The 15minutes of Snow

The snow came for like just 15minutes, it was about 6hours before this picture was taken, but the ice still remained frozen-hard on most of the cars here. I almost fell on my back on the way to my dorm because almost all the roads were covered in ice!

There is like this big basketball court that I always walk through, just to get to the other side faster. But as I started walking it felt like walking on ice! The court was flat and smooth, with no friction what-so-ever, and I was already half way through. So, I forced myself to just continue walking like a geisha.

The horrifying part was that there was no forms of rail or any support I could grab on to while walking on that court, just in case if I stumbled. So I was like, "..just 10meters more, you can do it! you'll make it! don't fall damn it!!"

My malaysian-shoes are so not made for winter.

Well, it did protect me from the cold, but not from falling.

What 2012 meant to me

At the beginning of this year there was only one thing I was excited about, my first internship. It was located at Cyberjaya , and seeing that commuting back and forth to my parents home will be a big hassle there's only one thing I have to do. Rent out a place of my own. I know that within the western culture having to live in your own place after college is a big deal. Well, not so much for most Malaysians. In my opinion, having your own place would either mean you got a huge sack of cash hidden somewhere, or you have a stable job that provide you more sack of cash. In other words, people with a lot of cash. On my first day of my internship, my colleague offered me a room in their terrace. Apparently no one was using the room anyway so it only make sense for me to rent it. Plus I don't even have to worry about driving since we can carpool together. The room didn't come with a bed but one of them lent me an extra mattress she got from her old neighbour-friend that move

The Dormitory

This is what my dormitory looks like. It's almost like a real apartment. Quite small, but for a college student it's very comfortable, with a private bathroom. What I like about it is that it got all the basics that I need. They got self service washing machines, but for the dryer we have to pay 1 usd for each use. They also have a huge gym room, and a computer room you can use at any time. The microwave and the water dispenser is a plus.
