Juz had a "crash course" for my Surah exam...n as expected, didn't go well. Having jitters now. Thinking if it would be better for me to opt for the Nov schedule. Advise fr my elder brother n Hafiz. Sigh...juz wait n c how's my progress by Thurs or Fri. Da main reason y I wanna take it this month is because next semester's modules are tough ones!
Anyways, yest was a GREAT Saturday! I had a very short 1 1/2 hrs tuition with my students. Since their exams are juz ard the corner, we had a study skills workshop for them. My colleague was handling workshop, so juz sat there listening to her n assisting her when necessary. I was supposed to stay until 6pm, but I seriously tot it was only till 1.30pm, so I've made plans. Luckily, I was excused!
Headed off to town to meet Wenda after tuition. I've booked 3 tix for "50 First Dates" at 4.30pm, Cineleisure. Great reviews fr movie critics...so was really dying to watch that show. Adam Sandler n Drew Barrymore.
Wenda was late..too tired from work, so she went home to rest first. So, I hang ard at Kinokuniya, Cineleisure and Heeren. Pretty crowded n nothing much to see.
At about 4.20pm, we were ready to head for the movie! We went in right on time, but suprisingly the show started. Ok, we came in slightly later...like 3 mins late only!
This is such an unforgettable romantic comedy! Adam Sandler plays Henry Roth, a marine biologist, and Drew Barrymore plays Lucy Whitmore. He falls deeply in love with Lucy. But he aint got no clue that she will forget him the very next day.
Lucy suffers from a rare brain disorder that wipes her memory clean every single night. She will go thru da same thing everyday...wear the same outfit, have breakfast, read the same book, wish his dad Happy Birthday, etc...
So, in his unconditional love for Lucy, Henry has to concoct new ways to make her fall in love with him everyday. Awww....dun we wish for a guy like dat..but poor chap!
After the movie, we had dinner at Cahaya! Yucky...not a gd dinner at all. Lena whom juz recovered, barely touched her Ipoh Hor Fun...I of course didnt finish my Hor Fun...and Wenda didnt like her wanton soup. It was tasteless...I think I can do better! Heehee!
While "window-shopping", I dragged the gals into "Melon" a shoe outlet. Wow!! I simply fall in luv with the cute, brown, Mary Jane shoes...and the best thing is it's only $19! Og course, I grabbed it. And as the rule goes, the fren must follow. So, Wenda bought a pair of ethnic flip flops.
We walked to CK Tang and Wisma, and we were already tired. Where has all that will power disappear to? We used to always walk from Far East Plaza to PS. We decided to rest our feet at Coffee Club. The gals were hungry so they ordered Chicken Wrap. The latte wasnt as nice as Starbuck's though.
We sat there chit chatting away...about our dreams and aspirations. Lena kept saying she has to do something for herself fast. She's turning 28 this coming 3rd May. We envy her for her youthful looks!
Talked abt holidays preparation...It's been a long time since the 3 of us went for a good holiday 2gether. This time ard we are going separate ways. Lena will be flying to Bangkok (I want to go!!!) during the May Day weekend and end June, Wenda n me will be flying off to Aussie..diff parts of Aussie that is. It will be winter in Australia...so the 2 of us turned to Lena for winter-clothing supply! Heehee! By the way Lena, I think Wenda will not want that Mickey Mouse ear muffs!
At the midst of enjoyment, we were chased away by Coffee Club staff at 10.30pm(twice!). And with Wenda ard, each of us took a cab home!
I really enjoyed my weekend..spending time with my dear frens.
