EDIT//

Hello. My feet hurt from walking around for 7 hours.

Before I start,

I'm going to start referring to Phoby as Phoebe. Dont ask why. I just think it somehow makes my posts look a little neater. As Phoebe would say, OCD attack ! Hahah. And I'm going to make my conversations more colourful and the colours arent going to be fixed. I'll change them
as I please.

Ok, updates.

Was supposed to meet Phoebe and Ray at The Spring at 12pm today. Woke up around 10 something am to Phoebe's call and text telling me to meet them there at 11am instead. It took a while before it finally registered that I had 45 minutes to get outta bed, shower and get dressed. Yes, it takes me a while just to get out of bed. Most of the time, I lie in bed for a few minutes hoping I'm just dreaming and wishing I can go back to sleep or wondering why the world is so cruel and wakes you up at such ungodly hours. Once I realize theres no hope of me being able to go back to sleep, then, I get up.

All of us were late. Got there aro
und 11.45am to find only Ray there. Called Phoebe and she and Kara were lost. HAHAH. Went to Big Apple with Ray first. While we were picking donuts, one of the guys working there said to me "kawan mek kirim salam pada kitak" which is bahasa sarawak for my friend.. uh.. kirim salam la. Hahah. Couldnt translate it right. I didnt hear him right and thought he was saying something about plastic so I just ignored it. HAHAH.

Went to MPH after that. Ray and I were checking out all the pre-u books. Dont ask. There were lots of SAT books and Ray starts chanting "sat ! sat ! sat !" Yeah, I know, retard. We were standing there talking and arguing about it for a while and this chinese man there who kept glancing at us starts talking to us.

chinese man: excuse me, can I ask where you're from ?

me: umm, we're from kl.
chinese man: youre both on holiday here is it ?
me: uh, yeah.
Ray: *walks away trying to hold back her laughter*
*chinese man talks to me about how I find kuching*
chinese man: if you dont mind me asking, what race are you ?
me: I'm half ceylonese, half eurasian.
chinese man: oh, no wonder. you dont look malaysian.

me: is it ? hahah.
chinese man: yes. you have an accent ah. your mother or father is eurasian ?
me: do I ? my mother.
chinese man: so youre studying in kl ? doing matriculation or ?
me: yeah, in kl. no, I'm in a private college.
chinese man: what do you aspire to be ?
me: I'm going to do medicine.
chinese man: wow ! youre grades must be very good ah.
me: hahah. yeah, theyre good enough.
chinese man: you have a very nice accent. you speak english very well.
me: thank you. it was nice meeting you.

chinese man: nice meeting you too.

It was so random. He was kinda weird but nice. I'm used to this though. I've had people come up to me just to ask what race I am. HAHAH. I dont know why I just posted that conversation up. Fuck it la, I already typed it all out, not gonna erase it now.

Went to the bottom floor to wait for Phoebe. As we were going down the escalator, the boys on the escalator next to us that was going up were saying "hi", one after the other. Felt my cheeks burn with embarassment, dont know why. Hahah. Too bad none of them were cute.

Didnt notice Phoebe walk in cos Ray and I were too distracted by her green kiwi donut. Phoebe comes up behind us and grabs our necks, giving me a fright. Met Kara in the flesh for the first time. She's so preeeetty. Kara, I know youre reading this ! HAHAH.

Walked around for a bit with Phoby and then we went to Center Point, the abandoned-looking mall with the scary sensor escalators that Ray and I are terrified of. The only reason we go there is cos of Rupert Rage, a cool skateboard shop. The shop is pretty small but there are like 7 guys working there. Their pretty funny. Overheard one of them talking. Well, he was talking so loud, it was impossible not to. In a typical malaysian accent, he was saying "the ghetto, the ghetto, you know the ghetto town in noo yok ceety ? ah, there lah. got a lot there. I go there lah. mek rasa cool. at the ghetto." HAHAH.

We wanted to go buy skating buttons but they didnt have the ones we wanted.): We were flipping through decks and there were a lot of decks with pro skaters' names on them.

Me: if they have a Ryan Sheckler deck... I'll die.

Ray: lets hope they have a Ryan Sheckler deck then.
Me: *spots a Ryan Sheckler deck and gasps*
Phoby: howh, man.
Ray: I thought she was supposed to die.
Phoby: why arent you dying ?

I've been attracted to bright green things a lot lately. I was mostly attracted to all the green decks. I think I finally have a favourite colour ! BRIGHT GREEN ! Before this, I never really had a favourite colour. I liked anything bright. I'm happy I have a favourite colour now. Heehee. And I'm so happy its not something like pink. I dont have anything against pink. Pink is awesome but a girl who's favourite colour is pink ? Too common.

Kara picked Phoebe up from Centre Point around 4pm. Then Ray and I went to McDonalds to get ice cream. Walked around Sarawak Plaza after that. There were rempits everywhere. This gang of rempits were behind us on the escalator. One of them practically pushed Ray out of the way and stood next to me and started talking to me. He was obviously talking in bahasa sarawak so I'll just translate it to english.

Malay guy: you know, you look like a hindi actress.
Me: *looks at him and then looks away*
Malay guy: really. I'm telling the truth. you look like a hindi actress. very pretty.
Me: *smiles half heartedly and walks away with Ray*

I'm not actually this rude to people but that guy was a total loser
and I was pissed off at how he shoved Ray out of the way like that so I didnt bother saying two words to him.

Went to Tun Jugah after that and Ray started doing her Mr.Ma dance in the bathroom the minute she heard 'Pokerface'.


Me: showing off our underwear huh. what are we future Victoria Secret models ?
Ray: more like future Victoria Secret sluts !
(this isnt to actually show off our undies kay. its an inside joke).

Walked into this store called 'Pork Chop and Pigs' or something like that. Everything there had to do with pigs. Mugs, stuffed animals, shirts, pillows, cards, toys, you name it. Ray went insane ! It was hilarious. The boy and girl working there were very amused.

EDIT:
There was this table of chinese men at this chinese coffee shop that we passed by and they started meowing at us as we walked by. Yes, meowing. They were like "meow meow meow ! reouwr reouwr !" in deep rough voices. Almost died laughing. Seriously, meowing
to get a girls attention ? Thats a new one. I guess thats why they call it Kuching.

Went into random stores along the streets for a while.There were like batallions of rempits everywhere and boy, do they get excited when they see girls. So many icky guys driving by slowed down and rolled the screens down to say "hi". I just stared at them blankly and continued eating my ice cream. HAHAH. There were a few middle eastern guys who were smiling at me while Ray and I were waiting outside Tun Jugah who would've been cute if they weren't so hairy and didnt have unibrows.

2 more weeks of school and then holladay for 2 weeks. I'm going to kl. I cant wait.
