I went to seremban last sunday for the wedding of my parents' friend's daughter.This uncle and auntie are my parents long friends from like the time when my parents were in their 20s when they weren't even married yet and the people that were present there were some of my parents friends that they haven't met for years.So you can imagine how happy my parents were reuniting with their friends continously chit-chatting and reminiscing old memories.Come to think of it I haven't seen my parents being that happy for long.The food were so nice that I vow that I will go to each wedding invitation from people in seremban.Yeah I'm such a glutton.
Anyway when I saw my parents that happy I learnt that you have to keep your friends that were with you when life were still simple and happy.In a way,however weird it might sound these are the people that could keep you sane when life gets so tough,when you might feel like giving up.These are the people that could remind you that life used to be nice and you can make it nice again.
I know I'm keeping mine.End.

I went to sabah for 5 days from last friday to yesterday with my mom on her office trip.Pretty long huh.On the first day I was rather bored and I kept thinking how on earth am I going to spend 5 days there since there weren't much activities listed on the schedule.Even the ones listed were quite boring to me just visiting museums and stuff.I was rather horrified looking at the condition of the hotel I am staying too.It was I think some sort of a budget hotel so I didn't have much expectation on it but I still expect it to be clean but of course the first thing I noticed when I entered the room were two black footprints on the blanket.They did change the blanket when requested though but there was a chinese food court next to the hotel so the area around the hotel were pretty smelly with rodents lying dead in front of the hotel's entrance.Plus I found out much later that the road that we were using to go to restaurants and night market everyday was actually some sort of their version of lorong hj taib.There were some transvetives hookers there.No wonder people that pass that road look at us strangely when we walk through the road.So dangerous.I am definitely not going to stay there again if I am going to sabah next time.If any of you are going to sabah ask me where I stayed so you could avoid staying there too.Stay at tune hotel instead if you are looking for a budget hotel.I was quite depressed the first day cause there weren't much things to do and it was very hard to find a clean malay restaurant but thinking that this could be the last time I will be on trip with just my mom I suck it up.It did get better though cause we found this restaurant that was opened by someone from semenanjung so it's ok but overall it's hard to find a place that suits your taste if you are a malay from semenanjung unless you wanna opt to eat at fast food restaurants cause sabah's food taste quite different and there were more chinese restaurants there.Finding breakfast is so much worse despite me staying at city center cause it's really hard finding restaurant that serve breakfast so we eat roti with tuna everyday instead.
Anyway the museum visit was boring cause there weren't much things and the visit to tamu which is like a pasar tani is quite a waste of time too cause they were just selling veges and fruits so it will just benefit the locals.I am still puzzled why tamu is listed as one of the tourist attraction there cause I don't think there are much things to buy there if you are a tourist.Me and my mom finish our round in tamu for just half an hour and spent a much longer time for the bus to take us back to hotel.I was really tired and it's scorching hot and dusty so I was pretty cranky to my mom,making long faces.I still felt guilty over it.I'm 23 and still childish.I felt like slapping myself.I have a way to cure this though whenever I felt that I am being mean or about to be mean.I will tell myself to stop being a bitch.It really work cause I'll really stop being a total bitch after that and put a smile on my face instead.Harsh way though to cure this.Other times there were consumed with walking to pasar Philippine and night market buying brooches and pearls.Minus the trouble finding food, sabah is likable because of that.There were so much variaties and so pretty.I loike.
Oh I saw this man on the road one day and it's really weird cause he is so so hairy on his arm but he have no hair on his forearm.I thought people with hairy hands will have same amount of hair on the arm and forearm.Weird and quite vomit inducing.
While I was buying stuffs in pasar Philippine the seller was distracted a few times by her friends coming to talk to her so I got bored and I look at the paper that her friend slipped to her hand this one time.I saw on that paper ilmu hitam atau ilmu sihir - *phone number*.Scary.One more scary thing,there's one subuh I woke up and heard a girl and a guy quarreling and the guy was shouting really loud and the girl asking for help.I should go help right but I was too scared.Drama betul la this hotel.
On the fourth day I went to kinabalu park which the time to travel there took 2 hours.It turns out to be just a lookout point where you can see mount kinabalu from far.I was like wtf that's it?I asked my mom but she said there will be more but the tour guide just brought us to this hot spring afterwards where there were too many people.I don't know if it's the tour guide's fault but if visitng kinabalu park is just that don't bother going unless you plan to climb the mountain.
Overall I think that there weren't much places to visit in kota kinabalu and it's hard to find food too.Unless you love shopping for brooch and pearls the trip there will be boring.If you wanna visit there go with your friends and visit the islands or climb the mountain in sabah instead or if you just wanna visit kota kinabalu just visit for maybe 2 days.I guess sabah is still a developing state but I don't think that I can live there if I have to.I'd rather stay in kelantan instead.It's just different there.The people,the food.I'm suprised that some people that I know who were from sabah don't look like they came from there.I'm sorry if this is harsh it's just a personal opinion.Wow such a long post.End.

