It's been seven hours and 15 days..

..since you took your love away..

Eceh, cam sedih benar la pulak..

Takde lah. Tu lirik lagu Sinead O'Connor - Nothing Compares To You.
Suddenly I'm remembering those lyrics when I looked at today's date. Hehhehe..

* * *

I was quite the busy-bee last weekend. On Saturday, I was at KL Sentral.. fetched Cik Udin who came to KL for a 1-night stopover before continuing home to Singapore.
Hmm, I've been driving my Neo for about a month now, and I've always thought that it's a big-enough car for two persons, or even four. But when Cik Udin was sitting at the passenger seat next to me, I realised that maybe, just maybe, my Neo is small..! Hhahaha! I think it's because I've almost always travelled alone in the Neo (alah, cuma pergi kerja and balik je.. hiihih), and rasanya cuma Mak Abah je pernah jadik passenger in that car. Hehe.. and Cik Udin is a rugby player. So, you go figure it out lah ;P

We (Mak, Abah, Kai, Cik Udin & myself) then had a very nice lunch at Cozy Corner at Ampang Park. Rice with some dishes: lady's fingers with belacan, prawn with buttermilk, crispy fried squid, mixed vege and chicken with dried chilli and cashew nuts (kong po style).
YUMMYYY!

That night Mak cooked dinner, as usual I'm just helping out hehe..
We had ikan parang masak asam pedas, begedil (home-made, ok!), fried tempe (marinated with garlic) and sayur sawi (eh, what's 'sawi' in English? *blur*). Another round of lovely home-cooked meal..

I was dead tired by end of Saturday. Luckily Kai was around to help entertain Cik Udin hehe. I think they both went to the Danau Kota 'uptown' bazaar, but didn't buy anything. Most probably they went to have 'teh tarik' with Kai's friends and chit-chatted until wee hours of the morning.

On Sunday had to come into the office for a few hours. When I left the house at 9am the house was still quiet. Hehe.. yeah yeah, who works on Sunday morning eh? But I was actually quite surprise to see the parking lot in front of the office to be quite full. Apparently Level 3 was bustling with activities as some staff had to move from another building, back to the Centre.

(Oh, that reminds me.. a dear friend is back here in the building from a few years' stint away from this place. Hehe.. welcome backkk! Hugs!)

Around 1pm I met up with that certain someone for a quick lunch. Nice tomyam place we went to.. we had rice with dishes: pandan chicken, tomyam, and telur dadar (plain egg omelette .. eh betul ke spelling?). The starfruit juice (he had) and orange juice (mine) was nice! Tapi slack sikit coz banyak ais. Next time must remember to order less ice..

Believe it or not, after the quick lunch with that certain someone, I headed to Victoria Station for high-tea with the family and Cik Udin!

Kakakaka... my stomach must have been a bottomless pit that day! Boleh pulak masuk steak petang tu.. Luckily I ordered Fillet Steak which I think should be re-named to 'Minute Steak' for its "cute" size :P

After a delicious round of steak *yums*, we got on the Waja, and Kai and I sent Cik Udin to KLIA for flight home to Singapore, while Mak Abah drove my Neo home (hehe, bergaya OK my parents with the Neo!). Cik Udin's flight was at 7.30pm, so we waited a while for him to check in and all, and ultimately left KLIA at around 7pm.

* * *

Having Cik Udin around for that weekend made me realised that the last time I went to Singapore was about 6 months ago! I didn't even manage to visit them during Aidil Fitri *sigh..* Which means.. I SO need to plan a visit to Singapore. And SOON!

Oh yeah.. I think Air Asia have started flying its Singapore route.. right..?
Gotta check that one out. Maybe I can get a good deal for a return flight hehe..

Let's see.. am I free on the 1st February weekend? :))

Yamm,

Since you're eating out a lot with that certain someone and trying out those cool restaurants, mehlah buat blog on restaurants and good food. Mehlah... So next time, remember to take pictures of the foods you ordered, then do a small write up, and we post it on the blog. Mehlah, kay.

Look like you had a busy weekend. Hhmm.. best nya dengar tapi. Mine was busy too, BUT also tiring.

Err, about that. Biar aku fikir dulu lah.
Macam.. tak terfikir nak commit to that (that = blogging about food / doing food reviews).
:)
