What We Did in Taiping

For the past 2 weeks in Taiping [2 Sept - 16 Sept], I had quite some fun with the people apart from the boring talks and lousy food provided. Here's a little summary, let's skip the boring part aye?

1. Shopping

Shop! Shop! Shop till you drop!

Nah, we just bought some necessities and some chewies to keep us awake in class. We went to Tesco Taiping on the 3rd night there.


Everyone of us bought a big bottle of water because water is not provided to us unless you want to collect from the sky. [Taiping is ever raining if you didn't know that]


Another favourite destination is The Store! I think there're a few The Store's in the small town itself.



2. Eat

Here comes the main part, eating...

We will get out of Multimedia College [MMC], the place we stayed whenever we had the chance. Once we're out of the jail, we hunt for food!

Our first dinner outside MMC is KFC. We were like small kids who were so excited to see crispy fried chickens.


In the following days, we had pizza...



noodles...



westerns...


and cheap chinese delicacies...

Char Kuey Tiaw for RM2.20 and double the size in KL

3. Play

What's life without playing?

Volleyball is the only fun activity we can have inside the MMC campus.

Bad luck me, I sprained my right ankle on the last Friday there while playing volleyball, and I became the centre of attention to hundreds of people there. =\



We saw a bowling centre after having our lunch outside on the first Saturday there. So we head on to play a couple of games. Oh, Mikey's good at this...


Our all time favourite night activity, play Counter Strike in cyber cafe! I was so happy to see a cyber cafe after our dinner...


The girls were a little reluctant to play with us at the beginning but I was shocked to see them getting better and better each day! ChiaPoh even asked us to play again after our first round of game.



4. Sleep

Sleeping covers most of our free time, when we're not doing the things listed above.

Sleep in class...


Sleep while waiting...


Sleep after meals...


Sleep when you feel like it...


And of course we sleep at night.

Ah, I feel that my whole 2 weeks wasted just like that. But at the same time, I feel lucky to join the programme coz' this is my first time visiting the town of Taiping, learnt new stuffs, met new friends.

Well, that summarized pretty much everything I did over there. I will post more about Taiping soon. Billy, out.
