Night Walk

The boys have been fussing about staying at home all week now that they were on their second week of holidays. We planned to stay at the apartment next week, during my on call period. But this week, they had mostly been staying at home. And they were bored.

So, we decided to take them out to KLCC for a nice walk after berbuka. KLCC was crowded, mainly with shoppers planning for an early Raya bargain. The decorations at the foyer was already up, mainly stalls. But there was a main stage there as well. Nothing was playing tonight.

We then settled for a quick drink at Chinoz, while enjoying the water fountain at KLCC park. Cool weather tonight.

We plan for an early night tonight before waking up for sahur early to catch the opening ceremony of the Olympics. Looking forward to that.

Where for Dinner?

So, today's clinic was done extra early and I sorted the ward well in advance before returning home in holiday mood. Planning to take the boys out for dinner later but was not sure yet of the venue. Irfan was already jumping up and down looking forward to tomorrow. Anita had bought them some new jumpers for the trip. Hopefully the weather would be nice and crisp up the hill.

For this evening, I'd better ask the boys where they wanted to have dinner. I wouldn't mind going out to the Curve actually.

Haircut Time

It has been a good six weeks and surely a haircut were in order for the boys. The last time we went to the hair dressers, their stylist, Uncle Truno wasn't around. They had another lady doing the cutting and Irfan, and of course Puan Anita was not pleased.

We called ahead of time and today, Uncle Truno was free to do the cutting. Everyone went home happy .....

No Kino?

Puan Anita asked me to follow her shopping this evening and I duly obliged. Destination was Suria as she had to buy some stuff for the upcoming trip to Kelantan. As you know, ladies took their time while shopping and I was practically left to my own devices for almost a couple of hours. So, I spent some time at Kinokuniya.

The place was not like it used to be where one was free to browse the books. I loved looking at travel and architecture books. But all of them were covered in plastic films. Yes, you could ask the salesperson to unwrap them for you, but you'd end up with a dirty look and after a couple of unwraps, you'd soon get enough.

I finally had it after half an hour or so, and decided to look at the magazines instead. I do realise that the place was not exactly a library, but the fact that the books were all wrapped just put me off from getting interested.

Maybe I was just getting old .....

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!
