We are going back home tonite. Yesterday was spent by going sightseeing ( in the car) when abe li drove us around the island,, explored the desert etc. We had lunch at yemen restaurant for mandy rice. after lunch, we prayed at the mosque nearby.. Bahrain is so safe, we just put abid sleeping in his stroller outside the female prayer room.
I wish I can put the pics snapped once a while whilst we were exploring Bahrain. Unfortunately, my cap ayam hp was not able to transfer the pics direct to my mac. tho, i managed to transfer the first few pics to my lappy, and managed to post em on FB.
I did not buy much tho, still have around 30BD (=RM240) in my purse. FMs are so expensive ( when u converted the price to RM), so i just bought a few pieces only.
Last nite, we went to Bahrain City centre (BCC), with the intention to spend all the BD in my pocket. thought of purchasing a new bottle of perfume, but when i asked the price of 75 ml Jadore Dior, it cost about 68BD which is equal to RM550? wow, it is so expensive compared to what we had in malaysia, so i decided to purchase it at the airport later. One more thing, the SA in the shopping malls here are not friendly tho. I guess, they are quite prejudice with other ethnics excluding the rich Arabs, thinking that we cant afford to buy all those stuffs. Most of the SAs are pinoys in here.
we went to autumn fair at Bahrain Convention Centre for 2 consecutive days. There were lots of items sold from various countries, yet, i cant hardly see any booth from Malaysia. The items there were so much cheaper, and we can get items up to 1 BD only. last nite was the last day, and as usual they will try to sell their goods much cheaper on that day. However, as yesterday, was also the weekend for the Saudis, we did not want to be squeezed to death by all those huge mak2 arabs, thus, a plan to visit there on the last day was not preceded.
The only thing that i admire in Bahrain is whenever the adhan is heard, they will straight go to the prayer room, and at that time we were in the middle of the autumn fair, so we were stucked in the middle of huge mak arabs lol.
and also, Bahrain is so safe, that my SIL will let her kids go to the mall with their friends, without any chaperon. If you let your car door opened on the street whilst you re not around at that time, u ll find your car untouched when u returned. there are no crime reports on newspaper, tho,there r a lotsa immigrants especialy from Sri Lanka here.
In contrast, you wont believe how reckless the drivers are. Pedestrian can be hit anytime cos they 'd never bother to drive rationally. the women drivers are even worst lol.
ok, enough about the condemns. I m going to work back next week. I m hoping that i d be able to stand the jet lag.
the next time i ll update, it will be on the bed of my room at home..
cheerio..

makcik's day out
i was on leave today.. as i told incik shahe, i went for a stress therapy at J-Card day at JJ Taman equine. Ye la,,sapa lagi nak abiskan duit yang berkepuk-kepuk kat dalam bank tu kan ( bukan duit aku. duit org) kah kah kah
so dengan tekad dan semnagan yang kental, I reached there at 9.30, thinking that we'd be the first one arrived.. ghopanyaa....
hampeh.. dah berbaris2 keter parking kat luar, meaning dat d parking lots inside r fully occupied. Thank God Cik zura managed to park at the rooftop parking and i was too bz sipping coffee with lotsa sugar n cream to rejuvenate the energy.. yess aku sungguh hampehh..
Actually i m not into shopping wth crowds. my kind'f shopping is.. a pleasant one on monday morning and of course la, time takder sale.. it ll be very empty..
so tis is sort'f change ( actually i need ppl who can push the trolley )kah kah kah.. tau la aku ni.. bawak barang skit.. cam dah nak patah tangan
We managed to come out'f the JJ at half past 6!
korang bayangkan le.. the time we spent inside was longer than the time we spend at work all day.. tapi tak kisah la.. janji dah ambik cuti.. not like some ppl whom I believed came straight from their offices.. cladded with office attire ( hari ni khamis.. so most of them wear batik0 .. apa kes!
kalu nak skive pun berpada-pada la kan.. at least bring some extra clothes and u can change it in the toilet.. ( habis la aku bagi cadangan yg amat kellless)
Tho i didnt spent tat much ( compared to my friend), and i did wait for her who was at the kid's section for more than 2 hrs. jenuh la aku bilang org kuar masuk ngan incik guard yg buat lawak bodo kat depan tu..
so the result from this therapy.. aku sakit kaki.. n sakit lutut...
stress whoaa... esok lecture kul 8.. can i change the topic to ' CC's day out at JJ for a so-called stress therapy".. boley?
anyway.. the good thing out'f tis is..i managed to buy an advance bday present for beloved ma n bak. (it wont be a surprise one tho as aku siap consult saiz depa in the middle of the chaotic crowds)
seriously, regardless the hike of fuel price , the hike of so many necessary goods, people are still spending their money lavishly like no tomorrow. I still have no idea why ppl want to buy so many pillows n bed linens just bcos they put the unbelievable discount price. some people bought few big suitacses some more.. and they had like a few trollies to put all the goods.
ye, aku sungguh tak paham.. i just bought things tat i have planned for ages to buy, only i havent had time to buy it til now..and there r items tat i was still unable to buy bcos it doest suit my taste..
so lebih kurang aku ni.. kiranya a good consumer kan? kih kih..
ye tepuk to CC!
