My Bags Are Packed!!!

All my bags are packed and I'm ready to go....... this song has been playing in my head for the past few days. I am busy packing and unpacking my suitcases. Putting in things and taking it out again. I have so much space left in my suitcase but guess what....they were overweight!! That damn stupid airline only allows 2 suitcases with 50 pounds each. Each empty suitcase itself already weigh over 15 pounds! I have to leave some stuff behind and let my two sisters who will be visiting in May to take it back with them. Anyway, I am looking forward to go home to see my family and friends and on the other hand I am not looking forward to being apart from Carlos for so long. You know we never been apart for more than 3 days since we got married. It will be pretty difficult for him too since he will be all by himself here but thanks to Skype we get to call each other everyday or every other day.

Hopefully, the internet service back home will be good so I can update my blog regularly and go blog hopping too.

See what came into the mail for me a few days ago. Lesley sent me some cookies and 'Chang' I've been craving for chang since I saw her posting at her blog. Thank you Lesley for being so thoughtful and I can't wait to learn how to wrap 'Chang' from your mother. And thanks for the cookies too.

Gert, are you taking MAS? do they only allow 50lb for each bag? Maybe you should try getting a new luggage that weighs less. Im seriously thinking of getting new ones for my next trip too. You knowlah, going home gotta bring stuff for ppl and coming back kena pulak load stuff for ourselves.

Dr No, balik Malaysia lah ni :) Carlos kena kerja so he is not going home with me this time.

JOAT, not only Tai Lok meen but durian, chee cheong fun, yong tau foo ..etc. Carlos need to bring a crane to pick me when from the airport when I come back :)

Pinky, thank you.

Farina, I am taking Northwest. I think MAS still allows 70 pound per bag so it's not that bad. Yea, going back kena bawak buah tangan and balik sini kena stock up our Malaysia stuff :) :)

Lesley, don't worry about it and thank you. Looking foward to meet up with your sister and mother.

Cat, how come the airline didn't call me? Anyway, I already confirmed everything. You too have a safe trip home and see you in KL.

Zue, I have been running around like a headless chicken for the past few days. Trying to get everything done before I leave.

Maureen, thanks for stopping by over this blog. I will post some pictures of the food I eat back home. Stay tune for it :) :)

NWA now allows 50 lbs per bag? That is so insane. Two years ago when i went back it was 70 pounds. There was once my luggage was 15 lbs overweight the lady (an east Indian) at NWA checkin asked what were in there and I told her gift for family and friends for CNY. She said I know what you mean. Phew, she smiled and let me go!

Have a safe and great trip!
