*Just received an sms from Mum, going to JB tonight. Danga Bay has a pasar malam! Woohoo*
Sorry for digressing...
Woke up around 9 plus this morning. Didn't know what to do. And come to think of it, I really missed the life in KT. Totally missing it. Waking up damn early, breathing in 'rather' fresh cooling air, looking forward to a scrumptious breakfast, chit chatting with all the cousins... and the list goes on and on... Since the time I came back, which was last Thu, I haven't uploaded any pics. So here goes... tgt with some illustrations too.
Terms of reference: Koh - what we call auntie. En Tio - what we call uncle. (What we call them still depends on the ranking la...)
then there's 3 brothers: 1st - Chia Yau 2nd - Chia Ming 3rd - Chia Liang
We went to a place called 'Horizon Hills' on the way up to KT. Kor Chia Yau had to go settle his new place. Signing of forms and so on. The place as you can see, is really beautiful. Windy. View was great. Cost quite a bit too...
Pool was greater...!!!
That's the family... From left: In pink (Jie Jessica), red (Koh), hidden behind Koh's hand (Chia Liang), black (Jie Joanna ) and last but not least, grey stripped (Kor Chia Ming).
♥ them loads...
Must be wondering what we're eating right?!
It's something so good, you cannot find it like that in Singapore! On a hot afternoon, this is the dessert that will make you melt...
CHENDOL!!!
I had this when I was much younger in M'cca, and it was by the road side too! From the house, I had to walk down a whole stretch of road just to get to the stall. But the rewards were great!
They had their own brand of Ramli burger there too. They call it 'Isa burger'. I think the guy was called Isa. Haha! But the burger totally rocks man~! Damn juicy and there's lots of sauce. Super nice. (Liang could see that I was snapping him... but I was actually snapping the stall...)
This was next morning's lunch. Hakka noodles. Another super nice thing to try when visiting KT.
Together with the noodles, comes soup and some other ingredients.
Yummmmmmssss...
The house from the top. That's their cars.
From far end: En Tio's Volvo, their Hilux and Koh's City... The last lot at the far end is used when Kor Yau comes back from SG.
All the cousins...
If you're wondering how come their house is so big, well lemme tell ya.
Their place is actually 2 houses broken into 1... so that means they have 2 car porches... 2 so-called balcony area, 2 gardens (1 on each side), 2 living rooms, 6+1 bedrooms, 4 toilets, 1 kitchen, and the other kitchen converted to a gym... ☺
We celebrated Jie Joanna's birthday there. All were caught by surprise cos I think Jie Jess told ask Koh whether can buy cake to celebrate anot. Haha! I was totally caught off guard. Wanted to eat a slice of fruit but then had to put it back down to go take camera... ☺
When we're so bored, we slack in the office... and I introduced this website to them! To relieve our memories... can you see what game Kor Ming is playing??
Make a guess...
Those at my age will know...

Super Mario!!!
Hehehe... this really bring back good memories...
We were suppose to come back on 24th Nov (Tue), but since we had nothing to do in SG, and that we can spend more time with the family, we came back on the 26th (Thu). So on Tue, we send Jie Jess to City Square for her to go back to SG cos she had an interview the next day.
After that, we had lunch at Old Town. Nice chill out place. My cousins... Liang and Kor Ming...
A pic of Chia Liang for his new Facebook profile. Haha! That boy has FB, but no profile pic. So I forced him to get one. Not bad what~
Lunch pics: My Iced White Coffee
The Assam Laksa really rocks! Seriously... cannot get this in SG...
Liang's strawberry toasted bread
Kor Ming's 'something' Hor Fun... cannot remember the name la.
NOW... to digress a little from the food...
One evening... we were in the office, doing up the FB thingy for Liang and we came across this mosquito that was flying around the room. I was quite pissed off by it cos it keeps on flying around my our faces... so you can imagine how we keep on swatting the mosquito...
And the worst thing is that you can't smack it... it's really smart... or we're really stupid... but it was late at night, so our senses were not so alert anymore. Sleepy what... so anyway, it started biting us, esp our legs... I got so pissed seriously...
Then the next evening... when it flying around the walls... I picked up an envelope, swing it around, and I finally got it... it hit the wall, got stunned, then it was lying on the ground... before it could fly again, I smacked it with the side of my hand and taa dah...!!!
I GOT IT!!!
It may seem gross but you have got no idea how irritating this mosquito was!!!
Hahaha!
That morning, Koh steamed corn for us to eat for breakfast too... so that night, Jie Jo was hungry, so she decided to have to corn as snack...
While I was talking to Chia Liang, I realised that she was still peeling the corn... and peeling... and peeling... I was really wondering what's taking her so long to eat that damn corn... and you know what?!
She was peeling the corn like this...
FUNNY RIGHT?! I was laughing till I forgot to breathe... No wonder she took so long la! I grabbed it, tore the sides down, and broke it off...
and then, "NAH!! Your corn la... you can START eating it now...!!" ☺
To sum it all up, the whole trip was really enjoyable, late nights watching DVDs (they really have a lot of DVDs man! Albums and albums of it... cos it's so cheap there!), late nights in the office playing games, computer, joking and laughing out loud, sitting outside by the porch to chit chat and laugh out loud also, played card games and using Monopoly money as bet...
SO FUN!!!
Oh ya... we even had our own production of short videos... Check it out...
