I flew with Air Asia!
Muwhahahaha... I'm home!! So beautiful Malaysia. The northern parts are perfect nature. Well, people up there speak Hokkien, so practically I couldn't understand a single word. Even my parents' Hokkien standard also couldn't make it.

Eg. Lime Juice is called Lime-Iced (Juice) <-> Sng Gum Bing (Not Sng Gum Zhui)
if you call Sng Gum Zhui, they'll hear it as Sng Kark Zhui (meaning plain water).

Their Hokkien is so different... We had a hard time communicating!
One of the days we went up to Perlis and visited Kaki Bukit (one of the mountain caves... so dark!). Kaki Bukit in Singapore is an industrial park, however, in Malaysia it's a tourist landmark! We ate some lunch at the border of Thailand (Hotyai) and Perlis...

So many things we did in Malaysia in these 11 days; practically climbing mountains and crossing seas. Oh yes! The Penang Bridge is another place we'd been through several times!~! A 13km bridge that jams up the traffic every morning in the peak hours.... I couldn't believe my eyes in the first place, but it was true! 13km Penang Bridge jams up every morning!

Well... All I've got to do now is to get rid of the holiday mood and start to get serious with my studies... I've got 8 modules this semester to cope with. And I'm still thinking whether I should pick up Squash on this semester...
