Beatles - In My Life
There are places I remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places had their moments
With lovers and friends
I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I’ve loved them all

Though I know I’ll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I’ll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
In my life I love you more

Mom called me last night and told me her car crashed, very fortunately without anyone inside. Apparently she pulled the hand break but left the car on drive mode, so the nearly 1 yr old gen-2 went straight to the coconut trees in front of my neighbour’s house.

Mom was quite upset coz it’s still cny and all which she feels it’s bad luck and uneasy about the whole thing as the accident was rather unexplainable. So I tried to make her feel better by telling her that this could have been happened to prevent bad things happen to her and all that matters is nobody gets hurt.

There’s this feeling which is weird coz when I was younger, we needed parents to be there to console us and make us feel better. And now, my mother was looking for assurance from me. It’s a mom-is-getting-old kinda sad feeling and im-grown-up-and-have-to-protect-family kinda feeling. And I feel sucky coz I wasn’t there by her side.

Since I’ve been away from home, I know my sister is not caring enough to be patient with my parents that it makes my mom misses me more. My mom cried the day I left home and she cried again the day we left grandma house heading back to KL after celebrating Cny last week. I used to feel excited to be able to get away from home coz I felt suffocated sometimes for some issues back then. But now, I just want to be home.

I miss my sister dearly. This time around, I had been trying to spend more time talking to her and do things with her. Try my best to be the guidance she needs and I totally understand how is it feels to be worried. My sister makes me worry all the times. I always discuss family stuff with my brother especially about our baby sister. She still so young yet we are not there most of the time to protect her.

Protect is the exact word as I don’t want her to go through some difficult times like I did or learn things the hard way like I did. It’s a real blessing that my sister is a down to earth and nice young girl, which makes me love her even more. She has been demanding letters from me during Cny and I feel happy. This indicates that we are getting closer. Last year, I felt like a stranger to her and then it hit me that I had not known or care about her since I left home.

There’s nothing much to say about my dad as we didn’t talk much. Most of times, we listen to him. And me being the eldest daughter, never really go against his will as I really respect him and I truly know that his intentions are good. But that doesn’t make him a stubborn one, he listens as well. I always impress with his hard work and achievements. Being able to give us more than enough, I feel damn lucky.

And now, I wish time goes back to when I was just about to meet them for reunion.

Good times are short and never enough.

family is always the best.

as everyone is already has their own position and role in this tiny circle.

and everyone fits in well.

as usual we don’t visit friends but friends visit us.

we don’t gamble.

so we watched tv and shopped most of the time.

dad bought me a 2nd hand 2yrs old kancil. coz bro took back his kenari and dad thinks I definately need a car.

i have to take a bus ride down south and drive the little kancil back to kl. It’s ok coz I’ll do anything to get a car.

Got Lazy to the vet and apparently there’s no fungal infection on his tail but rather just allergy coz his tail is way too dirty. No application of medicine, just some tablets will do the trick.

But he’s been extreme annoying but running away every night and comes back home in the morning with dirt and dust. I tried to wipe his face with wet tissue and he still looks like someone just wiped his face with charcoal.

I thought things will be different once his balls were off but apparently this is just the beginning.

I’m came back to kl on tues (20/2) and my hsemates are coming back today. No more freedom and quiet environment.

Had a dinner with my long distance bro from Semenyih and watched Ghost Rider. The movie was good yet not good enough. It can be more exciting and shocking.

Been watching Heroes lately. Hiro Nakamura! “I come in peace!” He is so adorable!

I just bought the most expensive alarm clock I ever buy in my life.

RM258.00. Apple Alarm Clock for Ipod Video.

Brother’s birthday present.

Yes. It’s three digit priced alarm clock.

It works as speakers and charger as well. So fair enough. Keep telling myself that I bought speakers instead of alarm clock for two hundred something. Heart pain. Lucky brother still has some mercy on me and contributed Rm100.

Forget every iPod alarm clock that you have ever seen before, this Alarm Clock from Radio Shack is the real deal with it’s retro design. This iPod alarm clock also charges your ipod, has a 9-minute snooze function and it also has a speaker so that you can listen to the music on your ipod.

quoted from www.chipchick.com.

So his Ipod video doesn’t actually stop at Rm1599. He bought Road trip as well for Rm340++. Something which allows you to play your ipod in the car. Leather casings worthed Rm200++. And now alarm clock RM258.

You do the math.

Parents and sister came over. So I was the family driver for the past two days and my whole body is aching. Especially my feet after sending bro back to semenyih. Why was I so kind…

Even though I had been sleeping for more than 8 hours each night during my 2 nights stay in the hotel, I still can’t feel my limbs now.

