FIrst trip to Supermarket Alone & other things

This past weekend was rather lowkey....I rested to adjust to the new timezone which I think I am finally on!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!! Also went to the mall to buy a couple things to set up in my apartment....nothing too interesting there....I also bought some orchids, unpacked everything I have so far, set up the router and the Wii....I am all set!!!!!!!! I am ready for visitors!!!!!!!!

Tonight after work I went to the supermarket by myself close to my apartment. It was fun....the supermarket is soooooo stimulating since everything is new (from the brands, the flavors or fragrances, to the packaging, etc....). Of course when you are in there alone everyone just stares at you and I can only imagine what they are thinking....probably the biggest one is "What is that girl doing here?" The little children are soooo shy with me as they love to stare and then if I smile at them they hide themselves...it is quite cute! Everyone is still very nice and welcoming....I have learned a few local words already and hope to pick up some more real soon!

I am looking forward to my travels this week (as long as I get my Kittas - resident permit that will allow me to come and go from the country)...should get it tomorrow (fingers crossed)!!!!!!!

It is nice and interesting to hear the mosques all the time...had dinner next to the pool last night and it was very loud with all the surrounding mosques calling at the same time....I find this really beautiful to hear!!!!!!!

Well, I promised some pics, but I have not been soooo successful at this (I have taken a couple, but have been very busy to post)....I promise they will show up on facebook really soon!!!!!!!!!

Till next time...."Selamat Malam"..."Good Night".
