Back to Teluk Intan

So now for my 'back in Teluk Intan' post. Came back with the usual InterCity KTM from Central to Tapah Road. Watched the Butterfly Effect(it's a movie btw) on my laptop in the train. Didn't like the movie. Too psychopath-ish, gruesome killing and just a psycho movie. Freaks.


Back to good old Teluk Intan. Much have changed over the years. Been here ever since birth and I love it. Recent changes include McD, hypermarket, Giant(when is it ever gona open) and yes, a cinema(oh finally).


By the way it is in PERAK! Just for those of you who don't know. If you googled Teluk Intan, you'd find pictures and info of the Leaning Tower and Chee Cheong Fun. Those are synonymous to Teluk Intan.




For more info and pics on the delicious food of Teluk Intan move ya mouses over here and fire away.

Now for how I spent my SHORT holiday.

Good Friday
So this was the day that our Lord Jesus died on the cross for all our sins bearing the pain and the shame for us.

We were vegetarians and had parrapu(?) sambar and pappadum(?). Yeah it's the curry/sauce you guys usually eat with thosai and roti canai in KTT. Pappadum is the yellow crunchy keropok kinda thingy u eat at Indian restaurants. Went to church in the evening and had butter naan for dinner, yummy.



Saturday
Went to my secondary school to see my old friends and teachers. They had school as it was the day to take the report card. Most of my teachers said I lost weight(yay) and most if not all was staring at my earring, Teluk Intan people, seesh. Had fun going back to school, felt like it was form 5 all over again. But I would never had entered form 6 there.

After picking up my bro from school and getting his report card, went to string my new badminton racquet =D I finally bought a racquet, its a cheap one la so don't comment so much, I not as rich as you guys lol. Went for lunch at our fav char siew rice shop. We went shopping after that, could u imagine lol. First time my bro wanted to go shopping, guess times have changed haha. Bought overselves a nice tee each and headed home.


Went to church around 9 and bro played guitar and mum played organ for the Easter Mass. They both played very well. One day gotta go play for church, maybe during my holidays after A2 till flying to India. Went to Nana's place for supper and had her famous roast chicken with sausages and salad and bread.



Sunday :: Easter
The day Jesus rose from the dead, conquered death and lives forevermore in heaven.

Went out for lunch in Aunty Cecilia's place. Had a really good lunch with steamed chicken and mixed salad and prawn sambal and her famous sourish pork soup with that vegetable which I forgot the name lol, Chinese name I think.

Chatted the whole day and had amazing roasted lamb for dinner. Took extra big helpings haha sorry guys. I'm royalty =D Slept early.



Monday
Woke up early, went to get my full license =D No more stupid P license. I'm free to break the rules now haha. Oh yeah, I just got my credit card also haha, unlimited shopping! Haha.

So that's about it for my holiday. Wasted couldn't ,meet up with u guys but nvm la, I'll be back in June. We'll have a gathering then perhaps.

Can't wait to go to INTEC for the combined CF this Thursday.

Big birthday bash :: March babi-es :: Cafe KTT


Next up comes Feskott 2009, which actually is Festival Sukan Kolej Teknologi Timur. It was quite fun cause all the Diploma students(a lot) and Matrix students were also involved so it was the whole of KTT there. I was in the Yellow house and we basically won almost every track and field event(thanks to Keshan of course) and we won the most Havoc group, and the best tent decorations and Larian Mesra, and olahragawan also from our group(Keshan) but we didn't win overall. Red house won and it was quite controversial cause everyone thought it would be us. But we had a lot of fun especially our group leader taunting other teams when we won something. It was super funny. When Red team won, instead of cheering Red team, the others were chanting "Kuning tak menang, HAHA". That was so funny. It was a fun event after all.



This is totally random butt(pardon the pun) I have an err I think I can call it interesting/disgusting story here. It started like any other evening, Me, Selvan and Keshan couldn't play badminton coz it was very windy so decided to go jalan-jalan at the padang there. Then we thought lets go to the abandoned buildings at the side(near the main road). It was the same as ever, my thoughts were, it was a place to dump bodies and no one would find out, someone else thought it was a place to make out(haha). After passing that, we came upon the great evil! There was a guy butt naked(I always thought it was just a saying, boy I was wrong), taking his bath from a water source. We looked at each other, and instead of covering up, he was just calmly covering his private part with a cloth, EWW. And after that ordeal, we kept walking and suddenly there was a friggin Rottweiler barking at us. It was huge and the chain looked worn out. Seriously was kinda scared it just might charge at us, walked quickly by and thank God nothing happened. Wouldn't recommend taking that route to anyone in KTT. Unless you want to have an eyesore and a death wish =D




Another ramdomity. In KTT we all know the sad state of the WiFi which we PAY for. Now i'll go through the stages to actually get connected to the internet in KTT
1. Search for KTT1 or KTT2 signal. (most probably can't find it other than stupid StandAlone)
2. If there is a signal, it might be zero bar so don't get too excited yet.
3. Try connecting, fail to connect about a zillion times.
4. Once connected, you're not there yet, it might be LOCAL only, no internet.
5. Once there's internet, gotta check wether can even use it. Most of the time can't even load Yahoo.
6. Once in a blue(nah blue is too often, once in a rainbow-coloured moon) the internet is at usable speed.

So that is our sorry state of internet in KTT. No wonder people are switching to broadband nowadays. Broadband is quite pricey but its really fast. Bad influence though. You'd better study aight.



60 Earth Hour! 11-2-A2 supports Earth Hour! We switched off all our lights and Keshan and Selvan tried to study by a stand lamp brought by Keshan but to no avail. Me and Selvan desperate to study went to CR. On the way, saw all the people walking in the opposite direction to the cafe, even the nerds and all those people we have never seen(okay rarely seen) before coming out of their enclaves. But we, super nerds instead was heading in the opposite direction, that was really pathetic lol.




So next up was exams. We had our first practical exams which I was quite nervous to do actually. The lecturer made us feel so much 'better'. "You all are the first batch, first time doing practical, first session, don't be nervous". Bio lab was okay-ish I suppose, almost made a mistake with the slide and mitosis. Chem lab was rushy cause we had to do 3 experiments within an hour, think I messed up the QA a bit. Phy lab was okay-ish also except the circuit was confusing lol.



And us being the nerds we are, Wong came up the tangga, I asked him how was Chem, he complained "Aiyah! I got 1 wrong!" Haha. All of us here even 1 mistake can be costly. I remember last time in Form 5, 1 wrong would be like amazingly hebat people lol.




So after exams we scooted off to Mid Valley and shopped all day. Didn't buy anything though hmm. Finally tried Subway here. It was great but not as good as the one in Australia(miss the bacon lol =D)



Basically that is all that happened in KTT. Yes this must be my most boring post yet but, maybe KTT is getting more boring day by day. Even the scandals are getting boring cause its getting overly complicated nowadays. Gossip Girl pun kalah la haha.

Okay then, till the next holidays! Happy KTT-ing. KTT-ians rock!
