.: Tiring Tired Ikea Day :.

actually...this morning...me n Chia are supposed to go to LV n the bank to get something done...but eventually...we ended up going to Ikea...

after getting ready everything...shower...change...cleaning...packing....off to Ikea we go....we actually thinking of bring aig luggage to go Ikea to carry all our things...cos...the Ikea here is different from Malaysia...cos they dun give bags one...no plastic bags...we have to bring our one recycle bays or paper bags to carry the things back...tat' why we wanted to bring a big luggage at first to put everything into it...but in the end..we din bring...cos scared they dun let us in...heheheh....we took the tube....for about half an hour....then reached Tottenham Hale...haha...guess wat...we heard that there's free bus shuttle from the tube station to Ikea...and...both of us din know where to take the free bus shuttle...thus we went walking all around here n there to llo sofr the station...hahaha...finally found it...and both of us...squeezed into the shuttle...and yay...Ikea here we come...heehe...and we arrived at around 1.45pm....

after shopping at the display area...we went for lunch at the Ikea Restaurant...hehe...in Ikea Restaurant...of cos my try the Swedish Meatball la...but cos i wasn't having good appetite...thus i'd the mini set meal...hehehehehe......and Chia had pasta....which she think it does not taste nice...hehe...as for my meatball..it's different from the one in Malaysia...they deep fried the meatball..as compared to Malaysia...the boiled it...if i did not remember wrongly...hehehehe....


.:Chia and the "taste-less" pasta:.

.:my kid's meal Swedish Meatball set..on blue plate somemore..hehe:. .:Chia trying to drink the Ikea Cola-refillable with fork n spoon..wat's my sis trying to do huh:.

after makan...we continued our journey in Ikea..to shop the markethall and the warehouse...and guess wat...when were at the markethall..we saw a lady...shopping with a big luggage....yerr....we should had brought ours too....and now...we have to carry all the things...with our hands...instead of putting in the luggage and pull / drag...picked up our stuffs...and headed towards the check-out counter...so wat we bought huh??...wow...impressively lots of stuffs.....we bought 2 metal cabinet 148cm height weighing 7 kg each...2 wooden shoe rack....2 big storage box...1 big dustbin with lid...1 mini dustbin with toiletteries..2 pack of light bulbs...1 set of quilt cover with 4 pillor case...1 metal stand...hooks...metal tray for kitchen...some files holder..all thee things filled the big Ikea trolley full...and...yes...i filled out both mine n Chia's hand full too....see...this is how we packed the things we bought...

.:all the things we bought...packed into one large DKNY paper bag...one large LV paper bag..one big bin...and the 2 metal cabinet nad carry:.

carrying all these heavy things...we went to the free shuttle bus station...and oh no...the next bus is at 6.00pm while it's only 5.15pm now...how??...thus we walked all the way to the gate to the public buss station...and...we squeezed ourselves into the 192 bus heading to the tube station....finally...then continue carrying the stuffs into the tube...all the way back to Warren Street station...and walked all the way with the heavy things across a few streets and back home..usually..this journey from the station back home is pretty short...and today...it seemed so long...oh my....hehe...during the walk home...some passer-by offered to help..only if he has an extra hand...as he was alsi carrying a box full...hahahaha...and we reached home finally...hahaha...we dun have the strengths to carry the things anymore...so wat we did??..we started to drag them in the lift...and up into our apartment...hahahahahahahahahahaha.....should see our exhausted...very exhausted look...hahahahahahaha....yay!!!...we are home finally !!!

at home...we quickly get the shoe rack n cabinet assembled n fixed...and the we got to clean up the superbly messy store room....while Chia n Kart busy cleaning...me..have to prepare dinner for me n Chia...cos Kart ate ad...so i have to cook for 2..we are having fried rice & vege tonight...but we do not have anymore eggs n vege left..thus..i have to go down to the Sainsbury to buy them....while they keep on packing...hehehe....so here's how our dinner look like...it didn't taste tat bad after all..kekekeke...cos we both finished everything...hehehehehehehehehee....

.: fried rice with "lap cheong" & mushrooms:. .:boiled pepper Romaine lettuce soup:.
.:our dinner for the night..a very simple one..hehe:.

after eating...Chia continue packing the superb messy store room...thanks to my bro..kekeke..while me...busy in the kichen again..busy cleaning up n washing all the utensils...hehehehe....when we are done...we continue watch out Taiwanese drama 命中注定我爱你...while...folding the plastic bags...dun ask me how many....cos it's very the many many...no not many,..it's much....after folding whole nite...we still have another box of it not done...imagine how many r there...hehehehe...after tat...we both off to shower...and off to bed....
