a whirlwind of sorts

And its the weekend!
Well everyday is like a weekend to me so its been nice.

The past week has been fun. Its a complete luxury to have all the time at hand to do all the things you want to do.
Lots of meet ups here and there,shopping,reading and relaxing at home.

On friday I met up with a bunch of friends from SAM.Aside from priscilla dearest,i havent met the rest in ages so it was a very nice catchup session.

me,priss and alison

jianwen and kweejin

At night I watched another musical with my family and this time,at Istana Budaya.We watched Cuci and let me just say, it was SO HILARIOUS!The crowd went insane with laughter and i laughed so much till my tummy hurt.The musical lasted about 3 hours and all I did was laugh laugh and laugh. It was that funny,trust me!Everyone had a really good time.Lotsa really funny lines and jokes and man can everyone really sing.It was quite a coincidence too that one of the backup cast is actually a girl we know from church and I was so surprised to see her dance and hear her sing!That voice of hers,seriously,amazing.

the four main leads:awie,the gorgeous hans isaac,afdlin shauki and ac mizal.
and there was harith iskandar,adibah noor and vanida imran too!
all superb singers my goodness!!

Datuk Seri Abdullah Badawi with Tun Jeanne Abdullah on stage with the cast.
we were seated a few rows in front of them and im pretty certain they were having a good time laughing away too!

weekend getaway @ pd

Hello!Im back from pd,slightly burnt but feeling very healthy.I still feel slightly flushed from the trip and i think it would take some time for it to hopefully dissapear. I dont know why i am associating feeling flushed with feeling healthy but anyway, it was a nice trip. (This icon with the flushed cheeks seem to illustrate me very clearly lol!)

It was really hot in pd and smart me,left the most essential thing to bring when you head to the beach; sunblock!

On the way to pd, we stopped by for some really good banana leaf rice at Curry Leaf Restaurant, Seremban.The place is pretty popular and everyone says its a must try.Anyone going past Seremban really should try this place out. I love their banana leaf,much nicer than the ones ive tried around here. The curries were really tasty and very spicy,just the way i like it!

After lunch we headed straight to pd!

we stayed at legend water chalets this time round.we usually stay at avillion and though legend is only 2 years old, i think avillion has slightly nicer chalets. i still remember their gorgeous 4 poster beds!

on the way to our chalet!

our premium executive suite number was my birthday!

and me!
we brought the slr with us and to be honest,i hardly used it haha!its so big and bulky that my brothers had to take charge of it most of the time.think i'll stick to my canon powershot for awhile longer.

fendi sale!

Because im still feeling exhilarated from yesterday's shopping experience,today's post ( much to the dismay of the guys), will be all about it!

Yesterday I had a really fun day out and about kl.Mum and I visited the fendi family sale at Marriott and it was excellent!Loads of good bargains and I highly recommend everyone to attend it if you have the time.

We went crazy looking at all the gorgeous shoes,bags and apparel that were all heavily discounted!The original price for most of the shoes were in the thousand range but at the sale,they were going for about rm200-rm500!And the bags were really nice,all 50-70% off ahhhh!!It was like heaven on earth for everyone in the room.Everyone looked so focused and it was quite crazy finding size 5 shoes but we manage to snag up a few pairs.If you are attending the sale,make sure you bring a friend along for support and to be your extra pair of eyes! Met Deborah Priya there too among others,shes so pretty and amazingly tall.

sale;my favourite word in the Eng language

excited shoppers!interesting story about this picture below

our buys!!bags and size 5 shoes!
those of the opposite sex dont seem to understand how hard it is to find a pair of size 5 shoes, let alone 4 during a sale but let me just say,its almost as hard as winning the lottery!

my favourite purchase!the heel goes on forever but i'll manage somehow!

mum spotted this the moment we stepped in!the kitten heels are in gold and really pretty!

couldnt decide on blue or black so we took both!

It was lots of fun shopping and we had lots of really funny experiences.I'll just share one in case i'll bore everyone out lol!The pink bag that you see in the picture above?We initially got the yellow one.We were really rooting for the pink one but it was already taken by another lady as you can see in the 2nd pic.The pale yellow was nice too bt the pink was so much prettier!It came in white/beige/pink/yellow/blue.We didnt really like the others and were deciding between the yellow and the pink but we were a minute or two slow so it was the yellow. To cut the long story short,we paid for the yellow and were about to leave when the really sweet lady decided she would take the blue and give us the pink!!You should have seen the expression on our faces!!!I highly doubt she would be reading this but if you are,thanks so much once again!Some ppl are just so sweet right?

so here are the details of the sale!its a private event so its not very pack.go girls and let me know how you found it!

After all the shopping,we had a very nice lunch at Shanghai in Marriott.

our half eaten meal.we had yummy xiu long pao,sea cucumber soup,fried yamcake,chicken pie biscuits,drunken chicken,mai lou kou, a few other thingsand all washed down by their really nice flower tea.The best dimsum ive had for awhile!

my pretty flower tea!

On the 28th I had an equally fun day. Met dear pris for lunch and it was such a nice catchup session. I dont think ive had such a deep heart to heart conversation for a long time.Thanks babe,I love you!Safe trip back to Msia and later on to Aus!xx

not a very clear pic of us but precious nonetheless because its our one and only!

At night I went for the premier screening of Micheal Jackson's ' This Is It' at klcc.

It was okay i suppose. I feel bad saying its boring when i've been reading in the papers how good it was.Maybe i was quite sleepy hmm.But it earned $2.2 million on its first night so kudos!

I'll be off to pd for a short weekend getaway so have a good weekend everyone and I'll update once im back!

its not called retail therapy for nothing

***

So these few days have been crazy,annoying,upsetting and tiring for more reasons than I can say.And my pocket has certainly been experiencing the wrath more than anything else.Hmm -_-When things like these happen, you either move on with life or just crumble down, mourn in self-pity and pray for better days.Ive been doing the latter far too often in the past that I think its really enough. The next annoying thing is that i've been down with a rather annoying eye allergy since friday argh!My right eye is red,swollen,itchy and constantly tearing which is not very pleasant i tell you.Its so irritating! And also on a less irritating note,work has been deferred for a month!!Pros and cons definitely with the pro being that I suddenly have a vast amount of time to work on my paper after working on it like mad fr the past weeks and the cons being suddenly afraid of all the empty days ahead!But im sure they will be filled very soon,knowing the v. demanding ppl surrounding me haha!

And i need a hugee favour to ask from everyone and anyone reading this.I'll be heading over to Scotland with my parents for about 2 weeks in december and right now we are trying to plan itbut I dont even know where to start or which places are the must visit etcetc!We'll be most prob driving around in Scotland so we are trying to work out a route and how many days to allocate for each city.So if anyone out there has some useful info/tips to share,please do & i'll love u forever!
