Hi everyone! It's been a few days since my last post. I was outstation with my family ever since the first day of Chinese New Year and it has been a fun and enjoying trip so far. I couldn't get access to places that has internet connection and I had a tough time finding places with decent wifi connection just so I can update what I'm up to lately.
I'm at Cameron Highland enjoying myself spending time with my family here. I was able to find a cafe here that has a fine internet connection(It's a bit of a challenge to find a good internet connection here at Cameron). Here goes a stream of pics to show you guys what I've been through from Reunion Dinner. :)
Reunion Dinner with some of the family members(my eldest sis and bro-in-law went back to Sitiawan few days before that's why you don't get to see them in this pic).
CNY Day 1: Take off to my dad's hometown! It was a smooth ride all the way and we didn't experience any traffic jam along the way. hehe! As soon as we reach our homestay location, we went to unload our belongings and we went to meet my bro-in-law and my eldest sis(and I get to meet my niece for the first time woohoo I'm so excited!!)
Finally get to meet my little koala niece! she was happy jumping around and beaming with joy on her face as soon as she sees all of us. Here are a few of her funny expressions as soon as I took out my phone and take pictures of her ahahahaha!
Ahhhhh the MUST-HAVE-FOOD when we're back to Perak, the legendary Red Wine Mee Sua! once-in-a-blue-moon meal, delicious as always!
Get to take a pic with the extended family as well! :)
I've been looking forward to meet this little one for a while now, ever since he's still inside his mummy's royal crib. I'm so happy to see him in person! Welcome to the big family, Asher boy! <3
CNY Day 2: Went to my relative's place for a visit and this is what we had for lunch! Delicious meal! My bro-in-law and eldest sis didn't get to join us cause my sis is still on confinement period that's why she's inconvenient to move around freely on public. But we get to bring my little koala niece out to meet our relatives' and she's busy playing and running around(worse is, I have to be the part-time babysitter for most part of the whole visit -.-)
CNY Day 3: Take off to Cameron Highland and I get to pass by this view that I like(Sorry for it not being so photogenic cause I didn't really took a good shot of it)
We reached our homestay location on the evening and I fell in love with the weather here! It was so cooling and I get to end up with a view like this. <3
When good food paired up with cool weather = perfection! (Photo took by my youngest sis)
CNY Day 4: Man I totally love the weather here! It's 16-19 degree and I'm longing for this kinda weather for a while now(trust me, staying at Penang where it can go between 35-41 degree if not all, most of the time is quite an annoying weather to end up with). We went to Kea Garden Market for a stroll and we also went to the Butterfly Farm and The Lord's Cafe after that. Wasn't able to take pictures when I'm at The Butterfly Farm and The Lord's Cafe tho.
I'm not really a big fan of flowers but this caught my attention. hehe
But still, when we're in the middle of visiting Kea Garden Market, I was informed that my father's eldest sis, which is my auntie(大姑 in Chinese)just passed away. I was in deep shock of what happened. We get to visit her when we went back to my dad's hometown and she looked totally fine, but out of all of our expectation, my dad suddenly received a call and said that she passed away this morning. After that phone call, my dad's expression totally changed for the whole day. I wonder what he feels deep inside, and nobody would ever understand how he totally felt on that moment. All I can do is to be with him physically.
Bye gugu, I don't know what much I can say after what happened today. I hope God can be the comforter for your family. Definitely didn't see this coming. Still, see you on the other side. May your soul rest peacefully.
I don't intend to make my post looked solemn. I had fun and enjoyed spending time with my family so far. I just didn't expect for such thing to happen during a celebration time like this. I guess, all of us in the family did not see this coming as well.
I hope all of you Steemians enjoy your time with your families and love ones. Appreciate the ones you have. You'll never know(Really, you'll never know)what will happen the next moment. Cherish it, appreciate it, savor that moment you have with your family. Love them as much as you can, and enjoy being with them.
I'll see you guys on my next post!(Hopefully it'll be real soon in these few days as I'm still outstation right now)
See you guys soon!
The one and only,
Scott Jerome Yao.
