luncheon reunion

we had luncheon gathering/reunion at s3oul g@rden last weekend.. it has been months since we'd planned this occasion.. i would say it was a success.. 90% of person who'd planned to attend made themselves available on that day.. only one person couldn't make due to sickness/bad fever.. according to her, she would always fall sick after school holidays.. i would say it was due to lack of nutritions.. on the school holidays she's been working like crazy and would always skipped breakfasts and lunches.. i guess that's the major reason..

since the price of fuel has (and still) fuel-up as well, like a shooting of rocket to the moon this last couple of weeks.. i have planned not to drive.. the plan is i would go to kl on saturday and spend a night at my friend's house at @mpang.. then, we would go together the next day.. it was such a relief to be away from home once in a while (kind of evil statement.. i know..) moi met with jaja at klcc around 5pm.. we did some window shopping.. it was kind of last minute decision though.. i'm supposed to meet her at seti@wangsa.. but i thought, it's been months since my last visit.. so what the heck.. sambil menyelam minum air.. i don't know when i'll be in kl after this..

FYI i had been 'fasting' from shopping probably started 2-3 months back.. last thing i bought was a blouse from t0psh0p.. it was on 50% sale.. i had planned to buy that blouse since first laid eyes on it.. if it goes on sale.. and it did.. i'm so happy to made the purchase that day.. i even found out recently the price had been marked down further.. well, maybe the blouse was too decent.. i guess people would go for sleeveless or short sleeve version..

so, back to the luncheon story.. by 1pm everyone who had submitted their's name to come has showed up.. mostly took the train.. it's easier and convenient since some of us were not familiar with the place.. we had 2 separate line-up of tables.. 1st group who came in early consists of moi, jaja, amy's family and matun's family.. azfa joined moi and jaja later since she'd came alone.. 2nd group consists of mimi's family, iffah's family and kak emi.. there was one hiccup, i would say.. the waiter refuse to fire-up the stove because there's only 2 person on that table, kak emi and her brother who'd came in late than everyone else... i guess the waiter expected the two of them to join the rest of us.. because we had about 4 other spaces on each table which is seated for 4..

1) emi's family of 3, 1 child - 1 space
2) moi, jaja and azfa - 1 space
3) matun's family of 5 - no space
4) mimi's family of 3, 1 child - 1 space
5) iffah's family of 3, 1 child - 1 space
6) kak emi and bro, 2 persons

i guess i understand the reason why.. but the thing is the table was not separated even from us.. it was just next to each others and line-up together.. and the restaurant was not even packed with people at that time.. if 'bulan puasa' maybe la we would consider.. and what about a couple then?.. would they refuse to fire up the stove too? luckily, azfa and iffah had done a good job fighting for this.. even spoke with the manager on the phone.. there was no manager on duty at that time.. they depended solely on the workers who are not even local and expected to maintain the profit.. not forget to mention rude manners towards us all.. goshh.. tak paham gue.. so, in the end problem solved after fully forced and determination from azfa and iffah.. thanks and good job you guys..

all in all, managed to catch-up with everyone.. emi yg dalam dilema whether to further study or to follow husband relocate to s'p0re.. matun the housewife.. mimi, jaja and moi are kind of in the same boat.... bosan dgn keje.. azfa, yg same-0 same-0.. working with dad, nak kisah apa.. iffah, the dedicated gov servant.. kak emi, kaki yg bertambah sakit due to accident in past years.. and still bertahan ulang alik keje kat kl..

enjoy seeing you all and hoping that we will meet again in the near future.. including outstation people.. especially chem in taiping (the pity sick lady) and dayah in sg petani (the always with reason).. priority to meet both of you, since you guys are still single.. until next time..
