I've had something to look forward to

I'm going to KL next Wednesday (~6 days from now) and that has kept me a little more chirpy than usual for the last few days. See, I have had something to look forward to.

That has been my complain with a "work life" always - it doesn't give you anything to look forward to (well, maybe interesting projects but nothing else) whereas while in school, you always had something to look forward to. Vacations - Winter, Spring, Summer, holidays in-between, finals etc. etc. There was no shortage of interesting things to do within the confines of college. It, unfortunately, isn't so in the working world :(.

Anyways, I'll be flying out to KL on Tuesday night/Wednesday early morning. Be there for 5 days. Should be an interesting trip. Papa has bought an Audi, so I'll get to check it out. They have also moved into the new crib which was pretty nice when I saw it last time. I will hopefully also go see some places in Malaysia, plus the FOOD - oh the heavenly food. I LUVZ the Asian cuisine, and as you can imagine, Malaysia has no shortage of it.

On the other hand, it can end up being a trip from hell too. After all, I am going to see my folks. Those meets have not always gone well in the past. There will always be things to argue about - mundane things like wear this shirt, not that one - or go work out for the 5 days you are here etc. etc. My money is on the trip landing up somewhere in the middle. There will obviously be some highly frustrating fights, and then there will be some genuinely pleasurable moments. Sadly, only time will tell.
