Balik kampung for the first time

Friday, April 13, 2007

The long weekends was spent well with his family..

It wasnt like any other weekends together, as we spent it at kampung.

His kampung at Melaka, to be exact.

Yupz2.. i've succesfully stepped into that level of go balik kampung with the bakal mak n bapak mertua. hurhur.

So it started all the way back on thursday night, actually, early friday morning. As early as 3am.

Woke up, get dress and by 4am, my Love went up to pick me straight from my house. I felt kinda sad and guilty to leave my family initially, but once i stepped into the Toyota Ipsum, Love's family rented, i felt i am part of another family, one which is as close to my heart as my own. :)

The whole journey to Malacca was ok. I didnt sleep much. Was excited. After hours of searching for place to stay in, and even though we were still left undecided then , we decided to go to his nenek's house first. And omg, the place was too stuffy. We switched on all the fans in the house but the zinc roof was the main problem. We spent 3 hours there. The nenek was nice, reminded me so much of my own arwah grandmama. She cooked nice food too. Lots of vegetables, and of course, i love it. It was an experience for me, when i used the toilet. And only Love knows it all.. *grinz* And thank god he loves me for me.

After the guys came back from Friday prayers, we checked in straight to Kelabang beach resort, and yes, its opposite this cemetry. But hey, its not unexpected, as there are small cemeteries everywhere! Once in, i blasted the aircon to a low 20 degrees and dozed away till 4. Woke up with a stuffed nose, went to bathe and all made up by 5ish. We headed to another nenek's house.

Another interesting experience. Tons of stories were told. A few times were my eyebrows raised. haha. Went to his aunt's house next before we ended the day with scrumptious seafood.

At night, we all cramped up in my bakal parents' room, to eat satay and roti canai while watching American Idol. Cool!

I slept well that night. But still woke up to a stuffed nose in the morning. Brushed my teeth first, and dashed to Love's parents' room to give my Love a wake up call. Must admit he turns me on big time when he is sleepy. lolz. We headed down for the not-so-nice breakfast before going back to sleep again, and woke up at 10.30 to get ready. While checking out of the resort, we managed to snap a few photos here and there. Off we went to shop at Melaka sentral. Yeah, me and my red baju kurung. Boleh pass datin malaysia lah.. lol..

Later that afternoon, we went JB to rest and eat, and baby bought for my mother and me, kain for baju kurung. Mine is white, ibu's blue. Darling was adorable to notice that I din have any white baju kurung, and hence the white kain. Its beautiful seriously. And i trust his taste on what looks good on me, as i tend to be fickle and ended up picking all or chose the wrong ones. haha.

Went home with satay and pizza for the family. I was super tired, and the flu was killing me. But overall, its a great great experience. Seriously, how often do you get to nap on the same bed with your bakal mak mertua? haha *winks*. Im glad his family loves me for the way i am. Bersyukur to be exact. Hopefully this loving will last for a lifetime, insya allah.

Aniways.. here's the pixies we took.
