i was the coolest thing in kampar.

at the grand kampar hotel.

i should want to post this in events, but this trip is kinda long so and more important so i guess it deserves a place here :)

well, why kampar of all places? for a holiday? D: i don't know too, but we didn't choose it, no :)

technically, it was a church camp. yup. for leaders. 

we left on sunday afternoon, after church, and after lunch in apollos -_- and bought loads of stuff from 7-11. which we didn't even eat -_-

after reading some cleo or the newspaper the obvious thing to do was SLEEP right. i brought my pillow. though it was still uncomfortable. i tell you, that persona backseat really sucks.

before reaching kampar new town it was kinda sad-ish. 
mining pools everywhere, and lots of graveyards.

kampar new town was well, new. it's a really cute quaint-ish sort of place and at the centre of it all was the grand kampar hotel. it looked like the only thing which was grand in kampar. it looked like the only hotel in kampar.

but it was much better than expected for a place like, well, kampar.

reached there at... 3.30? roughly a 2 hour journey lah.

i am using my trusty twelveans luggage bag. it's not the nicest bag you'll ever see. but hey, i love it because only sexy athletes get it, and in my senior year too. it's much too big for 3 days and 2 nights -_- and oddly still, i manage to fill it to the brim. with two extra pillows yaw. :D

well we reach and my room's still not ready -_- so we lump everything in my parents room and take a walk...
the pool is tiny. and shallow. and on the rooftop. hahah. 

went about to do things. my room was only available at like 5.30. what a ripoff. and steph and sarah were there already! :D haha.
took my shower, and we joined the two single beds together :) air con! and the tv had star movies, espn, disney, wah lai toi and bbc news...? er. BUT. no actually we didn't have disney :( dunno why my room don't have while other rooms had.

sarah brought her ipad! :D

walked around. secret recipe and mcdonalds just around the corner. not bad :)
found bubble tea! :) for only 2.50. yup. 

sessions. dinner. not bad lah. i gotta say that there, the soup, was epic. everytime! :) er. i don't what fancy chinese name you call those soups, but they're uber nice. i think i drank more soup than i ate rice.

supper. we walked around the whole block. slight drizzle. reached a place called kampar station. it's like old town like that lah. kampar version. the prices there are awesome. 4.50 for the many types of fried rice. 4 bucks for a very generous serving of curly fries :) and 4 bucks for a really talllllll ice-blended. hehe. 

and, old westlife karaoke videos playing in the background. AND, we gots monopoly deal! :)
gideon, clement, me, matthew, jess, nick, adrian, and my sister. :)

walked back to the hotel. my old woman of a sister went back to sleep. we went to gideon's room. for don't know what.... er. dunno? we played some sims 3 on matthews bigass laptop. and then some fighting game. i guess it was late and i was kinda tired....

went back to my room at about...12.30 to 1.00 something somewhere there. sarah and steph not in! lol. then they came back and then came in and screamed cause they didn't expect me to be there. lol. 

we slept ACROSS the beds, yes, not vertically. haha. and not facing the windows cause they're scared. and we left the bathroom light on. cause they're scared. haha.

set alarm for 6.40. i'm so awesome that when it rang, instead of snooze i pressed dismiss. woke up at 7.20 and freakkkeeedd out. rushed. bitterly cold. bathroom bitterly cold. 

reached the hall late. embarassing lah. haha. i thought i was the last one. 10 minutes later, jess, my sister and cae me walked in. muahaha.

sessions were good :) and worship good too :) i was extremely sleepy sometimes. but when i was awake i really was listening.

erm. had a good 365 session.

free time. dawdling in the room. supposed to go off with the family to old town kampar but they left without us. haha.

went to aj's room. we also went to get bubble tea again. haha.

we played more monopoly deal. and this cute game called bohnanza.

then the night session. and then went back to the room and mati-ed for awhile. sarah and steph went out first so yeah i had some alone time :)
air con, comfy bed, tv :)

then went with nick to the mamak to find everybody. at 10.30
wargh there were flies everywhere! D: everywhere. we changed to sit outside, and it was just the same!
lol. so i went back to the lobby cause it was so geli and had i eaten anything, it would be a start of another unnecessary phobia.

used the wifi in the lobby for awhile. and then zhe kai came! :D at 11.
i miss him alot. :(
we walked to mcD. which was packed. with students -_- i belanja him a chocolate sundae.
then we walked to his er, house? hostel? about 15 mins walk lah. got alot of things to talk also mah. haha.

then saw his room D: which is small. and hot :( and quite sad looking. but i don't want to discourage him anymore okay D:

then he walked me back. another 15 mins. reached back to the hotel at abt 12.30?

back to the room. sampats were there lah of course :D
i washed my hair! :D

note to self:
i usually don't bring conditioner on holidays or camps cause they're a hassle and i dont usually have small bottles of it. and my hair suffers D: from all the air con or sudden change in weather. so this time i just brought the whole fat bottle of it, and it really makes a difference! i loooov my hair. lloooov it soooo much. haha.

slept at 1.30. sarah and i sang the belle song and be our guest to sleep. I NEEDDDD! SIX EGSS! haha.

woke up in time the next day thank God. so early in fact i had time to pack some stuff first :) and gobble down some of the sampats' pringles.

breakfasts at the hotel is quite awesome :) to me lah anyway. cereal and milk, and toast. and eggs :) and orange juice. mmmmmmmm.

last session :) and then lunch. and then pack! or was it pack first then lunch? D:
i think so far i have not left anything there. that i have realized yet.

we and the ng's then went to visit the utar campus. it's bigg :O and everyone cycles everywhere. a few scooters too! sexyyy :)

um. but that's about it.

then we went to old town kampar to tapao the curry chicken wrapped in bread thing? i just ate that for dinner, er, it's not really nice o.O

then ice kacang. which isn't very nice either?

then home. slept the WHOLE way. came home and slept more. sigh.

i think that's it. haha.
