Friday Night Exploits...

Tonight was quite an eventful night. I had a really good time at a church meeting. Friday night meetings are called Access. It's where the church members get together like a normal church service and then have intercessory prayer at the end.

After that, I decided to get Adli and Afzan out for supper. Hadnt seen them in a while. Every outing with them is just so memorable. They're quite a bunch. I actually learned a new malay word today. It's a word I've come across before but never knew the meaning to it.

GEDIK :
Being "gedik" refers to a girl who trys too hard to appear cute. Irritatingly cute. She doesnt only act like that with guys but also with her girlfriends too.
Eg. Perempuan itu gedik macam sial.

Another interesting thing is this incident that Adli was telling me. He was at the airport after a long flight from Malaysia. Came here to see his girlfriend. At the immigration counter....

OFFICER: Hi there.
ADLI: Hello.
OFFICER: So, tell me why are you here in the USA?
(usually here, your options are either "business" or "leisure")
ADLI: Errr....Pleasure.....I'm here to visit my girlfriend.

He made an honest mistake. It took me a while to convince him that it was actually "leisure" and not "pleasure". Hahhaha..

The weather is rather wierd right now. It's sort of raining, but it's flakes of snow coming down. I guess it's sleet then. It's wet, cold and miserable out here. I'm just going to get into my cozy bed and watch The Manchurian Candidate.
