Merdeka!

It's Hari Merdeka! We are 52!!!

still pretty young for a country, i would say.. i'm not a very patriotic person but i would never forget this date.. well, not that i celebrate it.. it's just another day for me.. but i would never forget my roots no matter where i am..

it's Monday, not a very good day for work.. haha! but i survived well enough to still write a post! the odds are really against me, with the server going down twice in a day.. talk about Monday Blues! i started with none and ended up blue in the face!

i wanted to get Kebabs for dinner on the way home, knowing that yummy food will help in getting rid of the blues.. i walked home and realised that it's not opened just as i turned the corner onto my street!!! this Kebab House seems like a shop that has been there for a long time.. but at the same time seemed deserted.. and since i've moved into this apartment almost 3 months ago, the only time i actually saw that it was operating was last Friday!!!

last Thursday i saw a couple of guys with take-away styrofoam boxes coming from the direction of Australia's Pizza House just as i was about to enter the apartment from the direction of Light Square.. i know it couldnt be McDonald's or Subway because of the packaging.. it definitely cannot be pizza because you dont pack pizzas in styrofoam boxes.. the only conclusion was that they bought say, garlic bread or wedges from Australia's Pizza House..

i didnt think too much of it on Thursday night until i saw Kebab House opened on Friday night!!! it was a blessing! i can smell those delicious flavours just walking past it!!! i have decided that i need to eat those Kebabs this week, the sooner the better! i've even gone to tell J, K & M when we were at Citi Zen yesterday that we could bring L to have dinner there someday because it's halal!!!

yup, i had my first Dim Sum session in ages yesterday!!! no kidding! i was so excited that i took a cab to the restaurant when i could have just walked!!! okie, i left out the tiny detail that i over snoozed my alarm~ haha! the 8 of us ate heaps and my favourites were the 'You Tiao' Cheong Fun, Bean curd in Ginger Sugar syrup and Mango Pudding! i was actually impressed with the Mango Pudding.. i will definitely go back and take some photos and 'collect' more information! hehez!

now, when can i get those Kebabs?
