in What I Got In The Mail: Envelope 1 & 2 on quaintly
Hi PinkPau!
Good to see and hear you;re doing good in Columbia. Aiya... i just came back from vietnam and read your blog where you actually posted your college's address. Would've been great to send you a postcard of Halong Bay. Nice place!
But no no... sending you those only makes you miss Asia even more. Ok, ill look my stack of pstcards from California/Grand Canyon, then send it to you using Malaysian stamp. LOL.
NIce campus pics you have there. Blue sky and everything nice!

in What It Means To Be Malaysian on quaintly
Hello! good to hear you;re doing great in NYC and happy merdeka to you from the other side of the world! haha...
Well, it is just sad to know how we're brought up and not able to speak our mind. Not only in school, but i totally feel it too even inworking life. My company encourages us to challenge our managers and bring out new ideas and it is people like me who often talk too much and challenge the managers. You can see some of them actually dont like it and they kinda, "branded" me. Though most of the expats and some managers who graduated overseas find no problem with that, but at the end of the day, i guess, this culture is not 100% adapted in Malaysian or should i say ,Asian culture yet.
Asian culture teach us to be polite and listen to the elders. And not, when our parents ask us to do something, we will challenge/fight back twice what they say, which often happen with kids nowadays. So i think its not that bad if we dont speak up most of the time. We talk and challenge when the time is right and any given platform (debate). I know you're a smart and articulate person, so dont get intimidated by them. Explain to them our values and culture. Dat doesnt make you stupid or weird, dat gives you more character as a person.

All the best PinkPau!
I know ur gonna miss Malaysia.. the weather, the people, family and friends... but trust me, ur gonna have a blast in the States. 4 years might sound a hell of a long time, but time flies when ur enjoying yourself. New York city is definately the capital of the world. So many things to see and explore. See you soon at the other side of the world!!!!
Speak soon

HI Su-Ann!
Been a reader of your blog a few months back and im totally hooked to it. Fund it realy fun to read. AFter a streesful day, i just wanna check out blogs and have a light read of what other blogger had to say.
Yes, blogs can be very informative at times but it can be very dangerous at times also when you touches on personal/.sensitive issues. You wouldn know whos reading it and some can post up reaaly nasty comment.
Anyhow, good to know ur going to Columbia Uni and hopefully imm planning to go NYC end of the year, we can meet up. Its good to meet up high profle blogger in a foreign land. ha ha...
Cheers.
