*This is an outdated entry*
For the past 3 months of my time in Singapore, most of the time I stone with Jin. A dude who I knew for around 3 years, we went to training at Penang and shared a room for 5 months. We were in the same group for the last few semesters for every assignment. My social life is kind of imbalance because I seldom talk to opposite sex during my time in Singapore due to many reasons.
So, after 3 months of the gayness I felt. I must do something to balance up myself on the interacting with females section. So, way before I head back to KL already got few girls wanted todate stone with me. They plan to spend a weekend at Seremban, hometown of the trip organiser.
Only 4 persons who will be going for this trip, 3 girls and 1 dude which is me. Knew them from Ochacha, they are Snow, Li Wah and the organiser Veaky. You guys must be thinking, wow!! Edward is so lucky!!! (read on before make the conclusion)
I have a bad feeling about this trip when the organiser trying to give us surprise throughout the trip by not telling us any of her plan. (well, at least I am the most clueless among them) We met up at Tesco Extra Taman Midah at 11.15pm. Why so late?? Reason is to avoid traffic jam.
We got into Veaky's car cluelessly and in my mind was since I am having holiday. Whatever it is, I should be enjoying it since it is out of town. My first question to organiser was "is there any food in Seremban besides Siu Pao" She replied "got many...let me think"
so, we reach Seremban about 1am something if not mistaken. We came to this semi-d house cluelessly, few ladies came out from the house. (as far as I am concerned, she told me her family is not around) Then out of a sudden, a lady came in and sat behind of the car with Liwah and Snow. 3 of us stunned for awhile and became more cluelessly. Then departed from the house and head to mamak for supper. (only knew it until we saw the mamak)
My clueless and confusing mood changed to emo mode after I saw the TV showing Fulham 1-0 Manchester United with 9 minutes to go. We sat down and ordered some food and drinks while my attention is all on that tv screen. My emo mode change to depression when Fulham scored second goal and eventually my heart sink to the bottom of the world when Rooney got sent off. (fuck!) Ohya, that lady who came into the car out of a sudden is Veaky's auntie. (she didnt introduce to us until Snow ask her to do so) =_="
We still dont know where will we be staying for the night until we head back to the same place. So we bring our things down and went into the big house. 3 of us sit in the living room cluelessly again while Veaky is entertaining with her cousins and sisters. =_="
Then Snow again ask her to introduce, cause the situation during that time is kind of weird and we dont know who the heck are they.
After that we went up to second floor and place our bags in her room. Then she stunned me again by asking me "where do you want to sleep?" o_O" How am I suppose to know where to sleep???
Ok, end up we all shared the room. Nothing nasty happen at all so dont think too far. (I was moodless to think about anything but to get some rest due to the bad start I faced on this trip)
The ceiling fan is spinning at no. 5 like a helicopter and all I got is a pillow, a mattress on the floor with my own towel which is only enough to cover my legs. Oh, we've been told to wake up at 6am for breakfast.
whole night I was rolling around, adjusting my tiny little 'blanket' then 5.30am I cant take it anymore and its freaking cold. I was awake but try my best to fall asleep again. At this moment, I heard rain drops and yes...started raining 30minutes before the time I should wake up. I was freezing cold and really counldn't sleep. Someone woke up and threw me a blanket, but it was too late and I was fully awake by that time.
So we all woke up at 6am when our alarms rang. Guess what?? we stone in the room until 8 something before leaving the house for breakfast. =_=" reason, her aunt's family cant wake up...
morning breeze...
after everything settle, then I only I know the next thing after breakfast is hot srping. Requested to bring clothes for changing afterward but I didnt bring extra clothes for that. So I leave the house empty handed. With the mood going down deeper...
breakfast...kopi kaw and konlo lou shu fun (dried mouse tail noodle)
when my noodle been serve in front of me...only I realise Seremban's mouse have long tail and the tip is not sharp. Obviously the tauke made a mistake but he insist that is lou shu fun. Mood going down deeper again.
after breakfast, head to hot spring. In my mind, it is a natural hot spring whereby I can be close to nature. Even I cant have fun with them, I can still enjoy it with my camera. Mana tau....
wet world resort with spicy hot water???
my mood go to the other end of the world already...I was kind of an ass during that time cause my mood was showed on my face with organiser's family around, but I really cant hide it. Worse still, I have to pay freaking 10 bucks to go in. At that point, I was numb already and willingly pay that 10 bucks without hesitating.
orangey arm band for the day...woo-hoo~ =_="
my entertainment???
blue sky!!!
the wet world...
Basically, many years ago it was a natural hot spring which close to nature until some smart asses make it into business purposes...so this is what we got. At one tiny corner, there is hot spring, other than that it is just a normal water park.
the spicy hot water. (do you smells something is cooking??)
its extremely hot with 130C!!!
rules to follow before you cook yourself...
and the spicy water contents following ingredients...
didnt know there are so many ingredients needed to make a spicy dish...XD
because of no extra clothes for me to get change, my rm10 was paid for few minutes of boiling my legs...
gloop~ gloop~ gloop...
