tunggal yang mempunyai seorang anak perempuan, bekerja sebagai pembantu rumah sebelum dapat bekerja di 'The Show Company'. Manakala Min Woo merupakan seorang top star kegilaan ramai gadis yang berwajah tampan dan mempunyai susuk badan yang mantap, berusia 26 tahun * age dif, do your own calculation ya? ;) *
Tanpa disedari, kedua-dua mereka menaruh hati sesama sendiri. Walaupun pada waktu itu Min Woo didekati bekas kekasihnya yang cantik, berkerjaya, seksi dan mempunyai susuk badan persis model, namun Mon Woo memilih untuk menjadikan Gae Hwa sebagai isterinya.
You all tengoklah ye kalau nak tau full story okay? :)
Boleh tengok dekat sini. :)

For kids lover, should watch this series. ;)

CHAE RIM




















Fav soundtrack dalam "Oh! My Lady", "I MUST BE BAD" by Siwon




I must be a bad person.
I cannot face you who are hurt.
I know your pain.
But why am I like this?
I know you better day by day.
But my heart slowly grows more weary.
If we get nearer, we will both be hurt.
I cry with no sound, I smile without caring how others look at me.
Behind you, I can barely control my urge to call out to you and stop you from leaving.
You are so pretty and I love you so much.
Asking you to forget me is just a lie, a lie.
Please don’t go. Don’t go away. Come back. Come back to me.
