Soak Your Stress Away
Recently, I had the pleasure of staying at the Le Meridian Kota Kinabalu hotel, for one night, after my brother's wedding reception ended. The room was GREAT! We were given the Starwood Preferred Guest Room on the executive floor so it was more spacious than the standard rooms. The husband and kids loved it.. although the kids loved my mom's suite even more. LOL! :) So thank you, Le Meridian!
So after the whole wedding reception was over, a group of us continued the party at the hotel lounge and had something to eat (I had not had anything to eat the whole time running around making sure the event ran smoothly and was STARVING by then). By the time the whole wedding party and crew, including the bride and groom, left the lounge, it was already 2 am and I was BEAT!!
When I went up to the room, I saw the hubs and children already snuggled into bed and soooo wanted to join them. But I was still in my full makeup, hair updo and wedding attire so I thought I'll take a quick shower.
Ever since I became a mother, I am more of a jump through the shower quick and fast kind of person. Most of you mothers may agree with me that we just don't have that much time to have a long hot shower.. what more to say a long leisurely soak in the bathtub.
It's not that I'm unhygienic or I don't like long baths, but it drives me nuts, not knowing what the kids are up to and just hoping against hope that in the 5 mins that I shower, they're STILL stuck on the couch watching Tom trying to catch Jerry or Dora trying to find her way in the wilderness.
It's better when the husband is around so he can keep an eye on the kids while I take a bath. Sometimes it's a luxury just to be able to.. I know most moms just go without a bath some days until their kids are asleep. Don't laugh. True story.
ANYWAYS (back to my story), when I was getting ready to take my shower, I remembered how much my fellow blogger Mariuca LOVES hotel bathtubs and decided to take a cue from her and have a looooong hot soak in the bathtub.
I think I stayed in there until I "pruned" up. :P Okay, honestly, I refilled the bath when the water got cold. LOL! :) When I was done, I could feel my tiredness and stress just ebb away from me and go down the drain with the water and I swear just being in that tub can get rid of acne problems, if you have any, that is.
Oh, it felt soooooooooooooooo GOOOOD!! I have a bathtub back in KK but I hardly use it anymore. I was glad that I did take that long bath even if it meant going to bed at 3.30am. :) Oh and I did manage to snap some pics of the bathroom just because I know Mariuca will get a hoot out of it.

The spacious bathroom. You can have a party of 10 in there!
On the right of the bathroom: the huge shower..
On the far left of the bathroom: The deep bathtub.. looks small but it can fit 2. :P
It makes me want to book a hotel room just for the fun of it. Hmmm.. not a bad idea for a belated birthday celebration for the husband, right?
