My Midvalley Day

Yesterday was My Midvalley Day. Yes, I am a girl who has My Midvalley Day. Twice a month, minimum. I can say that this is my life routine since like..... forever? Uhm... Nope. Since last March. Yes.

What is My Midvalley Day?

My Midvalley day means any day that I let myself exploring the Mid Valley Megamall. Usually I go there alone after work. That means most of My Midvalley Days fall on weekdays. And I won’t catch my komuter before 8.30p.m. So, basically I have around two and a half hour to browse the Mid Valley Megamall. Alone.

Sometimes there are exceptional cases when I had My Midvalley Day on weekend or public holiday. For these cases, I went with my friends. But these cases is so not frequent like twice a year maybe and usually we went there because the Mid Valley Megamall hosted events such as Chocolate Fair, Career Fair, Postgrads Fair, Wedding Fair, etc.

Why Midvalley Megamall?

This is the easiest question. Because I like Midvalley Megamall. For me everything I need is there. And there is no other explanation. Because when you like something, you just simply can’t describe why.

What do I do on My Midvalley Day?

Browsing the Midvalley Megamall. Duhh. But actually when My Midvalley Day falls on weekdays which is twice a month, that means I have an appointment at The Boulevard at 6.00p.m. The Boulevard is situated between the Midvalley Megamall and The Gardens. The appointment won’t be finished until 7.20p.m. After that, then only I can start visiting my favorite shops. Yes, of course I have my favorite shops. Okay, I will casually list down my so-called-habit or things-that-I-usually-do on My Midvalley Day.



5.00pm: Storm out of office and take Putra LRT to KL Sentral. From KL Sentral I take KTM Komuter to Midvalley Megamall.

5.45pm: Arrive at Midvalley Megamall. Visit the newspaper/magazine shop (I don’t know the name of the shop. Never bother to check. Maybe next time I will check the shop’s name, if I ever come to remember). This is the first shop that you will see when you enter the Midvalley from the komuter station. In front of this shop is RotiBoy. At this shop I will check my favorite magazines: Female and ePop. I will check the cover page of Female, is there are any good contents that attract me, I will buy. But for ePop, I will buy straight away. When ePOP is out of stock, or the new issue is not come out yet, I will go… berasap berasap berasap~

5.48pm: Stop by Guardian. I always prefer Guardian than Watson. Check if there is any special offer for product that I use, or just buy anything that I need.

5.50pm: Make a quick stop at Vincci. Check: if there is anything nice for me and if the anything-nice-for-me is on sale. If there is, make a mental note to come back here after the appointment.

5.55pm: Stop by MPH. Go to Comic Section and check if there is any new good comic has come out. If there is, and if there is allocation to buy comics that day, then take and buy. But if there is no allocation, then memorize the title of the new good comics and make a mental note to ask my sisters to borrow them from friends at school. Then go to my favorite section: Language and let myself drool over the Korean text books, dictionaries and phrase books. Fight the urge to buy them by reminding myself that I haven’t finish studying the last text book that I have bought a few months before.

6.00pm: The Boulevard for the appointment. Greet everyone, let myself settle down and indulge.

7.20pm: Stop by Vincci again. Try the shoes that I have spotted before. Walking around Vincci with the shoes while checking around if there are other nice shoes. And if the one that I tried is perfect, I put it on the cashier counter and queue to pay. Oh when speaking about shoes, the one that I first spotted always is the perfect one. But if they don’t have that perfect shoes in my size, sigh, I will go… berasap berasap berasap~ (Note: Yesterday I bought a pair of new shoes! It’s a denim peep-toe platform. My first peep-toe platform ever.) Sometimes, after visiting Vincci, I will visit Hush Puppies as well. Hush Puppies is just in front of the Vincci. 

7.40pm: To Surau for Maghrib prayer.

7.55pm:  Browse into Jusco supermarket. Go to sushi section, drool myself and eat all the sushies with my eyes.

8.15pm: Go to my favorite outlet in front of the Jusco Supermarket: Mint De Tri Kimbab. Buy one tuna kimbab and soy drink.

Kimchi Chiken is the best-sellers but because of I don't eat chicken, so Tuna is my favorite. (picture taken from google image)



8.30pm: If I’m not buying kimbab, I will stop by the newspaper/magazines shop just before the komuter station to buy bread and juice. Then heading to komuter station, buy ticket and wait for komuter to come. While waiting for komuter, I will eat my kimbab or bread and read the magazines that I have bought.

10.00pm: Reach Seremban.



So, that is all about My Midvalley Day. Thank you for reading my standard-six-type-of-essay.

thebiggestsky first time blogging

Okay, Hi! This is my first time writing in a blog, so I don't know what topic should I compose. Okay I lied. Gosh, I'm giving bad impression on my first entry! 

I do have blogs before, but I have deleted the blogs not long after a few posts. But I have been wanting to start blogging again since last year but I delayed it until recently I found several blogs that give me inspiration to start blogging again. I found blogging have a lot of advantages. I can express everything inside here freely and honestly. I have a lot in me to share with the world but I always kept them to myself. Okay don't get me wrong. I am not a biggie as to say that I have a lot to share with the world. But I mean I intend to blog to share my humble experiences, thoughts and obsessions. And when I am posting it in the blog which can be viewed by anyone in the world, it's like I'm sharing my story with the world. Nahh why should I bother to explain this. And I am not that stupid to anticipate anyone to read my blog. But if you ever stop at my blog, I thank you. If you ever stop at my blog and read the entry, I thank you. If you ever stop at my blog, read the entry and you like it, I thank you.   

So, yes I will be determined this time to constantly blogging and not deleting this blog after a few posts. 

Basically, this blog will be everything about me. As stated on the description of this blog, the story that I will tell here is everything about me and the two worlds that I'm living in. Anyone might wonder what the heck is the two worlds that I'm mentioning here. Okay, I plan not to tell about it on this post. Next post maybe.

Before I end this entry, a little bit about thebiggestsky. Why am I so fond of the word thebiggestsky? I got this word from a quote, "The biggest sky is always behind your back". Oh it is actually a phrase, but I made it a word so that's why here we have thebiggestsky. I got this quote from the korean drama: Goong, whereby this quote is written at the back of a photo of the scenery of an ocean with a background of the big sky. Okay, there is a lot of "of" there. But never mind. Actually that is from the scene where Shin Goon sitting alone with his bare feet at his secret place which is one of an attic of the palace reminiscing his days with Hyo Rin. And at that time he feels a little down with all the expectation that has been put on him from everyone. Oh okay, I'm not doing review for this drama but I just want to describe how I get this word thebiggestsky. So, from then, I always rely on this quote whenever whenever. I mean whenever. Okay I know that is so not understandable. I will explain. "The biggest sky is always behind your back", no matter how low I feel or how good I feel the biggest sky is always behind my back. It means whenever there is no one to support me, to cheer me up, to share the happiness with me, but when I look at my back, the biggest sky is always there. So why do I bother to feel low at all. Oh I forgot to explain that in my case, I regard my family and good friends who never stop from supporting me all my way, as my thebiggestsky. So I do cherish my thebiggestskies, and I do hope that I can be their thebiggestsky as well.

Oh I never thought my first entry will be this long. So, till we meet on the next entry :D
