Describe my hometown-Ampang

    I lived in a small town, Ampang village far from the city since I was born. I have been lived there almost 20 years. My town is such a quiet and boring place, such like a ghost place.  As my home was located near to the end of the road, there are very few cars crossing by my home. There lived many elderly people. They love to wander around the basketball court far from my house about 1km. They would like play mahjong or chatting with their friends or neighbors on the bench around the it. 

    

    Ampang is famous of the "Nine Emperor Gods Temple". There are countless devotees come to worship their Gods during the period of nine days of the ninth lunar month. My elementary Ampang was next to this temple, I used to find my new adventure tour when the worshipping began. The most exciting way is to buy some tortoise buns or watch the traditional drama.

    Many eaters also would like to taste the Ampang most famous food "Yong Tau Fu", the Hakka Chinese cuisine consisting primarily of tofu filled with ground meat mixture or fish paste. It can eaten in numerous ways, either dry with sauces or served as soup dish. Most of my distant relatives always been invited to taste the food here when they dropping by.

    I am not quite like this place as the transportation here is not too convenient. Since I was studying the high school in the city, I used to take my school buy and need to wake up before 5:30am. If I missed my school bus, I had to take 2 buses between terminals and consumed about one and half hour to arrive my school. After arriving at the bus station, I still need to walk about 15~20 minutes to my school. It was exhausting and knackered. Every Sunday, I also had to take an hour to the church in city and my most of weekend spent in my church with my friends.

    With the development of the economy, there is a lot of change in this past 2 decades.  The basketball court has been covered by a roof, a lot of eaters around the court, the Ampang has been refurnished, there is a small orphan house and a retirement home along the busy street.

    I reckon that I am not quite like my hometown, but I still want to live there when I am getting older to protect my old house. There is still has a lot of good memories to be remembered.
