"It's a best day ever!" He said.

Yesterday, my 10 year-old brother, Philip, and I went out for some fun. We planned about it the night before and talked about it since afternoon. So yesterday, at about 10.30 am, as my parents went to my amangboru's martupol party in Wisma Jaya Puri, my brother and I went to Gramedia Gajah Mada.

We went to stationary area first. Philip loves Mister Maker so much. He likes making things. He loves drawing. So i took him to the art and craft material area. He looked so happy and very excited. It seemed that he wanted to buy everything in there and made things by them. So we went upstairs, craving for art and craft books.

But as we saw books, we almost forgot about our mission, buying art and craft book. My brother spent his time most in the comics area, art and craft area, and knowledge for children area while i spent my time in novel area and in songbooks area. Sometimes we saw each other and laughed. Then we picked some books and compared. Finally, after had read so many good books and laughed a lot, we decided to buy two art and craft books. One book used felt clothes and the other used origami papers. We were so excited to make them all.

By lunch time, we went out, talking about eating in Sun Plaza. Then my brother looked at Dunkin Donuts Cafe and asked for orange juice. So i bought one regular size for him. He looked happy and by looking at his happy face, i felt more than happy.

We went to Sun Plaza by becak mesin. It cost Rp 8000 to get us there (I still think that it is too expensive *sigh). Philip shared his orange juice with me. I didn't want it since i can't stand cold drink too much, but I took a sip anyway. It made him smile.

As we arrived at Sun Plaza, we discussed about where we should eat. Then after had talked for a while, we decided to eat in Fountain because he said he wanted to drink ice cream. But when we were there, he didn't order for any ice cream. He ordered mie and juice. Then he asked for my cream soup and orange milk shake. After that, we ordered chocolate cake. Our favourite :)

My elder sister, Lini, called us and told us that she was in Sun Plaza herself. She had lunch with her friend. She came to us and had chit chat for a while. She said she would join us at 4pm, right after the office hour.
So after having a fantastic lunch, Philip and I went to Gramedia.

We read so many funny books, art and craft books, story books, and knowledge books. We spent about 3 hours there. You know, when we enjoy things, it seems that time runs so fast. My younger sister, Iyo, texted me and said that she would join us by the time our parents came from Jaya Puri. She reached Gramedia Sun Plaza in a jiffy and met us. We were so exciting. And not long after that, Lini joined us.

It was so fantastic since we seldom go out together because Lini and Philip are busy with work and school. They only have saturday and sunday to have fun. But most of the time they spent those two precious days by spending time with themselves like sleeping all day or playing PSP or computer game. *sigh

So after passing time in Gramedia, Lini asked us to watch new movie in theater. It was "Shrek, forever after".
We bought the tickets and bought some drinks in hypermart.

At 5:30pm, we entered studio 3. It was a very entertaining and inspiring movie. Reminds us all that we should give thanks to all we have. And i got a note to self that true love kiss is really exist :D and i start thinking that if all dreamworks movie said it is true, than it can be true :D

After movie, we ate dinner in Mr. Sanders' place. Philip was starving. I could see that by the way he ate :D

Then we went home by becak mesin again as i didn't drive since the first start this morning.
It was a surprised that we could get in one becak. In such a small place, there were 4 big tampubolons :D

But that fun was not over yet, Philip and I still made animals toys from the felt clothes and talked about the things we will make for tomorrow and the next day. He looked so exciting till forgot that it was already 11 pm. I was so tired. But looking at Philip's exciting face, i pushed myself to make more animals toys. Then he finally realized that i was so sleepy.

We put our art and craft on the round table and make an appointment to make more the next day.
Philip said to me," It's a best day ever!"
I was so touched when he said that because what i did to him was only one simple thing. It was only reading in gramedia, buying two art and craft books, eating out, watching movie, and making art and craft with him. But he said he was so happy that day and thought that it was a perfect day.
I hugged Philip and gave a note to self that i will spend more quality time with people i love so much.
