THE END

Enough about those 2 =x

It's been so long since I've blogged a proper activity. How was Chinese New Year for everyone ? Taking over from where I left off from my previous post .. CNY for me is activities after one another and here I'm going to share one of them.

I visited Ipoh on the 3rd day with my friends for a change. The rush of driving outstation solo for the first time without family ... and poking around a strange town =D it was fun xD although a bit scary at first ... as the house we're staying is quite "inside" the housing area .. but with houses like this

their electric bill must be high =.=

as landmark on where to turn ... it was quite safe =D As I brought my car there ... I get to visit zudian and also suetwah ... bumped into siew chong they all while at zudian's place. =D

We bunked in at kC's place and guess who got to be the maid now ? xD

Maid 001

the real kC at home

Was suppose to be out and about in Ipoh eating all the delicacies there ... but we end up sleeping late ... and playing wii most of the time xD Just a few days, our dear kingsley have became the tennis champ ... dailou the boxing king ... and waiyee the princess of bowling =D Here is the wii moments

And how is CNY complete without card games ?


After all that, we revisited our childhood with firecrakers

yeah i know this isn't fireworks but it's just funny xD

Well, we did get to go around to eat the local produce before we head home =D

their taugeh very big one

Our dinner before we head home was the best ! It was cheap and delicious ~ Too bad there isn't any pictures .. everyone was busy eating xD It is located in a housing area so it was quite difficult to find ... well for me that is. I think the locals will have no problem xD I only know it as "big small legs" in cantonese as it's famous for it's chicken and pork legs.

All in all, although we did miss a few things here and there Ipoh is great but ... but ... BUT ... the traffic lights are horrendous !!! It seems that every road there is a crossroad and you have to WAIT FOREVER for the lights to turn green ... and when they eventually turn green, people in front of you will just take their sweet time to cross and leaving you behind as the lights begin to turn red again. Then you wait ALL OVER AGAIN @.@

Before I sign off ... this is something we spotted while we were stopping at a rest area ... hmm ... xD

since when chu cheong fun become long keu tiaw ? hahahaha
