I love this town! Hell yeah!
The Blue Wedding
Not as in emotion, but literally the colour. My uncle, recently wed his partner of 7 years. Blue was the theme of the occasion.
Buffalo anyone?
The first post of 09. And it's quarter of the year already.
Things have been soo packed since late last year.
Practically despite the travelling I need to embark in the next 3-4 months, I feel I could rather relax; away from the office; away from annoying phone calls; away from endless meetings. Although the e-mails and paperwork kept haunting me until this very moment of the day.
Well, 08 has been very intriguing.
Like what I have mentioned in my previous post, I hope things will turn out well.
It was here in Perlis where I sat down having a ciggie, when all these sights and sounds of the past came rushing in. With that notion, I went for some info hunt and, well, to the utter honesty, I was devastated with what that I had found.
Well, things never change I guess. When you have put you highs and lows, to work endlessly on changing a rock to a diamond, the aggravating remarks that you see (with some guys that you have put trust on fail to give you a heads up) can really spoil your mood.
Ahh... it was my fault perhaps. I should've been more careful in my choice of words, and in my choice of dissipating information. Now to kill a mockingbird seems like to shoot a snipe. The moon that I tried to nurture fell on earth.
But just like I mentioned, the serene view of the sea; with a touch of wet breeze calms me down. Surely, if I got to know about this in KL I'd be shouting and pulling long faces all day long. Thank God I found out at the comfort of Melaka Straits view.
Sigh. I still have that stupid uneasy feeling that I can't let it go.
Crap.

Last week I was in Kota Kinabalu. After the night training session, while entertaining a client of mine, a teacher (whom was on the way to go home as she lives nearby) asked me where am I going for the first week of training - and without hesitation I answered I'm going to Perlis.
Interestingly, she laughed and said "You need to get yourself some buffalos!"
"Why?" I asked
"Buffalos can bring you luck - thats what they have always say in my village"
"Why do I need the luck? And how the hell buffalos can bring me luck?"
"Well, buffalo helps alot in our daily routine - thus it is considered almost like a sacred animal. You need luck because you're not married!"
"Wtf? You mean you guys believe that un-married people are unlucky?"
"Hahahahaha!" She walked off while saying, "I'll lose my luck if I tell you now. I'll leave you with your current state of luck as it is"
That night I had a wee fight with Alice.
And I spilled Coke on my pants while sipping it.
Twice.
I tried to find the teacher the next day.
But she didn't come in.
Words from the street was her husband (whom a real-estate agent) managed to close a multi-million dollar deal and she went to help him on the paperworks.
Damn.
Perhaps it's time for me to get some buffalos?
Post script: Actually I'm not sure which one should I do. Either: 1- Stay away from Perlis, 2- Get married or 3- Get some buffalos.
Crap. Now I need to go for a joy-ride to Langkawi to calm myself down.
