Live it Right

Life is about making Something out of Nothing at all. If you're able to do that, you're able to do Everything.

Painted Life

Life is like a flower, painted to perfection, yet at the end it wilts, fragile as it is, only the stem left unbroken.

Fallen Leaves

Like the autumn leaves, we fall at times, only to find ourselves blown away by the wind, and thus we reach yet another place.

1st Day: Tuesday

Woke up at 8am+, got ready and start for our journey at 9am+.

By the time we reach there about 8pm+ ad.
Geng rite?

Ppl use 6 hours 2 reach, we took almost 12 hours 2 reach.
My dad la. Along the way entah dia sesat pi mane.
And he purposely masuk Carrey Island, which fyi, is just palm trees all around.
Nth 2 c, he went in just get 2 the end...><"
Took 30 minutes in and out.
That's y my mum keep saying he like 2 waste time.
Sigh, make us pening giler.
Asyik pusing sini pusing sane.
Along the way duno pass by how many sorts of things, and see how many sorts of stuff.

Except for the cows crossing the road all the time. Heh.

On the way, drop by Teluk Intan, and see the Menara Condong, can't rly see it condong from my pix, bcoz I didn't even take it properly, but when u got in there, it makes u dipsy, dizzy,, even thou it's juz slightly condong, climb the stairs oso feel pusing~ It's the gravity har?
 
 

2nd Day: Wednesday

Was suppose to go over to the Island today.
But then hor, bcoz of other plans we go there the next day.
What plans?

Early in the morning, pi makan breakfast.
Then went to see Bird Nest. That's right. 
The burung layang-layang that creates the nest.
It's owned by my mum's aunt.
1kg of Bird's Nest can earn RM4500 I think.
Can't remember, about that la.
1 month can get about 50k if the birds all come around.
Depends on luck lor they say.
If the bird like ur place,
They'll stick to there.

If not,
Mostly about half that amount.
Ofcoz need to be divided to the middle man, the workers all oso la.
Average 1 person makes about 10k per man.
That's still a lot rite??
No wonder it's so xpensive siot.

Then nvm, we juz sitted there do nth. While my mum chat wif her auntie. She's like got so many thgs 2 talk. Lol. I mean my mum.
Note to self: Whenever you follow someone else around, bring a novel along. Heh. At least can cure my boredness.
After that hor, we go where you know? Go to a farm, see what? I'll show u a few pictures.

 

That's why me and my sis so pek chek.

Padi field, fish pond, Jackfruit tree, Papaya tree, Durian tree, the durian size betul XXXL punyer, Melaka u won't c so BESAR punye.
The flesh very thick, not very sweet, not very bitter. 
Juz nice. Ate a couple oni, as u noe, I dun like Durians. Hee. Saje makan.

Then nvm, after that it rains and we go to another town, Kulim.
That's like 1 hour and a half from where we were.

When I dun mentioned about any food?
Bcoz I dun exactly remember when and where I eat wot,
Even thou got pictures.
But not so nice la.
So not gonna post, haha. I'll list it out.

5. Claypot Chicken Rice
6. Char Koay Teow
7. Tomyam bihun
8. Fish and chips
9. Nasi Lemak
10. Otak2
11. Curry Mee

Hmm, I guess that's all? N no la. I didn't eat all of that la. Campur2 la..share wif my mum and my sis. Haha.
If I ate it all, I've already put on some pounds liao lor..=P
N if u wanna ask me which food nicer. Ofcoz I say Melaka ler.
It's all about wot we used to eating growing up.
My cousins from KL still prefer Loloq over Satay Celup.
But to us, Satay Celup the best!!
Haha, so yea la, different rasa wot.
I tried the food biasa je, to them it's nice. 
To me, xda pe.

Special Story:
My mum's aunt has a son, that is kinda mentally not so fit.
He's not crazy. But his mind is like a child+adult. I dun rly noe how 2 xplain, for those who watch Fei Mao, u'll noe wot I mean.
There's actually sum1 like Fei Mao. That can do thgs on their own.
Can communicate wif ppl and all, just cudn't make logical thinking by their own.
He became like that bcoz he fell and knock his head on the stone floor when he was juz 2 year old. Yea, a kid.
Juz like fei mao demam panas so bcum like that.
As they say, the plug short circuit ad.
His memory is quite good thou. He can remember the places he been too.
But nth 2 far long.

