Heat...

It’s freaking hot today. I don’t know about everyone else, or perhaps I’m under a spell of heat. The days before had been a routine of overwhelmingly hot afternoons and menacingly heavy rains in the evening (alright, not constantly menacing and there were quite a few gentle curtains that Amanda might deem “the perfect rain”), but today was exasperatingly stuffy all day long. The refreshing chill of the late winds were absent, and boy was it dry. I remembered vaulting up my mango to pick of a couple ripe mangos in the evening, and the winds were a gush of dry, warm breeze that does little to entice. Gosh, how long has it been since I actually climbed a tree? I never really did climb much when I was younger, though I did get a kick off swinging on the small jungle gym that used to occupy the recreational park opposite my uncle’s house in PJ (which was my former residence till I moved here, to Kajang, when I was 8). 11 years later with a lot of fat sagging off my bloated body, climbing has become slightly constrained. Time to get in shape.

It’s been a good 2 weeks, I presume, since I posted something here. Not that I intend to neglect it… but then I did, in light of my cousin’s stay with me here for the past 10 days. I could’ve make time doing this, but somehow I thought I’d spend it better by keeping my cousin from eroding under total boredom. These 10 days had been alright, 10 days with good company and some fun, though these 10 days could’ve been very much better with proper planning. 10 days, and all we did was; watch 3 movies (Hills have Eyes, MI:3, Poseidon), visit the arcades on every mall we got into (except Metro Kajang, because we thought the time was better spent on the ps2 at home), played badminton on 2 accounts, worked for a day at my aunt’s, went on a 3 hour karaoke session, played a good amount of card games and… wait, that’s all.

I couldn’t even take him ice-skating as I had promised before he came (we had badminton instead for the evening), and I had actually intended to take him to Genting Highlands (which didn’t work out because we couldn’t get anyone else to go, and the idea of 2 guys going to a theme park either sounds boring or gay). So yeah, forgive me my cousin, because I had officially ruined your 10 day holiday. Better luck next trip.

Cos i owe you one.
