Driver, what would you do?

As mom of two boys I got my time to fetch my boys from school, so I parked at vacant parking near to shop that is not far from school. Then there's knocking at my car's windscreen where this lorry driver came down to talk to me asking me to give him my parking spot. Reason he wants to park nearest to the locksmith shop so that he can unloading and loading his things from lorry.

He asked me few times in mandarin, I politely told him that I am not giving up my parking space. I didn't park in red parking lot, so it's public for first come first park! His lorry happened to be behind of me, anyway he told me that I still have time I can go round. But I already go round few time only find this parking spot. After he parked, another car followed parked behind of him and other cars can still pass through the lane.

Anyway I just told him few times No, he gets back his lorry and double parked near to the shop. The driver started unloading and the young man from shop also loading for him. Less than 10 minutes, he's all ready to go. I sat in car waited him with his lorry to move/get away only I step down of the car. Well who knows if he's going to scratch my car or not as I didn't give way for him to park my spot.

So this is my how my afternoon Monday passed, how about you?

RIP kitty

It's a hot day and busy road life as usual. Sad to see a kitty being laying flat next to a parking lot where there's a car parking next to it. My heart breaks seeing the lifeless body of the kitty. This happened near school of the shop lot in Subang Jaya. The body of the kitty is laying flat as it's appeared to be flattened by vehicle.

It's not the first time, even on the main road busy street. I have seen flat body of cat in middle of the road. Sometimes they are good people that took the dead body of the dead cat to the road side so that the vehicle will not continue to damage the cat.

That's why important to keep pets at home, don't let them free on the street unless you can be there with it for a walk etc. I was told that there's pet funeral in Malaysia. There's pet cemetary too.

Bangsar Shopping Center

Yesterday my first time to Bangsar Shopping Center, the last time I went there was in year 1999 if not mistaken. The year where MIX FM held for the Pegeot car contest for participant to collect two keys and try open the car.

The shopping mall is not big, it is not user friendly. I don't see any bench to sit on. That mean if you like to take a seat, you can only go to the dining area. I parked three hours and it cost me RM9.

The sign to go restroom is not clear, I can't find the restroom and ended up asking another lady. I had an hour jam to reach this mall, the raining from my place to the mall none stop. 4pm started my journey. I attended the Bio Essence event for bloggers, happy to meet friends there. :D

After the event, coming home I paid two tolls total RM2. A motorcycle was tailing me, it was crazy he would caused the accident on the road. He didn't think of safety of his family and my safety! Crazy biker speeding even though raining!

Are you interested for free stay at hotel?

Last week I received a call from the same lady that called me the other day offer the free stay at hotel. It will be great if the free hotel stay does not come with terms and conditions. It looks like anything can be possible and some people willing to try their luck head to the hotel and sit for the talk for an hour talk.

I love freebies just like my friends but I would consider if it is worth to go or not. Some friends share nice workshop with me but I unable to go because I don't know the location. I seldom get off out city unless I have to.

Yesterday I head to an event in Midvalley and I out from the mall 6.30pm but reached home 8pm. Yeah, terrific jam because of after working hours and rain in the evening until night. Many cars on the road, so it is better to be safe than sorry drive slowly, what's the hurry right?
