Redang...

Just came back from Seremban(Charanyah's place)... This marks the end of the Redang trip... The trip was from 17/7-21/7...

17/7
Met up at KL Sentral with Jit Kin, Kuan Hui, Charmaine and Kelly at about 2pm... After having our lunch at KL Sentral we boarded the KTM to Seremban to get to Chanranyah's place as this trip was actually a school trip of her mother's but due to inactivity of the school teachers and students, outsiders can be invited to join...haha!!! Had a lot of fun in her house and about 10pm we started to head to Charanyah's mother's school to take the bus to Kuala Terengganu...

18/7
The bus ride finally ended at 6.30am!!! Never board a night bus if you are on a long trip because it will be damn cold!!! We sat at a mamak stall which discriminated us for 'breakfast'(which was our beverages) because the ferry to Redang will only available at 9am... Had a lil walk at the jetty and took lots of pics as usual... The ferry ride finally came and we reached our destination at 12.30pm... The place that we stayed was very rural-ish... And it is run by Malays... So I'll give you the name of the 'resort' so you won't go there!!! Here comes the name, it's WISANA!!!

But I have to admit that the food is okay and the orange juice just tastes so good!!! The orange juice was like damn cold throughout the whole day... And the crackers there is the best thing!!!

All six of us stayed in 1 room which just fits us... The bad thing about that place was that electricity will only be supplied from 6pm onwards!!! That's because we were supposed to have activities before 6pm... Damn stupid right???

After our 1st lunch at the resort we went to the beach for swimming!!! At about 6pm we went for island hopping and had a glance of the sunset... Then, finally we get to bath!!! We played some games after dinner...

19/7
The activity for the whole day was snorkelling!!! We started by going to the Marine Park... Saw lots of fishes and coral reefs... Later on, we went back to have our lunch... We tried to fly the kite that Kelly bought but the kite died before it can function... What a bummer... After that, we went to Pulau Baku to continue our snorkelling though there's way less things compared to Marine Park...

The best thing was at night... We chatted and took lots of funny pics that time...

20/7
Last day in Redang... Went to Long Beach and Kuala Terengganu jetty for the hunt of souvenirs... Most of us(other than Jit Kin because the size is too small for him) bought the same clothes during the last minute before the bus left us... HAHA!!!

Reached Seremban at about 11.30pm... Stayed overnight at Charanyah's house... Viewed some of pics that we took and had a good laugh at Twilight the movie as it was totally different from what we had imagined from the book.... Slept at 4.30am...

21/7
The day that I never want it to come... Because it will be the day to go home!!! Saddening... It means that I won't have life again!!! lol... How I wish that we can stay longer!!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh...

P/S: The beach is damn nice and the sea is not polluted!!! Salty though...

Gosh... Help me please!!! Thanks...

Idle...

Been kinda idle to blog recently because just too many things has happened and it can't be done by using a few lines to illustrate them...

Last Saturday, went to Arnold's mansion for his farewell party as he will be leaving for MU(Melbourne U) on the following Tuesday... But I didn't attend his 'departure party' because there's no transport!!! haha... Instead went to SS2 to 'play' ball with PJ Crews and dined at Popeye's Chicken and Seafood Restaurant...

Watched Public Enemies with Raymond on Wednesday as he will be leaving in less than 24 hours from now...

Went to Mid Valley again on Thursday to watch 'Hare Potter' with Wenly, Ai Chin, Joe, Sam and Hare Jr... After that, we got a message from CJ to play ball at his place again...

Shall be leaving for Redang now!!! Bye...

This is a summarised post of what I've been doing for this week... Its quite a fun and exciting week!!! Wonder what surprises will there be next week...

What I've Done...

Alright, here's a lil summary of what I've done from Friday to Monday(yesterday)...

Friday
Went to MV with college mates to watch Transformers 2 which they had to delay for 1 week for me... Thank you very much!!! haha... After watching it, we went to Kenny Rogers for our lunch and viewed our Penang photos there... Laughed like crazy... Can't wait to go Redang... haha!!!

After that, I took a cab to CH which I have never laid my foot there since January... It didn't quite change a lot probably because we 'don't even have a headmaster'(that's what Kwan Siong said)... The whole(almost all) PJ crews and some Dota kakis were there playing basketball... haha... Feels nice to meet up with old friends at such a place where it all started... Then we went to 1U to celebrate FG Hare Jr's birthday... We dined at Peranakan Place because of CJ's honey sotong(and man it taste quite good)... As most of us are not full yet, so went to our 'paradise' a.k.a. Giant @ Al-Meerasa to continue our(excluding Tse Chien, Jiann Rong and Sook Sim) dinner... Had some great laughs there and played those IQ games that will turn me insomniac the last time I played... haha... Glad this time it didn't happen...

Saturday & Sunday
Was 'working' for my mom as she has to shift her office to another building, so I have to help her shift her baggages!!! Damn freaking tiring...

Monday
Went to 1U with PJ crews(JR, Snow, SS, Sam, Bear, CJ and our newest member-Pei Chee) for karaoke which we were scammed for paying additional fees which are more than 2 times the original price-200%... Then we went to CJ's house to play Guitar Hero...(Mind you till that time the only 'food' that I had for the whole day was just 4 letters- M.I.L.O!!!) After that we went to SS2 pasar malam for our dinner... Most of the songs played in the pasar malam were MJ's song!!! Cooooooooool!!! After that, Bear sent me and Sam home...

