Fun In Gemas

Mention Gemas and the first thing that comes to mind is trains. Gemas and trains go hand in hand like Oya and Mukah, Pedas and Linggi, Tuaran and Papar....you get the idea. 


I have always liked trains and as a boy, I'd be fascinated watching them pull into the station while blowing a lot of hot air and making a lot of noise - kind of like that brat we all know who likes to boast a lot about everything under the sun. The only thing which bugs me till this day is the idea of train spotting. What kind of a sport is train spotting? Who are the players? Who keeps track of the score? And how do you score points anyway? It is all very puzzling to me.

Anyway, when we got the chance to visit Gemas last week, it was a childhood dream come true. Unfortunately, that dream was shattered as soon as it was fulfilled. The reason being? I was told that Gemas was - contrary to the very dear belief I had held all this while - not in Johor but in fact, Negeri Sembilan.

.....

NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Still, it was fun shooting photos with the 'old train town' as the backdrop.

CL Fact: frequent train travelling might increase ur chance having iron deposit on ur contact lenses (if u're wearing one)

Jamil said...

Ms Light - That's something new to me. Might as well stick to my nerdy spectacles then. Or just go for LASIK. Haha...what say you?

LightsOfHope said...

Spectacle is good- if u'r concern w budget+like wearing stylish frame
CL is good- if u dont like playing futsal with fogging lenses
Lasik is good- if u want 2b free from the above

Lasik is bad- IF complication happens as the change will be permanent
CL is bad- high risk of infection, IF u're not practice good hygiene
Spectacle is bad- if u dont like wearing it

whatever it is,do wear sunglasses.it protects the eyes frm UV.

p/s: hope it is helpful..hehe

kite dah ade seorang pakar optometry kat sini. untuk aku yang takyah pakai spec/cl/lasik ni ade nasehat tak?

Jamil said...

Ms Light - I've made up my mind. You're the first person I'm consulting if ever I'm going to have anything done to my eyes

awerz - nasihat yang berguna untuk ko adalah 'jangan berzina mata' *huk*huk*
