My family probably has some history of son against dad rebellion. When my dad was young, grandad would bring him along on his gambling trips. My dad , of course, would get very resentful and I don’t know what kinda adventures he would come up with.

Of course, my dad would soon do the same thing to me. Meaning that whenever he goes back to hometown, he would force me to go. And wait around while he gambles. It’s really funny how things comes around full circle , isn’t it ?

This year, I chose not to wait around, and wanted to back a little earlier from my hometown. So I took the bus home from Negeri Sembilan ! And don’t worry , my dad consented to this , so it’s not really a full fledged rebellion.

So begins , my little adventure:

First , my dad dropped me at Bahau town bus station. I looked for the smelliest and smallest bus there. JUST for the experience. It started raining lightly, which made the bus trip seem more special. I don’t know how to describe it.

It’s been a year, I’ll show how my eyes look like.

What most of my hometown look like, rubber plantation and palm oil trees.

I arrived at the Kuala Pilah bus station, where Tsuqi and boyfriend came to pick me up.

Tortoise soup. Tortoise tastes like pork to me. Tortoise you know ! Not endangered species like turtle okay !

From Kuala Pilah, there were no buses to Kuala Lumpur direct. So I had to take a bus to Seremban first. As you can see, the bus is very crowded, and I had to stand up for 2 hours in a traffic jam. Standing in between 2 guy’s armpits. Yeah, this is the worst part of my adventure.

I finally reached Seremban. Tried to shop for some shirts, but found nothing nice. I took the nicest bus to KL from there though. I can’t stand the smelly busses anymore.

The nice bus arrived at Central Market in KL. Bought some nice bracelets. Shufen picked me up later on.

I finally reached home ! I was greeted by neighbour’s doggies, Milo , Schnooty and Cookie. Peanut should be around somewhere there too.

I left Bahau at 1:00pm and arrived at my house at 6:30pm. The journey took much longer than expected (of course , I stopped by Kuala Pilah for an hour or two ). The whole journey cost less than Rm10.

Was the journey worth it ? You bet it was. Sometimes, people should take the long scenic route. And rebel once in a while ^_^
