merdeka`

i hav no idea where i was and what i did on merdeka day the previous year...

i culd hav just stayed home, i culd hav gone out for some revelry.. the blog at friendster has been deleted as i hav opted to cancel my account.. i checked my photo albums but nope, there's none dated 31aug'08. So, yeah, i guess there's no way of finding out now.. :)

this merdeka day however, coincided with a long weekend. Great~! it doesnt even feel monday now..

was at malacca with the gang on saturday and sunday... the banglo we took at A Famosa resort was a steal at RM400 for one night. with four fully ACed rooms, super large beds, and very clean everything, we all nodded approvingly as we arrived and nodded even more as we left on sunday..

each lot comes with its own pool (chest-deep... we found out later)

airy spaces with lots of window panels... with kitchen and very clean too~

the pool came in handy when the beer games kicked in~ go figure!

as the night got younger, and the beer ran out, alex and christine drove out for more...

beer sessions aside, this trip to malacca, we did somewhat covered the town area as well... the gang's quite a shy lot, so photos are far & few.... :)

instead of the usual mustavs chicken rice balls, we opted for this.. Nyonya cuisine... which was also, packed to the brim... Ole Sayang~

we tried to hav satay celup at Capitol for supper... but the queue was just too mindboggling.. and it seemed to grow longer as the night did... anyhow, compensation came in the form of some thirst-quenching ice-kacang along Jonker street...

the mustgo Jonker Walk... yeah, if you cant beat 'em, join 'em ya?

so we braved the crowd and finally, this is the first time i actually walked the whole length of the street, to reach a nice spectacle... some group of ladies were having this open line-dancing activities of some sort .. haha~ yes, i guess malaccans are truly an active lot...

reachin' kl in less than an hour after parting ways with the gang in seremban, dicing session kicked in at hartamas with my usual gang... :)

to which i must say, hartamas is now a far cry compared to like some few years ago..

as we all recalled, available parking spots were a privilege then, and you'd hav to jam your way across its narrow one-laners...

but last night... hmm... we culd practically choose our parking spots, and sadly too, many of the outlets werent even opened.

Black Hole... that's where we were last night... it seemed to be the only outlet decent enuff to park our a$$es... :)

but then, the highlight of the nite.... taa-dah: the sup kambing at PELITA... hahhahah... it was indeed marvellous~!!.. its been ages since ive had sup kambing this good... :)

and i shall find my way to be back for more...

maybe that's why when we reached the block at Segambut by our men-in-blue, when asked "dari mana cik?", our dear fren replied.. "pelita". im sure they would smile approvingly and let us through.... hahah!!
