Living in Barcelona,

is pretty much like living in a dream.

Barcelona

Finally here in our cosy little apartment after months of planning and squealing. Was sent off at the airport by the most amazing people but no, no tears.

Settled in yesterday and had the most amazing neighbour take me around the neighbourhood and to the malls. Then spent forever going in and out of stores like Zara Home (I swear my heart beat faster the moment I laid my eyes on it) aaaaaand the second half of my walk being lost. Spent forever trying to get back to the apartment and had too many homesick thoughts. Then spent the rest of the day on WhatsApp because, weak.

Jolene's finally coming over in like an hour and I can't wait to go out and get a proper bite. Had absolutely zero appetite yesterday so now I'm famished and I kind of want to eat everything I see.

And the more I Google and stalk bloggers to find paella/food places, the more thankful I am for my family for funding my trip to Barcelona :') (I have no money ok).

Can no longer find my waist.

Had about 4 meals/day for all 5 days in Malacca and even though I'm 2 kilos heavier now I have no regrets :') We had nonya food, seafood, bak kut teh, satay celup, satay, dim sum and all sorts of other food I can't remember anymore but Malacca is the place to get fat at.

On our first day there we had the best ponteh chicken at Restoran Aunty Lee's which served gewwwwd nonya food but no photos of that because I ate it all before I even remembered my camera existed. 

Tze char dinner after at a place Yin Min grumbled about going to because it turns out that her family heads there for food about 4 times a week hahahahahhaa

Satay at Ah Ket's (though really, they pronounce his name as arcade) satay stall which was pretty cool 'cos we've never had satay that wasn't sweet.

Then drinks at Ramada Plaza,

Leading to an inability to wake up the next day for breakfast = left all alone at home while they went out and stuffed their faces. 

*Okay then got too lazy to finish the rest of the post on the rest of the Malacca trip so...

Plain

Yet I want something extraordinary

I want the moon and I want the stars.
