Being busy with work doesn't mean we couldn't get time for celebration. It was my colleague; writer, Ker-hsin's birthday last Thursday. My editor thought of giving her a surprise outing but instead we went for dinner and movie. Five of us went which includ our intern-staff, PeikSee. We watched Martian's Child. It was a good story to most mums out there as the story about a boy being neglected from life as an orphan. Michele, another writer baked some cupcakes for her birthday and they were delicious home-baked chocolate cupcakes!!! 5 stars rating for that cupcakes! :) After the movie which finished about past 9pm, we headed to have some desert like McD Flurry ice-cream. Then I suggested to take some pictures of all of us.
Last Friday night I followed my ex-collegemate, Castina and her brother back to their hometown at Batu Pahat. We got invite to attend one of our ex-collegemate, Szee Khi's wedding. So I decided to take leave on the next Monday to have a getaway from bustling city/work. It was totally a peaceful trip though it was boring most of the time. FYI: this time I missed my voting.
Early Saturday morning I followed Castina for her voting. Then we went for her car to be serviced. While waiting we went for breakfast at nearby warung for nasi lemak. After finished with the car being serviced, we headed to her mum's kopitiam to help her clean the black chickens. Her mum's kopi-O drink was good that I couldn't taste better in KL. Later we went for shopping.
On Sunday morning, we went to the town for praying at the oldest temple in Batu Pahat. Then in the afternoon, we get to prepare for attending the wedding lunch. The lunch was tasty because most of the dishes were different served from KL.
In the night, we went for 'cari-makan'/for foods. I told Castina to bring me to eat that something different from KL that we hardly could eat. We eat desserts. We ate roti planta. Then we went to their famous spot of nightlife at the fountain. It was a memorable day to build the fountain on special occassion of their anniversary (dunno whether it 100th... hmmm).
During the stay at Castina's house, she showed me her photo album of her childhood pictures and collegetime. There's a picture that I spotted which I couldn't recall when it was taken. It was pretty long time where Castina told me we went for photography assignment along with the lecturer at the Lake Gardens. :) Can you spot me?
Really thankful to Castina and her family for the hospitality stay at their house especially to her mum! :)
On 11th March - Ken's birthday. Type less here but let the pictures speak itself. But one thing for sure, he was totally half drunk which showed the dark side of him... scary but humorous and entertaining. LOL.
On 15th-16th March - Anne's wedding. She is my ex-collegemate, yah, another collegemate's wedding.
In the morning, me, Zoyee and Coco was part of her chee-muis during the ceremony. There nothing much to shoot that time cos the Groom's heng-tais were sober and not sporting, kinda quiet. On Sunday nite itself, it was crowded. The foods were ok but slow to be served. I'd just wish Anne and her hubby happily married and may the happiness bloom their new chapter of life, always.
Seem most of the friends were married or getting married or having their new born child or got children. I AM SO LAID BACK...
