1st Day Back HOME

NOTE: Long wordy boring post ahead. Read only if interested.

I'M BACK!! Actually I've been back since 1st August 8.30am. I know, I know.. I'm supposed to blog on the 1st day itself. Sorry lar, had so much fun, so much to eat, so much to miss, so much to do, until I was dead tired by night. xD

The story about my trip back from Manipal shall wait, the next post perhaps. This post will be about my 1st day back HOME!! As the plane was about to land, we were all counting down. 5! 4! 3! 2.... Then the plane ascended a little, and we were like.. ONEEEEEEEEEEE.. Half a second later, BROOM!!! The plane landed, and loud cheer from within blasted off. The joy on our face was indescribable. Everyone grabbed their personal belongings, and practically rushed out the plane. Everything went on smooth, until waiting for our luggages. I swear if it took any longer, I'd grow spider webs. Anyway, after getting my luggage, I rushed out, knowing that both my parents were already waiting outside KLIA. =D

Upon walking out from the arrival gate, I saw mum, smiling and waving at me. I felt, warm. I was really happy to see her. And after a short walk, there was my dad, driving that familiar looking family car. I was so excited to hop in to the back seat of our car. On the way back, we had so much to talk about, until my dad missed the turning into MEX Highway. We ended up taking the Puchong way back instead. Nvm, longer journey = more time to talk. Haha~~

The 1st place we went was, of coz, HOME!! I was warmly welcomed by my 2 "didi-s", Denny and Mango. Mango was licking my legs non-stop, while Denny was practically climbing on me. Haha~~ I unpacked my stuff, and we went for breakfast, where I had the chance to meet up with my 6th uncle!

Denny and Mango

Entrepreneurs Park Dim Sum is the best ever. Huge SiuMais, solid packed with juicy meat, and a big piece of prawn within, for a very reasonable price. Not only the SiuMai, even the HaGao, YuMai and every other thing. No, I'm not paid to advertise. The moment the 1st tray of DimSum arrived, I started eating like never before. My mum was like "Oh dear you look like you just came out from the jungle!" Haha~~ I love my mum. Knowing that my eating capacity has greatly reduced, I still took ALOT of DimSum. Pity my dad and uncle. They had to help me finish the rest. Haha~~

After breakfast, we visited my grandmother in OUG. From a medical point of view, my grandmother's condition is really bad. But according to my dad, it has improved abit. She has been on bed since few months back, and now she's too weak to even eat. She has a tube which enters through her nose, all the way to her stomach, where liquids can be delivered. She is practically blind, due to side effects of Morphine (a drug to suppress her cardiac problems). My heart broke when I saw her condition. Being a medical student myself, yet I can't do anything to help. If only I was born 5 years earlier.. I have been my grandmother's favourite grandson. And when she heard my voice, I saw her tears 'leaking' out. That instant, I was trying really really hard hold mine back. As weak as she already is, she was trying to call my name. I felt helpless, all I could do was hold her hands and tell her about the happy things that happened in Manipal. To all readers out there, pls pls pls pray for my grandmother. Only a miracle can save her now. Nevertheless, my prayer is that God's will be done in her life.

Later in the afternoon, I slept, for the first time in 5 months, on MY OWN BED!! Oh gosh, the feeling of my smooth and comfortable bed, now that's what I call HOME!! I was already tired like dog by now. In the past 4 days, (3 days of exams and 1 day of post-exam madness+packing), I only slept a total of 11 hours. 11/96 hours. Not bad heh? Haha~

At night, there was cell group dinner with Pastor Philips Koh in my house. Ate dinner, chat-ed abit with cell group members, then went back to my room to MSN. Haha~~ As usual, I can't live without the Internet. xD.. After talking to a few people, it was TIME!!! Time for supper with my closest ever friends. Since some of them will be coming back from work in PC Fair by LRT, I decided to pick them up from LRT station and go straight for supper. Mind you I have not driven a car in 5months! And the feeling of sitting behind a wheel, in my own comfortable car, that familiar feeling was just pwnage!! Met up with TerngSheng, Robin, HannJiunn, WeiHoong and YeunYi and went for Hokkien Mee!! OMG!! HOKKIEN MEE!! and CANTONESE YINYEONG!! WALAO!! Wa ka lu gong hor, 5months, for 5 long months my chorda tympani, glossopharyngeal and external laryngeal nerve (nerves that supplies taste sensation to the tongue.. LOL) have been craving for those. Si Beh Syok ar!!

After sending them back, I reached home at 12am sharp! Haha, Amartya Sen's curfew has made me a good boy. Aww.. xD.. Anyway, that's about all for my 1st day. Stay tuned for my visit to PC Fair, and also my trip back from Manipal + visit to Bangalore city. T a t a ~ ~
