Pronounced Muh-lay-see-yuh (Malaysia)...

Random:

While eating lunch at a Malaysian restaurant I heard "Too Little, Too Late" by Jojo blasting from 1 of 2 muslim girls cell phone, only to be followed by "Because of You" by Kelly Clarkson while enjoying my curry naan and freshly squeezed apple juice that tasted like someone took a straw and jabbed it right into an apple. Surreal. Truth be told, I wasn't too surprised about the music - globalization - however, I just didn't have my external harddrive to ask if I could sync the music - let alone, I don't speak Malay. But when has language ever been a barrier?



ps - Penang is sssssoooo chill! Listening to "Kamasutra" by Yogi B. Pretty dope artist from India. Get into it.

Ciao,
A
