If i could paint a picture of my paradise .. it would consist of,
vast blue skies filled with cirrus clouds..
pristine powdery sands..
not-so-scorching sun..
big waves..
surfer dudes..
sea gulls..
horses galloping at a distance..
long long long stretches of palm trees disappearing into the horizon..
beach benches..
huge colorful beach brollies..
with a neat lil juice and pizza hut.. that also sells ice-kachang. haha :p
hehe ... this actually sounds like costa rica, los angeles and perth combined. guess im not a very imaginative person :p
tonight, i thought about my perth days. i miss my jogs every evenings at murdoch oval, i miss playing frisbee and touch rugby, i miss surfing, i miss student village days, i miss walking thru the long psych corridors and thinking that my lecturers do not hav a life other than academia when i see them still in at 7pm, i miss stay-in dvd nights (with and without themes), i miss potluck dinners, i miss cooking to de-stress, inventing crazy dishes- most a success, while inevitably some failed..like the oolong rice that was bland n soggy, i miss cooking for my friends and hearing them say yumyums, i miss those surprise birthday visits we do for each other, i miss long road trips, i miss friends from sg springing surprise visits to perth, i miss receiving letters and cards in my mailboxes, i miss webcamming, i miss long distance calls and calling till the card runs out of credit becos we fell aslp on the phone, i miss the blue duck cafe, ciao italia, concass, cottlesloe beach, freo, sundays everyday, bubble-teaing, going gaga over k-drama's, jap dramas, animes, youtubing with my pals, MC Liu, Tei singing kohei, mugging sessions with my pals, joodalup's award-winning pattiserie, late night shopping at garbo, random bus rides to the city, oriental shops, northbridge, dimsum sunday mornings, subi market, little creatures, bateman's FHB and meegoreng, buying a whole salmon at crazy cheap price from the wholesale fishmarket at crazily wee hours in the (very very cold)morning, getting a bix box of apples at $2 and having no idea wat to do with it after, i miss snugging beneath my blanket on cold winter nights and not wanting to get out of bed the next morning, i miss the blue blue skies there, i miss watching everybody loves raymond and the simpsons every evening, i miss perth royal shows, i miss grocery shopping especially when timtams are on offer at $1.29 and when all sorts of chocolates bar goes for 99cents each, and cursing how banana prcies at exorbitant at $1(++) each (not bunch, each), the list can really go on and on and on, there are so much lil things here and there that i miss. memories. good ones. :)
all these cos my friends are going back to perth tmr for a holiday (and the fact that i bumped into another fren from perth last week!)~ actually planned to go too, but gave the idea up cos i had other plans. wonders when i'll be back to re-visit the place where i've resided for 4years. i dun think much wld have changed, considering their efficiency level (if any) and the pace of life there..haha.
alritey, goodnight
