Surprises on a weekend...


I was at Khareyana Spa this morning with my little sister. We were seated near the sliding door over looking the lovely landscape. I love listening to the water gushing in the man made pond surrounding the bungalow and the beautiful ala Balinese trees.


I was there for a whole 2 hours enjoying the facial treatment and when it ended I just did not feel like going home :P

Anyways, it just hit me that today will be the last day of March, and just like a speeding bullet, we are now moving into April and like the saying goes, time waits for no man. The first thing that came to my mind was, hey girl, what have you achieved thus far for year 2007?? My answer would be, not much except work and work. Have not gone for any holiday trip just yet or went through any major changes so far. But I guess there is 8 more months to go till I get what I have initially planned for year 2007 in terms of career and other important areas of my life.

Hehe, I have been on leave since Thursday as I wanted a long weekend off to rejuvenate and enjoy some quality time with my parents and my niece, lil Copie. Most of my spare time was spent by being Cophie’s playmate. We played almost about anything under the sun, pretending to be the star and the moon, the teacher and student, mary and the little lamb, mr spider, the sheep and the dame, the list goes on and on. I never knew time flies really fast when you are actually playing with kids. I think I shed a few pounds here and there jumping around like a maniac trying to match her energy.

Apart from babysitting lil Cophie, we were also surprised to note that my uncle from Jakarta was in PJ for some work. My sis and I , always look forward to his visits here as he is such a cool, funny and awesome uncle. We managed to meet him for a short while due to his hectic schedule. Although he was busy we made sure that we said our hellos to him in person. Oh boy and why is it not a surprise when we did meet up we can never stop talking…..muahaha!. He is a well traveled person and talking to him is always refreshing. We told him about our next visit to Indonesia in August and discussed with him on places to go and where to stay etc. We were surprised when he said he brought some ole-ole for us! It was a bag full of pretty blouses/tops for all the girls/women in the family! Tops that you will only get in Indonesia…..Lovely eh! Oooohh that reminds me, I need to write him a list of things I need from Jakarta that I can’t find here in KL. When I was in Jakarta last December, I got myself loads of natural handmade scrub soaps which I fell in love with. Unfortunately, they don’t sell them here…...Sigh! Need to put that in my diary.

We still have tomorrow, Sunday before the whole new week begins, with my neverending datelines to meet, I shall be very busy and crazy for the next 2 weeks. Damn! In the mean time I am gonna enjoy the remaining weekend and watch a few DVDs I bought today.... By the way, where is the Casino Royale DVD I bought a fews hour ago?

Here is to a swell weekend..:)

A day at the spa...what bliss.....hmmm...
U talking abt sabun manggir and the lulur?...I love those....it's good for yr skin Nour...I always have stock for them...

Nour said...

Ice,
It was sooo blissful that I doze off for a few minutes..:)

The soaps I am talking about is not the manggir but more of a scrub soap from bathaholic..which has beautiful scent.. My personal fave is the jasmin. I agree it makes my skin all soft and smooth...and the soap are all naturally produced. I bought loads when I was there in Dec but ever since I use them daily, they are never enough.
