Holy! For everyone that was wondering, yes I am still alive and yes I am well. Sorry I haven't posted in so long, but I promise I'll make this a long post to make up for it =)Actually this weekend, while the other three were off partying and having fun, I went to KL to represent the University of Alberta in a Canadian Education Center convention. So I left for KL saturday morning and arrived there at 10:30am, the fair started at 11:00am, and to my surprise it took one whole damn hour to get to the hotel. I ended up getting to the hotel checking in and walking to the Convention center half an hour late.
To my surprise again, the U of A booth was soooooooo damn packed and busy. There was no time to debrief me and I was pushed into the raging masses and told to answer questions. I was initially supposed to answer only general question which, no one was interested in, and the other girl from U of A was to answer the more technical questions, which everyone was interested in. So everyone came up to me asking all of these questions about A levels and O levels and SPMs and STPMS and Jr. Colleges and AMDs and transfer credits which at the time I had no idea what on earth they were. So just to let everyone know, the Malay school system is really weird. They only have grades 1 to 11, and then they go to something called O levels which is also called SPMs and then they go into A Levels which I Believe are called STPMs. They also have something called jr. college which can also be called pre-u.
Anyways, the fair its self closed at 5:00pm but there was so many people interested in U of A that we were there untill 6:00pm, when they actually had to shut the building down. After the fair, I decided to help process the applications and put data into excel sheets. I would have walked around town by myself but knowing that everyone was probably our with their significant other, since it was V-Day, and a little scared to walk around alone decided to help them as much as possible.
However, before we began the applications we went to go get food, and BOY am I ever going to say again that I had the best chicken in the world that day. There were these chicken chunks/balls hanging on these metal rods and there were three colors; white, red, and green. The girl that I was with ordered a mix with one a each color and they would take the balls and grill them up but them in a bed of vegetables and put this delicious sauce over them. We also ordered garlic and cheese naan (flat pita like bread) to go with it which they cooked right there in front of us. They also gave up a bag of red and green curry. So when I ate it I put the curry into the chicken plate and used the naan to scoop it up, but damn the amount of deliciousness in every bite is undescribable .... yuuuuuummmmmmmm yum! Sorry guys, I totally forgot to take a picture of it =(
After eating, we started with the applications and that lasted until 10:00pm and then we all went to our rooms. I forgot to mention that I was staying in a five star business hotel called Hotel Nikko and better yet everything was paid for WOOHOO! I entered my room and finally had a chance look at it properly for the first time ... and damn it was big and damn it was nice.
My very own desk, and flat screen TV!
My very own, I serously think its called, double king sized bed. Very very comfortable, I kid you not.

Lol, my very own nice toilet.
And last but not least my very own bath tub <33
So after I took a good look around the room, I decided to shower my self down and then take a nice and warm bubble bath while listening to some Adelle on my laptop =) lol so relaxing lah! Oh the luxury of having a room all to yourself, so much better then the dorm life.
Nothing much happened on Sunday, the same stuff as the first day and then I had to leave for Singapore right away so I didn't have any time at all to explore KL at all.
Today, I had the best 16 hours of sleep! It felt so damn nice, reminded me of my non-stop sleeping habits back home. After I finally woke up, all of us decided to go to a previously visited mall called Lot 1. We walked around for a little and every one bought a thing or two and then ended up in Pizza Hut some how. It's kind of weird though because the Pizza Hut here is really restaurant-ish here. We ordered a set meal for four people that came with two pizzas, one thin crust and the other pan crust, soup of the day, and a drink called mango surpise (Italian Soda). It was overall pretty good but not that great, but we did finished off with ice cream! Tony got a sundae with smarties, whipped cream and vanilla ice cream, Debbie and Chai got an oreo sundae, and I got myself a sundae with peaches, pineapple, peanuts, whipped cream, and strawberry ice cream, which was quite scrumptious.
Also, on a general note, and for those of you who are also wondering as well. I think everyone is starting to secretly hate each other and get irritated easily by each other. But we are also all secretly forming better and closer bonds to each other =) For instance I'm pretty sure the girls are 'angry' at us today for saying that there is a 'school killer out on the loose' and that 'there is a ghost roaming around hall 8' and that they should 'check their ceilings and beds before they sleep', but I'm pretty sure they still love us, and of couse as the famous Tony line goes 'no homo', and I'm pretty sure all of you that know Debbie, will hear her say in thier heads 'I hate you' in that irreplacable tone =) Lol and then there is Chai who seems to think she can take me on when she gets fed up with me... that in which she can't, of course. BUT on the positve side though, we are all leaving for KK this weekend to relieve all of that stress ... or I think thats what we are going to do, wish us luck lol.
PS- I told you it would be a long post!
