Excited?!

Excited?!

Hahaz...yeah!! My dad coming home tonight!! Haha...he'll be arriving home around 7+ close to 8pm..if there isn't any jam at the causeway...which my dad thinks is highly not possible...and he'll be bringing my favourite mee from Malaysia!! Hahaz...so I'll be getting a late dinner..based on his timing of arrival that is...so currently stuffing my mouth with food to keep me alive til bout 8pm...hahaz...

I keep counting down to his arrival..hahaz...but wait, there's another reason behind it....hahaz...and I'm not telling anyone...it's a secret between me and my family...hahaz...anyway, think he wil bring lots of stuff back...I presume...um...maybe 2 full boxes of dried and frozon food? Hahaz...we always bring back lots of stuff from Malaysia...it's like my grandparents have so many things to give away...hahaz...

Oh...have I told you all before? My grandparents are damn wonderful...although they live in a rather rural countryside, (it's good enough they have a tv...and the town only has one place with internet connections...the Cybercafe.) but the place is great and people are friendly too...it takes great effort to reach the place though...its separated from the main road by a river...pretty wide one...so whenever we visit them, we have to take a ferry across...and guess how long it took my dad to wait for a ferry? nearly 3 hrs!! Hahaz...that was like the record time ever since I start visiting them...and it was said dunno how many years ago that they will be building a bridge across it...I dunno how long it will take but it seem to be not getting done anytime soon...haiz...but once the bridge is up, I wonder what will happen to the ferry business...I mean, business will be down by a lot of times...are they going to continue it? I kind of miss the ride actually......

Ya..back to my grandparents place...they also have this nice and warm house..made up of 2 levels...the lower level is mainly for guests coming in for a visit...they can also sleep upstairs, where the main household stuff is at...they have 2 extra bedrooms upstairs..1 big enough for 4..and the other is 2...it gets pretty cold and nice during the night..that is if you can keep out the insects..hahaz....I mean, what do you expect from a place where the 4 sides of your house is covered by plants and trees and flowers ALL grown by my grandma and grandad? They are really amazing lor...they have all types of friuts grown there...and are mostly my favourite! Durian, rambutan, mango etc....hahaz....all types of vegetables too...I remember the last time I visited, and all the rambutan trees were bright red in colour....all over the tree were rambutans hung there..going to drop at any moment waiting to be picked up and eaten..and they are pretty tasty and sweet!! Hahaz....and to think my grandpa still manages all these now at the age of about 85....very fit huh?...heez......but now and then they have more visitors...because they are after all 80+ people, who needs care from people...they have 10 children..my dad being the youngest, they each take turns to visit them throughout the year....3 in singapore, 4 in malaysia, 1 in US florida and 2 in the UKs....thats why my family only gets to visit my mum's side during Chinese New Year...cause my mum's family base is in Singapore.. Yup..and my dad is a Malaysian but he is PR...

I haven mention another thing...huge one too...my grandparents also own a fish pond...hahaz....and they keep growing and growing....and my family would go and fish them out...using what as bait you might ask...something fishes will always like...something close to nature...hahaz...yupz...earthworms..freshly dug out from the soil..there's plenty of soil there...hahaz....my dad will dig them out and put onto the hook as bait..then we throw the bait in and wait....FISH ON!! Hahaz...my brother used to have caught many of them...then we always bring it back home....they are very fresh and their meat taste sweet...Ah...I wonder my dad got any of them home...well I guess so...if not he wouldn't have bought new fishing hooks before he went to Malaysia...hahaz....he already got everything prepared!!

so you see? my mum has got the fridge cleared for my grandparents' stuff.....and she will be waiting at home with the scissors and dustbin ready...in the kitchen..HAHAz....

Haiz...I still excited....at what he brings home...AND the extra pounds he will put on after the trip....we always gain a few pounds after the trip from Malaysia....hahaz....this time shall not be any different.....anyway, I'll be waiting for my dad to come home too....hmmm.....he must be in the airport right now...his flight is less than an hour away......heez......

Time past really quickly this year huh? Its so fast that 2005 is about to go bye bye to us...and 2006 will be coming right at us...another year has past, and another year has come...wonder what will be installed for me, my family and my friends...still hope we all have a great year ahead.................
