Yumcha with my UPM vet friends on Sat night.. Nothing special about the yumcha.. It was just an outing to "chui sui" or blow water with my friends..
What special is the-after-yumcha-stuff.. Because Michiyo was not local (she is from Sarawak and followed Evonne back here), so I brought her to "gai - gai" around Teluk Intan. Brought her to many places around town.. Then while going around town.. many sweet memories started to come back to me..
Brought her to my secondary school, SMK Horley Methodist. It had been more than a year since I last drive past the road. Then it was like going down memory lane.. That's the place that I spent for the pass 7 years before studying in MMU. Ahhh.. The good old days.. Remembered all my "cikgu".. Studies.. St John.. Friends.. Do miss them now.. I only get to see my friends 3 times a year (Raya, CNY and during June break)
Then it was SMK St Anthony and SMK Convert. All these three schools are neighbouring schools within the same area. Oh ya. With Chinese, Malay and Christian graveyards (kubur) nearby as well. The Christian cemetery is in between my school and St Anthony school. How's that for a school? Cool huh? Eh.. now that I remember.. Alex's class was next to the cemetery during his 2 years in Form 6. Should we ask him if he hear anything weird? (I don't dare to ask!)
I don't know if it is because it was night time but me and Evonne started to share our school famous ghost story after that. My school's bengkel (workshop) was rumoured to have weird machinery sound at night. Also there are reports of weird green lights around the area. There is also a story of the teacher who committed suicide in the toilet it night.(It has since been locked and closed). Also there will be sound of a piano playing at the dewan. My school don't even have a piano! Oh ya. That was my classroom during Form 5. +.+ Don't you think that my school need Ghostbusters?
Now to our neighbouring schools. Well St Anthony is popular for its "marching" sounds at night. (bunyi orang kawad kaki) Students having camp in the school often heard of the marching sound at night. It was rumoured that it was a Japenese army camp during World War 2. Then SMK Convert is popular for its half body ghost. Yes!! Hantu Setengah Badan.. Evonne said many of her friends had seen the ghost "floating" when they held camps there. Scary huh? Thank god I never camped in the school before. Then there is also the story of her school's toilet. But she was stopped before she could finish talking. Michiyo was scared to death at that time. (Actually I am wondering if she can finish reading until this part. HAHA)
So next stop is "Shanghai Beach". It was actually a playground beside the river. That's how it got it nickname. That is the place where me and my friends used to hang out and chat at night. There was once two policemen knocked on our car window and then asked for our IC. It was dark there and there is only one girl in our group. The rest is 4 boys. So.. use your imagination what can happen in such circumstances.. Hehe. But seriously.. NOTHING bad you imagined happened. ;p
Then we just drove and drove.. explaining what is this.. what is that.. (I am practicing my skills of tourguiding ^.^) until we reached two famous brigde of Teluk Intan. One crossing the Sungai Bidor and another crossing over the railway.. Took a turn into the bridge crossing over the river. That's the place where you get to see firefly if you are lucky. (Who says you need to go to Kuala Selangor to see them?) It was also the place where me and my friends used to hang out at night after yum cha. I don't know if it is because I am old or what.. Being in such dark place really scares me. There is no light and no one nearby to help you if anything happened. I wonder how can I be so brave when I was young..
Then when we were about to reach Evonne's house, I took turn to the padang (in front of PBHP) which is a popular place to jog. That is also a place where we used to walk and talk. We didn't sit there because of the mosquitoes. So you have to keep moving to avoid them. Then I came to one conclusion.. GOD!!! When I was small.. All I know is to yumcha and chat with them. It seem like we don't have much to play. But those moments (especially after my SPM until before Form 6) were one of the best of my life.. Sweet memories.. That's why I am blogging them now.. So that I won't forget them..
Well readers, Raya is not only a holiday for you, it is also a time for you to meet up and catch up with your friends. But be wise.. Finals is next week.. ^.^
