Its good to be home.

Well... better anyway - until it gets boring. In the 6 months that i've been gone, Kaknab's cooking has fallen even further from grace, the kitchen has been ( horrendously) redone, and my dad's bought even more crap he has no use for. At least my mother didn't fry ( or even learn to connect) my Streamyx router - i'd DiE going from 1mB/sec college ethernet back to dialup. Haven't started on my culinary hedonism yet except for a nice japanese dinner at M.O. the other day - my stomach should return to full capacity soon enough. Oh well - that and the fact that both my parents have become ardent followers of Akademi Fantasia.

Akedemi Fantasia is pretty much a carbon copy of the Fame academy, except not so much bitching and backstabbing - and a coupla of them are actually pretty damn good. Too bad the same can't be said for like, 99% of the people who tried out for Malaysian Idol. Seriously....some of them haven't a fuckin' clue - one lame-o started with a short Nobita/Doraemon skit with handmade masks and then launched into a random old geisha-style japanese song. Another notable one was a girl who wasn't that bad, but she chose a sheila majid song. Big mistake - one of the judges was her estranged ex-husband who has been fighting a bitter alimony battle for years. Boo-yah! The hour-long montage of failed M'sian Idol auditions was abso-fuckin-lutely hilarious - and that's just the penang-ites!

Been sneezing left, right & center - must be the damn haze or something else in the air. Damn Indons and their open burning. Sleep cycle's still pretty screwed up. Its gonna take a while to get back to even sleep timings - slept for 5 hours the first night, 15 hours the second, and i'm still waiting to sleep today. Once i'm set i gotta hunt down you guys back home!

7.00 am now - and its still nice and dark-ish outside. Back to trying to get to sleep.