Michael 'the undefinable' Jackson...

He was black. He is an American. He suffered from a rare disease called vitiligo which results in a skin that looks bleached. He is the man of all men. He is an icon. He is a trend-setter. He is a singer. He is a dancer. He is the entertainer of all entertainers. He is the master of the stage. He is the King of Pop. He is a teacher. He is a humanitarian. He is a god. He is a good father. He is a good son. He broke barriers. He is a good 'photographer' as he changed the landscape of M-U-S-I-C. He is a constructor whom constructed a 'bridge' between humans. He is a symbol of unity as his musics unites everyone on Earth. He indirectly represents the alphabet M. He was a living legend. He is every good thing that can happen to anyone. He who will stay in all of our hearts forever. He who is highly honoured. He who we shall salute upon. He who one shall never forget even if he/she gets Alzheimer. He who bagged 197 music awards. He who is none other than the one and only-Micheal Jackson...

He started performing since he was five... He joined his brother to form the 'Jackson Five' which I had never heard any song from them until the day he has departed from Earth... The very first song that I heard from him was 'Earth Song'... I was sitting right in front of the TV and suddenly saw this MV with all the animals and heard his vocals and I was like 'wow...!!!' because that time I still don't know much about music yet... Since then, I started to notice him with 'Thriller', 'Bad', 'We Are The World', 'Beat It', 'Billie Jean' and the list can go on and on...

His story was way before Oprah Winfrey, Tiger Woods, Barrack Obama and other African-Americans... He opened the doors and paved the roads for black people to blend in the American society... He changed music into an art which is easily accepted... Before him, not much people would listen to music because some of it are meaningless and drab... He was the one who gave music its soul... His sleek and agile moves were the toppings of his music... His life was a mystery and now his death is also a mystery... His friend said during an interview that no one knows MJ other than MJ himself...

His contribution to the world is ginormous... He fulfilled his purpose that god sent him to Earth... In fact, he has done far more than humanly possible... His songs united everyone from every corner, his name can be heard whenever there is presence of human... He helped lots of children and it might be too over for some people and hence the rumours surfaced... But who would bother bout them right now?! He will always be remembered as an almost perfect man...

Long live the king... May he seek serenity and tranquility in another dimension... Bye Michael...

Singapore...

P/S: If you're a patriotic Malaysian please proceed no further, as this post contains disturbing contents...

Just came back from Singapore, and I've never felt this bad about coming back home before(other than being able to meet most of my friends and family again and wandering with my pc)... To conclude this situation, I have two words-MXXXXXIA SUCKS!!! I seriously feeling like staying in Singapore...lol...

I've stayed in Singapore for 6 days... Throughout these days, I've seen a lot... In Singapore, everyone is well-mannered... All the hotel staff will greet you as soon as they see you and even the taxi drivers greet you before you have to the chance to tell them your destination... The ushers will always chant 'Have a nice trip' when you are about to sit in the taxi... The taxi drivers ALWAYS follow the meter unlike the ones over here who will fix the price for you for a certain distance... Everyone over there is just so polite, that the waiter/waitresses there will apologize way before you start to question them unlike the ones here who will not only never apologize instead, they'll put the blame on you... And I seriously don't understand what's the point of studying 'Moral' in our school theoretically when it just comes right out of your heart intuitively(if you have it)... Its just like teaching people how to walk... Such ignorance... Or maybe it's because of the language that the subject is conducted, because in Singapore, there ain't no freaking annoying piggish language(which I always ace in it and yet despise it)... It's as if they have been discriminated, because in restaurants, there's no bloody green sign stating 'Halal' or 'Non-halal'... It sounds like heaven to me...haha...

And Singapore indeed is a man's heaven(strictly for those straight ones) because you just have to tilt your head a lil and you can see chicks everywhere!!! The amount is chicks is like you don't even have the chance to shout 'leng lui' because as soon as you want to open your mouth, another one will just be right in front you!!! Most important of all, there ain't no 'lalas'!!!
It is also a shopping heaven because in a few roads there's like a clump of shopping complex joined together... Just like seeing 1U, MidValley, Times Square, KLCC all along 1 whole road!!!

Everyone over there is kinda rich I think, because everything there is kinda cheap if you see it as a 1:1 ratio instead of 2.5:1 ratio... The waiter/waitresses in an ordinary restaurant gets a pay of S$ 6.50-7.50 per hour and the food there is damn cheap therefore, all the cars over there are worth more than RM 100k... They also have different plate numbers for different automobiles...

Everything over there is digitised... It's like living in Will Smith's character in IRobot... The signboards provides information of ETA of your destination... ETA of busses are also stated and information of busses that pass through the stations are provided as well...

In Singapore, everyone obeys the rules... It's as if they were robots planted with a chip for them to obey all the rules... Therefore, it is kinda hard to get a cab when you are in the middle of the road because you are required to queue up at a proper taxi stand to get a ride...

The roads there don't have much humps there fore you can see Ferrari's speeding across...
Everything just seems so perfect and surreal... Take a trip there if you don't believe me...
