It feels just like family

I came back a day earlier than i have planned during my CNY break so that i can get to meet one of my "heng tai" Kenneth Wong as i may not be having the chance to meet him again cos he will be applying for PR in Australia after his studies. The day started when i gave him a call saying that i will be going to his place via taxi, however as generous as he is he turned down my offer and came pick me up instead. There he was in the Gen 2 with his sister Jessica to pick me up and off we went to have the so called "legendary fried tom yam rice" as he normally claims. Haha it ended up not bad not so spicy and just right it really hit the spot. Next we went to Sunway Pyramid to because Kenneth wanted to get some stuff as well as the new winning eleven ( A.k.a Yee Loo to Kenneth and Calvin). Once we are done Kenneth wanted me to meet his girl friend Michelle so we drove to Bandar Utama to pick her up as he also planned to have dinner with her. We sat down at her place and get to chat abit with her mom who is very kind and offered me a drink as well as give me an Ang Pow. Then her father came back when we were just about to leave to bad i wasnt able to chat with him, maybe next time. The final stop was back at Kenneth home where i get to meet uncle Mike and Aunty Kat its been a while since i last saw them, they are still as friendly and hospitable as always which always made me feel at home and also like part of the family. It seem that they just sold of the Rx7 and Mercedes MPV, and got a Civic and Naza Ria. Also i realise that there there are more decorations in the house especially aunty kats prized duck figures. At that time Calvin wasnt at home as he outside with his gf Karina. Then Kenneth's younger Emily came down, wow she has certainly grown taller and prettier even the way she dresses has changed, well what can i say girls matures like a flower blossoms under the mid-day sun. After watching "ah Wong" which Michelle has rented, thats when Jessica went to pick up Marcus who just got back from Sarawak. Once they were back, off we went for dinner in Bangsar Village. I had mamas bolognese spaghetti haha which is quite nice but it was the desert that was the best, chocolate brownies topped with ice cream with choc syrup.... slurpp it really got my sweet tooth there. Once were are stuffed we went on to some window shopping where we ended up in Novo and Vincci which is where the ladies look for their basic necessities ... Shoes lol. Haha its kindda of funny cos Jessica was having some trouble making her decision on the choices of shoes to buy and the others we complaining that it took very long well i dont blame her as the shoes looks equally good.

Somethings just never change! Thank god it didnt =)

Chinese New Year had just passed a week ago so there i was on a bus with my sis on a 5hour journey back to the place where i spent most of my youth. Its good to see some development in town there is a new landmark, some shop houses, and some changes to the road however the Kemaman feel is still there so quiet, so peaceful, so at home. I have to admit i miss this place as its been a Year since i have come back. Sometime i think that we do really take our roots for granted, after tasting life in the city nothing beats the feel of home. Mom and dads cooking, the family dinner, my comfy bed, good ol Lucky boy, driving around town, the feel of sand between my feet, the wind in my hair, the sounds of the crashing waves, reunion with home town friends. Was also able to visit Kok Loy, Kee Ling and Sonny boy who is Kok Loy's cousin who is also my childhood friend which i last saw when he left for Australia for studies. Lucky for the 1 week break i was able to drive down to Kuala Terengganu to visit my relatives (mom's side) wow the younger generation do grow up so fast these days my cousins are so much taller than the last time i saw them... hmm it must be the milk that they drank when they are babies lol sustagen, enfagrow, etc. Its also great to see my aunts and uncles are well and content with life there. My cousin bro Danny is now playing world of warcraft and even registered a trial account for me. WoW like its name sake is an amazing game with nicely crafted character design, vast environments and realistic movments left me captivated but its sad that nowadays i do not have much time to play especially P2P games. Haiz but somethings arent the same this time I wont be able to crash at Alans place and play cards with him and his bros friends, lol ah peng ahaha hilarious. The second day was more in "Pai Nian" at friends house, the first stop was Wei Chih place where i met all of the boys most notably is Ah Tong who gave me an Ang Pow as he is the first among our batch to get married. Lol funny thing is that everybody says that my looks never change just as i was since i left high school. After that we went to Ah Pings house where we met the rest of the kemaman girls which i must say they look so much ladylike now. We had a few drinks and good laugh before deciding to go eat kemaman specialty which is keropok and coconut so off we go to Kijal. On the third day of Chinese New Year i had my reunion with my high school friends at Sanctuary Beach resort. We rented a beach buggy and took turns to ride it around the seaside just pure fun! when night falls its BBQ time! Then its the spin the bottle time where all the secrets are revealed... lol but im not going to mention it here to embarrassing. A day passes and its time to go back my week is over so i went back with my KL uncle who came to Suria Beach resort for a visit.

Tennis...... anyone?

I was surfing for transfomers movie images when i ended up in some elses blog with this link:

http://www.hemmy.net/2006/06/25/highest-tennis-court-play-in-dubai/

The venue is the Burj al Arab Dubai Hotel setting a world record for the highest tennis court. The view is simply breathtaking. Also featured is a tennis match between Andre Agassi and Roger Federer. This wonder of Architectural design speaks for it self. But i think Agassi and Federer needs to have bungee cords attached incase they fall over the edge.

Thank god he have no emotional or physical feelings im sure if that was me my head would have hurt and be pretty embarrassed to say the least.

Age old con tricks used by other people to betrays someone elses confidence which coins the term "Confidence Trick". It quite interesting what some people can come up with to pull scams that preys on the greed of men which is the major factor on how this works. So beware people dont let your greed get the better of you.

My Ying and Yang theory...

Hi what i thought was a great month this was, but i was hit by flu and cough. This further strengthen my concept of balance in the world. What i always believe is that when something good happens to you something bad always follow and vice versa and this is what creates the balance. Also to me the theory is that there is no such thing as a middle for instance in this world everything is split by half take for example the X and Y chromosomes there is no other! that makes a boy or a girl, win or lose, alive or dead, up or down, pass or fail and etc. Middle or a draw is just fictional term a made up term by man! no boundaries can be drawn. There is nothing to prove that something is over or lesser as this line that divides the two are just made up in numerical form where if it is precisely calculate it to the smallest margin computable it will either be one of the two. Call me nuts or call me crazy its my belief! sue me =p
