..actually i didn't gain much lbs, if any, because i didn't really eat too often, only tried a bit here and a bit there (just ask drifit) + traveled on feet a lot (sweat a lot)... actually i was looking for a different type of satay whilst in M'sia...but after seeing all the satays in S'pore food court, i no longer had the appetite to try them..
^^Actually..^^ ..i was looking for that in KL...The closest thing i got to a satay celup was Lok-Lok but that was in Penang..anyway, next time..

Yup. i saw somewhere in the internet someone also complained about the hard landing of the air asia plane at Terengganu and Kelantan. Scary huh? did u manage to record that landing, chris?
nice documentaries of your trip, too bad u swing your camera too fast feels like watching the remake of a horror movie in your day 2 clip @ abt 1.40 so sad u did not focus on the paintings on the wall, its in the guinness book of world records for the longest painting on walls
zpeed, yes, if you were there with me, then i would've focused and recorded more on the painting(s) on the wall..
IF Only......well you'll have to make do with what u have cause the place is being torn down for development
