Still a long way from home

While i was on my way to work earlier this morning i came across a road sign that was pointing to a direction of a particular road. Now i really wasn't paying attention to anything, but at a glance i could have sworn the name of the road is 'Similanjau'...of course that made me go like WTF!!!??? and proceeded to double check on the sign before i passed it, and so i was wrong and instead the name of the road is 'Similajau'. Well pretty close i would say but it would be a good laugh though, can you imagine if someone asked where you were...it'll probably be like:

Someone: Oitz, where are you?
Me: I'm going to similanjau
Someone: .....

Of course there are other strange an unusual things over here la, but its really far and in between so i'm not really gonna talk bout that. Well its not really strange if you are from here in the first place, but i'm really new here and i haven't been here in my entire life so seeing that how this is my first time here, i am really a like a foreigner. After all they speak mostly in mandarin which i can hardly understand a damn word...besides that they speak some language that i am totally unaware of so i think i really am a foreigner here. Being away for so long i kinda miss home somewhat...most likely cause i'm in unfamiliar territory and there really isn't much to do here plus my friends aren't really around. Unfortunately though i have to stay here a little longer then expected, fuck!!! Oh well its all part of the learning that i have to do...must yan!!!
