flawed work of art.

wow, has it been a whirlwind of a december or what! here's a brief update:

I spent a little less than a week in South Africa, which is a lot like how I expected it to be. contrary to popular belief, it isn't a dilapidated country where 5 families sleep in the same house with each husband possessing 5 wives each.

first of all, their currency is not too far off from the Ringgit. 1 South African Rand = 1 Malaysian Ringgit. so, you'll probably have a picture of their economic status from there.

oh yes, the inhabitants aren't ALL black. every 10 black guys = one white guy. so, yes, they are the majority, but a lot of the residents are coloured, which means neither pure Black or pure White.

after I touched down from SA, I met up with bako, who spent most of his next 48 hours at my place, which I definitely appreciated, seeing as I haven't seen him for 5 months. time sure flies.

not to mention that I spent a lot of my own waking hours with my girls, talking, shopping, playing Wii, laughing, and in my case - hiccuping. *shakes head* something is seriously wrong with me.

and yes, I've started working again, but hopefully not for long, since I'm jet-setting to Egypt with my parents, sis and joel on new year's and only coming back a little bit over a week later.

till then, here's a random photo I took at our first tourist destination in SA to whet your appetite. :)
