Happy 63rd birthday to my home country, Malaysia! I do feel proud of being a Malaysian. I love many aspects of the country but I sincerely felt that there are huge room of improvement and that the nation is lagging behind in various areas. I do wish for the best to my beloved country. It is after all my place of birth and the country where I have lived for over 25 years (I have been staying more at oversea recently due to my postgraduate study in the past in Australia and my current job in Singapore).

My family, relatives and friends got to enjoy the long National Day weekend vacationing at Genting or even on another state. For people in Singapore like me, we have no other state to travel to and we are stuck in this small island until more lifting of border restrictions (hopefully soon so that at least I can travel to JB or back to home in KL for short leave). Staying in this island for more than 2 years, I do felt the desire of Singaporeans to get out of here once in a while for a breath of fresh air or for a real vacation/getaway.
I spent the past week browsing for new home and went for several house viewing in the past weekend. I decided to move to a new place for a new environment and to get a house that is closer to MRT. I am also getting tired of how unfriendly my current landlord is and I’m now looking for room without any owner staying together that will certainly give me more freedom and privacy. After several thoughts and multiple house viewing, I have finally decided on one place which is actually not far from where I’m currently staying. I will be moving to new place mid of next month!
Now looking at all the stuff I have in my current room, it’s really true that moving out is not easy. I guess I have to make multiple trips back and forth to transfer all my stuff to the new place. Packing…and then unpacking…for a couple of times. But that is fine. I would be very much willing to do that as I would be moving to a much better place (the new place is a much bigger room in a condo that has facilities like pool and gym, and the condo is quite near to the MRT which is good!).
That’s it for my update today. It’s already the last day of the month! There will be a lot of good things coming in for September (moving in to new place as mentioned earlier, my blog’s 12th anniversary, going to visit Night Safari mid of next month too, etc). Can’t wait for them all! Have a great month ahead, everyone!
