Errands Day on 1-AL

Productive day running errands since morning. Hangkut barang and the kids pergi transit. They were sooo not looking fwd to go to school 😂 zafeer complained cuti tak cukup, naqeeb pulak stress nak bersiap pakai uniform from transit. He hates the tie part especially and then the thought of walking from gate bawah to secschool naik bukit. 

Then pergi school koperasi to buy badges. Replacing the earlier ones that i bought but somehow missing dalam rumah when i distracted cari sewing kit. Alang2 kat situ beli skali baju PJ since dorang kene pakai berderet hari and rezeki ada size S for qeeb. I bought another tie because nk try cari tempat to make it instant. Too bad today x dpt park dalam so i had to menapak back and forth ke parking luar kat pak guard

Next stop was nearby book shop to beli book wrapper. Dah parked and bayar parking semua, masuk kedai just to find out book wrapper abes! Terpaksa skip and went to the next pit stop.

Dropped by j&t to courier back baju melayu qeeb that i bought online. Telebih besar so i had to return it. Bila dah wassep the seller yang i just posted it, baru lah nk bagi instructions step by step yang i have to write a note, letak duit return postage etc. adoii time memula i tanya hari tuh just jawab boleh tukar je. But that one eventually sorted. 

Then i went to lotus dengan harapan tailor booth situ can do it quickly. I was not keen to go there bcause last time the bangla was super kerek with me. But today im not sure whether it’s the same person but he was ok. Dah explained2 Zafeer punyer badge and nametag nak tampal mana baru prasan Qeeb nyer bag still dalam keta. Jalan laju2 gi amik and back to the tailor booth. He said come back in 1 hour. So i had no choice to shop at Lotus. I was planning to buat later because takot meat rosak or anything. But gotta use the time wisely. 

So after about 40mins i managed to grab some frozen stuff, sauces, toiletries and such. Believe it or not, book wrapper here in Lotus also sold out. I had to pay RM1.50 for 3 plastic bags because i didn’t bring shopping bag. I had to give up my lemon and banana because i forgot to weigh it…cis! Singgah MrDIY pulak to cari book wrapper and yang tinggal only the roll ones! Goshhh seksa nyer nak kene balut satu2 nanti so time consuming :( Then mengangkut lah all the heavy bags and singgah tailor booth to collect the uniforms. Glad that it was ready and paid rm16. Next to it ada empire sushi, so i bought inari lobster nak alas perot. Dah hungreh!

I striked out couple of items in my list so now i can straightaway to setia alam. 30mins away :( but gotta cari jugak baju raya i just want to settle it before bulan puasa. At umbik*ds i was the only customer so it was kinda awkward. Went to the second floor where the latest collection is. Dah tried 2 sizes and matchy2 with the skirt, but the love feeling time pakai tak ada because of the material and big print tak sesuai with my body size. Then turun balik first floor and tgk old collection and found one top that i liked. Not meeting the main objective but grab jelah untuk pakai gi office. 

I can’t resist to singgah Pokoks pulak since it’s just nearby. Eventho i’m supposed to leave the area in 15minutes. I spent about 30mins at Pokoks trying out few baju…same feeling. No love :( Haihh gotta lose a lot of weight bebeh! Weather dah panas and i was really thirsty. So singgah Zus for a cup of coffee. 

Driving back took 32minutes because i took a wrong turn and waze recalculate jalan tah mana2. Sigh. Tak jadik nak wash my car because i’m feeling tired and dehydrated. Straight to home and hangkut barang, unpack etc. Home sweet home. 

Hope Qeeb and Zafeer managing well on their first day of school today. 

Gift Hunt

Went to couple of places to find some pressies for Qeeb to give to his school friends. For boys specifically. Yang murah and nice. First i went to Kaison…macam2 benda tingin nak beli but not necessary. Got banyak options for bluetooth earbuds but semuanyer sesuai for girls. 

  

  

  

Then went to Noko Bukit Jelutong. After seems like forever, i decided to buy the black tumbler and few others stuff yang tak related and probably unnecessary at that point of time. Bought some balloons too for photo props but takde huruf A. So bought extra alphabet I for manual hack to form A. 

    

Treated myself a coffee after that. Me-time sambil termenung tengok resit. Tengok list of items yang i shouldn’t buy hak hak…rather too late :P

Bawak balik tumbler tuh jer Qeeb punyer expression dah cukup dahhh that he’s reluctant to give it to his friends. Apparently because of the cursive font. I showed to Jeeb to get some buy-in but dia gelak jer like no-wonderlah-qeeb-tak-suka kind of gelak. Mencikkkk! So tak dapat lah i nak balut2 malam tuh, sib baik ada lagik 1 hari for me to carik lain. Geram slagik tak settle. So i went to Noko Bangsar pulak to find notebook instead. Tengok2 gak tumbler design lain kot boleh exchange but yang ada pon semua cam too kiddy-type. Yang chevron design pon tak cukup. 

