Down Memory Lane

Im writing this whlist stuck in my grandpa's house unable to manoeveur due to my fractured leg...Well, it all happen last thursday on a fine sunny afternoon. I was going to visit my uncle's house and have dinner. It was a lovely afternoon and we decided to play basketball in a nearby park. This proved to be catastrophic as i sprained my while attempting the 360 degrees spin, under the leg, around the waist, finger roll lay up. I landed awkwardlly and my ankle gave way. I had to endure a brief period of pure torture. However, the dinner after that was great, i had my favourite la-la and curry crab...somehow the pain took second place in my mind. Next day, i had to walk with cructhes. Confined in the house, i had no choice but to indulge in life's greatest gift...sleeping...Thankfully, the next day held greater promise, my cousins decided to go to mid-valley and agreed to bring me along. Upon reaching our destination, i had to struggle to transport myself to the ground floor shopping mall, seeing my helpless state, my cousins decided to get a wheel chair for me..so there i was roaming around malaysia's largest shopping mall on a wheelchair, whats more is my inability to operate the wheelchair efficiently made me into a liability. Furhtermore, all my cousins were female and i had to browse through countless female apparel and shoes shops.Needless to say, i had a good lesson on the fashion of the opposite sex. Later, we had sushi king for lunch and i had to be push by one of the staff to the rotating table. Food was awesome but what was about to come was disasterous. After lunch, a slight rumble, around 0.32 on the ritcher scale, started manifesting itself in my tummy. Subseqyently, i had to go to the toilet and to my dismay, the freakin mid valley toilet does not have a disabled toilet. Thankfully, my cousins suggested trying the toilets in jusco and by God's grace the toilets there catered for the physically challenge. After a wholehearted dump, i had new vigour and determination. We continue shopping for eyerings, corset, make up and high heels. What fun!!...
THe day ended with a loud BURP as we went to the local bak kut teh stall for dinner. A friendly peddler paid us a visit while we were feasting and attempted to sell us durians...this was my first experience withnessing a peddler selling durian using this guerilla tactic...he must be desperate for a quick buck. Anyway, after a whole day's rest on saturday, i went to watch narnia on sunday in sunway pyramid. That place is a nightmare as we took about 30 minutes just to find a car park. Apparently they we building a new wing which they creatively name "sunway pyramid 2". The movie was not too bad, really good computer generated creatures and i was proud to be able to point at the magnificent scenaries and tell my friends that there is where i live (although it is completely and utter bollocks as we all know auckland not much different than the hustle and bustle of kl). A question however lingers in my mind, is the lion the professor coz it certainly seems like it when the lion goes on a "vacation" and so on?...if so, why does he change into a lion and not a human like the other kids. Can somebody that read the book care to explain.
I rapidly recovering now and hoping that i will regain full fitness before the expedition that would take place on 4th of january. Yes, jason and i have booked a flight to Kota kinabalu and if sean plays his cards right, we might just be able to climb the treacherous Kota Kinabalu, this is no mean feat as this mountain has taken the lives of many humans. Its infamous "boon's peak" has ended the lives of many aspiring trekkers. However, in sean we trust and hopefully he (and the guide) would lead us to the summit of this mountain...i'll keep you informed...bye for now
