Captain Dayn has spoken, it’s now my turn :)
Hmm.. Where should I start? 2008 has been a year of turning points with extreme ups and downs for me. And I can’t imagine other better alternatives to end my “happening” year than doing this trip. It was what I needed exactly and I got more than I expected. Despite spending more than what I’d budgeted for this trip and I’ve to go on tight budget this month, it’s definitely worth it. Hahaha….
For me, this trip was more of an escapade or getaway from the hectic life in the city and to experience impromptu trip for real. Things that I’ll deeply miss or never forget:
1.The excitement or thrill of the unknown - “where to next?” decision was made on-the-spur -of-the-moment.
2. Going around looking like a walking backpack, even mat sallehs’ bags were smaller than us.
3. Chilling out with foreign friends like Tom & Michael (Gosh.. They are just so cute) and bringing them to taste local spicy food.
4. The fun and fear riding on a jet ski due to my lack in swimming.
5. Basking at the beach with my swimwear, shades and sexyness day and night.
6. Listening to the same songs at the beach bar over and over again everyday.
7. Baba Guest House at Batu Ferringhi.
I was super reluctant to return to KL but whether I like it or not, I know I have to. I reached home, unpacked my stuff, Facebooked, checked tones of emails, saved pictures onto my laptop etc. I slept at 4 in the morning and woke up around noon, feeling my soul is still in Ferringhi. After I’ve freshen myself, I decided to go out to have lunch alone, just outside my house. My usual self will just try to scrap something at home but somehow I had the urge to go out. It is just so weird. I had my lunch accompanied with herbal tea instead of coconut water, while watching cars, bikes and trucks passed by instead of watching the waves hit the sand and people enjoying themselves at the beach. I really miss the sound of the waves and the cool sea breeze. This is something I need to get used to. I was in a dreamland but now I’m back to reality whereby some of my thoughts will just remain wishful. Anyway, after a week’s session of recuperating and rejuvenating myself, I’m back with a more sound and clear mind and I managed to sort out some of my thoughts over lunch just now. I’m left with less than a week before I start work again, thus I better treasure my time and make full use of it. It’s high time for me to recover stuff that I’ve been avoiding and chucked underneath the carpet. Gambateh!!
This is just a short sharing of my emo portion. Stay tuned with us for thorough updates ;)