He can speak a little bit of cantonese, hokkien, chinese, and english.
My mum says he went to special school.
But I thk his english is even better than those I noe. No offence.[I'm not saying mine is good]
I think if he haven't knock his head and got stitches on it.
He wud hev been a really smart person.
His dad is a high ranking police officer, his mum is oso quite smart.
So it's only fair that he is too.

He's 50 this year btw, 1 year younger than my mum, but he feels more like a koko then an uncle.
You won't think of him as a uncle figure.
But a koko, seriously, even thou he look his age.

My mum's aunt is a very rich lady.
The farm, the bird nest, all belongs to her.
But she doesn't rly live an expensive lifestyle.
Not rly stingy, not rly boros too.
Her hse tv byk besar man.
It's like 40-50 inches I thk.

When a family is too rich,
It drives people apart.
Her grandfather leaves a large portion of property,
But bcoz of that,
All of them gaduh,
She dun mind, since she's so rich rite.
But the rest oso very rich,
Only thg wif human, 
They're never satisfied.
Never.

The more money they hev,
The more money they want,
For what?
My grandmother alwiz say u can't brg it to the grave,
And bcoz we aren't that rich,
Out family is more close knitted.
My grandma has filial children,
Even thou sum of their spouse are calculative and wotsoever. 
But we're doing well, not so bad. ^^
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My sis's fren was saying yesterday,
How cum we boleh suka suka buat steamboat,
Buat bbq, we alwiz hev these gathering at home lor,
Even thou I dun like it, as u noe, me no party ppl,
Me dun like layan ppl, say me lan ci, I dun care,
I dunwan 2 layan means dunwan 2 layan.

Haha, well, I juz dun like 2 ckp kosong ok?
I notice ppl do that alot.
Asking u about ur stuff,
But it's juz 4 courtesy purposes,
Not that they'll remember after that,
Get wot I mean? I dun like doin that.

Bcoz most of the times, we won't even see each other the 2nd time, so why bother?
Speaking from an anti social perspective. No offense. 
Mayb it's a good thg I'm goin away,
Mayb I cud create a new identity while I'm gone.
Mayb it's rite wot a fren said, x dpt uni I Sad, dpt uni I Scare.=P

Got in to UKM btw, taking Literature. 
I thk it's my 1st choice, I dun even remember.
The nearest public Uni from Melaka.
Haha, 1 hour n a half. My sis's falkuti.

My gosh, her falkuti is up hill down hill man..><"
Means I won't be able to ride bicycle la tu.
My sis was saying, will I be able to cope?
Do I hev a choice? I put english as well.
But I wanted Literature more.
Bcoz I dun like 2 speak, english requires lots of speaking. =P
And bcoz I like to take COLD subjects.
The stuff ppl dun touch.
I'm guessing the business n sorts will hev hundreds of them.
N none of my interest oso.
Public uni so limited choice.
What choice do I hev?
None.

At least it's sth I prefer. Won't say like.
Since I prefer poems over classical novels.
But I'll find a way to survive.
If I cud make it thru.
I'm afraid of the dark btw.
I'll try keeping my eyes shut all the time when it's dark.
So, haha, I am so Si Liao. I pass thru Siliao btw, a small kampung in Msia. Haha.

Ok then, 2 weeks n I'm gonna be caged, this time on my own.
Hev 2 leave Melaka, my beloved home.
Sad sad, sob sob.
Melaka the best!!!!!

Xtra:
As u notice, I dun like 2 post a few posts in a day. Made exception for a few, but, lazy rite now. Hee.

Laz nite pi makan Pizza Hut sama family n my sis's fren, we all noe him lor, org baba, haha. Then after that went to Wings wif my Jie Jie and her fren, that lil pig n me both no brg hp, coz by the time we got home sudah kong, entah mane itu charger hilang, cudn't find it, need 2 buy another one.

Anyway, I won't be going to Wings again. The price really ketuk org kao kao. I never been there lor. Oni been to Xuan. Nvm, the thg wif these places is that. They FORCE ppl to order drks. That's y I go Xuan 1 time then no go ad. There's a few places that I wudn't go whenever my fren ask me. Wher is that? Station 1, Mori Cafe and Xuan, and now Wings. I say u mau pi pergi la, gua xmau ikut. These kind of places rly chop ppl I tell u. Blood Suckers...Eek, if the thg is nice, I might still consider, thing is, the thg not say very nice oso. Swt.

