Apart from the usual settling down experience, which is quite mild for me (all thanks to God for placing me in UNSW with lots of relatives) there's something I'm starting to miss....
...which is talking with the Malaysian slang.
the slang here has a low tone (in my option at least) as oppose to the more straightforward (prob due to the bahasa baku influenced) "say it as it is spelled" Malaysian english pronounciation.
And causes a dilema; to talk the normal Malaysian way....and sometimes get asked to repeat because they can't get what I'm saying, or to modify (nicer word for fake..haha) an Oz accent.
Sure miss the lahs & crazy unselfconscious chats.
