Last day!

Last day in KL!

Tears ain't a falling yet but I'm on an emotional roller coaster, one minute I'm deliriously happy, the next just fucking emo.

Being with my wonderful family and friends has made these 3 months the best way to pump myself up for the tough year ahead.

It's very hard to say goodbye to these people in my life, but I hope that I have support when I get back to Canberra.

I will always remember Phuket Crew and the summer we spent together. Where the laughter never stops, the need for sleep ignored, and the love ever flowing.

Good things don't last, but this is one group that will run through my mind for a long time. When I need a pick me up in Canberra, I'll just sit back, think of the good times, smile, laugh at an inside joke, text a Phuket member, or look through our hundreds of pictures.

I love you Phuket Crew.

Chinese New Year

It's CNY again, so happy to spend it with family this year. Although you wonderful people in Canberra do make it bearable and less homesick-ness but yeah nothing beats family.

I intend to :

Collect loads of angpow of course
BOND with family but yet still ignore the kids
Take loads of pictures and videos, preserve all these memories and all that
Not gamble
Spend quality time with people that mean alot to me
Hopefully dance my ass off at a club sometime this week because I'm just itching to
Go to Malacca ? maybe :)

How to CNY spirit in KL you tell me ? Sometimes you just need to do the whole "bundle the family into the car and drive 3 hours to the kampung then isolate the family there with nothing else to do but eat, watch Astro and go to the lousy kampung mall".

In KL, CNY seems like any other normal day except you go for family dinner. But you do that once every few months anyway. And how is it CNY when you still have the option of going out with your friends instead of spamming time with your family?

Weird. CNY seems a tad less special nowadays. But still love it.
