The one Far, Far Away...

So ar... I very long never blog d lor hor? Why? Because Far, Far Away, where I stay, cannot access Blogspot one lor.. Why? I have no idea.. but sumhow managed to find my way round that little problem.. and now.. I am blogging. I'm sure my housemates will be very, very happy to see that Juls FINALLY blogged!

What the @#$!?.. Did u say that u're Far, Far Away?

Yes.. I am.. very far awaya actually. It's a long story.. the gist of it is that I'm here to work. Yeap.. this 'banana' girl who can't even speak the language properly.. is here Far, Far Away trying to build a career. Unbelievable isn't it? Well, believe it.

SO been here more than a month now.. and how am I doing? Pretty good actually. Before I got here I heard lotsa horror stories about not being able to find bread, potatoes, anything western (e.g. pizza, pasta, steak and such), fresh seafood, Japanese food that will probably kill u, people doin their 'business' publicly (and I dun mean the kind that gives u a profit) and all that la.. But............. so far no major horror.

Anyhow basically, found bread, pasta, damn fucking good Japanese food, fresh seafood (the fish are still swimming in supermarkets and the crabs are still trying to escape), found cheese, even found roti canai for goodness sake! So, it's all good. Damn good. And thats just the food bit. Haven't started talking about shopping yet.. and trust me.. there's a lot to talk about when it comes to shopping.. (so will leave that to next post).

Also found a place to stay.. a very nice place too.. It's an interior designed joint, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, one kitchen and one huge LCD tv (yes Mr. Chan.. I have an LCD tv in my cave). Not bad eh?

The weather is now 3 degrees and tomorrow is gonna be -3. It's kinda like Perth all over again man.. 'cept.. dun have u guys.. (awwww...) I miss the winters in Perth.. walking to McD's in the middle of the night for ice cream or fries, watching late night movies (usually sum kinda porn, thanks to Mr. Chan's brilliant movie selections). Oh well, those were the days. Now, we've all got different lives in different parts of the world, Mr. Chan's in a cave.. somewhere..filling his days with drawing pictures of stickmen hunting buffaloes and elephants on the walls, Mat Rempit #2 is a KL-lite, recent MBA holder who is best friends with a native of Arabia and Mat Rempit #1 is freaking Far, Far Away freezing her nips off while enjoying her 'big screen tv'.. (hahaha.. yeah baby, that's what we're calling it nowadays).

Though we're all far apart, I guess one thing remains the same..

Not a single day goes by that we dun hope with all our hearts that....

SOMEONE WILL JUST BLOG ALREADY!

So.. I did. Mr. Chan did.

That leaves one that didn't... the MBA holder aka Mat Rempit #2. So member, you know what to do la hor...

By the way, last Saturday.. it snowed.. never in 26 years of my life have I ever seen snow. I was soooooooooooooooooooooo excited and I watched the snow fall from my window, 19 storeys above ground. In all the excitement, I could only think of one thing..... that is.. "If only we had snow in Perth.."

Looks like no matter where we go.. memories of Perth will still remain..

Till next time.. 我是 Mat Rempit #1 签字 (I am Mat Rempit #2 signing off)
