Malaysia week and spring break.....

Malaysia week has been one of the best weeks of my life. Malaysia week is full of adventure , surprises, and excitement. I can not wait till next year.

This has been my first Malaysia week. I went to Pulau Perhentian Kecil. We were the first bus to leave ( At 4:00 in the morning!) as our bus ride was 8-9 hours , and we had a 40 min boat ride. It was nice to get out the busy , noisy electronic city and Enjoy the fresh air , and cool ocean breeze. Now , to get on the exciting and challenging bits of our trip.... First of all henna. Henna is an Indian Tatoo, which can last for about a month. Henna has no chemicals , and is made out of Vegtaable oil. But even though we were suppose to use it for our body.... we did some of our hair!!! It was a lot of fun, now me and Bryna ( My friend who was also on our Malaysia week sight ) both have red/orange stripes in our hair! Now the hiking..... it was horrible! We trecked in the rainforst for 3 hours straight! We first Kayaked to Besar ( The island next to us) and then we walked halfway across the island.... and then we trecked up a mountain in the rainforst... for no reason! For 3 hours! IT was soooo anoying!!!

Now for spring break.... my family and I were supposed to go to Australia; But then 3 weeks ago, my father got a triple bypass. ( 3 veins in his heat got smaller ) So my father had to go for a heart operation. Now he can not travel for 3 months. So for this spring break , I need to stay here in Kl. But I am happy , as I would rather have a healthy father than a Sick one!

Talk to you soon...

About Malaysia, Kl. Hello America

Hello Tennessee!

I'm Sarah, and I am going to tell you about KL (Kuala Lumpur)

I am from ISKL ( The international school of Kuala Lumpur) ISKL is a international , there are ton of different nationalities , like :
*Malaysian
*Chinese
*Indian
*Korean
*U.S.A
*European..... there is more than 55 different nationalities! ISKL has been open for about 45 years.

To me , ISKL is the best School because of something called 'Malaysia week.' In Malaysia week you go away for 5 days, and you earthier do to 'Coastal' or 'Rainforest' sight. It is the experience of a lifetime!

Some of Kuala Lumpurs attractions: ( You can look for these on the internet)

*Cosmos World theme park

*KlCC ( See below)

* The Pavillion ( Shopping center)

*The twin towers ( See below)

* And Negara Zoo

Kuala Lumpur is a community of mostly Chinese, Indian and Malay (Malaysian) Kuala Lumpur is famous for its 'twin towers', which used to be the tallest towers in the world ( Now they are the second or third) The sky bridge is on the 43-42 floor. Below the twin towers there is a Shopping 'mall' called KLCC ( Kuala Lumpur City Center.) There is also a HUGE playground and 'swimming pool.' These are usually used by locals ( Malaysians.)

Kuala Lumpur is a friendly , caring, nationality full place. I have loved living here in Kuala Lumpur, for the last 4 years. Sure at first it might be a bit strange or a bit scary, But after a while; you start to feel welcome.

I hope that you can come and Visit Kl sometime!
