Tomorrow is Malaysia Day so we’re off work, but if I can get a taxi I’m going in anyway. Lots to do. Anyway, a group of us went out to a really fun bar tonight with free salty snacks, pool, and darts. Also some of the cheapest beer we’ve seen. It’s still bad beer, but what can you do?
Anyway, the Big Moment is that I sang karaoke for the first time! I was just singing along to “Hallelujah”, a long-standing favorite, and my boss shoved a mic at me and that was that. Not a bad way to spend a Monday night.
Today has been a very quiet day to make up for a very busy day yesterday, so I just have one photo for you. This is a panoramic shot (sorry about the fisheye effect) from a balcony on the sixth floor of the hotel.
That’s about it for the part of town we’re in. I’m definitely looking forward to living somewhere else, hopefully soon.
Tonight Mitch and I ventured into the original town of Seremban, known as Old Seremban, Old Town, or sometimes just Seremban. It gets a little confusing when you consider that there’s also Seremban 2 and the outskirts of both towns, all of which are known as either Seremban or S2. Right now, we’re living in one of the Old Seremban outskirts (called Seremban) and school is close to Seremban 2, though still within Seremban city limits. Go figure.
We wandered around for a while before finding somewhere to eat. Here are some photos I took along the way.
