Hi I'm Back :)

I just reached home from Malacca an hour ago. We were there since Saturday Jan 24 till today Tuesday Jan 27. 4 days 3 nights. Actually we were planning to stay for only 3 days 2 nights but I guess everyone was enjoying themselves..^.^As Malacca is my grandma's and mom's hometown, we usually visit during holidays if my mom is not busy. The last time we visited the place was in November and even that was for two three days only. The night before we left I got all my stuff packed and we departed the house at 9a.m. the next day. Since my aunt, grandma and cousins were going, we went together..I mean in two cars..On the same day we got some dreadful news...my other cousins Shaz,Ain and Haris's bunny died................may you rest in peace dear bunny. Well back to the story, the journey was about two hours and we reached at noon. After havin lunch at the Jusco foodcourt, we headed off to the house,I call ancient house because it was there since my grandma was small. Well, Of course they rebuilt it and stuff.. When we reached there only my two grandaunts were home-Nek Yah and NekNgal( my grandma's cousins). They are the ones who have been looking after the house after our late great grandparents passed away. In the evening, my second cousins came. In case you don't know what's a second cousin, they are your parent's cousins children. So several of them were there. At night we went to this well-known restaurant and I had this scrumptious tomyam soup.

The next day, we( me, my sis, Mirul, Kimi, Faisal, Faris and Firdaus) played this game called Catur Bestari which Faisal bought at KFC. It was fun but rather confusing when you first play it. Business-like, monopoly-type. That's how you describe it.Then they begged me to join them play Playstation 2. I dont usually play these stuff but I thought I'd give it a try. Well it was fun and in the end I was the one laughing away cuz I kept on coming in last. Well guess what??? After coming in last so many times I improved and i came in 3rd then 2nd, HA HA! See I can play too.

The following day was CNY. We planned to play Catur Bestari again. After hours waiting for them playin ps2, we finally played the game. Supposedly we were to go back to KL that particular day but like I said everyone was enjoying themselves..:) On this day I fell sick. :(.........

Later that night we went for dinner at this mamak stall.

Sadly today we went back home..Like usual going back to kl feels quicker than going to malacca..

I know I will miss Malacca and I dont know when I will go back again.. maybe during Hari Raya who knows? I had an enjoyable and relaxing time in malacca and it truly kept me away from the hectic school life in KL. But I guess life has to go on whether you like it or not.. As my mom was driving home on the same path I come back from school, my mind was filled with sadness as I feel like Im getting closer to ordinary life..so this saying came across my mind.. Be happy where you are, with what you have, with who you are with and with what you are doing. with that, i pushed away that sad feeling, sat down and dropped you all a line.......>.

PMR's OUT
Its out! Its out! OMG!! I was nervous the day before and could barely sleep.....................................
Well, thankfully I got 8A's. I went to school quite late. Couldn't make it any earlier. Reached at 12 and when I reached the school gate, I bumped into Atul and she told me I got straight 8A's. My heart raced and I hurried to the Examination room. Mrs. Chin handed the results to me and she said I missed the result giving ceremony....too bad...OMG!!!I'm so glad everything is settled. One moment I'm buying books in preparation for the PMR and the other I'm getting my results. Time flies!! No, really. I mean it. Got several phone calls and messages from family and friends asking about my results..hehe :D Right after that my that we went for lunch and my dad let me choose any restaurant I want to go. Hmmm...after some deliberation I chose Iranian delicacy at a new Iranian restaurant called Pasargad. I just love Iranian food^.^Yumm...........................

Meanwhile, for dinner mom prepared a special dish-hamburgers sandwiches prepared in a special way and peaches and strawberries topped with whipped cream for dessert! Yummy!

I got a white apple laptop to match with my phone, some ka-ching $$ and probably a piano soon!

XOXO

Bye Holidays!!!!!!!Hello school

Hi!! I want to apologise for not updating my blog these couple of weeks..so sorry..I was quite busy most of the time. Buying this and that, going here and there,and everywhere! So here's some STUFF that happened during that time..........................

