Certain stuffs are meant to last for a long time...

ada brg2 yg memang tahan lama...ada yg senang nak dispose/buang..depending on jenis brg..

so sambil mengemas2 dressing table..susun2, lap2 buang abuk etc...
ni antara my treasured item....jewellery box made of thick&heavy glasses/mirror....unik pada pandangan mata MZ sbb ada corak ukiran gak kat mirror/glasses tu

all the way from notts...so dh bertahun2 gak usianya, sbb MZ balik msia from notts for good in april 2011..now dh tahun 2018..so dh 7 tahun gitu...

i still remember..memang berkenan kat benda ni masa 1st time tgk kat display shelves kat supermarket Sainsbury (lebih kurang aeon kat msia)..kira mcm love at first sight...dh tak ingat exact price...rasanya round GBP30.. so sbb hargaya tak berapa murah gak..so setakat usha2 (mcm tanda nak beli gitu)..setiap kali gi Sainsbury MZ akan tgk benda ni...sbb kdg2 ada sale..tp this thing tak de nya jd sale item ker apa kan...
MZ memang kerap gak pegi Sainsbury tu sbb suka gak shopping2 kat situ (ada few sainsbury kat area notts)... selain brg2 yg cute2, affordable, selesa ...the best part of shopping kat sainsbury..boleh dpt loyalty points..sama mechanism mcm aeon points kat msia..
so gigih gak MZ collect points..kalau tak silap...sempat lah redeem few stuff sepanjang2 dok notts tu..
and akhirnya...rasanya few months/few weeks sblm balik msia..MZ gi redeem jewellery box ni guna points (equivalent to cash)..so MZ top up sikit jer cash utk dpt beli benda ni..dh tak ingat exactly how much I top up/paid with cash...roughly 10-20 GBP (if not mistaken lah)

then next challenge...kena make sure packing betul2 agar tak pecah sbb MZ post brg2 via cargo---masuk kotak then ship naik kapal..time nak balik msia for good tu kan..semua brg masuk kapal laaa
syukur...selamat sampai benda ni kat msia tanpa pecah (ada gak few items MZ yg pecah ie mangkuk pyrex--tu yg MZ ingat lah)...

tu jer lah citernya..
mengimbas kenangan plak hahaha
dan kenangan tu tetap segar sbb ari2 tgk dan guna benda ni yg sememangnya ada kat atas almari solek dlm master bedroom MZ...MZ letak brooch dan lipstick/lipliner dlm jewellery box ni

salam hari sabtu
now nak kena start buat keje (edit paper) sbb dh overdue #sigh