Birthday again
Another birthday shout-out.Told you this is an eventful month.This time is for my bro.Today is his 26-th birthday so Happy Happy Birthday!!
I wish on his birthday this year,he would just realize how much potentials he have in him.I think he was among the people that was destined for the greatest things that life could offer.I have so much confidence in him that I don't think that I could ever have the same level of belief in myself.I think he is a very very smart person and he can do so much more in his life if he just grab all the chances and take actions.I'm not saying all these because he is my brother but I would still have the same feelings even if I am just an outsider.So my wish for his birthday is for him to know all these.
Again Happy Happy Birthday!!!
End.

I came back to penang for the weekend.Sorry patin i tak inform u cause i tak dpt nak squeeze in time nak jumpa u.Anyways, I came back for my cousin's wedding.The wedding is actually at sg. petani which is the hometown of my cousin's wife.The reception was done in front of the bride's house in the afternoon so can you just imagine how hot it is?It felt like the sun was just a few inches from us.We can't even stay long for the photo sessions cause it's so hot we were sweating like nobody's business.Plus I guess the heat makes us felt tired faster and I was very sleepy cause I woke up super early at 6am.Then at night some of my relatives stayed at the hotel in penang and they didn't felt like going out for dinner so my mom bought them some food and we delivered the food to their hotel.I then went out for dinner with my bro cause we didn't felt like eating the food that we brought.The restaurant that we went to was quite packed with people (it's saturday night) so as soon as we sat down we didn't even take the time to look at the menu to order.At the same time that we reach there,there's also another couple there but they took way longer time than us to decide on what to order.So imagine my suprise when they get the food first.The best thing is that I saw their gesture cause their table were just a few steps from ours and I knew that they told the waiter that weren't what they ordered but they took the food anyway.I waved frantically to the waiter trying to get his attention to tell him that it was actually our order that he delivered to the couple but the waiter didn't notice me.I was super super pissed so I blurted rather loudly 'stupid stupid stupid'.Then the food for the couple arrived and that's when the waiter realized his mistake.Of course la too late kan.I saw the senior waiter scolding the waiter that made the mistake but I still gave them the shittiest (got such word?) face that I can gave to them.I blurted rather loudly again how I annoyed I was.There were so many times that these things happened to me but the reason i was more annoyed this time is because I was rather hungry and also having a major headache.I just wanna eat and popped down some pills and sleep.The senior waiter did wait at the counter until our order was finally ready.He didn't even deliver other orders while at that.When he delivered the food, I felt this huge pang of guilt cause I acted rather childish and mean giving a very bitter face and all.So I tried to smile at him but he didn't take a look at me.Sigh.I think the waiter that made the mistake was new.I guess I felt guilty because all this while if the same thing happened to me,the waiter wouldn't even try to fix the situation.I will just end up not getting anything but this waiter did try to fix it.This might sound shallow but I told my bro I was rather mad because even if the couple wanna take our food pun at least let the person have a decent look la.I said this because looking at the couple,the guy have a really bad haircut.It look quite rempit-ish.But my bro said that even if he look perfect I would still find some other faults that I can blame on him.True.
Anyways,I don't think it's a good idea la to have a wedding in front of the house with the malaysian like weather.It's so scorching hot and it seriously kills all the joy and mood.
Any of you saw the parliament proceedings?What's up with the kinabatangan MP?I just don't get how people still vote for him time and time again.The way he talks which is so so rude and the level of respect he showed to other people makes him look like he have a very low IQ and his parents should do a better job in teaching him manners while he was a kid.Instead of looking like an MP he look like some Ah long/leader of kumpulan kongsi gelap sesat in parliament.Heck even they can talk in nicer ways than him.Sigh.End.

Birthday again
I think I can say that May is one of the most eventful months in my calendar.For this year that is.What with the birthdays,the upcoming weddings (not mine la),the parents anniversaries and there could be more but I can't remember for now.Today happens to be patin's birthday!! So Happy Happy 24th Birthday Fatin@eggtopia@patin@pematinan@fatified@.... (I seems to give her so many nicknames,I can only remember all these for now).Rasa tua tak fatin?hahaha.
I can't believe I've already known you for 6 years.It might not sound long to others but to me it is remarkable cause you are among the first group of people I knew in MMU.I think I already blog a lot about patin (or maybe not),about her weird penggunaan tatabahasa,about her weird hobbies,about her funny antics but to me you are a whole lot more.You must have been one of the most independent girl I've known.You rarely find the need to rely on others,you settled your own problems,you enjoyed your own company very much,you rarely felt lonely....it's so admirable to me cause I wish I could be like that.In addition to that, I don't know if you realized this but you were always there for me when I'm in trouble,I guess that's why you were among the first few people I thought about when I needed help.
I wish your upcoming days will bring you lots of joy and you can achieve whatever you wanted in life.I believe in you and I will always be there for you whenever you need help...though it's very rare for me to be the person who do the rescuing instead of being rescued haha.End.
