3rd of January - First Day in Malaysia
Lunch time: First day of my expedition, probably an attempt to run away from a lot of things. Now, I'm waiting for Jean at the Parkway bus stop. Man the heat and hunger - not a good combination.
Anyway I'm quite excited that I'm going to Malaysia. I'm also surprised that the plan (to meet the gals, my housemates, for a holiday came through. In fact I'm going to different parts of Malaysia to see my babies! I can't wait!
5pm: Had lunch with Jean at Bakers Inn in Raffles City. I have to say that..............................the service really sucked. At times like these i wish that i were back in Australia.
hahaha one of those self-portraits taken with my baby - JEANNIEEEE BABYYY =)))
I met Mr Lai at the Fu Lu Shou Complex to take a bus to Johor. We're on our way to Larkin (in Johor). I also have to say that we experienced horrible service at the Malaysian check-point. This particular man who accepted money, in exchange for 'helping' people fill in the immigration forms, kept making us walk to and fro. He was also exceptionally rude to Lai and I. Damn it. If I had a gun, I would shoot him. hahah!
in the bus, on our way to Larkin. I almost got lost because I was distracted by the rood side stalls. ahhh food makes the world go round!
Anyway I'm excited because we're meeting a friend in Larkin, Chiang Wey (a former associate from MUISS). He stays in Johor so we decided to call him out for a meal.
Hello Cheap food!!! I hope i don't get any bad cases of diarrhea that accompanies the latter!
5.30pm: We're in Maccas and Lai's taking a damn long time to order a coke. We're waiting for CW before we make our next move - which shop we should actually buy the tickets from. Upon arrival there were so many people touting and making us offers. I really hope CW can come quick so at least we wouldn't be/get 'cheated' because we're obvious tourists.
Renee! Welcome to the land of Malays and Malay-speaking Chinese and Indians!
Close to 8pm: We're waiting for 8.30pm so we can board the bus. We had MarryBrown and now we're in Maccas again. I'm quite dreading the bus ride. The thought or the prospect of 9 hours in the bus, not being able to do anything is quite daunting. Sigh, the other time with kenneth almost killed me AND it was only a close-to 3-hour ride.
hahahahha taken in MarryBrown. I got a little disgusted in that restaurant because i saw a couple of nympts (shit i can't spell for nuts) scampering around. ulgh!
Waiting for time to pass in Marrybrown, disgusting Marrybrown.
Waiting makes you as crazy as my dear ol' friend here, Mr Macdonalds.
Argh! God save Renee!!!
