nursing a cold

Hello! I know it's been ages since I last written and even then I've been letting the pitures do all the talking.. lazy and sneaky I know. But I also write only when inspiration stirkes and really if there's nothing to write about, hm, then why waste all the creative juices and use up the brain cells?

Nope. It's not that anythying interesting has been going on. It's been more than a week now since I came back and as the title suggests, I've been down with the cold just recently. My throat is sore, I can't stop sneezing and my ears are blocked. The house was in order when I came back. Thank God for having my Ah Ma around to look after all at home. She's now back in Muar after nearly three weeks in PJ and will soon start making her New Year 'Nian Gao'. My Lucky boy was happy to see me, and as usual he was even happier for his daily walks. Hehe. My sis is the same old, all happy and talkative and droning on and on about her recent trip to London. (Thanks Yiyi, she really had a blast there, though the weather was too cold according to her..hehe). Dad is well. He can bend his knee already and though still walks with a slight limp, can ferry us around so we're not stuck at home like prisoners. Okay, don't call me ungrateful, am glad that he's near perfect of course!

And though I had a list of to-dos before I came back, I'm no where near the end of the list! Went out with Ann Li to KLCC the first Saturday I came back. She's still the same old. Haih, always complaning where there's no need! Hahahah, but yes, still the same old laughable, straight forward buddy! Also got to rediscover the life I've been away from- the Pasar Malam, the great Nasi Lemak breakfast, Roti Tisu, Roti Telur, Durian, the hot and uhumid weather, the great great shops and family...very nice.

Also got a haircut. Damn I hate it so much. I thought I learnt a lesson last year already. Told myself I won't ever go back to the same hair dreeser...Went to the same place last year and it was a freaking disaster! I wanted a Mandy Moore 'do but got a Jimmyy Neuron (that cartoon, the name correct?) spike.. Look's like I never learn...This year, I wanted my almost shoulder-length hair to be a tad bit shorter with a fringe, she gives me a fringe that is impossibly short, and short hair that makes me look so 13, so mentah lah.. so much for the maturity.
