Malaysians meet Bloomington Park

In remembrance of our home country's independence,
we did what we Malaysians were good at to remember
it, cooking, eating and being very good social creatures.

We had a barbecue at Bloomington park which is a
part of Clinton Lake. It was a good day so we even
 invited some of our Singaporean comrades. Beautiful 
people, definitely.

Oh, and I forgot to mention that we had the
badminton sports group join us for the barbecue
as well. Very good people and very good players,
so come on down to the University of Kansas,
and we'll definitely let you in on a game or two
if you're here on a Friday or a weekend.

Here are some of the highlights of the event on
Saturday.

That's all of us that were at the barbecue right there.
Now this isn't the whole gang. We have more Malaysians.
Somewhere.

Yep, doing what we Malaysians do best, waiting for food.
The food was excellent. Hats off to those who prepared
the food.


Yes, I kid you not. This is a fruit pizza, made for this
special event. I was looking for this thing but the only
time I got to see it was this photo.

I personally can't believe 55 years have gone by 
already since our independence. Makes you feel
old. hah. Although I do wonder, where did the
patriotism go? Just food for thought. I mean
nothing by that. Anyways, moving on.

Another highlight. Our Malaysian brother feeding his dog
a sausage. Lots of love shown here.

After all that we played volleyball. Men vs the Women.
The women were clearly winning. Then again it was
because there were about twelve girls and it was against
seven guys. So yeah.

After that was all said and done, some of us decided to
go to one of our houses to play Mahjong.
Two Chindians, one Chinese and one Indian.
Guess who is who?

After Mahjong...


This resulted. Full day well spent indeed.

This is just the beginning though (hopefully). We probably have more
 events coming up but we're just going with the flow. Malaysian style.

More to come soon (that's for sure).  Peace out.
