Pagan Lalang

What's ur first impression of that name? No.... ain't weeds watsoever. It's a beach, off the coast of Selangor, a distance from Morib - a beach with fine sand, splashing waves, ten upon thousands of crabs leaving their footprints behind. And we journeyed there, 2 hours + in the car, passing kampungs, durian plantations, pig farms, dragon fruit farms.

We went to see the sunset. And to bbq. Alex and Evelyn brought their curry-powder-marinated chicken, lamb, sausages, marshmellows, honey, butter, drinks and to top it off a bottle of red wine. Boon Hock brought bricks, wire mesh, fire starters and basically all d equipment needed to bbq. Neo brought his football, while Paul supplied transport. I brought myself and my appetite. That's a huge contribution to the party of 5. I made d 6th!

So bbq we did and stuffed our faces full. After that, we had a game of football, yes, girls included AND we played is wat is possibly the best game ever, that Neo himself admits that it is THE one game he cannot play. We played ice and fire. Yes, that's right, the game we used to play as kids, where 'IT' chased after ppl and touch them, hence they are 'iced'. a free player will then have to come and 'fire' them; that is to melt them. IT wins once everyone is 'iced'.

A lot of scuffling in the sand, tonnes of laughter and yelling.
Tired and sweaty, we toasted with the wine to er... good health? and walked down the beach before changing the toilet of a nearby restaurant.

What can i say?? It was great and mental!

i still have those darned sand mosquitoe bites around both my ankles to remind me of it. What a waste of insect repellant which obviously didn't work. Still, the trip was worth them all. Long live ice and fire!
