just a quick one.
hey folks. a quick update from Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia!

Australia was a lot of fun, the weather was great and i did a whole lot of stuff. i saw the Opera house, and climbed the Harbor Bridge. i went to an aquarium and a zoo (and a wildlife center). i went to the blue mountains, and i went to the beach. twice. i also went up Sydney Tower. i also hung out with some awesome people too, so its been great fun.

From Australia i headed to singapore. Singapore is a nice city, very clean and easy to get around. not quite as beautiful or as friendly as Sydney, but it turned out to be ok. i went to the Singapore Flyer, which is a huge ferris wheel. i also went to an island called Sentosa Island, which has a beach and lotsa cool stuff to do. i rode a Luge, which is kind of a cross between a toboggan and a go-kart, and i also rode on a Segway!(sp?) which is a really weird sensation.

i got the train from singapore to Kuala Lumpur, which is where i am now. KL is an ok city, but there isnt a whole lot to do. The Hostel im staying in is pretty nice though, and i've met some really cool people there, fellow travellers like myself who have given me some good advice.
Today i went to the Petronas Towers, which are two of the tallest buildings in the world (not quite THE tallest though...) i went on the skybridge, which connects to the two towers. and tomorrow i might go up KL tower, which is higher then the sky bridge, but not as tall as the Petronas Towers themselves. it costs money to do though, whereas the Skybridge was free.

as you may have realised by now...i go up stuff a lot.

I've also seen the movies "9" and finally got to see "Up" recently too. "9" was ok, nothing really special. "Up" was fantastic, and some parts were really sad!

overall im doing pretty well, and im enjoying the trip. to be honest, i've been going through bad patches where im worrying about what im doing, and getting very anxious about my ability to do this. i dont know why, but it feels like im doing this trip all wrong, that i should be enjoying it more then i am.

it could be going a WHOLE lot worse though. i guess its because im on my own here in SE asia. not to worry! im sure there are many adventures awaiting me yet! and as i said, on the whole, its been fun. so far! ha ha!

hope everyone is doing well as we accelerate into the Fall.


till next time!

P.S: the town i was staying in in Australia was called "Manly". i thought that was an awesome name. "im getting on the Manly ferry!" "welcome to the Manly post office!" "im gonna hang out at Manly Beach" ...it sounded like a very masculine place. ha ha!
