Monday!

After suffering from lack of sleep - well, I woke up for the second half of the Man United Spurs game last night after sleeping with Irfan - I headed out to work knowing that I had some personal stuff to sort out in the morning. After sorting out my morning rounds, it was time to head to the apartment.

Reporting the problem with the heater in the flat was simple enough, but I had clinic later in the afternoon, so I had to arrange for the supervisor to visit the unit on Wednesday morning. Next, I headed out to the bank, and now am having lunch at Bangsar Village. Alone.

Anita has a full morning of things to sort out before our trip out to Kota Bharu on Thursday.

Didn't Make The Cut

We were rather disappointed today. The boys needed a haircut with the trip to Kota Bharu just around the corner. Anita called our friend who is their usual stylist - it was Anita's actually but he does the cutting for my boys as well - but he was on his day off.

Since there were hardly any other time, we headed out to the salon anyway. Instead of the regular stylist, we got a lady to cut the boys' hair. And boy, did we wish we'd come on another day.

It was too short on the sides and Irfan was traumatised with the machine that she used. By the end, he started crying - he never did this before. As for Idlan, he ended up with a bald patch on his left temple. And with a wedding and the Aqiqah next week .......... Let's just say that Anita was livid!

Adidas It Was

The Malays called this "langkah kanan", which literally translated to "right foot forward". What it meant was an unexpected luck.

I planned to get myself some gear for the gym early and ended up looking for them at Pavilion. While walking around, I came across a promotion right at the main walkway. Adidas was apparently promoting their new line of sneakers and was giving away vouchers, valid only for the day.

So, I might as well use those vouchers then .... RM 80 off my gears ...

I'm Back

It has been a good few days since I updated my blog. I was all down to work. And plenty of it. Being on call a couple of times in one week does take its toll, and I was really looking forward to the weekend.

Anita and the boys were in Port Dickson earlier today, enjoying the beach. I was left behind, and took the time to settle some bills and had some me time at Bukit Bintang.

Nothing much to see at Low Yat since all the new products - the new line of Samsung phones and the new Canon dSLR, the 5D mark III and 1D X - had only just been announced. It would be at least another couple of months before they were available. And that's not to mention the iPad 3 announcement due next week. Looking forward to that.

So, I was content at exploring Pavilion. Got myself a brand new pair of trainers for the gym. Gonna start going there soon. Need to shed some weight ....

Hollywood and Exit

Finally we reached the exit. But before we left, we stopped for tea at one of the cafe there with a big sign saying HALAL up front. Time for some sandwich. And proper meat!

While we were waiting, the park characters started to file in. Marilyn Monroe. Some Elvira-type character - which turned out to be a man in drag. And finally, KUNG FU PANDA!

We got to meet, or at least, I got to meet Kungfu Panda. Awesome!There were plenty of food hereAnd, the drag queen entered the scene.Of course I got my photos taken - with the panda not Marilyn as the queue was too long. We were also entertained by a Beach Boy type sing-a-long at one of the stage.

More shopsAnd, of course, the Walk of FameMore shopping and chilling. Before we knew it, the boys were already tired. We finally made our way to the taxi stand just before 5. Just enough time to avoid the evening traffic ......

Right outside, there was still time for more photos though. A nice day out indeed.
