The prezzie for Wati's B'day. Classic squeeze in Black & White Posted by Picasa

All wrapped up Posted by Picasa

Outz

You've guessed it right. Been stuck to my desk again... Busy... WIth loads of stuff going around me right now.... 2 weeks back, I went to catch Little Man with Amu... As usual, we laughed like when we were together back then in school. Then last Fri, went to Lau Pa Sat with Nor, Shimah & Wati.. Went to celebrate Wati's belated 22nd b'day. And they ALL loved their presents... Now everyone has that pic...

School's really bz. Getting LOADS of work... And the constant 'kacau-ing' that I get from Lawrence and Jun, who is acting like a 5 year old kid... Imagine a big kid asking me for Panda cookies... Yes, that's Jun for u... And as for Lawrence, he's constantly asking me wheter I'm LOST. At one point, while I was doing my calculations, I was rushing & the figure that I got from pressing the calculator turned out to be a 12 digit figure & all he did was LAUGH.. Ya I do agree that it sounds comical, u know after diligently pressing all the digits & the end answer turned out to be a 12 digit figure... And yesterday, when I looked lost because I was doing some calculations in the mist of the lecturer talking & explaining, he asked me again, "LOST?". And I said "No, I am not LOST." So that's classroom jokes that I get from these 2 guys. But nothing beats the other lady... The one who said SALES which sounded like SIAO... That is CLASSIC CLASSROOM COMEDY....

Its been fun being the baby of the class again. I mean, I'm surrounded by adults.. A huge grp of them acutally. And not forgetting the foreigners who brings with them bad behavior & ethics.. I thought I was the only one irritated by them but Lawrence was also too. Jun, well he puts things in a nice way... So, yeah.. There you go...

So, I think I better stop here...

Friends

Just finished watching The OC a few mins ago. They were talking about college applications & stuff. But on the whole, it really touched on friendship. How, a true friend, will always be true to you.

I look at the last part of the show & it really reminded me of my other 3 sistaz... The ones whom I spent 4D3N doing alot of crazy stuff in Langkawi. When I look back at those times while we were still together in school, I never really thought that our friendship had lasted this long & I pray HARD that it'll stay as long as each of us has gotten a walking stick attached to our hands. I mean, real friends stick & stay with you thru thick & thin... We sucked together after sec school & I feel that we are closer right now then back then when we were in school.. I mean, its ironic because back then, we see each other EVERYDAY & now, we only meet so very often & our friendship is ever so close...

They always say that the friends that you make in secondary school are those who'll stay with you for the rest of your life. I have to agree with that. Just look at these 3 girls. And Jo.. I mean yeah Jo & I didn't attend the same secondary school but we met in Sec 2 & has been friends since...

Just grateful right now that I've got beautiful, wonderful & amazing friends who stayed thru me all those years... Thanks alot dearies!


While driving today, I realised the meaning of having a good pick up... So here goes, I LOOOOVVVEEE manual cars.. Yes, I do love them... Because I can easily get the pick up when I'm at the traffic light. And also, the gd thing abt manual car is that the driver is in control of the car because of the gears... Driver controls the gear therefore, driver controls the speed. So if u see a 1.5 or 1.6 litre car having a fast pick-up, then you know its a manual. But if you see a 1.5 or 1.6 litre going super slow.. Like having a slow pick up, then you'ld know that its an AUTO car... And that, my dear readers, why I don't like automatic cars.... LACK IN PICK UP... Yes, I confess that I'm a thrill-seeker... No doubt about that..... Now you all know why on earth I LOVE roller-coasters....

Been BZ

Before I start my entry, my dad gave me a buzz. Asking me WHAT IS THE LASTEST FRAGRANCE FOR MEN??? The first thing that struck me was Polo Black.. And the Hugo that I really like.. And the other day, I really had a GOOD time laughing at my dad. Imagine this. My Dad, dressed up really smart & everything.. Going for a dinner at Mandrin. And walking into the music store to get DIO's latest album. For those who don't know who's DIO, its an 80's HARD ROCK METAL band... U see what I'm getting at? It really doesn't match...

Been glued to my desk all week. And at night, I've been so busy going for cultural shows etc. The word is BUSY. That's all. Nothing much...

And since I've been glued to my desk with school load, I've not gotten the time to go for my 3 km walk from East Coast. Yes, I'm that busy. When I was in Langkawi, I'm just grateful that I've done my walks often before leaving for Langkawi because when I was there, we had to do this walk. More of a HIKE. The hike is BAD! Imagine taking the stairs UP... Yes, it was TIRING!!

Since I've been yacking about my Langkawi trip, I might as well type my LANGKAWI TRIP JOURNAL, which is LONG overdued... Here goes....