My drks, as usual, oni drank until half, I dun like cold drinks. I dun drk Coffee and Milk. Which put Old Town in my anti list oso. Bcoz it serves no TEA for me!! Ish, geram betul.

Things I Like & Hate:
1. Like English Tea. Hate Chinese Tea.
2. Like Honey Dew. Hate stuff that smells of Honey Dew. E.g. Marshmallows!!!
3. Like Banana. Hate anything other that has Banana in it. E.g. Banana cake.

That's juz a few. Hee. I guess that's all for today. Wah, sudah pukul 1pm man. Gua blog more than 2 hours liao. Haha. Starving ad. So long then. Any mistakes I write above malas nak chek. So tell me if u spot any. ^^

+North, South, East, West...

+...n I miss Melaka so much...=)
+Home sweet home...
+Finally bak home...yatta!!
+Even though it was 4 days, we're on the road for 24 hours...which rly sums up 2 only 3 days...
+Melaka is still way better than other states...hehe...

Day#1...
+Cross Johor and went straight into Pahang...
+On the way to Kuantan, we dropped by Tasik Chini, which is said to be polluted in the newspaper recently...but hmm, it doesn't seem so when we got ther, the water is clear n clean, though on the way in there's a factory that gives out rather black smoke, but the lake is deeper into the forest...the lake area is so serene you could juz take a breath, close ur eyes, n feel the surrounding air...we got on a boat ride n got over to a rather small "orang asli" village, there's a cute lil girl over ther which has such a special colour of hair, it's a mix of highlight brown n blonde, n it's NATURAL, even "kacukan" rarely can be born with such a hair, perhaps she's mix blood 2, but even so, it is still very special, I wonder if the school will ask her to dye it black, if so, it will be such a waste, the hair is so beautiful, n I trust she'll be really pretty when she grows up...
+By the time we arrived Kuantan, it was about 5 in the evening I thk, not rly sure, we juz went 2 a Mamak stall nearby n hev sum roti apa2 la...
+Dinner time, we went to a chinese seafood restaurant, ordered sum dishes, n I rarely eat half of it, I wonder if the people here eats a lot, their one scoop of rice is so much...duh...
+After that, we went bak 2 my dad's cousin's hse n stay overnight, woke up early in the morn n went 2 hev nasi lemak as breakfast, then off we go 2 another destination...

Day#2...
+Masuk kita org ke Kelantan ek, bfor that my mum was sayin y dun u wear sth else(eh well, I was wearing a normal mng top)...n then my sis was wearing shorts, haha, asked her 2 change into sth longer, I juz wear a jacket over, was like, wth, ther will be "Mat Saleh" over ther dressing only half of their body, duh...my sis was like, is ther tourists in Kelantan?
+Duh, ofcoz ther is, juz after we chek in 2 our hotel, which is called Dynasty Inn, hmm, nt bad if ur oni 1 or 2 ppl, but I won't be staying ther again the next time I goes ther, hehe, after that we went around searching 4 dinner, then we passed by a chinese thai seafood restaurant n try the tomyam seafood, gosh, it's so nice, I wan sumore...lol...n yea, ther's a table of "Ang Moh" at ther, n who says ther ain't Mat Salehs over ther? Hehe...=P
+Ok, day 2 is done, n bak to the Inn we goes...

