Assalamualaikum wbt
Guess what I've been doing for the past few hours?
Watching lace stitching tutorial on Youtube and blogs!! And I watched them with so much focus!
I must be crazy to do this, but yes I did.
Since I'm going on 22, and about to graduate for another 1 year, and realize how hard it is to earn money after going through 5 months of practical, and how much money I've spent these few months on ridiculous and careless matter ----- accidents and rents, I finally came to the sense that I need to do something to save and earn money.
When I talk about saving money, people would immediately responded with 'Saving for wedding ehhhh?'. Aaaaaaa, does saving money must necessarily be for wedding? With current economic situation in our country, young generations like me, have got to be prepared financially for the future life ahead. Life is tough people. Anything can happen, especially at the times when you are least expecting it. Like what happened when I accidentally hit on someone's car and have to pay for the cost of repairing, and also when I accidentally broken a lady's spectacles in Surau and have to pay for the repairing cost too. If you were in my situation and easily get panic, you would immediately thought 'Oh dielah how am I going to pay for this??!' *nanges* Though there's always a way to solve it. Biasalah. Gelabah. Hahah.
But Alhamdulillah, luckily, I'm in the middle of my practical. So I have my allowance money to be used for those accidents. But then, there goes my allowance money. Before I started my practical, I've already intend to use them for my own expenses, no more asking money from Ummi. At least, for 6 months. Ahaha. I remembered when I received my first 'salary', I felt so grown up, so proud, and happily told Ummi 'After this Ummi you don't have to give me monthly expenses anymore!'. Ceh! Alik-alik, after the accidents happened, I end up going back to my mother and said 'Ummi, I have to depends on you now'.
Tak apalah. Perancangan Allah tu lebih baik.
So who says money is not important? It is! Just don't make it as an ultimate priority lah.
Sooo, the reason I happened to be so eager watching videos on stitching tutorials are because of two reasons: First, my frustration towards the expensive simple dresses that are extremely famous nowadays that I decided to do it myself; Second, my plan to start a business on my own.
You know what's in my head right now? I thought of taking sewing classes, learn how to sew simple clothing like baju kurung, blouses, jubah, baju melayu and learn how to do the beading as well. I also plan to sharpen my sketching and doodling skills, and start doodling on tote bags, t-shirts and all. Oh wait, there's more. I plan to learn making cakes and desserts as well!
So with all of these, I am hoping to open up a boutique, or a cafe, or a boutique cafe, and have my own labels. Why not right? Sounds nice. Looks beautiful. Because all of these are my favourite things and my passion. Wouldn't it be perfect to have your own business based on your passion?
Too ambitious? Nehhh. Insya Allah, if I am deadly serious on this and make efforts for it, Allah will show me the way. I have some other plans in my head too but I thought, hold on ma cherie. One by one.
May all of these plans, will not JUST be plans. Biiznillah.
Yeah, that's me. The one with too much plans. The clumsy and careless one.
