00:00I wasn't expecting to like it here this much. I really, really like it.
00:08Mmm! Very yummy! Yeah!
00:21This is so cool!
00:23Just like another world!
00:26It sounds pretty cool.
00:27It's awesome. I'm sold.
00:30Just being on the ground.
00:32I need a new purpose.
00:35I'm looking for so much more.
00:38Don't leave me here searching.
00:41You're just what I'm longing for.
00:44When times are getting crazy,
00:48and everything seems crazy...
00:49Okay, we just got to Panang Airport.
00:51We flew in from Kuala Lumpur,
00:53and I accidentally left my laptop in my checked bag.
00:59I didn't realize until we got through security,
01:01and it wasn't in my backpack.
01:02I ran back to the checking counter,
01:04and told them.
01:05And they basically said,
01:07don't worry about it.
01:08It takes too long to get it back,
01:09and it should be fine.
01:11So we're going to see if it is fine.
01:19It's in there.
01:28Oh, wow.
01:29Awesome.
01:30I was freaking out for the whole flight.
01:33Worried that my laptop was going to be wrecked.
01:36But that's a testament to these level A carry-on luggages,
01:41because it was just sitting in there the whole flight.
01:45It survived?
01:46It survived.
01:47Thank goodness.
01:48What a stressful flight that was thinking about it.
02:06Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes I gotta remind myself.

08:51they're gonna give us an update and tell us that everything's all good hopefully
08:54which means I've been yeah constantly pulling my phone out
08:58I'm not really too present and just a little bit stressed which I'm not beating myself up for I think
09:05it's understandable but I am happy and I can say this genuinely thank God for e-sims because I bought
09:12an e-sims because I bought an e-sim when we were coming here I just bought a three day
09:16one I was gonna just bought a three day one I was gonna just
09:17buy it to buy it so that we had one when we landed and then just figure it out as
09:20we went but because of this happening I decided to top up so I got an air low e-sim
09:26and what I like about it is that it will send you a reminder to top up your e-sim
09:31when it's about to run out so the day before no the day we flew to Georgetown I topped it
09:37up using the app which was super simple so I've got like another seven days on this e-sim if
09:44you want to check out air low we'll put the QR code on the screen
09:47as well as a link in the description and just use the code Lloyd and Mandy and you'll get 15