Day#3...
+Woke up n find breakfast 2 eat...dun remember wot I ate thou...=P
+Went around Tumpat searchings 4 "wat"s, ther suppose to be many at ther, but we oni managed 2 find 2, sadly, but ther hardly is any signboard, even when ther is, we still couldn't find it, n we asked quite a few ppl, still, we keep turning in circle, god, that place is so misleading, duh...went 2 the Wat Mai Suwan Khiri @ the Dragonboat temple, the temple is pretty, I like the dsigns, n it has a tall standing buddha, after goin off from the temple n still can't find our way 2 the sitting buddha temple, we turn around n went bak 2 the previous temple, n my mum asked the monk 4 direction, it's a thai monk, he speaks chinese thou, n he drives, haha, my lil sis was like, oh, the monk drives, i say, lol, ofcoz they do, how else r they gonna get their groceries...=P
+Finally managed 2 find the temple, even though we still took the wrong way even wif the monk's direction, hehe...told u the road is misleading, he said straight, well, it seems evrywher is straight over ther...unfortunately, the Wat Machimaram @ the Sitting Buddha temple is all closed up, perhaps it's bcoz that's friday[off day at the state]...but my dad didn't like that temple, even though it's closed up, but we could see that evrythg is grill, I seriously mean evrythg? They put grills around the god statues, the dragon poll, n even the whole area of the temple are up with grills, wot's wif that? My dad was saying, who the hell put fencing around such thgs? I mean, evrywher we go, temples are alwiz open, n this one, is grilled around, n no touching whatsoever, n the dragonboat temple is still prettier, sadly, whoever dsign the temple, didn't thought of it thoroughly when they built it...is ther such a priceless gold that u had 2 locked it all up? I wonder...if "THEY" are happy wif it..hmm..bless them innocent souls....[Oh, I chek, I guess sum parts of the temple are covered wif gold foils[courtesy who ppl who visits, so ther's still no reason 4 the fencing]...n if the thief is stupid enuf 2 steal from temple, let him be...
+Well then, we din manage 2 find the Wat Pothivihan @ Sleeping Buddha temple even though it's suppose 2 be nearby according 2 the signboard, duh...we went 2 the tax free area straight up, the place is like, blood suckin, the price of items inside the tax free area is even more expensive than the ones outside, imagine that? I can buy cheaper chocs from the outside? Seriously, n ofcoz ther's no liquor ovr ther, u can juz go thru over 2 thailand ther thou, haha...pass the kastam 1st ofcoz...
+We had our share of rounding n went bak 2 Kota Bahru, stopped by Tesco and had some fish n chips at London Fish Tales, not bad, hehe...it's a fast food restaurant wif oni fish...so so, we are the oni one eating when we got ther, haha...ppl ther prefers chicken I guess, kfc n chicken rice shop is juz packed...
+Then we head to Perak[passed thru Banjaran Titiwangsa, it's so chilly on the peak] n go straight 2 Kuala Kangsar @ Bandar Diraja[on the way it's dark n no street lights at all, like 4 100km probably? That's like 1 hour journey? Oh god, oni the road looks nice...hmm, round n round we could barely find a hotel that we thk can be stayed, lol...so off we go to Taiping @ Bandar Warisan instead...n ther we head straight 2 Legend Inn recommended by my cousin since it's already 9pm, n we're all so tired, [so din managed 2 go visit the Night Safari, sadly]... after we chek in, my dad n mum went 2 da pao 4 us sth 2 eat, they round n found a food court, which they say oni started to pack at that hour, wow, can u find such a food court in Melaka which is open until midnite? I mean do the ppl ther eat n not slp?
+Then off we go 2 slp after dinner...

Day#4...[Today]
+Woke up n had breakfast at a coffee shop, ordered pasembor[which is rly juz rojak], mee rebus, mee goreng mamak, chicken dip orange rice, curry rice, hehe...not bad...we juz passed around n share..haha...that's wot we alwiz do anyway...=P
+After breakfast, went 2 a shop n bought sum stuffs, then off we go 2 Ipoh, oh, the place is so Big...hehe...arrived ther at 2 sth, meet up wif my mum's fren n went 2 the real Old Town about 3pm, n ther's still so many ppl eating, wow, even at 4pm, there's still ppl cumin in 2 eat, these ppl can rly eat, lol... n yay~finally, got 2 taste the real "hor fun", they call it "kuey tiaw soup" ther thou, hehe...nice one, the "kuey tiaw goreng" oso not bad, n if ur wondering about the white coffee, fyi, I don't drk "Coffee", not even "White Coffee"...haha...
+Dropped by my mum's fren's hse n sit 4 awhile, had a drk, n then heads right bak 2 Melaka..how much I miss here...I doubt I'll ever leave here...home sweet home...=)

+N ok, I'm tired now. So until 2moro, or the day after 2moro...juz wanted 2 safe keep wot I remember, leave out quite a lot thou, hee...
