Smelly, green and pointy.

It’s that time of the year again when you start to see plenty of green pointy substances being sold at the road sides. It is that substance that makes the Angmos (the Whites) say in their deep accent “What is that smell?”.


Just the thought of it causes us Asians to salivate in a Pavlovian fashion. Just the smell of it causes us to have a tingling sensation in our taste buds. And just the sight of it causes us to shout “Oh! Durians.”


Yup durians. It’s here again. The fruit that stinks to high heavens that tastes really good. It’s the only fruit that can draw people from afar to crowd around just to get their hands on a piece of the fruit the moment it is opened.

King of the fruits.


Two weeks ago, before the full arrival of durians, my cousin from the UK had to have some durians before she left. It’s weird that she likes durians, since she is half Chinese half British but I guess the Asian genes in her is dominant. We did manage to find some before she left. But it was the most expensive durian I have ever paid-RM10 for a durian.


Today just before my visit to the dentist my neighbor gave us a load of durians. I was so tempted to eat some before leaving but I managed to resist temptation. Just imagine having durian breath during the dentist visit.

After exams

Here is some updates on what we did after the exams.

We went to KLCC for lunch and we got Poh Hian a present.

We then walked all the way from KLCC to Star Hill just to show Su Ann a nice toilet.

I did take some random pictures on our way. But don't worry there are no pictures of toilets xD.

Next Chapter.

Finally! The exams are finally over. Time to take a break and Relax... or maybe not.
This is the time of my life where a chapter ends and a new one begins. This is the next step, level, stage, etc.
I can't predict for sure if my life is going to be any easier or harder. But all I know is that life never gets easier. Something always seems to get in the way- making life hard. Before my cousin left to the UK, she left us a lovely note. My uncle sign it too.

" Dear Quincy & Joey!!

Wishing you all the best for the
next chapter in your life.
I hope that you will make the most of it
and learn exciting things!
Just be open minded & be good too :)
- Keep in Touch!!

Laura + Uncle Harry"

Well I hope to make the most of this new chapter in life, so I got to keep working hard.
