Not a word written here in two and a half years. Well, time to do something about it.
In the last two years I’ve actually done quite a bit including focussing more on photography (pun very much intended), having my first exhibition of my photography work (a solo exhibition in Penang called Senyum Sajalah), making lots of new Penang friends and falling in love with Penang in the process, and most importantly, finally actually relocating to Penang to set something new and wonderful up.
I’ve written about Senyum Sajalah elsewhere and it was featured in The Star and on even mentioned on radio, but if you haven’t read about it, then please go to SenyumSajalah.tumblr.com. I’ve recently been encouraged to finally get up and do some of the follow ups I’ve been promising including the book version and I’m slowly stirring and moving in that direction. You’ll be able to find out more on that site.
In the meantime, I have moved to Penang and currently reside in the flat that belongs to a friend of mine - a new friend who has shown me amazing generosity and kindness. I’m slowly making this place a home and though Mei is not yet here with me, I’m too busy settling in to stop and think about it for too long. Before she comes out this way, there’s budget air travel anyway, and whatsapp and whatnot to help us keep in touch.
One of the things I’ve had to do is to pass my Honda Airwave which I have grown to like very much on to a dealer to sell on. If you’re looking for a very versatile car that has served me well for 8 years,give me a shout.
In her place comes The Tank, a classic 1985 Volvo 240 GL Wagon. She’s quite a comfy thing that is a little rough around the edges, but she brought me the 400 km to Penang from KL where I’d picked her up, without much fuss. She’s getting loving attention from me and the guys at the workshop in Lorong Macalister in Georgetown. They;re Volvo specialists and when I drove her in they all came out excitedly. She’s going to get some care I tell you…
She’s also going to get some coverage as I decided to share some of the experiences of owning and running this 30-year old Swede in The Tank Chronicles. Right here on this blog and on Facebook. Stay tuned…
I will also share a heap of other things that are happening right now, as well as the odd thought that flickers across my consciousness or my soul.
So all in all, expect this blog to get revived and for the light to shine a little brighter now.
