A long long day..

Dinner was awesome yesterday..

Petai Sambal with Prawn, my favourite dish

I woke up at 6.15 am today because we needed to send my cousin, WK to his SAT at KDU, Penang. We actually reached quite early, about 7.15 and the exam only starts at 8am.

After dropping him off and settling him down, we went to Bali Hai to eat 'dim sum' for breakfast. The 'dim sum' there was good. Shortly after that, we came back to fetch my other cousin WL to KDU also for his Anime gathering.

I can tell that WL is really into it. He stayed up till 2.00am something to complete his sword. Salute him for that, for his determination. He said he was going to play something like Amazing Race at the anime gathering.

Well, I personally am not into anime. No offense, but I think some of the anime are quite evil, but it also depends on how you look at it. Later while waiting for my cousin to finish his SAT exam, my mom and I sat at the lobby to observe those people who dress up like anime characters.

As I observed, what crossed my mind was this. These people are trying so hard to dress up to be someone their not. Anime is a world of fantasy, and these people trying so hard to be someone their not because they are so influenced by them. I was thinking, would these people try too hard and end up being confused between reality and fantasy? Of course, not all are like that. Some just like it because of it's graphics or just for the fun. So I think that it's really important that we are able to find a balance between it.

Well, anime aside, after dropping WL of, we went to Gurney Plaza. There we went to Jurin for lunch. It's a Japanese Restaurant. I ate Unagi Stone bowl, my mom and aunt both ate tepanyyaki seafood combo and venison respectively, while WK ate cold soba.

After lunch we went to Cold Storage. Later when we were on our way home, WL called and said that he'll be done in 45mins, so we detoured and went to Coffee Bean. After 50 mins, when we wanted to fetch him, he called to say that he wanted to join another anime competition. So we decided to come home first. We reached home at about 5.45pm. That's almost 12 hours out.

It's quite a long day but not that long also because I've been out for longer hours... Well, this sentence makes no sense does it? It's was a long day but not that long???

*clap* *clap* Had Sambal petai with prawn and sotong again for dinner today..
