Post PMR Program - Exploring Kuching

I like Kuching. I have been in Kuching basically all my life, save for some vacation to some where else. But Kuching is my hometown. And it is kinda sad how sometimes, I can get lost in Kuching. :[
Kuching's most famous cat statue

So as part of my post PMR program, I decided to go explore Kuching with Michelle. (I think the school should do something like this instead of holding us into torture with their uber boring ceramahs and letting us watch traumatising videos of naked butts being whipped.)

Kuching decided to build many many cat statues to honour its name

So we started by going to play at a playground in Reservoir Park. The place where my dad claimed to have graduated from for his pak-toh-logy certificate. I haven't been there in ages! The last time I went there, I was barely higher than the swings! And now... I could barely fit into the seats of the swings. =.='' Darn you, PMR for making me so fat!

Kuching also has many cats, hence its name

We sat down and talked. Normally. Something we haven't done in ages too. =) The weather was nice. It wasn't hot or too cold. It was windy. Perfect weather to go to a park. We wanted to jog but then... PMR did us no justice. And I hate the fact that I don't have a camera phone. Or a small, slim camera. Explains why all these pictures are copycat-ed.

I don't like cats. But I touched my first last year. They're furry. =D

Anyways, after that, we went to town. Didn't go very far lah. =P But far enough to see the super colourful building in the middle of town. Crazy! Medan Pelita is like so colourful now! =.='' It looks... bleh...!

Those aren't us. =.=''

Anyways, Michelle tried to drag me to try clothes with her. I only managed to try three shirts and one pants. All were... er... let's just say they weren't me. =D And I don't know out of boredom kah apa kah, Michelle went to try on lala clothes. LALA CLOTHES! Swt! Again, I am saddened by the fact that I don't have a camera.

Kajang's Parkson. I prefer Kuching's Parkson. :D

But then, all was fun lah. It's nice to be able to breathe again. After months of suffocation. Ended up, we just went sightseeing around Kuching being one of those sakai tourists who would fascinate at almost anything. Oh yea! There were a lot of tourists walking around that day! I don't know how many ang mohs I saw! O_o!

Wah! Tua pek kong!

And after all of that walking, we got hungry. So we went to have our dosage of one of Kuching's must have and to die for food - kolo mee! There's no other place that has kolo mee as nice as Kuching's ok!

Kuching's kolo mee. The best in the world.

And that was one of our post PMR program - exploring Kuching. Way more fun than listening to talks about drugs.

And we played badminton yesterday. Now, I have muscle aches. But it's much more fun than dancing poco poco! Of all things! Poco poco! (funny name) The school had even dedicated a day for us to dance poco poco this year! What lah right!

Now that it's the holidays, I am ready to go raya visiting! All the rendangs and ketupats! =D
