March 11, 2007: What's in the Shopping Bag ...

Hi everyone,

It's a hot and dry Sunday here today. I went out to Berjaya Times Square to collect the flight tickets to Tioman Island and also did some shopping .... which I have not done since .... December or was it January?

It wasn't a shopping spree, just buying things that are needed:

1. After collecting the tickets, I went to Borders to look for book that I promised my five years old grand nephew. Actually it was his birthday few days ago and I've forgotten about it. So, when I spoke to my niece over the phone yesterday, he chipped in just to tell me that he has finished all the cake . Oops! I know I've to pay the price for forgetting his birthday. lol. When asked what he wanted for his birthday, he said 'controlled robot' (I am not sure what it means - but I think he wanted a toy - and he has a lot at home). Instead of agreeing with him, I asked wheter it is okay if I buy him a book. He said he wanted a book on robot. lol. But, I couldn't find any book on robot for pre-school children at Borders. After about 30 minutes searching for it (amazing how I enjoyed flipping through the children book , I found something closer "Uncover T.Rex"and I hope he likes it, because I know he likes dinosaur too ....

2. I also bought another book, "My Sleepover Bag" for my 2-year old grand niece who will be celebrating her birthday in April. Then I went to my favorite sections and bought "The Digital Photographer's A-Z" and "The Lonely Planet Story".

3. Then I dropped by at Goggles and look for a cargo pant. Couldn't find the color that I wanted, but settled down with a white three quarter cargo pant and long cargo pant - khaki. And that's for my coming holiday!!!!

4. Last but not least - 'a dress' ....... that was not planned for .... lol

So, that's how my Sunday goes! How's yours?

Love - Larra
