Old Friends

A visit from an old friend to our home during the Raya holidays reminds me that I am getting too old as we counted, these are friends we had during my wife's college years. Its been 10 years and this is the first time a friend came to our home and stayed overnight. She brought along 2 beautiful daughters, Amanda and Allysia and her sister, whom we forgotten her name. OOpppss... hehehe. Anyway, they came is mainly was for the sun and the beach. In one day we went to 2 beaches and had tons of fun. We even caught a crab, and Amanda name it Crabie. Cute lil gal. We went to eat in many famous Penang food but my wife is on Vegetarian for 10 days so poor she. Anyway, By the time they want to leave, we went over to Ghee Hiang but disapointed that the only thing they sell was just sasame oil. What a bummer! Well, they left at 12 afternoon on Saturday and reach KL at 7. Taken them 7 hours to reach KL as the whole highway was jamm. Looking forward to their next visits and p.s. Crabie died! N

Just to share with you all. Cheers!! Touching life story..... A young man was getting ready to graduate college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted. As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible.

Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and wond
