my remaining days in Kampar

carved uni name on the stone indicating the entrance of UTAR
on my way back after having attended some workshops
manage to capture this photo of this man
i guessed he retired and enjoying his golden age with his hobby, fishing
life has treated him good, i guess
very quiet, calm lake


cumulonimbus clouds
indicative of thunderstorm conditions


Dao Dao
Miin's toiletmate's toy poddle
this little bitch manage to capture her little prey
she is very cute n agile
pathetically, she has this plastic trumpet around her neck
as to prevent her from scratching he bruised neck


very friendly to strangers
very diff from other dogs, i hv never hear her bark
haha

1st day in Kampar

5pm, i remembered
clear clouds at 1 side of the sky
gradient colour of blue to yellow
however, colours changing hue
dark heavy clouds started to clot the evening sunlight
in UTAR, most roads has a bicycle lane along the road
those house facing us, r called "Oxford"
try to spot Shaeu Miin... haha : )

We parked our bike for a stroll in the park
hoping there wouldn't be any down pour with our fingers crossed
very peaceful scenery, huh?

walk along this pavement,
u will reach UTAR campus
most people here cycle to skul...
lotus
n deep in the mud, is our lotus-root..
i only know that whn Miin told me
haiz... love lotus-root soup so much, but dun even noe where it originated from
haha


some parts stil under construction
to accommodate more students
foresee Kampar to be a vibrant place in the near future

take a deep breath
this view sets my mind to wander far away
close my eyes, imagine...
let the breeze bring my best wishes n feelings to...
it consumed all my feelings
Stop fantasising!! come back to reality!!
hv always like bamboo,
especially drawing it using chinese caligraphy
hmm.. i miss how i used to draw it when i was 13-14
drizzles set us back to Miin's house
yet, the sky remained beautiful
as though holding back its tears
waiting for us to reach home safely
before scattering huge rain drops

layered clouds in maroon haze
hope shines thru to those who gaze
set my heart ablaze
may my future be embraced

My journey up to Kampar

It was 7:45am
v(my parents n i) departed our house.
The sun beam was cheerful,
perhaps indicating a wonderful, memorable trip?
oopppsss, this is Old Klang Road.
and a very frequent scene in all KL roads... TRAFFIC JAM..
Arghh...
That is my dad's patient hand controlling the steering wheel..

At 8:30, arrival at KL Sentral.
See the heavy human traffic at the escalator goin up to the KL Sentral Putra LRT?
The ppl v r seeing here, near to us, r those taking KTM(Keretapi Tanah Melayu) via
KL Sentral--Ipoh route to their individual destination
The guy with a turban and his wife were the passengers who sat in front of me in the train..



Oh yeah, my train departs at 9am,
but bcos v hv to alight the train 30 mins b4 departure
the limited time made my parents packed McDonald's breakfast
as that morning's stomach filler.
Yummy... Sausage McMuffin...
(think McD should pay me some advertising fees for giving good comment on their product)
; )

En routed some small town..
I think this is somewhere near Sungai Buloh


Another small town..
Typical rumah papan...
relaxing scenary
should be in Tanjung Malim...



I finally reached my destination--Kampar..
see the reflection of the girl wearing black? That is me..
n this is KTM train.. quite laid back, huh?!


A better view of Kampar railway station.
No hussle-bussle, relaxed walking pace
there is no way u can find this phenomena in Singapore...


A photo taken from the railway station
Panoramic view of the hilly mountain range
cloudy yet clear n bright sky
Kampar is a nice place...
An escape from KL and also Singapore...
the idea of me going back to Singapore actually haunts me.. Haiz...
rejuvenate my mind, Kampar



Our big bath tub


We proudly present our family's yeye, Kuang Zi Hau.
Not bad looking leh?! too bad, he is already under the status "not available".



欣馨之战



Me and Shin..



Attempting "水side"


Two sister



Shin, Fei, n me (from left)


Due to the unbearable hot weather
swimming has become one of our favourite sports besides eating
with us being oblivion to our new hobby

i guess, this is the last time for this back-to-KL holiday, i will be swimming in
Bukit Jalil's national Aquatic Centre's pool
captured some photos for our future reminiscence
: )

Ever wondered y v call it bath tub?
It is because many of us in our "family" dunno how to swim,
but still like to hang in the swimming pool
to submerge themselves in the chlorinated water
haha..

No boundaries

I hv been infatuated by this song for quite some time
it has given me strength and motivation
for me, 2 American Idols sang it well
but, personally, i prefer Kris Allen version (acoustic)

Second, hours, so many days
You know what you want but how long can you wait
Every moment last forever if you feel you've lost your way
What if your chances are already gone
Started believing that I could be wrong
But you give me one goos reason
to fight and never walk away

Cause here I am----- STILL HOLDING ON!!
Every step you climb another mountain
Evry breath its harder to believe
You'll make it through the pain (ot through all your aches and pains)
Weather the hurricanes
To get to that one thing

When you think the road is going nowhere
Just when you've almost gave up on your dreams
Then take it by the hand and show that you can
There are NO BOUNDARIES (x2)

I fought to the end to stand on the edge
What if today is as good as it gets
Don't know where the future's headed
Nothing's gonna bring me down

I've jumped every bridge and I've run every line
I've risked being saved but I always knew
I always knew why

So here i am still holding on
Every step you climb another mountain
Every breath is harder to believe
You'll make it through the pain
Weather the hurricane
To get to that one thing

When you think the road is going nowhere
Just when you've almost gave up on your dreams
Then take it by the hand and show you that you can

You can go HIGHER
You can go DEEPER
There are NO BOUNDARIES
Above and beneath you
Break every rule cause there's nothing between you and your dreams

Every step you climb another mountain
Every breath is harder to believe
Yeah......

There are NO BOUNDARIES
Every step you climb another mountain
Every breath is harder to believe
You'll make it through the pain

Weather the hurricane
There are NO BOUNDARIES (x3)
