8 years ago...

seremban...it's been 8 years since i last set foot there..(it's in negeri sembilan incase you don't know =p ) a place i never liked going since young (as far as i can remember ).. a place which i never want to go again since what happened 8 years ago.. the place which i dreaded to go when my dad suddenly said, "come let's go visit grandma in seremban..." so fine..i went just for the sake of going..for the sake of showing my face..for the sake of pleasing her though i know she doesn't really like me..not that i mind anyway..

and when we arrived at my grandma's house..i was surprised to see her hair all white..i think i last saw her 3 or 4 years back when she came to visit us..she really looks like a granny now..somehow, i had a little fear upon arriving..i don't know why..fear she'll scold me for nothing? fear she'll accuse me like she did before..?i really don't know how to react if she does..


and i step into the house..eventually, nothing bad happened..not as bad as the last time i saw her..nothing much has changed as inside the house looked almost the same as before..everything semed so antique and nostalgic (both good and bad)..


and i saw these photographs hung on the wall and then recalled the existence of that family picture on the right..



know which is me? hehe..i used to look cute though *erhem*..hehe.. and i somehow kinda miss my grandpa when i saw the picture..it's been 8 years since he left and i can't remember when was the last time i saw him.. i remember him as a loving grandpa who buys us our favourite tid bits each time we visited him..

many years later...


taken in a studio don't know how many years later...



what do you see? not the horse but bae yong jun..lol..both my grandmothers love bae yong jun..i wonder why..maybe he has the aura which attracts more elderly women..

a cabinet full of antiques...she really doesn't throw things..
the same old kitchen with the same furnitures...


the living room..and yeah, that's her..all white..

a room which used to have a bed in it..now became a store room..
this used to be my grandpa's room..now a store room too..i really wondered if she ever throws anything...
closer view of her white hair...haha..
on the way to rasa jayah food court? if i'm not mistaken...

they had bak kut teh..i didn't..the weather was too terribly warm to eat this..

so i had this..
met up with my 2 and only direct cousins...my cousin brother looks so different now..i can hardly recognise him..the words he speaks are equally different compared to few years ago..and surely we met up with my aunt and uncle too.. the most awkward thing meeting up with my grandma and aunt is, they will stare at my siblings and me for a long time..eye balls roll left and right..quietly analyse what they think about how we look..gosh...i don't like that..

this trip or reunion? wasn't as bad as what i thought it would be.. was she sincerely treating me quite nice? well, i don't know..but it's ok..i'll just accept it..andshe asked when will i be going there again..i don't know..it's something unforeseen...

we did snap another family photograph...but, i'm not gonna post it here..hehe..

p/s. it's okay if u're not interested in this post..i blogged about it simply because it's nostalgic after haven't been there for 8 years..back to college tomorrow..sigh..lazy lazy lazy..hehe..

till then!
