Dear Mr Journal,

its late.. but i cant seem to sleep.. so i think i might as well give an entry bout my trip to malaysia.. well.. firstly the trip was suppose to be from 19th to 23rd June which is today to coming wednesday... however, at last minute my dad's boss said that he can only take leave earlier cause during the date we were expecting to go, there were important guest expected.. so yeah.. it was made to one week earlier.. so it became last sat to last wed... almost the same la... but then during that time, there was another aunt already staying at the house.. the house by the way is a family house.. any family member can jus like go there and stay la.. but that they have to make sure the place is kept tidy and stuff la... so anyway.. that aunt was to leave on sunday.. so it didnt really matter much... u see, i have this problem of not being that sociable with my relatives... i donno why.. i jus dont seem to click with them... it doesnt matter as i have perfected the art of self-entertainment... lol..

anyway... i found out later on that another uncle was supposed to have arrived the same day if my dad's boss didnt pull the leave forward... but this uncle is one that i super duper dont click with... and they have 5 children... whoah... wad a riot.. so the change of plans was kinda a blessing in disguise...haha... well, as i believe that everything happens for a reason...

anyway, let me begin with details of Day 1... it was a saturday and we off to leave for malacca on those tour bus.. it was supposed to be a 4hr journey.. or so i've been told... anyway.. the bus was to leave at 10am.. yes.. AM.. ave maria... shish... why so early... i oso donno la.. so i struggled out of bed.... and packed my stuff into my luggage bag.. u noe those with wheels and u can pull one... yeah.. so i got everything ready... i was so happy.. then i started to pull the bag everywhere around the house... and guess wad... the bloody wheel gave way... the little shit died on me... i cant bloody pull the bag anymore... and u cant exactly carry it as it is that much... ditto.. so i had to rearranged everything into another bag... but this one didnt have wheels... those kind u carry type.. darn it... after unloading the stuff from the previous luggage, i needed like 2 bags to fit my stuff.. darn it.. i cant imagine carrying those two bags... darn.. my father told me i die die can only bring one bag.. darn it.. where to put all my stuff... well my mother said that the amount of stuff i was bringin for a 5 day trip to malaysia was like i was moving overseas to study or smthing... well aparently i found that i shouldnt have brought like 15 sets of clothes.. so i reduced it to 10 sets.. well it was a squeeze.. but i will manage..

anyway... so we were all ready and stuff.. and left for the bus station.. i have no idea where it was located... but the station was the place where all the singapore-malaysia buses were.. and the only thing i remembered bout the location was that it was beside singapore casket... lol.. well talk about an omen... so the ride began... after a while i realized that i wasnt feeling quezy at all.. no motion sickness... wooohooo.. anyway.. after the custom checks and stuff, i fell asleep watching so many trees along the road on the way in malaysia...

the next thing i knew when i woke up was dat we have reached a stop.. u noe those type of place where u can go toilet, eat or watever... we were given 20mins.. how sufficent.. well.. jus had drinks and went to piss... after that it was continuing the ride... anyway.. to jus cut everything short here.. the driver took some detours along the way cause there was a number of ppl who wanted to get down at Muar... so that took a slightly longer time... anyway... when i knew it.. we reached malacca at the house at 5.. so its was like 6 hours trip.. well how fun is that right...

so when we reached, my relatives were not home.. maybe they went out or wadever... we were hungry and it was about time to have dinner.. well.. so we settled our bags at one place and left for the shops near thr house... thankfully, we're not living in those ulu ulu kampong area... the house was located in the town area of malacca... so there was a lot of shops.. cool.. found a nice shop... had some food and stuff.. and yeah, the food was really cheap... but okok onli la in taste.. so after that when we returned, the relatives we not there yet.. so we unloaded our stuff into the room.. after that we watched tv and stuff la.. so like around 11+pm, they all came back.. all eight of them... lol.. they went to the night safari there thats why they were late.. so the elders chatted while the young ones either ran around the house screaming or sat in front of the tv... u'd guess wad i most probablly do.. haha.. so yeah.. jus chilled and watch tv till like 1am.. then my father, uncle and cuzzins wanted to watch Euro soccer thingy... so yeah.. i went to sleep... great first day...

hmm.. i think i update about day 2 and so on, on other days... so thats it for now... there are fotos of the trip under the PHOTOS link under portals... so yeah check it out kk... so till next update, toodles..

yours truly,
ali
