Officially engaged

July 21st, 2008

Never thought that this was possible two years ago but its true. We are now officially engaged. I came to her house early at around 5pm to help out with the preparations, then I sped off to the Masjid Jamek Pontian (and to answer a previous question, yes, its the Pontian located before Tanjung Piai) to meet up with my entourage and to bring them there at around 8pm. It all went pretty smoothly I feel. In just an hour the package was upgraded from Girlfriend 1.0 to Fiancee 2.0.

So now that I have no more personal distractions (at least for the time being), you should see me going back to my usual programme for this blog pretty soon.

To Johor and back again

December 25th, 2007

So I drove all the way to Johor to send my grandmother to Muar and my two cousins to Batu Pahat. After that I drove all the way to Pontian to see her before I make the journey back home. I left home at 2pm on Monday and arrived back home today at 5am.

Not bad I guess for someone who have only recently discovered the joys of long-distance driving. Covering the west coast Johor trial in one day can actually be a rewarding experience. Looks like I will not be taking the bus from now onwards unless absolutely necessary. And I found out that I do like to drive at night. I certainly find it much more easier and less tiring but only if you had ample rest and the mental readiness before embarking on your journey.
