The Story of 16 June

I'm having problem with my house internet, that's why I've not been able to update my blog... Besides, I've been really really busy. No baking for me last weekend - there is a gym do plus night outing on Saturday; Wedding reception and shopping on Sunday.

Lynn sms-ed me about Young replacing the Saturday pump class at Maxis, so last Saturday I woke up earlier than normal so that I can get to the 1pm pump class on time. I've not been to Maxis for some time and from what I remember, I was always rushing or almost late for classes whenever I go there on a Saturday. I left the house without much delay or drama, the traffic was reasonable, in short, there was no reason for me to be late. Ha!! But guess what I had to do? - I missed a turning and went the long way, worse, into the traffic jam! Goshhh... So I ended up rushing again, but quite on time. Ok, that's not so true, not on time but the class before pump ended later. Managed to catch up with Young before class, we both found out that we will be heading to Cineleisure for the Miracle 2007 thingy and we ended up with the plan of Young going with me since he doesn't drive. I did tell him I MUST get my baby's food at GE Mall before that, in fact I planned to gym at Maxis also so that I can drop by at GE Mall for that purpose.

Young's pump class was great as ever, except for some small episodes and the sound system - the mic was too soft. I've not been to Maxis/ KLCC for I think about 3 months or more, I went gawping at the changes like - no more strudels? Oh! automatic card swiping (I don't know the proper name for this mechanism) before FF reception? Ah! main studio no more glass window? Eh... new slippers for the shower area!

After Maxis, we managed to grab some lunch items to eat in the car after "shopping" at GE Mall, I was expecting some traffic getting to Cineleisure, and I was really dreading to think about getting a parking space at Cineleisure (so I went all prepared - changed to a multi-purpose combat-jam outfit which I can jump straight out from the car and into the classes). Well, Lady Luck was really looking after me that day... Traffic was, actually, no traffic and I managed to get a "pink" spot at Cineleisure straight away! You know about the "pink" parking slots at Cineleisure right?


A fantastic idea by the very considerate management at Cineleisure. There are parking lots reserved near to the escalators for single female drivers. How many malls have got this? It's definately an added reason for us ladies (singles only - or unless you alight everyone at the lobby and park and only pick them up again later - NO! this is just a joke, give priority to those who really need this extra safety) anyways, as I was saying, good reason for us to choose Cineleisure as our hang out place.

There have been loads of reviews and stories about the Miracle 2007 already in the blogs, to me it's not as happening as last year and the lower ground level was a bit stuffy, with mixed smell of laksa and sweat, yeuwwww... can you imagine? New tracks were ok, though, I did find some of the new combat tracks erm... a bit boring; Jam was happening but since I've not been much of a jammer, not to mention only did jam once this year, I was managing terribly - very uncoordinated!

After the day of good workout, I managed to fixed up a last minute dinner date with my Partner In Crime (for gym, that's what Lynn calls us...). After considering hard and long what to eat, we ended up at Kim Gary; and after studying the menu hard and long we ended up ordering the same food (yes, even the drinks!)

Cheesy Beked Rice with Chicken ChopCoconut Pudding
Green tea with lime and sour plum

Elaine ordered this extra and she highly recommend it
Our original shopping plan didn't happen because the shops were already closed. Bumped into Zaza, Yew Mun and Eugene at Empress Cafe - Eugene putting up the slide show for Zed's wedding reception the next afternoon; Zaza just only having dinner (at almost midnight) cuz he just got off work.

Needed more sleep to look "normal" the next day....
