ok i just came back from Malaysia like 45 mins ago, i mean reached home, and it's not really Msia but Kuching in Sarawak, Borneo. they merged anyway so fuck it. the moment i came home, i check my hp, took a shit, checked my mail, replied whatever i needed to and then blog.
i didn't do much there cept eat and shit, (one dude and his wife were Veggiemen, like vegetarians) so we ate alot of rice and veggie, that's about it. also i took many photos cause i saw many things i have never seen before in my whole entire life, like those really traditional ways of like as well as the coolio animals at endangered places. one thing about the photos i took: almost 3 rolls (<3x36) but many were badly exposed hahaha damn but since it's my first 'phototrip' i can't be happier since majority of them look fine (after seeing the negatives la, had them done there at 5 ringgit. hope that's cheep).
anyway, other than the food and the shit and the photos, i also watched tv every night cause they had some cable tv channels which i don't at home - very few, like ESPN, Astro Supersport (or something like tht), Discovery and Mtv. i like to watch soccer, just tht i don't get the chance to at home, so i watched it there almost every night out of the 4 nights til i went happily tired and then went to bed. of course, when there wasn't soccer, it would either be some cool show on Discovery or else this month's Mtv featured artist (don't tell you who, go find out) which got me really turned on everytime i saw that little commercial. haha damnz.
okay i can't really say much about the trip in detail apart from the fact that i took many pictures of things i had never seen, and hardly mixed around with the people we went with (Dad's friend and Dad's friend's friends) cause they all spoke a mixture of Chinese, Cantonese, Hokkien/Teochew (they're roughly the same, at least to me) and very little Ang Moh. of course my Chinese is bad, my Hokkien/Teochew is worse and to make it all even more horrid, they communicated primarily in Canton. so communications wise it was all pretty fucked up cept for the few who could converse in proper English or simple Mandarin at a reasonable pace for me to comprehend. there were quite a few of them actually, so i don't really know why i didn't mix much with them. nevermind, there are quite a lot of photos (not really alot, just different shots of the same thing) which i will show you soon enough hopefully and then you will know more about Kuching and the cats there.
uching means 'cat' in Malay and last of all, i didn't shop much there, buying only a t-shirt for myself (SUPER BLINKXZ) and many friendship band things and beaded things which you wear around your wrist. i will be wearing them for the period ahead of me now til all i have with me are spoilt, but i bought so many was also to give them away so flenzzz, i can give them away but you should ask me cause i don't have enough for all my flenz considering that i'm by far a too flenly guy ok not really but point is, ask from me if you want one! if not, i'd just keep changing them as i wear them out. cool seh.
oh ya they also conversed in Bahasa Melayu and of course, i ain't good at it.
