well, hello blog. it surely has been a long time! and how fitting that i decided to write a post on the very last day of 2023. to be frank, it’s not that i don’t want to write, cos i do, as a matter of fact, enjoy writing. given the situation, i simply don’t have…
missing my baby
Mommy misses you my cutie pie. I don’t know what I’m doing with my life… Sometimes I question if I’m doing the right thing. How can doing a right thing feels so wrong? Sometimes I ask myself if this is all worth it. Why do I have to sacrifice so much? I can’t bear the…
Allah is the only audience that matters.
Recently, I felt deeply wounded by actions of a certain someone who I cared and respected so much. The said person has helped me through hard times, and provided me with aid when I needed most. I was moved and truly overwhelmed by this person’s kindness and had inspired me to do the same to…
a letter to my flower
it has been the best one year of my life. a year where i stepped into the world of motherhood, a year filled with excitement, with immense love and happiness, a year of firsts, a year of trials and errors, a year of having life filled with joy now that you’re part of my world.…
2022 in a nutshell
If one could age so drastically in a year, that would be me in 2022. I have grown from someone who is self-conscious — from constantly thinking about how I need to maintain my weight below a certain scale, ensuring my 8 hours of daily hibernation, maintaining my monthly facial care, ticking off weekly checklists…
letter to my lily

Lily-Rose’s first road trip!
Just 6 weeks in, Lily-Rose was ready to take on the long drive! Well, to be clear, a two-and-a half hour long drive. We were visiting Lily’s dear uncle Ziz who is currently studying in a boarding school in Ipoh. Since it was our first time bringing our little third wheeler out of the state,…
Lily-Rose’s first KLCC park outing
Well, now that we officially have a third-wheeler in the house (+ Oreo our furry child, but he doesn’t go out much), I guess it’s fair to commemorate every weekend trip like a mini celebration. I mean, why not, right? At least I get to finally update this blog after what seemed like a gazillion…
Happy 1 month old!
Happy 1 month, my dearest Lily-Rose. Mommy loves you with all her heart, and I’m sure Daddy is too. If you must know, some 8 months ago, mommy was in a rollercoaster of emotions after discovering she was carrying you. I was in a state of shock that I had 4 pregnancy tests done just…
sluggish mornings
Lately I’ve been feeling extremely tired in the morning even though I’ve had a good 7-ish hours of sleep. It is definitely a struggle to wake up and not contemplate on taking Grab to work. Our home from the nearest LRT takes about roughly 12 minutes of walking, which isn’t that bad to be honest,…
Scenic Beach Hike @ Bukit Batu Putih
There are two types of people in the world – those that enjoy sceneries from up above, and those that enjoy sceneries from down below. We’re talking about elevation here. But, what if there is a place where you can enjoy the best of both worlds? Few weeks ago, we drove up to Tanjung Tuan,…
Bukit Senaling: A hike above the clouds
Last Sunday, both of us, joined by our college friends have decided to hike Bukit Senaling of Kuala Pilah, popularly known for her panoramic views above the clouds. The hike up is a lot less challenging than her neighboring counterparts, namely Gn. Angsi and Datok. The route is less steep and of average distance. However,…
Gunung Angsi via Bukit Putus
If you’re looking for a decent hike to enjoy the greenery, not so the scenery, and to somewhat test your endurance but not so challenging — then this is the perfect hike. Gunung Angsi challenges you at the beginning portion of the hike, where she welcomes you with a steep ramp that you have to…
How to Motivate Yourself To be Healthy at Home?
Yep, that is a mouthful of a title, we know. Let’s be real, most of us are not productive at home. Home, for a lot of people, are a sanctuary or a place to relax and to be permissibly lazy without getting judged at. However, that has to turn around now that most of us…
Pine Tree Trail @ Fraser Hill
Hello! Welcome to another episode of….. ‘What Did We Do Last Weekend?’ Last Sunday, both of us were joined in with Yasmine’s brother, Qayyum and his friend, Asyraf to hike Pine Tree Trail, located in Bukit Fraser. Apart from Pine Tree, there are several other trails that are available in Bukit Fraser for you hungry…
Sunrise hike @ Gunung Datuk
Hello there! Today, we’re going to tell you about our recent trip to Gunung Datuk, which is located in Rembau. We woke up pretty early in the wee hours of Sunday morning as the drive from KL to Rembau took about 1 hr 35 minutes. We reached Gunung Datuk at 5am in the morning. This…
White water rafting @ KKB
Last Sunday, both of us and a couple of our friends (Luqman Aidil and Hariz Rokman) decided to try out white water rafting at Sg. Selangor, Kuala Kubu Bharu with Xventure Mind tour group. There are several other locations that provide commercial white water rafting trips across Peninsular Malaysia, namely in Ulu Slim, Gopeng as…
Mt Kinabalu: highest point of Malaysia
Hello folks! Today’s post will be interesting because Fahim and I are going to talk about our 2 day/ 1 night hike on the highest peak of Malaysia, Mt. Kinabalu. This trip is very dear to our hearts because we have been talking about scaling it ever since our college days, and that dragged on…
sweatspa: Not your regular sauna!
Hey there! A week ago, I decided to try out the Full Spectrum Infrared Sauna Therapy at Sweatspa located in Great Eastern Mall. I have never been to a sauna before, let alone a full spectrum infrared sauna, whatever that means! But… I decided to give it a go and experience this sophisticated looking therapy…
Experience in Nuang
Hey folks! Today we would like to share our hike to Gunung Nuang a couple of weeks ago. This was done as our preparation for Mt. Kinabalu. We picked Nuang as our training ground as most hikers within the Klang Valley are aware of the difficulty that Nuang poses — the distance, the wilderness, the…
sushi love
Who here loves sushi as much as we do? 🙋🏻♀️ This evening, I brought Fahim to one of my favorite Japanese restaurants in KL called Rakuzen. We had some good ol’ salmon sashimi, some yakinikujyu (grilled beef 🥩 on rice 🍚), some spicy zosui-beef (spicy beef broth on rice), and also some tempura mori (combined…
welcome to weekendlogue
Hi there! Before we start off with the rest of our postings, we think it would be appropriate to first introduce ourselves. Who are we? We’re Fahim and Yasmine, co-authors of this blog. We’re pretty much like any other Malaysians in their 20s, in which we are both trying to make ends meet, while maintaing…
