I have met some really nice people here. I was recommended a room for rental in a family house for RM400. The room was small with only a queen size bed. Kind of desperate actually. I was supposed to moved in yesterday but deferred because of the heavy rain. I was told off by a friend by calling me cheapskate. Why shall I make myself so miserable? I should just pay and get a whole house by myself. Well, sometimes it is just not the money but I am just too tired. So, I returned the key and now have to start all over again.

Wet days

So depressing

It has been raining non-stopped for the past 48 hours. Just had biscuit for dinner.

New office

New office

Time travel

I am now back to 20 years ago of KB.
Gonna start all over again.

Settling

Got a shabby shack to stay for 2 weeks and did some house cleaning. OMG, the toilet is horrible. Haven't used a squatting toilet for > 10 years.
The only 'grand' shopping centre around.

Wasting time

Waited 2 hours in the state office and another 3 hours at the office just to get the letters signed. What a super warm welcome.
This is going to be my kitchen throughout.

Ginger onion chicken, RM5

Not bad though.
