| world at my feet |

an update first on blogger! blogger wins this round.

so we met for buker. and attendance was less than 50%. and we still had 5. (put that way.. i just realised how BIG a group we travel.)

'twas gooood. just the right amount of havoc size-wise, but still intimate! :D :D

much was shared and boyyyyyy did we learn a lot. ;)

i knowww what you diiiiddd..

wiggles eyebrows.

pretty bloated at the end of the night. *WINK*

so let's start.. well we ate at Restoran Makanan Laut Chai Chee.

MAKANAN LAUT. like so malaysia. i mean, don't we just say.. seafood?

no photos there. of course arrivals punctuated with lack of punctuality. kherrrr. (smug look)

a HORRIFIC revelation that robbed me of two hundred dollars. (gasp)

but tis okay. if it had to be anyone, i'm glad it was you. because we will work it baybehh. ;) and we are soo gonna look good. KAN! (wiggles eyebrows)

at masjid kassim, elly had couples counseling.

this is elly at couples counseling.

:-O GASPS.
i could not help it. i burst into such huge loud laughter they shushed me!
but really. nadiah, you would have too, wouldn't you.
HAHAHAHAHA.

this is mars who would soon need couples counseling.
according to the above guidelines.
(wiggles eyebrows.)

mars' neck hasn't grown tremendously and nydia still has a face, don't worry.

this wudda been suchhh a nice photo if it weren't out of focus!
sorry i just immediately snapped without thinking.. i had to move fast! only one floor the lift-ride.. not like.. TEN floors. kan nydia? ;D

for dessert, shifted party to bugis.. by accident!

anyhow make us take any weird bus. thanks ah elly! or was it farah. (grumblegrumble)

this was us in the bus. RHYMES!

some people really enjoying themselves.

guess which is my favourite photo!

this is elly feeling left out.

yay elly gets photos too! this is the only piece with all of us in it.

this is farah.

she took this photo for us while we were waiting for elly.. making a biggie.

elly wants a piece of the fun. but farah almost cuts nydia off.

finally! and farah says i look happiest! (beams bigbig)

this is not an act-cute photo.

"ehh tanak ah, delete!" -__-

oohh i loveyy my girlies! (: (: went home with this happy satisfied feeling set deep down in my heart. deep deep down down deep down in my heart! (BEAMS)

okayy i think that's all i have to say.

now i'm suuuper sleepy. budden now i have to sahur. (yawns)

this one's for you, dah. (:

warm milk and toasted muffins. and a yummy girlfriend to boot.

nothing i say will be quite enough to describe that night. so i shan't. love you, dah. (:

and as for you. why you sly fox, you. ^__-

now when was the last time we saw one of this..

or one of this!!

picture of food i mean.

and the boyfriend has gotten sooo particular abt taking photos with/of him. so nows-adays i barely have photos with him! .. his loss. ;D

great day today; simple date. haven't had one of those in a loong time.

even though we didn't do anything, it felt like everything. i've missed you.

thanks baby. (:

so many people (like my friends) have seen these photos already! (and AAALL those before this also)

hennyways, THAAAANK YOU MARSIE DEAR! *muaaah*

little ms i'm-an-auditor got her first pay! and that meant FILL MY TUMMY TIME! ;) ;) *jigglydance*

also, the other missy auditor wanted to enjoy her first pay! and so off it was to hunt for clothes and make-up! too bad tangs didn't have a bobbi brown counter - i wanna get pot rouge! yumms.

anyway, over the past couple of days, i've been thinking abt some items i need, not exclusively limited to but including a pair of green open-toed heels, preferably with a buckle across the front. as such, i am officially lifting the post-LA shopping ban. :D

hooray!

ok calling non-working, non-9to5ers to be my shopping partners! because shopping on saturdays is a bitch, period.

ok photos from saturday night, sept 1st.

mid-shopping break! met nadz's bestie, hello you! (:

and like after gazillions of eons, finally met my OWN bestie.

this one hatta promoted to bestie level. (;

something's missing.. or rather, someone.
i hope she knows it too.

"syaaa why never take the curtains!"

and she takes the curtains.. JUST the curtains. -__-

niiiice. (: love you sexyy auditor!
actually i'd much prefer Henry on my shoulder. geeky is the new sexy.

no lah not really. i'm only saying that cause i know mars wants him.

yummy yumyums @bali thai!
the food is DA BOMB, fyi if you never been there. personal favourite of mine and hatta's.

we almost always get the same things. butter prawn is a must. ayam panggang bali. tom yam seafood. and if i'm up for it, kangkong belacan! yummehs!

(okay it's pretty much the same stuff i get everywhere! like at magic wok too.)

to their credit, they have never disappointed thus far.

anyway that night we got hit by some pretty bad (damn cock) service. although i think it's also the customer's responsibility - to earn the service.

sure you're paying for it; tax and service charge and stuff. but still. you don't have to be that rude.

i've been served pretty badly before - and trust me when i say this. for instance, the staff have actually misplaced my credit card - INCREDIBLE eyy. (by misplaced i mean, they sent it to another table. like hello, bodoh.)

anyway, so having experienced worse shit before, i thought what happened at the start was pretty insignificant - surely no cause to be rude to the waiter. a simple "excuse me we asked for iced water a while ago, can we get it soon pls?" would have sufficed.

i woulda been pretty unhappy too if i had been spoken to like that. it's my job and everything yeah, but don't speak to me like i'm a dog. or your slave.

and they have every chance to spit into your food. so don't, unnecessarily.

so later (i can recall only vaguely) the same waiter comes back and he fumbles again. something about taking some plates away and putting down the new ones. this time he pisses off more than one person at the table, one of whom had no qualms abt letting him know how she felt, albeit indirectly.

this time though, i felt he rightly deserved it. he didn't seem apologetic even. he had this perverse look on his face, which i thought had no place in the restaurant, especially not in front of your customers. tsk.

by that time however, i couldn't give two shits abt what he was doing and how he was going to do it. i did notice however, that one or two of the guys tried to help him juggle the many plates.

i couldn't help wondering though.. evil begets evil? if we hadn't been mean at the start..

yet, a good customer service rep wouldn't let the grudge show, i feel.. *shrugs*

ok light moment!

this is ngajiman guilty. he stole! THE SAYUR.
ok like i know mars doesn't eat sayur, BUT the rest of us do!

my sexyy girlies.
okayy i know sexy is the last word you would use to describe a bevy of tudung girls, but orang punyer suker ah!

anyway guess what my sexyy girlies. two days after we were at esplanade, hanging around outside max brenner's waiting for a seat, i got an fb msg.

"were you and your girlfriends at the max brenner's at esplanade on saturday night? i saw a group of pretty tudung girls as i walked past.. got a feeling it was you and your gal pals!"

oh-emm-gee i say. time to conduct ourselves properly, full-time!

the msg-er was an acquaintance, not like a complete stranger. so it's not too scary.

anyway i get lots of "your friends are so pretty!" hmm, maybe i should start hanging out with ugly people.. -__-

@lau pa sat, the only place heeyuge enough to accommodate us.
plus, is and lat joined us!

at the end of the night, huzer challenged us to unlock his car door in 1 1/2 minutes. this because unlike modern cars, there are apparently THREE keys to this one car. so if you wanna steal his car, you gotta get ALL three keys, and then figure out one by one which key goes where.

or you can just break the glass and hotwire the car.
