I woke up to a clean house yesterday afternoon. B had vacuumed, swept and cleared the dining-table that was piling up with bags and all the other clutter accumulated over the week. The kids were sleeping inside their condo and all the doors and windows were opened. It felt airy and fresh and after my sinus attack the previous day, it was indeed much appreciated. It's always nice to be pampered when I'm under the weather, so thank you so much love! I woke up smiling.
My good mood was further elevated when I visited my BFF Emila to find a beautiful and very meaningful award waiting for me at her blog!
I am truly honoured to receive this beautiful Premio Dardos Award from Emila, author of Emila's Illustrated Blog! To receive something this precious from someone so talented makes it all the more amazing for me. The meaning behind the award too is something I hold dearly in my blogging journey and to have it acknowledged by this wonderful recognition makes this the best award I've received for Wishing on a Falling Star this year. Thank you for choosing me as your recipient Emila!
“The Premio Dardos Award is given for recognition of cultural, ethical, literary, and personal values transmitted in the form of creative and original writing. These stamps were created with the intention of promoting fraternization between bloggers, a way of showing affection and gratitude for work that adds value to the Web.”
Since this is a very special award, I will play by the rules and select only 5 blogs which I truly feel deserve this award. I apologize for not being able to choose the other blogs that I love, but know that you're in my thoughts as well.
CONGRATULATIONS

FC/ FC?
Yihaaa.. FC!! FC!!
lol!!
congrats lj!!! alamak missed fc!
just watched slumdog millionaire!!
nice movie la! no wonder menang award!
yihaa :'(
wooohooo!! :'( :'( :'(
best kan emila.. you know the only issue i have with that movie?? the fact that frieda pinto exploded to become a hollywood celebrity overnight padahal her role in that movie was just THAT.
The children really made the movie what it was.. and Dev Patel tu.. but frieda pinto? hmm.. sikit je lah. LOL!
Congratulations on the award Marzie!! and to your 5 recipients as well!! you all deserve it mucho mucho!! LOL! :* :* :-D :-D
Recent blog post: The Apprentice!
exactly! i think the children were great actors!!! they did awesome job! and oh, remember when amitabh bachan came to visit? he jumped in the swamp of feces!
dev patel really did a great acting too! and the brother is not bad too! freida tu sikit je part dia!
nengok nengok nak jadi the next bond girl pulak!
fc ler...
yeah, congrats to all recipients!!! wohoo!! :* :* :*
AMITABH BACHAAAAAN! LOL! I loooove that part!!
The children did more for the movie than any other actors. Now they're back at home, slightly improved condition.. and Frieda Pinto is somewhere in Paris for the Chanel Fall Fashion Show. hmmm.. something wrong somewhere..
wakey wakey :* :*

yeahh.. dev patel and his brother tu, were at the heart of the movie. I agree. But itu lah.. with the amount of publicity she's receiving, you'd expect to see more of her. I was so shocked that she played such a minor part! when i saw the movie, i was like, you mean THAT's it?? (for frieda's part) hahahahaah
Congrats to the 5 recipients!! 8-)

yea shemah, she's the talk of the net (or maybe prints? am so left out when it comes to prints!) lol! saw headlines, 'freida pinto: the next bond girl"
i like how they found similar faces to fit in as the brothers. the casting director did a good job on that!
it's raining season here too, ecl; well mostly at nights!
totally! poor boys! but bollywood big boys didn't like the movie; they said it showed that bad side of Mumbai. But heck, that is the reality right?! This is what people needs to see, not some parts lari kejar2 dekat mountains with beautiful saree what not!
I pity those living in poverty...
lj...mana awak? pi supper ke?
oy vey.. next bond girl ah.. woww! she's so lucky lah.. especially for her less than 30 minute airtime on slumdog.
a'ahh kan?? so similar.. there were 3 sets of brothers and they all looked alike! I heart those children!
betul tu emila.. they malu kot bagi hollywood tengok that part of mumbai.. and exactly like you said lah.. that's reality. yang bergolek tak habis2 sambil having 5 changes of outfits all the way down the hill tu yang diorang nak portray kat hollywood kot?
LJ baru datang chop at my blog! hehehe.. she's a superduper bz woman lah these days.. heheeheh..
i heart them too!
that's why!
oh oh i like the ending!! the typical dancing scene! that is so bollywood hehe! nasib baik ada satu scene menari je!!
lj tido ke? mana mungkin!
lj, lj...tu air liur meleleh! haa ngantuk ye?
lol, oklah enough of slumdog millionaire hehe nanti marzie marah lol!
hahahaha.. yeah! oh wow.. kita ni asyik chatting.. tak tau marzie dah tgk lum?? he he he he he..
hahahahah when you say that air liur meleleh, you remind me of my hubby, J, he likes to sing Sting's Desert Rose song with his modified lyrics.. "Air liuuurr.. meleleh leleh... " hahahaha..
hahahaah.. a'ah.. tak sedar kite syok sendiri.. tup tup orang lain sumer tak tgk lagi.. uh oh..
lol! mengechop rupanya!
hahahhahaha
tu lah..uh-oh! are we in trouble? hehe
am awake, mon!
hahaha tu lah.. jangan sangka LJ takde.. the moment you tweet an update, she's ready to chop!! LOL!

Marzie I also got an award for you!
http://floatinginportwine.today.com/2009/03/15/awards/
I also just cleaned my room from top to bottom yesterday and OMG I feel so much better! :-D
Of course it's a Sunday and I'm back at work already, but oh well. I guess you win some and you lose some eh? :-P
Amylea is kinda lost kan? I don't see her true identity yet. But she's good! Esther is surprisingly great! I didn't expect much from her la but I could feel her emotions from her performances. Fify pulak, she has potential, but not my fave. What about that "mat rock 80an" Aweera? Comel la he! mesti mix Siam tu hehehehe...
I might, might, might write about Tomok on FC wahahahahahahahahaha mesti bnyk hits! Woohoo! Thanks Shem for the idea. ;)
So sweet of B to clean up the house :)
No wonder you are thrilled & somemore receive a great award from Emila :)
