SOOOOO MUCH OF FUN!!!!!!!!!

HEY EVERY1!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'M BACK!!!!!!!!!! I know some of u guys must have been wondering why i've been blogging of the past couple of days....that's coz I headed down for a VACATION to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia with my family..........and boy i tell u....this is SURELY the BEST EVER holiday i've been on.....................

Gosh there's sooooooooo much to tell u all........I had fun shopping, eating, running ard like a kuku bird.....sayin "WOW" this.... "WOW" tat..... HAHA....My family and i met up wif 2 of my dad's closest friends. One is Uncle Siva, who was like our tour guide on the 2nd day of our trip. He made a brilliant suggestion...tat left us all in...ummm....how shall i put.... it like a holy mood ya know... He drove us all the way to BATU CAVES, which is abt 5 miles from KL. Most Hindus know how wonderful and sacred of a place tat is.... It is where now there's the WORLD's TALLEST and BIGGEST statue of a GOD, to be exact it is the hindu god LORD MURUGAN...my goodness...i had like goosebumps when i saw it....it was soooo huge and beautiful.... i'll post some pics up so tat u'll know wat i'm talking abt.....

But the highlight of it ALL was definitely when my family and i went to Uncle Robert and his family......... u see the last time we visited their family was excatly 10 years ago, when they threw me a surprise 11th birthday party..... that was a decade ago...........so obviously my family and i were SUPER DUPER excited to see Robert uncle and his family............ and boy was it a joyous reunion. His kids, 2 boys and 1 girl had ALL grown up...and they all look soo different and awww sooooo cute too!!!!!!!!!! Man i can't put it down as to how happy i was when i got to see em' all after soooo freaking long..... it was just sheer happiness........ felt like i was in Cloud 9.... LOL..... anyway...... Robert uncle and his family were sooo welcoming.... i cld still recall how their old house looked like...but this was way different. Tat's coz they had moved to a bigger house and man it's wayyyyyyyyyyyy must bigger than my house. It's really spacious....... i think i can like practically have a ice skating ring in there man!!!!!!!!! hahah....

Anyway......... it was just soo fun talkin and joking with the kids........Let me give ya a brief scoop abt each of the kids and Uncle Robert and Aunty Nalini.... Starting from the breadwinner of the family....Uncle Robert....now trust me when i say... "HE'S THE MAN!!!!!" coz boy i tell u.....no one....i really mean it, NO ONE can play the percussion like he does.... he's SUPER DUPER awwwsome!!!!!!! infact he's quite famous in Malaysia and even in India!!!!!! I mean seriously....if u see him perform......u'll be sooo inspired to wanna pick up a lil something too.... he's tat good!!! he's like the percussionist version of Jimmy Henricks on guitar.... tat's how he is..... I can just go on and on abt how talent he is..... and tat's not all......he's one the most genuine and nicest man i've EVER met........ he's a true example of the good ol' sayin of "looks can be deceiving" coz he looks like a serious, fierce kindda man.....but he ain't NOTHING like tat at all.... infact he's the total opposite......... my bro and i always affectionately call him the "Gentle Giant"... coz tat's wat he is.... i've never....and my dad always seconds tat too.... tat is he NEVER loses his composure....really and calm and cool kindda of man..... EVERY1 LOVES HIM..... And tat includes my FAMILY too!!!!!!!!!!

Then there's Aunty Nalini, the lady of the house. She's just as amazing and loving as Uncle Robert. It's like a match made in heaven ya know....my dad always mentions tat they are such loving couple....it really shows..... there's just this certain AURA around em'......can't really explain it....it's something u gotta feel it right there and then....it's just wonderful. And oh!!! not to mention Aunty's a real good cook too!!!!!!!! Boy oh boy!!!! it's been really sooo long since i ate such a hearty home-cook meal..... really scrumptious....!!!!

Now let's move on to the KIDS in the family...starting with the eldest, and tat'll be Nilbert Charles Robert who is 16 yrs old.... Don't cha think he's got a real UNIQUE name... infact Robert uncle was telling us tat it's actually the combination of Uncle Robert's and Aunty Nalini's name... COOL eh??????!!!!!!!!! Everyone in the family.... is just as brilliantly talented as Uncle Robert... so tat wld explain why all the kids are musically incline... You see according to his siblings, Nilbert can sing well... and i'm sure he cld play a lil instrument or two..... He's the kindda guy that cld like front a band... you know like a lead vocalist..... And he's into the whole HIP HOP genre... which really suits his persona......Oh!!! one other fact abt him... he's a fan of LIVERPOOL...... and his favourite player is....(*drum roll*)....Michael Owen... though he ain't playing for Liverpool anymore.......And oh!!!!!! he show my family and i his sketch book.....& shessh!!! it was brilliant!!!!!!!! Being a huge fan of the KING OF POP, his sketches inculded tat of Michael Jackson, Hilary Duff, Will Smith and a whole lot more....... i was stunned by his drawings coz it was just like the real deal....ya know wat i mean right.....Anyway....Nibert Charles is the COOL kid of the family...the BIG BROTHER with a pool of talent, of which i'm sure the girls in his school will surely go GA-GA over him.....LOL (*gosh i hope he doesn't read this...hahah*)

Moving on...we have the LOVELY and very gifted Shalini Emelda Robert. Shalini will be turning 15 years old next month & for some1 of her age, she sure is a skilful gal. Just like her siblings, Shalini can play the instuments too.... if i recall correctly, she can play the piano... i think so....but whether or she can play.....it really doesn't matter....coz she's good at her drawing skills too!!!!!! I walked into her room and was greeted by so many beautiful and colourful drawings..... it was just as GORGEOUS as her..... i must admit as to how envious i was of her drawing skills.... boy i wish i had the kind of talent tat she had..... truly AMAZING!!!! I just love her to bits..........she's very polite and fun to be around with.... A little shy initially....but as time goes by... i got alot closer to her...and it was really hard to say goodbye... I felt really bad coz on Monday it was her Trial Examination for History and another subject (*kind of like the Prelims in S'pore context*) & yet the whole family hung out with us till late the night before.......I was really touched by the thought of spending time with my family even though she had her exams the following morning.... I prayed for her tat day coz i know how it feels to sit through a exam.... I wish her ALL the best in everything she does.....Anyhow....Shalini Emelda is the type of girl every1 will love to be and be around with...... i sure do.........

And last but not least....we have the BABY of the family.... Cute Little Simon Collin Robert, who is 12 years old. Simon is such a funny, crazy and gosh!! just a whole lotta character.... I don't know why...but my dad somehow like to always tease him.....and u know wat the funny thing is...... he does the same thing to my dad too..... But the thing i really LOVE about him is tat he can tell a JOKE with such a straight face.....Boy i tell u............he's super duper hilarious with a capital "H".... i can laugh & laugh till tears roll down my cheeks....tat's how funny he is.......... Simon is such an adorable person...so much so tat u just have a really high level of temptation to wanna pinch his cheeks.....hahahha..... I believe Simon plays the drums..... and coming from a line of highly talented family....i'm sure he's just as brilliant as his dad & his siblings....... Guess it just runs in the family eh?!!! Simon Collin is surely the cutie-pie of the family..... the one every1 can count on for a lil joy and fun..... the one who can totally crack you up till ur cheeks hurt from all that laughing........

ALL in ALL every single member in Uncle Robert's family has a unique personality that EVERYONE will 100% love it.............and wld also LOVE to be around with....... I really hope that they will ALL come down to Singapore soon..... I'll try to post some pics of my trip to KL...i have really ALOT to upload...so it'll take some sorting out time.... so till then... I'm signing out of here...............
