Bored

I bet there are a whole bunch of other people feeling this way at this time of the year.

I woke up early today to go to Sungei Wang. Was there to help my cousin from Singapore collect her Menard eyebrow pencil and its refills. Almost RM 200. Oh well. Needed to get out of the house anyway.

Drove all the way there but parked at Berjaya Times Square. I was not ready to park at Sungei Wang's car park - the place is cramped and creepy. Nah-uh.

Walked to Sungei Wang and was appalled by the crowd and the space there. Have not gotten used to such tight space and really low ceiling. Reached the outlet at 11:30am but the person in charge was not around so went to have brunch at Delifrance. Nothing much and cost a bit. Finally got the item and left the place. Decided then to walk to Starhill.

You know, the minute I stepped through the glass door and headed to the main lobby, I was suddenly reminded that there IS such a thing as looking poor and looking rich. Gucci, Salvatore Ferragamo, Dior. You name it they've got it. And the concierge looked high class. My mum spotted the girl working there carrying her Coach handbag to the concierge's desk. Even the guard was wearing a suit!

Please note that with all this designer brands around us, decor and ambience, my mum and I were only wearing jeans and t-shirt. We walked around like we were from the villages. The foodcourt was fantastic! I can't even call it a foodcourt. It was too good looking to be called a foodcourt. Let's just call it Court of Great Dining. Oohs and aahs filled our tongues. Got out of Starhill and headed back to Lot 10. Feels much better.

Spotted a Caucasian looking around with his shades on and having a sandwich in Dome. Happened that we were both looking at the same direction. Not sure if there was eye contact as he was wearing dark shades but when I smiled at him anyway - oh he smiled back. Felt good.

Since we are getting at that topic, moments later I noticed more good looking guys. Caucasians and locals alike. I was suddenly feeling cheeky. Smiled at another young chap passing by the corridor to Isetan. Cute but shy. He looked down and smiled. Felt good.

Enough. Back to main topic. Was going back to Berjaya by now. Rested our feet at one of the benches. Then changed our minds and had a ham and cheese sandwich and apple juice at Baker's Moment (I think it was called that). While my mum sat I paid at the cashier and for some reason the cashier was being cheeky. Gave us free coffee. Now we were both wondering if the free coffee was part of having our meal there or something else. We stuck to the former.

Got back to the car and decided to go to Midvalley Megamall. Wanted to compare Christmas decorations/theme among the malls in Klang Valley and PJ.

Arrived there in piece. I am bad at travelling around KL city. I will only travel the same route again and again just so that I won't ever get lost. Later maybe.

Went straight for the Centre Court. Woww! Cute candy and gingerbread houses! So sweet! That was the theme by the way - Sweet Christmas. Everything was pastel and light and bright. Liked it a lot. Which brings back to mind my visit to the Curve. Blue Christmas was the theme and it was beautiful! The trees and the arches of blue and crystal. Both these places a must-see destination!

Got detoured at Skin Food kiosk while on the way to the car park. Was captivated by the nail colour. Bought myself a light pink pastel-pearly nail colour - easy application and reasonably priced. The salesgirl was really nice too. Mind you that she was once a he. Very well maintained. Her voice was very well disguised too. But afterall she was still human. She was nice and not too bossy or too much. Did not pressure nor stayed unnoticed to give us good buy. Nice - these kind of people deserve to be left alone for that reason.

Anyway, came home and had dinner while watching TV. Hong Kong Chinese serial about concubines in China's imperial courts. 4 leading ladies aiming to be leading concubines in the palace - lots of scheming and games and cruel intentions. A must-see serial. It's like a game of chess in the long run with lots of pawns and good use of bishops. Suddenly reminded me of what work is like too. Scary.

Looking back now, I guess the day wasn't that boring afterall.
