An Insane Day Out

The day was Sunday, the 11th of May year 2008 to be exact... and it was the first time i had gone out shopping with my dear cousin Audrey ( after numerous complaints from her about being left behind by Lee Wen and I )... and it had proven to be quite an insane day, which i mainly contribute to her... =.="

While it started off pretty ordinarily, things started becoming a little strange.... first came the unstoppable laughter, primarily contributed by the oh-so-giggly Lee Wen... followed by Audrey's unstoppable hunt for "mini-skirts"... which, we, during which we had tortured poor Andrew by making him visit nearly every female clothes/shoes boutique in sight... >.<

However, to make up for our meanness, we decided to allow him the chance of selecting what we would have for lunch... and he selected.. Subway... which was not at all surprising... and we had a pretty nice time looking for it, thanks to two silly guides who don't seem to know their ways around very well at all.. >.<

LUNCH!! ^^
Audrey and i shared a foot-long club sandwich, while Lee Wen had a 6-inch Italian BMT (whatever that stands for) and Andrew had a 6-inch Roast Beef... ^^

Andrew's Food...
Audrey's and mine... Miki's half has all the veggies... >.<
Lee Wen's Food.... Looks the most miserable... and i wonder why...

Long story short, after lunch, we discovered that there was nothing left to do and had therefore decided to go skating... HOWEVER, we had forgotten to bring our gloves along... and Lee Wen and Audrey didn't even have socks... and my ever-so-creative cousin decided that we should buy the gloves and socks elsewhere instead of at the rink itself due to the charges... We happily agreed on it.. and thus began our insane journey, or rather, mad rush, in hopes of buying everything and leaving at least 2 hours of skating time...

First was the dash to Giant Supermarket...for.. 99 cents socks?? Well, they took long enough simply locating the section that sold them... just to find it right at the entrance.. =.=" so blind... and therefore, one crisis solved, next would be gloves... Audrey had suggested Gardening gloves that costed 99 cents as well, but upon looking at it ( and driving my into an uncontrollable fit of laughter) we decided against it and had therefore come to the decision of trying our luck out at Jusco... and so we went... ALL THE WAY, RUNNING... in Andrew's words " you'll be tired even before you start skating"... and he was quite right... >.<

in the end, we ended up with these gloves... and looked like magicians... ah well, RM3.50 is a small price to pay for lasting memories.. Lolx... so unforgettable, the day we skated with magician's gloves... >.<

yes, everyone left their gloves with me in the end and i had to wash them all... lazy people.. =.="

Skating!!! ^^ JOY!!

After skating.. back to normal... lolx...

The entrance bands... notice there are two that say DISCOUNT... a reminder to all students who wish to skate, bring your student ID's with you... because then you will be entitled to a RM3 discount... ^^ ( or at least i think it was RM3)...



Pics!! ^^

My two beloved cousins, Lee Wen and Audrey...

Andrew and I... ( i look sleepy)... >.<


The Pinks!! ^^


Dear cousin Lee Wen who doesn't wanna 'give me face'....

Audrey... lolx... getting drinks for us... maybe the reason behind the expression... >.<

In other news....

When i went out the day before, I had come across a little toy which i found to be rather adorable, especially after watching Lee Wen study for her exams... i realized that she had a fondness for squeezing a certain squishy ball which she had eventually named the 'stress ball' as it was generally used to relieve tension... ^^ I had therefore decided to purchase a certain squishy egg-toy for her...

And when squeezed...
cute, no?? ^^

anyway, as expected, Lee Wen became very fond of the toy... perhaps a little too fond... she had taken to bringing it around the house, allowing her to squish it constantly... i guess her over-squeezing had finally made the egg give way, because in less than 3 hours of giving the toy to her, the egg had sprung a leak.. all over my bed... =.="


This would be Miki's attempt to patch the hole.. with lots of super glue... =.=" apparently they had not done a very good job when they had originally sealed the egg off and it was that part which had given way under the pressure... the egg was saved, by the way, at the cost of my fingers being stuck together by super-glue... =.=" the things i do for these people... Ah well, love them ^^
