update part 1

life is good here. i seriously think i do more walking here in a day then i do back home in a week. i walk to the trolley stop everyday- about 10 minutes there and another back. and some days, i'll have to sprint to the trolley stop because if you have mean trolley drivers, they'll just leave you there even though they see you running.

the weather is great this week. not too cold not to hot. i think the locals call this the perfect weather. work is good. i sell photos to happy tourists. i wish them 'have a nice day' and they wish me back 'you too'. ahhh...life is good.

but then again, i've only been here 2 weeks. come back to me in 3 months.

i sorta celebrated Thanksgiving here it's a holiday celebration somewhat similar to our CNY reunion dinner. all the children will come home and have dinner with the family. they also say it's the time where they get to eat all they want. pfft. back home in malaysia, we eat all we want all day everyday!

tis the season to be jolly too! the Thanksgiving SALE! it starts a midnight and they have crazy deals. there was a literally a queue in front of Coach. and certain shops like Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger had a 50% storewide sale. can you say OMG?

needless to say, i had to control myself.

this is probably the part you people are most looking forward to. some photos to whet your appetite!



the ladies in Prime Outlet. this isn't the Thanksgiving Sale. we went there on our first week there when we had a day off. lotsa branded outlet shops.

daylight turns to dark. such a pretty sky. it gets dark around 5pm. by 6pm it looks like its 9pm. i get sleepy by that time. but now, i've pretty much gotten used to it. now i'm back to my regular sleeping pattern =)


the ladies in the Trolley. we take this to work everyday. this is us on our way to Prime.


that's me in my living room. okay laa. not my living room. this is the clubhouse. it's really pretty. there's a fake fireplace!



this is the main area. damn nice right? we also have a movie theater, a basketball court, a gym and a pool. it's a pretty place.


more coming soon =)
