* phew....
In the month of Feruary...
Snagged a hunk in London ...
Alone in Wien...
Group hug with great friends in Slovenia...
Nice foursome in Budapest...
Wonderful companion & guide in mystical Istanbul...
Final days in Berlin. Farewell with some trainees & Aiesecers at my apartment
Finally....touched down.... Malaysia truly Asia...
After 10 hours flight, 4 hours transit and 3 hours bus ride, i'm finally back home. Everything is so familiar again... things haven't changed...
Boy, did i really spend the past half year in another country?? The feeling is so surreal....can't believe time passed so fast (especially when you're having fun ;)
What do i feel being back home? It's really a mix of emotions for me. It's great to see your family again...to give your mom & dad a great big hug.....to be able to eat all the yummy food i"ve been craving for (my mom really took my list seriously...ok...assam laksa down...29 more to go ;p)
but i DO miss Berlin and all the great friends i got to know there.... AND i miss the cold winter ;p (the europeans will say i'm crazy) ..it's so bloody HOT here... :p
I did this list when i 1st arrived in Berlin....so it's appropriate that I do a list of stuff i need to get used to again now that i'm back here in Malaysia...
1) Traffic. Forget about the S-bahns and U-bahns. Gotta get used to the right side driving again. (Not to mention the road maniacs and traffic jams)
2) Crossing streets. Cars that DO NOT stop for pedestrians.
3) Weather. Panas panas panas! Time to bring out the umbrellas, hats and sunblocks (and deoderant too).
4) Clothes. No more itchy wool sweaters. Bring out the singlets, minis and flip flops! :p
5) TeeVee. CSI....Desperate Housewives...Grey's Anatomy...Discovery...ANTM...HBO...Starworld...8TV... need i say more?
6) Language. I miss having to say "Entshuldigung"... "Danke Schön" ... "Bitte Schön"..."Keine Ahnung"..."Tschüs"... and of course "Ein Bier bitte"
7) Essen. Food food Glorious food!! There are more stuff other than Kartoffel or Döner kebab here. :D (and forget about the sandwiches)
8) Keyboard. Have to get used to the un-German keyboard. Reverse position for the 'Y' and 'Z' etc.
9) Checking my mail every 2 minutes for spams (you Berlin people know what i mean ;)
10) Going online to get the best deals for flights and hostels for trips.

My beloved piu cheh!
Welcome back. :) I know how it feels to be back after being away for a bit. It's like good and bad, happy and sad, at the same time, isn't it?
Anyways, take care you. Hope to see you soon when you come back to jam packed Kay Ell. xoxo.
You are back home and not in Berlin - why is time always running so fast?
Everybody is leaving this city now because of the wet and cold weather to Turkey, Spain, China... and Malaysia. Keep posting funny lists ;-)

My lovely Su Wern!
I know exactly what you mean and feel very much familiar when I read ur list :P
I think that is the great part of life.. to be able to change, to have to get used to new things and not even have the chance to get bored of them when u already have to face new ones... those changes make ur life different and it's what God brings to u to grow, to learn and to enjoy... so, take the most out of ur time with ur family and have fun!!!
when u never expect changes come and shake ur life with positive things ;)
I miss u very very much... so, I keep checking ur blog and my inbox :P
HUGE LATIN HUG
