Ma'salama Dubai


It means good bye in Middle East Arab language. I'm saying goodbye to Dubai today as I will be hopping into the Malaysian aircraft at 6.50 local time here. Now it's 9am and I'm packing my stuff to make sure every single piece of my shopping can be fitted into my Delsey. Unfortunately it can't and Mum and Dad would be helping me to carry a few items home. Well, what can you say for a shopaholic like me? The backup plan was to put all the heavy items into my hand carry but then again I don't want to overload my dear Samsonite. It's a tricky situation. Thus I plan to overload my check in luggage with another 2 kgs over the allowed weight.


Dad's colleague would be coming to pick us up at 11am and head to Dubai City for my last round of shopping at Mall of the Emirates. I wanted to have my last bite of Krispy Kreme before flying off. I know I'm being sarcastic, but it's true. I wanted my KK! Maybe just a few hours at MOE before they send me to the airport at 4pm because I wanted to check in earlier to shop inside. Lol....


The two weeks here had passed by so quickly even without me noticing. I spent almost a few days lying at my dad's place doing nothing except eating, online, reading and watching TV. It felt great. I woke up at noon and sleep by 9pm. It's like sleeping to make up for the past 3 years that I've been working hard. Today I bid farewell to my parents. Mum will be flying back in Dec and followed by Dad in January. I will miss them and miss Mum taking care of everything from cooking to laundry. Back to reality after tomorrow.


I hope to come here again as everytime I'm here, there bound to be new things and new structures. Mum said if Dad were to work here for another 1-2 more years, she would fly us all down again next year in December for the big sale. Woohoo....
