well.
guess what ;
whatever you're reading here is typed using notepad and copied and pasted onto a blank blog entry.
i've totally given up on typing straight into blogger.
just in case my computer suddenly decides to sleep and close all my windows; like 3 hours back
..
i typed an extremely long entry and all it had to do was for a popup to INFORM me that the computer was facing technical difficulties and had to shut down all its programmes running.
what a considerate computer.
i wonder what bill gates was thinking of.
...
anyway.
my previous attempt to type something into this blog was about the trip to malaysia.
perhaps i just got to do it all over again.
=)
that day was rather pleasant ;
apart from the waking up part and brushing my teeth thing, everything else went smoothly.
my mood was pretty wild early in the morning, considering the fact that i didnt eat my breakfast,
i wondered where all that energy came from,
oh wth.
i slept on two bus journeys afterwards.
our first stop was at a 'foodcourt'.
well.
honestly,
when you say FOODCOURT, you think of pretty dining tables, plastic chairs, air conditioned surroundings and a spacious canteen.
but what we experienced wasnt really much like it.
hahahs.
what was most disappointing was that we had to get up the bus before my bowl of malan noodles was served.
there went my very last hope of having a hot breakfast.
=(
i gave up and gobbled down the bun they distributed in the morning instead of keeping it for teabreak or something.
and then we went to the pineapple museum ; also known as muzium nanas.
i mean like . HELLO.
extreme heat.
dusty building.
strange tongue.
the heat was extreme and that guy just had to tell us ALL about those pineapples grown in pots and their origin.
whats funny was that our tour guide, who was also the translator, actually repeated EVERYTHING that man said.
he was trying to talk in our language.
WHATS THE USE.
she might as well let him use a loudspeaker and speak to us directly when we can already understand his VERY SHALLOW english.
duh.//
and then the dusty building.
the moment i stood inside the building for like 5 seconds, i started sneezing.
[my nose is extremely sensitive to dust.]
AND.
half of the museum's explanatory information was in malay.
woohoo- read what crap.
so after everyone managed to taste their pineapples, visit the toilet to let it out again, we moved on to kukup.
kukup is a fishing village.
and i suppose its the highlight of this trip.
i was a little delighted, considering the fact that i was one step closer to that seafood lunch we were told about.
we took a boat ride to one of those fish farms suspended on stilts in the middle of the sea.
the ride was rather cooling, the breeze seemed to cover up for that heat the sun was pouring on us.
whats weird was, the distance between the jetty and the farm was short and that uncle just had to make a big u turn before reaching it.
but oh, who cares.
its fun!
its a hard-to-come-by chance of being so near to the sea waters.
the sea creatures reared in the farm were all rather large, and expensive.so they introduced the animals.
and then there was this miniature shark that yuean held;
the guy said that it couldnt kill, but it can bite.
like UH HUH....
whats the diff?
it still threatens the safety of human life.
but yuean seem to have overlooked that little detail because she had loads of fun with it in her palms.
lol.
well.
at least the sea urchin was different.
its SUPPOSED to hurt but it did not.
so its safe.
=D
there was also this skinny dog that the farm kept.
it was a brilliant, sterillised mixed breed.
thing was, i couldnt figure out what sort of breed his papa and mama was.
then we made another u turn back to the jetty on the boat.
TA DA!
**************
SEAFOOD LUNCH.
**************
we had an 8 course meal.
and i particularly loved the steamed fish.
probably because they didnt steam it with heaps of ginger like my mum always does it.
and we found out an 'amazing' fact about mr foo.
HE WAS ALLERGIC TO CRABS.
lol.
the 2 big eaters on our table was non other than chengyi and yongli.
their plates were full of all sorts of shells.mussel shells, crab shells and prawn shells.
obviously,after eating all these seafood we had to wash our hands.
and guess what.
theresa made it straight into the guy's bathroom to use the basin.
hahahs.
fortunately ;
there wasnt any guy in the toilet.
hilarious.
after lunch, we wandered along the stalls back to our bus.they sold lots of things that singapore has banned.
we bought those pop seeds that contained gunpowder which 'blasts' under slight pressure.
then we popped all of it on the road.
some of us bought pirated vcds.
HEHEH.
there was this porn vcd that was titled shes the man or something similar to it.
that title is the title of the latest movie in cinemas right-
hahahs.
i think someone wanted to purchase it and that girl quickly kept it away.
lol.
hoho.
so we boarded the bus and made our way to our third destination ; tanjung piai.
the guide said that if we completed the 2km wooden walkway, we would reach the southern most point of mainland asia.
so we did.
the breeze was extremely strong, just the thing to cool us from the sweltering heat.
we hung around the area for quite a while before making our way back.i think that marked the end of the trip.
we then made our way back to the checkpoint.
but we stopped at the petrol station a few hundred metres away from the checkpoint for a toilet break.
i bought 2 cups of DELICIOUS CUPCORN!
wahahahas.
i remembered all the ingredients they used to season the corn!
HEHEH.
yuean ate icecream.
then we got passed both the checkpoints including the singapore one with the bubblegum and pirated vcds in our bag.
hahahs.
HOORAY.
after getting back to school, which was so stupid because the bus could have alighted everyone of us at compass point,we went to compass point.
STUPID.
we had our dinner at the foodcourt.
and then we hung around for a while before going home.
OK . not a while.
sam, yuean, pohyih and theresa were engaging in kiddo games at the bus interchange.
lol.
yuean missed ONE of her bus because she didnt bring her ezlink card and we didnt have time to lend her coins.
and we missed ONE bus because we decided to keep her company too.
hahahas.
so they kept playing.
every game they played revolved around scissors, paper and stone.
its interesting how humans manage to come up with so many kinds of games with slightly different rules with the same 3 hand signs.
anyway.
we got home in the end.
and instead of crossing the road and taking a bus 74 home, i walked.
i was stupid ok.
i spooked my own self all the way back by taking an 'ooo luu' road home.
and when i got home and showed my mum the vcds i bought, she smacked me aside and watched them.
LIKE HEY.
I JUST WANT TO VENT LAHS! @#$%^&*().
RAWR-
so yeah.
i just went to bed and sleep.
hahahs.
it was pretty memorable.
wonderful weather.
OK.
not so wonderful.
but at least it didnt rain.
=)
great companions.
MAGNIFICENT FOOD-
what more can you expect?
hahahs.
x))

Sylvia. Syl. And someone you'll never expect me to be.
