Sireh Pulang Ke Gagang

Yea..yea..tite nak alik tampong!! Hurrah, I am going home!!! Called my mom to confirm my plans. She was sniffling and sobbing. Alamak, apa sudah jadi?

She was watching Akademi Fantasia. Duhh.

I have just returned from luggage bag shopping with Che Anwar. Who says shopping with a guy is any easier than shopping with a fickleminded-I-wanna-have-everything girl. I needed a bigger bag to store my clothes together with Aishah's clothes. It was so difficult to get a "handsome" bag. My salivating over a red Crossings one was poofed like yesterday's news because it wasn't the right color Che Anwar would be comfortable carrying.

Sometimes I get peeved when everything we buy must be unisex. For example, our house, kirim salaam lah if I'd like to have pinky girly stuff. Think streamlines and no fun macho colors. I am resolved to realise my Laura Ashley/Biggie Best dreams of a home when he is too old to nag about macho this macho that, handsome this handsome that. By then I will buy as many fake flowers as I please. He has this thing about fake things. And chandeliers...I will get Murano ones...padan muka! He will see so much girly in my house, untung-untung he'd Burberry one room just for himself. Berangan tak hingat!!!

We have finalised our travel plans to the East Coast. I will go and see Mak first. My flight is tomorrow night. She wants me to cook her some dishes. I got her some gyro bread, will go out later to get her the chee cheong fun, and some aloe vera cubes for Ayah. I will probably drag Ayah to take me to Sri Munawarrah for clothes to shop in when I am in KB. Oh, I am incurable.

On Saturday, Anwar will come and pick me up in a rented Serena with my inlaws. We are heading to Kota Bharu first for my annual tudung bawal bargain frenzy. And then to Trengganu to check out the latest batik design. Might also check out Pulau Kapas. My MIL and I won the fight to decide whether we should put up at M.S Garden Kuantan or Hyatt on the way back. Che Anwar did not want M.S just because of it's pink cornice. I will tell him to wear shades when he wants to lie down on the bed. My MIL and I are so going to the mall next to the hotel. And I am so going to eat my balsamico ostrich.

I don't know how I will manage my diet. Nefertiti has given me good eats tips in KB and I am drooling already. Can smell the ayam percik already. How ahh?

I think I will just watch what I eat and walk it off at the pasars. Realistically, I can only diet when I get back from my vacation lah kan? That's on the 23rd of June. Don't think I will update while at my Mak's as I have no patience with dial up. But if tak bley tahan, tengok la camana.

So, platoon, at ease.

As you were.
