And It's the School Holidays!

What's cool is that most of my kids are from the kindergartens, so if school's out, so is swimming!! (applicable on weekdays only)

KL first. I went to Ikea sale, also quickly got my hair trimmed and pampered at my regular stylist at Curve (since there was no swimming for 4 days straight). Finished Yate's 'Revolutionary Road' in surprising 3 days. Also got to complete certain important sub-chapters of my dissertation. And not forgetting Alan brought my parents to buy a new sophisticated sewing machine. Win-win situation for all.

In Ipoh. The last time I came back was CNY in January. I ate 3 char kuay teows from 3 different areas in Ipoh for 3 days, and I highly recommend the char-kuay teow @ Hollywood hawker corner lot at Canning Gardens (it has always been well known though), but their drinks service has always sucked big time there. Only when I was about to finish my noodles, the drinks came. As usual, no other significant doings in Ipoh.

Holy-moly stuffs I did this week:

1. Holy-moly-ly bought a new swim-suit when I have tonnes at home. Not quite a swim-suit but a more like a long-sleeve swim top.

2. Accidentally found my old authentic CK skirt-jeans which cost close to RM400 and planned to modify/alter it (MYSELF!) though Miracle Man's help may be needed.



3. First time travelling back to KL from Ipoh by KTM train. Watched 'Fun with Dick and Jane' on board on their wide screen Samsung LCD. KTM! Wooots! Woots!


4. Went to the 3K Hotel, Sunway for bargains of clothes and accessories! Bought 2 clinchers and a dress in all less than RM100. Actually, they were all online boutiques coming out to show off their stuffs beyond the virtual world. Spotted my fav. online shops - Attire's Attic and Chocolate Buttons - and got to touch their barangs for the first time.
The dress I bought from the bazaar. Surprisingly, it's a yellow piece.

5. Went to Genting Highlands with Alan and Eddy with Eddy's new & (over-modified) Honda Civic. With body kit, spoiler and 17-inch sportrim and what not, he ran thrU' 6 corners at 100 km/h. I cursed him the whole way up but alas kissed him for winning RM50 for me on the roulette which is good enough for a kiasu (and kiasi) like me.

Genting - 21 March 09, 2am

6. I found a broken-english notice board in Genting. It screams CHINA for a renown company like Baskins.

I actually did say well-done to myself for this week.

Actually "for the consume of" seems like a wrong but acceptable phrase (if you google hard enough, you'll find many examples), but I do prefer consumption :)

Oh, really? Hey, thanks KLaw. Didn't know that.

But ya, I also prefer "consumption" as "for the consume of" sounds very China-sy.
