Heading to UncleHood - Part II

My Birthday...

Today is my birthday. Last year, my birthday was real noisy and I could not really enjoy most of it. So, this year I wanted a peaceful birthday. I celebrated my birthday out of town, when i said town it's really a town, in a small town call Melaka. And what a great birthday it was to celebrate with my closest of friends. It was fun and the food was great...i slipped a bit on my weight watchers...oops! Everyone had fun and my money was well spent for a 2 days 1 night stay at Melaka Riviera.

No, I did not get any O2 XDA II for my presents. Neither have i blown any candles, n0t that I don't want to, just that the bakers do not carry that many candles. Anyway, I need all the breath in me to do other things for the rest of the day like having a choatic dinner eating "Satay Cellup" and the breath taking lunch on "Chicken Ball Rice". Yup the rice the shape and size of a buffallo's testicles. If you can take on this famous ball, you can take on all type of balls known to mankind.

Driving around Malacca town was crazily torturing, sometimes painful because you can't seem to get to the place when you know it's right there, for example Jonker's Street (known locally as "Antiques Street"). Most of the time, I got to rely on my instinct and obviously we always ended up at the place where we came from. Freaky it seemed like we were in twilight zone. So going around in circles isn't a fun thing to do unless your stereo is playing The Beginning Is The End Is The Beginning. Well, I'm quite pleased with what Jonker's had to offer cause wandering along unfamiliar paths often leads us to beautiful things. Overall, I walk the walk and talk the talk till I can't take no more crafties. I must admit I've not seen Coconut shell cut in half made into a purse and the amount of shops selling insence stuff, even coffee shops sells them. Yeah, a coffee shop that look and felt like Starbucks for the price you pay for a cup of fresh, tasteless, colourless Tomato Juice, so called health drink, rip-off.. cough cough!

I'm not going to blab on, anyway everyone had been to Melaka at one time or another, you'd know how it is.... cheers!
