Where ever I am rain seems to reign. Australia, Malaysia, Lanka - it's all a big dripping slush.
*Sigh
It does not help that leaky roofs seem to follow me around the globe. The residential advisor dude called me from Melbourne to kindly inform me that my room's been sort of flooded due to a leak in the roof. This was followed by some frantic skyping and FBing to my friends who sweetly obliged my requests to move 'non-rain proof' stuff out of my room and sort it all out. To quote one of them 'The therapeutic aroma in ur room currently is awesome' - due to the wet carpet I'm sure.
Anyway the important thing is, I am back :D for a little vacation.
It doesn't seem that I've been away for 10 months... Strange...
I was in transit at Singapore this time - and have to say the rate they charge for international calls is absolute bloody murder! Since my phone was stupid and did not have roaming (!?) had to use my credit card to call home, and upon return found out that I was charged around $20 for a call that hardly lasted 1 minute. Seriously. That's like my monthly phone bill!
Whatever her other faults might be, no other cuisine (IMHO) can top Lanka's spicy food... Of course I might be a bit biased here :D, but after the tasteless fish , rubbery frozen jackfruit and sticky canned mangoes of OZ, well lets just say I have serious doubts of being able to fit into certain items in my wardrobe after another month here!
