I came back from my weekend trip to Malaysia. It was quite interesting. You know, it's weird, when I was in Malaysia, I couldn't stop thinking about my blog. How unupdated it was. So, I was listing in my head all the topics I could write about on my blog. It was a writer's rush that I could never explain.
So, I went to malaysia for a relative's relative's wedding. It was suuuppeer cool. Okay. So, there was this major strict disciplin at Woodlands Immigration Checkpoint. It was really funny. There was this one police guy who kept pointing at cars to signal for them to move to the next line. My dad was being so cynical and all negative about it. He kept saying that it was rude to point at people and that the checkpoint should enforce more courtesy. After our car was checked 347807 times (which is really dumb because since when will Mas Selamat hide in the boot of a car with a family of five wearing baju kurung in it and all), when zoomed off to danga bay.
You know, while driving around malaysia, I noticed that the Malay language is really limited. I don't know why. But while singapore has really nice names for shops like Parlor De' Excellence, Give your hair the true golden treatment it deserves.... But then, at malaysia, they name their hair salons names like Tempat Gunting Rambut (Place to cut hair). It is really annoying. Names in singapore for car garages are like Honda Mechanical Service Centre. At malaysia its called Tempat Membaiki kereta(place to fix cars). it makes no sense.
You know recently, there was an election in malaysia. So everywhere you go, you see all these posters and flags convincing people to vote for this particular government part or whatever. So in johor, there is this certain street linking to the highway. The ENTIRE ROAD IS DECKED WITH BLUE FLAGS WITH THE GOVERNMENT PARTY's LOGO ON IT. Which is pretty dumb. What are these people trying to say? 'Oh. We can afford to buy alot of flags instead of helping to solve the financial crisis in Malaysia. Vote for us.' ...
I love the food in malaysia. You have to admit that one of the reasons why malaysia is sooo popular is because of the food. At the wedding, the food there is soo fantastic. Wooh.
okay. i have to go. my dad is back.
