I have no words to describe. Solo exhibition is my dream for a long time since I know photography. When everything seems in place, my great commitment goes to my mother health condition. Each day, she seems like going down the hill. We just cannot stop praying. Allah know best, that we as His servant has no idea what is coming. At the same time this weekend, a concurrent display of my work with other amazing women photographers again in conjunction with an International Women’s Day. How can I not be thankful? For the life lessons I am picking every single day. For the appreciation of my work to be shared with the public so I can get the message I have in me via my work to spread around. Check out the|refinery on their Facebook here.

Yesterday, I sat with a French journalist for an interview to be featured in a French online newspaper, Le Petit Journal Kuala Lumpur telling stories about my work for the solo exhibition this Friday. We both sit at the coffee shop, sharing each other stories as a daughter & son of a breast cancer patients. I was so moved & it warmed my heart. I will need a translator to read me the content once they are out as I don’t understand French!

Did you read the Sunday article in the Sunday Times? My beautiful makeup artist was on the cover of Life & Times! Read the article by Aneeta Sundararaj here!

Without a single word yet I come out for my speech, I will see you all this Friday!

Let me be honest, with mom in the hospital & her condition is going down the hill, I am praying. Begging for the strength for me to go through this unexpected situations (no human being want to expect this). The sadness can easily hit me at any time, no mercy. But I have my faith, believes & amazingly beautiful soul of people around me. Past one week I was a little down, with the exhibition date is around the corner, (to date I have only 16 days before the show). I even wrote to some people how I felt. I am trying any possible ways or whatever it takes to hold on. When the article came out in The Star yesterday, I received so many text messages, all saying congratulations & being proud of me! How can I not being so grateful for that? The things that money can’t buy! Until I received a text message from my aunty congratulating  me & asking of my mom’s condition. I can’t hold on, burst into tears alone in the shower! I felt so alone!  Today, I woke up & searching back again for some inspirations with nothing to expect. I have been telling hubby that I am feeling different from before, I am happy but the excitement is not the same like my first group exhibition 2 years ago. I have some reference that I always listen/watch them speaking about how to live our life happily, full with positive energy & believe in ourselves. These people are so full with positive energy! One of the vlog that I came across this morning was saying about letting go & receiving the unexpected which is a surprise! Watch the video & I hope you too will understand & getting what I am getting.

Check the article link here for your reading, I think it was beautifully written by Shalini (who is sweet like sugar!)

Love, love & full of love! Cut the crap & letting go!

PHOTOGRAPHY EXHIBITION

It was a long weekend and I am working on finishing my materials for the exhibition. I had wonderful people from The Star in the studio for an interview session on Tuesday. Let’s wait for the article to be out. Some meetings here & there, and I have seen the press release, the invitation card & the first cut of the teaser video! I am freaking nervous for knowing the launching evening flow. In between of everything, I am developing the guest list for the night! Not to be freak out anymore, mom has been admitted again on Saturday evening after her tube accidentally came out! Naughty mom, she can’t sit still but being so cute! Love her! I am sharing a second look from the teaser video for your view really soon!

Love & light!
