Shopping with Mom

 
Sis is on a 2 weeks leave from work so yippiee. This means we could take a break for shopping. It’s the festive season after all and the clothes they have on display during CNY is really hideous so it’ll be smart to shop early.

Unfortunately mom had it all planned out. Woke us up so early in the morning, i half knocked myself out on the bedroom door. She insisted that we help her get YTL vouchers from the annual shareholder meeting again. So well alright, we were free and the vouchers are worth losing our few minutes of extra sleep.

After elbowing all the old people in the hotel ballroom we got out with 1k worth of dining vouchers. Nice work, pat our back.

Mom said i look good in the Forever 21 hat, so i insisted she tried it on and we took a pic :)
 

We head on to Pavilion after that.

It’s been a while since we went shopping with mom. I can’t remember the last time i went shopping with her. I think it was before i got into college when i start buying my own clothes and hang out with my friends then after that i started to work meaning even less shopping time with mom.

I kind of miss picking out clothes with mom… even though she disagree with half of my selections. LOL.

That’s me hugging my mom :))
 

I find it rather amusing that my sis and mom kept disagreeing on the skirt or top in the shop. Sis was really frustrated and fuming. Kind of reminds me of me when i was young.

Someday sis will understand. Mom is just opinionated and “kan cheong”. It comes with age. So be patient.

Personalized Children’s Plates

 
As i walked the aisle of the departmental store, the boyfriend smacked my hands for the umpteenth time. I was having a hard time deciding a gift for a friend’s new born baby so she would be so mesmerized by the smashing present that she’ll graciously bestow upon me the honor of being the child’s godmother. Yeah, i’m so desperate like that.

While trying to spot the perfect gift, i was carelessly scratching my head each time i saw something and my fickle mind goes to work. In the end i gave up and bought an elephant-print baby blanket. Lame, i know but why is it so difficult to find a gift for such a tiny human being?!

Then i got back and mindlessly search for some gift idea on the internet – it’s always good to plan ahead and maybe i’ll find something fantastic for the toddler’s 1st birthday just to make up for the lame blanket. After many similarly lame suggestions from some website, i came upon a page that has a wide range of products and gift ideas for kids and mommies too! Check out the cute name too, Posy Lane. Like that’s so adorable right? They have toddler backpack, stickers, nap mats and what do you know – baby blankets that are nicer than the one i bought. Great.

Next time i’ll be the kid’s favorite aunt coz i’ll get the coolest gift for her, a personalized children’s plates from Posy Lane. Even when she’s eating she’ll be reminded of me! I’m such a great godmother.

Happy Birthday Dearest Mom

 
It’s mommy’s birthday. Happy Birthday Mom!

She’s going to be 58 today.

Omg, she’s so gonna kill me for telling her age LOL. Hey, i don’t think 58 is old anyways. Mom is more fashionable than me. She’s gone and worn leggings with her long top while i’m still trying to grasp the idea of how leotard-like leggings has become so fashionable. While i admire girls wearing them and looking good wearing them, i still shun the idea of wearing leggings out of the house. Not mom though. She looks so cute under the green top and leggings. God i wanna bear hug her :P.

I always bring her out for a nice dinner in a restaurant but i’m dead, dead broke (coz i gotta save up for my medical expenses and also for our family trip to Bangkok soon) so no dinner this year. A small celebration at home with a nice cake will do i guess.

Mom doesn’t seem to mind. See why i love her? :P
