I think yenjai was caught off guard when I called him to ask for the directions to his clinic. I had even thought of playing a prank on Dr Yenjai by dropping in at his clinic first, then turn up at the cafe to
yenjai picked Jaymes and I up at Taman Paramount LRT station and sent us to the cafe. It is a Hong Kong style cafe located in Petaling Jaya where there were many Chinese eateries. I would never have come here if not for yenjai. I only know KLCC and Bukit Bintang... and Genting Highlands. hehehe....
There were 10 of them - eve and hubby, just me, george, bernard, yenjai, nyonyapenang, hijack queen, titoki and whatalulu. The rest were clueless at first as to who I am, but Bernard recognised me from my photo. hehehe......
Hijack Queen was the first to recover from her shock and greet me. Later she came to sit between titoki and I and we had a great time chatting and gossiping. The queen was very gracious to offer me a lift back after the meet. But Bernard
With Dr Bernard Chan
For a moment, I couldn't pick out Dr Eve from the rest. And she didn't even bother to introduce herself. ish. When I finally got her attention, I wasn't interested in her anymore. I was drooling at her hubby. What a good-looking, muscular hunk!!! hahaha..... Eve, tidak bisa tidur lo!nyonyapenang was not what I have expected. I was expecting an old bibik with her hair in a bun and wearing a nyonya kebaya. hehehe.... sorry lah, cannot post her picture, she is scared shy to show her beautiful face.
Dr George, surgeon n diver.
yenjai was on a high. We didn't order liquor. He just potong jalan (snatched) titoki's drink and she had to wait a long time for another order. hehe..... Jaymes and I just ordered milk tea as we had taken our dinner before coming. Bernard paid the bill but he still owes me a dinner. This one not counted huh. I'll make him pay in July. :) Bernard, I have a way of making people pay orh! hehehe......
Many readers would be surprised at how comfortable I am meeting up with these Malaysian bloggers. I met them for the first time. I just began to read their blogs a few months only, for Hijackqueen's case, less than a month! I didn't read titoki's or whatalulu's blog before this meeting. Amazing, isn't it?! You make friends with beautiful people in blogs! I'm going to meet up with more blogger friends when I travel, as I have made friends from all over the world. Awesome.
So if you think writing and reading blogs is a silly thing to do, I can't change your mind. I enjoy blogging and making more friends.
Hurrah for blogs!!!!
Footnote : Doctors George and Bernard are single and available! :)
Yay! I love blogging too! Good for making friends (and a few enemies too, unfortunately)! :D
ReplyDeletemoby :)
ReplyDeleteWe make more friends than enemies.
There will be the few who dislike us.
*shrugs shoulders*
In real life, there are also people who either like or dislike us, we cannot make everyone happy.
Love thy enemies!
ReplyDeleteOkkk... maybe not...
We'll meet someday, ok? :)
Hey, you're becoming a real true professional blog meeter liao! Haha... I takut already!
ReplyDeleteYes, blogging has brought so many new friends to me. Thankfully, no enemies yet and I hope it stays that way!
ReplyDeleteI never read nyonyapenang's before I met her in person. Haha.
ReplyDeleteWell, blogs and bloggers' meeting bring us all together and let us have more friends. It's fun to know you people. Perhaps it's the common fact we all share (blogging) that gives us the endless conversation topics. ;)
So when you coming to Sunnyvale to meet? ;p

ReplyDeleteYup, it is a bonus to be able to meet new friends through blogging. I just met up with Carcar this evening.
ReplyDeleteFootnote: Are you trying to play the matchmaker here for Doctors George and Bernard? Anyway, I am married to a double bass. ;)
May,
ReplyDeleteOh yes. You should have been there. Next time I should bring a webcam and beam the meet ups live. :)
Maybe Singapore and Malaysia bloggers can get together and organise a bigger Bloggers' Meet.
oceanskies,
ReplyDeleteYou met up with Carcar!? Misti, Carcar, You and I should have a dinner soon. :)
Yeah, I'm matchmaking for the two diamond bachelors. :)
Uahhhh, ECL! I was really surprised to see you there. And I thought Yenjai was privy to the trick actually. Haha. Kesian.
ReplyDeleteIt was great having you there. I should have walked you to your room, ahem! Haha.
Dinner... yes.. come to Penang and we'll have our private party. Haha.
And the last line... woohoo... wanna be our match-maker ka? And oceanskies too, apparently :-)
Uahh.. my comment is full of "haha"s. Too many liao.
Bernard,
ReplyDeleteYes, you were surprised! haha.... yenjai too. A pity I couldn't see his facial expression when I contacted him. Should have tried to find my way to his clinic and played the prank on him. ish.
I'm helping to marry both you and George off. Both of you turning mouldy already. Hope not passed expiry date ar. wahahahaha.....

ReplyDeleteWhen I got enough guts I will come to Singapore and look for you, eastcoastlife! Hopefully you will still have your freedom then. ;-P
Well...the idea is nice, but I fear committing to it. Ok, maybe it is because I am experiencing system overload like Emily. :P
ReplyDeletezewt,
ReplyDeleteYalor. Next time,ok?
rinnah,
ReplyDeleteI don't know about others but I don't care how you look like. From your blog, I know you to be a great person to be friends with.
I'll be happy to meet you when you come to Singapore. :)
oceanskies,
ReplyDeleteConcentrate on your practice. You are doing too many things at one time. hehe....
Take time to smell the roses sometimes.
Cheers to all the friendships forged through blogging!

Thank you for understanding.
