Midnight Cruise....Chow Kit and Steamboat

Left home around 12:30am for midnight cruise around the city with my mom in search for banana...sounds silly eh? Actually Abah wanted banana...Mak wanted to see Chow Kit at night and I craved for steamboat near the MARA building at Jalan TAR. Perfect timing for everybody.
First stop : Chow Kit - Mak bought Banana, Sukun, Mata Kucing, Grapes and juicy bell fruit (Jambu merah macam loceng tu).

Next stop : Jalan TAR - So happy when I saw the steamboat stall still there...yeay! at the same place. But then in front of me...I looked at the construction site of a place where my old college building used to stand...it almost brought tears to my eyes. Almost every night I hung out with my dear friends at a food center called Medan Selera Mara (MSM) situated just next to the steamboat stall...Ahhh....sad...so sad sob sob sob...the place gone too.

So many wonderful memories. Akademi Infotech MARA, an institution where I found my strength, built my confidence, alowed me to explore world beyond my own country and most importantly changed my life path and my personality. It was the place I where I came back to my root...mixing around with malay friends and made few life time friendships along the way.

Next stop : Around Jalan Sultan Ismail, Jalan Conlay to Jalan tun Razak. THen to Jalan Maluri and back in Cheras. Drove around the neighbourhood...at 2am only few houses still bright and noisy but most of the houses were quiet like any other day. No usual CNY sounds of mahjong and drunken groups outside these houses discussing business and stuffs.

Feeling sleepy now...so nite nite or ning ning to you...jo tau...joi geen...
