Book craze

If we have a task to complete for the day, 
We will usually be out the whole day.
Mr. Boss will always be very concern about one thing: 
Izit time to clear my bladder ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

After completing the "task of the day" today,
He asked, "OK, Permaisuri or Parkson?"
(Note: "Parkson" is almost every Mirians way of saying Bintang Megamall ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚)
By now, I bet the first response from friends will be,
"Wah, so nice, can go shopping!"
But not everyone will understand that
What we REALLY need is an accessible toilet,
And not all places have that...
So of course, between the two choices,
The bookworm will definitely say "Parkson" without thinking ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚





Because Parkson has a Popular Bookstore and Permaisuri doesn't. Ahaha.

A magnet force attracted me to 2nd floor after that ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
This place is so magical that I can stay here for hours...
I feel like Belle from Beauty and the Beast, haha...
The moment I enter this place, it's never ending... 
3 hours here and I will have Mr. Boss checking in every hour, 
Asking, “ไฝ ๅœจๅ“ช้‡Œ?” ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
My answer will be, “่ฟ˜ๅœจ่ฟ™้‡Œ” ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜










Can I say, "It's heaven on earth" ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†

Throwback 11122022: Today's adventure terlalu "chi kek" ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

A few days ago, we discovered an almost-flat tyre,
But did not give much thought to it
Since we weren't scheduled for any appointments these few days.

But today, Mr. Boss teased me about Southlake again.
I had a shock of my life to see it totally flat when I checked.
Sought assistance from the neighbourhood community whatsapp group.
To cut the story short, the culprit was a pesky little nail ๐Ÿ˜‘๐Ÿ˜‘

Mr. Boss quickly drove to the nearest workshop
And got the issue settled.
Came back to fetch me for my Sunday swim. 








Remember I said Sundays were for members only?
But today was even better!
The coach that was there last week with his students, 
Weren't anywhere to be seen today.
Turned out they are in Sibu for a tournament.
Whoalah! I had the whole pool to myself
For the first two hours. Syok gila ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas


Jingle bell, jingle bell
Jingle all the way ๐ŸŽ„๐ŸŽ„
From my excitement, what can you tell?
My favourite month is here to play ๐ŸŽ„๐ŸŽ„

After a two-year break, 
This event is back on track.
We have secretly decided to join in the fun,
But when the invitation call came from Miri City Council,
It was all the more official ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ’ช



Jingle bell, jingle bell,
Jingle all the way ๐ŸŽ„๐ŸŽ„
The weather tomorrow better be well,
Because Elaine wants to go out and play ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Water Baby...


Throwback to last week: 
After close to 3 years of Covid restrictions, I'm back!
In terms of hygiene, Southlake is still the best ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

I can't stand public pools, 
Because they allow anyone and everyone
With any and every types of attire
To enter the pool ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

After Covid restrictions loosened, 
Mr. Boss has offered to bring me to xxx for a routine hydro.
After going there thrice and coming home with red spots on my skin,
I don't think I will be going there again anytime soon.
So when he asked, “่ฆๅŽปๆธธๆณณๅ—?”
I said, "No Southlake, no ๆธธๆณณ“ ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

So yah, back to Southlake...
The REAL surprise was when we were at the counter to pay for my swim ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜
Took out my wallet and by the time I handed the money, 
The guy at the counter said, "Saya sudah call management.
Dia org cakap tak perlu bayar. Tapi mau isi details dlm buku ini."

To my very surprise, the cover of the book says,
”PERSATUAN PERKHIDMATAN KEUPAYAAN MIRI" ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜
After 3 years of "covid break",
(What's more after a change of management),
We really did not expect them to still remember us ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

He was curious as to why there were not many people, 
Especially since it was a Sunday...
Answer: Because Sundays and Wednesdays
Are for members only...
Lucky me ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜
