I'M BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK

well, malaysia was a hell of a lot of fun. although i lost everything i've gained in the past 3 years, i had fun nonetheless. as you can see the plane ride was very uncomfortable...

ticket prices went up, seats got smaller, and the service on the plane was shit... i guess that's life... the only form of entertainment you have on that plane is sleep. by the way, it was gulf air... shittiest airline in the universe.

when we got there after the 8 hour flight... i realized that i either grow a couple of inches taller, or they lowered the car roofs a couple of inches. cuz everytime we hit a pothole my head would smash on the roof of the cab... luckily, we took the expensive cab to the hotel (50 ringits for a 45 minute trip... i love expensive down there :))

we arrived in Penang at around 5:30 pm... it was nice... The scenery there is wonderful... everything is so damn green!!! we went to the hotel room, Traders, and chilled for a bit, then we decided to get some dinner and hit the sack.
next day, we decided we wanted to go to penang hill... beautiful place... except for the damn indians there... i don't mean to be racist... but holy fuck are they rude and obnoxious!! we were in a small cart that takes you up to the hill, and there was a huge indian family with us on the cart. the lady was yelling on her cell phone as loud as she could and it was so goddamn annoying... her 3 kids were running around and bumping into me and maryam all the time, the two other women were yapping as loud as they could at a pitch high enough it would make a dog roll over and die... and then finally... the woman on the phone fucking farted in the cart... i have it all on tape if you don't believe me... but that was some obnoxious shit... the view there was wonderful, you can see all of penang from up there... there were stands selling food and stuff (don't eat there... if you smell it you'd know why)... and there was this little henna tattoo parlor... my wife wanted to get one and she told me that she wouldn't get one done til i got one... sooo







We went back down and decided to go to the fruit farm. I had imagined that this place would be heaven... fruits and plants everywhere... cool weather... little monkies running around.... well, too bad it wasn't...where there are fruits, there are flies... it was as hot as fuck down there and the flies were merciless... still it was fun... they showed us coconut trees, pineapple, dragonfruit, dorian, and papaya.... this is the papaya plant



this is hamad telling the guy to pick some papaya for him or else someone will get hurt...




after the tour, they took us to their "fruit shop", where you get to eat fruits, and drink juice... FOR FREEEEEE!!!!!! there was a little obstacle in our path... but i think it was dead...



we ate till we puked... or actually i ate til i puked... then we headed to the botanical garden... which had nothing botanical about it... it only had grass and monkies... remembering the monkey that stole my maryam's ice cream last year, i decided to chase a baby monkey and kill it. too bad those damn monkies are fast...



i then decided to conquer the botanical gardens in the name of the mohawis family




we got bored quickly and headed back to the hotel... we passed by a temple on the way... boring as shit... bald people running around... if i wanted to see that i'd go to my parents house (BADABING!!!)...

then, it was shopping time... there's this queensbay mall, huge place... cool as shit... and it actually has edible food!!! we went there about 15 million times before we left for KL... oh oh, and there's this small mall right behind the hotel, it has a pizza hut... dirties place i've ever seen in my life... cockroaches running on the floor, tables haven't been cleaned for decades... so i had to eat there... the food took about 2 hours to prepare... they were cooking the pizzas with lighters or something... and they obviously have a problem with diet sodas...

anyway, you can see everything penang has to offer in about 3 days... so, a week there was too much. we then headed to Kuala Lumpur... i love that place... we stayed at the sunway lagoon resort for 2 nights... the hotel was fucking awesome... the room looked amazing... but it had the most uncomfortable bed i've ever slept in... the thing broke my back and neck... but the couch was nice



the bed wasn't




next day we woke up early cuz they told us the sunway lagoon theme park opened at 8 am... turns out it opens at 11 am... and it really didn't open til 12 noon... so that sucked... but that place is great... it's like 4 theme parks in one... there's the water park



I was just parading my fat ass around there... there were actually people who were in shape over there... i was pretty surprised... but there were only like 3 people in shape... the rest of the population was just.... well, let's say i was considered in shape and look at my fat ass!!




then there's the Amusement park.... it had some amazing rides down there... the ship thingy that flipped, some rollercoasters... a cave with some dude




AND THEY HAD PINEAPPLE JUICE!!!!!!!!!!!! you know how happy pineapple juice makes me
:)




then we went to the little petting zoo they had... an albino monkey that tried to steal maryam's glasses.. we had a little arguement




then i decided to eat the monkey




we then went to the extreme park... everything was closed that day except for the SLINGSHOT!!!!! fucking amazing ride!!! they clamp you down in this little ball, and they slingshoot you up in the air at a force of 3 Gs... you'd know what a heart attack feels like... i wept like a little girl... but it was the funnest thing i've ever done... expensive, but fun... i wish i had pictures, i only have a video of the thing on dvd (they had a little camera in front of your face on the ride)... that was the first time i hear my wife yell obsanities outloud..

then we went back to the hotel (2 minute walk), chilled a bit, then went to the pyramid mall (another 2 minute walk form the hotel)... then we discovered "Tony Roma's"... first time i've ever eaten in that place... i love it.. i just love it... we loved it so much we ate at that place 3 times in 36 hours... they had very very healthy and nutritious dishes




right outside the hotel there are some stupid statues... i don't know if they realize it or not... but this one looks like a tiger wanting to rape a deer...




AND LOOOOK!!!! ELEPHANT PENIS!!!!




anyway... we then went to Kuala lumpur city center, which was basically 5 days of shopping... and then we went back to good old saudi arabia... where everything sucks... and i mean everything...

i'm back on my diet right now.. which sucks... and i lost about 15 lbs on this damn trip... now it's back to good old eating, training, and complaining...
