I've been mostly slacking around the past 2 days. Played tennis yesterday and today also. Forehand is getting more consistent, changed my grip for backhand and serve. Drove to and back from where I play tennis. Still need to get used to driving here again. Need to get used to all the other vehicles overtaking, cutting lanes, people jaywalking everywhere, traffic jam. I think I'm too cautious..dare not to go too fast or overtake other cars. Fastest I've gone so far is 70km/hr I think, but I can't go too fast anyway cos there's like traffic jam everywhere. Haha. Helped to cook lunch and dinner also..salmon for dinner yest, sambel goreng tempe for lunch today and squid fried with tofu and mushroom for dinner tonight (yummy!). Have been eating Indonesian food too..nasi uduk (which is quite similar to nasi lemak), pisang goreng (literally translated as fried banana), sambel goreng tempe (don't know how to translate), a few random Indonesian cakes and kerupuk! Played piano for the past 2 days..I really miss the feel of playing piano and also hearing its sound. Heard my mum play the piano too. I think she's really good and I think I've inspired her to start playing piano again. Haha. Attempted to read, but have not read much (fell asleep once..ugh).
Not much going on huh? I guess it's a nice change though. Just spending time at home and doing things which I did not have much of a chance to do in Singapore. I must say it's been a relaxing time here. Going to sleep now.
I love this quote, taken from my cousin's msn nick: "A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words."
