Day 1
Reach ayer keroh around 11. Yau chong was driving super fast. Its like we use 1 1/2 hour from kl to ayer keroh *Mr Policeman, hope you din put any speed trap there!!* Den we hop into Mr Lai car and drove all the way to Jasin to find our Tai Kor!He is working in some brick factory..as a BIG BOSS of course. Had CHICKEN RICE BALL-BALL in Jonker! We ate super fast cos I think its the stomach that cause it. thanks god nobody puke for eating so fast. I think we only take 15 minutes to finish all the foods.I din noe wer're so famous that even uncle oso like to take a konica shot with us!!not bad not bad!!muahahaha..

I think chicken rice wasnt enough to fill our humongous stomach cos we end up swallowing another feast of cendols..we have mango cendols, baba cendols, and sea coconut cendols..YUMMY!!
Cendol Fiesta

WORKING TIME!! scouting around for our sites for design class. We have the Stadhuys, the Cheng Ho museum, the Fountain!!oh, and the trishaws man..and I got scolding from a weird old man at the car park..(the old man: Why why why...if u bring down the drum it might hit someone la..why why why..*fumes rising from his ears* ) Kinda scary..Den at the Chen Ho museum, there's this nyonya who works der seems to be very interested in me..I think she's a lesbian o something..kinda freak me out!!

OMG..I was half puking at that time..so scared of her..but din dare to move o shout cos she might js run n hug me anytime..GROSS..PUKE..

Then thanks to my crazy frens I was force to watch a horror movie in Mahkota Parade..PULSE..Terk chyang thinks the choreograhy was very good..and the way it conveys it's idea all was very fresh and effective..But thanks to that movie we were stuck in the in the middle of the night. We were stuck there for like more than 1 hour cos we dunno how to go out..all the fire exits were lock..all the main entrance we lock..If there were a fire..we would have all died in that dong head building. all the guard gave us different directions..11 ppl stuck in the mall in the middle of the night..damm stupid!! *Oi, mahkota parade, we can sue u for locking all fire exits do u noe that..plus, under the UBBL you are not suppose to lock all fire exits do u noe that!!DONKEY!!*


Day 2

woke up early for nyonya laksa and cendol..OOO...we had a laksa fiesta..7 bowls of baba laksa, 3 bowls of nyonya asam laksa and 1 bowl of something something..*sorry, forgot wat winston ate. It was of course another fantastic food fiesta. Then we discuss our site analysis in that shop with the chinese oldies flowing thru our ears..aww...so sweet and delightful. However, not all are discussing..some are dancing and doing some gay act in that shop..keep it up guys..muacks..haha..
Studying the menu very SERIOUSLY!!

Den we proceed to do our site analysis again..Walking around A Famosa, St Paul church, St Francis Xavier church ( St Francis Xavier is the founder of my convent sch leh, he's a great man..woooo), architecture museum..we went to talk to some baba, local traders...bla bla bla...Lazy and tired...I think i'm trying my best to act as hardworking and serious in my site analysis.but deng deng deng..failed..cos we end up fooling around!!wowowo...
Measuring the height of the stump.. using human proportion..(concept taken from the Vitruvius Man by Leonardo Da Vinci, the basic of architecture)

We had luch at "Full tank cafe" . The food was disgusting..and expensive..aii...wrong choice of shop..We're suppose to go take the town plan from some mr Latipah..but we end up drop dead in the hotel ZzZZzzZzzZzz...many snorings and oinkings..some even F1-ing..SO,...we send our energetic team to get the plans..ah boy's team went to get the plans..even though dey did go to take the plans..but they were oso some how doing some audition for Bangsar the Actors Studio. Some jumping into the Mala cca River act..I think u guys qualify for Emmy Awards also..God Job!!muahahaha..

While the actors are doing their job..We were sleeping our way thru..till it was dinner time..we went to the portugis settlement to have our dinner..which somehow turn out into a sea food dinner..we had Pepper dry crab, sambal lala, fried sotong, steam prawns and bake fish..It was tasty anyway..so no complains..huhu..we took our dinner early in order to allow our stomach to process the foods before we proceed to SATAY CELUP..haha..

It was fri night..so of course we took a nice cultural walk at Jonker Street. The jonker street in the morning is totally diferent from the jonker in the night..360 degree change!! But its interesting anyway..U can see all the lala mui n lala zai selling all the lala stuff..and some more decent ppl *who usually are the older aged ppl* selling the handicraft, painitings, and traditional stuff. There's also lot of Culture dances by the clans associations..I think its really a good place for Malaysia tourism target. It really should be conserv..dun js preserve the building..do more on conservation wei..Preserve will only make the town die faster..COnserve is going to make the town more vibrant..Anyway..its a great experience k..
