I had no idea that it was a few more minutes to 11:00... Then, I remembered that we were expecting guests from Kerteh... Aunt Janet and her family... So, I quickly got out from the bed and went straight into the bathroom... I was scared they will arrive in no time... But Aunt Adela reassured me that they will not be here until 2:00... I was relieved... At least I did not have to rush to take my bath and all... But I still had things to do before their arrival... I did some housework like arranging the house into perfect order and vacuuming... When I finished I gave Heidi a helping hand in removing the end of the bean sprouts and shredding the flesh of the chicken that Aunt Adela had earlier boiled in hot water... Then we both took turn in taking our morning shower...
All dressed up I walked into the kitchen to help Aunt Adela in arranging the food on the dining table... We were having LAKSA SARAWAK! Preparing the laksa and its ingredients while waiting for Aunt Janet and her family... I was in the kitchen when they arrived... It looked to me like it was a girls-only arrival... Greeted each one of them with a shy smile... Wondering where the men were I asked Aunt Janet... She told me Alistair and his father did not follow... So I was kind of dissapointed because I was expecting to meet Alistair... But I was still glad that they came... The more the merrier... When it was time to eat everybody headed to the dining table... As for me I stayed in the kitchen... Keeping myself busy... Only went out to refill my bowl of laksa until Heidi did the job for me...
Talked to them for a while before going back to the kitchen to wash the dishes... Everybody was busy talking outside... So I practically had the kitchen to myself... Got a little help from Aunt Janet's niece... After that, I went to the bedroom to get some rest... With no one else to talk to I turned to my iPod to keep me company... I was listening to the songs when Heidi came in and told me they were leaving... I got out to say goodbye but they already left... So I cleaned up the dining table before taking a nap...
