Saturday Bumps & Some

Have been looking forward to this day all week, particularly coz was gonna go out and see to my Hari Raya job thingie. Will be working at the Gardens, either Isetan or Robinson's at their perfume counters. And that i'm looking forward to as well! Will be having a work-sleepover week with Arlena and maybe her sister too over at my place. You have no idea how much i've always wanted to have my friends sleepover here. I've never had so much space in my own room in my whole life. And my own bathroom! And my own queen sized bed! :D thanks to my uncle and aunt... well the furniture is theirs but... for now, even though these aren't mine, i want to share them with a friend or some friends. To he honest... in my whole life, i've never had a friend sleepover in my house ever. And i'm 21 now!


Last night, Arlena texted me and said she'll be coming along to the job settling thingie, and that it was to be at 1pm, AND Kenny Rogers meal for FREE! Apparently, her sister has these vouchers, each fora 1/3 chicken and 3 sideline meal, and she asked me. Bloody excited at that! 


Ever since the U85 bus starts from Paramount LRT to KL, i have been ecstatic because this means my mini jamboree walking 10 minutes through park, taking LRT to Asia Jaya, and walking some more to cross the federal highway to get a bus under the boiling sun has come to an end at last. But not quite, although U85 is every half an hour, whereas out there on the main roads, there are more buses headed to KL direction. But i have to travel and sweat and stink by the time i get on the bus or reach my destination if it requires more walking! The curse of not having a car or a drivers license for my case :P


Anyway, got up at 9am, ate mashed egg salad with Camembert cheese and made myself milk tea for breakfast. Picked out a green long shirt blouse i've not worn in a long time, and tied my hair in a bun to volumize it when i let it down. I barely comb my hair, only before washing it to untangle, and after washing it to air dry faster. So some might say i'm a very unkempt girl, or some would say 'now i know why her hair is always all over the place'. oh well, i favour out of bed hair, you know :P i only comb it when i want straight hair for an occasion. 


The fun thing since U85 came diverted its stop at paramount lrt (since beginning of this month) is that when i'm meeting Arlena for that day, she'll be on the same bus as me because it stops outside her college further on after SS2!!! Both of us are always looking forward to meeting on the same bus!


At KR, Arlene had brought another friend along called Janice, from Sarawak! All the East Malaysians! :D i had mac and cheese, coleslow, and potato salad as my sidelines. Its so cool that Arlena's family gets a free voucher every week for one year for a full meal, just because they were one of the first 50 customers on KR's anniversary day. Some day, i wish i can get an offer as good as that! Arlena and Arlene spent most of the meal engaging in full throttle unmistakeable sibling bickering. It was fun, since its been a long time since i bickered with my brothers. :P

We went to Isetan to settle the job schedule and salary inquiries that we were not yet familiar with, and some plans were twisted a bit, but otherwise, all was good. Then i parted ways with the other three because it was settled and they had to buy groceries, and my monthly made me feel weak. But i ended up shopping! Not too much, RM8 for a purple beaded long necklace, and two adorable bracelets that i couldn't resist. They were beaded, they were fancy, and they were so pretty: RM 3.90 each :D It was so ME, bargains and all.


Joshua told me mum has finally found a job today. She has been my top worry all this while. I know they are broke beyond belief, and that they are surviving on near nothing. But the problem was, she wasn't working. How can you raise your children when you don't work, when your husband is not around? She didn't want to work. I even told her i could only give her money if she promised she would work. 


Suddenly, i feel like my mum is a child all over again. Ever since dad died, she's sunk so low till she's not even close to being normal. She won't listen to anyone, she'd do anything to get me to quit my studies to raise them (since i'm old enough), and she's acting helpless and being so awfully negative, that she poisons my mentality whenever i'm back in KK for my semester break. I get so awfully pissed at her that i just want to move out. 
The one worthy reason for going back to KK is my boyfriend, but my mum makes me yearn for life in KL. I know as a daughter, i should be more sensitive, more concerned, and what not to her. But i just can't stand it. i have my limits too. All she has to do is help herself. 


The workmen repairing the ceiling are gonna take roughly a day or two more. Which means a week and a little more of no laundry. I'm running out of clothes, especially shorts. I simply can't run around the house with no shorts, plus it will be so gross to think that blood might make an appearance down my thighs. EEK. Next, i'll be out of panties, which is the biggest NO-NO at the moment. So, i've started washing my own much needed modesty apparels. 


I miss my Bestie. I wish she could be here with me. She is infectious i tell you. The most craziest, cheerfullest, most affectionate creature ever. ok, she sounds like a dog now. i mean the greatest person. She is so me. =) *i know you're reading this dear!*
