Blogging again

After a long blogging hiatus i'm finally back! Haha really i've been really lazy lately . Its not that i din want to blog, its just that i lost my memory card reader for a while (searched high and low only to find it in my make up pouch a month later) and blogs are boring without pictures yeah? For me anyway since i am no literary genius. I depend on pictures to illustrate my point. So be ready for a photo blog albeit low quality pics via my cam phone.

So one month since coming back form Taiping~ and i have nothing but fond memories of the place.

I noe i had a lot of grievances for stepping foot in that sleepy rainy little town but i've really grown to love the town the weather the ppl the scenery the zoo the lakes and especially the cheap but superbly delicious food!

Pictures of the lovely place.


I even love the balcony of my nurses hostel~




We all have individual fully furnished rooms and a lounge cum dining area on each floor. Which none of us really use. But hey there's a TV. Much better than my place in Ipoh.




Just to show where the sink is.




Sorry for the haphazard way i'm showing u the pics but really too lazy to arrange la. So this is what the nurses hostel looks from the outside.




One of my last shots of Taiping.This is just outside the labour room. Even in the hospital they have this nice garden and ancient trees.




JH enjoying the lounge~




The much a waited photo of JH de lousy MA student quarters. Nasib baik he only had to stay for a week.


I had to sneak in to take these pics ler.


Talk about undercover photography.

Ha ha ha ok la not tht bad right.. except that the flooring is cement and the bed is made of spring so it creaks everytime JH turns on his bed. And Shin Chee perpetually had some red rashes on his skin since sleeping there.




Yen Ming and Shin Chee ignoring me.




Lovely tree that greets me everytime i walk back to my hostel during lunch break or when going home on time. Muahahah bliss~ Wish i could have a place to go for lunch break in Ipoh.




This is the students nurses hostel which is separated by a tennis court from our hostel.





The said tennis courts.




lots of ppl play here in the evenings.




happy shadow of me walking back to the hostel after work early on Sat and Sun mornings. (unfortunately my captain put me on 2 weekend calls) sien




Taiping Zoo- really one of the best zoos in Malaysia~ which is not saying very much
But i'd say its a very intimate kind of zoo with lots of animals lots of greenery and is pretty clean. Behold the greedy orang utan that kept asking for food.



I threw some berries hanging on a palm plant to him/her and it actually went looking for it after it hit the ground and ate it. Then he lifted those strong heavy looking arm and asked for more. Despite how ridiculous it was of us feeding berries the size of small beads to a 200 pound beast, it was really strangely fun. We even coaxed the other orang utan down from the tree with those berries ( not even sure whether those berries are edible)


Chimps on a social party.





JH posing as usual




The lovely nurses of HDU,CMW 1st and 2nd class. I tell yopu the nurses and PPK's or Taiping OnG anyway are damn good la. Efficient and hardworking. Ipoh should take a leaf from their books especially the lazy PPKs.




Rainy Taiping causing weekly floods.




I even had the chance to go on a blood donation drive at UTP Tronoh~ Damn far but the campus is really an architectural beauty.


ignore the ugly blood drive room.




One part of the campus.















This is all within one block of the huge campus and seriously my pics dun really do the campus much justice.

But i'm sure u'll agree these toilets are awesome. Like a shopping mall toilet ler. And the doors are so space agey. Who knew tucked way in a sleepy land called Tronoh there is a high tech campus in the midst.




But not very charitable ler. Only got 40 pints on blood. Probably cos the campus was so huge not many ppl knew bout the drive also. Some more its a Friday and most of the students have gone back to their hometowns. Kaka not surprising since the best shopping place they have there is .. 'The Store' they are still living in a kampung no matter how hi tech their campus is.




Phew damn long this post and i still have lots more pics. To be continued.. kaka
