The Last One?

Sat 110409

Hi again! I know it's been many days since I last wrote but Life has been peaceful, quiet & of course pleasant...to say it simply, Life @Lot 10 OFH was routine. You wouldn't want to read about my day to day humdrum stuff, right?

And yup, I know...on the political front, lots had been happening. 3 by-elections & their results...coupled with the salvos of uknowat being fired from all sides! Not forgetting also the court cases waiting in line. Frankly, it's been an on-going "show" for all Malaysians & the world to see (maybe kinda enjoy??) since PRU12. But to me, politics is just politics...if you know what I mean...

Well, the only event that I was involved in was a dinner for fellow retirees. Yup, retirees (& friends of retirees) of SMJK Keat Hwa. There was supposed to be a max of 4 tables @RM40 per pax but only 3 tables materialised. Subsequently the contribution per pax was accordingly reduced to RM30, with some contributions by a fellow participant.

Yup, it has been a long while since we had a chance to meet one another and the food was good! There was even a roasted pigling dish as the first course!

The sad part was that it appears that this might be the "Last" of such organised dinners. Reason? Hearsay has it that the main 2 organisers had a "fallout" of sorts...so sad that such an incident could happen between ppl at this point in their lives, as one participant commented. However, time & again, one's temperament & inherent character are factors that have been proven kinda very difficult to change till the end of one's days...

Well, most of us present sincerely hoped that whatever had happened...whatever came between the two of them, would soon fade away in time & we would be one happy crowd of retirees meeting again soon...in the near future! Let's not let the good ole KH tradition & friendship ties die off just like that...

Btw, before & during the dinner @Anggerik Seafood Restaurant (near Billion Supermarket), it started raining cats & dogs! Maybe the heavens were crying for us? A coincidence? Maybe...

Today is another COD. Breakfast, however, is gonna be a simple one...Wheat Bran sandwich bread from Tesco! Bought yesterday. Cheap lo...haha! Lunch & dinner will be our Chef's choices, as usual...hehe....

Yup, another "bonus" week has passed. Our "rollercoaster ride" has been smooth. My "target" for the past month has been achieved. A good feeling. And hopefully, the month of April would end just as well as it had started...
