..:: nak order ketam?? ::..

so today i had alot to do.

woke up to a noisy house. the ns boy had his friend's over. sheesh. i never knew that young indian girls could make such high pitch sounds!! i'm like the alto version of an indian girl. haha. anyway, they were really irritating. one of them screamed so loud, and with such a high pitched voice..i bet if we had a crystal chandelier..it would have shattered. i almost snapped at her. but..i snapped at haikel instead. haha.

enough about that, i headed to the travel agent to return my tickets for them to process the refund. reached there, the entrance of their outlet was surrounded with mats. sheesh. i never knew that bugis attracted so many mats!! and i LIVE around there! hahaha. anyway, the lady i spoke to was quite friendly. even asked about nenek. that's sweet. better than the last time when i called and they were being so bitchy. hmph. but, thanks to her for all the help. appreciate it!!

then i headed to khai's place. the main point of going to his place was to leave andrea's bag there and head to the hospital. but khai said it's dumb cos we'll be having dinner out and it wouldn't make sense to go back to his place to take the bag and go back to her place since we were so near anyway. so...i lugged the bag along to the hospital.

nenek HAS lost weight. her eyes look so sunken. she's got dark rings. her cheek bones are showing. really2 showing. quite sad. and she doesn't talk as much. and you can forget about seeing her smile. her smile is so rare now that it has become the most precious thing. but i dunno why..when i see her smile, i feel like crying. heh. i guess i just treasure that moment. hmmm...

i just sat and stared at her while i was there. i hate hospitals. and i never know what to say. and to tell you the truth, old and sick people kinda scare me..... sorry. they just seem so fragile. and i really feel like i might break them. i know, stoopid right? i dunno. i just have that weird thinking.

she was quite sleepy and drowsy so we let her dose off. she kept drifting in and out of sleep. we just let her be.

i feel more comfortable with her when i'm just with khai. if there are other people there, i feel very awkward. i dunno what to do. and i can't say or do the things i want to cos i feel like i'm just an outsider visiting. i'm not really family anyway. so, yeah. feels awkward. i'm sorry if i seem emotionless, i just freeze when i know people are watching my EVERY move.

after the visiting, we headed for Al-Ameen for dinner. since my cuzzie Fahm keeps eating there, and keeps saying the naan is good, i decided that today would be a good time to try it. so we did. and...well...it was GREAT! weeee!! thanks Fahm!! :)

I used to eat there when i was living at Hillview. then since we moved, i never went there again. now, after just 5 years, the whole place has CHANGED tremendously!! it is much bigger then i remembered it to be! totally expanded.

i remember we used to eat there after touch rugby training when i was in J.I [now known as M.I.]. so much fun. haiz. wish i could do it all over again!! [without all the politics!]

we ordered more than naan! haha. we had keema, kebab, tandoori chicken, aloo gobi [potato and cauliflower], kerang rebus [boiled cockles], lala in hot&spicy sauce and ikan pari bakar [bbq stingray]!! **slurp**

and i had Milo Godzilla!! weee!! long time never had that!! so shiok!!

daya enjoying her kerang!
