HOMETOWN RENDEZVOUS

TGIF....this is what i felt on 15-8-08....why you ask? Cos it was my trip back to my hometown after almost 3 months!! HISTORICAL CITY, MALACCA.

Mom & i left at 5.15am...YES...and it was a breeze driving at that hour...although i did get sleepy halfway & stopped at the Seremban R&R. Got a Mocha Espresso from Dunkin Donuts and soon i was on the go!
We reached by 7am & we always visit the Hindu temple before entering town. The complex has changed so much since i last came. There was some Fri ritual prayers going on & i managed to take some shots and also some filming. Just thought of showing you all some Hindu religion worshipping rituals. (Not so clear...I know...cos used my HP)





Then we headed to my mom's sis place. Aunty was so excited that she woke up at 5.30am!! It's been months since the sisters met. My aunty is a fanatic devotee of the Elephant-Head God, Lord Ganesha, so her whole house is surrounded with either pictures, posters and little statues of Him. Mom presented her also with another statue of Lord Ganesha but it had water features to it...some sort of a fountain-like thingy. I shot a video of her craziness on top of her daughter's piano!! (Do ignore the background noise....sisters gossiping!! And also my bad filming!!)


The reason we came to M'cca was for mom to pay the utilities bills in advanced for the next 1 year and she had some highly TOP SECRET bank matters to settle which i, myself don't know!! So, while waiting for her outside the bank, i was observing the traffic and being a Fri lunch hour, not to mention the last day of school for a 1 week semester break, i wasn't surprised at all with the condition. Nothing different from Subang!!

Went back to MY HOME SWEET FLAT, did some spring cleaning, packed up again, had a FAB WILSON CHIC RICE lunch & started the engine back to this mundane & depressing town. Hmmmm....... :(
