Elina

Elina, Desert and Fish.

Finally met up with Elina last night. I finished watching Hitch just in time to meet her in the city. She suggested this little desert place in the Valley and, I have to say,it was a great idea. The macadamia cheesecake I had was so pretty Elina had to take a picture of it haha. I was pleased to find asam laksa and bubur pulut hitam on the menu. We spend the time typically catching up and I talked about the adjustment issues. The conversation was easy flowing, and I realized I had completely forgotten what she was like back in primary school in SP. It's been a shocking ten years ago. Wow...

After desert we went walking through the streets. As we passed by the numerous bars overflowing with merry-makers, this single phrase ran through my mind - impending doom. I expected to be pelted by beer bottles or rained with insults. There were a few odd stares but, fortunately, no insults. Alhamdulillah. There wasn't much to see in the Valley so we sat down in Gloria Jean's. The cheesecake was an overload and I needed coffee. Bad.

Met up with Elina's boyfriend, and by God, I can't remember his name!(sorry Elina!) Nice guy, we chatted for some time while he finished his kebab. We were walking to his car when it finally happened. A van passed by, a girl stuck out her head and yelled something. None of us could make out what she'd said but Elina's bf selamber-ly gave her the finger. Was I glad there were three of us and one is a guy.

Stopped by a friend's house to pick up some fish. They gave me some and I still haven't figured out what to do with it yet. My housemate Sabiha is just as clueless.

It was really nice to meet someone familiar from back home. I guess homesickness still rules. However, assignments are piling up so I have a lot to occupy my mind for now.
