Like usual i went back 2 ipoh twice a month…bt normally i’ll spent at least 3 nites in ipoh bt tis time i juz hav 1 nite ipoh, exactly 24 hrs… well, wit d fyp tat never be pity of me…plus sum asmts n presentations…yeah its killing me…
wit tis limited time 2 spent wit my femly, i eventually bcum so sensitive…i need 2 meet my couz (which 1 of d reason i nd 2 went back 2 ipoh) then i juz went home at ’bout 11pm….there u go, a few hrs left….i bought 1pm ticket coz tats d only one left…wut d heck wit tis ppls? its not hari raye or any public holiday….
then im stayin up late coz i miz my tv, miz my astro….haha…then definitely la i woke up late…n my dad woke me up in a kinda high frequency ‘ila dh kul 11…bus kamu 2 dh le kul 1…kamu gk yg nk mkn mee kicap’…..ah sdih je…im not contented…bt wut 2 do i juz nd 2 get redy….
n then we went 2 mkn mee kicap at my feveret warung…uwah rindu sgt…then tbe2 im craving 4 roti boy n ask my dad 2 go 2 tesco…..lg skali kene mrh…’pgi je le bakery dpn tuh…jauh nk kene pth blk…merepek kamu nih…..’ uwah sdih lg…i’ve been touched again…then i juz bought tis bread which act i use 2 eat at a very oskool coffee shop near 2 my late opah house…uwah missing tat moment when i use 2 eat roti bkr tat been toasted wit charcoal… i was 3 or 4 or 5 back then…i will mkn d roti bkr wit half cook egg n drink in d small oskool chinese cup… n my mum use 2 ask 4 teh ais kaw kaw….
