Pangkor trip (expired) somewhere in early September

I seriously don't know what he's up to...
Every time i take a picture of him, he'll just do some funny faces.....
This is Fadhil, he's a future chef. He owe me lamb chop
This is Jovie, he very hamsap during the trip...in fact everyone is hamsap....keep touching my *** They said that the fishes biting their wee wee....

From the left, Adrian, Jovie, Yogis, Fadhil. One guy missing to buy the boat tickets.



Yes, the P.Pangkor (PP) trip. The last island destination for me before flying. This is the 2nd time I've been to PP. We took a bus from Pudu Bus Station in a group of 6 person.I don't even know what's the plan during the stay in PP. All i know is that we got a cheap hotel room. Each of us pay Rm 40 for a night. We got a Shelley with two rooms, a kitchen, and a living room.


As soon as we reach to our hotel, we went to the beach called xXxX (i totally forgot the name). Well, we plan to do some snorkeling there. Based on my experience, P.Redang its a better place for snorkeling. We took a boat to a small island. From there we put on our snorkeling gear and head into the sea....After we got bored snorkeling, we climb on the big rocks and takes lots of picture , but non of them were delivered to me.....and also non the picture taken from my camera were delivered to tham haha. After that, we head back to our shelley. We had maggie goreng for dinner and some tuna. At around 8pm like that, we walk out to look for supper....yeah...all we could find is just a house malay restaurant....i ordered nasi paprik as usuall but the INTI nasi paprik still taste better. blablabla...eat eat...blablabla....go to the beach and sit down talk here and there blablabla....go back room sleep...
Next day, we went for camping on the beach. We hired a guy to bring us to a deserted Island. So the guy left us there with our belongin and he left the island. So, we find a spot for our campsite. (my camera battery dead d...so no pictures) So, each of us were assign to do our jobs to set up the campsite. Me and Jovie, go collect woods and woods for the campfire , Yogis, Sara, Adrian setting up the camp...( a simple camp) and Fadhil, prepare dinner by marinating the chickens. After like 4 hours...our camp is done. We had dinner in the rain. Luckily the fire didn't go off when raining cuz we pick tha right spot that is under the big tree. We could also hear monkeys making noises when we bbq the chickens.....so i tried communicate with the monkeys....blablabla...the monkey talked to me...i say hello i want banana...nola...kidding.....shit.....i'm so tired...i'm writting this cincai......wait till Jovie update his blog la....in the middle of the night, some of us feeling hungry and some thirsty, so we boil the tap water water......and me and Jovie bbq chicken....and is taste better than before...maybe got some flies add something on.....and then we suddenly feel like peeing....but so dark.....have to use the flashlight to pee.....and say amitabha amitabha or not unwanted guess feels unhappy.......can't sleep cuz the camp is so small........so crouded.......so noisy........so cold...........I just couldn't sleep.......
The next morning...we went swimming plus shower....in the beach.......swim for long time...done alot of crazy stuff -.- shitty stuff i dowan to mention.....Remember Zohan can d......the guy came to pick us up back to the PP. By the way.....chicken rice in PP dam nice and cheap.......very smooth and silky...hmmm....i miss chicken rice.......then we went to buy some stuff...and blablabla...get on the bus...blabla....i didnt sleep throughout cuz i wanna look at my friends more or not i have to wait for 1 bloody long years so i could see them again......blablabla...reach Pudu station...say bye bye...take care......hehehehahahaha here and there......brother come pick me up...send me back home.......( i got problem draging the picture...so i leave all the pictures up there)

Penang Trip












One of my favourite place to visit in Malaysia would be Penang. Why? Well, it's because Penang have the best lala chap chap food in malaysia. such as char kuey tiau, loh mee (only edible in penang), fried oo chien, prawn mee, almost everything is good.
















We started our journey on friday morning and I was the driver for the trip. We stop at Ipoh pit stop where we substitute driver with my dad because I felt that my wrist is paining (really regreted for injuring my wrist long time ago). Before we arrive at our destination, we made a stop at Nibong Tebal where it is famous for its chim moai (crab porridge). As i remember about 7~ years ago, the porridge taste much better compare to now. Hehe, don't really care because my main target is the hawker center at Penang.












