You aint never been on a REAL road trip before

Trust me, you havent. At least not unless you've been on one with me and Tatt. Here's a bit of introduction (Last time someone who read this thought that Tatt was my previous school). Tatt is a big guy we call Phat Tatt who looks like one of those creatures from the Planet of Apes. He loves to cuss and show the universal hand signal. All his bad ways aside, he's a real great cook (trust me, I've tasted some stuff) and he's studying some culinary diploma and loves to eat Char Siu.

So anyway the both of us planned to go over to Kampar to see Chew (privacy protected in case any more weird guys disturb her). We holla-ed at KC and Dan and Shan but none of them could come. KC said he had to take care of his house and Dan had class (physics) and Shan said he's going to Penang with Mitleshwaran (his lil bro) and even if they weren't his parents wouldn't allow him. Of course, no one's parents would allow it. That's why Tatt and I just asked permission to go out without telling where XD

So we were travelling on the freeway (pretty smooth drive) until the Taiping highway before we took a break (my Kancil 660 had been going around 120km/h for the last 90 minutes and it was starting to feel powerless). After a 30 minute break (and a lot of Tatt's sandwiches) we made our way to the Ipoh Highway. Then everything started to go wrong lol.

Chew gave us a call and Tatt passed the phone to me, who was driving, and caused me to miss a turn and I was bz talking, n missed another turn, and I drove into a tol (thought there was a U-turn there) which prompted us to drive against the flow of traffic (try to beat this, theres even a video of it) before taking another wrong turn and almost going to Sitiawan (Yay! Fuzhou territory!) and finally an old man at the Caltex station gave us directions to the highway. Turns out we weren't suppose to exit the highway yet. So anyway we turned out, then went ahead and turned into the Tambun exit (We got scared when we saw "Cameron Highlands: 2km") and made a turn and came out (Chew was like, WHAT HOW DID YOU GUYS END UP THERE???)

So anyway we finally found our way to the Gopeng exit (didn't expect it to be THAT far). The entire trip there was more than 3 hours (30 minutes was used to find our way when we were lost n another 30 minutes 4 a rest at Taiping). Met up with Chew at the Pasar Malam. Tehn after walking around (I actually saw a girl who looked like Chew Yi! Except that this girl was plump. Would look exactly like Chew Yi if taht girl lost some weight). After that we went to Chew's house (Wow 3 storey corner house! But she isn't the owner, she's just renting a room lol). Then we chatted and chatted and la la la all about our old days and friends. Chew had this Hello Kitty bed sheet with the words "Dear Daniel" printed on it. N I was like wow you do miss Dan dont you XD

So we stayed and chatted til 10pm (Chew's classmate came midway to take a bag and he look too afraid to come in. Must be because of the presence of an ape). And boo-yah, we were off, speeding thru the night. I loved the downhill part near the Ipoh tunnel. 120km/h without acceleration babe! WOOT~!

Well I reached home at 12:30am. Really tiring, but a great day. Should do it again some time n mayb stay overnight at Kampar XD
