Me. Blog. Yeh.

Ok its gonna be a short one for me, cuz I don't have that much internet time right now.
The past few days have been real busy, and i'll try to re-cap what I've done.
I've been moving around alot, I'ved stayed in Kajang, Subang, USJ, OUG n Bandar Kinrara, all in friends places

I'll start with last week, Thursday:
Went shopping at Times Square and Sungei Wang with Hui Yin and Wendy. Legs sore. Eyes sore. I was so tired that day... How can girls shop for 5 hours straight!?!?!? I'm at a loss
Ate at some restaurant, I can't remember the name, it was... vietnamese I think
food was good, I had some sort of curry with rice, Wendy had assam laksa, and HuiYin had noodles with soup, bt (sigh) since girls are indeed picky sometimes, it ended up with the 3 of us switching our meals clockwise (I had the noodles, Wendy had the curry, and HuiYin had the assam laksa)
Honestly tho... girls, tch...

Anyways, before I get my ass kicked by all the females out there, Friday:
Ok, I went to Joshuas college. TAR College, for Tunku Abdul Rahman College.
Its kinda like school, cept everyones in normal clothes and not uniform, so its kinda like Yr13 in NZ.
Of course, Joshua had to advertise that I was his friend from NZ... his English teacher (who happens to be quite an outspoken person) asked me to get in front of the class and tell everyone bout myself and NZ, and how life is there, etc. etc. i.e. what I've been repeating for the last 2 weeks that I've been here to uncles and aunts and various other relatives
There were the usual jeers and even the question of "Are you single? Do you have a girlfriend?"
Of course, faced with that question, I told the person to kindly get in line for a date, take a number, and I'd get back to her a.s.a.p.
... Ok, so the above didn't happen, all I did was just freeze on the spot and, well, yeah, didn't say anything... What was I supposed to say?
"I'm single, sexy, and I like Chinese food, long walks on the beach, and foot massages, if you're the one, then call me, 019-ImSupaHot" ?!
Although, it would've turned out quite funny...
But thats still not the worst part...

I had to do the Haka. Yeah you know the drill.
I managed to drag Joshua and 2 of his friends into doing it too.
Needless to say, it was embarassing. Apparently I shouted real loud.
And I'm not going to say anymore in order to preserve my integrity (which by the way, has already fallen by a significant amount, to the point of nothingness)
But that was Friday.

Then came Saturday:
Woke up nice and late. Went to Harolds place. Met Chau Sean.
Jammed a lil with the 2 electric gutiars (Chau Sean didn't bring his, Josh did, and Harold has one) It was a good jam session, riffed and played a couple of songs ( Nickelback, Fuel, Switchfoot, Metallica, John Mayer (the odd one out), just to name a few ). After seeing Chau Sean play though, I realised how sucky I am at guitar. But I rule in air guitar. None can withstand the might of my air riffs and air solos!
After that, we went to go makan ( makan = eat ) at the hawkers nearby. Ate chicken rice. It was good. Then we went back to Harolds to get Phang Kit, and all crammed into his car to go play DOTA. Crazy. I won my first game. Had a good time. Changed my screen name from Ben Dover to Haywood Jablomie. :D, for the good little Christian girl out there who's reading it, I think it would be in your best interest NOT to find out what those names refer to/mean.
At 5 we went to Joshuas aunts place for dinner. It was her daughters birthday. Whee!.Talkd to Florence ( Joshua's sis ) for a bit during the dinner ( she seemed a lil left out, cuz most of the girls were younger than her and were obsessing over "Witch" comics ). Josh was kept busy playing "SUPER REAL TENNIS" on my cellphone.
And apparently it was tradition to have a karaoke session after ( singstar, anyone? ;P ) but the machine somehow didn't work. Phew lol. Watched The Descent instead.
A story of 6 hot ( Ok, 5, one of them was real butch), young, female spelunkers goin into a cave and finding something horrible *dum dum DUUUUM* *Spoilers* They all look like the Lord of the Rings extras, just naked and with the ability to jump out of nowhere. No hot chick action. *Spoilers end*
And after, Josh spent pretty much the nite til 3am finishing off his assignment and changing/updating his blog.

However, Sunday:
was the day that we couldn't wake up. At least we got to church in time.
Was supposed to see Jess, but she no turn up. So we go eat nearby.
As we were walking thru a lorong ( alleyway ), Josh and I noticed a cage containing the most rabid thing you'll ever see in K.L.
There it was, a gigantic rat, about the size of one of my legs. Ok, I'm joking, bt it was pretty big.
There were faint traces of another type of orange fur at its head, and all I could deduce from that was that it a.) either ate a cat or b.) it ate an orange wig.
Ah yes. KL's finest. Welcome to Malaysia, truly Asia.

