Malaysia – Day 39

On the way home from work I couldn’t believe my eyes. The bus was driving through a neighborhood that I had never seen before. After having almost taken the wrong bus a few days ago, how could I have not noticed that this was not the number 10?

Without panicking too much, I asked the person behind me where this bus was going. She asked where I was going and I explained that I was on the wrong bus, but I was going to Kota Raya. She said that yes, this was the right bus but it was taking a different route because traffic was bad on the main road.

A bus that can just veer off the main route whenever it pleases – just to avoid traffic? It’s almost as good as a taxi!

Malaysia – Day 38

Yesterday after work Jon took me to do some voice over work for the corporate video we shot last weekend. It ended up taking about 5 hours (including the time we spent eating dinner) but despite the fact that it took a long time I had a pretty good time doing it anyway.

We ended up having to redo the whole thing because of some background noise that was recorded. Afterwards I just crashed at Jon’s place because it was pretty late and he needed to get some work done at GXM. I’m amazed at how he is able to focus so much time and energy and so many long nights in order to make sure he gets everything done. I guess there’s a reason why GXM has such a good reputation.

In other news at GXM, I’m currently working on a flash based game that hopefully will be finished before my last day on Friday. Not much time so I’d better get back to it.
