A Homemaker’s Diary

I went out today to run some errand and I can’t believe how hot it was outside. I was thinking I should be grateful that I don’t have to work outside in the heat like certain people, those selling food at the Pasar Ramadhan, the workers who have to trim grass at the roadside, you know all those people who I passed by while driving.

Sometimes we tend to take for granted the luck and good fortune that we have in life. We get angry easily about menial things, we throw tantrum towards life when we thought that life is not treating us fair. But we forget about others who live a lesser life than us.

I should be grateful that even though it was hot, I have a car to drive and never have to sit by the roadside waiting for bus or worse to walk on foot to my destination.

How would you like to sleep on a pillow with the pictures of your loved ones? For those young at heart and very much in love, this will be like the ultimate romantic idea to be as close as when you fall asleep with the special person you adore so much..heh!

With Vision Bedding, this idea could be a reality. From photo blanket, to photo bedding and photo pillow, the new dye technology will let your favorite pictures be immortalized into the fabric yet it won’t fade. You can wash and use the blanket like a normal fabric blanket. What you’ll get is a soft, superb high-quality personalized picture blanket perfect as personal use or gift for someone who knows to appreciate the finer things in life.

Or if you want to brag about the new stylish photo pillow, you can opt to have the pictures dyed onto throw pillow covers and later you can decorate your sofa with those pillows. Nice suggestion for home improvement, huh?

I took sometimes last night to clear up some mess in the room downstairs and in the kitchen. So after all the washing and cleaning, I decided to stay awake and watched whatever on the cable channel. While flipping through the channels, there was a movie titled The Wedding Date.

It was about a girl, Kat who has to attend her half-sister’s wedding and faced her ex-fiance who dumped her before her own wedding and yet happened to be their best friend. So in order to save face, she decided to hire a male escort, Nick through Yellow Pages to pretend to be her lover at the wedding.

The escort guy was the one who acted in My Best Friend’s Wedding. I really like his style (in the film) and I think now I understand why certain people are willing to spend a lot of money to get an escort service.

As Nick said in the movie, it’s more than the sex. It’s like having a charming guy who devoted his attention and drool upon your existence, thinking you are the best person in the world to be with and not shy to let others see how he feels about it. Of course in the end, Kat and Nick fall in love and Nick decided to let go of his escort career.

I wonder if there is any real man in this world who is really that charming..huhu!

We did many out of the routine things today. First we went to a friend’s house for break fast and after sometimes staying and chatting, I decided it was time to go home. The couple has a 2-plus year old boy and I was saying to the little boy that he should come along with us because we were planning to go to Jusco. That time it was around 9:15pm. And the funny thing was the boy actually wanted to go with us, despite the fact that he never follow anyone anywhere except his family members and relatives.

So off we went to Jusco playing at the arcade till almost 10pm. Hubby said it was like a sneak preview what it would be like if we have a child of our own. Luckily the good boy wanted to go home even though he still wanted to play with the choo choo train at Jusco entrance..(I told him the mall was closing so we have to go there again next time..haha!) He was so happy and jumping up and down, chatting and babbling all kind of small kid’s talk. It was a great feeling to make a child so happy..heh!

We sent him home to his parents and even the parents were amazed that he behaved so good with us. Well, Imran, next time we go again and play your favourite choo choo train, OK!
