Once upon a time there were 4 girls, Wai Han, Eveline, Tianyi and Brenda.
They study in Cedar Girls' Secondary School in Singapore. One fine day, they were told that they would be going to a little
land called Malaysia and staying in Kampong Parit Bugis. Excitedly they sat in the bus, not knowing what to expect..
When they finally arrived, there was a little 'banquet' held,
with fantastic music and the best of kueh.
They couldn't help but wonder what better things lay ahead.
To the four girls' delight, the house was a lovely
and cosy place. Inside was well furnished too, but in a manner that they had never seen before.
More charmingly new things awaited the unsuspecting girls.
The usual bulky cars were now replaced with handmade farm vehicles. The biggest discovery
they made was that delicious food tasted so much better when eaten by hand!
In wonderland, there were countless of places to visit, like the
magical golden pineapple jam pancake kingdom, the endless stream teeming with seafood and such.
However, all that travelling could really exhaust one.
Poor white rabbit Tianyi had to get some shut eye.
Worse still, it drove dreamy Brenda and mad Eveline much madder
than before.
Queen Wai Han also suffered her share when it took a toll on her
dampening her cheerful spirit.
Still, they had a ball of a time. Best of all was the great feasting
in their little chamber!
Sooner than expected, it was time to return home. White rabbit Tianyi, mad Eveline
, queen Wai Han and dreamy Brenda learnt a lot and enjoyed their stay in wonderland immensely. However,to part with the
kind,lovely and very kind people was something that pained them.
Then an idea struck them! They decided to compile their experinces
with pictures, comics and many words. This blog is their heartfelt thoughts that is dedicated to the memories
of the delighting culture, host family, food and bonding they shared- celebrating that piece of wonderland forever.

DAY 3
They four girls had to bid farewell their host family after having their breakfast. This time round, they had nasi lemak and beehoon. After so, they packed their bags and moved off to the village head's house (?). Weaving many 'byes' to Macik Ros (?).
At the village head's house (?), they played cards again while waiting for the others to arrive. At the farewell ceremony (?), all the girls from both schools, Cedar and STF, recieved a lot of hugs and presents from the villagers, which made all more unwilling to go home. In the bus, all the villagers stayed to wave us goodbye. The village head (?) and his wife went onto the bus aa they wanted to see us for the last time. The bus went off.
In the bus, everyone asked our teacher if we could continue this learning journey after examinations. On the way to Tebrau City (?), almost everyone was sleeping. They must be very exhausted after this trip. However this journey was not over without SHOPPING!
Queen Wai Han sticked a 'PIAD THANK YOU' label, which she got it after buying so much junk food, on Dreamy Brenda's back. Upon reaching our destination, we went to KFC to have our lunch. Everyone was very hungry while waiting for the food to be served. Then, Mr Ahmad, our tour guide, gave us a pizza. Everyone snatched for it. At the end, when the fried chickens were served, their stomach could not fit in anymore.
Dreamy Brenda walked around the whole mall with that label. We shopped for like 3 hours walking up and down at high speed. White rabbit Tianyi was lagged behind. Mad Eveline kept on saying ' Walk faster, must have a sense of urgency', that was what the NPCC seniors (Ma'am) always reminded the NPCC cadets. Hmm, Mad Eveline is really a good NP cadet. White rabbit Tianyi spent about 15 minutes, deciding to buy a white or black bracelet (?). Mad Eveline bought about 15 comic books back to Singapore. Told you that she is mad. Poor Dreamy Brenda and Queen Wai Han went home empty-handed. Next, we were on the bus again, heading to Tuas.