(Guys, this is only half of it cus it can't fit the page)


Langkawi Trip
Thursday 25/08/06


At 5 pm, my dad drove my aunt & I to Lavender St for our bus to KL which was leaving at 6 pm. Unfortunately, as timely these M'sian transportation system can be, we were delayed. And if we were delayed, we might miss our bus to Alor Star. And at 7pm, the bus finally moved. And because we knew that we might miss our bus at KL, my dad gave a buzz to Cik Sadiah to help us get to Jln Duta bus station. And my goodness, I was so afraid that I might miss my bus to Alor Star....

Since the driver knew that he was running behind time, he sped. Yes, it was MADNESS!!! By 11.45, he dropped us at Sungai Besi Petronas Station, which is after the last toll before entering KL. When we arrived, Cik Sadiah was already there, waiting for us.
And she drove SUPER fast in her new Toyota 7 seater. And thank goodness, we arrived in time...


We were the last to board the bus after my aunt went to the ladies. Oh my! We were the last peeps to board. And our seat was right smack ion the center... Ok, so we got boarded & settled down. Took my shawl out & made myself comfy before sleeping.. And oh my goodness! We've been cursed to freeze in the bus again. The last time when I went to Trengganu, the same thing happened. And thinking that I've learnt my lesson, I wore double layer but it didn't work. So my aunt & I practically froze in the bus.

Friday
26/08/06
And we arrived at the bus terminal Sahab at 6 am. Went to the 'surau' to do my subuh. And the best part, we did our subuh twice. Because we thought that it was already subuh. But as we were leaving, we heard the 'azan' & we knew we had to do our 'subuh' again. Went back in to do our subuh & left. Had breakfast at the warong & waited for our bus. And exactly at 7am, we took the bus that was bound for Kuala Kedah. And as if we were cursed again, the bus was FREEZING again...
Once we arrived at Kuala Kedah, we bought the tix which was for the first ferry at 8am. The journey was 2 hr long. And WE WERE FORZEN again. And I left my shawl in my bag, which was with all the other luggages of the other passangers. So I just shut up & sleep, with a freezing butt...Took my brunch at a nearby eating place after doing some shopping with my aunt. She did some shopping once we arrived at Langkawi.. After the brunch, the guide came by to pick us up. We checked in at City Bayview Hotel. Checked in, showered & changed. And at 2pm, we started the tour starting with ;
1)Underwater World
2)Gamat Factory
3)Makam Mahsuri
4)Dataran Helang

We got back at 7.30pm or so... Unfortunately, there was a leaking in our room & we had to change our room... From 1202 to 1005. So our dinner with Nor, Itaw & Shimah was delayed. And they went shopping at their 'Geylang' while waiting for us....

After dinner, we, 5 gals, went to look for durians. And for the sake of durians, we went to look for them in at ard 9.30pm. And it was dark... Berani betul budak budak ni semua... Khekhekhekhe!!!! Too bad we didn't see any durians. But we went home with foodstuff...


Saturday
27/08/06


(From here on, i'm typing it straight from what I've written in my notebook)

Got up, showered, changed into my blue tank, prayed & went down for breakfast. And it was RAINING!!! Oh my, on the day that we were supposed to go for our SNORKELLING!!! Boon came by to send us to the ferry terminal. And we had this other tour to bring us to PULAU PAYAU.... And since there was alot of people and we wanted to get the guide attention, all my aunt said was ' Hey Mat Handsome, ferry kite mane?' and we got attention of the guides. Come on, 5 gals and one of them said Mat Handsome, it must have left an impact on them... Khekhekhekhe!!! It worked alright...

Initially Nor & I didn't want to do any scuba but somehow, my aunt & shimah were discussing about going for the dive. And when my aunt called one of the scuba guys, we ALL practically jumped into the idea & all of us agreed to do scuba diving on top of our snorkelling...

On the ferry to Pulau Payau, Itaw practically put on globs of TANNING LOTION while I put on globs of SUN BLOCK. We both took the opportunity to sun-tan. But guess who was more tan? ME? The one who put on SUNBLOCK!! And she, the one who put on TANNING LOTION, wasn't tanned at all....HAHAHAHA!! Funny how things worked out....

We were instructed to do the snorkelling first. But all of us had to go for the briefing first. Regarding safety procedures and all.... We got our goggles & snorkelling gears after the briefing. It took us quite a while to find the fins that fits us all well. Maklumlah, 5 org, so 5 mcm size. Ade besar, ade kecik.. Kelakar alright....

