I miss roti canai
I miss nasi lemak
I miss teh o ais limau
I miss nasi goreng kampung
I miss keropok lekor zomg zomg keropok lekor *drools*
I miss curry laksa
I miss prawn laksa
I miss assam laksa...
...I miss all kinds of laksa
And I miss KLCC and The Curve
I miss the Loft
I miss both the Coffee Bean and Starbucks in Taipan
I miss playing pool in ss15
I miss all that food in Asia Cafe
I miss Sunway Pyramid and its cheap cheap piercings
I miss One Utama
I miss walking around KL, especially late at night spending half an hour trying to catch a taxi
I miss mamak culture
I miss Asian Heritage Row, even though its so 5-minutes ago and no one goes there anymore and really, who cares?
I MISS SHISHAS BEING EVERYWHERE
I miss buying avocados at the vege shop next to Val's pharmacy for a stupid expensive price because in Malaysia, avocados are practically unheard of
I miss going past my old schools and wondering what happens there now
I miss watching movies at Sunway Pyramid at midnight
I miss Subang Parade, even though that place is like 2353647 years old, I miss the MPH there and buying every single aeiou brand wrapping paper because they're soooo pretty and having so many rolls that we have to make cupboard space
I miss my old bed I've had since I was 9
I miss my old bathroom with the raised ground in front of the sink cos when I was a kid I wasn't tall enough to reach
I miss lying on the sofa in my living room with the windows and sliding doors open
I miss playing badminton in our garden
I miss our maid's cooking
I miss my mum's cooking
I don't miss my dad's cooking
I miss Vietnamese rolls on Saturday afternoons
I miss family.
But I know that, after a maximum of 3 months there, I'll start to hate it, I'll hate the traffic, I'll hate the humidity, I'll hate how the humidity gives me pimples, I'll hate the shitty broadband, I'll hate the rude people, I'll hate the mysterious KTM trains that only show up once every 3 years, I'll hate how everyone there is thin and it pressures you into losing weight, I'll hate the kiasu attitude, I'll hate the stupid stupid politicians,
and I'll want to leave again.

3 let it rip.:
