Back in Kuches after arriving last night from Kuala Lumpur. Just getting back into the swing of things and trying to organize my subjects for the semester. Still not totally sure if I’ll be able to finish the year over here but I’m starting to get my head around the idea anyways. Really enjoy the trip to KL with visiting all the major touristy areas like the Golden Triangle area where the twin towers are situated. Disappointing how you’re only able to visit the sky bridge which it is only one third the way up. The area is amazing with the interior of the building really nice and an awesome Asian food court inside ( always thinking about food). Berjaya Times Square which is pretty much a massive shopping center. With stuff being soo cheap I went crazy buying stuff with the girls help. Also the fact that I went to KL with no clothes to intentionally buy something, made it a must. Went on a fair Eye on Malaysia which is a ferris wheel overlooking the city. Afterwards spending 2 hours getting denied by taxi’s. Sunway city , apparently I’ve been told one person owns the entire district. It’s around 30 mins drive out of the city where there are shops , restaurants , hotels and an adventure park which we went to. Huge Water Park which was totally man-made, with a beach area.

3 days later …I started typing this blog but wanted to finish it at a later date. Moving right along,, today I caught up with my Iranian friends. The boys when back to Iran over the uni break and ended up returning with all their luggage full of food. I now have in my possession a few can’s of Iranian pistachio nuts and ended up spending the evening there home having shashi. ( For gezza – its just a massive bong ,, put the favored tobacco on the top with hot cols. Then you inhale thru a pipe connected to the water chamber. As you suck ,, the tobacco is heated by the coal .. ahh I check this out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shisha)

Also looking for a place to stay outside of uni. I ended up following a lead from Eddie’s parents to rent a house. It belongs to a guy who is a missionary who won’t be back for a while. The place isn’t close to uni but Eddie’s dad mention that I could rent one of their cars cheaply. (awesome) I’m trying to get things rolling , but with uni already started, its hard to find people willing to move out. Also being far away it’s a little bit of un known territory which amazingly people are worried about.. The next best things ,, is moving to the off campus accommodation. I just mentioned to somebody today that I was interested moving out and then knew of people needed a roommate in an apartment ( bunch of Srilankans) . So tomorrow I’ll check that out ,, ,, so yeah go a few things on the go .. That’s about it

The the australian's have left, so this is my first night here by myself.
Its the first time living in the hostel by myself and pretty much in a massive
city by myself. So I guess its a time to learn things for myself. Just came back
from dinner by myself and seriously its hard to fully enjoy this city with other
people's company. I ended up having shisha but without friends it isn't the same.
I realise everything about shisha is about hanging around with people and just talking
shit. After talking to people after the hostel after the other guys left I sat down with a
bunch of random's ( that I had seen before) what happened to my lady. Made me think ,
I really can just me people for short term and suddenly forget about them. I guess people
can tell am a person who likes long term ties which isn't the case in this environment. I've always known this but after living like this all this time its hard to change the habit. So after the aussie left in the taxi and hostel owner could see right thru me and understood how upset I was to see my friends were going and asked me afterwards if I wanted to move in a different room. I told him yes at first and then realised that I couldn't be stuffed packing up and that I was also going to leave the next day. But for the moment there I didn't really know what to do and I hate that ..

By now I expect myself to deal better with the situation and not cause myself to feel like this. After losing half a lung from smoking and spending a fair bit money the whole thing was for nothing. Also now after gong up to my room by myself had to lock the door and just reflect where I am. I felt empty ,, but I got my arse down stairs and try to start again .. anwyasy people I know are here so I going to socialise ,, god i'm shit

ALso i've had a few to drink so this will not make sense ,, but its my little notes anywyas

Hi all , I had a blog written up on my laptop at home. Describing my personal feelings and another stuff after the other aussies left for winter semester. Anywas to cut a long story short I ended up going to KL to meet up with the other aussie. Been a fantastic time , I had to resit an exam of tuesday morning. Managed to kill the exam with an hour to spare. Went around uni to re enroll for second semester. At the same time I had a next room meet moving in, where I had stuff all over the room. After enrolled and having to quickly dump all my stuff over my side of the room. It looked like a junk yard but ended to cleaning it up later on during the day. My room mate is pretty quiet, doesn't really have much to say and I try and get conversions going with him. Anyways after all that I had to catch my 6:30 flight to KL. Taxi was taking his time but luckily one of the facilities guy saw me waiting at the gate and ask me if I needed a lift somewhere ( awesome dude). The day was crazy ,, maded me thing about how i'll bored and won't to change things around . I'll going to try and live off campus ,, time to mix it with the local's .. if that makes sense. Anyways here I am in KL ,, been fantastic hanging out with claudia , bec, marcus and sally. Today me went to sunway lagoon ,, pretty much a disneyland in malaysia ,, awesome ,, day ,, anyways time to go out and wake up the girls
