Deepavali

So…. Apa aku buat masa cuti ?

I don’t remember Tuesday at all for some reason. My memory is really getting bad.

Wednesday pepagi lagi I took the kids to 1U. It was just the 3 of us on account of Kamil had to work. Kami sampai sebelum kedai bukak lagi sebab aku punya tak mau berebut parking. Hehhehe...

Ingat nak pi tengok wayang but since I haven’t been to 1U for ages, aku melilau cari TGV. Lepas baru perasan TGV belum bukak lagi, melilau pulak cari GSC. Punyalah banyak escalator aku naik just to find parking space instead. When finally jumpa dah terlepas Frankenweenie by 30 minutes.

Hampeh.

Lepas tu aku berbelanja sakan kat Zara beli baju untuk Adik and her cousins who came later with my mom and siblings. Pi makan Thai food, makan Churros, beli board game untuk Abang supaya dia tak asyik mengadap PS3 yang bapak eh baru beli (I really do not understand that purchase.. Apparently it is a guy thing so I wouldn’t understand ever !).

Malam…. Budak2 mengaji and lepas tu Kamil took us to The Curve. Ingat nak makan kat Ikea tapi punyalah ramai we went to Popeye’s instead, much to Adik’s displeasure. Adik ni sebijon aku, perut Melayu, so fast food ni macam tak kena dengan gaya. Tapi Babah got upset with her and kena marah kat situ. Sian anak aku….. Aku memang tak sampai hati tengok meleleh ayaq mata sebab makan. Aku rasa tak salah pujuk kot. Nak marah buat apa ? But what to do, aku yang pilih mamat garang bak vampire lapar to father my children…..

Semalam Kamil ajak jogging kat Lake Garden. He said he feels fat, buat aku rasa he feels I am fat jugak tu sebab tu beria benar ajak jogging kat tasik size besar. Yup, aku adalah tension hari ni…..

But alas, the heavens poured that morning so what we do was breakfast, ambik bibik baru (more later on bibik lama … kalau aku ingat lah nak cerita….), hantar budak-budak balik, attend to our toilet (and I do not mean toilette kay..) and drove to Viva Mall, the biggest mall for Homeware, or something to that effect lah.

Nasihat aku, jangan pegi sebab all 6 floors had nothing that caught our eyes. Zilch. Nada. Kosong. Rugi giler all those floor space, kay. Mengarut. Lepas tu pi Mont Kiara Solaris tapi apa pun tarak, pi Publica tapi susah nak park kereta so aku ajak Kamil pegi BSC.

Balik kami lena and siap-siap untuk pi sambut Deepavali with Kamil’s staffs. And let me tell you, we didn’t manage to get to our destination. Kami kena tipu dengan GPS. 2 kali. Lain yang kami tekan, lain yang depa tunjuk. They even managed to send us to a place that made us think of our safety, made us think if we ever gonna get out of there alive.

At one point I had to get out of the car to help Kamil do a U-Turn on a very, very narrow road. Dengan hutan belantara sebelah kiri and gaung sebelah kanan, and kegelapan yang lebih dari gelita, aku dah bayangkan episod-episod yang sungguh tak best from my favourite Criminal Minds actually happening to me. KLCC peeking magestically behind the huge trees kat belakang aku looked so surreal amidst the surrounding, wokey.

So our plan for briani and muruku was thwarted. We got kuew tiaw goreng at Uptown instead.

Bosan.
