Favorite Characters

Harith, like other boys of his age memang ada minat towards certain cartoon/tv characters. Masa umur dia around 1 to 2 years old minat benar dengan Barney the Purple Dinosaur. Barney is really a good show for children development. It has a very interesting approach to educate children with alphabets, numbers and good manners. Harith learned a lot from Barney.

Dah besar sikit, Harith was introduced to Thomas and Friends. Harith becomes Thomas the Blue Engine #1 fan ever since. He owns almost every single VCD/DVD of Thomas' series. Mainan toksah cerita la. Boleh kata most of the main characters dia ada. Ada satu kedai Choo Choo Train at Great Eastern Mall, Ampang used to be our weekend escapade almost every weekend. Masuk kedai tu confirm dapat habuan. Activity books and baju Thomas pun dia ada. Even during his 3rd Birthday party, we had Thomas as the theme. Birthday cake, decorations and goodies pack for the kids are all Thomas and Friends. Sampaikan kawan-kawan yang dah memang tau minat Harith towards Thomas hadiahkan dia Thomas toys. Macam-macam ada la. Even kat States ni pun dia still minat lagi, walaupun dah slowdown.


Lepas Thomas, dia minat characters from Disney Cars pulak. Lightning McQueen and the gang. Susah juga nak cari toys ni sebab dah off-season. However, later on nasib baik la Toys r' Us tetiba keluarkan balik mainan Cars ni. Sempat la beli a few. One of Harith's cousin ada character Mack the Truck tapi beli masa Cars tengah heat la. Mana la nak carik, dah merata pi jenguk. One day kebetulan ada kat Bangsar Shopping Center, merayau la tengok kat one of the toy shop dalam tu. Kebetulan pulak ada jual Mack. Apa lagi beli terusss. Bila dah datang States ni, takde la nak bawak semua mainan dia. Tapi bila kat sini, perasan the selection was wide and the price is cheaper. Start la collect semula Cars characters ni.


Now dah nak masuk 5 years old ni dah pandai minat benda lain. Sekarang ni dia dah start suka Hotwheels cars and Ben 10. Nasib baik la benda-benda ni tak mahal kat States. Hotwheels boleh beli 99 cents je. Ben 10 characters pun affordable. Ben 10 ni kat Malaysia boleh tahan mahal gak la. Jam Ben 10 ni, which known as the Omnitrix costed around RM110, and kat sini jual around $15 je. Punya la jauh beza. Anyhow, nasib baik gak la sorang je hero buat masa ni. Tak la parah sangat...

What's Your Favourite Color?

Most people have their favorite color. Ada macam2 reasons orang bagi untuk justify favorite color masing2. Ada yang kata memang color zodiac, ada yang dibesarkan dengan color tu and ada yang simply just suka color tu. There's also some articles saying that colors represents the characteristics/personalities of an individual. Some people are obsess with their favorite colors till they dressed in their colors, decorate their house in their colors or even drive a car of their colors.

Both of us don't really have a specific color to go with. However, when it comes to home deco, it'll always comes to Green as our preference. To blend it with, a choice of earth based color cames in. For us, the concept of mixture of green and earth color makes the environment within the house feels cozy and soothing. Nak cari furnitures with such color pun senang. Even it can be blend either with modern or conservatives type of furnitures. However, not every part of the house must looks green.



Back home in Malaysia, both of us drove Red color cars. Red color cars ni senang nak maintain. Kalau kotor pun tak berapa obvious. Furthermore, red color on cars nampak elegant.







- red kembara dlm kenangan











Look at this blog, boleh agak la kot what is our preferred color. Does the theme color reflects our preferences?
Well, what's your favorite color?

Happy Earth Day

Every year on April 22nd the Americans especially the environmental activists celebrates Earth Day. Kebetulan memang musim Spring, pokok-pokok baru nak start keluar daun / bunga. Earth Day marks the anniversary of the birth of the modern environmental movement in 1970. Founded by the organizers of the first April 22 Earth Day in 1970, Earth Day Network promotes environmental citizenship and year round progressive action worldwide.

Earth Day is the only event celebrated simultaneously around the globe by people of all backgrounds, faiths and nationalities. More than a half billion people participate in Earth Day Network campaigns every year. Even dalam Facebook pun ader. Friends have been superpoking Earth Day, gone green with each other in Facebook :D

Hari ni masa hantar Harith ke sekolah tengok atas meja yang biasa letak notices for parents ada deretan pasu-pasu plastik yang kecik dan comel. Rupanya dalam last week, Harith and his friends at school ada projek tanam pokok. Knowing anak teruna kami ni, mana la dia nak cerita benda-benda macam ni kat mama and ayah. Rasanya sebab tu la most of the time the teachers bagi notes / notices to the parents.

This is the picture of Harith's first plant. Lets hope it'll last long enough. Knowing us, pokok-pokok yang kami cuba tanam, memanjang je tak menjadi.

Happy Earth Day to all....
