Typical weekend but with unexpected plans

Another weekend came and claim his way. But this time is way too fast to even know its ending. Friday, was a blast to me at work. Completed my assignment with compliment by bosses and that’s what I refer as performance oriented reward motivation. With just a simple gesture and note of appreciation, we feel that our work was acknowledged by the bosses and will strive for more! But still, it seems to take ages for every hour to end this Friday. So when the clock finally strikes 5.30pm, we were busy packing for a short shopping spree. That’s the major crisis for working near a shopping mall. You tend to shop and shop and shop. Or maybe just ME!

I crashed Mya’s house again and she made my weekly hard work of burning calories back to square one. She cooked pasta with cheese and beef bacon then stuffed us with chips and mayo dips and worse, pizzas and more cheese! Also paired our sinful food with vodka and 7up, which sum up more calories than just Cola! We stuffed ourselves to perfectly full and bitch bout life. But not too sure what make me so exhausted, was too tired to make an effort to talk, slept on the couch and all the way till 6am in the morning! But wasn’t a welcoming morning at Mya’s apartment. The stupid security clamped my car wheels because I had a wrong visitor pass. I should display an overnight pass if I’m staying over 2am in the apartment. Seriously! How would I know if the security did not inform when he recorded my details at the entrance? Bugger! And the security guard (yet a Chinese pig) was too rude. I had to pay fucking RM50 for a fault that was not MINE. Stupid!

Went home furiously but make a stop to take away breakfast for mom. Just to compensate for not being home for her while she was around. Took few more hours slept during the day and went off with BFFs for dinner.

The question: Where should we have our dinner? What should we eat?

Like a super difficult IQ challenge question. And you will never ever come out with a good satisfying answer. Luckily, we hang around Solaris which was way too familiar..We decided to try Naab, an Iranian cuisine.

Car was parked at roadside and with 2 welcoming rats along the walkway! (No worries, we parked opposite the restaurant so definitely the rats are not permanent residents of the restaurant. LOL). We walked in the restaurant with a welcoming human being waiter who can’t wait to serve us. I always happy when the waiter allows you to pick the seat rather than being usher to a table that you don’t prefer and ending up pouting while looking at the your desired table. So we pick a corner with sofa seats. The restaurant is thoughtful enough to place a fan around each corner to ensure the guest enjoying the food rather than busy wiping the sweats/can’t wait to get out of the stuffy restaurant. For restaurant owner, this is a very important point that you should take care of while planning on the interior layout of your restaurant. Ensuring you guest to feel comfy is the second important thing after the quality food.

We were served some lime juice to cleanse your taste bud and get your tummy growling. Since Monica is here and she is so well know of Iranian food, she ordered some appetizers and main dishes for us.

Hummus - creamy dips for the bread

Tabouleh - taste better with the lemon juice

The big piece of bread

This is horribly taste. Yuck! Not my favourite at all.

The kebab meat is so juicy and well marinated. The Basmati rice topped with saffron is the best combination. Overwhelmed with good food AGAIN, so I missed the pictures. Will try to compensate again next time.

But the Iranian tea was quite disappointing. It taste no difference compare to normal English tea. And worse part, I ordered a cucumber/mint/apple cider juice which the combination sound soothing and detox-ing but it taste more like sucking your toothpaste tube. Exactly…very Darlie oriented taste. LOL. So as we update our lives, I tried my best to gulp down the Darlie drink cos quite pricey wei!

The exhaustion of sleepless nights due to movie whoring with Astro 322 and 411 channel (Chinese and English movies channel) plus bitchy night with colleagues, worsen my condition of paying full attention of what the BFFs have to say. I can’t keep my mouth shut for yawning every 30 seconds. So we decided to call it a night and head home.

I was supposed to get straight to bed yet, the movie whoring version of me, jump out of the closet again. So, I was a potato couch till 3am. True enough, it makes me late for my Sunday brunch appointment. What worsens the whole “I am sorry for being late” situation was my little black car battery died. Damn it!

Frog Prince helped me to jump start the engine while I search for workshops to replace the battery. The first workshop didn’t offer much explanation on why my car battery is more expensive than usual ones. He just mentioned the price and leaves it to me to decide. RM330 was too expensive! So I thought him trying to cheat an innocent girl who knows nuts about car parts. Then I head to Uptown to meet with BFFs and get my battery fixed. That is when I know my darn little black battery is so unique. Due to the battery box size is shorter aka custom made, the retail price is higher than the normal one. This means, I still need to pay RM300++ for the darn battery. Fuck it!

And we headed to Tropicana Mall for brunch which turned out to be lunch by that time.

We were in Bad Ass for more that an hour or so just to bitch about our friends..Erm..well, not so close friends. LOL Maybe..Not even friends. Of course, we talk about world topics and just about anything that sparks our interest.

We had a crazy movie : The ZooKeeper which was superbly hilarious! Then we head to our dinner at Kiku Zakura. It's been ages since I step my feet there for dining experience again. The food is still at is highest quality. Never fails me!

I'm trying to use the 'chin down' angle to hide the fats away :P

I had a wonderful Sunday with great friends.

And of course, I made a promise to Franny to complete my new found hobby before end of Dec 2011. I'm working hard on it babe. Trying to accomplish an art creation for my new house. And if I am still interested to continue for 2nd one, I'll opt for the sunset view for my mom's room.

You ought to get yourself devoted to every corner of your new house. Not just to claim territory like the animals do (LOL, so into The ZooKeeper) and not trying to get out of your Herbivor life (ROFL) Just a way to show your concern and love for your new house aka my dream house.

Next post will be the update of the progress of my new found hobby.
