This is the second time I attend tamu Gadang in UMS meaning that I’m a second year liao.. Tamu Gadang is held during the week long Convocation week in UMS. It is a fiesta cum food fair type of event. You will see karaoke competition, battle of the bands, some talent show, some exhibition on drugs, road safety, NGOs and GOV, and some artist performing at the final day. This year the artist is, let say, not so popular but okay la. They invite Exist to the final act. Rumours has it that UMS try to invite PETER PAN to sing some songs in UMS tamu Gadang but the price tag is a whopping RM70K. But take notes, this is a rumours only.
For me tamu gadang is all about the varieties of foods available for my ever hungry stomach. You have BBQ bontot ayam(chicken ass), BBQ chicken liver, BBQ sting ray, BBQ chicken wing (a food fair classic), keropok leko, burger (with tons of grilling style), mee goreng, soto ayam, char kui, apam balik, mee kari, nasi ayam (which taste really bad), rojak, varieties of drinks, fried ice-cream, fried human , Coffee Cap Kuda, BBQ fish and many undiscovered foods.
Sadly the sole Chinese stall there sells Halal food and OMG it’s always full. Seem to be that the proprietor is having a falling durian (durian runtuh) every year during Tamu Gadang. One really funny fact is that Sabahan doesn’t really like BBQ chicken ass (BBQCA) but we Sarawakian is the one that buying it. I bet the abang selling BBQCA is happy with it. What’s more, the BBQCA here is far cheaper than in Sarawak if your compare the quantity for RM1.
Next best thing is the char kui. The char kui here have a little twist. Unlike it’s cousins in Sarawak which usually served with porridge. Here they spread some butter and kaya on or inside it. Hehehe…. refer to picture below. I’ve never seen one in Sarawak, if you do see one please tell me.


This is hailam mee. Bought at the local friendly Café E with accompanying banana as a compliment from the café.
Somehwere in between the day:
Me: “Halo… how much this keychain?”
Sales girl 1:”This one 5.50 this one 4 this one 6.50. Buy la abang” *oh!! My… abang*
Me:”Ok… let see, *search2* I’ll take this 9 pieces and one of these. How much?”
Sales girl 1: *press press calculator*
Me: “I buy 1 more if you give me RM3 for one of these”
Sales girl 1:”Akak… dia mau RM3 untuk ni”
Sales girl 2:”Mana… *Press press calculator* Ok I’ll give you this one RM3.50 and that one RM 4.”
Me: ”OK.. “*throw in another one*
Sales girl 1: “Why you buy so many leh? For friends ka?”
Me: “Yup, I’m from Unimas visiting here for convocation. *Hold face* So I buy for friends back home”
Sales girl 1: “Ohh.. like that… Unimas convo already ka?
Me: “Yup” (FYI:They Convo before Merdeka Day)
**There you have it, how to lie to a sales girl**

Come buy reload. murah liao.. later we can waste credit voting for some a$$hole…

Owh.. not forgetting the ultimate-super-duper-powerfull Coffee Cap Kuda. I just bought one and my God they are strong. Now my head is like !@#$%^&*()@#$%^&*(….
I’m writing this entry under the coffee influence, I’m feeling nausea, drowsiness and some brain dysfunction. I just can’t think of the right word for some sentences..herghhh……. gonna sleep through it…
Just now they have this so called UMS drift demo. I missed the best part…. When I reached there, the best car already finishes drifting. I only left watching a pickup truck and one really old school car drifting. I must say, both vehicles suffer from high body roll due to soft suspension and some really bad setting. They just can’t throw the rear out because the weight transfer is so bad. Really bad. Before, they have 2 Trueno (AE85/86 maybe), Nissan S15, Toyota KE70 (Best choice for cheap drifting machine) and Proton Iswara SE (OMG!!!! Proton drifter/ass dragger) drifting.There is other cars that I can’t recall. A very good spectator’s event indeed. Hopefully next year they do it in a larger area. I suggest a touge battle downhill from the UMS water tanks.. Or some long drift from ODEC until DKP initial D style. Or just maybe I introduce some RC drifting to fellow UMS… Hoping to see more drift next year…
Tonight they have this lord of the bands final.. last night they have this EXIST singing. Security is high, sort of… Freaking full with people and tons of chicks in hotpants……………………………………………….
1am..
Just back from Lord of the bands. Duh… I’m sleepy la… tired sumore.. now listening to SOAD…. Nothing much to be shared. Only that I ate a bowl of Mee Udang for RM5… OMG damn exspensive….
End of report. Thank you for your time…
