Before I came back from Bintulu, I actually suggested to make
a donation box with a note on it saying
"Please donate, Carine needs a big Christmas present!!"
Was in progress actually.
On Christmas night, my mother asked me to throw the rubbishes
around the house to the big bin located opposite my house.
I did as told.
Coincidentally my dad was enjoying the moonlight with a can of beer
and half body naked outside the corridor.
So when I passed by, I told my dad,
"Hey dad, I want an iPad."
As usual, my dad will ask,
"How much is it?"
And because the kitchen rubbish was a little bit disgusting,
it leaked out the liquid of everything mixed together,
so I told him that I've already made a proposal, and that I'll show it to him shortly.
So when I was on the way back, he asked one more time
"How much is it?"
And I told him,
"It's around 2k, dad."
Surprisingly he told me to go get one the next day,
and if his credit card was still working then the iPad is mine, if it's not, then forget it.
So the next day, which was on Boxing Day, I went to Maxis Center and tried out the credit card. I didn't expect that it would work but it did! I was so happy and I called my dad,
"Hey dad, IT WORKED!"
Then he said...
"Merry Christmas, Daughter."
I still remember that day was 20th December 2013, also my mother's birthday.
I came back without the knowledge of any of my family members except for my aunt,
my sister and few of my friends. Edward was of them.
Once I arrived KL Sentral which was around 3pm, he fetched me from there, straight to Midvalley.
Because my mother's birthday dinner was at 8pm so that's why I have to stay outside until then.
We ate lunch, watched movie, got my ears pierced and shopped awhile..
Finally at 7.30pm I received a call from my aunt. She said they went to the night market in Taman Desa and were about to arrive home in 20 mins. So I rushed home with a chocolate cake.
Mission accomplished was when my mom got surprised and cried the moment she saw me. Feel the love people haha.
Love that day very much! :)
Happy belated birthday mom!
Last Tuesday, I went to Genting Highlands with 2 of my aunts and 2 of my sisters, we decided to celebrate Christmas Eve there. It was a good one.
5 of us drove a car up to Genting to enjoy the atmosphere of Christmas. The Christmas decorations up there were terrifically beautiful. I couldn't believe my eyes and the fact that I was actually there to witness one of the most amazing Christmas decorations in Malaysia.
We took lots of pictures, with the beautifully decorated trees, santas, reindeers and with the performers. They were all great singers. They helped in bringing up the atmosphere of Christmas with their great voice. You can feel the joyfulness instantly when the kids and the adults started singing and dancing altogether at the lobby of the hotel.
After dinner, we went to walk around first world and stuck with Starbucks coffee, as usual.
The temperature up there were unsually cold. We had to hide ourselves in our jackets.
After the coffee session, we went back up to our hotel and ended our
Christmas Eve with a big smile on our face :) ♥
