Flower by Kenzo

My body was pumping adrenalin, paces getting faster. Destination reached. MY GOD the q was so long i nearly lost my temper, but its a Sunday, long Qs at the ATM is a normal thing. Why am i being so impatient? Sigh.. i was making a purchase but the amount of the bill was beyond the limit of my card that i had set earlier. ( Changed the limit form 5k to 2k a week ago so that i can control my spendings). Bugger! i shouldn't have changed my limit! Here i am being embarrassed as my card was rejected queuing up to change the limit again. How foolish.

As my mind wonders around my skull, i smelled something very familiar, very comforting... It was KENZO FLOWER! Mummy's favorite perfume and my mother's most recent fav (her ultimate fav is Dior Dune and Estee Lauder's Pleasure). They were running a campaign for the perfume just a few meters from where i am standing. The new Campaign featured ShuQI as the model and there were Poppy flowers everywhere. So RED so beautiful.


the perfume

My turn finally came. HOW STUPID! this machine do not have the function to change limits! Argh!!!!!!! I withdrew cash instead. sigh... rushed to shop and paid the amount, then i went back again to the Kenzo Campaign and took these pictures.

ps: I miss my mum and mummy :-(

Movies i want to watch

I am so thrilled to go and watch Hancock, the stupid super hero. I donno what the fuss about the movie that everyone is sooooooooooooooo fussing about which apparently making me fussing about it too on this blog. heheeh i am blogging=blabering. The trailer is really cool!



Then there is Sex in The City movie. I saw the trailer in the cinema last few months but i really donno why it is not showing in Malaysia. THE WHOLE world had watched it in the Cinema but i guess the title it self is too "provoking" to be showed here. sigh... what a waste...


Hellboy, Hell YEah! thats what im talking about hahaha. HELL BOY 2 is coming out soon! really cant wait to watch this one. This is one of the coolest movie to be watched this year. The trailer itself nearly made me jump off my seat! too excited hahaha

The Starbucks Experience

I am a huge fan of coffee, yup to the extend of an addict. Starbucks is one of my fav coffee shop aka kopitiam heheh. Since i am a fan of this coffee chain i decided to understand and learn about its success in becoming one of the world largest coffee chain. With the addiction to coffee at hand and my habit of reading i decided to buy "The Starbucks Experience" book.


The Book

The book started of with the Green handbook for Starbucks staffs, its code of conduct so called. The five principles of their operations was then reveled one by one. I gotta say that the book is very informational and the story is very interesting. How a simple coffee shop became such a huge coffee empire. As usual im not going to tell you all about the book. You gonna have to buy and read it your self. hahaha. Its just Rm87.70 for a hard cover and if you buy them in any Border bookstore you can get a 20% off with a purchase of any magazine of any price. Quite a bargin, or else you can try getting your hands on the paperback or from Pay for Less( if its your luck).

Funny pictures 3 and lazyness

Been very lazy to update my blog. I had many things going on. Today i skipped coffee! Yay! Ok i had never done this "my little diary" kinda post before. Like JJ said, its lame! But hey i wanna do it. At least once right. So here it goes:


1. morning woke up and shower


2. Had breakfast with Amir at Nz when i was suppose to go to a "kenduri"

3. Skipped Kenduri and went to gym for a quick workout+settling my bills

4. Went to Avenue K's food court to eat (seriously i donno that the food court there is so cheap and yumyum! you should go and try!)

5. went to Guess and bought 2 collared T-shirt for Aidil Fitri (lam
bat lagi but i dont like to shop during festive season coz im usually too busy attending all the preparations until i forgot to buy clothes for my self)

6. Had to go to Avenue K to get some stuffs. (the Armchair i posted previously and some other home decor for Kaye Residence.

7. Went back to Wangsa Maju house and had a long conversation with my dad on the phone. I swapped my second degree for a loan from him to start a business. Pretty happy about it. Going to take business, franchise, pastry making, French Asian cooking and photography classes on certificate level as a preparation. Dad finally admits that all this while i had been doing a pretty good job taking care of everything he assigned me to do. :-) Im happy too.

8. Took a nap, woke up and pack to go back to Kaye Residence. Arrived and found the place so messy and I drove my self crazy to rearrange everything at its right full places. I hate it when people move things that I had already arranged. Even my food cabinet was rearranged back to my own liking. Easier for me to get greedy heheheh

9. Made dinner for my self and the ordered cupcakes. Settled down in front of the tv and watched 10,000 BC in HD. Damn! It’s a BLAST! I didnt know my sound system was that good and the TV is that nice to watch!

10. Here I am, after a ciggy writing on my blog about my lame day! hahhaa.

Well that's all that I did today, of ya I also bought 2 more books to read, My legal Self and The Starbucks book. I am running out of space to store my books and Dad is gonna kill me if he finds out that I bought those books with my lunch money. I just feel that I asked to buy too many books already last month and feel a bit guilty to ask to buy summore. Here are sum funny pictures that my friends and readers had sent me. Enjoy ya!


wow what a school bus!

Barbaric

These are photos sent to me by my friend showing some "humans" eating babies and cutting them before processing them into food. What kind of human beings would do this to dead babies. So Barbaric.

Prime, Le Meridien

Last week while I had my super compulsive syndrome at hand (as usual), I made my way to one of the many Le Meridien restaurants, Prime. It is a place which serves imported steaks and wine with the motto; The American “Prime Grill, Prime Wine, Prime Time”. I arrived there without any reservations wearing simply my grey Sisley sweater, a blue striped Topman singlet, Banana Republic pants and my gold+white Nike. Heads turns, being me; used to turning heads, I ignored. People there were dressed to kill, perfect suits and opulent dresses, even toddlers were dressed in Kenzo or at least Ralph Laurents. Strangely I don't feel out of place, maybe because to me as long as you can pay the bills, you are alright.


the restaurant

I was seated at the waiting area while my table were being prepared and I made specific descriptions of where I should be seated, dark, semi private, and shield from the public view. I love my privacy. While waiting, I browsed the menu and wine list. Damn they are good!

I was seated at an oval shaped two seater table at a corner with semi enclosed oval wall. It’s perfect. Somehow I can’t help noticing that the waitresses were giggling and whispering to each other while looking at me, some of them were even trying to steal a look at me. Yup I guess they were flirting with me. hahahahah what can I say, a good looking young man with confidence (perasan) is having dinner alone in a posh restaurant; I’m sure they are labelling me as "opportunity".

I ordered Kimberly 150 days red grained feed Australian Rib Eye with truffle sauce and asparagus. The wine was tempting but I don’t drink so I skipped to stilled Panna instead. They served me spicy focacia bread and sun flower seeded bread with interesting 3 choices of butter; green tea, salted and sour. YUM! No appetizer for me since I love the breads very much.


the steak and bread

Suddenly I saw her, those red thick lips, that hair, that walk, that look. It’s Ainul, baby as I had always called her. She is as pretty as ever, as radiant and sexy even with that ugly corseted uniform she was wearing. Damn!

She made her way to me, delivering my dinner. OMG she didn't notice me until " Sir this is Kimberly...." and there we were smiling at each other like mad. She was so happy to see me her eyes was watery. We had a short conversation. I had my dinner and was leaving, then she came, whispered in my ear, rubbed my tummy like she used to and looked at me with that smile, “i will call you". At that point, the other waitresses were staring at us in disbelieve and envy hahahhaha. (Yup... I am in trouble!)

The rest of the night is history. :-)

p/s: Prime is not for the faint hearted men, if their smoking hot waitresses don't give you a heart attack the bill will surely do. hahahha.
