i'm home!
well, i've been home for a bit... and i don't even know where to begin my little bitchfest O.o i suppose i'm just going to make a nice, little list:
#1 my flight was absolutely fantastic :D sooo fantastic that i never want to sit in anything that moves for more than 30 minutes ever again -_- 20 hours in a fucking plane, one aisle and a seat away from a kid that WAILS every 10 seconds causes irreversible brain damage O.o yes, i'm not joking: TWENTY HOURS.
#2 90% of asian women can't apply make up to save their own lives. i will shamelessly admit that i am one of them and therefore will steer clear of painting my face unless in a cruel and ironic twist of fate, i get a job as a traditional chinese opera singer...
for those who can't but still do anyway this is all i have to say: there more colours in life than just baby blue eye shadow and shades of pink cheeks that put a baboon's ass to shame :)
#3 it's so technologically backwards here i am going to KILL myself. the pc in my sister's room is a bloody bathroom appliance that has only one function: to gather dust. the dsl is rubbish (don't be expecting any pictures until i am able to whore myself out for a decent cable line next week :p) and the dial up is almost as entertaining as watching paint dry.
#4 my hair is a disaster O.o it's a cross between a china doll and an 80's female rocker -_- sigh, i suppose it doesn't really help that my hairstylist was listening to the bangles while she was trimming away at my locks O.o
#5 people in malaysia are so jaded O.o ok, maybe i just got back from madison and people over there are generally nicer but in all honesty, people here shuffle through their work days half-heartedly O.o they don't even look at you (much less smile) when you're trying to get something done with/from them. ugh.
ok, granted if you look anything but asian, they will bend over backwards to help you. malaysian tourism ethics at its best! bunch of fucking hypocrites.
#6 family wedding dinners scare me.
yep, that pretty much sums up my first week back ^^;
well, it's not all that bad ;)
there are the embarssing bits too... for example, struggling with malay and cantonese so much that ordering while at a kopi tiam and/or mamak stall is almost as stressful as taking my spm malay oral exam O.o i suppose my amazingly poor command of cantonese was one of the reasons why my hair length was drastically shortened unintentionally :p
i can't wait to embark on my adventure to the ss2 pasar malam (night market) tomorrow night xD
anyway, i should write part 2 some time next week since i'm terribly afraid that the modem will just blow up if i do something out of the norm like checking email O.o stay tuned for more fantastic adventures of the tiny tropical peninsular, live next week! :D
