My Chinese New Year Holiday (^^)v

Honestly... I was unhappy when I heard the news about Kuliyyah of Pharmacy giving extra holiday on Friday.. For days I was disturbed by the thought of where to go during the 5 days holiday.. I was dawned with the idea of loneliness.. ultimate silence and stillness... Pathetic imagination that was~


Well.. I was actually looking forward to conquer another mountain peak during the holiday but fate has it that the expedition was cancelled and no back up plan was there for me.. My dreams of spending my time in an enchanted green surrounding was dishevelled... I really really miss those good old days filled with adventure (However, I don't miss you Encik Pacat~)



But then as usual.. My free time will be filled with exciting stuffs that I've not anticipated at all
. It so happened that all my brothers in Puchong are going back this holiday except for Apit who is studying in Unimas and also Abg Saba who is in UK. I had the chance to meet the new in-law of the family, the wife of the third bro, Asiela (I hope I spell that right) who happen to be in the same age as me.. Another point to bully me for not having any boyfriend.. CES!






And then they also have a new member in the family.. MAWAR SOFEA.. She is so adorable... I can't help but stare at her all the time.. I'm not very good at cuddling newborns.. I think I don't have those essential fats to make them comfortable in my arms..
And then I think all the sports and games stuffs have made my touch and grips stiffer... But then I'm very proud when I manage to make her fall asleep in my arms!!!! YES!!!!






And then my dear friend Azie got married on Sunday.. I manage to attend the nikah.. She was so beautiful and there was this clear shine of happiness in her face.. May the couple be blessed at all times.. Ameen.. I think her 'pelamin' was very nice.. Simple, neat and somewhat unique.. They have this very entertaining DJ too who was teasing the newly weds...





And then on Monday I went wall climbing with Zac and Zarif at Camp 5 in One Utama.. It's very huge with lots of routes.. From easy, medium to hard.. It was really enticing and I really wanted to try all but my muscles started aching after 2 to 3 climbs and I did manage to finish some routes hehe Here are some pics..











That night we had a family barbeque.. It was also sort of a surprise birthday party for Makcik and Pakcik; both born in February... This was where
I met this handsome guy named Mikaeel...





Hurm.. Perasan x?? Kalo benda2 best mesti cepat jak masa berlalu... Same goes with my CNY holiday... Suddenly I'm already back at Kuantan.. Haiyak! Hurm wondering what's coming my way~~~

Paulo Coelho~

Hurm.. Tracing back my favourite authors...


Francine Pascal-->> Sweet Valley (Jr.. high..mid school..mystery.. I had them all haha)


R.L Stine-->> Goosebumps and the Cheerleader Saga where there's this cheerleading team that seem to be haunted by evil spirits~


Sidney Sheldon-->>Fell in love with "Nothing Last Forever" and started to collect his books.. They are thrillers~


J.K Rowling-->> Harry Potter is an all time favourite...


Nicholas Sparks
-->> My favourite author for romance.. Mature storyline with the least obscene plots if compared to other romance books hahaha My favorite would be "The Wedding" but I also like "The Walk to Remember" (Nangis masa baca time kelas add math masa form 5)



Danielle Steel
-->> My favourite "Granny Dan"



Mitch Albom-->> One more to complete my collection...





Well.. There are more but these are amongst those that I collected..
But seriously, I realized that my reading materials are turning more philosophical and abstract these days.. Rather than favouring fiction, where there's an idealistical story which I'm supposed to be eager to finish, I prefer real life stories now.. Real life stories where each line is contemplated into a greater meaning of my own.. Which to some extend will influence the actions that follow after I close the book.. Okay~ enough said so now I want to talk about this new-found favourite author...



Hurm.. I really don't know what drives me to talk about this author's writing.. I think I'm just mesmerized by the way he perceive the world around him.. By the way he sees things whereby he note that every single element of the world are parts of the unique circle of life.. And he has this gift of making great analogy from the things around u
s and relate it to the things we do in life.. He also have this collection of stories that he gained from years and years of travelling and interaction with people..







Yup this is my first book of Paulo Coelho's.. This one comprise of short stories.. About the things he encountered, his ideas from the phenomenon that he observed.. His language are so easy to understand, gracefully written because he did mention that the most important thing is to make readers understand what he's trying to convey.