I need to help jy buy his reload card by 8pm before he reaches KL and I forgot to buy Lazy’s food while I was in The Curve for lunch after my morning class.

But I just reached home and I need sleep. So, don’t care.

Oh btw, when I passed through the toll earlier, they were giving out a packet of instant noodle and a can of isotonic drink to everyone. Hmm, what a way to advertise.

My bro sliced his credit card!!!

And he forced me to take the car or else he will just crash the car into port klang.

-.-

But then, OMGGGGGGG……

Just came back from Pontian, Johor. Brother innocently made me drove most of the journeys back and forth.

Sunday, on the way…
“Until Tangkak, k? Tangkak only few km from here, ok?”
“Ooookkkk…”

“Eh, stupid fool, we passed Tangkak damn long already lo……”
“huh? ummm…” *stupid bro continue pretending to sleep*

So I kena conned and drove all the way back to Pontian from Malacca.

Today, I drove from Pontian to Malacca again. But then, I got him to send me until my doorstep. The initial plan was to leave me at the Kajang station. Bleh. I won’t let that happen with all the food and fruits that I’m gonna have to carry all the way.

Each of us get a packet of grapes and a box of this roundish biscuits which I don’t know what they called in English, from my aunt and two packets of fried chicken from grandma. My grandma owns a coffee shop which sells chicken rice. Her chicken rice is different from the normal ones. Hers are like fried but soft and tender.

The driving was actually quite fun. Maybe coz bro bought the Apple Ipod Roadtrip thing where you can play your Ipod Video in the car. So we watched Futurama, or more like, he watched and I listened while driving. The cartoon is stupid but funny la. Bro said it’s kid’s porn. Hehe. So yeah, at least the journeys back and forth weren’t boring.

Dad called last night and roughly mentioned about why I should recognise the road and all coz WHEN HE GETS ME A CAR, I will not get lost.

Aiya, I know la, but WHEN la…… *looking forward*

Right after I passed the car to my brother.

Dad called and said he’s planning to get me another car.

OMFG.

How could I almost forget to write this down?

Was talking to fj about the japanese dinner I went with my dad last Sunday night in Starhill… JOGOYA!!!!

Awesome man!

There is the Buddha-jumping-over-the-wall soup! Dad said it’s not good enough but I love it! Better than the Ginseng chicken one. Bleh.

The varieties of the buffet makes you feel rm100 per person is quite worth it. Well, try it at least once in a lifetime mah. Dad love that place and I bet he’s coming back for it when he comes KL again in Nov.

I love their mango mousse, mango shake, mango ice cream… coz I LOVE MANGO!!

Then, next day dinner was at Chillies. Something really worth mentioned about their food is the mashed potatoes! My dad kept stealing mine so that’s mean he likes it too! Mini volcano shape but bigger portion compare to everywhere’s mashed potatoes and so yummy…

I’ve been eating at the Dragon-I twice this week. Once with dad before he left for airport and the other time was with my neighbour and his mom. Got two voucher free worth Rm 8 of xiao long bao (small dragon balls) but must go Sunway Pyramid new branch.

Madam Kwan in Mid Valley. Dinner with dad and some friends. The curry fish head is superb! Big portion somemore. Dad likes the nasi lemak there even though it costs Rm 13 (I think) over there. Well, it comes in big portion and very nice too, so fair enough la.

Vietnam kitchen with frens yesterday before my neighbour/friend left to UK.

Mama’s Kitchen in Tmn Tun with housemates for dinner.

Hooked, The Curve, dinner before watching Thai movie, Ghost Game. Food was so so, should have go Fish Manhanttan since the price is around there. Movie also so-so.

Watched Snakes on the Plane last week with my dad. If NOT FOR MY DAD, I wouldn’t have watch that movie with all the snakes in it…… OMG still couldn’t believe I really watched that movie.

Seriously, all snakes should have allergy against oxygen and just die diE DIE!!!!

Dad drove a car from JB for my brother and brother is not back yet, so the car is currently in my possession right now. So, I went Ikano to get Lazy’s litter sand and food. Bringing Lazy to grooming tomorrow.

Hsemate is getting selfish-er and selfish-er. Something wrong with our internet router and its like only one person can go online at one time. So he’s connected then just keep quiet and doesn’t bother about others. Then when he couldn’t, he just showed his charcoal face.

My handphone’s keypad doesn’t work so I gave up sms. Sent it to service just now.

Next week, I have night lectures by a professor from far far away land. *yawn*
