LOVE never make sense...

On my birthday, Fazly got me a CD... never heard of Marie Digby but the songs, "Say It Again" and "Umbrella" are no stranger to me.

After opening the wrapper, the first thing came into my mind was "Anna Sui". Kekeke... really love it. Not the songs to begin with... but the appearance of the CD; from the cover to the lyrics-booklet... just love it!

I've been listening to the CD since it's gifted to me... everyday on my way to work and on my way back from work. Somehow, some of her songs make me wanna pick up my "skirt" and dance along the beat. Even was humming the tunes at work in the mornings... I won't go on and on about it... lyrics wise... too much to describe in one word.

Loving some thing...
Loving some one...
Will NEVER make sense to others...
Or ourselves...
Does not need to...

**It's not her lyric, it's my own thoughts & feelings.

2 Missions : Tulips & Hutong 10

On 21st April 2011, I received KLM's newsletter about their Charity Tulip Sale 2011 so I was excited because it's not only a chance to see tulips in Malaysia but at the same time, you get to do charity by buying them for Mother's Day too! With excitement, I got Yen Lin and Sharon Toh to join me. They both agreed delightfully too!

Since, it's at Sg.Wang, I was even more excited because I told myself, "Finally.... I get to go check out Lot 10 Hutong that YTL is promoting endlessly in magazines and whatever media..."

As I was lazy to drive up to KL, I've decided to drive to Klang KTM station with Yen Lin and parked there and we catch the train up to KL Sentral and followed by Monorail to Bukit Bintang. We started our journey at about 10.15am and by the time we reach Sg. Wang is around 11.45am. Well, you can predict the delays causes by KTM train interval of 30minutes each but we were lucky, we do not have to wait too long; just merely 10 minutes.

Upon reaching Sg. Wang, was I in disappointment to find out the size of the tulips when we looked from the upper floor down to Concourse area and the long queue... So, Yen Lin and I decided that we won't wanna waste our day in long queue and Yen Lin said, "I'm sure I'll get a chance to see good tulips in Netherland one day." With the positive mind-set, we left the concourse and hunt for food and we ended up at McD. After brunch, we passed by the concourse area again and by chance, I took a picture with the two person dressed in Netherland costume. I won't know what nationality they are as they probably are just young models.


Sharon supposed to meet us at around 2pm so, Yen Lin and I went to Vincci &
UniQlo at Fahrenheit88 first while we wait for her. I bought myself a sunglasses which later, I found out that the shade wasn't very protective of the sun. It's 50/50 of fashion & shade. Kekeke... but, its ok. I didn't get anything from UniQlo because the Care-Bears & One-Piece collection are not out yet.

Met up Sharon shortly after 2pm at Lot 10 and we find our way to Hutong 10... my first impression, "This is Hutong 10?... ohh... ceehh..." Describes as "gourmet heritage food village", so we looked around before deciding on what to eat. Everything seems tempting by it's name. But, I settled for "popiah" at the price of RM6.96 for 2 rolls. In conclusion, nothing to boast about the food. We sat here chit-chatting for a fair bit before we decided to go back to Uniqlo as Yen Lin wanna get the sandals she saw earlier.



We walked around the whole Fahrenheit88 since we are already there rather than later, being called as "tortoise under the shell", nothing much interest us and we just browse thru each shop without going in any. After that, we went to Pavillion as well just to browse thru and settled down at Old-Town Kopitiam to have a drink. I was feeling hungry already so I ordered myself my early-dinner of minced-chicken rice. Too spicy and thank God, I ordered Iced-Chocolate drink.

We finally left Bukit Bintang at around 7.15pm and we spend a long time waiting for train and we missed 1 by 3 minutes. Reached Klang around 9.30pm and the whole trip on Monorail & KTM, we had to stand. It was at Shah Alam stop that I finally get to rest my feet *phew*. Reached home close 10pm after dropping off Sharon & Yen Lin.

Tired but yet fun! It's been a long time I've not done this girlie-outing... ;)

Goat Nan: Pricey & Yucky

On Saturday, mom said the lady that sells the goat's milk at the market didn't come. Must be the long weekends, she went away somewhere...

Last night, we were at 1 Mont Kiara Mall for dinner and before dinner is served, Mom went walking around with Aunty Anne with the kids in order that they will not be reckless when they sit down over dinner too long. When Mom got back, she said she was at Jaya Grocery and she couldn't find any goat's milk on the shelves. Hehehe... she really wants me to continue with the goat's milk intake every single morning.

So, after dinner, I went roaming around and since they decided to go back to Jaya Grocery with my Dad and the rest of the male in the family. I went to look for the goat's milk too. Some little voice in my brains somehow wanted me go "hunting" for it too... not hoping that my Mom was wrong but was hoping I could get another brand to try and it could be cheaper. *grinz* To my amazed, I found it on the non-chiller shelf and its priced at Rm6.99!!! But, it's 240ml. Grab 4 bottles and walked my way out to the casher to pay. First glance, you probably think the product is from Taiwan or Korea but no... it's Buatan Malaysia!

This morning, with an open-mind, after taking my sweet-time to peel the paper-seal. I drank the first mouth. Yuccccckkkkkyyyy.... REGRET big time to purchase 4 bottles 1 short! Ahhhh... so, I'm telling myself... I'm gonna have to tortore myself for the next 3 days with the leftovers. Somehow, this brand is kind of dilluted and that makes me screech my face "eeewwhhh" with the odd taste to it. The only good thing about it will be the glass bottle that I can recycle by growing guppies inside. Kakaka!!
