Of everything Malaysian...

Somehow, when I woke up today, something felt different.... I thought of what my family was doing at home... how they're preparing for Chinese New Year *although I know they never do* It's the same every year. Maybe it's because my family ain't traditional, and they don't like decorating their home with a bunch of red stuff... but something about this festive season reminds me... of home...

I know I'll miss grandma's specialty dishes this CNY. I know I'll miss playing card games and mahjong with the little cousins.. *no, we don't gamble with money* it's more with peanuts and sunflower seeds :) Hehehehe... and of course, I'll miss just being with my family...

Speaking of feeling Malaysian, a few of us went to Box Hill the other day, to have Kayu Nasi Kandar. :) Yes, they've got a franchise here, all the way across the continent... in Melbourne.


My super duper spicy squid nasi kandar.

I remember when my family used to go to Cheow Yang, to this tiny stall, to have nasi kandar... cause dad likes it. Now, the stall has evolved into a double shop lot, with air conditioning and all... AND they've got branches everywhere now. How times have changed....

I remember the pasar malam days, with my mates during our college days... where we'll just walk around, and buy take-away food... and just eat along the way. Then we'll catch up again in front of Cheow Yang restaurant when we're all done :) Memories.... We practically did everything together those days... except for studying... hehehehe. Those were the days!


Ade & Jian Wen enjoying their food **can't be bothered to pose for the camera**

Anyway, here are more pics of us... Heheheh.


Mei & Jon savouring the yummy food... Although I found it too spicy for my liking!


A better one of Ade & Jianz...


Us again...

Well, just a random post, cause I'm feeling rather sentimental today :( I'll be okay in abit after a shower. Hahaha...

Have a good one everybody! Happy Chinese New Year! Gong Xi Fa Chai! May this year of the pig brings you prosperity and luck, health, wealth.... and of course, whatever you want :D Hehehhehe...

Mom, dad and Funny.... I miss you guys. Although CNY is usually really boring for us. Cause nothing is open, and we're not bgi fans of home visiting. Haha... :P
