Short Malacca trip with relatives!

Helloo everyone!!! I guess I haven't properly wished you guys a happy new year yet on on my blog right (I did it over on twitter + facebook + instagram)..... so once again, happy new year to all of you!!!! :D

I guess I'll be staying home these few days so you can expect quite abit of updates, and also school is officially starting this coming Monday as well! It will be my 2nd last semester already! How time files!

And for this year I'll try to be focus on the things that matters and are important to me, I'll leave that to another entry which I probably named it 'New Year Resolution' lololol! Though I always don't really keep them like in the past, I'll try to do so this year. Since I think the resolutions for this year are all pretty manageable kind! Anyway, just some pictures of the short Malacca trip that I went with my relatives!


It's a pretty much last minute trip, and I went with my parents together with my maternal side relatives! Grandma and grandpa went as well, plus all my cousins so it's quite fun! But Ran did not go due to army though, I think he took too much leave for our Taiwan trip already lol! But hey, Taiwan was really fun! It's all worth it! And I didn't take much pictures this trip at all, was enjoying and relaxing myself!


Alright, pictures time!!!!!!



lunch at malacca restaurant wth relatives

Once we reached Malacca, we went to have our lunch straight! Was famished!

Sometimes it feels good to go out with older adults, cause like you don't have to do or be responsible for anything when it comes to decision making and stuff like that. Cause we are always a children in their eyes lolol, which I love it! Hahahaha! Though I'm going to turn 24 this month! O.M.G -_-
