GOODBYE WEEKEND

Although technically it's only been one month since summer has officially ended, it feels as if a lifetime has passed since we were sipping cold beers on hot, sweltering days without realising whether it was a weekday or weekend. In fact, summer of 2015 to me could be summed up in the word 'weekend' with endless nights and shortened days, well on the days I wasn't working at least. So with that in mind, and as with the backlog of procrastinated blog posts, I'm throwing it way back to August, where my sisters and I went to our second motherland of Malaysia. Being half Malaysian, summers were always a time for me and my sisters to visit our family over there and whilst none of us have actually 'lived' in Malaysia, its remains to be a home away from home for all of us. As our tendency is to stay with my grandparents in Malaysia, my family decided to do something different, and for a brief weekend, we checked into a hotel and embraced the 'hotel experience'. Here below are some photos I took of my sisters during our stay. Staying there put us all in a different state of mind and was such a departure from our everyday lives. So here's an ode to lounging pool side, losing track of time and of course, jumping on ready made beds.

KL HAZE






























My days in Kuala Lumpur are officially over. *cue violins and crying into empty wine glasses*. And despite the title, there was actually very little haze in Kuala Lumpur and much more sunshine. I had such a wonderful fifteen days back in my 'second home', and just thinking about all the curries consumed make me crave for more days back in this summer haze.

PENANG PHOTO DIARY






















All photos by me and my sister

During my 'just over two weeks' stay in Malaysia, my family and I took a little venture to our favourite holiday 'we need the sun and lets stuff our faces' spot, Penang. Despite a very brief trip, I thoroughly enjoyed laying under the hot sun, and consuming many bowls of prawn mee. Days were mainly consisted with basking in summer's glow and deciding what to eat next. I have been greeted with humidity defying showers in Hong Kong so needless to say, Penang, you will be dearly missed. Until next summer.