But yeah, later, I had a stressful decision to make. I'll list the potential opportunities.
Plan A: I go to Harolds later, follow him to the Park Royal, do a lil clean up n stuff, go to Sungei Wang nearby and acquire a cache of semi-pirated legal DVDs. And then I follow him home, and later on, don my devilishly hot suit, and dash off to the CHS ( Catholic High School, my old school ) prom, at Park Royal. Oh yeah, Harold was the MC for the prom, so thats why he could get me in for free. As an ambassador of Education and Fine Arts from New Zealand. Yeah. Me. Thats right. LOL
Plan B: a.k.a. Plan A.5: I meet ShingChieh and her family for lunch, and then go to Harolds later, and continue on the rest of Plan A.
Plan C: a.k.a. Plan A.5 beta version: I meet ShingChieh and her family for lunch, and get sent with Florence to the CHS prom, and later, go back with Harold.
Plan D: a.k.a. The original plan *Plan not feasible due to uncle and aunty whose house I was supposed to go to would not be in the house until very late*: I hang out with Joshua, and later, go to dinner with ShingChieh and her family, and then, get sent back to USJ 20 before my aunt and uncle can return from their dinner ( Btw, Josh had a camp to go to at 5am the next morning, so I couldn't really impose on him and his family and stay at his place ).

But in the end, I went for Plan N ( N for (K)Nife! ), and went with ShingChieh and her family to Genting. For the whole day. Only got back very much later.

So that was it, my weekend, I'll tell ya'll bout this week later.
Hmm.
The blog ain't that short either.

Me so tired. - Me
Me so hungi. - Me
Me so corny. - Shirt I noticed, depicting a large ear of corn. Sweating.

I stare at her blankly. My mind is a fritz.
"Kau mahu ini tak?"
What?
"Kau mahu pisang goreng?"
Pisang-... what?!
"...*smoldering stare*..."
"Yeah, satu ringgit."
Phew. My friend saves me again.

To say that I sound, act and feel like a foreigner doesn't justify the feeling.
Everythings just changed now.
Buildings are bigger than they used to be.
Houses, everywhere, double storey, single storey, semi D's, condo's.
The roads... well, its still the same old pot hole ridden, lane faded, gravel chewed roads.
The food: possibly the best part of the trip.

Of course, the inflight food was small. Wasn't the best either, but it kept me sustained. Kept me from biting my neighbours arm off in hunger. Oh and I had a window seat too. In economy class.
I.e. If i needed to go to the toilet, I had to trouble my fellow neighbours. To make it even more entertaining, I'll add that I needed the toilet when we were served out food. That means those lil table thingys in front of us were up. Which also meant me = spiderman.

What did I do for 11.30hrs on the flight? Well...
Watched Charlie n the Choc Factory, Sharkboy n Lavagirl, Bewitched, Stealth, played various forms of trivia n who wants to be a millionaire, and PONG!. Also slept. Or tried too. Plane blankets aren't comfy. In fact, neither is the whole of the economy class, but hey. Oh and if people have told you about how numbing the flight is, and how they sometimes feel the numbness, its a lie. You can't feel a thing. Basically, for most part of the trip, I couldn't feel my gluteus maximus. If the plane had blown up right underneath my ass, I'd say I'd have a relatively painless death.

Well, enough bout my sexy ass.
Arrived back in Malaysia, did the passport thing, got my luggage, went thru customs.
My first time doing it too, didn't mess anything up. Oh, and I have to add, I look like a drug addict in my passport photo. I'll take a pic of it and let u guys see it lol its quite hilarious really.
Its like I'm stoned and trying very hard not to focus.

But anyway, met up with my moms brother and mother. One thing to note tho.
They can't speak english too well. Well, my grandmother can't at all, my moms brother can. A little bit. Enough to get me going anyway.
Needless to say, it was a relatively quiet drive back to Kajang. Kajang. Hmm... Whats famous in Kajang?...
The satay! Thats right :P The City of Satay! lol
Unfortunately, my grandmother and uncle are vegetarians.
No meat. No chicken. No beef. No pork. Nada. Niet. None.

I cried later on that night. Not because I miss my family... But c'mon!!! NO MEAT TO EAT!?!?!?! You would've cried too!!!!!

Hehe but I actually do miss my family. Wonder if anyones broken anything in the house yet.

But yeah, also did my I.C. (Identification Card), which was very well expired, the next day.
More awkward moments when the lady talked to me in Malay. I tried my best to converse in Malay too. I tried I tell ya. But it just didn't come out. She understood English thankfully.

And now I'm in my good friend Joshuas place. He's got a nice homely home. Its real cosy.
Mrs Foong doesn't seem to have aged at all! Alex (my bro), if you're reading this, then she says hi, and also that all your past classmates are also still quite small and short :D. Short stuff.

Might go and play futsal later. Think indoor mini soccer. But transportation is a problem. So, instead, might head out to MidVally MegaMall. Think massive mall. Like 7 or 8 Botany Town Centres stacked on top of each other. M-A-S-S-I-V-E. BEEEEEG. If MidValley MegaMall had a fight with King Kong, King Kong would wiped all over the pavement. Even if King Kong tag teamed with Godzilla, they'd both be wiping the concrete ass of MidValley MegaMall.

And thats it for me today. Oh, and I apologise for not publishing a blog before I left.
I actually did have a post, but, as I was halfway publishing it, my dad turned the LAN off. And the broadband. Which meant that I'd have to start all over again.
It required too much effort, so I chucked in a Firefly dvd and watched it. I'm sorry guys.
I'm a bum. And I can't help it. Well I can, its just that I don't wanna. Don't get me started.

Anyways, on that note, I'll be off. I'll post again as soon as I can!
Hope you guys in NZ are having a good time! Gotta tell me all about what I've missed k?
Laters people!