Komtar there on the left where Lim Guan Eng



is at the 21th floor if i am not mistaken



We didnt take the Penang bridge to cross to Penang Island because my dad got a call from his friend saying that there is an accident occur at the Penang bridge so we took the ferry to get accross to the island. Somehow, its pretty much the same for taking the heavy traffic bridge and waiting for the ferry. We waited for almost 2 hours to board the ferry.











On the ferry busy moving around




Its been long time since I last took a ferry to the island. i would choose to take the ferry to penang instead of the bridge because i enjoy the sea breeze although the smell is a bit unpleasent but for a happy go lucky guy like me wouldn't mind.











That's the hotel behind this esso station




Finally we landed on the island and straight away head to the hotel. Usually its only my mum and I go travel to penang without my dad because he don't like the traffic in penang. So we usually stay in Gurney Hotel because there is this espn and star sports channel there where i can enjoy my football match during the weekend nights while my auntie can watch her chinese drama, but this trip we ended up at Bay View City. We went for seafood restaurant and the food wasn't that bad, but ok (i just wanna go for loh mee). After the dinner, me and my mum went to my uncle's pub somewhere in gelugor. We had a drinking session there and surprisingly i didn't feel a bit dipsy even after drinking so much ( looks like i reached the next level of manly hood XD) and I sang kareoke with my mum (she's only comfortable person for me to sing with).We spend until almost 4am in the morning there.






It looks like taman dr M









The next morning we miss breakfast and straight go for lunch (only my mum and i). Oh my god, the hawker center we used to eat at pulau tikus is closed! so we went somewhere nearby to have our lunch and %*^@!#%^@# it doesn't taste good....even my mum fried kuey tiau better than that man. We head back to the hotel after that and continue sleeping. Actually this is not a part of my plan, my master plan is to eat breakfast ,lunch,tea time, dinner, supper with all the food i listed above but it didn't turn up well cuz the food doesn't taste good, so penang its like everywhere else, good food are only located in a particular shop and most of them are hidden.











There the two stall selling cendoi(thats the right way

to call it) On the left is the one my mum prefer




Woke up, wash up and get ready for dinner at equatorial hotal somewhere in bukit jambu. We went for a bowl of cendol at jalan pinang where there is a picture of PCK (Phua Chu kang and his fatty Rossie visiting the cendol stall).At Kl's Lot 10, there is also a cendol stall at the food court at thelowerground level. I wouldn't say it is much better compare to penang but its also tasty.The wedding food...is bad. As usuall, most of hotel food taste so so only. Blah blah blah ...dinner over...went back to hotel room and watch ftball blah blah blah ....$%!$&@ Man Utd won...wont feel that bad since arsenal draw again..i gueass its all controll by bookies...making the BPL an exciting league throughout the whole world...this is all business...blah blah blah









I took this leng chai picture to complete the background

view






Sunday morning, Eat a little at the hottel buffey and after buffey went to rangoon street for fish head thick mee hon...haha...nice name lehi don't know whats the name of the dish just input the thing i see on the dish fish head. After that start our journey home ...stop by somewhere right after the bridge and have our lunch at a place called prawn village ....as you can see i have three meals for the day before 2pm....so i have gain lots of weight...have to do more exercise











No kidding...thats a DAP banner, Now i know
the rocket can fly so high. 'this is DAP territory'



A part of the group,
As soon as i reach home head to bed for a short nap and the normal routine life continue from there...blah blah blah..Oh ya...Some where around june will be going there again...so its like to be continue~.~

New Zealand

This early of February, I went to New Zealand for a holiday trip. I felt sad because I couldn't spend Chinese New Year with my cousins like we did in the past few years. Plus, I am going without my brother! So, througout the whole trip, I am the only young man accompany by two senior couple.



We took the KLIA express train to the airport. RM35 person, does that sounds cheap? Only if you are travelling alone. For a group, it's much more better taking a cab to the airport. But still travelling through train is much more comfortable and much more time saving.



When we board the plane, I was sitting alone at the window seat. I was really hoping for a preety girl would sit next to me. Well, it ended up the other way round. A guy sits next to me. When I was really really young, I used to love the airplane food. Unfortunately, time changes and it sux. I didn't finish my dinner and breakfast in the airplane.



