Tiny little memorable things

Delaqroux Inc Updates
Apparently the date for my flight back to Malaysia has been (long) confirmed. It's gonna be the 12th of December. (Note to self: Upon this point, i still dont have my passport. Refer to previous post on how i manage to lost it) Of course, back then, i was really melodramatic on the thought of leaving my life in Aussie. Yep, definitely there's a lot of changes in my life since i got here. The most part of it is the freedom to do things that I want without having anyone telling me that i shouldnt. Life would go back to a hell lot of restrictions when i go back (i.e Mr Arse confiscating my wristband one time claiming that teachers cant wear wristbands.  Fuck you. Fuck you very, very much, thanks) and entering a life of a teacher doubled that fact. But, having dinner at Vintage today made me think of one thing; going back to Malaysia isnt so bad at all - especially coz i know that there's always those tiny little memorable things back at home that i forgot to look forward to.

Here in Aussie, i still carry the hobby of doing food hunts (food hunts [refer to; "food hunting] (n): refers to the action of hunting good places for good food around a particular designated area). And definitely, food in Sydney (also Melbourne, Adelaide and Melbourne) has been surprisingly great. There's this myth on people saying that there's just no place for food outside Asia. Definitely, they're not even looking at all. Anyways, food hunting's been a good hobby of mine. Considering that saying about nice food in Asia; hey, i am going back to Malaysia. And if they say that Malaysia's a haven for good food, then it's time this Devil break all hell lose eh? (Eww.. Cheezy...) And, considering that i will have my food hunt comrades in Malaysia, going back to Malaysia is gonna be one look-forward-to food hunt destination.

Then, there's all the myth busting. It's a term i created to describe the action of busting myths told by people about something. Kinda like the show MythBuster. There's this one time early upon my arrival in Sydney when i ask if it's possible to walk all the way from MacQ uni to the city. They responded, "psshhtt...". I prove them wrong (kudos to Enid Cheah for making this mythbusting possible). Then, there was a time when people said that watching sunset at harbor bridge is awesome. I prove to them that watching sunrise is also awesome (meaning that i had to stay in the city for the first ray of light to pop up). Point is; myth busting is just pure fun. Too fun that i forgot that it's something i did alot back in Malaysia as well. And come to think about it, there's still a hell lot of myths left unbusted back in Malaysia still. I'll be back to bust every one of em.

Finally, there's the travels. I remember how i used to say that if there;s one thing fun to do in OZ, it will be the travels - especially unplanned ones where i end up walking to point A to B with no maps, no compass, no one telling me not to go there (except for the hikers at Cradle Mt. who told me not to hike that time - i went up to the top anyways ;p). Of course, i will miss the sights in Australia but hey, i realize that for a travel junkie like me, i never did much of travels in Malaysia. It's a good thing that i am going back to Malaysia. It's not that big of a country and considering the biggest restriction to my travels in OZ is the big price tags on flights, travelling around in Malaysia's an advantage.Sarawak and Sabah, here i come. (All that's left to do is surviving Malaysian drivers... and trying not to get roadkilled '__')

So yep, i'm still not saying that i'm really that looking forward to leaving Australia. There are things i love here that i will have to leave, people that i wont see for awhile (if you are reading this, I'm talking about you, Dog :p), and not to mention, some spots that i spend ages lepaking without a care in the world. But then, maybe all those fun had me go a lil pessimistic. Life dont end til you die (...and i'm pretty sure it still doesnt when you die but we'll get to that later) and surely, going back to Malaysia does not mean that my life's ending. My life's not stopping. Hell, it's not even going in pause. Mine will kick ass and it will kick more ass when i want it to :)
So yeah, i'm kinda looking forward to 12th of December. Let's see what's coming up next.

If i'll die this time around

Another step taken,
Lost my count,
Stepping up is overrated,
When all else burning down.

Another step taken,
I will start over
Given the chance
If wounds ever recover

Another step taken
Gone are the days
Left behind
When we parted ways

Another step taken
Ongoing staircase
Slow and steady
Needless for haste

Another step taken
Looking down
A leap; we’ll see
If I’ll die,
This time around.
