Merry Christmas, folks! How did I spend my Christmas Day? Having a shopping spree with Emak! Jealous? Hehehe, don't be! Shopping spree would have been a girl's wildest dream...but not today. Today, we shopped for inventory for my mother's petit grocery store, Nel Grocers, as I like to call it.
A trip each to Pasar Kampung Baru to buy cigarettes, Pasar Chow Kit to buy eggs, and several trips to Carrefour, to buy almost everything else. We wanted to go to Topzeller and Makro for more things but we didn't manage to.
Hehehe...my biceps must have grown more muscular in a day carrying heavy bulky items like crates of 1.5 litre mineral water bottles, several dozens of 2kg sugar packets, 2 bags of 10kg Beras Basmathi Mogul, 10 bags of 2kg Beras Basmathi Biasa. Not to mention at least 20 kg of chicken parts, and 10 kgs of packet drinks. These are only half of the things we bought!
Bah, I haven't mentioned to you about loading stuff into my car and unloading them. Gosh, this is hard work!
One of the things I enjoy doing shopping with Emak is that I get to learn new roads, short cuts and backroads almost everytime. She's good at roughing it out, and she drives like a rally driver (hehehe...would have won Paris Drakkar Rally!) - one of the reasons I get nervous when she drives my brand new Hyundai Getz!
