Meet the Parents at Lumut, Ipoh

I met Azwaj’s parents six months after our first date and it wasn’t just a one or even a two hour meet and greet session but it was for a weekend of all inclusive holidays trip to Lumut, Ipoh. .. lol.. talk about scary right? I mean I only knew the chap for six months and all of sudden he invited me to go on a holiday with his whole family and the scarier part was that I accepted..hahah..

Anyway I thought if this relationship was going to go somewhere, anywhere, I might as know his background as soon as possible and what better way to get to know him and his family better than spending time with them. Lucky for me, my future in-laws were an awesome lot and we got along fabulously. The place was great and I even got a glimpse of my first “ghost”.. haha.

This was taken before the era of smart phone and digital camera so all these were in the form of print. I managed to dig out some of them but since I was too lazy to scan them, I just used my camera and snap pictures of the photos hence that blob of white light from the flash.

The Chalet

This chalet area, up on the hill, no longer exist so I was glad we got a nice picture of it

From this window at the chalet, I saw a “ghost” on the shoreline walking into the sea

Frustrated

I’m spring cleaning in hopes of finding one photo album that I’ve misplaced somewhere. I swear I have it in my home because I’ve seen it a few times but now for the life of me I can’t figure out where it is. I found some other photographs of my life once upon a time, even found a picture of some  rose plants that my late dad grew but still the one album that I’m looking for nowhere in sight. Arghhh…defintely no fun.

Oh well, I’m sure it will turn up somewhere but for now I’m just purely frustrated!

Cheerio…

Meeting Up with Besties

friendAs usual I always have a blast whenever the CNC ladies meet. We’ve been friends for more than a 15years and we try to meet up as often as we can whenever I come back home to Singapore.

Hard to imagine that Lilian has a son that just enlisted in national service, Shanti’s boy is 11years old and Li-Ming’s first born is already 9! Where did the time go?

We talked a lot of what’s going on in our life and work. We even talked about going on a weekend of cheap holidays abroad some day so much so that I suggested the ladies come over to KL for weekend. We could stay in some hotel, order room service and have a slumber party of mocktails and dancing and if loud music is a factor, we can all put the same song in our phone, plugin in the headphone into our respective ears, hit the play button and dance away.. lol!

The 3 hours that we spent today passed by too fast too. Before we knew it, our handphone was all ringing from calls from either child or husband signify that it was time to go home.

Sigh.. gonna miss my ladies and hope that weekend trip become a reality one day! Oh no picture as these ladies are all camera shy.. lol!

Hot Singapore

Sometimes when I stand at the corridor of my apartment here in Singapore, I feel like I’m on a beach on one of those Carribbean holidays or something. The cool breeze makes me forget how hot Singapore can get sometimes. Sad to say however, the breeze does not pass through the apartment at all. It just sort of pass in front of of the door and move onwards. That is also why the fan in the living room is NEVER off and I have this cute USB fan next to me while I’m working.

Anyway, I’m still thankful for the heat because I’m sure somewhere out there people are hoping the rain would stop in their area so that the flood would subside. As they say, the grass is always greener on the other side so am trying hard to remember that so that I am thankful for all the blessings that I have :)

Walking in Singapore

shoes

Raya Shoes

For the first time since I started the Music Monday meme 163 times ago, I actually forgot to publish my post at midnight this morning. Blame it on Raya, blame it on being sleepy, blame it on me.. lol! Anyway I only got the post out at noon, talk about late..haha…

Anyway, I walked so much yesterday that I was glad I had my comfy shoes on. It might be easyspirit shoes but it does the job. Yeap, there is a lot of walking for me whenever I go back. I think my “exercise” only happens while I’m back in my homeland.. hehe..

Cheerio…