I was kind of totally turn off when its close to noon whereby more and more people coming in. Worse still and as usual...they dive in with full attire.
"wah...syok gila~ ha-ha-ha"
I stone for many hours until I dont know how long is it...
one thing is quite funny on the dress code they have.
my question is, is the light blue 'seluar renang' meant for male or female??? XD (just being lame)
see, how 'happy' am I after stoning for several hours...haha. (above with Li Wah and bottom with Snow)
after that, we went for lunch at around 3pm if not mistaken.
long waited hokkien mee and fruit rojak...but both sucks big time. FAILED!!!
But these had cheer me up a bit cause after all, my first aim for holiday is food!!!
then we head back home to get some rest and end up all of us took a long nap until 6pm.
evening breeze...
we stone for some times while Li Wah cut Veaky's dad's hair and others just walk around. At about 7pm..we leave the place to see animals.
on our way to see animals...
because its quite late and the sky turning darker and darker...we cant see them clearly. But there are camels, horses, ostritches, deers and etc etc...
one of the horses...
after that, Veaky's dad brought us to have dinner.
the road side stall...
we ordered this...
'Tau Pok Teh' instead of Bak Kut Teh...
the numbers of fried bean curd is so scary that you can hardly find a piece of pork in that clay pot...
only can find them when you dig deeper...
pork and pig intestines...yummy!!! (by far the best meal we had in Seremban)
then again we head back to the house and stone until 11pm until we headed out again to hunt for supper. As Snow requested...IKAN BAKAR~
delicious grilled fish...
Veaky, me and Snow with the grilled fish...
finally I feel better, thanks to food. Although I know Seremban have famous local food but our organiser just cant bring us there. Sad case...
At this point while enjoying grilled fish, my mood drop down again as Liverpool scored 2 goals against Aston Villa early of the game. mcbccbknsdns!!! After that, got no mood again and head home to get some rest.
Next day, woke up at 7am after double confirm with Veaky about what time to leave the place and head back to KL. Because we dont want to have the same experience like the day before.
Monday morning, woke up and all I heard is Li Wah and Snow saying "dan wong, dan wong" (egg yolk) I was kind of blur until I look out the window and saw this shiny thingy...Immediately I grab my camera and ran out to the balcony...
ahhh....best thing after food to cheer me up is beautiful sky.
after got ourself ready, we leave the place at 9am to get some breakfast and ofcourse, to buy the most important thing in Seremeban. The only think I can think off when I hear the name Seremban. The only thing we will mention it with the name Seremban in front of it....
SIEW PAO!!!!
Veaky brought us to this shop called Siew Pao Asia. She said it is the best in Seremban and we believe her. She told us normally they sell Rm 1.10 for one Siew Pao but if buy a big numbers might get cheaper price.
the more than 3 decades shop with over 3 generations history Siew Pao shop...
we bought 6 boxes, 2 boxes each with 10 Siew Pao per box and 10 egg tarts each as well.
egg tarts...
guess how much we paid?? Exactly Rm1.10 per Siew Pao and Egg Tart. (count yourself for the total amount we paid) No discount even we bought 60 Siew Paos and 30 egg tarts. what a retart... We got conned again. By the way, we got 4 free curry puff for testing from the tauke soh.(lady boss)
After that, instead of getting some Serembanians breakfast. We insist of having a proper Chinese breakfast because our organiser will end up surprising us again if we ask her to decide. We stop by at one kopitiam and its a heaven for me!!!
the real kopitiam...
kopi kaw, yin yang toast and half boil egg for breakfast. Awesome!!!
Li Wah and Snow is having some Seremban famous noodle and after they ordered. Veaky told us " why eat here, should have told me earlier. I ask my grandma cook. It taste many times better than this"
we all again stunned and replied " we are from KL and we are clueless about what to eat in Seremban, so dont expect us to tell you bring us to eat this particular food" unless we heard about it, unfortunately we never!
Conclusion, our organiser really failed this time. Hopefully she will learn from this experience and eventually become a proper Seremban tour guide. haha.
after that we head back to KL~
just some random pphotos...
empty egg shells...
ah Snow...our supervisor aka big sis
Li Wah, the future hair stylist....
Veaky, the inexperience tour guide...
and me...the stoner for whole trip~
ya, see you again Seremban. I know there are still plenty things inside you that I need to explore.
auntie will bring you all go makan-makan. haha
So now, you tell me. Is Edward very lucky on this trip?? Well, even though at few points I really thought of going back to KL but I didnt do it. I just prefer a more well planned trip instead of a trip that full of surprises...Holiday continues~
ps: sorry for squeezing 2 days 2 nights trip in 1 entry. No choice cause there are more entires coming up for my holiday
