Haircut

Apparently Groupon is not the only discount deal website.  There are others and one of them is StreetDeal.my. 

Paid only RM88 instead RM438 for rebonding/hair colouring/perming + Hair Treatment + Professional Haircut + Wash + Blow (any hair length) at Cleo Hair Design Studio, E-0-05, Pusat Perdagangan Kuchai, No. 2, Jln 1/127, Off Jln Kuchai Lama, 58200 Kuala Lumpur. 

Redemption period is from November 11, 2011 to January 11, 2012.  It's new year and I decided to cut my long hair.  I kept it long for far too long so what better time to make a change than the new year :) Without appointment, I just went there on Saturday, January 7, 2012 and got my hair cut and coloured.

The result... as usual, my black hair just refused to give way to other colours... so everyone just commented on the short hair but not the colour... hmmmmm

Till next week, let's change hair colour again

Visiting new mother in HKL

Last Friday, January 6,2012 at 11.02 pm, my colleague gave birth to a healthy baby boy at Hospital Kuala Lumpur.
Hospital Kuala Lumpur commonly known as HKL has 49 different departments and units including administration & finance department, pharmaceutical department, training and research, 27 clinical departments and 12 clinical support services.  HKL is now the largest hospital under Ministry of Health and is considered to be one of the biggest in Asia.  It is a government tertiary referral hospital with 83 wards and 2,302 beds. 

We visited her the next day at 12.30pm.  The visiting hours for Saturdays and Sundays are from 12.30 pm to 7.30 pm whereas on weekdays, from 12.30pm to 2pm and from 4.30pm to 7.30pm.  This was my first visit to HKL. 

We didn't come empty-handed, of course :) We bought her Eu Yan Sang Herbal Bath for post-natal ~ hope she will use it ~  It is made from herbal ingredients and is specially formulated for mothers during their post-natal period as it helps to expel wind, relieve tension and stress.
My colleague was lying on the bed with her new baby next to her bed. Needless to say the new mother is completely exhausted, overwhelmed and greeted by round the clock checkups by nurses and need to rest and recover so we left after an hour. 

Till next week, congratulations to the new parents on the arrival of their new bundle of joy!

Celebrating Christmas 2011 and mourning on new year 2012

"On the twelfth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Twelve drummers drumming,
Eleven pipers piping,
Ten lords a-leaping,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds, 
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree!"

Tomorrow will be the twelfth day of Christmas and the fifth day of the new year 2012.

Christmas is the season of giving ~.^
and most importantly, Christmas is all about spending time with family.  This time around, I spent it with my grandmother, mother, sisters, brother, uncles, aunts and cousins.

As for welcoming the new year, I did exactly the same as previous years.  I just sit back home and watched tv on new year eve and spent the new year day at the airport catching the flight back.

On the first day of this new year, I received a devastating news: my grandmother has passed away. I may not be there with my family as we mourn her loss and make the arrangements to lay her to rest but my thoughts are. 

Till next week, may her soul rest in peace.
