High Maintenance Girl?!

Dear Diary,

Continued from Petaling Street/Chinatown, Kuala Lumpur, Mar 2011

This was Zarra’s first time going out on our own. I mean without her Abah which translated into walking and taking public transportation instead of sitting comfortably in a car. Oh my, I found out this little girl of mine is easily “tired” unlike her elder brother. Tak tahan lasak betul! Halfway through, she didn’t want to walk one step more and asked to be dukung instead.

She’s easily bored too! If what I was doing did not interest her, she’d pester me to go home. To think that she was the one who was very excited to follow me. Remind me not to bring her along next time. Totally the opposite happened when it came to things that she likes. Then, she’d forget all about me. A case in point, when we window shopped at Sungai Wang Plaza.

These days Zarra is into make-up, clothes and shoes. While I was busy talking on the phone, my little princess was also busy. She was busy trying out cosmetics at the make-up counters. It must have been like heaven for her seeing all sorts of cosmetics nicely arranged for her to try one after another. To my amazement, she knows what goes where. Eye shadow – eyes, lipstick – lip, compact – face, and blusher – cheeks etc. She is one observant girl because I never teach her art of applying make-up. Luckily, at that time all salespersons were too busy cleaning and tidying their counters to notice Zarra (they just started business).

At another shop, she tried on clothes and picked out shoes for herself. As if… She was busy “shopping” like a pro. Look at all these pictures. Bear in mind that I didn’t ask her to pose for me. All her acts were based on her instinct alone.
