OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG. Before you go around thinking that these are bimbotic OMGS because someone found something pink and shiny let me tell you that these are horror OMGS.

The flight was alright, what can you expect ? While I was at the airport I realised that I was not flying TO Melbourne. Shucks. Anyway, the flight was OK except that there was this huge bunch, about 20 teenagers who were on a holiday trip. So they were making a lot of noise all through the flight. I wanted to just tell them to shut up and respect the people who woke up at 6 to board the flight and had to go in to work later in the afternoon and therefore needed to sleep on the flight. But someone told them off first and it did not help. It was also bad that the plane was so small, I was a bit shocked. But tired as I was, I managed to fall asleep before being woken up to nasi lemak for breakfast. Urg. Took some food and went back to sleep. I was DEAD TIRED.

The airport was smaller than my school and I was happy that my luggage was not destroyed as I noticed a lot of bags with locks snapped or handles broken. So dangerous man. The taxi to the hotel was fine, but the journey was unbelievably short ! The hotel was fine. Nice big room, Shower and tub, TV, massages (lol) nice carpet, big pool, gym and breakfast. But, there are no buts actually. I like the room. And the hotel. Only that it is not exactly those big hotels in the city that makes you feel glamorous. It is obvious people only come here to sleep and eat, as it is just opposite the place where I work. It is very obvious as these 3 towers are the ONLY high rises on the whole island. But I just like living in hotels, so I was not too disappointed.

Then I checked in to work.There are currently 6 people working. The youngest is 45, the oldest is actually retired. I was not too shocked as I was prewarned but I was still stunned. Imagine if you had to carry anything heavy or bend over to pick up something ? But of course, they are very nice, kinda like parents of your friends. Oh well, just make do. Then I found out that I did not have access to the internet or a phone or even a desk for that matter. Arghh. Sigh. I felt like dying without internet. But I get to share the manager's room with him while everyone else is outside. Lol. See, even the manager must share a desk. Later that night, we had dinner in the town centre. Erm, everything was closed though it was only about 7 pm. Whoa.

By the time I went back to the hotel, the gym was closed, and I was too full to swim. Took out my book and almost fell asleep. Instead I watched reruns of Numb3rs and House instead. I also watched some dumb cartoons. I swear, that is the most amount of TV I have watched in a day this year. At least the bed and pillows were comfortable. Maybe I got used to strange rooms in IH, cause I fell asleep without much trouble. Of course I also rearranged all the furniture in the room, to suit my taste and convenience. As usual. I like it much better now. When I woke up, I turned on the TV. Watched some CNN, some cartoons, and decided to go down for breakfast after debating whether or not to swim. After breakfast came up and watched Amazing Race before I went to work at 9am. YES IT IS THAT LAID BACK. It takes me all of five minutes to reach the office from where I stay. I can already tell that the TV will be my best friend the next month. Also that I will probably save quite a bit of money like this. My appetite is totally gone !! I guess since everything moves slower here, my stomach is probably working half speed to digest.

This morning it rained. Heavily. It was so heavy that from the windows you can only see whiteness. You do not get that in the city since there are so many buildings that they block the rain. But in this lone high rise with nothing to block the rain, it felt like a snow storm. Work here is also very slow. A lot of processing that could probably be automated and done in quarter the time it needs now. The frustration of smiling all through the morning and saying yes while listening to grandfather stories !!!

Right now, I am giving up my lunch to type this in a very dodgy cybercafe which has CHEAPEST rates at RM4 an hour. You have to go through an arcade to get here. So so dodgy.

Wish I was skiing somewhere instead. The computers here smell. So do the people.

Do not even start to ask for pictures. I am still in a state of shock.
