I choose you! lazy fucker!

So let me tell you about this place called Kuala Lumpur (the cool kids are callin it KL). It's by far the most western city I've seen so far. Let me explain:

-clean
-cars outnumber motos
-the sidewalk is for walking
-you aren't solicited weed (or fake weed) constantly
-you cross the street at crosswalks, when the light tells you to
-reliable, fast public transportation

The list goes on but I'll stop. All of that said, it's not the most interesting city. There isn't really much to do here. Beer is as expensive as home (which in my mind is entirely too much, I can never pay full price for a beer again). If you are caught with drugs you get mandatory jail time or caning. Like with a bamboo cane! Wowzers!

Today I stumbled upon the largest shopping mall I have ever experienced. I went inside because it started raining and as I looked up I got dizzy. I really almost fell backwards just trying to count how many floors there were. Escalators seem ineffective for that number of floors and I wouldn't be surprised to see teleporters implemented in the near future. Each one of these floors was at least twice the size of the modest national museum that I had explored earlier in the day. You could set up a bungy jump inside that thing. I bet it would go over well because you could order cinnabuns or fruit shakes on the way down, perhaps buy some sneakers or a dvd player. I left pretty quickly because I didn't want to get too far from the entrance, for fear that I would be forever trapped in the labryinthian halls.

There is a dude in my dorm room who is always playing game boy. Everytime I pass there he is playin away. Now I'm not saying there is anything wrong with that, those of you who know me well know that I like a good videogame and can spend lots of time with the shit. But come on, you're in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and you can't get outta bed because you're playin pokemon! That shit hasn't been cool since 6th grade my friend (at which time is was very cool). My only suggestion is maybe talk to another human. there are tons around, some of them are even pretty interesting. anyway, i'm done.
