My darling is not working today and I’m on study leave. So we decided to catch 2 movies. Open Seasons and John Tucker Must Die. Open Season is boring but John Tucker Must Die is hilarious but kinda lame. In between the movies we went for lunch in Dragon I, 1Utama. I’ve always wanted to try and finally I did. And I regretted because not only that the price is expensive but the food is yucky. The only thing which I enjoyed is the ‘Siew Long Pau’. It’s really tasty and juicy. I wonder why there are so many people eating there. Every time I pass by the customer has to take number and wait for the number to be called before they are seated just like in banks.

After watching the 2nd movie, there’s Octoberfest going on at the rain forest. So we also ‘ke poh’. It turn out that they are selling German beer for only RM1 per bottle. Too bad we don’t drink but we bought German sausage which cost RM10 while enjoy some music played by some Germans.

Open Season... A boring movie.. Yawn..

Since today is still Hari Raya, but my darling is working today. So I decided to go to his work place and have lunch with him. it’s so nice to drive on a public holiday in KL. No jam at all and best of all, we can park anywhere by the road side. Hahaha…

We decided to go to Pizza Hut in KLCC for lunch. The place is newly renovated and the layout is different from the normal Pizza Hut in KL. Take a look for yourself.

I like the glass

Nice cushion and chandelier

Fried shrimp anyone?

I’m already on study leave. In the evening I followed my parents to temple for ‘9 God Festival’ somewhere near Jalan Ampang. There’s so many devotees. It’s such a huge celebration. They will pray for 9 days. This is my first time there. There’s lion dance too. Outside the temple it looks like a pasar malam and lots of vegetarian food. As we were leaving, we were stuck because the road around the temple are filled with devotees.

After leaving the temple, I smell of joss stick. We wanted to go to Eden for dinner but then it’s close due to Hari Raya. So we ended up in The Ship restaurant in Jalan Bukit Bintang.

Today is my very first Saturday off for the semester. I’ve been attending classes every weekend for the past 4 months. I’m gonna make full use of my one and only Saturday off. Since today is Deepavali, I went to my step aunt house in Rawang to celebrate deepavali. Well, my aunt is a Chinese but married an Indian. So she celebrates deepavali. Just went there to pay her a visit and her new born baby girl. Stayed for lunch before leaving.

From Rawang I came back home to drop off my younger brother because my parents are going to Genting. When they left, my darling came to my house. We went to one of his colleague’s house for Deepavali in Wangsa Maju. Stayed for dinner at her house. From there we moved on to another of my darling’s colleague house in Cheras. Well, this is my first time meeting them but I still had a great time.

I could practically wake up this morning. But I know that I have to. I force myself to wake up at 7am. Which means I only slept for like 4 hours. OMG. Class is from 8am till 5pm. after class, I went to pick up my dad in Subang. My dad wants to go to Mydin to get a Hari Raya hamper for MPSJ. He was hoping that by giving hamper to them they will not disturb my dad’s shop. It turn out that Mydin has already close hamper orders. So we decided to walk across to Giant, USJ. It turns out that the hamper in Giant ain’t that nice. So I suggest to go to Careffour, Subang.

Before going to Careffour, we went for dinner nearby. And my dad took us to a factory for dinner. Yes. We ate in a factory. The factory is converted into a restaurant. It’s kinda deep into the industrial area and yet so many customers are able to find that place. This is amazing. The food ain’t that really nice tho. Hmmm… I guess this is luck.

Finally in Careffour, Subang, my dad likes the hamper. It takes him hours to choose the hamper. I’m already half dead due to lack of sleep yet he’s taking his own sweet time. Well, that’s my dad. He wants the best of everything. So I just sat at the bench and practically fell asleep. Hahaha…

Finally around 11pm I reached home. I was browsing to the Digi website and guess what? I saw my name in the website. I’m so happy. I finally won grand prize. And the grand prize was a Samsung YP-U2X 512MB MP3 player. I’m jumping for joy. Finally I’ve won a grand prize in my life. I can’t wait for the prize to arrive.

