There aren’t too many posts at the moment, but the action is just getting started.

KL Tigers

Here I am in an ice hockey game in early December. I have no idea why they chose to put this picture in the paper. I'd like to say that I ripped a shot while being tripped by the stick at the bottom left of the picture. Yeah, that's what happened.

Here's the article:

Read the Last Sentence

http://streets.nst.com.my/Current_News/Streets/Wednesday/Stories/20091028091632/Article/index_html

This article is about the rat and cockroach problem at the restaurant I mentioned a few blog posts back. It's not exactly breaking news to me. I found the last sentence of the article to be quite interesting though.

"Also living in the area are foreigners who are unconcerned about hygiene. We need to increase our health awareness programmes," he said.

Was it really necessary to a) say something like this and b) print it in a newspaper?

Bangkok Airport and Pattaya

We arrived at the airport in Bangkok at about 10:30 pm and it was too late to get the last bus to Pattaya. We decided to just party at the airport and catch the 7:00 am bus. It was pretty fun:)

Here I am getting fitted for a suit in Pattaya. The suits I bought will surely appear in future posts.

Hard Rock Cafe Pattaya

I want one of these.

I'd also like one of these.

We spent four days in Pattaya, but only really spent one day at the beach. We went to Jomtien, but it was seriously dirty and full of jellyfish.

We planned on spending the whole holiday in Pattaya, but we ended up leaving after four days.  Pattaya is really fun if you're planning on partying day and night, but we just didn't have it in us this time.

Team Lion's Winning Performance

This is the first scene of our skit. We are all best friends visiting Cowboy Town in Melaka and having the time of our lives. At the end of this scene our friend starts coughing. Little did we know, she would die six months later.

In this scene, our best friend has just died after fighting an illness for six months. I'm trying to cheer up my other friend. You can see the corpse in the background.

Here is team Lion singing "Lean on Me". Actually, I'm just pretending to sing. I volunteered to do some acting in order to get out of singing, but I ended up having to do both. On a positive note, our friend came back from the dead to help us sing.

Melaka August 7th-9th

Every year Taylor's sends its employees on a free team building trip. This year I chose historic Melaka. I can't believe I've been in Malaysia for three years and this is my first trip there.

This is team Lion. We finished second in athletics and won the team performance.

Cowboy Town in A'famosa

Thursday Evening in Subang

We decided that a trip to the driving range was in order.

This is our favorite restaurant. Actually, it's not our favorite, but we spend a lot of time there. The beer is reasonably priced and if you sit in those red chairs and look towards the trees, it kind of feels like you're at the beach. Ghetto fab!

This is one of the numerous DVD shops in Subang Jaya.  We stopped here to take care of some business on our way to the driving range.

You won't believe it, but I actually cured the infamous "St.Germain Slice" on this trip to the driving range.
