very rare that my father-side and my mother-side family will gather in one same occasion
my cousin from the father side turn out to be a long-time neighbor of my mother side
and she used to buy us candy and all
its good to see nice people found their happiness
I still keep thinking back to the weekend itself
it sure is the most or at least top 3 of my favourite weekends
dinner food were good
Cousins are altogether again
as we all grow, this could not be as easy as it was
some of us are working, some of us are studying
some of us(me actually) are hanging in the middle of lost in future dreaming
but yes, when we are together
its not like we will have some really in-depth talk which strengthens mentally or something
just, talking rubbish with these people is more than enough to make me happy
Hearing the working cousins talking makes me looking forward to my working life
i guess this is good, for i was the one saying
"lets study till the age of 55 so i dont have to work"
i am very lazy in a creative way
oh, and i made quite a good use of instax
i bought 2 boxes there and did use it quite leniently
the film could be expensive
but how many chances out there that i have so many people i want to snap with at a time?
(well, ninijiejie gave me 2 boxes of film la, so that could be a contributing factor to me getting all head over toe and forget the instax-film-is-damn-pricey thingy)
although for some, they still think instax is a waste of money
but i dont think so
the moment of joy where you get the photo instantly is priceless
PRICELESS
(never try it, never get it)
"Ohana" means family, family means nobody gets left behind
oh gosh how can i not tell?!
I BOUGHT US AN INSTAX LEEKAHINN!
yesh!!!! remember you used to flip that "Shao Nian"magazine and got fascinate by those instax photos?!
YESH YESH! we've got ourselves one now!
though its pink! that's because you got mentally sick friends who suggested that you all should get pink ones together and the worst part is you agreed to that statement, YOU ARE SICK!
yesh, we got it together with chingulin and joc.
because we all got so tempted after seeing yanying using hers during our food trip.
oh yes and the food trip!
my god why didnt i tell happy stories here?!
i look so damn emo wtf!
okay, so the stories begin when we have our food trip.
jocelyn is back, chingulin is back, and yanying is back
on that tuesday(3rd July) itself, yanying reached penang from KL on 12noon something
we fetch her with another 3 on the car, and begin the food trip
we went for 9 stop that day, and the 10th(to make it a perfect 10) the day after
Ah Leng Char Kuay Teow
Curry mee and "slide-down-the-throat" chicken
Penang road cendol
Penang road laksa
Continental bakery's mushroom soup and we bought some cream puff too
it turned out that this mushroom soup is the one in joc's memory which she couldn't tell the place
what a beautiful surprise from life!
this is complicated photo...
(clockwise)西施酥+蛋塔，abu siti lane coconut jelly, DURIAN!(葫芦hor lor&青皮kulit hijau)
we first brought this to our paradise beach, stand there and eat one
then it started raining, but we still insist to stand there
oh and while we were there, the wind is so damn strong that your hair got re-shaped into a OrangGila
but then our lovely friends stood and laugh even though they know a secret specific way of standing where the wind wouldn't get you.....Zalimnya kawan kita ni!
and this is the first time we buy durians on our own..quite a memory!
we stood under the drizzling weather, having durian..
our friend's suggestion is that we should eat the durian and wash the hand in the sea
like, eat something from the nature, return something to the nature.
so go green!
but the rain evolve from drizzling to really raining...
we ran back into the car and decided we should go for karaoke session
at first its just we want another place to eat out food lar, and the 1st avenue carpark got beautiful panoramic view ma...so off we go!
we drove up the carpark and saw people having "company-gathering-dinner" in the car park
then we drove up another floor, we saw some malay couple cuddling
then we drove up another floor, and we found a floor nearly empty
we parked, and placed the food on the car...surprisingly, the engine can help heating up the food!
we started eating and looked down seeing people traffic-jamming right under our feet
then we started reminiscing and talk about our good old days during high school
when we ordered mcdonalds and bravely admit it when questioned
when we fake a call to the disciplinary and urm...................
when we were classmates but more like sleep-mates
..........stuffs like that.
(a picture snap in the carpark and then snapped again in the karaoke)
so we finished those food, and walked into the mall for our karaoke session in redbox
holy mama, the price is too expensive, so plan changed to Neway in queensbay mall
we had our singing session, and that is the first time we finish all the song on list
not really la, its because we have to be back on time so we didn't order every song we wanted
just selectively, and keep skipping songs once we reached the chorus..as usual.
the karaoke bundled with a buffet dinner
Mou Gai lar, money already paid, takkan waste it meh,
so we still have our buffet dinner (like we did not eat what we ate)
the beef is nice, and thats all i can remember now
the sushi is horrible though! the rice is too dry
The next day, we went back to our HighSchoolHangOut spot, Belgium, for lunch
we ordered as we want, unlike back then we have to check the price again and again
we are no poor high school kids no more
but still its rather cheap, we had everything below plus 2 float, only cost us RM10
Surprise? no, no need, because though we have 5 dish for 4 person, we dont feel full. =S
beautiful eh? remember your high school days?
skip tuition, save money and come here for western food
back then, this is the only western food we get to go on our own without telling our parents
we used to have to offset between float and western food
if western food, then no drinks, if float then fried rice.
awhh.....
so this ended our pefect-10 food trip.
its awesome, because you realize why these people are called your friends
because we shared the same memories, because we shared the same perception towards life
this is our durian face, while we look at the durian people ...packing...joc snapping, so no her.
but it wouldnt be hard to imagine a tempting face on food people like us lar
you have never had a better two day like those two
you are thankful having people like these in your life
when you are with them, you are you
it had you figure things out
you like it when they are by your side and is ready to second your opinion
(though they tend to make you awkward by not laughing at your jokes...grr)
but its good when they are around
not so lonely after all
that night itself, you thanked god for bringing such awesome people to you
and you prayed you all stayed the same throughout years and time
i might have said this a couple of times, but you really like this bunch of friends
you like them, and you like the way you are when you are with them
we don't get to be all together much, its hard to meet everyone at the same time
we are all at different places, taking different lessons of life
but these people stayed beside you throughout times
with them we talk about everything,it could go from worshipping your blanket to random people on the street
without them, we keep quiet and look at the sky....and imagine
thinking back how much things we have done together..
the deeper we think, the more we are willing to do to secure this friendship
deep down in the core of my heart, there lies a few names
they are among those names
if we were to have a biography one day, these people would make quite a number of chapters
you love your friends. 你很爱你的朋友 此刻的你，很感恩拥有那么样的朋友
this is the first instax photo from our own instax
more to come
and i hope you are happy with this
i know it wouldnt mean anything to you
considering i ruin your 4-year-dream to study in uk with my bare hands
but i will make it up to you, i promise.
we will get our own lomo camera (which i already have one in mind)
此刻的你，很感恩拥有那么样的朋友
