趁这次假期，我和表姐决定带几个老人家（爸妈和几个阿姨）去Sg. Klah @ Sungkai游山玩水（做孝顺女）。Sg. Klah这里最出名的就是热泉水。用这种很热很热的泉水，浸浸双脚可以消除疲劳，祛风湿等，反正就是养生啦… 所以老人家特别喜欢来这里。（我跟表姐的职责其实是当司机，载他们来的！）
热水是从泉眼导入这几个人造湖，所以可以区分不同热度的池。还有用河卵石搭成的‘石春路’Reflexology Walking Path。
没有骗你，泉水真的很热。热得可以煮鸡蛋！这个小湖就是特地给游客带鸡蛋来煮的。
人很多很多，整个泳池都挤满人。
我们的brunch…
老人家都在自得其乐，我一个人好闷，只好无聊的自拍。帽子是偷妹妹的。
来到这次一日游的重头戏（我觉得），那就是怡保旧街场的白咖啡！这间‘南香’就是著名连锁咖啡馆Old Town的Home Town。
‘新源隆’里挤满了白咖啡的Fans，找不到座位是很平常的事。跟我们搭坐同一张桌子的是一个住在怡保的uncle，他说他是‘新源隆’的常客，每天都来两次。早上跟下午来杯浓浓的白咖啡已经是他生活的一部分，而且是很重要的部分。他说‘南香’的白咖啡略甜，‘新源隆’白咖啡比较浓味。Uncle没有骗我，咖啡味真的很浓，进口时很香滑，然后有一点点Roast的味道留在喉咙。但美中不足的就是煮咖啡水不够热。我没有喝过‘南香’的白咖啡，但是如果用Old Town的白咖啡来比较的话，‘新源隆’就是我心里的No. 1。那你心里的No. 1是什么？
Kopitiam的Kopi，最佳拍档永远都是烤面包。这是很多人心里一直都不变的原则。
那几个老人家在附近买东西买傻了，我被丢弃在怡保的街头。
后来上网google一下，才发现他今年是个49岁的Uncle了… Oh Shit! 而且，原来他是香港栋笃笑的鼻祖。

睡到自然醒的时候已经日上三竿。今天我不打算出门，而是要窝在家里什么也不做. 整个下午就是在看书、看戏、看书、看戏。就这样懒到傍晚。
It is supposed to be a beautiful Saturday. Suppose to.
I woke up in the early morning and went for hiking at Bukit Jambul with my bro. The sun is bright, air is fresh and everything is so wonderful. What a good start of the day. But things started to go a little bit off track, when we try to explore another hiking path. Luckily at the end, we managed to get out from the jungle.
Then we headed to a nearby hawker stall for breakfast. I ordered a plate of economic bee hoon without chili. But the auntie gave me a plate of bee hoon, with chili sauce on it (argh…..)
We went back home then. I spent the rest of my morning time to settle the dusts in my room and the unwashed clothes (accumulated for a week). Just imagine how dusty my room was and how lazy I am in the past one week, I’d spent two hours time to clean it up =P
To keep up the good (and hardworking) mood, I headed to office at 2pm to finish some lab tests for my project. I spent almost 1.5 hours in the lab, but I just can’t get any test done. Because my board screwed up after few tests and it just died. I can’t do the code compilation/simulation either, because the software license in my PC and the lab PC are having problem. I’ve tried to access Siebel to update some customer issues, but I just can’t. The site is under maintenance. Tell me, why am I here?
So I called ah shiong and ah bee for a night out. We agreed to take a dinner together and then go for a movie. I went back home, took a bath and changed. I am supposed to pick up them at Air Hitam (I’m staying in Sungai Ara, Bayan Baru). Lesson learnt from one of the previous outings, I wouldn’t choose to take the GreenLane way to Air Hitam during Saturday evening time. Because the traffic was so so so terrible that time and I was stuck in the traffic jam for almost an hour. Therefore, I’ve choose to take the Relau way. But, who knows, there was a traffic jam there as well, without any reason (no accident, no car break-down). WHY????
At the end, I managed to pick up both of them and we headed to Gurney drive for dinner. We decided to have our dinner at Mr. Pot. After the dinner, we quickly rushed to GSC at Gurney Plaza but the tickets for Final destination are all sold out!!!! Else we have to wait until 11.40pm (Argh…..) So, we go for ‘Imagine that…’ Is a good movie though (luckily, else ah bee have to buy us supper =P).
After movie, of course I need to drop them back home before I go back to Sg. Ara. After I sent them back home, I have to drive back to Sg. Ara alone. I thought Costal way should be the fastest path at midnight, but I was wrong!!!! I should have remembered that Hari Raya is just around the corner and the police are extremely active during this period. They set road block and caused traffic jam. WHY WHY WHY!!!!!
Finally, I went through it after 20 mins jam. When I was about to reach home, it started to rain, VERY VERY heavily. And the most exciting fact is, I do not have umbrella in my car!!!! So I quickly parked my car and ran towards the gate of my house. Yes, I get wet. All wet. I took bath and sneezed for >50 times. Just right after I stepped out from my bathroom, I looked through the window and noticed that the rain stopped.
It is supposed to be a beautiful Saturday. Suppose to.
