MERDEKA!!
Happy Independence Day Malaysia!!
Happy 50th Birthday!!
I am not really a patriotic person. Haven't been attending any merdeka celebration since I came to Australia. In fact, I actually never any been to any merdeka celebration 21 years of my life except for those organized in schools. May be I will be more patriotic after spending time in overseas.
Malaysia is still my home. It is where I was born, where I grew up, where my schooling years were... It is where my family and relatives are, where I got to know all my close friends. Despite all the crimes that is happening, all the inefficient services... I still wanna go home.
I guess staying in overseas, not going back for years has made me miss home more that I expected. Not going back for one year makes you crave for all the yummy food. Be it mummy's cooking or hawker stall, what students chat about the most when talking about home is food. Some might crave for all the 'lepaking' activities you can do back home; 'mamaking', window shopping etc. But not going back for two years, things changes. You are not missing the food much. Not being able to eat all those good food is no longer an issue. I really miss home. Miss my parents, my relatives, my nieces and nephews, my house, my bed, my routines at home (although my hometown is a small boring place). Having to face a tough year alone makes me appreciate home more. Not that I get a lot of support but at least at home, there will be problem free moments. And when you fall sick, the place you wanna be is definitely home. And with things happening, you wouldn't want to go home only when it is too late. Not going home for another year. Damn. Dunno how am I gonna stand but I have too.
I just realize that I don't have a picture of my house. Oh my...
So these are some pictures of my nieces and nephews. Look at their happy faces. It just feels so good
