Malaysia

Went Johor for the weekends to attend some events held there. It was a whole group of us and to save$$ 6 of us shared one single room in some famous(i heard) hotel in Johor--Austin hill golf resort or sth... quite cool...the resort was huge..in the sense the proportion of the building..huge columns with veh high ceilings. the corridoor was like an art museum and it was really laid with art works. but too bad, to prepare for the events, we left the resort like 6am in the morning for both days and only return to it at around 12am.

Most of our time was spent outside...personally i'm really not used to Malaysia. it seems soo barren to me. i'm simply too used to the ubiquitous sight of HDB flats and tall buildings. I feel so fortunate to be in Singapore ( no offence to Malaysians) but really, its sooo inconvenient in there...it feels so unkempt with broken pavements, rundown buildings etc.While we were helping to clean the area for the event, i met a lil boy who asked my sis if she is from Singapore, she asked him was it due to her singaporean accent or the way she dressed? He said no, then he said because Singaporeans emphasize more on cleanliness... we went like dots....but serious, i find the place really unkempt. i guess Malaysia is considered alright, if i were to go India or some other third world countries, i dunno how i can adjust to it....I should appreciate Singapore more. Hahas..Singapore i Love ya!!!! I realised that the more traditional Malaysian chinese kids are really quite different from Singaporean kids. they tend to me more "innocent" and simple. even though the group of them are like older then me, they look younger and act younger then me..hahas...i felt so weird..of yea, met several political leaders of Malaysia. I guess things are different here and there. Here are some pics of the resort..didn have time to really take pics. also my mom didn allow me to bring my cam, so all taken with my hp...
