SY had gone to a fish spa a while back when Ben and Adeline were in town in KL.

I had been meaning to go myself but just haven't been able to find the time or people to go with!

Hang on, fish spa you ask? Yup, these places are mushrooming all over in Asia it seems. Basically you go to these places to get your (normally) feet, or if you're up for it, whole body cleaned up by the fishes. You dip yourself in the water and the feet will eat off your skin, removing the dead and unwanted skin leaving you nice and shiny fresh skin.

At least, that's what they say. The fishes are known as "Dr. Fish" and their sizes can be from an inch up until around 4 inches!

The process is simple. Wash your feet, grab a towel and head over to a spot you like/available and dip your feet/self in.

Easy!

Anyways here's SY with her feet dipped in the water.

Yesterday was finally the day obviously a lot of Malaysians have been waiting for. The official voting day had finally come. I flew back from KL early in the morning just to join the crowd - to cast my vote for what was hopefully a better change for our beloved country that we have all grown up in.

Now, to be honest, I had no idea who was actually standing in my area - who it was didn't really matter, as I was already confident which party I would be voting for.

After a hearty breakfast, I went along with my parents to our designated polling station to cast our votes.

At the entrance to the school we were of course greeted by volunteers and workers from the Election Commission, which directed us to the classrooms to cast our votes.

I proceeded to the classroom that my name had corresponded to in their system. The policeman on duty there obviously didn't like having his picture taken. I was really glad he allowed me to take pictures anyway so I wasn't really complaining.
