Vacation: Meeting with my old buddy, Mike
4 January 2008 by Two Crazy DogsWhen I was in Ipoh, I met up with only a few buddies of mine: Stef, Samm, Kiran, Mike, and Rose.
Here is Mike with Db and I at Tanjung Tualang for our seafood feast. Here is where you can read about this seafood restaurant. I have known Mike since my Seagate, Ipoh days, all the way back to September/October 1995. Back then Mike has a Japanese restaurant, Bushi, out in Ipoh Garden right across the Fatima Hospital. Both he and I have gone through hell a lot - we know each other so well with our relationships with our ex-es; we cried on each others shoulders, yakked till the sun down and up, boozed and out eating along the hawker stalls and restaurants. It is a strange friendship between him and I, we just clicked on our first meeting in Seagate - he delivered the take out boxes for my orders. We are the best of friends, for me a guy as my best buddy is really rare and vice versa. And now I’m so happy for him, he found this wonderful wife, Vickie, a very soft spoken girl. I met her during our luncheon and also his mom, Gwendolyn (I think) for the very first time, after all these years, even when I was at his parents’ home, I I missed her.
Below is the picture of the happy family, Mike, Vicki and their daughter Yan-Yan (can’t remember her actual name, but all the adults called her Yan-Yan).
Updates about my other buddies will come when I’m bored at work again!!

Barly can remember him. I think I met him only once.
Yeah, I think so, too. When he comes pick me up, it’s always late at night after the restaurant closes.
