That title reflects the noise Malay people seem to make when confused, which I am right now so it seems appropriate.It's been ages since I've updated this, hopefully there is no one reading this as their only contact with me or worry may be setting in!
A hell of a lot has happened since last time I blogged, mainly all linked to WINTER RETURNING! It was immense when she turned up, she had been emailing me for a while planning to come back and keep it a secret from Liam. She turned up and I smuggled her down one of the passages to the bathrooms and sneaked her on to the sofa whilst Liam was in reception. The look on his face was brilliant, shock, confusion, more shock, bafflement... This was all placated by a litre of Jack Daniels that Winter had bought in duty free on her way here!
Hallowe'en happened, we got steaming drunk and were shouting at backpackers to get in their costumes, put a load of death metal on in the bar, Winter did some tarot reading, 'yeah she's gay and doesn't know it yet...' and I ended up passing out on a table in the Highlander and having my phone confiscated by Liam. I have very little recollection of this night because once again Morgan Stanley was out to play but there are some immense pictures on Facebook if you're privileged enough to be my friend.
Had an interesting experience in a Malaysian hospital. Winter turned up with jungle rot courtesy of an incident on the Thai-Cambodia border (this is the interesting way to say she got some cuts and waded through shit and flood water for a month) and they didn't improve after a week so we went to hospital and it was pretty darn goose. She got IV antibiotics and had a load of shit scraped out of her foot which knocked me slightly sick. RM15 for a load of stuff and drugs, Malay healthcare is pretty awesome.
A few days ago Dizzie and Bex turned up and they were the first cool people to get here since Jess left. They had a chilled out attitude and poi! Dizzie had some wicks for his fire twirling on chains and only a few days earlier Winter had started teaching Liam how to twirl a staff. Spare wicks attached to a staff, petrol bought and we had a pretty cool couple of days playing with fire. It did make me question who would ever consider us responsible adults, especially when Liam had a go with the chains and cracked himself in the nuts and was rolling around in a pile of sand for a good while!
Er, I'm sure a lot more has happened... My Malay is coming on well, a few people in town have said I look like I've lost weight, local business rivalries are still getting in the way of certain things I wish I could be doing, I went for a play in a derelict building site and was inspired to take pictures for the first time in a long time, Winter has put my dermal anchor back in, I have an infection in three of my ear piercings after I stitched them.
Well I'm going to try and keep this updated more, Winter leaves soon so I may be less distracted!
