read at ur own risk.
Alright, it's already almost a month since I came here to Perak. How time flies. It all happened in just a glimpse. Time has been passing me so fast. I really need to chase after every second I have here. There's so lil time yet I've tonnes of stuff to do, to manage and to enjoy.
Anyway, you wont believe wat happened to me again. I went back to Klang last friday and it was all yet another experience I had. Can you believe me and my frens without knowing a single thing just traveled back to KL by bus and by our own "intelligence". FIrst, we walked out from UTP to the bus station outside which took us almost an hour. Lesson to learn, never walk using "eleven bus" (as in ur leg) lol to the outside gate of the uni. It takes years. So, we waited for a few minutes for the bus. We saw the IPOH word on the bus and we just board it. darn driver cheated us on the bus fare. It actually cost RM1 to ipoh yet he charged us RM3 per person. how dare him.
It was quite a long journey, around 1 hour plus. At least it was long in tht lousy old almost-break-down bus. We were worried cos we have no idea at all where to get down. But with our intelligence in eavesdropping a guy's conversation, we found out tht guy is going to medan kit as well. So we decided, if he gets down we shall get down. =) So then, we reached Medan Kit where we took another bus to Medan Gopeng. It was quite messy with so many buses and ppl and heat and smoke and stuffy. ahh. but we managed to board the medan gopeng bus due to an old ahma shouted "MEDAN GOPENG" from inside the bus. lol. Then again we dono when to get down cos we have no idea how medan gopeng looks like and all 3 of us dono how to communicate in cantonese. so, in the end we gotta eavesdropped ppl's conver again. lol But luckily the old ahma again shouted "MEDAN GOPENG STATION". so we are sure we got there.
This is where I really wanna THANK GOD for HIS protection. As we get down from the bus, we gotta cross one big busy road w/o any jejantas and all. So we crossed half of the road already when my friend accidentally hit my hand and my hp flew across the road. I was so afraid and duno whether to take the hp or just leave it cos it's sure gonna be crushed by the vehicles if i dun pick it and I dun wanna loose tht phone. So, in split second I just said, "God, just protect me" and I went over and pick it up. I kept looking on the oncoming cars. They speed like a rocket and all. But luckily I managed to pick it and get back to the side pavement. And yeah the car honk like mad. (maybe not tht exagerating)
Ok then, we went and get our tickets. Fortunately, we got the 2pm bus. After buying we decided to buy our tickets for our trip back from KL as well just in case there isnt any tickets left on tht day. We took our lunch and board the bus and met Xiao Han which is such a coincidence. Reached KL around 4.30pm. I HATE PUDU station. it's such a hectic, stuffy, smoky, heat-up place. And worst of all, a place for CRIMINALS. I shall tell tht climax later. From there, we split up. Me and cheryl walked to the Central Market to board another bus. She boarded the Metrobus to go home and I boarded a bus tht goes back to klang (I dono wat bus but it sure is better than the bus in Ipoh) Before tht, we passed by the Chow Kit road and bought the mata kucing drink. Oh and on our way we saw there was a filming going on and I'm not sure if we're in their background scene cos we were walking behind them while the camera is shooting. cool eh. ahah We waved a lil. lol while the girl was crying. I guess it was a sad scene.
Oh so I boarded the bus just in time when the bus moves. (I cant believe my experience in taking bus actually extended to KL) There's no place left accept one beside a fat man. I just sat there cos I am damn tired. so who cares. He was sleeping anyway. But later, he woke up and asked lots of stupid ques. I was a lil hesitate to answer and tell him stuff. Who is he, man. A stranger. He asked for my hp. no. for quite many times but I said sorry I dont give my no. to strangers. He just don understand tht statement tho' I said it like thousand times. As soon as the bus reached the Klang station, I said bye and get up and poof. lol
It was such a nice feeling to be home again. So many things changed at home. Even the layout of my room changed. Cant believe they alter it when Im not around. It was such a tiring day but we still talked like there's no other day. lol. There's so much to catch up even with my families lol. So sorry, you guys ( you noe who you are) I cant hang out with you all this time cos I was out the whole day at the PCfair.
The next day I was at the PCfair with my family w/o my sis. It was all about crowd AGAIN. Did I tell you guys I have a phobia for crowds after the Mid valley incident. I got a bad headache after tht. So, we went around skimming thru all the devices. The HP stall is the most pack I guess. We need to take turns to look at the laptop and it tooks us so long. And after looking at all the models, I've no idea wat to choose and fortunately I have my bro to help me. Tht's the use of him coming along. lol after seeing so many, I found a perfect laptop which includes all of the features I want. And the promoter just tell me sorry no stock. Great. So, I chose another model which is almost similar to the previous one. ANd indeed again, it's out of stock. I was so frustrated I asked the promoter, "SO, wat model you have??!?!" They left with the HP tablet PC, one HP pavilion model and another Compaq model w/o windows. I wanted the tablet PC but the screen was too small. The HP Pavillion was RM3000++ which I think is kinda expensive (tho' it's still in the Petronas budget, but I guess its not necessary) so in the end, I bought the Compaq model w/o windows, bought the windows operating system separately (how ma fan), upgraded the warranty to 3 years, bought a 3-in-1 printer and in total I just spent RM2700++.
thts the laptop and printer. it's my study table btw. very small rite.
