yesterday my family and i went for a trip to Malacca.
actually father wanted to go back to Pontian but then he said never mind, let's go to Malacca. either which, the option were Pontian, Batu Pahat *lolz* or Malacca. so you see the obvious choice right?
seeing adik being so excited with the prospect of the trip, i force myself to sleep early and be strong so that we can go. besides, i've been stuck INSIDE the house for two weeks. solid two weeks. so at around 8 o'clock off we went with father driving the car like, very slow i became sleepy too soon.so i sleep in the car hahaha. then we stopped at this Pasar Karat in Kesang (there's Pasar Karat everywhere lulz) and we went around watching all the tins and kinks and then! i spot this gold!
Roots by Alex Haley
i was like, so excited because i've been searching for this book for, like, two years and now i found it and soon i got it off the seller for RM 10. if only the seller knew the true value of this great literary piece, he won't sell it for RM10. rezeki weh! so being a maniac bookworm, i read a little as soon as the car hit the road but my right arm was starting to get painful again so i sleep before anything happen hahaha.
upon reaching Banda Hilir, i was expecting a whole day-long of adventure going tot he museums and historical sites (like i've done so many times before hahahah) but God said it was not meant to be because all the museums and a large part of Dataran Pahlawan were closed to make way for renovation. would you believe that i won't be able to explore Stadhuys again until 2014 because of the renovation??? torture!
down and depleted, i was. but then we went to this one art museum situated next to the great Christ Church where i had a pretty decent time watching paintings. i'm a fan of history, not art so forgive me for unable to understand some of the Picasso-like paintings displayed. it would have been better if Along was there because then it would be enjoyable because he will be the one talking about them to us the little sisters hehehe. but there were some amazing paintings on display nevertheless.
hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil.
for better protest!
mom going colour block hehehe
father focusing.
i love this painting so much!
the one bigger than me. XD
the painting above and below is very interesting! if you look closely,
the words are made up of human figure in various pose.
sadly, no Johor. :(
older day Malacca.
i don't know what this is.
she's always striking funny pose. hehehe
it wasn't a very long trip actually but i had fun because i rarely had the chance to go on trips with my family nowadays now that all of us turn into grown up and adik is busy with her school and i rarely go back home and let's face it, there's too many obstacle. so i tell myself that i must ignore my condition today and just go out with them. just get down and immersed in the activities. so we took pictures, had pictures taken for us in that nice wooden frame from the brother who ran here and there, had ice cream, i bought perfumes for mom from these UIA students selling them. well, i just don't wanna listen to them talking for so long so take my money and go go go lahh. but the perfume is nice and mo m like it.
i'm always up for trips no matter how long or how far but perhaps the timing is not really suitable so i sleep all the way back to Muar out of fatigue. haihh faster recover Oddblogger! but now that my favorite places in Malacca are closed for renovations, then where am i going for my trip next time? hmmmm. ahh i should just go to KL and meet Along and get him to take me to all the nice eateries and we can eat until we get buncit tummy hehehe.
next time i must go to Jonker Walk!
Salam.
