IKEA & OU stories :)

Last saturday, my husband and I went to IKEA for home appliances shopping. Indeed we spent almost 5 hours there. Having quick lunch with a friend of mine who apparently so excited to show us her new baby (i meant her new ride ). Kudos to her, u deserved to have one after all the hours, sweats and tears spending on your job.


Back to our weekend getaway, the trip was something i've been waiting for. Bonding session with my loved one as we rarely had much time strolling along the mall or park like we used to have. Being back and forth to Shah Alam & Melaka, these past few weeks even tiring and driving alone wasn't that appealing at all and i think i need a reward for actually able to write 20,000 words for my thesis. Luckily hubby said, "why don't we spend this weekend in KL, just u and I, get a hotel for a night and shop? what do you say b?". Of course being a good wife i'll say yes with an evil screaming inside (thinking of new shoes, jeans or perhap couple of new clothes hehe). Before i started to think beyond my imagination, my husband smell something fishy and claimed that "b, we are going to shop for our new house ya, no more than that. For any reason in your mind must be kept in view first till u resume your work again". (duhhh..he must have professes a psychic ability).


We left home in the morning and pardon me, we have to take slightly longer route to get there. My besty, eventually waited for us patiently. We first had our lunch in IKEA, yup meatball n fries for hubby n and me can't make up any mind what to eat. My first intention was salmon (ooppsie, wait a sec, i'm not really fancy this fish, why on earth I'm thinking of it). Then i tweaked into chicken whatever with some fries and the infamous Daim cake, yummm !!!!.


Right after, we make a waved to my friend and the stuff hunting started. Silly me for wearing 4 inch wedges for this shopping-marathon.. Fuhhh!!! can u imagined that? Demmit it was hurt ya..
My husband was the only one get excited with the purchases, me??? kinda long faces due to overwhelming sore on my feet. Once we finished with the stuff, we headed to OU..Oh ya, we only bought small things such as, dustbin (dustbin pun nak beli kat ikea, wth..), curtain rods & rail, rug, some fabrics n mirror ). Most of the items for the house were ready to be loaded. Can't wait for that :).


We had some window shopping at the mall.
1. I got my dingy dirt wedding ring buffed at Selberan..

2. I had tried on new Coach leather handbag (thinking of new one?? nope..my husband won't approved that)

3. Dinner and thirst quenched at Delicious. I never realized it was so expensive until i'm offering myself for the bill hehe ( I wonder how u guys KL people live like that, breakfast at Starbuck, lunch at Tony Roma's, tea/ cofee time at Dome, or choco time at Godiva, dinner at Chilli's). Phewwh!!!, perhaps splurging on foods becomes uncouncious habit in KL. I have made few discussions about this with some of my friends and yup, standard of living, has become the urge for this phenomenon (me just inherited calculative part of my husband). No offence to all of you out there. In fact i admitted if i was fronted by these yummilicious foods, i will not even say no to it (My mom once said to me, it's ok to splurge on food, don't be so stingy la)..haha guess i've been stucked to long in my hometown and cooked for most of my time.

4. Hubby bought a pair of new jeans and he eventually asked me to choose one (emmm, i can't say no, can I hehe). Thanks syg :)




We wrapped up the day with hotel hunting. Managed to check in at 12.30 a.m because we were not furtunate enough to get one earlier. Have to booked in advance next time. We were so exhausted and dozed off immediately after a warm bath and prayers :). This is my cue for bye bye..till then

Cheers!!
