WADEHEK!!!: July 2009

So, its been quite a while since I last showed up in words. Hihi. Really I don't have much to write about, like REALLY! So, today I decided that I need a little hair cut, of course fuzzy hair frustration came into mind when I had a little trip to the Monique Bay Beach a few days back, and try imagining the sweet, crisp beach breeze came into a synchronizing lullaby with my pretty darn long hair, haha.

OK! OK! Haircut! I used to have my haircut right by Tan Chong Eng, but today, my mom suggested her regular service, and so I did. Well, the shop isn't too shabby from the outside looks, but hey it's pretty comfy inside, owh and not to mention it's a saloon, not a haircut and shaving hut. I was introduced to the owner, a young Chinese lady, looking sweet in her dress. I thought she was really a successful owner, as I learned soon after that she has 7 workers, currently working for her. First thing that came to mind as I came in is that, this place is anything but unsuccessful. There, laid a white Benz just by the car lot, my inference is, this lady really is a money maker.

Ok, so I had a haircut over there, a little facial and cleansing, and the cost, isn't so bad at all. I would definitely come again. (^^)

So, talking about holiday eh? Time really flies my dear. It's been almost 3 weeks here in my hometown. I have this little plan of having a little reunion thinghy with a couple of my ex school buddies, was wondering how is Alex, Aeeron, and the rest of the gang doing. I would be heading to KL again sometime next week, and on initial plan of spending 2-3 days over there, of course meeting arif, marina, farah and bla bla bla.

Had a message the other day, from Prabu, well, he's already off to Melbourne, haha. It's been 2 years since I last met him after SPM and in a pretty darn good coincidence, we found out that we have the similiar holidays by 2 weeks, except that his is winter's and mine is summer's. Prabu's a humble guy, and he deserve to e recognized, we've been friends for almost 7 years now, plus minus a few days, haha.

So, we had some good time fishing and yum cha-ing. Owh, Did i mention that we met Hafiz, Pei Liang and Yong Jie too? It's funny that Yong Jie and I, we both study in the states, but we never bother to go visit each other, haha, I would definitely pay him a visit sometime soon, as soon as I'm done with my "well-planned" Europe trip. The question is just the matter of time though. And of course m.o.n.e.y. ^^

Speaking of money, I've been saving up to treat myself with a little surprise, jeng jeng jeng (SFX)... (-_-") probably a nice motorcycle, or an upgraded gaming desktop, please don't mind the name, I rarely play games on my computer. Except the Sims 3 of course. I'm a crackhead when it comes to simulation games. Haha

Hurm, I was wondering how much does it cost to get myself a Yamaha R6, or R1, but a Honda CBR is not a bad idea too, or a kawasaki Z1000 ninja. I just hate the insurance that comes along with it though, Urghhh, need to get myself a nice hot tea to cool down when it comes to machines, :p.

This is how they look like:

Yamaha R6, isn't she sexy? :p

Yamaha R1 Raven, pure beauty!

Honda 1000RR, menacing!

Kawasaki Z1000, melting!

So, let's just leave these things on fate, of course, I would still be craving everyday and night for these.

It was as funny as crap at Nashville's Airport. The limit for luggage was 50 pounds, but both of my bags exceeded the very number, namely one being 83 pounds, and another being 63 pounds. I had to get myself a new bag, but it was rather anticipated for since the day before. So, we arrived at Newark Airport a few hours later, hurm, honestly I prefer LAX, this one looks really like a mess. Heck, it’s not like I’m gonna be here for more than a day, toleration took place.

~New York Airport~

~Arlanda Airport, Stockholm, Sweden~

Soon we boarded the Malaysian Airlines flight (MAS). We had to stop for a drop-off at Stockholm (Arlanda Airport) and for the couple of hours, at Amsterdam Airport for refueling. My Uncle was supposed to be with us, I mean piloting this MH 91 back to Kuala Lumpur. Unfortunately something came up, but hey, we managed to secure three great seats with ample space of leg room. Heck, it was fun. Owh, did I mention that the steward and stewardess are superb too? One of them steward by the name of Ridzuan is a miraculously friendly. I soon found out that he is the uncle of one of us Vanderbilt Students. So, we were being shown around the cabin, and of course, we did not miss the cabin crew rest place on the upper deck. Heck, I mean how often can you be here? Haha

Hanis looks menacing (-_-")

The cool stewardess

And the stewards too!

We touched down sometime around 10.30 ish, minus taxiing to the aprons. Boy it was a good flight, i mean, despite MAS having so much trouble this days with the newly elected Idris Jala trying to turn around the economic plan, MAS still live its name with the best Cabin Crew airline. I mean heck, I couldn't ask for more :p

So we were welcomed by the thermal cameras on our way out, 3 of them in fact, in total. However it may be, we survived all that and made our way to the baggage claim area. To my horror, none of our bags were there, until Billy Jo (B.J) secured his, and everybody sighed in relief. Hehe. (This scene is made dramatic according to the guidelines by Warner Bros. Company)

With the baggages claimed, I strolled down the aisle to the airport exit. There, my parents and little Syasya and Imi were waiting, looking rather impatiently. I was greeted with a bouquet of flower and a box of chocolate with greeting card attached to it. Hey, it was a really warm welcome indeed. Thanks all! うれしかった！ So, we hugged each other for a while and made it to the car.

The flower, the chocolate and the greet card! :p うれしい　:p

That day, we had lunch at the local Thai restaurant. Being in the states for 2 years, I was almost clueless of how my taste buds might react to the food. There were fried soft shelled crabs, wonton, jumbo shrimps, fried sweet sour fish, Ranchai crabs and a lot of cold juices! Urgh, I love Malaysia's food. I think they should establish a foundation of the chefs around here. Haha

So, I'm now in Kemaman. Zurriya, Syera, Fawwaz are coming down sometime next week. Prabu is off to KL for his Taylor's reunion or something. Me? Staying home getting fat and fatter. So far, I had Hai Peng coffee and kaya buns, owh, not to mention mom's chi fan (Chicken rice), Li's fried dry noodle and Tong Juan's stuff crab. Yet in the lists are Patani's Red meat rice (Nasi daging merah), Teratak's wonton noodle, and Chinatown's Mata Kucing drink, Cherating's Fried Chicken rice, Kuantan's sizzling hot plate, KT's fried ice cream and much much much much more!

Li's fried dry noodle

Yummy!!

Stuff crabs!!! :p

I wish the people from Japanese Hall are here too. Probably one day in near future. I heard Makiko's coming down here to Malaysia, but i wasn't sure of the date. Haiz..

It's been a while since I was last here. There are a couple of noticeable changes here and there. Here are a couple of snapshots of our home.
