2nd gathering-Part One:Johor游荡记


很快的,第二年的聚会又到来了。跟往年不同的是,今年我是从槟城坐长途巴士下去柔佛的。漫漫长夜独自坐在巴士上,深感光阴似箭,我们这样的一年一次的聚会还能持续多久呢?坐了九个小时半的巴士,虽感疲惫,可是一想到又可以再跟forever friends的朋友“lepak JB” ,心情倍感喜悦。
下了巴士后,我随着fungai往她的宿舍去洗漱,等待“虾米”从新加坡过来。

The day before the trip 6/7/2013
第一站:山番王
好久没回来JB了,为了填饱肚子,我、fungai、“虾米”、old man和玛莉五人两辆车朝士古来皇后(Tun Aminah)的山番王(savage Restoran)出发。由于经宝很忙,待我们都吃饱后,她才姗姗到来。
话说,这里的食物味道还不错。最值得推荐的就是山番王的海鲜番茄面。喜欢海鲜料理的人必定会对这碗面赞不绝口。满满一大碗的虾和蛤蜊,哇,真是丰富!Fungai吃得津津有味,我还有口福吃到她帮我剥壳的虾呢!


海鲜番茄面

第二道推荐的美食正是山番王的招牌叻沙啦!还没上桌前,我还以为这道食物类似我家乡(槟城)的asam laksa,谁知道它却是我最爱的咖喱面!(我真是被名字给骗了,槟城人若有机会光顾此店,记得要分清楚哦!)浓浓的咖喱味再配上咖喱面该有的椰浆味,它正是我最爱的食物。原本我想跟玛莉交换食物的,可是“美女”不夺人所好,还是尝尝一口算了吧!

招牌叻沙


因为被‘咖喱’这个字眼所吸引,我就点了山番王的咖喱干捞面。说实在的,咖喱味道还好,本人还是比较喜欢槟城的咖喱面。(我的嘴原本就比较挑食,很少会有食物是值得我赞为好吃的)喜欢干捞面的人可以试试这道食物。

接下来old man点了山番王的特色咖喱鸡饭。咖喱味道跟我的食物有点相似,所以我认为还好,并不是我的最爱。
特色咖喱鸡饭
还蛮多鸡肉的!


最后,我们还点了一道小吃来尝尝。味道不错,不会太油腻,而且又有玛莉爱吃的蛋,值得一尝。(忘了拍照)

至于饮料呢,其他人叫了普通的饮料,就不用多介绍了。(实际上,我忘了她们的饮料的名字了)






而我呢,就点了山番王自煮的甜品-白果腐竹玉米。喝上去味道还过得去,甜度刚刚好。






第二站:“员工宿舍”
事隔一年,我又回到了old man的“员工宿舍”。今年的“员工宿舍”比往年还要热闹,因为多了调皮捣蛋的“虾米”和特地从Sarawak Kuching飞来聚会的秀芬。少了男朋友在身旁的“虾米”犹如从牢笼里被释放的野猫,非常38,喜欢玩弄身旁的每一个人。由于太久没见了,我们几人在房间里从南聊到北,再从西聊到东,像足了三姑六婆。

七位三姑六婆

三姑六婆的‘家庭会议’


The day (7/7/2013)
sibu islandferry一天只有两趟:早上11:30或者下午4:00,未免错过了最早的ferry,住在“员工宿舍”的六人七早八早就起身准备。可是,我们当中还是有很‘摸’的人,最后我们比约定的时间迟了半小时,害经宝和大佬七早八早就在家等待我们的到来。

出发前的‘丑样’


接了经宝和大佬后,我们八人两辆车浩浩荡荡地朝Tanjung Lemanjetty出发。

八人两辆车~出发咯!


