That day marked out second, final, and heaviest assignment ever. 2 articles, 1 photo essay, 1 video and 1 food review. If you had counted the group presentation later that night then you'll have to add in 1 performance as well.
The high point is that they brought us to Kuala Kangsar. While other groups went to see how the rebana and labu sayong is made, we got the entire old town to scout for interesting shops. Let the pictures do most of the talking. Thank you, Caryn, the photographer of the day!XD
After hours of interviewing, our lunch became our subject for the food review. The cendol was good and supposedly the laksa too. Knowing that many would stimulate their taste buds with the same food, it was thrilling to find a good road stall with something different. The rojak sauce was lip-smacking!
The highlight? There were truly wonderful characters who welcomed us with smiles, most of which were ready to give us a hand, some extremely enthusiastic and generous.
Yes, truly amazing characters there.
And I don't just mean the locals.
Thank you, Janice, for the lift to Perak, and the wonderful companionship, and for reminding me that I've a little 'evil' side waiting to ...hehehe...
And thank you, Radhika and Chelsea, for being such sweet room mates who would help buy labu sayongs and keep tiny secrets. I'll keep in touch, promise!
Sure, we had to rush through the pile of workload until 11pm. The group presentations were diverse and made my tummy roll about with laughter. I can't wait to show you the "Algorithm Match" video too. You'll love it!
Leaving was hard. Just so hard. And it was a long way back.
PS. My photo with the 'Green' theme. Suits the end of this post, don't you think?
