It was Nik's Birthday

It was my husband’s birthday yesterday and we took the day off to ‘merewang’ while feeling young, kononnya. The theme of the celebration? Reminiscing the days when we were courting back in 1993 minus the snow.... ancient sungguh rasanya!

We had our breakfast at O’Brien’s early in the morning and took a slow stroll along the shops in OU and enjoyed every minute of it (at 10am in the morning, mind you, and the shops were barely opened).

Later we watched ‘Lake House’ and we were charged RM12 only for 2 tickets (the early bird tickets were so damn cheap, I almost fainted!). There were only a few couples inside and we took the opportunity to sit right at the middle (ikut suka hati), since the theater was quite empty.

How was the movie? Hmm… ok la, I would say it was the right movie for the occasion… hehe. A bit slow though, biasa la, romantic piece. The ending part was quite ‘touchy’ and yes, Mr Reeves was so stunningly handsome (oh yes, nampak tua sikit la and still got the looks). And Sandra Bullock was so drop dead gorgeous! I think they both should marry each other. I love them!

Then we had lunch at Just Thai and continued with our rounds…. Sampai penat la kaki katanya. Hmmm…. Why we went to OU??? Ntah! Because it has lots of shops… hehe… so un-romantic eh? No la, I thought it was convenient, lots of place to eat, movie theatres, shops, mega sales, walk walk, eat, eat, talk talk while shop shop….. after all, where in KL can you find romantic spots in daytime?? Nan ado! I was thinking Tugu Negara in conjunction with the upcoming National Day celebration tapi tak kuasa la nak berpanas kat situ…. Hahahah…. Feeling patriotic la pulak.

Anyway, the day was well spent, and so was the RM….. ! aiyahhh, this Mega Sale is really getting on my nerve lah, I tell u!

Zura,
I think that was just the "perfect" day out with Nik. (Happy Birthday to Nik).

Couples should do this..... taking time out from work and kids, and spend precious moments together. It's something couples owe to each other.

Glad that you did not make that stroll kat Tugu Negara. haa haa.

p/s :
I think Mr.Reeves is gay; that's why he is never really seen with a woman; and he seems to only work with Ms. Bullock and Ms. Theron.

Leilanie,
R u kidding me? He REALLY is a gay??? oh no!!!!!! Such a waste! Perhaps I should pay more attention to Mr Hartnett then! Another heart throb.... *drool*

Zetty
Yes... so cheap eh? Like 50% off gitu.... Mega Sale kot????
Leilanie said…
Yep ......... that's how cheap tickets are if you go watch the morning show.
Have done that once or twice with Emil and hubby.
Syiok. Murah giler.

absolutely true! Normally I'll catch the mid nite shows, so jarang2 sgt tgk morning shows... bukan apa, banyaknya nak kena buat kat rumah kalau weekends!

Zura, duit you bukan tercicir di jalan, that's what we call "indirect investment", no ROI required.... hehehe... pandai-2 buat teori economi sendiri. Anyway, I support the "spending time with your hubby" advise.. Hubby nowadays can be so busy that we need to slot ourselves in their calendar as well! Grrr...

Happy Belated B'day to Nik

I am busy, I'm confused!

I have been very quiet this week.. no updates, no hopping around leaving any trail of my existence, probably due to the following reasons: 1. Nasreen will be having her exam next week, so I’m busy reviewing her syllabus (and also nagging to make sure she prepares herself). Yes, instead of her reviewing her books, the responsibility – by default – is shifted to me…. Hmm, mothers nowadays. We feel the pressure more than our kids (and we panic even more while waiting for the results to come out). Hehehe. I can’t remember my mother even touched my textbooks when I was in Primary 3. No wonder we grow old faster these days…. 2. I’m having mood swings this week. One day, I feel elated, then mellow on the next day, moody on the following day. Work is adding on my desk, scope is being expanded, news is floating around and remarks are beings smacked everywhere (manage to steer clear of some and the rest sometimes just landed right on my very lap). Don’t you hate it when you are so positive that ...
Yes, I’ve been blessed with a lot of wonderful people around me….. yes friends, you! Read on…. Yesterday, around 6.15pm, I was in the middle of reviewing something when I was called for a meeting with one of big bosses here…. And I was thinking in anger, ‘Great! It’s 6.30pm and they want to have a meeting. Don’t they have families to run back home to????” So I got up from my chair and ran down to one of the meeting rooms in Level 5. I peeped through the small glass and the room was dark and empty. They were not even they yet! Heck! But when I pushed open the door, suddenly I heard people screaming and laughing and shouting, “Happy Birthday To You!!!!” and everyone was holding a candle in their hand. Gosh! My colleagues planned a Birthday Party for me. No wonder the department was empty when I left and I didn’t even notice. I was speechless! I was asked to blow the candles that they were holding and those on the cake (oh! The cake was so yummylicious!) I was so touched. Everybody was th...
