Rant & Raves

Today is … ermmm… Prophet Muhamad’s Day (don’t ask me what it means, but it is a public holiday for Selangor state) so naturally, I am happy!!

I was planning to wake up really late to catch up and cover the loss time I had over the months for working late and stuff. Unfortunately, I had to wake up at 11:35am because my sister was calling me to go for a shopping trip with her and mom (they were already there since 10am and she SMS me at 9am about it but I was sleeping). Being a good son that I am, I went back to sleep until 12:49pm, took a quick shower, and went 140km/h to MidValley Megamall.

We walked a bit at Jaya Jusco and then, I was just waiting for them to get done. (Lesson #1: When you go for shopping trip with family, especially with kids around, make sure that deparmental store or shopping mall got plenty of couch or place to sit) I was talking to my mom about things while my sisters went crazy over certain things (its not even Sales yet. Actually, I am not sure. I wasn’t paying any attention).

And then, we went for lunch at Madam Kwan after I constantly complained about being very hungry and not taking any breakfast in the morning for 2 hours (Lesson #2: Make sure you eat before you go for shopping trip with women. They will forget about food, drink, or basic need such as toilet trip).

After food, the kid was tired. Yawning, watery eyes, and heavy limps are good indications that its time to go home or else you will be looking for troubles. So my second sister went back home to let the kid rest, whereas my eldest sister and mother were still hanging around. We went to Coffee Bean while Maria ran around looking for ice-cream to ease her sudden cravings.

We talked for hours and hours, and the scope of our conversation is very wide. It ranges from fashion to shoes, and then from houses to work, and then from kids to books.

It was a GREAT trip to the shopping mall with family, and having the opportunity to spend quality time with them. At least we enjoyed it.
