melaka bonding

The past weekend, I should have been in KL, slogging in dad's office, cursing as I sweat over stacks of incomprehensible work... But thankfully, an 'always-oh-so-full-of-initiative' uncle called and there we were, one 'vanful' of uncles and aunties, with dad & I, all on our 2.5hr journey to magnificant Melaka, for a 2D1N adventure. Yeah, I know, it seems like I'm overdosing myself on family bonding this break. But really, I enjoyed every second of it.

I must confess. I have sinned. BIG BIG TIME. Said earlier I'd check into a nunnery and go vegetarian for some days, but hell... no. In Melaka, there's no place for nuns. There's only chicken rice balls, nonya assam fish curries, sweet-and-sour vinegar fried prawns, belecan kangkong, soft tender satays, ice-cold coconuty chendols, rich creamy durians, fragrant tao sah piahs all around... It's Ready, Get Set, Go from the minute we set foot on Melaka soil!

I promise I promise. From tomorrow onwards,
1) I'd watch my diet - it'd be plain old simple teochew muey for some days to come.
2) I'd work hard - it's now down to the last precious week to clear all stuff before big black hell breaks loose again.

This break has been good. I've done everything except work. =). If ma's around, it'd have been purr..fect, with a capital P.

Alright, take care dears, half of 2005 has just passed us by.
