i've tried so many times to upload my pics but it always fails!
_________________________________________________________
anyways..i was in sarawak a few weeks back for a holiday and needless to say i had a great time. will put pics up as soon as i can, promse promise.. :D
about two years back, when the whole family was in kampung one of the cousins took out this old photo album and everyone just begun to look through it and started reminiscing about the old days when suddenly...
there was a picture...
of ME...
when i was about 3 or 4 i think...
TWO WHOLE PAGES, mind you...
POSING.
i couldnt even remember taking those photos.
i was in a variety of poses, sitting, standing, pouting, smiling...oh, the list just goes on and on..
and i was wearing my mom's shades which were super humongous (you know, 80's fashion.. *shudder*)
and the first words that came out of my mind when i saw those pictures?
erm..i was too stunned, i can't even remembered what i said.
i think it went along the lines of
aunt tina looked at me and laughed and told me that she was the one who took those pictures
hehe..some things never change, don't they?
anyways, that sparked a longing to find out more about who geri is when she was a small little girl so i asked amy (my cousin sister who i went back to sarawak with)
geri: how was i like when i was a little girl?
amy: you could speak bidayuh fluently last time..cuz sumuk (grandma) took care of you,right..
geri: HUH? really?
amy: yeah..and i remember you like to take pictures too..
geri: erm..i think that one is too much..damn vain la even as a toddler! (its true, you come to my house and you can see the stacks of photo albums which are just MY pictures alone..)
and so, i asked adrian, my cousin brother..
geri: eh? how was i like when i was small?
adrian: naughty
geri: SERIOUSLY LA
adrian: you and i used to fight all the time last time..cuz you always took my toys away from me..
geri: ha? REALLY? *grins*
adrian: yeah! you used to take my toys away and my mom will ask me to let you play with my toys but i didnt want you to play with my toys
geri: *bursts out laughing* so, i actually kinda bullied you is it?
adrian: ya la! -_-'
my cousin brother is two years older than me and to hear this bit of information really tickled me *grin*
adrian: you also had lots of those jigsaw puzzles..and i remember that you loved to dance..you had a dancing mat, but no one can look at you while you dance
geri: HUH? then whats the point?
i dont think i made lots of sense when i was a small girl.
then during amy's fashion show, auntie jackie asked me why didn't i model one of amy's designs
aunt jackie: last time when you were small, you were always posing here and there you know...
ok, i guess the whole family knows i loved to take pictures.but that phase kind of stopped for a while cuz i think i looked horrible when i was in primary school...ugh..lets not go there..
