memorable weekend

Last week i had a memorable weekend. My parents came all the way to KL from KB. Though it was just a 3 days 2 nites trip, but i can see that my parents really enjoyed themselves.

They came on thursday nite & went back on sunday nite. Then on friday, my bro brought them to the new sunway pyramid. Well, actually i were suppose to be taking leave on friday & sat, but i jz couldn't afford to apply for it. My project jz started & i do not want my boss to think that i am not a responsible person (taking leave during on-going proj) :( a bit sad for me, but wat to do..luckily my parents understood. My parents didnt spend much time in pyramid. Just browsing and came bck home quite early coz we will be having dinner together in klang.

the next day, i brought them to midvalley & The Gardens after my work. I worked half day on saturdays. Wah, in midvalley, my parents shopped a lot. hehehe! my mum bought herself a leather purse from braun buffel and a white gold bracelet from diamonds&platinum, while my dad bought a POLO perfume for himself! I can see from their expressions that they really enjoyed themselves shopping! hehe...oh yah, not forgetting also, my bro suggested that we (my sis, him & i) buy for my mum perfume as her b'day gift. Her b'day falls on 25th nov (dats sunday). After getting the confirmation from my sis (i sms-ed her), finally we bought Dazzling Gold by Estee Lauder 75ml perfume for mum. Costed us RM300 (dats only RM100 per person, quite cheap!). Mum was happy and kept saying that the perfume smells good. ^_^

then on sunday, my plan was to bring them to The Pavillion in KL. But due to the news that there would be a rally in KL, so we changed plan & went to 1-Utama (new wing) instead. Before that, we went for dimsum in klang (near meru). We ordered so much that it is actually our brunch already. hihihi...We arrived 1-utama about noon time. Managed to get a nice spot for my car & went jalan-jalan from new wing to old wing. Again, my parents start to shop again. hehe... this time, my dad is the one who did most of the shopping. Bought himself some long pants & some cds (his fav band Beatles & fav singer Cliff Richard). Mum bought some dresses for Justene (my sis' daughter). Then brought them to Starbucks to have some coffee.

At the same time (killing 2 birds with 1 stone), i had a meet up with my schoolmate, TCC and her hubby in starbucks too. W (my close friend) also joined the meet up. TCC and her hubby really so 'secocok'. 'macam pinang dibelah dua' ^_^ Anyway, congratulations again to both of u! :)

We chatted for quite some time and didnt realise the time. Anyway, really appreciate TCC for giving us (W & i) souvenier. "Psst! Itz handcream from L'Occitane wor, bet itz kinda expensive." Love the lavender scent! Thanks again ya! We left about 5pm and i went to meet up my parents for dinner.

Brought them to Italiannies for dinner. Early dinner coz gotta send them off to airport by 6pm from 1-Utama. My mum loved the seafood pasta & sicilian chicken salad a lot! :) we ordered a few dishes & shared out to eat. Overall, the food and environment is good!

Finally, itz time to leave. We arrived airport about 7pm when suddenly my hp's sms alerted. An sms from Air Asia stating that my parents flight (suppose to fly at 8:20pm) is retimed to 9:45pm. my!!! if only we knew it earlier, that we wouldn't have to rush off so early from 1-Utama. -_- anyway, what to do, we jz have to wait in the airport for the next 3 hrs or so la...

anyway, my parents finally boarded the plane at 10:20pm (2nd retimed). Well, this is air asia lah, no comment. want cheap, then sometimes these retimed incidents we jz cant help it lor. bear with it then.

i arrived home almost 10pm. had a quick bath & went to bed straight...exhausted from the walking in the shopping malls but i really enjoyed myself. able to spend quality time with my parents & this is my most memorable weekend since my last trip back to KB last september.