Grand Prize winner. Yahoo!!!!

Samsung MP3 is mine. Muahahaha

My mum is still in Indonesia and my Grandma is not feeling well in nursing home. The nurse called me in the middle of the night and told me that her condition is not too good. So I rush to the nursing home to pay a visit. True enough that she don’t look too good. She cannot recognize who am I and she look week. I don’t know what to do. The nurses ask me to decide whether I want to put her in the hospital or not. I have no idea what to do. I cannot contact my mum at all because in Indonesia there is no line because she is in a plantation.
After looking at her suffering, I decided to admit her into hospital which is the best thing to do. At least there’s nurses and doctors in the hospital to monitor her conditions. So the nursing home nurses help me to call an ambulance to Hospital Malaya. We are all so kelam-kabut because I don’t know where my mum put my grandma’s hospital card. Luckily I brought my little bro along. He was in the ambulance with my grandma and I drove there.

We reached the hospital at 10pm. They put her in the emergency ward for check up. We were practically at the emergency ward for like 4 hours before she is being push to the rooms. All we did was waited and waited. God knows what are we waiting for. At 12am, I went and ask the nurse there what are we waiting for. She says “Oh, tunggu doctor datang”. So I ask “Pukul berapa doctor dating?”. She replied, “Pukul berapa you dating?”. And I said, “Pukul 10pm”. She finally replied “Oh, baru datang. Tunggu sekejap la. Baru 2 jam lepas”. I was so frustrated. You mean I’ve been waiting like a fool for 2 hours and all you can say is its only 2 hours? You mean you expect me to wait for hours before pushing her into the ward? The nurses and doctors there practically chatting away and taking their own sweet time.

I’m really really frustrated. And I got a feeling that the doctor doesn’t like me. I don’t give a damn. I’m really very tired already. And furthermore I have class at 8am tomorrow morning. Sigh… I finally went to bed at 3am.

I took leave today to visit my grandma. From the nursing home, I went for lunch with darling in KLCC. Later at night, I went and pick up my dad from Subang and we went for dinner together with my little bro. my mum is still in Indonesia. This time dad decided to take us to Tai Thong, Imperial China for dinner. We eat till so full. The food not bad at all. I like the setting of the hall. Very imperial-ish. Hahaha…

My mum went to Indonesia for work purpose last Thursday and she will only be back on 16 October. So after class I picked up my lil bro from Kelana Jaya Station and pick my dad up and all 3 of us went for dinner together. My dad took us to TGI Fridays in Subang Parade. It has been years since I step into TGI Fridays.

We reach there around 8:30pm and we have to wait for about 20 minutes before we are being seated. So my dad and my lil bro decided to walk around Subang Parade while I went to Celebrity Fitness gym to have a quick bath. So happen Jacklyn Victor (the winner of 1st Malaysian Idol) was there. I miss her performance but I manage to catch a glimpse of her when she’s giving out autograph. She looks so cute in her black outfit.

We ordered two 3 course meal in TGI. The appetizer itself is so filling that I could hardly finish the main course meal. After main course meal then comes yummy dessert. But then the dessert come, we are all so full. It’s such a waste that we didn’t manage to finish the food we ordered. But the food is delicious. Way better than Chilies Restaurant.

Ohh... I love this putu piring. It's so hard to find

I went to my client place in Shah Alam as usual. After lunch I have meeting with client in Megan Phileo Avenue. It’s so far from Shah Alam to KL. Suppose to have meeting at 3pm but I reach there at 4pm. Luckily there’s no jam. If not I think I’ll reach there even later.

The meeting was a short one. I left Megan Avenue at 5pm. then I drop off my manager back to office and I head off to Mid Valley to meet up with my darling and his colleague for dinner. Suppose to meet at 7.30pm but most of them came at 8.30pm. Sigh… they are not punctual.

Anyway, we had dinner in Kiku Zakura. This is my first time eating there. There are so many choices to choose from. I have a hard time choosing what to eat. Well, here are some of the food we ate. The price is of course pricey. Each person cost about RM25.

Ohh.. I love this cup
