(malaga: another coastal city)

so happy to have left cadiz. this city is ok. not my ideal place to spend the new year but it will have to do. since i am already here, i may as well make the most out of it. another coastal city with crappy beaches.


(malaga: random shots of old city)

i read the guide when i arrived and it says malaga has one of the highest crime rate in spain. i was like wtf ? i thought it was barcelone. but then again its a 2001 guide. so. its probably dated. it feels safe just like madrid or barcelona.

was lucky to arrive on the day when the picasso museum is free. but had to queue about 40 minutes to get in. it was worth the wait coz i really enjoyed the museum.

the city itself reminds me just like sevilla. u know. there is the old city, the cathedral, the bull ring ... etc.) they took a model of a city and press control-C and then control-V everywhere around spain.


(malaga: the cathedral, of coz)

the new year eve celebration was pretty mad though. spent it with a group of insipid amricans (of coz), australians (of coz) and brits (of coz). they are everywhere. hehe. everyone was putting up a front in front of each other and bitching behind everyones back. its great being asian becoz u always stay neutral and ppl each to you. haha. and i agreed with everyone of them. so i just nodded. haha.

met another film maker from the states who is currently making a docco in morroco. man. she speaks real fast. i swear she could regurgitate like 100 words in 10 seconds. its like she has to say everything before the clock striked 12. haha.

also met this english girl from birmingham who lived there all her life and she spent an hour convincing me not to go there becoz its such a shit hole. i was thinking, no where on earth could be worse than atlanta.


(malaga: NY crazy nite)

the clock struck 12. we had champagne, had to eat 12 grapes for good luck (dont ask me why but i m so going to have a great year) and wear new undies ;)


(malaga: more NY crazy night !)

so glad to have left cadiz and hit malaga. for some strange reason, everything always works out in the end.

once again ...

happy 2008 !