We left Malaysia at 11pm and arrive New Zealand at 3pm. For your information, New Zealand time is 5 hours ahead of Malaysia. We landed in the south island of NZ which the place is called Christchurch. I guess the place is name Christchurch by this cathedral. Acutally the bus driver did tell us why it is name Christchuch but I did not listen a single word from him because I was busy snaping photos.



The next day, we book a tour bus and took a whole day journey to way south of NZ to Queenstown. Throughout the whole trip, I see mountains, sheeps, mountains, sheeps, sheeps, mountains, lakes, sheeps, sheeps, horse, sheeps, baaa, baa,bla,bla



Between the trip from Christchurch to Queenstown, we stop by at the lake. There was an old chaple by the lake .Its really small, looks like a small hut. I got to admit, the scenery in NZ is really awesome. Its something that we couldn't see in Malaysia. The population of people in NZ is just 4 million. As for the sheeps, 40million -.-"'.

Holy Sheep!

Queenstown, is a really beautiful place. Its nice to stay but trust me, not for long. It might be good for a holiday but not for permanent stay. Its a really dull town where the only entertainment they have is night activity, rafting, fishing. They don't have a shopping mall there and the internet service is like 1 dollar for 10 mins. 1 NZ dollar convert to RM is 2.6 . Lucky I was born in Malaysia. But the local food there is really good. Especially lamb chop.


After Queenstown, we travel down to Wellington. Another day spending in the tour bus. I spend most of my time taking photos and playing my new lover



I wouldn't want to sleep because I think it might be a waste because my dad pay so much for the trip. So I tried to understand the natural beauty of the landscape in NZ, unfortunately I doze off for a while because I see too many sheeps.

brown sheeps?

We stop many places on the way to Wellington to snap some photos.



They said that NZ is the place where LOTR was shoot. These are the few places.



At last, Milford. They bring us for a cruise. I was expecting a cruise like starcruise, but its a small cruise. Yeah the weather is like cold in the morning, hot in the afternoon, and cold in the night. Its summer by the way. The cruise experience was wonderful, the best of the trip. Maybe because i like the sea breeze and I was like running around the cruise exploring the deck. There was this waterfall.

can you see the sea lions?

The pilot of the cruise bring us extreamely cloose to the waterfall and i got soaked. But it was fun .



We didnt spend a night in Wellington,so we travel back to Queenstown for a night.



After that we travel back to Christchurch and we have Indian cuisine for dinner. It was by far the best dinner throughout the trip. I couldn't stop taking extra rice because it was too tempting.

the maoriz!

From Christchurch, we flew to Roturoe. This town smells awfull due to the sulphuric smell. There is this geizer nearby the town. Most of the folks here are Maori. Maori is the native in NZ. They are really huge, nowonder rugby was dominated by the Kiwis. I've visited their village and its something like the orang asli in Malaysia but the only difference is that they are way bigger and they use 'gita' which we use guitar as a musical instrument. They sing a lot and they play some Yo Yo, but a traditional Yo Yo (too bad I didn't snap a photo of it cuz the girl who play yo yo was so beautiful until i got stun).



We left Roturoa to Auckland that is the Biggest city in NZ(Wellington is the capital city...forgive me for my mistake Joyce T.T). Like in Malaysia, in NZ there is also a tower in the city which is called Sky Tower and i live in a hotel next to it. There is this sky diving and i am too sheep to go for it. One advantage i found from the view from the Sky Tower compare to KL Tower is that there is a really great view of the sea. I later found out that KL Tower too have something like parashuting instead of sky diving. For your information, after 5pm, all shops are colsed. So, its another dull city. If you like pubbing and night activity, yeah it suits you. There is also a casino in the hotel I am staying in. I finally get to go in after the failure my 1st attempt due to my age. Since that day was 8th of February,I get to go in for the 1st time. Nothing special really, the only thing i was facinated was the way the chinese people gamble. Some of them gamble such big amount of cash which makes me feel like whoa, I wanna be that rich until I could bet that big amount.



Finally I wrap up my trip to NZ. Seriously, its a nice place for honeymoon though
