a little bit of sunshine

When people think of Port Dickson, they associate it with beach. A really really dirty beach. Guess what? I went there and what I saw was a really dirty and colourful beach littered with plastic bag in any colour possible. So much for wanting to play in the sea and building sand castles. But no fear! Our hotel makes up for the horrendous looking beach. (Doesn't look horrendous but pictures always make ugly things look pretty. When you walk up close to the beach you see black fragments floating around. Such a turn off =< ) Grand Lexis Hotel (formerly known as The Legend International Water Homes). It's awesome because... Not because it's on the sea...  Not because it has colourful slides in kiddy pools... (Which I played in yay!) But because every room has it's own private pool =D It is tiny but still, it's pretty cool ;) Figuratively and also literally. Because this private pool is not really exposed to the sun, it was freezing when we went in for a dip ...

a beautiful and cool month, full of rain and clouds in the overcast skies. My appetite come and go, but when it does come, it's unsatisfiable. Like that day, I was craving for something savoury. I had lots for lunch but yet, my stomach feels oddly empty =( So I did the thing that I can only do at home: dig through the food cabinet and fridge. And I end up making egg salad, and threw every possible thing I can get my hands on it.  4 eggs (Soft boiled!). Olives. Mayo. Italian herbs. And other stuff that I forgot. Served on oven-toasted bread =D  Bought cake from De Pastry Chef last week. I tried German Cheesecake. Nothing much to say. It's so-so.
