mama hehe...candid...


yahuu...makanan dah sampai...

excited tunggu performance khas...

atuk...ready to blow the candle...

they were singing Allah selamatkan kamu version...specially for atuk...



bora asmara...tats the place where 3/4 of our family members will be gathered to celebrate atuk's 85th birthday. actually atuk is the one who planned for this makan2 since he lurves the big gathering :) 1st venue suggested wuz restoran puteri at ttdi...but on the same nite of 4th july there will be a wedding a reception so the place wuz closed for public. the next choice wuz bora asmara at sg penchala. well we chose a restaurant nearby tat area coz will be more convenient for all of us.


bora asmara...we managed to booked tat place to celebrate atuk's bday. it wuz my 1st time going to bora asmara. heard of it so many times but still have not yet step a foot there. 1st impression...it wuz a really romantic place...suitable with the name :) we managed to get a small hall tat can fit almost 50 ppl inside the hall. it wuz really nice cute hall coz the wall made of glass so even we sit inside but still we can view the nice scenary outside.


the makan2 start at 8pm. its not only makan2 but its also a time to share stories with other relatives. i had a chicken chop :) still mum insist me to eat nasi with lauk a bit...she afraid all the lauk will be wasted coz there's still a lot on the table...btw she makes me ate tat nasi + lauk coz the way she describes all the lauks taste make me can't resist the temptations to taste it hahaha...anyway nothing to lose coz the lauks wuz great except tat i hv a chance to put on weight :)


after everyone had dinner...then the hall door wuz open...there is a waiter at the door holding the birthday cake and from behind there is an acustic band singing a birthday song. i wish i can have a similar party like tis ealier....can't wait until age of 85 haha. they sang a bday song and after tat atuk wuz blowing the candle. wah so sporting hehehe the band did sing a few songs and the entertainment wuz f.o.c besides they did the performance inside the hall only for our family members.

anyway...a nite a bora asmara wuz fun! get together, the entertainment...its all suitable for all age. m happy to be part of the family...and wuz planning to have a bday party at tat place may be next yr...so m looking for sponsor...anyone would like to sponsor my bday party??? hahaha in my dreams :P

shopping kerezee @ kb...

my mom youngest sister is a lawyer...she had a court case at KB last month. since she dont have a company for this trip...she had invited me and a cousin to join...we just need to pay for food and transportation coz she's going to sponsor for the accomodation :)


since she's also one of the biggest license for me to get a permission from my mom...without thinking further i hv agreed to follow her for the work trip a.k.a shopping trip hehe i haven't been to KB for almost 10 yrs i guess...ya it's a very long time ago. last time i went there to visit my sis at mrsm pengkalan chepa, kb. so we going to be there for 3 days 2 nites (sat-mon).


actually my aunty's court case have been postponed and she have been informed a week before our trip....so we still stick to the plan since we have purchased our flight ticket.


the day we arrived...we did recce the town...the nite town pasar malam...not so crowded but the thing they offered wuz not bad. i have spend few hundred tat nite just purchased the brand new pattern of embroidery tudung...look like a sommerset bay pattern :) tired of bargain...the best amount we can get is rm40 per tudung. tats the cheapest coz the next day i found out tat kind of tudung can hit rm200 per piece. expensive because of the handmade embroidery wuz so smooth and the pattern for each tudung are different. you can't find 2 identical tudung like tat...trust me...tats why it wuz so expensive. anyway, i bought few tudung and some of it i'm going to sell at mark-up price...at least can cover partly of my expenses...i have over spend anyway hahaha....


3 days there...is a days of shopping. even the weather wuz terribly hot...but it wont stop us to shopped till drop hahaha we also went to rantau panjang...the shopping place wuz like shopping in the oven...it wuz extremely hot...so we just manage to be there around 1hr...really can't take the heat...

the food...well i'm not relly into it. too heavy for breakfast...all nasi berlauk with heavy santan gravy...can easily putting on weight if taken everyday :) but their food wuz cheap...lunch for 4 person at 1 of the restaurant just cost rm20...we took heavy lauk actually but still not really cost a lot...or are they calculate it wrongly? hahaha dont think so...

anyway...the trip wuz great. if going there my bag is only 5 kg but going back it increase to 11 kg...hardly to zip the bag :) i might plan to go there again within tis yr...but need to bring lots of cash tis time...as if i do hv lots of it hahaha it was great, esp shopping for tudung and batik...it is really worth plus there so many choices until we cant take it anymore...hahaha
it wuz really a kereeezee shopping trip to kb...now m broke! :)




time to go...




i love window sitting area...


aunty, cousin & me

still shopping on the last day...

time to go home...
