Apartment Move In

We have moved into our apartment but still waiting for shipment to be delivered, I am happy with my apartment . Met some singaporeans , and have gathering dinner once a week , i also met few others ladies who are non singaporeans , Mrs Park , of course is Korean who lives here 30 years  ,owns my favorite restaurant SURA ,Mrs Kim who is 62 yrs old just arrived 6 mths ago , husband has been here 10 yrs ago , she is now my facial lady , fantistic skill , not that my face is very much better , but her massage on neck , upper back is the best i have ever experienced , most importantly she is clean , and she has been in this line since she was 25 years old , we talk to each other like 'kimchi talk to curry' or 'chicken to duck' , our conversation is full of words like 'is ok ' 'thank you' 'no problem' in korean ,but some how we manage to understand each other , i am good in my own sign language .

Through my KL neighbour jill , I met up with an interesting couple from Australia, Jon n Jo ,who just arrived from Lahore , saying Dhaka is so much better compare to pakistan , they are here to develope cow farm for meat supply in Bangladesh , they have grown up children in they 30's , living in BJ , guess where , Riveria !!!!! They know my very close Japanese friends yukiko n araki in Lahore , the world is so very small .

To me Dhaka is OK , i came with 0 expectation , now is + 1 , improving huh . Bangladesh wakes up all my senses , it is so different from what i am used to , it makes my mind thinks and works ...Bangladesh in short is BD , to me it is 'Beautiful people Dirty places ', 'Big Drama ' country , ' Bargain and Discount ' in whatever you encounter , 'Black and Dark' ..... i told the my new bangali friends , they thought is funny but did not disagree , or dare not .

Daily life in Dhaka is a 'F' , it  fustrates me, makes me furious at times , at the end i sat down and think about it , is funny too , because i have to laugh at it . My goal in life is to see , feel and experience more .

I have not cried yet , maybe when i leave .
