Wassup guys?!? its the end of the year now...since our 'pengapit' is getting married (hubby's bestest fren, a MUST to go to..), we planned our year-end vacation aka shopping trip aka reunion with frens in KL....
24/12/2010, Friday :
head out from home around 8.30am...not too late from my expected time of departure at 8am (started packing about a week before =D)... pit stopped at gunung semanggol's RNR for breakfast....i can proudly say, we brought our own food : rice+boiled eggs+sambal ikan bilis...juz need to buy 'teh tarik'....since the sambal was leftovers, it gave me idea to simply cook rice n boiled eggs the night before...stopped at 2 more RNRs to change Ariana's diaper n bought lunch, we arrived at the hotel around 1pm....
after checking in, we headed to putrajaya, the nikah's event to be held at Masjid Besi...very impressing architecture with open air ambience, metal ceiling...too bad it was raining at dat time, so we couldnt take any picture outdoor....lil girl was among the spotlight as usual, roaming around the mosque ('baru dapat kaki la katakan'..)..
we stayed for the bride's reception held at a nearby hall...hubby was still not feeling very well dat night...stil recovering from a very bad fever, driving for 5hours++ some more....the ceremony was a bit delayed, so at 9.15pm hubby couldnt wait any longer, he was shivering, plus we needed to drive back to PJ which was 45mins away...oso lil cutie wont sit stil, exploring the whole venue, greeting people here n there....we went back without seeing the groom in tux =(...
25/12/2010, Saturday:
set out to OU to meet up wit my frens for lunch....we ended up being in Seoul Garden for 3 hours, bz catching up n filling our stomach wit the buffet...but somehow i felt dat i didnt chatted enuf with everyone as i was bz struggling to meet the need of my lil girl....she was actually sleepy but due to a lot of people being there, she cant concentrate to sleep, instead she became cranky....she's sleepy but wanted to play, roaming around....but cant go anywhere coz the place's crowded, of coz mommy wont let her go further....its oso hot in the OU, we cant feel the aircond due to the christmas crowd....she finally dozed off by herself, while i was holding her, thankfully without having to bf...everyone came wit partners except for one...catching up their latest stories, mostly known via blog/fb...some bz preparing for their wedding next yr...there'll b lots of my frens' wedding, feeling excited for them...so happy to see them, shud do dis again gals =)...
from OU we straight away went to i-city shah alam for a night of LED lights...trees built using LED, very nice panorama...taking pics was difficult due to the christmas crowd again...by dis time i felt like my legs are going to break...cant carry lil girl anymore (her weight is 10kg)...hubby's tired too...we didnt cover the whole park but tried our best...if the trees' are repeating, we juz ignored the section...all in all its a very good experience, except the entrance for a car is 10ringgit, a bit too much i think....
26/12/10, Sunday :
started the day early (went to bed straight after dinner, nasi bukhara from mamak at shah alam is the best!!), packing n filling the bath tub for lil girl's bath...unfortunately she pee'd right away after entering the tub (can see the water changes to yellow..hihihi)...need to throw the water n refill again...dis i the reason we were out quite late, had breakfast at ikea...shopped for only half an hour, need to rush coz we need to check out at 12pm...
'hahaha, sempat lg tu shopping'...bought only lil cutie's toys, follow the short cut to kid's section n straight down to the market hall downstairs...
after checking out, went to the wedding at Manjalara...nice, aircond-ed hall...catching up wit frens from Surrey dis time...juz realized dat in my A-level batch, i am the only one with a child...others stil njoying their singlehood =P...stayed for about 2 hours until the bride n groom arrived....took pictures n off we go to the next destination...my sis-in-law who stayed in Perak has been inviting us to her house n guess what, we never been to her house since lil cutie was born....watched futbal dat night, yahooo mesia beat up indon =D....as usual, upon meeting her cousins, lil girl wont go to sleep even tho she had been cranky since b4 maghrib...only at 10pm would she go to sleep....mummy is sooo exhausted....grandma did try to put her to sleep but ending up making her cousin bro jealous =P...
'abg haris pon nak tuk anim riba n usap2 kepala jugak'...
27/12/10, Monday:
after sending my in-laws off to work, we only headed out at 9.30am....had breakfast n stopped at ipoh...to survey doorgifts at KK Home Deco, english roses-style for my sis's wedding...stumbled upon the hub of pottery shops (lots of shops selling planting pots, garden accessories, landscaping stuff etc) across the street...after comparing the prices, Kedah is certainly cheaper than Perak...but there is certainly more variety of choices here...we'll certainly be back now dat we have our own garden =D...
stopped by Taiping for cendol, saw Kuala Sepetang's signboard...heard dat its famous mee udang, hubby opened his gps n in less than half an hour, we reached our destination....ordered mee special (big prawns), with a price of RM11 only per plate, we got 6-7 big2 prawns...marvellous indeed, the service was quite fast, we hv no complains against the specialty dish here....cheaper than Sg Dua in fact...arrived home safe n sound, tired but felt really satisfied wit our trip dis time, full wit wonderful activities....
on the way back, i was dreaming to organize a trip to northern Perak...going to Bukit Merah Waterpark, Zoo Taiping, Bukit Larut/Maxwell, hv delicios mee udang, cendol, seafood....wallaaa, i got the itinerary simply for 2-3 days vacation wit family =D....hubbyku sayang, jom!!
