LIFE: me, myself and I

wow.. it feels like ages since i had the urge to pen down something here... well lets see, first of, i'm back home, Malaysia home not Melbourne home.. so i guess i'm home home... gosh, it just feels so damn good... i mean, the moment the flight attendant announced 'and to fellow Malaysians, WELCOME HOME' i was like feeling super giddy inside.. like i wanted to smile really wide and be like jumpy and stuff but the guy sitting beside me was totally like so what... so i kinda had to just gaze out the window, pretending to be enjoying the beautiful landscape outside when there wasn't really anything that cool to be looking at... ok, bad Malaysian.. sure my country's beautiful and stuff, but you know what i mean right... LCCT isn't that much of a sight if i'm being really honest..

well, let's see... the change.. wow.. i mean, i kinda knew that when you're like 9 or maybe 10 (i always get the months wrong) months away, there's bound to be some difference at home, but talk about change.. where do i start.. hmmm.. well, the house isn't red anymore, its yellow now.. not like highlight yellow or sunny yellow.. its pleasant yellow, kinda nice.. then there's the bathroom... ok, scratch that all 3 bathrooms (or jamban as we call it here) transformed.. like hotel standard... i mean not to say it was gross when i came home last year, totally not, but this time its like super duper cool and we have hot water now, which come to think of it is really quite funny considering how hot it is here... oh, abah drives a new estima now.. and its black, with tinted windows.. totally feel like your siti nurhaliza or someone important like that.. mama no longer has a car, she's driving along's... and there's this gigantic massage chair in our living room.. i was totally jakon and had like a few goes on it the moment i saw it, but honestly on your 4th round it starts to get even more sore than before you tried it on.. so, 3 rounds max i'll say... and... wait for it... yes, my house now has an exercise machine... which comes to a total shock at first, because my family, exercising..lets just say, not that keen on it (if you've seen me, you have the picture) but its kinda cool coz its not one of those fancy running ones or the cycling ones, but it sorta vibrates like really fast, i haven't got my head around how it works yet, but i guess it kinda shakes all the fat out.. sort off...

that's all physical...on the personal change.. hmm... nah... nothings really changed much.. my family is still the same whacky family i know and love.. aww.... how sappy is that.. but its true... the most obvious, kak chik and adik (my two little sisters if you can still call them little) still fight all the time.. operative word here ALL the time.. the first few days back i kinda just smiled and enjoyed it, relishing how much i missed the bickering..but all good things must come to an end.. days after that it i kinda was hoping that the law will forgive me if i accidentally shot them both..haa... kidding.. but yeah, you get the picture... abah still uses the same MO of trapping us in the car before giving hours of lectures...ooo and the jokes are still as hilarious as ever... and mama, is still mama... worrying about her kids 24/7.. when you think about it, i kinda feel guilty that she has to worry so much about us.. but she's mama, and we love her... and.. oooohhh... along is busy getting engaged... kinda out of the blue... still can't believe she's getting married...its weird actually.. you know it will happen some day, but you never think someday is today (hypothetical today, not like today today).. she's still my big sis in all senses and now she's not just gonna be along, she's gonna be like someone's wife and mom... it's got my whole family buzzing... i mean, it's kinda funny... watching mama n abah go full wedding mode.. they went to this wedding this weekend and came back with tonnes of ideas for along's majlis...some really good, some were just...hmmm...so i guess were just missing out kak lang... she's been in egypt 2 months now.. its kinda sad when we all sit together to eat or gossip and someone's missing and this time around its kak lang... i haven't seen her for months now, and i really do miss her...not forgetting, we have a new addition to the family... ENCOT... forgive the name, but he's a really cute obese cat that mama, my sisters and even abah are sooo obses about...

i'll be home for the next 3 months.. thats a long time of doing nothing at home.. that's true really, i don't really do much at home except the daily routine of waking up (at 9.30, latest :p) doing laundry, prepare lunch blah blah blah.. things that i've been doing like forever... i mean, its been kinda the same routine each time its a school holiday since i was like form one, so now years later, even when i'm home from uni break, it still feels the same... its kinda like one of those hate/love things where u hate doing it but because you do it all the time you sort of love doing it now...not sure if i'm gonna be doing my intern... i want to, but not really putting my hopes too high... i'll try to find a new hobby this time around rather that lazing myself out but again not putting my hopes too high... lets just say, i'm allowing myself 3 months of blissful family time before that vicious time of studying comes again next year...yeah, right... :)
