Absolutely glorious

3 more days til I haul my ass to accomodate one very lucky seat on an Emirates flight to Kuala Lumpur a.k.a. HOME! I wouldn't say I am excited, more anxious really. Going back to where it all started. I have been so acquainted with the authentic British culture, that going back will feel strange, at least for the first few days. All I know is my tastebuds will be brought back to life. I know 2 years isn't a very long time, but it just feels long..it's as though I have forgotten how is it like to be indulged into the best of Malaysian culture. But that does not mean I have forgotten my roots. nothing beats home!

the weather, oh the weather decided to be the most glorious of all the days in these 2 years i have been here. it was baking at 24 degrees and that is the ideal temprature I should be in. sadly, i have to go home to the extremely scorching hot weather + haze! god i hate haze!! Nice to have such a beautiful weather - I spent the weekend with my mother-in-law and we took Holly to the Cronkeyshaw Reservoir. We had a long walk, horses running freely across the meadows (although she tried to chase and bite all of them. *border collies*), and we had our lovely heart-to-heart chats. I can't believe how self-absorbed we've all been that reliving our good old times was bliss. Thousands of buttercups, daisies and dandelions swarming the grassy commons, making it picture perfect. Bursting them dandelion clocks has been my pasttime, watching the flowers bloom in awe as the onset of the British Summer takes place. I can't believe I will be missing the British Summer everyone seems to be so proud about and I know now why. Thankfully it came in good time - when recession bites and people can't afford to escape our typically miserable weather for the sunny shores of the Adriatic sea and the glorious Mediterranean.

I so feel like a pint of ice-cold cider and basking under the glorious summer sun in just my bikini top. But I have loads to do after blogging. I thought i'd just blog as I won't be doing that at all when i'm in malaysia. i'd be so busy like a bee.

The last week has really gotten into me. I just can't believe how stupid some people are. For example, I had booked a massage with an Aveda salon like WAAAY in advance. Only to call them to confirm my appointment, and them saying that they dont have me in the books. I'm like, wtf? What were you doing all the bloody time I was on the phone trying to book a massage? stupid or what? or just can't be tossed?! tosshead! and then there is work, the neverending saga of jealousy, hatred, and above all idiocy. i don't know why am i doing such a dignified job but only to have co-workers that are soooo outrightly stupid! i wonder how they even got the job that only people with specialised skills could do. i can't wait to leave my bloody job and get a proper one (again going back to Macclesfield - yiiipppee!!!) but then again, the summer and the good weather is the reason people have negative productivity in their systems, and they have not got back to me on my application. now that i'm not abiding work permit regulations anymore i can take and leave a job whenever i bloody please.

tarah!
