My World of 24/7

We got to work hard and smart. Now I can get food delivered to my doorstep at anytime, 24hrs everyday. I just had fries and burger at 2am in the morning delivered to me doorstep. Thanks to MCD. The world never close as we get closer to each other all around the world.

Peter Pan - Mungkin Nanti

Here goes a song for June School Holidays...sad sad..

June School Holidays

I remember during my younger days at the age between 8 -14 years old, I get excited when the June school holidays are coming. I remember during the holidays, I look forward for my family to bring us to travel. We packed our bags day before leave and I helped everyone in the family to carry their lug gages into our car. Sometimes I was the one who measure and arranged all the luggage to make sure all are secure and safe for long distance travel. Well, we love exploring Malaysia and either we travel east or west each time during the June Holidays. I remember my dad will be driver, mum will be the navigator or co driver. As I grew older I was promoted to be the co driver. The co driver must know how to read map, ask strangers for directions and to be observant always especially when we arrive to unfamiliar area. There were 5 of us, Dad mum, sister, brother and me the eldest in the family. We travel lots each time we have school holidays. We went to places where the tourist never been before in Malaysia. It was fun as I learned a lot about adaptation to different environment and culture of a local area. I learn to be friendly and curious each time i see something interesting. Dad always guided us during our travels in terms of communication, safety, cultural understanding etc. Till today i really treasure his guidance. Sooner or later,I was travelling on my own that was when i did my degree overseas. So all the skills i learnt was put to use during my 4 years of study overseas. And i did remarkably well.

Anyway, the most touching part for me today is to rekindle the happiness we had as a family during the June school holidays. 14 days of traveling with my family every year in June makes lots of difference to my life. The family bonding was developed and at the same time its a learning process for us to be independent.


Now everyone has grown up and grow old. Sister already got a son, Dad died gone to heaven, Mum in Australia taking care of her 1st grandchild, brother happily gotten married and me in Singapore taking care of this house of ours the place where we launch our travel expeditions to Malaysia.

Everyone has gone their separate ways in a way or another. I wish all of us could sit in a car and travel 300km per day and have fun during the June holidays again.
