Dare to dream (part II)

A possible free return ticket to the UK for end of next month (all I have to pay is just the airport tax) and a relatively free work schedule during that period. The only significant downside is I will be going solo and need to leave Big Boss home for about 10 days... So, should I????

Pening seh!

I know the Harimau Malaya - Suzuki Cup hype has now cooled down but I can still remember the overwhelming sense of pride and joy when I saw these 2 goals on TV just last month. Hence, let us always be reminded of the renewed hopes and expectations that we have placed on our national team. In return, let us be reminded of our promises of full support in all their future adventures.

Jangan support time menang aja ok?

Dare to dream

Mood: rindu laut

I dreamt (yes, it's dream with a 't' instead of 'ed' you American dictionary!) of Hillsborough last night. It was weird because one minute I was in KL and the next, I found myself in the middle of Hillsborough town, alone and confused. It was snowing, the town was exactly as how I remember it from before but I was lost. I didn't know why I was there and I have nothing with me (but I was wearing winter clothing though) so I walked my way to Shepperson Road to see whether I still live there. Anyway, I didn't made it to the old house. I bumped into some familiar faces (old friends and neighbours) and they were excited to see me again after almost a decade that they took me back to Hillsbrough town for some warm food and more clothes. Weird eh?

I am not sure what the dream signify (or whether it even means anything) but I know in my heart that one day, I should visit London and Sheffield again, to backtrack the final steps I hastily took that winter 9 years ago and replace them with new, happier memories. Truth to be told, I miss the friendly neighbourhood, the first sights of daffodils in spring, the lake where I used to feed ducks and even the tram rides (but not the smell of trigger-happy Sheffield Wednesday supporters cramped in those trams on match days). I did originally plan of making my way back with my other-half this year especially since one of my closest friends is now back there for her MSc in Cambridge but the plan has now been scrapped off. We have a more important, long overdued trip to make first this year. So, UK just have to wait.

Anyway, talking about dreams.. I am happy that I now have a soulmate to share my interests and travel plans. Eventhough we're both being bogged down with work and responsibilities now, I am very optimistic and looking forward to future adventures together, be it the colourful Venice, the scenic Nepal or the breathtaking underwater of Komodo. Yes, I can't get enough of Komodo.

There have been a number of good news of pregnancies and newborns among good friends these couple of months. Congratulations to Azarul & Marieska and Chott & Nonie for the arrivals of their respective newly born sons and good luck to 3 more girlfriends who are now expecting their first-born. I for one is yet to experience the joy of seeing those 2 blue lines but I am not that bothered yet. Friends and families are of course continuously asking, sometimes to the point of annoyance but honestly, I have alot on my plate now with not much time to even seriously think about it. Just let it be ok?

10.45pm: King Kenny just won his first game with The Reds as the manager with 3 goals vs nil (who cares if it's only Wolves?). Dare to dream LFC as one of the English giants again?
