Last weekend was in Malacca to attend the Southern Regional Convention. Was really a great trip although it's not my first time there. The first thing I did when I touched the historical ground was a bowl of cendol which costs about RM 2. Expensive!!! but super nice........All you need to do is to head down to Jonker Street and you'll find this small little shop called No.1 Cendol stall. It's quite a funky little shop with lots of old antiques and lots and lots of coca-cola bottles. The guy manning the store is very slow but it's worth the wait.
Was really glad to be able to help out in this convention. Actually I was looking forward to a LaSallian programme. Haven't been attending one since FT meeting and I really feel disconnected from the mission work. Anyway was asked to become the summarizer of the camp so I had to force myself to listen every session. Oh well, the facilitators (who are all my wonderful friends) all did well, and for me to see them grow into the persons that they are, really encourage me to see how this small group can make a difference for our Malaysian youth (read LaSallian).
Another thing I must high lite is the satay celup outing which Han Siu brought us. Curious? Well it's like eating lok-lok (those from Ipoh and Penang will know this more) but the difference is you use a peanut sauce based soup to cook ur food. The peanut sauce is the normal sauce you'll get when eating normal satay. The food was great but can't each much because of all those peanut makes it very chai (jelak)
Sorry no pics though. Haha
All in all it was a great weekend away from USM. And it was great because I was back doing LaSallian work which I really miss for the last few months.
