Still Alive

Yeah baby.. Charm's still alive and kicking. Once again sorry for being MIA for decades. Too many stuff, too little time…lalala all that la.. u know la.. ya la.. (wow feels so good to use 'lah' again!)


First up, I'm back in Malaysia. YEAHHH BABYYY ! Charmster's back in town. Erm not quite actually. I mean… I'm in Kuala Lumpur (KL) at the mo. Not Penang - Our beautiful island where the fun never ceases… {Big grin}


Whoa let's do a retrospective timeline on updates. Can meh so long wo. Can laaa. Inikan Charmine Tung. {Bigger grin}


Ok since last post. Well I've been here and there in London hanging out and stuff, going out with friends for farewell lunches/dinners/outings/overnight-stays. Sighhhhhh I miss you all in London so so much weiiiii…. And a year ago I was like in this pathetic state of mind (which I can be at times) where I was feeling miserable being in cold gloomy London studying last minute (as usual) for my exams. Actually there was a valid reason for being miserable as some of you might know. (Well we wouldn't go into that area now, would we?) And now one year later I cant let go of London. I'm actually getting used to living there and thinking of getting a UK PR. As in Permanent Resident holder. {Wide-tooth-grin}


Anyways I wanted to make this a special "I-Miss-London-So-GD-Much" post where I'm gonna mention some of those special friends here that make my life so colourful in gray London. But I have a strict military style timeline (yeah right) and so I would reschedule that special post ya. {winkx}


As I was saying, everything was in a rush as I tried to accommodate everyone and tried to settle my stuff as well yada yada. My luggage was 30 over kg (note we can only have a limit of 20-25kg) and the lady at the counter wouldn't let me in unless I pay the penalty for excess weight. I forgot how much it was but I think it's sumtin like £20 per kilo? Die man I started chucking stuff out and was left with urgent stuff that I really need home pronto. The rest would be shipped back home together with my other belongings. After showing some college letter and some persuasion, I was let in.

I cried like crap at the airport coz I cant let go of this place which brings so much fond memories. After all the hugging and goodbyes I am on zee plane…

Airbus mind you. {Grins} It's really comfortable and I had 1 whole row to myself so I could lie down straight yayy…


{ok now back to solemn tone}

I'm leaving on a jet plane… Don't know when I'll be back again… Oh babe I hate to go…ohhhh


Flight was miserable. Memories kept flooding in. I read everyone's farewell card and couldn't stop having tears. Especially Amman's where he wrote part 2 of the crystal forest story. =( Well I guess life goes on. Or does it?

……….

Anyway flight reached Singapore safely where I was picked up by good ol' Charles. He got everything sorted out for me there and I was grateful for having him around. Showed me round Singapore before dropping me at the coach station where I board the Bus to Kuala Lumpur, the capital city of Malaysia (Malaysia is sort of between Thailand and Singapore). Reason why my journey's like this is because it's cheaper this way and I'm sure you all know how tight my budget is right? So yea.


Reach KL safely after 5 hours, was picked up by Jeremy, Winda and Lydia. And so I am staying with them, along with Timmy and Shafiq, the other 2 dudes in the condo. Ok it sounds bombastic and all, me staying in a condominium but it's actually pretty dodgy with weird pervert-looking guys around.


I got followed last Thu night as I was coming home from a birthday party. I freaked out like crap and kept praying for protection the whole time. I mean, anytime that fella could've pointed out a knife at me at the lift and there wouldn't be anything I could do about it. I got home safe and texted to my family n some Christian brothers and sisters for prayer requests. Thanks for the prayers Amos, Daniel, Sam, Jo and Ling.

My parents gave me the ultimatum.


DO NOT GO OUT ANYMORE UNLESS PROPER FRIENDS DROP U ON YOUR DOORSTEP.

NO GOING OUT AT ALL TILL AFTER YOUR EXAMS.


Hmmm. No comments. Coz it's all justified. So yea..


Anywaysss more stuff about work would be in next blog. Righttt up yippppieeee