Later, we went down to the place where it seems to me like a pasar malam. Ppl bargaining like mad. My dad got my bro and sis a MP4 each. I bought 8 4GB pendrives. (bought it for friends) I bought a mouse as well. And then off we go. I cant stand it any longer. It took us almost half a day to buy all those stuff.
The next day, I went to church and left to pudu in the noon. And SO, this was the CLIMAX I was talking about. My parents were sending me off at the PUDU station. We had our lunch there. And as soon as we got up to leave the restaurant, I missed call my friend, Cheryl to let her know I reached the bus station already. And AS SOON AS I keep my hp in my pocket, my hp is gone. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT??!!! I knew it bcos as soon as I missed call Cheryl, she called back but cannot get through already. How Fast?!! tht thief was real fast. I still cant believe it can just happened in split second. And there goes my phone again. Okay I know I lost my phone too often. this is the 3rd time I think. But who knows this will happen?! arghh.
and this is wat I call fate. I mean I nearly loose my phone on Friday where it will be crushed but I saved it yet I still loose my phone on Sunday anyway. So, it's meant to go away. *sob*sob* All my contacts and precious pictures gone. ='( So, I dun have all of ur contacts rite now. miss call me or just msg me ur no. yea. So sad. all my ns contacts and you guys!! if u ever read my post la, rmb to call me or send me ur no. la. =D
YES, the bad luck is still not done. As if we have not enuf bad luck. guess wat, as we board the bus we our bags and all. We just found out our tickets are for the next day. It printed there 4 Aug 2008 which is on Monday. We were so afraid, yet the bus driver just shouted loudly at us (real loud and I am not exagerating) "LAIN KALI, CHECK TICKET KAMU SBLM NAIK BUS!!!!" wah. we were like fools up there. We quickly came down again before he shouted again. FYI, he shouted tht phrase TWICE. as if we cant hear him. Luckily my dad was still there. We went up again to settle our tickets and all. We were so afraid there's no more tickets for us to go back. A lot of things running thru my mind tht moment. It was actually our fault also for not checking the dates but tht ticket seller really cheated us on this. We told her sunday and I am so sure she heard us. Anyway, me and my dad went and asked the counter to help us get a bus and all. There's a bus going to UTP straight but it was the 10.45pm ticket. Tht was too late. I was like, "pls GOD, you have to provide us with the transport to get back early cos we dun wan to travel at night."
Somehow, we got a place for the 2.30pm bus. And thank GOD he answered my prayer and we got back to Ipoh just in time. We called for taxi which turns out to be a student from UTP tht drives the students around. (of cos he charged ppl la) We decided to head to Jusco first to get my new hp cos I dun think I can survive w/o a hp for a week here. We were given only half an hour. I went and took out some money from the bank and bought a new hp which cost me RM190 after bargaining. I made a new Simcard. Dun worry, same no. still. But I'll be changing to maxis soon cos ppl dun use Digi over here. Plus, if u use maxis here in UTP, you will only be charged one cent for a sms. Oh and after tht, we planned to "ta pau" some food back but the driver was waiting already. so, we thot aiya dun wan to let the driver wait la. so we went and saw him bought KFC back. We're like ahh! how could you. lol And he told us he can wait for us actually. say earlier la.
dats my new hp. cheap and hopefully it last
So finally, we got back to our hostel around 7.30pm. We paid him RM45 which is quite cheap considering the outside taxi charged around RM50++ plus, we went to Jusco also. so, it wasn't expensive actually. And so, tht was my weekend with so many stuff happening. hmm. I need to learn how to be careful with my belongings.
Oh yeah, one last thing tht night means sunday night or consider monday morning la. As we were sleeping soundly and so sweetly, the fire bell rings again at around 6.15am. My roomate waked me up actually. I didn't hear the bell rings at all. Anyway, so we were thinking is this a real fire going on or it's just another stupid lame fire drill again. Bcos if it is real, I wanna save all of my precious belongings!! lol especially my laptop and hp. It's all new wei. lol In the end I just brought down my hp cos I dun think its a real fire since it wasn't hot at all but cold. When we got down, yes it wasn't a fire at all. The bell just rang for no reason. damn. our precious nice sleep gone. Luckily it rang quite late around the time we're about to get up for classes. if it rang at 4am I'll just kill them. lol We went back to our sleep again after tht.
Oh k, so dats all la. Sry for the super long post la. ahah. Just wanna THANK GOD for everything la. I cant deny he had blessed me so much here. And really, when you're in trouble always look up to God cos he never fail to help and bring you thru the circumstances you're facing. I've been thru it and I know how true it is. Really. trust in the Lord in everything tht you do. You'll see the changes in ur life. You gotta believe. =)
