Journey Along My Future

Dec 3rd, Saturday

Today we began our journey at around 2pm, after Jordan’s birthday party. Arriving at the airport, we killed time by roaming around Whitcoulls, where I saw the ‘Sudoku’ book I really wanted to buy. But, it was too expensive so I decided against it. Boarded the plane at around 4pm, I think, and the ride was one of the worst plane rides we’d ever had… the back of the plane is definitely the worst place to sit. The aeroplane was shaking so hard, we were all overcame with great dizziness. Arriving at Auckland around 5pm, we had dinner with Auntie Emily, at a Malaysian Satay Restaurant, where I learnt the true art of eating from Auntie Emily’s brother *grin*. After a wonderful night, we all returned to the motel, stomachs bulging fully, tired but happy. Good Night~

Dec 4th, Sunday

Woke up, had a refreshing shower, and ate noodles for breakfast. We continued our long journey today, from Auckland to Brisbane – 3hours, Brisbane to Brunei – 6 hours. What a tiring day! We arrived in Brunei with excitement, grabbed all 7 luggages and zoomed out of the airport. My “big” uncle (the older uncle) greeted us friendlier than the weather. It was steaming hot and humid! With red, sweaty faces, we settled in the car, joined by Ning Jie before driving down to Miri. Upon arrival, we went for a quick supper and ate “kan mien”- dry noodles. We reached my Yiyi (aunty)’s house at around 9.45pm. Almost everyone was there to welcome us with smiling faces. At that moment, I thought to myself, “Finally! We’d arrived safe and sound. Off to bed!!” Good Night~

Dec 5th, Monday

My cousin, Lynthia, took me to her Leo Club Activity today, to visit a home for the disabled. Wearing Lynn Xuan jiejie’s Leo T-shirt, I felt as if I belonged. It was an awesome trip, and I was very touched to see how Leo is helping the needy. At first, I was shocked to see the disabled people, and my heart cries for them. But, I know God will bless them and everything will be fine. We played games and gave presents... well, they did, and I just sat there and contributed by clapping hands. However, it was one of the most amazing experiences I’d ever had, especially when Lyn’s friend had a “conversation” with one of the disabled teenage boy. I don’t know how to describe the miracle happening before my eyes but all I can say is that it touched me so deeply how the boy could try to express how he feels even though his words were slurred and he was trying so hard. Also, I admire Lyn’s friend for his kindness and how he handled the situation. It was quite hilarious though… After the visit, we returned home, went out for a while, for some “window shopping” and the rest of the afternoon is quite a blur. In the evening, Ning Jie, Lynn Xuan Jiejie, Jas, Lynthia, Hui Ning and I went for steamboat at Michael’s Steamboat. I was quite disappointed when I thought Jinn Wei wasn’t coming but he did turn up, so that was great. We had a great dinner, with everyone contributing a little bit of cooking, except for me… *grin*... We took lots of photos with three different cameras, and the hilarious part was taking turns with a photo with Jinn Wei. It was as if he was a famous person, and we were all fighting for a chance to be in a photo with him. But of course all except for Ning Jie, after all, she’s his sister. Hehehe… After that, Jinn Wei left, and we had ice cream for dessert. Everyone had Chocolate, whereas I had Raspberry flavoured. I had a wonderful time and how I wish for a repeat. After dinner and a brief visit to Boulevard, we returned home… bed sweet bed… Good Night~

Dec 6th, Tuesday

Today, 16 of us went to Bintulu. Lyn’s family, Ning’s family, my family, Ning Jie and Mama (grandma) all squeezed into 2 cars (Odessey and Serena). We started at around 6.30am but only arrived in Bintulu at around 11am because we took the new road and found out it was closed after travelling far down it. We stayed in Parkcity Everly Hotel, in four deluxe rooms. In the afternoon, we went for haircuts, before resuming for some shopping at DPS – 20Sen. Again, I didn’t buy anything. I was really down and disappointed because I couldn’t meet up with any of my friends. We went to Medan Jaya and had dinner at the restaurant (which I had forgotten the name). My mood cleared with an enjoyable “supper” with Lynthia and Hui Ning. We dined at the Parkcity Everly Hotel’s eating place – not the restaurant… and we had heart to heart talks… after all, there were lots to catch up on – the Goss, the life… It was my treat, and we really had lots of fun. Then, it was photos time, setting the timer and posing in the lobby… *grin*. After passing some time in the room, it was lights out time. I shared the room with Ning Jie, Jas and Lynn Xuan jiejie. Hui Ning had the connecting room so she, Ning jie and I talked till late midnight… It was very interesting and fun. The others had already slept. Then, it was the real lights out time for us. Good Night~

Dec 7th, Wednesday

Woke up at 6am and watched Miss Congeniality 2, even though I had no idea what was going on because I didn’t pay full attention to it. Had fried noodles takeaway for breakfast and left for Miri at around 10.30am. It was a short trip to Bintulu and even though I wasn’t very happy about not meeting my friends, I know that I will have the chance to do so next time. Back in Miri, (I can’t really remember what I did)… maybe we went shopping? Or maybe we did nothing, as we were quite tired? Hmm... My memory is currently blocked, so I can’t remember. One thing I know is – Good Night~ (at the end of the day :P)

This is only a 5-day entry of my holiday. I will continue the rest soon…. Soon. :)

Who's this?.... ♥

I love flying low.
I love interpretations.
I'm cunning and unpredictable, try me.
I reminisce till dawn,
I dream till dusk.
That's coz...
I'm me.
And always will be

S H E R P T S Y
MIMOSA.
there's nothing more to say
If you know me, you know me. If you don't, you don't
