"kaki tukar!" (change leg)
"tukar baju!" (change clothes)
"tukar muka!" (change face... uncle azman say one! *lol*)

was asking uncles some malay terms during climbing session. tukar tukar tukar.. alamak sia... took me some time to remember it's tukar not takur... n i can't remember clothes = pakaian!! ah yoh... never use bahasa indonesia for a few months my vocab starts to trickle away...best... yeah! now got li ping to converse with me!! and li yu! hohoho.... hmm.. thinking of converting basic indo to malay.. realised some stuff are different... then i don't understand... and when people speak rapidly... i'm a goner... with a huge "huh...." floating on top of my head...

still remember the time when i went to berkelah waterfalls..stress when strangers spoke to me in malay and tried to seek confirmation that i'm not a malay.. now i think i know a liiiiittle bit.. at least i think i can ask for directions.... but.... to those who are thinking of going m'sia with me... don't bank on me hor..... hmmm.. better check when is yu fan coming back!

and for those who dun understand anything at all... perhaps u can start off by first learning this sentence.. useful for backpackers... "tandas di mana?" (where is the toilet?). but then again... it may be unnecessary... since trekkers would most likely possess the following mentality that,

the world is your toilet. (okie i can hear some ppl going: *eeeeewwwww*....)
