back...

i thought i could escape that feeling, the feeling that was slowly corroding away at my soul. ever since i came home i know i've not only been grumpy but i've been very solitary, by choice ofcourse. i cana't explain why, or what's going on in this fickle mind of mine.

but Penang was good...

i thought i could just go up for the weekend and see my cousin off, then spend sometime alone and then i'd be rejuvenated, but plans got changed..


the last thing i'll remember her saying before boarding her flight will be, 'Wait, let me finish my muffin first....'

ofcourse then i thought i could run away with the Penang food scene and get drunk with the beautiful life of hawker food, which i did. and the weighing scale is staring back at me now. my aunty as always insisted i stay with her and never leave her sight, but i had to escape, i was really being troubled at night with memories and tears. i thought i'd just run away...


the beach was beautiful at 5.30am, i just had no words when i reached there.


ofcourse when i turned around i had no idea where i was, Batu Ferringi yes, but which part of it, i was completely thrown away. until i saw the curve, i once spun my car around that bend


the sun was then slowly rising and watching this fisherman going out trying to recorver his overnight net, was the sign...


time for a dip. since i left the house not planning to hit the beach, so i had no swim wear. then at one point the words, 'Whats the most interesting thing you did last...' came to mind. so skinny dipping it was. the water was incredible, warm and yet cold. i swam up all the way and then at one point, yes, i thought i should just swim away and never return to shore. i was just swimming away till it was almost 8.30am and the sun was high up already, the beach was bright as it could get. i dunno why i decided to turn back but i guess sometimes i always see things half way thru.

now i'm back, but not cured...

(not to mention seeing the look on the motorist driving by and looking at this naked man coming out of the water, priceless...)

Ash, i don't recall asking you to go stare at the picture.

Jonny, you should have seen the look on the newspaper guy at 6 in the morning, he thought he saw a ghost.

Jason, i tried but i couldn't stop.

Rajes, take it as a compliment she's ogling the pic. Plus she probably just got back from mamak, so she can't counter by saying she's ridding herself of late night cravings ;-p

Pity the newspaper guy's kopi shop...no business; he won't need coffee to stay awake that morning.

you know there is actually a funny side to that picture;

i set the camera, walked into the water (trying to get a nice sepia picture of me walking into the sunset), then this lorry honks by, i turn around, camera goes off, enough said...

that was suppose to be 'sunrise' not 'sunset'
