The France Exploration Conclusion

Hello there, as you all know, i've been in France for more than 3 weeks now. And in these 3 weeks, i've noticed some interesting things that i would like to share with you guys. Haha.

1. First of all, they have a big problem with cash. Seriously. If you go to a shop, sometimes they don't accept your cash cos it's too big. And so, you have to find an alternative. You can either use your bank card (which you don't have when you're new there), or you can ask for it from your friends. So yea, there are a few erm.. cases where i don't have small money and so, i have to go around and ask my friends if they have small money. yep, it could make a the line become chaotic. But nah.. i'm sure the French don't mind. Considering how chaotic their airport is. But once you get used to the system.. yea.. things are ok.

2. Deuxièmement! There are dog shit everywhere! My gosh. Seriously, i hate this so much. it really kills your appetite to see dog shit near the restaurant where you're eating or when you're going to eat. And you spend a lot of time looking down to scan for dog shit till you didn't notice how beautiful the sky is. Like today, i just noticed that the rooftops of the building here are nice. I like to see those small chimney on the rooftops. Maybe they should design a spectacles that can scan for dog shit here. Or better, just educate them to pick it up when their dog pooped.

3. Public toilet! God knows that they have a really big problem with it here. The other day, i went to Nice, and then, i wanted to go to the toilet. And we looked for it everywhere. They do have it in the restaurant. I went to MCD. There is a toilet there. But the toilet is locked. you need a security code to go to the toilet. Where to get the code? In your receipt. Meaning you have to buy something from them in order to use it. It's good idea. Seriously. You wouldn't want the public to use your toilet freely and your establishment is the one who have to pay for it. But it kinda give you the impression that using the toilet here is as hard as penetrating into the President's office. Because of the limited number of public toilet here, the alley smells like pee. And whe n i was at the beach, i saw some people who peed in the sea. Pretty uncivilised for someone who claimed to be one of the greatest civilisation now eh?

So yea, that's all for now i guess. France is not that bad actually. These are just small stuffs i guess. But if you're planning to go here, just watch your step. You wouldn't want to bring back a lil souvenir from the man's best friend here.

Bye.

Hi there,

I havn't posted anything for quite along time now. So i was going through youtube and watch Beirut's Postcards From Italy music video. And i was like.. WOW.. I forgot how beautiful this song is. And i just have to post it somewhere. Haha. So here i am.

Seriously, Zach Condon really is one of the most talented musician to me. This song always make me feel.. happy and calm. Haha. Just check it out yourself then you'd understand. It reminds me of someone who i'm deeply in love with but distance separates us. But memories will always remind us of the good times when we were together. :) :)

Gosh i miss playing my uke. And i din't bring it to France. Sigh.. The other day when i was on my way home, i heard someone playing the uke in his garden.. it's spring and it was windy at that time. So yea.. How i wish i have my uke with me. Haha.



So anyway, i also found out that Florence And The Machine made a cover for this song. And my gosh.. it's horrible. I think Beirut is like a million times better than them. Her voice sound so fake. And you can't sense the emotions when she sings it. Zach Condon did it with emotions, they don't. So yea.. The original is so much better.

That's all for now.

:( :(

Still no new emails in my inbox.. :( :(

Missing you..

Im going to finish my program in 2 more weeks. Then, about 2 weeks after that, i'l fly off to France. In that 2 weeks, i'l be back in Kuching while my Nabila will stay at her college to finish her semestre.. :( That means we wont be seeing each other at Kuching.. :(
I guess that's the price for long distance relationship. Right now, she's back at home for her mid-sem break. So we still cant see each other.. Sigh.. I miss her so much right now..

Im sure the coming holidays won't be the same. Usually, we'd have the same semestre break. And we'd spend a lot of times together. Gosh i miss those times...



I miss her soo much... :(

I WANT TO GO HOME.......... :( :(

Hola!

Hello there.

Yes, ive reactivated this blog. Haha. Tumblr is just not my stuffs. It's too sleek. Besides, most of my frens doesnt use tumblr... yet ;) . so I don't have comments or things like that. haha. So yeah.. i think i'l just stick with blogger. But i'l still keep my tumblr though. Just like facebook last time (the times when i use fb n people told me i shud use friendster cos its cooler), im sure one day later people will start flocking tumblr. So yea.. Just waiting for the right time mate. Haha.

I wont write much in this one post. I have plenty of other posts to come.. My jedi senses tell me so. :p so nabila :) u want updates? i'l give u some. :) haha

Surfing the void.. n others

Currently I'm so addicted to klaxon's new album- Surfing the void. Seriously, flash memories is one of their best songs. I can just listen to this song on repeat. I love the tune. It's so... unique. Haha. To me, the tune kinda change without you noticing it. Like, they just do whatever they like with it. At first it does sound a bit weird. But its tat uniqueness in their songs which make me like this band. If you want typical music, listen to the radio and have fun with your crappy mainstream songs. A dose of Usher and the bitches should do the trick. If you're into real music, then you should try listening to klaxons. They're great.


Other songs in this album which im hooked with are:

-Flashover
-Twin Flames
-Echoes

It has been so tiring for the past few weeks. N its not over yet. I still have a physics test this friday. Im stressed out from all these. But hey, i guess thats just life. So i just have to bear with it. so anyway the point is, i've been stressed out lately, so im sorry if ive hurt any of you out there. Especially you nabila.. Im soo sorry for hurting you or being harsh to you. I hope you understand. Im sorry if we cant really text or call each other. Im sure you're busy as well now. So i hope you understand. But hey, look at the bright side dear, we'll be seeing each other soon. And we can talk and be with each other as much as we want for he holidays. Haha. So syg, just hold on for a little while ok. :) I promise to make up for these few weeks :) And besides, i think someone owes me a 'pinch' . :P right dear?

Im sure you're still studying for your physics test tomorrow. So i wont be bothering you dear :) Good luck for your test and I know you can do it :)
