My dear friend DeLon came back to Kampar by car to settle his business with UTAR and his accomodation. With him he brought along 3 other friends, 1 which I have known him before this - Vincent, the other 2, sort of good friends now - Just Ng (owner of the car - Nissan Frontier) and Chin Siang (the driver for most of the time).
Saturday
They left Kuantan at 2.30a.m, Saturday and reach here at around 7a.m. I was already awake then (8a.m. class), so I brought them to breakfast.
Class, bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla bla...........
My cousin Kin Yau a.k.a Siak brought them for the famous Kampar's chicken-in-bread (面包鸡) for lunch
After my class ends, we went with them to Grand Kampar Hotel to check in. Goofed around in the hotel room for awhile then went swimming at the hotel's swimming pool (the pool is from Alive in the Wonderland -.- small). And boy o~ boy was it fun.
Goofing around in the hotel room
A present from Vincent.
Vincent left me a "gift" when we were swimming. I was walking along the edge of the pool when Vincent pushed me all of a sudden. I tried hard to balance but I gave in and fell into the pool with my leg scratching the sharp edge of the pool all the way from bottom to top. And trust me....it was so much fun that I practically screamed in agony. I cursed like mad from the beginning of my bath till the end of it... darn bloody painful... However, still alive nonetheless^^
Went for gaming session at one of the local cyber cafes here. DeLon had been wanting to show them the cyber cafes here in Kampar. It is WWWAAAAYYYYY better than those in Kuantan. Imagine that!! Kuantan, a city lose to Kampar, practically a village here! Sigh.....
For dinner, I was planning on bringing them to the famous clay-pot chicken rice here, but the 2 best ones didn't open, sigh...and we had to go for the least nicer 1. Then went for more gaming after that. For you should know, the game Left 4 Dead 2 just came out and we are all Left 4 Dead gamers. ^^
Went for supper after that and slept at 2.30a.m together in the hotel room.
Sunday
Slept at 2.30 a.m. and woke up at 5 a.m. to check out from Grand Kampar Hotel (who the hell check out that early!?!?) and go all the way to Ipoh to have it's famous Foh San Dim Sum. It has been ages since I last woke up that early.......or did I ever?..hmm.. By the time we reached the destination, we were told by the taxi driver (we had no idea where is it so we hire a taxi to escort us) that Ming Court Dim Sum, a shop opposite Foh San, is nicer. In Rome, do what the Romans do, so we went into Ming Court to have our darn-friggin-early breakfast, it was barely 7a.m then.
The Dim Sum in Ming Court are nice...nothing in Kuantan can compare to this. And it's 猪肠粉, it is one of the best I've ever tasted.
Dim Sum at Ming Court
When we finish our breakfast, it was so early that we have no idea where to go... So, we went to a cyber cafe (again) that my cousin is familiar with. We stayed there till around 10a.m. and then it is mall time!
We went Jusco and then to Ipoh Parade for bowling matches. In Jusco, I've encountered with a strange sign in the food court:
Queue UP there??? They expect us to climb???
My friends from Kuantan sure have their eyes open with all the Ipoh girls they saw. ^^
It was around 4~5p.m. when we left Parade. We almost go round the whole Ipoh searching for a decent hotel. We were under a strict budget so we went from hotel to hotel to search for a decent yet affordable one. We went to Syuen hotel, FairPark hotel and called Tower Regency hotel and at last, we settled for Excelsior hotel which is near to Parade.
Just Ng and Chin Siang looking for Ipoh girl maybe xD
The hotel's not bad and it is near to Foh San Dim Sum and Ipoh's famous Lou Wong Tauge (beansprout) Chicken is just a few streets away. BINGO!!
We went for the Tauge Chicken that night.
We were all very tired that day (had only 2 hours sleep the previous night) so we went back to our hotel room after dinner and hibernated before 10p.m.
Monday
Woke up at 8a.m. and went for breakfast. This time, it's Foh San.
Foh San just moved their old shop to this gigantic majestic-looking double-storey new building. IT'S A GOD DAMN DOUBLE-STOREY BUILDING WHICH SELLS ONLY DIM SUM!!
But if you ask me, I'll prefer Ming Court. Foh San's dim sum are nice, but it is more expensive than Ming Court. And I just prefer having dim sum in Ming Court. The atmosphere there is better - the building is a little old and have a certain feel to it, a feel suitable for having dim sum. ^^
We went back to Kampar around noon for I have a presentation at 2p.m. and DeLon have to meet up with the officers of UTAR.
Brought one of my friend to buy Kampar's famous Chicken Biscuit then brought them to one of the famous clay-pot chicken rice in Kampar for dinner.
We goofed around for a little while while they pack their luggage. They left for Kuantan at around 12.30a.m. that night.
Timeless Thoughts On Love - #4. Reflections On Love
This is the true meaning of love:
when we believe that we alone can love,
that no one could ever have
loved so much before us,
and that no one will ever
love in the same way after us.
(Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe, 1749-1832 German poet, writer, dramatist and statesman)
Ouch!