Tanjung Leman的路上,我们连续迷了几次的路。沿路上,Fungai一直在车上骂为何去Tanjung Leman的路牌那么少(整条路,路牌五只手指都数的完),再加上又接收不到GPS,我们真的快抓狂了。

少到可怜的路牌

幸好,就在我们“走投无路”时,大佬金睛火眼瞄到路旁有间杂货店(今天关店),于是他便下车去向杂货店隔壁的屋主问路。短短的几分钟,大佬不止向uncle打听到了怎么去Tanjung Leman的路,还得知了uncle已经在那儿住了四十年,而且几乎每一天都有人向他询问去Tanjung Leman的路(看来有不少人遇到和我们一样的问题)
我们沿着uncle准确的导航(就连几分钟会遇到红绿灯都精准无误)。总共走了约两个小时的路程后,我们终于顺利抵达Tanjung Lemanjetty

我们把车停在靠近KFC的停车场。不知道踩了什么狗屎运,好撞不撞,竟然撞见Johor Sultan莅临Tanjung Leman,害我们虽然已经付了RM4 (a day per car)Parking Fee,还得把车停在很远的地方去。

Sibu Island的船票还蛮昂贵的。一趟需付RM35,来回总共付了RM70.

昂贵的船票




后记:去Sibu Island时,我们乘坐名为Pelican的轮船。里头的冷气简直就是摆美的,热得我们就像坐在sauna room里一样。

拥有sauna room ‘美名’的Pelican



第三站:Tanjung LemanKFC
饥肠辘辘的我们买好ferry票后,不管三七二十一就朝临近的KFC冲去。这是一个靠海的KFC。透过窗口,可以看见来来往往的ferry。在那儿用餐的人大多数都是在等待ferry到来的游客,就跟我们一样。

海边的KFC


yummy~

Forever friend~1st gathering

6/7/2012 ( Friday )

Today, I am going to Johor Bahru alone to meet with my "forever friend" 38 friends. I am so excited. After work, I immediately drove back to house. When I reached home, it already almost 1p.m. In order to 'chase' Rapid KL, I immediately took my luggage and rushed to bus station which is located around 5 minute away from my house.

Around 1.15p.m, Rapid bus finally arrived. In the bus, I happily enjoy my lunch-bread while waiting for the bus to reach KTM station. My mood 180' change when the bus reach the main road of Seri Kembangan. The road is terribly jam. OMG!! At that time, I started to worry I will miss out the train. While stuck in the traffic jam, I have some nap in the bus. It took around 1 hour only reach KTM Serdang.

2.19p.m I finally reached KTM Serdang. I started to feel relieve when I saw the train schedule showed that the train will reach around 2.21p.m. When I was buying the ticket to the station of Bandar Tasek Selatan, I heard the operator announce that the train is arriving. That time, I was very shocked!! What the h***, the train reach early and didn't follow the schedule. Without wasting of time, I immediately cross over the bridge to the other side of station. Thank God, I managed to run into the train few seconds before the door is closed. 


Around 2.30p.m, the train reached station of Bandar Tasek Selatan. After renovation, now the station of Bandar Tasek Selatan looks like airport. It is too big already and I am lost. I started searching for the way to the bus counter. On the way, I asked the operator and guard for the direction ( I am 路痴嘛!). Thank God, I found the bus counter in the other buildings. I bought 3p.m bus ticket to Skudai, JB. I was shocked when the operator ask my name when I bought the ticket. That time I was thinking :" since when buy bus ticket need to tell operator my name?"  Below is the bus ticket I bought. Almost the same with the flight boarding pass.

Bus ticket that need passenger name


At 6.30p.m, I reached Sri Putri. Foon Yee was playing basketball at that time. (╯﹏╰)Because of this, I 'laogai' with her for a while ~\(≧▽≦)/~啦啦啦
After that we went to May Peng's 员工宿舍. Before reach there, I thought it is a very lousy apartment, who knows~~( ⊙ o ⊙ )!WOW!!This is not normal 员工宿舍,it is like hotel!

Air-con room with heater in the toilet.

Like what I have expected, two 'protected species' sure will bring along their favourite chao chao =.="

May Peng's chao chao


My dinner was delicious BBQ satey, golden fried rice and 老鼠粉。I like the satey and fried rice. (¯﹃¯)口水
However, the 老鼠粉 is not as nice as the Serdang 老鼠粉。
At night, I received the message from Jing Bao said that she is not joining this gathering. That time I was very disappointed. I am looking forward to this gathering since few months ago.The absent of few members really made me feel so sad.



