Terima kasih daun keladi...

Someone told me that I have done nothing but to criticise his town and its people since I came here. Well, it’s not all true…

For one thing, I have one person to thank for making my stay in this town bearable. This person has been giving me info about the town, from where to get the essential items for the household to giving out direction to the nearest roti canai joint in town. I don’t know what I would do without this ‘local directory’ of mine.

This person had even gone out of his way to introduce me to another kind soul in this town when I was faced with an unfortunate mishap. With their help, my car’s front bumper had gone from…


this…



to this…



than this…




Amazing ain’t it?


The 2nd guy, Mr. H, didn’t just stop there… This guy had gone out of his way to drive me to the nearest market when I can’t find any store that opens at 8 a.m. And when I mentioned that I was trying to find time to renew my driving license, which I recently discovered had expired since June, he offered to actually have it renewed for me – with no extra charge. His kindness really took me by surprise. Never had I met any mechanic that would provide such extra service. Most of the mechanics in KL only think about the profit that they are gonna make out of you.

Hence, despite the slang and other quirks that I still find a wee bit weird, there are still kind souls in this town… The town with no McD.. uwwwwaaa.. I miss my weekly dosage of McD…
