Should I chicken out?

I found this picture on the net when researching "flexible sigmoidoscopy". It is basically a camera on a flexible 'thingy' that goes up your anus. Yes it's gross and yes I did thought of cancelling it.. but you know what, I have been on the wait list [this is considered an 'elective surgery'] for more than two years.. might as well do it. Even though I don't think it will do much help with my ongoing issues but at least or I hope - they can confirm that it is not something more mischievous than what it is.

The downside is that I might get the same anaesthetist who normally come down to our clinic for our Brachy treatment. It's not easy to show of your private thing to people you knew. Wish me luck!

My short trip home with kids - Pt. 1

It was a long trip, Lonnie-Melbourne, Melbourne-KL and the last leg KL-Penang. (but not as long as the trip coming back here)

Selfies at airports:


By the time we got home (mum and dad's) it was well over 2 am!

Next day visited my uncle next door. Ramai betul kambing dia

This one is one of twins but he is the black one and his mum only fed the other one which was not black. So my uncle had to hand-fed this one. Rohan is having a great time.

The view behind the goat's pen. This used to be rubber plantation [a tiny plantation] and the hill is Mertajam hill which gives the name to the surrounding area [Bukit Mertajam]. Soon the new rubber trees will block this $RM1 million view. 


Happy goats
It was a bit of raining season in Malaysia so my mum's place were flourish with mosquitoes, zZZZZZZZ - I was not prepared for them so the next few days my kid's leg look like as if they had chicken pox [especially Orion's]


My sister's husband has a small business of selling fresh seafood at various night markets around where they live. So it is good opportunity for my kids to experience 'selling fish' {I thought}

The two boys in red are his sons - from different wives. He sells petai also [that green beans aka stinky beans] 

Can you see Rohan at the background. I think he was the one who enjoys this activity the most and Orion the least

Aladdin tucking into his "laksa"

Fresh fish makes yummy laksa

Martabak - poor thing is missing his dad and cried at random throughout the holiday. Won't do that to him any more. You can stay home smelling your dad's armpits son.

"Bihun sup"






The geese were still around {the cause of Hisham's sleepless nights way back when]
