Little Thing 214 : Soul Eater

* It's Friday. There are 10 12 open tasks for UI designing and 6 more tasks for the promo and other collateral. So I just spend my early morning staring at the monitor, thinking about how survival might disguised as a soul eater. I always thought that I'm a hard-core adaptable learner because I managed to work at online news publisher semi agency for that 2 years - until -...

We had travelled approximately around 600km in 2 days :F I went to Af's old building...

Little Things 213 : Muji Planner 2016

I love planners, because I love writing things down and I love to plan. Usually there are 3 type of people :  people who are constantly write things down - the planner, the organized freak, the to-do list person, the writer, the doodler, etc. people who are not - even when they are given a new planner, they will probably give it to someone else or just keep it as a collection. and people...

Little House : 500sqft

We are nesting. I think we overspent on buying little things we never thought we needed : like the place to put washed dishes, or the tiny case to put our keys and rings and pins, or the 3-plugs outlets, or hanging rods, or coaster for hot kettle or frying pans and pots. All the items we simply overlooked when we stayed with a big family for so long, those stuffs a mother prepared for us...

Work Related : I'm a Backpacker - Europe

Read previous post on : I'm a Backpacker : Korea by Halian Azurin Right after I went back from my Tokiyo Trip, Miss Jann contacted me again - this time to illustrate the next "I'm a Backpacker" series - Europe by Khairul Abdullah. I enjoyed the previous job, so I decided to take the task. My favorite freelance job for 2015 was the books ! It wasn't as many illustrations needed as the Korea...

Work Related : In Between

This is the point where I am on the verge to give-up. Tasks at work multiply daily. I've been doing a lot of things, my job varies from designing a promotion to creating the whole structure for the website for both desktop and mobile, or designing mockup and wireframes, making places for random image re-sizing and designing little things for the admin desk. It never stops coming. I've never...

Illustration : Sailormoon & CCS Sticker Packs

I forgot all about my latest sticker packs at Etsy :  The Sailormoon Sticker Pack & Cardcaptor Sakura Stickers. I managed to finish up all the sailor characters and including Sakura from Cardcaptor Sakura several months back. All done using the dying MBP and uncountable restarts - I'm very proud of my determination ! Hah. The calming look inspiration came from my Sleepyhead troopers...

Little Stories 217 : Allergic

My weekend ended with hot rashes alongside of my face and reddish dots all over my body, like little bumps from mini mosquito bites. I didn't know what I ate or what I touched, but what I know : I was having an allergic reaction.   My face felt hot and itchy. I felt itchy everywhere, all over my body, I felt like crying. I took cold shower twice, I tried to sleep but I was distracted by...

Work Related : Bfab Promo 2016

I created a funky-blinking promo ads for Bfab. Originally I wanted something classy and clean looking, so I designed some options based on what 'classy' means to me. But my bosses said we need various kind of audience for this launch promo. You can make bookings on our website, it is still in Beta mode - that means a lot of bugs and flaws and annoying unwanted spaces and wrong font sizes. But...

Little Stories 216 : Post Birthdays

It's 'that' time of the year ! I love new year, it's birthday time for all 4 of us : Aja in March, Azmi in Feb, both Azura and Me in January. Consider '5' now since Af's birthday is in April. I love birthdays, especially when I have some money to spend on them.  I've been putting some consideration in what to give to my younger sister. Her's on the 4th, after my birthday on the 3rd of...

Little House : 2nd Studio Apartment

So we've been searching for a place to live in for half a year ! It is really hard to find a decent place to live in with affordable monthly payment. I'm in love with small personal space. My previous studio apartment that I rented was 675 sq ft. This time, we found a studio apartment smaller than before, it's only 500 sq ft ! :D When the owner opened the door to the apartment, I knew I wanted...

Mini Escapism : New Year Putrajaya & Hulu Langat

On the new year's eve, we slept early.  We didn't wait for any party, fireworks or greetings, by 10.30pm we both were just too exhausted to do anything after a whole day at work. Weird how our body changes through age, kan.  But later by 3.30 am, we were both awake and can't sleep. Af said that we should go out for a really early breakfast and hunt for our morning sunrise like we...

Little Thing 212 : Blog

I used to have several blogs in early 2009.  I started with my personal writing blog, doodle blog, and travel blog. I maintained those blogs separately, each focusing on their topic. Years after, I combined those blog into this one for 2 reasons : 1. I want to be known as whole. The person who writes, draws and travels is the same person. Sometimes I write about things that I like, sometimes...
