Merdeka!Merdeka!Merdeka!


Was used to staying up late at night on the 30th of august watching the countdown on tv as we await for the clock to strike midnight...(31st august is my country's independence day...)


This year however was something different...First fact was that my country,Malaysia will be turning the biggy 50 this year...(meaning bigger n better celebrations than any of the other years...)Second unfortunate fact was that i am few thousand miles away from the one time where my country turns 50!!!!!Yeapx..and come to think of it,though at first i just dismissed that it was just like any other independence day celebration in Malaysia,i was proven wrong.


Reading about my mate describing it n even my parents..(didnt know they too were enthusiastic bout it...)makes me regret a lil bout not being home to celebrate it...My family went out 2 dinner on tat day..(my 2 cousies n my dad filled me in bout the dinner which was of course topped up with delicious looking food!!!!)wat i miss most about family get-togethers are the conversations n the laughter we share during the meal..The reminising bout wat me n my bro were up 2 when we were young,updates bout each n every member at the dinner,general stuff,things bout the future...etc...ah!!!!those good old times..cant wait 2 get back 2 malaysia!!!


Happy 50th b'day Malaysia!!!!!


ps:thanks cousie for the updates n the mouth-watering shots of the food...hehe...=P
