It was unbelievably hot, but it was fun nonetheless :) Felt like our younger years, except the fact that we're no longer 17.
I love how Penang never fails to amaze me. And Syena IS the best tour guide ever - it's an added advantage that we both are ridiculously talented in acting as if we're both tourists. Bought scarves and whatnots; I still can't get over how different it was when I was in Japan - feel like buying everything in those scarves stalls cause everything's just so cheap! Compared to Japan, of course.
Anyhow, I realize it's been so long since I blogged about something. I mean, something real. Usually the need to write/blog comes first cause I've been busy, neglecting the one thing I really feel I find solace in - rather than the feeling of wanting to blog. If I make any sense.
I realize I don't know how to live with my family anymore. I mean, permanently. Somewhere in my mind, I guess there's always that feeling of 'not being permanent' - that I'm going to go away somewhere, some time, somehow. Rather than being the musafir, I realize I'm just..not. Anymore. I might move out, again, some time; due to my work, but this time it just feels different.
I guess I just miss being independent. Not having the need to ask permission to go somewhere. Not having to face relatives coming to your house at random times. Maybe I've been away far too long.
Time to revise, Atil.
Am currently reading The White Queen by Philippa Gregory. I don't know about the reviews, but so far I can tell it's good. But that might not be an entirely fair comment, coming from a history buff like me.
just remember your nawaitu for comin back home, and maybe u wanna read back ur post about atok u blogged last time. ask urself where did all the determinations and promises u made has gone.
ReplyDeletesince uve been shoppin, i think there should not be a problem for u to chip in as well for the 'plan' next wkend? Kakni and me are on a tight budget atm.
