Bad Rock

Got my internet connection at home after a month of hermitting myself in this land of 'Far Far Away'. (Seriously serious, they also have a Hollywood-ish sign here - Terengganu style. Check it out here)

So, it's been 5 weeks and 1 day since I left KL. The missing KL syndrome that was so rampant during the first 2 weeks had pretty much subsided, partly because of the heavy load of studies & also due to the nice people here who've helped me to adapt.

I'm staying in a place called Batu Burok, which is not that buruk after all considering that the white sandy beach (much nicer than PD) is just a few steps away from my house (pic).


If there's anything that I like about KT, it's the fact that I can come home after a looonnngg day of being in classes & hospital, say "Let's go to the beach!"; and my housemates & I will be there in a minute. Haha... Am I living in some of your dream homes?

Hermit crabs everywhere!

Well, I'll still miss KL very much for it's convenience in getting food (There's mostly Malay food here and Chinatown is 10 minutes away by car), I'll miss the traffic jams everytime I turn on the radio & hear traffic reports, I'll miss the major shopping malls with cinemas etc. (You see, there's not much of entertainment here so one weekend I went to the newest tourist attraction here and took photos:)


Who says you need cinemas when such dramatic events happen in real life?
