2016 what's the plan?

It's been a fruitful year as I get to go Hello Kitty In Oz: The Lost Chapter. Last year I went to Krabi Island for 3 days 2 nights which I won from a contest.

I want to go Korea where it snow time, but I am afraid that nobody is going with me. So this haven't plan yet.

More time next year will be spend on my children too as my eldest son has changed tuition centre. It will a tough year for him as he's Standard 4 education can be getting tougher. Even for his little brother though next year is only 5 years old but his kindergarten is quite demanding. He's poor in writing and I am afraid that he is not able to catch up in class.

My sis apartment also having trouble to collect the rental and I did mention about this in my other blog. Seem the tenant is refusing to move out of the place with plenty of reasons. As the location is near to BRT and LRT, the apartment had build up the gates. Now the management have required the owners to pay for the touch card and the sticker for each car. 

Menara BRDB behind Bangsar Shopping Centre

It's been a long time since I last travel to Bangsar Shopping Centre, I seldom go to the mall unless I have to.  I recall my last visited the mall was attending the Bio-Essence event. Yesterday I used waze app to guide me to the mall. Guess what happened? It shows me delay of route, which I can't turn in because I miss it. I don't know why waze delay to say the turning and it was confusing because I thought the waze bring me from Federal Highway to Bangsar but it brings me from Damansara to go there.

Things got worst when I need to park at roadside at condos or apartments to see the waze again. I was almost giving up to go because I was late for the appointment too. I am suppose to go collection of prize there in Menara BRDB.

When reaching the place, I thought I have parked in Menara BRDB but I was parking in the Bangsar Shopping Centre. Anyway it is just walking distance from the mall to the Menara. I asked the concierge to point me how to go.

Lucky me I found a parking not far from exit, I didn't want to go rounding again and again to find parking. I needed to wait for the GM to comes back from his lunch though the time is 3.30pm. After collection of prize, it was nearly 4.30pm, it took me 40 minutes to reach home from there. It's heavy traffic jam after the sprint highway. 

A long day on Saturday

Yesterday is a long day for me, early morning I parked my car in Kelana Jaya LRT station. Price hike from RM3 to RM4, I parked inside as easier for me as I can just find my car there. Some people chooses to park cross the people walking bridge. My friend do that last time when I was with her to attend the Panda 1600. But this time I am alone, I choose for safety I parked inside parking of LRT station.

I took LRT to Dang Wangi, then need to walk long way to reach MRT. I forgot supposed to stop at Masjid Jamed. Hehe.. but good exercise for me. After reach Quill City Mall, attend few hours of event there then head to Times Square by monorial.

After Times Square attend the Sembonia event, then go back monorial but I ended up wrong place to get down. Hang Tuah if not mistaken the station I arrived, then I need use ktm there to go take LRT. Long day for me, I reached home almost 5.30pm.

This is how I spend my Saturday, going on a skincare and fashion event. I like fashion shoes and bags, skincare that we can never leave it behind.

Waze app not sound?!

It's my first time using Waze and I get lost haha.. no kidding, I want to go Uptown 1, Damansara Jaya but ends up at K.L. The Waze app has no sound, then I was lost... in KL. Woo... scary no choice then I look at signboard. I went Petaling Jaya, paying toll RM1.50 I asked the guy. He says I went wrong way..

Okay I maybe try again tomorrow, I have collection prize from magazine I won by this Friday.

I asked dear and my friends about the Waze and I go my Samsung phone setting to open all sound loudly.

Anyway I went wrong way coming back is going to KWSP there, so I check where my mom's nursing home is nearby there. I went to pack white chicken rice and white coffee drink for her from Chicken Rice 1977, RM11. We have a good chat between mother and daughter. :D

Not familiar with road

I am not so familiar with road so today the road closure because of maintenance. I going round and round and unable to go the destination I wanted. In the end, I parked near the road closure to walk to my destination.

No kidding, so it's very good exercise for son and me. But I forgot to bring out umbrella from car.

I need to rest my back

I had a busy day with three trips, which I stated in post if you read the link. Today also I have gone for a challenge, and I am glad I registered and get pamper and feel difference. Why I say I feel so pampered because I don't need to hands on but I get pampered like I am in the beauty centre to have facial. One staff is attending to two person at one time, some maybe three person for the 50 challengers. I am not sure how's the organization going to do for tomorrow, where they will be 100 challengers

Besides the emee explaining the steps, each time the gal also very kind to explain you about goodness of the skin care product.

It is totally worth it to be pampered like a Queen.

Mommy, I am so hot!

The weather is hot, especially haze time. So having a bottle of Eau Themale Avene Spring Water is useful. After two years of using this product for refreshing spraying our face. I decided to use cotton for wipe my son's forehead.

After he spray on his face, make sure face's wet. I used the clean cotton to wipe his forehead. It turned out dark on the cotton. You can click above link to view the picture.

He loves using the spray when he's feeling out. Travel in the car for long distance or in jam, he would use for refreshing spray. Mmmm.. maybe I need to let my dear try this, if he's feeling sleepy while driving this would do the trick!

If my dad is feeling sleepy while driving he usually pull over to rest area to wash his face. 

A world traveler and culinary enthusiast

I love reading during my past time, how about you? Reading is relaxing and we gain knowledge from reading too. I am reading about Chantal Royer. With Internet access we can read online from anywhere anytime. This is related to travel and Italian food, talking of Italian food I know my son likes Italian food. My son enjoys eating the pizza with crust and light mozzarella cheese.

Do you like to travel? I like to travel and I find that Chantal has experience adventure during her travel. She is a world traveler and she appreciates Italian food and culture. She has travel around across United States to try many Italian foods.

Chantal Royer loves cooking by learning to make traditional Italian food at home; her favourite is pasta dishes with ingredients of eggplant to seafood. I know it sound delicious, you can check out the website for more detail. I don't know there is green paste sauce, I found out from reading about her.

The website I visited is user friendly and easy to browse, you get to read about where she finds the Italian-American restaurants. If you like traditional Italian cuisine, you will like to read more from the website.

Taking the wrong turn

On Friday after I finished teaching my son on homework, I went out and I took the wrong turn into the junction of Shah Alam. Bad! There is no U turn available I need to pay RM1.10 twice. The jam is so bad I can tell you I am stucked there for half an hour for more!

The bridge for turning back to Federal Highway is very jam, the traffic lights are slow. Lucky they have two Traffic Police on the spot. Still it is a long queue to go, I reach One Utama and manage find the restaurant.

I can't believe I took the wrong turn, lesson learn is see carefully.
Stay calm and drive. :D Hehee...
