Pig turned shopper

I'm back! Boy am I exhausted. And gosh, where do I start?

Wednesday
Mala and I left for KL at the 8:45pm flight. My mind didn't know what to anticipate on this trip, but it definitely fulfilled the aim to get out of town. Got out of the plane by 11pm. The bus to KL Sentral was abit freaky, hearing how loud the absorbers react with any road bumps (aiyerr). Arrived KL Sentral at 12:15am. Mala's sis picked us up. She intro-ed herself as 2way. LOL, that's like, a secret mafia name or something. I don't have a secret mafia name but Pig oughta do the trick. You'd imagine a big pork belly person guarding on the secret door validating every special mafia knockings. Huhuhu...

I find 2way a funny girl just after 2 minutes of conversation. We dropped by to see 2way's pal, Yanti, switched cars, picked Mala's nephew Mikal and off we went to the pasar malam over at Taman Tun (short for Taman Tun Ismail blablabla I'm an outsider). I don't call it shopping but I started buying from there. I got meself a pair of jeans and a shirt. Wohoo...Piagster cheered for spending.

We had supper at freakin 2am and tried this new dish called kerang rebus (boiled clams). I only had one coz I was abit full. Wasn't used to anything new since I was getting sleepy. We arrived 2way's place around 3am, showered and managed to sleep at 4am. Oh yeah, I got introduced to their pet cat named Prince (or Prinze?).

Thursday
I was awakened by Mala's conversation on the phone, telling her youngest one not to cry since she's not on her side. I had the chance to go "aawww" before I dozed a little more. Then I finally got up around 7:15am (I can't believe I wake that early), got out for some hot tea Mala made and this delicious sponge-y cake I had, couldn't remember the name. And I got the chance to be-friend Prince, the Very Fat Cat. He's friendly, I only feared his claws..

Remember what happened to the Pig in Babe movie?




2way said there's another cat named Beauty but it seemed that she couldn't be found around the apartment. Hmm, Beauty and the Prince?

Anyways, we headed off to Masjid Jamek area coz Mala had to get some fabric for Raya preps. Then we had lunch at the KLCC food court, the stall with the famous Shish Kebabs. Yum...

We bumped into another of Mala's sister, Gus and was intro-ed. Hehe 2 friends already. Oops, Mikal becomes 3rd friend. After lunch, it was all shopping. It happened so fast that all I remembered buying was the eyeliner pencils that Kavukz and Char wanted me to get, some pants, a skirt, a cool shirt that I couldn't resist but to swipe my card on, and.....I don't know what else. I was tired so I met up with Mala and Mikal at Secret Recipe. Mala was getting a little freaked just seeing me with more than just ONE shopping bag. It was around 4pm that I felt like I'm not having much time left. Walked around, and I think the lack-of-sleep symptoms started acting up. I became disoriented a little, stepping on alot of feet just walking from one end to another. I stepped on one "all covered up" lady, I apologized, but I couldn't tell by her eyes whether she said "It's okay" or "You %^$#&" or simply just smiling away. Blehh....

Gus came and abducted us to Jaya Jusco. I was so happy when I saw PDI shop. The good news? It's got 50-70% off. And the shirts are so cool and reasonable that I could hump the shop to bits bought 3 shirts there. If you leave the Pig at PDI, expect her to stay there longer than YOU will ever expect.

Had dinner at Nando's. Tried the hottest peri-peri to kill myself just to see how hot it could be. Love the chicken. Love the fries. Walked around abit then came home at about 10pm. 2way was waiting for her takeaway that she slept. The poor girl.

Was sorting out my goodies when Mala wanted to see what I bought. To be honest, this "girl" thing is a new thing to me (or have I done it before, only not realizing it?). But I find it interesting, you know, checking out what people bought. LOL, it's like seeing what goodies you and your best friend bought after grocery shopping. Is that irrelevant?

I sent an sms to Yoyo telling her I might need a box to fill my goodies. I actually didn't expect alot of shopping today. Heh, I was smiling by myself.

Showered, cleaned up, was ready to go to bed when Mala came into the bedroom.

Mala : Do you want to go out and eat?
Pig : OOoo *looks at watch, 12:30am* you troublemakers....LET'S GO!

We went to this stall that served nasi bubur berlauk (I hope I got this right) but they ran out by the time we reached. We had kerang bakar which I finally got the chance to appreciate, tomyam and chicken wings instead. All that for supper! Came home at 2am and I slept with satisfaction.

Friday
Woke up around 8:20am. Got an sms from Char telling me that Mom encourages me to use my credit card. Where can you find a Paris Hilton-ey Mom like that? Oh and just so you know, I'm not carrying a supplementary card so it doesn't mean she's purely a Paris Hilton-ey Mom who's gonna pay at the end of the month. Haha...

Spent the whole day at One Utama. Went to Esprit and got meself 2 pants. I got a few other stuff then after that we settled for Chili's for dinner at 4pm. LOL, I know, too early for dinner. They serve margaritas which I was so tempted to have it but I would only waste it since I'm gonna be full with this yummylicious BBQ Ranch I ordered...



Need I say more?

I dropped by MPH bookstore to fulfill my Piggy needs and instead of getting good thought provoking fiction books which was the reason I come back to MPH, I actually stumbled across my favourite comic book I was dying to have (and forgot to put in my To-Buy list) in the Comic section. And I almost never touch the Comic sections in any bookstore. I looked at price, abit pricey, BUY anyways. For things like these, a priced possession, why think twice?

Left One Utama around 6:30, packed my bags and got 2way to send me over to Yoyo's place. And we actually didn't do much except watching the Olympics opening ceremony. Kenix wasn't feeling well so I suggested that we skip the outting. Slept around 1am I think.

Saturday
Woke up at 8am. Cleaned up, Yoyo actually see that I didn't need a box when I said I needed one. And she proved me wrong. She started rolling all my shirts and voila, my luggage fits! Yoyo my saviour!

I'm sure I could've thought of that idea of "rollin". *ego ego ego ego*

Had breakfast around Wangsa Maju area. Met Vivian, conversation was very brief coz she had to be at work. Kenix was supposed to be at work too but her boss called and told her there's a rally of 10,000 people over at HSBC area and suggested that she didn't turn up for work. Wohooo...Johnson came over and joined us for breakfast. He even offered to drive me to KL Sentral which was nice of him.

It was a bumpy flight home because there were alot of cotton candies up where I was. I hate it when the plane moves like a lorry on bumpy road. Especially when in the air.





What more can I say...I'm home! And my spendings can now appear on E! News in Forbes Top 100 Porky Splurges. Wootz!

Oh yeah, I must remember to post up something about shisha/hookah.

Du Du Du...