Since I could swim, I just went straight into doing it & I was able to snorkel.. Swimming background & all... And when I got up to check on the others, I heard one of the guides (aka Kepo) saying 'Tu makcik tak leh'. I went to check on who was it, well it was my aunt. SHE COULDN'T SWIM. She panicked when she couldn't step on the bed... And because of that, she pretty much stayed by the shore & the fishes still played ard with her... While Nor & I swam together, Shimah & Itaw went off.. Donno where alright.. Everybody just swam & swam...
And then, we were called up for lunch. So Nor & I went back to the deck. While my aunt was enjoying with her fishes..


As Nor & I walked up the deck, the KEPO diver pass a cheeky remark saying that our snorkelling could have been more fun if he came along. I gave Nor the look.... And we just ignored him.

Since it was Nor, my aunt & me who was on the deck first, we had to get hold of Shimah & Itaw. So there we went calling & searching them, signalling them to get back on the deck... And when they did got our attention, they took the other way up, which was from the steps up. And when it was Shimah's turn to get up, we all laughed. Cuz of all the comments that she made regarding the steps being slippery.. It was REALLY funny. I extended my hand & gave Shimah a helping hand. It was tough alright to get out from the water onto the deck via stairs due to the weight of the water & so forth....

After lunch, we were given the briefing AGAIN.. Shimah went first. As it was procedure that 3 divers will go in with 3 instructors. And Nor, my aunt & I were afraid. So in the end, Shimah went first. My aunt, who was really afraid, asked whether she could get a refund. She was chickening out. All that instructor could say was "Belum try, belum tau makcik. Cuba dulu." At the briefing, the instructors were trying to keep the 4 of us calm. Esp my aunt who couldn't swim. So he went saying that scuba diving is like dancing..It went like this....

Instructor : Diving ni mcm joget asli.. Kena lemah lembut...
I look at Nor. Joget asli? And we just smile.. Our own personal joke.

.
Let me remind you readers that one of the advantages of going for a trip with 5 gals is that we get the attention of the divers. And this came handy cus because of us, the instructors made an exceptional case of going in with 4 divers with 4 instructors... Special treatment.


We all got geared up for our scuba dive. Oh my, the paraphanelia WEIGHED A TON on me. And I had a weight belt. After being all strapped up, OH MY GOODNESS!! HOLY MACARONI!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let me remind me that I had about 20 kg of weight on me. I had a super hard time to get up after being strapped up. I know I was just to move from the seat of the boat to sitting on the edge of the boat, ohmygod! With the flippers on my foot & everything, I moved around as though I was A PREGNANT WOMAN.. With a big tummy. But this is slightly different. WITH A HUGE LOAD ON MY BACK. And with a push, i went in & all the weight was GONE....

While the instructor was holding on to me, he was asking his other friend whether he could swap me for Nor. And guess what he said, " Come on! I was waiting for this the whole day!" I really wanted to laugh big time but with my mouthpiece in my mouth, FORGET IT!

Even though I had some ear problem, I really enjoyed myself during the scuba dive. And all the fishes that I saw. OH MY! And the SIZE...

Once my time was up, my instructor was helping me get out from all my gear. And when my aunt got up from the water, all the other instructors asked how was it.. My aunt's reply was 'BEST' with two thumbs up. And my instructor, whom she asked regarding the refund, said was 'Tu lah,tadi kate nak refund sangat. Ni sekarang dah cuba, best kan???Kan??? Kan??'...
We all just said thanks to ALL of them. And rushed back to the ferry cuz we were the last people left And the best part was, when we walked back to where our bags was, Shimah was with the KEPO, who had fantastically helped us packed our bags & wheeled them onto his trolley... So we actually had our things wheeled onto the ferry...


When we were onboard, other then the fact that we were dripping, we were given sneaky remarks by the other instructors... Hahaha!

And at a point, went Nor, Itaw & I were discussing something in the ferry, Mat KEPO just went into the group. And the 3 of us just gave him the STARE. And that was how we nicknamed him MAT KEPO...

We got back to our hotel late. After we changed & showered, we got dressed for our trip to the weekend market, aka pasar malam... And there might be some shots of the pasar malam.. Look look, see see yah.... 4 of them bought blouses & stuff while I only bought a skirt & a watch.. And after the pasar malam, my aunt was too tired to follow us to Langkawi Parade which was a Shopping Center. All of us did all sorts of shopping... We bought all sorts if stuff & what nots... And SHIMAH COULDN'T STOP SHOPPING UNTILL THE SHUTTERS STARTED COMMING DOWN... And my eyes & legs couldn't tahan anymore... I was just so tired alright...
And when we got back to the hotel, I went back to my room to change. Had my dinner in their room. And we had a good laugh about our trip for the day...
