Day Trip

On impulse yesterday during lunch I texted my mom if I could go home for lunch today since it’s a public holiday and I have absolutely nothing better to do here in Kampar and to my delight she agreed easily to that and also to me bringing along two friends!

I really like bringing my Uni friends to our hometown. I feel so proud being the tour guide when driving them around and introducing them to the places’ history and whatever stories I can remember.

Today would be my third time bringing them back with me and by far is the most successful trip, in my opinion. There were only two of them this round, Chingoo and her old high school buddy. The two of them are really laid back people, really chinchai and sui bian so things were really easy to be settled.

We left early in the morning to reach around 11am then hung around in my house then went out to lunch!

Lunch was so awesome I don’t even….

The previous two trips I had wanted to bring them to Bei King Restaurant but on both occasions they were closed to cater to wedding dinners. I remember getting so pissed and my friends were disappointed because I rambled quite a bit about how awesome the food there was.

But this time…bwahahahahaha

SUCCESS!!!! /ala Dexter/

They enjoyed their lunch so much and were so stuffed afterwards. It was next to impossible for me to hide my smug face and grin seeing them enjoying the food. I was so proud it was as though I just saved the world or something haha!!

Then we headed to Aeon, which is like the ‘hang out’ place now in our not-so-little town. As predicted, we spent the most time in Daiso and the book store.

The highlight of the day would be the beach. The two of them really love the beach so I’d be pretty guilty if I didn’t bring them to Marina (Teluk Batik no way man..lol so dirty there omg).

And I never knew that place could be so scenic!!! Like seriously!! Maybe because I’ve always went at night or in the evenings during the low tide so I never saw the high tide and how beautiful the turquoise water was. The sun was partially hidden behind thin clouds and there weren’t many people around causing the place to be quiet and peaceful just the way I like places to be.

i am so happy about these pictures :) they turned out well!! haha yes a bit edited but in my defence i only clicked on "auto contrast" hehe 

p/s: right click, open link in new tab to see full size :D

We left after about 20 minutes or so because the sun was fully out and it got really sunny and hot.

We went back home to chill for a while before departing for Kampar and now I’m back in me dorm, waiting for tomorrow to come so that I can go home again haha!!
