the final escape

the week before: 'oh please let the week passed by quickly'. nothing was nice. emo-ey & burst for the countless-time. everybody else was busy with their life so dont have a place to turn to either. thus decided to bring mama to penang as she has been missing her hometown for a while.. as for me, i need to go somewhere far away for a while. iyee, jauh sgt lee penang tuu.

just before we depart a registered letter arrived telling me to go to the induction programme on the 5th! uurgghh! just what i need~!

(it's ok.. i KIV-ed that matter until we returned. this would be my final escapade)

wahh for the 1st time i was the one and only driver! wahh anak papa dah besar! dah pandai merayap jauh2! tengok lee sape mamanyee, ngee~ papa cant come along as the kids needs his 'attention'. ah they never can survive without tiptop care *rolling eyes*. but in saying that, papa said that he could relax2 at home alone. cehcehh nak escape jugak kee, from a different situation =p

so we finally depart at 2ish pm (initial plan - 11am hihii ) and arrived at 6ish. this is my 1st time meeting Makcik - my new auntie! My uncle (Abah) got married again after the lost of his wife last year. Aww they are such adorable couple! both are in their 50s (or early 60s?), however called each other Ayang, Abang and Darling! hihihiii i yang tersenyum2! It was a nice 'reunion' as i havent seen Abah for quite a while.. Abah addressed me as 'anak abah' all the time. *hugs hugs*

The 3 days were hectic. Mama's itinerary included Kamdar (she told me her 'schedule' even before we arrived =p) to get Hakeem a road-map carpet like the one we have at home for Mamat. So we went there on Saturday, but i ended up spending more than her :S carpet for my room, kain ela to make baju kurung for work! takpelah, Kamdar, memang berbaloi!

The other shopping spree included searching for aquarium for mama's new ikan puyu (5 of them but only 3 survived and 1 looks like nearly kiok now), 3 types of broom/brush (1 of them were made from bamboo stick that is long and couldnt fit in the bonet so need to be put on the passengers seat at the back, yess that bad!), rattan holahoop for nabila (PLEASE MAKE SURE U HAVE THE HOUR GLASS FIGURE BY HARI RAYA), some plastic stuffs from rm2 shop (dont ask me what they are, i couldnt be bothered anymore by the end of the day).

OOHH on Sunday night we went to Batu Feringghi! (i have to admit that was my plan, hihii. coz im scared i wont have the time to go to craft markets anymore after this). i (again) spent a (ehem) few bucks on dvds (NO not as much as akak's DVD borong), fridge magnets (for our future fridge in our future house tooo -hihiii dunno when we'll have our own but we've started the collection, gatai! =p ), cute pinkish decorative lights for my new room and a recycled-paper photo album. it was raining soo heavily, but mama showed the spirit not to give up to the rain so i didnt failed her. ngeh3. Poor Makcik (as the tourist guide) had to follow this two mom-daughter's crazy lifestyle. oooooh i saw this super nice cotton dress, but it could only be reduced to rm40 (and im not good at haggling, unfortunately) so i let it go. SOBS! now im having flashbacks about it!!

I thought the shopping spree ended there, but mama wants to go to the market on the morning of our departure back home! sigh~ i planned to go back in the morning to avoid the matahari-rembang-terpacak heat in afternoon but nope! oh well..no pressure. there's nothing to lose so we ended up going back at 2pm. as i mentioned to Abah, Mama hasnt visit Penang for a while so all of this is her back-dated revenge, heh!! It was raining heavily otw back so yea no heat too, ngeh3.However I have to mention the degree & horrority of traffic jam (and a flood that seems non-existance by the time we passed it) from tol Plus rawang, up the ramp/flyover until Petronas!! it was horrendous. Not forgetting those stupid nasty drivers who skipped queues!! took us 2.5 hours to reach home! it should be 15 mins! i repeat, 15mins!!!!! somebody, do something!!

relax.. thats the whole point of this escape. pheww~

Now im back home! and back to reality! going for the induction somewhere @Morib 5-9 April, and surely will start working on the 12th. I will know where i'll be working during the induction. may I get Hosp Serdang, Aminnnnn aminnnnnn~