  

  

So to be safe, i bought notebook jelah. Dah berkenan this design tak cukup quantity pulak geram sungguhso terpaksa beli half2. 

Cute lah this ceramic cup. But takot gak nak pakai cheap ceramic for food/drink.  

  

Finalleh Qeeb approved and i can wrap up everything. Some pens, mechanical pencil and notebook for the boys! 

Morning @ KSA

Zafeer been wanting to go to hotel or swimming pool. So the nearest is the KSA, well technically the condo but i’m not comfortable there. So to the KSA we go. They now have breakfast station senang tayah order from coffee house. I can eat comfortably here while watching Zafeer main air. 

  

The roti canai sedap and big portion too. 

Lovely weather with clear blue sky. Anyways they don’t provide towel anymore. Luckily i brought one just in case but yang lawaknyer tak bawak Zafeer’s spentot. 

 

Zafeer saw the roti canai and can’t resist to stop and makan first. Pastuh continue main air sampai i got bored waiting (obviously me, tak mungkin Zafeer yang bored).

Lunch @ Papa Rich, Nexus

Walked over to Nexus cari makan. Nak pergi Thai but it was full so we went to Papa Rich instead. 

Had soupy noodle and roti bakar. Talked about the changes that currently going on and the least we could do was motivate each other. 

GLC Day Out in Shah Alam

Yee Sang and Lunch

It’s an annual thingy for us to lou sang together even though none of us are chinese. Because we love yee sang…dahler setahun sekali jer dapat makan kan. So we always try to make a point to meet up during CNY period. Since most of us work in KL so FT day paling sesuai to jumpa but too bad tak cukup korum. This year we chose Kenanga at KSA instead of the usual MinMax. Before jumpe dorang tuh i had to singgah klinik Anggerik jap to check what’s wrong with my nose yang tengah perit with bloody boogers. Then K.Fara & Shara yang jumpe earlier kat Kluang Rail Coffee parked near my house and we went to KSA together. Ordered food siap2 while waiting for Dani and Mas to arrive.

  

  

[Left] The dim sum are hereeeeee. [Right] I printed this template where you need to draw what you’re feeling grateful which the ladies mostly wrote instead. Even adult pon tak baca soklan properly, lol!

Our lunch spread in colours!

We tossed yee sang and we officiated new GLC book too! The old one dah lebih 2 years tak abes2! This year let’s target to write more (wpon stickers lagik banyak dari text)

 

Bergambar depan Kenanga restaurant as kenangan

We went for solat zuhur siap2 so that tak terkejar2 and snapped some photos outside. Lovely blue skies but susah nak bukak mata!

  

I left my car kejap to naik keta baru MDM Mas to go to Aeon for our karoks session. The gear cam swarovski crystal gituh and we love sunroof!

Karaoke!

Moving on to our 3rd itinerary of the day which was Karaoke. Usually i won’t sing but with these bunch i sing! Hahahaha slumber laidat with my croaking like a frog voice. We had fun singing groupies/ duet song like Feminin, KRU, BSB and aper tah lagik. Yang lawaknyer konon nak fefeeling girl band synchronised moves but terkena scam dua kali ngan lagu Feminin bila semua beria dah tarik chorus.

     

From here Shara and Dani nak made a move balik rumah before traffic orang balik kerja starts. Shara naik Grab sian dia stucked jugak in the traffic because tak banyak driver nak accept the ride. Yang tinggal Mas, K.Fara and myself agreed to teruskan itinerary yang terakhir which was pergi mengopi. We literally parked kat Aeon tingkat atas, masuk karaoke which is on the same floor then kluar balik terus masuk keta. Amik my car kat KSA and i had to singgah Klinik sat to collect my ubat spray yang baru sampai while Mas and K.Fara straight pergi Kopi Pokok. 

Mengopi

Sampai jer sini tengok Mas and K.Fara tengah layan makan nasik lemak! Amboihhh sedap pulak nampak dengan cuaca cam nak ujan sejuk2 gituh. Adik cashier tuh pulak ramah promote yang nasik lemak baru sampai so panas2 lagik. Sis memang lemah and cannot resist maka nasi lemak telur satu and coffee kaw kurang manis satu. Tapau juga some donut and vietnamese roll untuk bawak balik. 

Love lah the surroundings here. Most prolly the cool weather siap angin sepoi2 plus the song playlist yang berkumandang time tuh add on the mood. Bak kata budak2 skang “healing” gituh. Then it’s almost 5.30pm sis dah terlajak time terpaksa hangkut kak fara skali amik Qeeb kat transit so that i can be on time to reach at home before Zafeer sampai from school. Tak spasal k.Fara yang lambat balik padahal she also needs to pickup her kids too! I felt so bad nasib kak fara chill ajer and glad her husband boleh tolong sort out.

       

Thanks guys for the meetup and menyantuni shah alam hahaha!
