My God ! It has been a long while since I've updated this ! Yes.. alot of things have been going on for the past 1.5 months or so.Last weekend of the month of May. Went to my mum's hometown near Desaru. That was a well-deserved getaway for me and my family. Drove there, with the Punto Grande. Made a few ladies scream in the car LoLoL.. It was a wedding reception.
Man, I ate like there is no tomorrow ! The rendangs, and the chickens and all. My oh my. Drove there at 9am and reached there like about 11am. Once there, we immediately feast on the food. Mmm..
The chickies over there were alright, but due to the outrageous hot weather, I decided to hide in the car from 1.30pm onwards, parked under a tree, blast the aircon up, and got myself a power nap... yeah.. 2 hour powernap.
Thank God for the nap, cause then my family decided to tag along to usher the groom to the bride's place ! Convoy of cars went over, including ours, then stopped over at the house. It was so traditional, with the kompang, bunga manggar and all the zanji people. Went into the bride's house. Mmm.. more chickies :-p Oohh my.. awesome.. wish I wore my transition :-p
We then head to the chalet after all that was over. Air con. Immediately grabbed a quick shower. Went to Pekan Sungei Rengit. Yup, you got that right. It is a small town centre. Purely awesome. Had a light dinner there before the BBQ. Did some light shopping to cover the necessities. Yummy satay. God.. Then head back to the chalet for BBQ. Ooh man, simply awesome. Chilli stingray, some bite sized steaks, chicken wings. God..
Don't want to talk about life in Singapore. Felt abit sad when I drove back. Things are much more slower, and steadier in Desaru than here. I don't know. Need to find better reasons to come back other than wedding receptions or Aidil Fitri. Talked to my mom about the other reason. Cos I gave up on that already...
I fell in love with the place, the food, the peace, the serenity, the calm of it all.
I think... I need to fall in love with someone in there...
Thanks Mom.
