Aurelie’s 5th birthday Party

13 Nov 2013, Posted by michellerusli in aurelie salim, birthday

Aurelie had her 5th birthday recently. It took place at Mc Donald’s where she invited her friends from pre-school and ballet classes. She had an amazing time dancing to her favourite songs, playing on the slides and etc. There was definitely less work for my sister in terms of gifts and decorating the area as it was all covered by Mc Donalds. Hence if you’re ever thinking of a place to celebrate your child’s birthday I suggest you to have it at Mc D.

This week I have been busy photographing 2 events one is for the Melbourne cup Luncheon and the other is for the Buunji conference that goes on for a about 4 days. I got to finish it early today, So I thought why not hang out with one of my niece ‘ Natalie’. It was a great day out. I’ve definitely been missing out on the nice weather and lunch, and this is a nice day to catch up for it all.

Bangkok – Pattaya – Chonburi – Laos Thailand

Super lucky to have wonderful parents who’ve loved me so much and cared for me since the day I was born. and yes you guess it, they took me on a trip to Thailand and Laos. I’ve been travelling so much this year that I couldn’t keep count. So I really thank them for giving me this opportunity to see more of the world. What is Thailand like? if you ask me for my honest opinion it’s amazing this must be the 3rd time I’ve been there and I’m still not sick of it. ( of course I’ll show you all the photos I took ) didn’t take much this time,  please excuse me as I was too busy shopping and buying things for myself and gifts for friends and families. ( I did take a lot with my Iphone though 🙂 ) As for Laos, the food is super yummy, but it’s not the type of place where you could stay for very long. It’s a small and poor country, it’s sad to see a majority of their citizens struggling to live. but it’s a really good experience to see their culture. one word that I’ve learn in Laos was kop chai meaning thank you and Sabaidee meaning hello. Slightly different to Thai.  

Puncak – Indonesia

I’m so glad to start of the year by travelling back to my home county Jakarta Indonesia. However it wasn’t what I’ve expected it to be, Jakarta has been flooding severely, the citizens live in hunger, lost of home as well as sickness. I was lucky enough to live in the apartment, although there was flood in my area I wasn’t affected by it much. Except for the lack of food, we had to cook with what was left in our fridge, as there was no delivery in our area.    The rain has been going on non stop for the last couple of weeks to avoid the risk of being locked at home again. My family has decided to fled out to the mountains area, where there wasn’t any flood there   Here are some on the photos I took !! The view is breathtaking! Would love to return here again someday.

Salim Family Photo

First of all I would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and Happy New year. Thank you for all your support and words of encouragements. I’m glad that the world didn’t end in 2012 so I could continue blogging my journey from today onwards. I know that I set a lot of goals for myself at the beginning of this year. I didn’t end up achieving most of it. But this year is going to be different, I will set a different expectations for myself, and find ways to achieve it. One of them being opening my own business! Freelance all the way ! 🙂 To start of the year. I will show you some photos that I took at the end of last year. Hope you will like them as much as I do. Took these in half an hour because it was so cold and windy that we had to leave the park. Will definitely do more of these this year!  

My Niece Natalie

My brother and sister in law ask me to take photo of their daughter ‘Natalie’, just so that they could use it as her passport photo!  oh isn’t it difficult to photograph kids standing still!, I guess they like to run around and play! So it was definitely challenging, but I love the result of these photos! Thankfully I could capture them within two mins, just before she starts crying again!