14 Dec 2008
My New Phone Was Born...
It was a Sunday and I went for my regular piano class in Yamaha and later bought my new Sony Ericsson W910 special edition Silky White!! Supposedly its my b'day gift but I get it 1 month earlier.It's so beautiful and I can't stop admiring it....hehe....We also bought the screen protector,plastic cover, a uni holder and a small Roxy pouch for it. All for you!!

15-17 Dec
Off To Genting!!!!!
My sis and I were to choose where we wanted to go. My parents didn't want to go anywhere too far,so in the end we decided to go to Genting. Besides, its been years since I have gone there.. Like usual, Genting hotels are always fully booked especially during the hols so, luckily we got a room in Awana Hotel. We went around 3pm and reached there within an hour. It was so QUICK, man! I mean I didn't expect it to be that quick..
For the first day we just stayed in the hotel, ate maggi cup and checked out the hotel compounds. We played video games at the playing area while my little bro went on the token rides. Ah..it was so nice and the weather was cool.
The next day we ate breakfast at the hotel before going to the theme park.. We went there by taxi and it was RM40 going to the theme park and the same amount going back to the hotel..WOW!! By the end of the day i went on 10 rides including indoors and outdoors..Only 1 ride in indoors..I know so little bit you wouldn't believe the queues. Imagine spending more than 50% of your time there queueing up!! My favourite ride was the roller coaster.. it was so scary and I fell like I was going to fall off my seat..Some Important reminder!!!!!!!!!!!Remember to bring a muffler, an extra sweater and even mittens the next time you go to Genting. It was super cold for me..and I brought none of the above*.*
The next day we went swimming at the hotel's pool while my dad went for massage. My sis and I made a friend there called Darsheni. Later on we packed up and were ready to leave. The funny part was that while we were busy putting the bags at the car boot, my 2 year old bro spilt milk powder all over the car, so we had to call someone to vacuum it.....toddlers......they are always up to something.........Overall it was a very relaxing and an enjoyable trip^.^


A Creepy Experience
I have these back and neck aches now since early this year and its getting more and more severe lately. First, I thought that it was because of the PMR but even after that, it still continued to ache. Finally we went to see a specialist in Gleneagles and the doctor asked me to take the MRI short for Magnetic Resonance Imaging. I thought it was some x-ray stuff so I didn't bother to ask or check-out. When the day finally came, I found out that it was that thingy that you have to lie down and it will close up!! Just like tuna being canned according to my sis!!You dump the tuna in the can and close it up. I was freaking out and that statement wasn't helping!!!!!!!!!!! Its like in that movie"Meet Dave" and Dave( Eddie Murphy) had to do the MRI after the accident and ended up being stuck to the machine cuz he happens to be a robot from another planet made out of metal and metals are attracted to magnets, right?? Phew, that was long..Well, briefly we're not supposed to have any metallic items with us in the room. it snot that Im claustrophobic or something but its scary to go in somewhere closed and know you cant get out. Well luckily I didnt have to go all the way in since the MRI was involving the spine. Although it was only 15 min, it felt SO long. It was very noisy in that machine and I had to wear these thing to cover my ears. Honestly, it sounded like drums and irritating music.It was like I was in a loud concert.heh..not as bad as I expected though...creepy experience I would say

A Special Dish For New Year
Its been a while since our family has had some gathering, so my mom planned to invite my aunts and uncles, grandparents and my cousins to our house for lunch. This year the Islamic new year 1430 and 2009 are only 4 days apart, so we planned to have it on a Sunday before new year. To make it special this time, my parents planned to have turkey as the main dish. WE went to buy it and it was 100++ and Whoa that was a shock for my mom. well, turkey is a rare dish in Malaysia so I guess that's why its expensive.we still bought it. My Mom is such a great cook. Other dishes on the menu:
-macaroni mixed and topped with 4 different types of cheese(mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, cheddar cheese and Parmesans cheese)
-Zetti with the same type of cheese
-baked chicken in tomato sauce
-chicken fried in cornflakes
-salad with lemon juice
-marble cake topped with whipped cream and peaches and strawberries on top
-chicken rice
-noodles
-special Iranian soup modified by mom
The cool part is that everything is homemade!!
All I can say is that it was such a special and memorable gathering.
P.S. I even got my hair straightened by then

To be continued and I will be back A.S.A.P.
Happy reading!!!!!!!!!!!