He's a Brazillian and is quite a devout Christian.. I always think that Brazillian are like that because I remember during one World Cup, when Brazil won, after a few leaps of joy after the victorious penalty (I think it was a penalty that time), the players formed a huge circle and they prayed together for a moment right in the middle of the field and then start to celebrate their triumph again...






So.. For this book, there are some parts where he did mention about missionary, chapel and stuffs but really from my opinion, that shouldn't deprive us from extracting the positive messages.. You can just read it, ignore it and not let it influence your faith...




Yeah~ so if you favour Mitch Albom or any other known author who loves to write about what matters in life, you'll definitely like this one..

Di KOTA KERIANGAN!! \(^^)/

This is another story of my post-exam joyous moment.. Well, this was also suddenly decided.. I don't remember who brought up the idea but I do remember it was me who blurt out the statement of dire determination...
"Rei! Quorum kite 2 orang! Takde orang nak join, kite pegi jugak!!!"blogger-emoticon.blogspot.com


So.. I reserved a room at First World Hotel on Wednesday and we set off to KL on Thursday afternoon..
We were very very LUCKY throughout the trip.. We have to check in before 9 pm so since we were departing from Kuantan, time was precious to us that Thursday because a minute late will cause us to lose our room..





1. We planned to buy the tickets to KL on the spot. And when we arrived at the terminal, a Transnasional bus bound to KL stopped in front of us and the driver told us to get in



2. At the Monorail station, the monorail arrived exactly after we bought our tickets



3. Luckily there's a bus from KL Central to Genting at 6pm.. We arrived in Genting around 8.15 pm.. The room has two single beds and very cosy with a small tv..



We were like.. "Yes! We made it!"

Since it was Friday so the queue was not that snaking long... We manage to finish all thrill rides but was disappointed that the Cockscrew coaster was under maintenance...











Disappointed also that the space shot or is it solero shot was not that scary.. Rei and I was talking to each other during the ride..





"Tak takot pon"


"Macam naek lif je"


"Apsal tengok dari jauh cam laju..?"


Ataupon kami sudah imun~~~???


Another lucky story.. Just as we went inside to have our lunch, suddenly the rain poured. So all rides were stopped.. Naseb baek sempat habiskan semua..






After lunch, we went to try our luck with the games.. I really wanted a teddy bear so we played "pancing itik" I was unlucky.. Pancing due kali asyik dapat kosong je.. For the third attempt, I hand over the "pancing" to Rei.. She caught a duck with number 2 under it.. So dapatla my medium size white furry fluffy cute teddy bear! YEAY!!! I think it's worth it because each "pancingan" worth RM2 so my teddy bear cost me rm6 hehe





o0o0ps! We also have this one scary story to tell.. Well, while waiting for our number to be called for check in.. A chinese man approached us.. He wanted to give us his deluxe room only for rm80...


Gg : Hurm.. Kenape you nak jual???

Man : Sebab saya suda kalah itu Casino...


Seriously tekejot plus takot... Rei and I were exchanging glances.. trying to communicate by telepathy..


"Rei, ikot aku gi counter"
"Aah.. Dahsyat tol ek"

"Tu la pasal"
"Gile ar drg nih"

(Dialog telepahty kami~)



Although it was only the two of us, it was still a great trip! \(^^)/ On Wednesday morning we met Don, Zac and Jaz at Pak Lah and I excitedly told them about the trip..

Don said
"Pegi bedue je?? ha~ gamba tu nanti mesti sorang2 je"<- this turn out to be very true hahaha


I really hope next time we could go there together in a larger group then it'll be even fun and LOUDER hehe It was really awkward to be screaming joyfully when there's only the two of us but we did it anyway because "kite jumpe orang kat genting ni sekali je seumor hidop kite.."


Suggestion untuk Genting.. Kalau wat ade music plus DJ mesti lagi FUN macam dekat Dufan, Jakarta...





O ya~ total budget for this trip was RM200 per person; transports (from and to Kuantan and Monorail included), accommodation, theme park ticket, arcade tokens.. Excluding food.. Konon nda mau makan.. Padahal asyik melantak marry brown jak dua orang nih hahaha
