Down memory lane....

Surprisingly, I had a very productive weekend. I managed to run a few errands which I had planned earlier prior to the weekend. I was at the bigger Giant Hypermarket in Kelana Jaya with lil Chopie for an outing on Saturday morning since my sis and bro in law had to work and later at One Utama trying to get a wedding gift for a close friend who is getting married next weekend in Tmn Tun. I found something I think she would love in Aussino. A beautiful bed sheet set! Hehe..and I could NOT resist the temptation to get a quilt cover set for myself as well with butterflies as the main motive. I like! :)




Lil Copie trying to be a Queen...or was it a King??



I finally did the gift wrapping..Pheww..done! So I don't have to rush for it next week since I will be in Malacca before the wedding.


My new Quilt cover set....butterflies everywhere :)

Apart from the gift hunting and babysitting, I am also happy that I finally managed to reorganize my already chaotic closet…It took me a whole damn two hours to get everything in place. Managed to organize my tops in their respective colours and those baju kurungs which I did not feel like wearing anymore I had to give it away. And now, wallaa…my closet looks tidier and well within control :P

Then I got my hands on the old photo ablums which I have been dreading to replace for a few months already and boy those albums really had to be replaced with newer ones. I looked at those photos I took when I was travelling, I was probably in my secondary school and university years…I had a good laugh looking at my bad “hair” years..Oh gosh, it was fun, my lil sis joined me with the laughing and giggling while reminiscing. We were comparing all the photos and laughed like crazy. We also saw old pictures of my brother and elder sis and said to ourselves, “well it looks like we are not the only ones with the bad hair stlyes………muaahahaha”, but don’t worry you guys I won't be posting your pictures for now!haha...:P



I am glad that all my photos are now nicely placed in new albums, all I can say is that those pictures just made my day! Gosh, it really has been ages since I really had a good laugh!

By the way below are a few photos that I managed to pull out...they were taken back in year 1996 (spent my easter holiday with my sis in NY, flew from Heathrow) and 1998 (with my family for her graduation).




Niagara falls ....pic taken from the Canada side, Ontario.


The awesome New York view, pic taken from the Empire State Building.


Hahahaha..thats me in year 1996, taken somewhere in Columbia University .


During the NY worst blizzard! My flight back was delayed..I was soo happy!

I would never be caught dead with that hat again - pic taken infront of HRC, Tijuana, Mexico.
