It was our wedding anniversary and I am so happy that I’ve found the one and only person who has the interest to go with me to the dodgiest alley to look for dingy horse meat satay and also the finest eateries to eat jenahak sprinkled with caviar! What a great anniversary experience @sherilabustaman! It’s so much fun to love you! #TheBustAzlees #Bromance #FuckingFilmmaking
A prestigious boarding school has a notorious tradition that has been going on for decades that, apparently, breeds jantans! We finished watching #ProjekHighCouncil! One half of #TheFatBidinFilmClub actually went to one of these schools in real life. Hmmm…
Are we okay that we, as Malaysians, are not intellectual enough to be able to handle films such as ‘Mentega Terbang’?
Day 3 - #Hatyai
Day 2 - #Danok and #Hatyai
When @sherilabustaman and I asked Athena what she wanted for her birthday, she said the @newjeans_official collectors edition box set. Ughh! I cannot stand K-Pop! But then, I have always been the cool Pops who is always open to everything. So we said yes and we ordered it for her. It arrived from Seoul yesterday! She’s happy, and anyway, like what Uncle Dave said, “My mum let me listen to anything I wanted when I was a kid and it’s made me who I am today. So I’ll let my daughters listen to whatever the fuck they want too!”. But whatever it is, your favourite band is still @weezer, right @athenax.a? RIGHT?? #TheBustAzlees #TheBustAzleeMafakas
