Curious Case of ... ?

There is a curious sight I found during lunch break earlier. After aimless wandering at Sogo, I decided to take the lift down to the supermarket area.

Getting into the lift I am slightly befuddled at the sight of a very smartly dressed lady in a kebaya asking us (in rather bad English) if we would like to go to "Ground" level. I mumbled something incomprehensible back. Never mind that she was speaking English badly, because even if she speak perfect Queen's English I would still fumbles my word. She was dressed to the 9 as if there is an annual dinner ongoing, complete with heavy makeup, overdone hair and an overpowering smell of perfume that threatened to mortally harm you if you stay in her vicinity too long. She's wearing a Sogo name tag and I wondered if she is a very helpful employee here.

I am even more curious to find out that her job is obviously the lift itself as before the lift door closes she stepped out for a while and somewhat wailed "Going down!" (okay, she 'said'... but it sounded more like wailing, honestly) and came back in the lift. Looking down, I am surprised to find that her demure kain kebaya had quite a long slit up to the higher part of the thigh, almost reaching the pelvic area. This slit is not the peekaboo type where you can see a glimpse of a thigh when a woman walk, type of slit. It is more of a gash long slit snaking up to show a half a thigh even when a woman just stand around slit. She's wearing a black silk stockings at least. Hmmmm.

At last I reached my floor and can scurries out before I ogled her some more. I think all the people in the lift are visibly relieved to get out of the overly perfumed elevator. At least she seems pretty cool enough just stared at the spot above my head when the people in the lift including moi are gawking at her. I can't help it ok.

Oh, on Saturday I finally got a book that I had been hunting for quite a while but it went suspiciously MIA in all the bookstores I think to look at.

It was this book.


Noticed the book about a year or 2 back at Kino when I considered to buy it but bought the Memory Keeper's Daughter instead. Kekonon nak baca deep stuffs. Bah! Depressing stuff it turned out to be. Which is why now I am staying the hell away from Jodi Picoult.

Anyway back to the book, from the synopsis it sounds like Indiana Jones meet Dan Brown. Hmmm. Not to mention I have an unhealthy obsession with the 7 Ancient Wonder of the Worlds. So I decided around this year, I will buy the book. But alas, I couldn't find it. Too annoying.

Imagine my delight when I found the book during my daily browse on online book shopping. At RM24. Saving myself around RM8 if bought at its retail price. Kewlness! Happy! Had I read it yet? No. My husband is currently engrossed in the book. Quite a curious sight actually. I never see him pick up a book (that don't involve photography or boring things such as engineering or study stuffs) before.

"Is it any good?" I asked him excitedly.

"Bolehlah". He answered nonchalantly. Gah!

CNY trips like many other before me

So, I had finally made it to Cameron Highlands after 17 years last I had step there. Nothing to say much here because I am sure many of you had gone there and know your way and experience more than me. As I make the trip , reached there morning and going back late afternoon. Before even reaching Cameron I needed to make scenic stops to go to the restrooms.  Above picture 1: Ridiculously 3 cute same colored cats whom were mewing quite loudly and is just so cute I wish I can adopt them all. Above picture 2: A lovely sungai that make me wish I can dip in tapi tak sempat sebab nak gi Cameron.  Above picture 3: A ridiculously lovely view from my toilet stall. I doubt there is a more scenic views in a toilet stall anywhere else.  We reached Cameron at 10 am, after departing from KL close to 6 am. Massive jam ok. Memula rase nak patah balik je. Tayar bas tercabut, jam. Kete rusak, jam. Kete kena saman polis, jam. So we didn't make it in time to my husband's favorite br...

New arrival

I have delivered a healthy baby boy! Currently am dealing with all the new stuffs associated with new mother, breastfeeding woes, sleepless night, murderous tendencies at 3am towards little one. So a bit late in updating. In short, I gave birth to this little bundle of cuteness at 5.37pm on the 3rd of August 2012 on my 38th weeks. Unexpected ( somewhat ) delivery ni, as I have to be induced and later gave birth to him via c-section. EDD 14th Aug, and sepatutnye also I was suppose to be induce today instead last week, tapi mende nak jadi. As long as semua selamat. Anyhow will update more later. In cat news, Bobby kena stay at the vet due to lung infection. :( Sedihhh. Hope he gets better soon. Tak tahu how it happened, but it does and hope kucing lain tak kena.