7/7/2012 (Saturday)

According to the schedule, we should depart on 8.00a.m. Well, some of us quite 'mo' (including me), eventually 8.07a.m we only start the car to Sutera Utama eat breakfast.

Second Destination~ Botak Curry Mee

This place is very hard to find. It is located nearby the roadside. We took around half and hour to find this place. Thanks to aunty at the Hardware store, we only know that this Botak Curry Mee has two branches, one is owned by father and the one that we went is owned by the son. 


Dry and wet curry mee

Honestly, I not really like this curry mee. 郭记 curry mee at Sutera Mall is nicer than Botak Curry Mee. For those who like to explore curry mee like me should go try 郭记 curry mee ~\(≧▽≦)/~


Third Destination~ Kluang Rail Coffee

May Peng and Malee love coffee so much. So after eat curry mee, we continue our jalan-jalan cari makan to Kluang Rail Coffee. 
Roti bakar, coffee, mee siam and half-boil egg

Fifth Destination~A Fu Satay(阿福沙爹)

Our dinner at A Fu Satay. We ordered satay (pork, lamb and chicken), hokkien mee (not Penang hokkien mee, is the black source hokkien mee )烧鱼,脆皮炸鸡,O A 煎 (donno how to write). Among these foods, I like the 脆皮炸鸡 the most. Other food still consider ok, but not the best.

Variety of foods at A Fu Satay

After dinner, we headed to Batu Pahat and overnight at Sheue Yih's house. Five girls chitchat until 1.30p.m only go to sleep.



8/7/2012 (Sunday)

First destination~Batu Pahat Breakfast

Early morning before we depart from Sheue Yih house, her bf, William already go queue up to buy breakfast for all of us. While waiting for William to come, 5 girls enjoying 贵妇 life, slowly 'tan' 咖啡 and 美禄 at one of the coffee shop (I have forgotten the name of the coffee shop already). This coffee shop is very different from those that I ever been to. This shop allows the customer to bring outside food. The owner even prepare spoon and fork for customers to eat outside food.  Besides this unique service, the egg and roti bakar there taste very delicious. Our roti bakar 王(Fungai) also praise the roti bakar. 

When we finish our roti bakar and egg, William finally come. He bought mee and yam rice for us to try (I have forgotten the actual name of the food already). Both foods are delicious, we eat till very full. 


Batu Pahat delicious breakfast


Second Destination~Hutan Lipur Soga Perdana

Fungai keep saying wanna go hikking, so William brought us to this place. Instead of hikking, I should say we just climb the stairs.

~Hikking~

Malee 加油!

Waiting for us to take some rest

Wow, she finally make it!!

Second Destination~BP Mall & PC Fair

We went there for some shopping. Hehe, actually I am the one who managed to bought something. I bought a handbag for my mom and 8GB pendrive at PC Fair. The pendrive only costs RM13 and have 5 years warranty.


Third Destination~宝石茶餐室

I like the 面粉糕 there. It is really 够味。Surprisingly is, our antivege~Malee even add extra vegetable for her 面粉糕. It seems like May Peng really influences her alot in eating vegetables.

delicious 面粉糕


Fourth Destination~U Dessert

U Dessert reminds me of DURIAN!! The durian dessert there terribly SMELLY!! For those who love durian, this is a good place to fulfill your durian needs. But, for those who hate durian, this is your 'graveyard'. The whole shop full of durian smell, make me feel like wanna vomit ~.~""


Final Destination~Home

Time flies~After U Dessert, it is time for us to go back to own work, study and REALITY!!
I am very enjoy this gathering. We even suggested next year gathering might wanna go to an island or Malacca. Really looking forward to the next year second gathering. Hopefully next year all of our 'forever friend' members will able to make it. 



~语录~

时光飞逝,犹如过隙白驹,眨眼间一年又过去了。
当年的悠闲已不复存在,人人都为了各自的前程奔波劳碌。
为了与当年的38友相聚,众人都不惜抛下肩上的负担,高高兴兴地赴约。
每一年的聚会象征了我们的友情,也意味着我们的坚持,
但愿我们的友情能像我们的组名‘forever friend' 如此永久。
