I heard once that Malaysia has one of the highest number of public holidays in the world. I'm not surprised; we have a tendency to celebrate anything, with just cause (or we'll make one up). Thought the topic would be appropriate considering today and tomorrow are public holidays. Not just that, they are celebrations that are both religious in Ninanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5301942.post-941978732003-05-12T05:05:00.000-07:002003-05-12T05:15:31.000-07:00The Netherlands : Weather: Cloudy,some sunshine.

It's currently 10:00 p.m. (GMT -5:00) here in Raleigh, North Carolina. I know the time stamp says it's tomorrow. Where Farhad is, that's true. But for me it's still today. I'd originally planned to segue from last week's entry to a more particular discussion of what makes American culture simultaneously pervasive yet difficult to define.

And really, just like any other of you, I found it hard to find a certain topic to write. But since my partner, Irini has started off with some facts about our country, let me just tell you about the new phenomena in this lovely country of mine, a wave of Asian culture!

Hi! Hola! Shalom! Ciao! Aloha! Herete! Konichiwa! Anyunghaseo! Wei, ni hau...? My name is Irini from Indonesia. First thing first, a big thumbs up for Farhad for this brilliant idea of an iblog. And secondly, like many fellow writers in this blog I also come to a point where I have absolutely have no idea what to write for the first time, not to mention that I'm the first from Indonesia. irini noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5301942.post-938488222003-05-06T00:21:00.000-07:002003-05-06T00:21:41.236-07:00Hello, i'm the french boy, i haven't french hat and i don't buy french bread.

I'm from Malaysia. As this is my first entry on the international weblog, I am a little nervous about what to write. I agree with many of the points that Nina brought up in the previous entry. Both me and Nina are very westernised asians, and we'll try to share as many points as we can about our culture. My views can be quite askewed at times, and as such, should not be taken as sinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5301942.post-937435362003-05-04T05:08:00.000-07:002003-05-04T05:08:16.040-07:00Hello all, I'm Nina, and I'm afraid I must inform all of you, lest you are expecting something different, that I don't usually write serious blog entries. In fact, most of them are quite frivolous and trivial. So all of you dear readers can be safe to assume that anytime I post, it'll just be about the frivolous and trivial in Malaysia. :) The irony of being a part of this wonderful idea by Ninanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5301942.post-936996532003-05-03T03:57:00.000-07:002003-05-03T03:57:18.466-07:00*** Today my dear friend Fred unfortunately didn’t post his essay yet, then I decided to post one article by Richard Yolka from USA.

A great idea from Farhad. He approaches me to join the team a few weeks ago and I did not have to think long before I say yes to this project.

Writing the first entry in any forum presents more opportunities for mistakes and misprisions than writing subsequent entries. I will probably look back on this essay in future weeks and months and wonder why I didn't foresee the topics chosen or tone taken by others. Too late for regrets, though: the ball is rolling.
