First snorkelling ever - Krabi Thailand

Me and the other 2 friends has decided to celebrate our friends’ birthday at Krabi (don’t falling chair now as she was the one who initiate this and we pay for our own expenses). It was so sweet of us.

So 4 of us took a trip down to Krabi on 23-26/2/10 by Air Asia and I had very crazy cheap returns airfare. Make sure to be clever to book the ticket at least 8 months ahead if you wanted the cheap holidays too =).

For so-so beach lovers like me (that’s why I got cheap ticket), apart from had a great time with the biatches and the scenic & relaxing backdrop of the island... I would rather not to have any beach-trips for the next 1 year. I had enough salty water to my stomach and extra tan to my skin. I’m sure I need at least 3 months to get my skin color back and I’ll kill whoever asked me for the beach trip again. Make sure don’t be a first person okey.

2N in Phi Phi islands and 1N in Ao Nang, offered us a great package of holiday especially the 1-day island hoping on the private boat (as Donald Trump’s lifestyle so called ^_^) and the Minah Rempit series when we rented a bike at Ao Nang. First time ever I had myself to snorkeling activities at the 8 islands with different of coral pattern and colorful sea life.

The island is beautiful but much more interesting if you go with bunch of people that you love. We were laughing, taking picture with some ugly poses, UNO-ing, shopping, swimming and a lot of ‘together’ kind of activities.

Oh ya, we did learn some new words while in Krabi:-

"how long u setay here?" (how long do you stay here?)
"you here setadi or soping?" (do you here for study or shopping?)
"no polit!" (there is no police there)
"no far, 10 kilomit oli" (that's not far, 10 kilometre only)
"no esepensif.." (not expensive)

hahahah... reminded me on the my first year trying to speak English. Two thumbs up for them, at least they are trying hard. If by chance you will be travelling to Thailand, make sure to use broken english while communicating. It will help you to get to the point easily.

To my girlfriend Shaq… Happy Birthday to you, may you have a wonderful journey in your life ahead.

We were too busy and didn’t bother to have a birthday cake… so thanks for asking =)

Welcome Chinese New Year - The Year of the Tiger

CNY for me every year seems nothing except for some break during the week. But for sure, the only thing that I love most about CNY is the mandarin oranges. I can even finish the whole box as it’s really tasty, sweet and free *cough*.

But starting this year, the CNY brings me some joy and excitement since my bf is a Chinese *ehem*. We had decided to celebrate together even not to follow the Chinese traditional way of celebrating. It was nice to have him 7 days a week even during CNY. He did not go back to his hometown at Kedah since he has some family-argument going on between him and the siblings (just reserve the comment to him).

On the CNY eve, we had some nice seafood steamboat tom yam at Klang. The reunion dinner without parents, siblings and the nephews around. There was only me and him. But we still had so much fun and *burrpp* at the end.

Since we were in Klang, we made a break at one of the famous temple in Klang to see the impressive of CNY decoration. I was surprisingly to see so many people were there even on CNY eve. “Are they supposed to be at home to help the mother to decorate the house or arranging the kuih box or something?”

The place was so packed and it was really not so me to come to this kind of places. But the decoration was great to attract the guest. It was full with red and orange colors at every single corner of the temple. They also had some live show performance by the local artists which I have no idea at all who are they.

Apart of “celebration-between-boyfriend-girlfriend” kind of excitement, we were really looking forward to celebrate it this year, the day of change of the year in Chinese calendar. Last year wasn’t a good year for us; the Ram (last year was the Ox year). We had so many obstacles in career and life. I’m not going to become a superstitious here, but everything happened seems far from the coincidence. It was really as per predictions. But thank God, we manage to go through the difficulty and learned so many lessons as we go.

This year is the year of Tiger and hoping that we will be roaring well in our life with good health, more wealth and many good returns.

We both born on the same year, thus we are sharing the good and bad behavior and thought of the Ram. The prediction says that the Ram has very good compatibility to the Ram itself as a life partner. *relieve*

To all my Chinese friends, Gong Xi Fa Cai and safe journey home.

Happy New Year 2010

Happy new year all!

Here’s hope to many, many more to come!

I want to get married *ehem*

I want my parents feels proud to me as their daughter *flip hairs*

I want more salary and bonuses *Boss, please listen this*

I want my body healthy *put me on the treadmill and I’ll silent*

I want all my family and friends always next to me *sob sob*

I want my life smooth with little obstacles *I’m a small girl, cannot take pressure*

I want more money and wealth *but still a humble person*

Whatever our resolutions are, I’ hoping that all of us will achieve it!

This New Year eve, first time in my life, I had gone out to celebrate it. Still, I want (I notice that I used a lot of ‘want’ words for this year) a quite place and not pack with the humans. We knew that we can’t get this kind of place in KL, so we created our own celebration place.

On roof top of the building in the middle of the city! Not very high rise building, but we find it as the tallest around that area. Those who are staying in KL, I’m sure you are pretty familiar with it. The building where the Maybank Kg Baru branch located and just next to the Petronas station with NGV gas available. Familiar enough?

Theme of the night was WHITE 

UNO-ing before countdown

See the KLCC background at the back

Smiling face but inside only God knows that i was really afraid of height

Climb up the TNB server house to have nice view

Fireworks... i think this was from Dataran Merdeka

To watch the KL view from the bird’s eye, it was fascinating moment for me. I manage to start my New Year with friends that I love the most, with party stuff and surrounded with the fireworks from many directions.

Actually, I really scared of the high and especially when I need to look at down from the very high place. I feel some kind of feeling. Too many feelings. So that was the first and last time I’ll climb up to the building roof top.

For sure, I had very good memories to start my year and I’m hoping that next New Year eve I’ll celebrate it oversee, with some snow surrounded me. Ameen. =)

Christmas Eve @ Portugese Settlement

After a long break.. now i come back to update my blog.. itulah bila dah terlalu addicted to Facebook till forget about my blog here..

I start the new update with my last christmas eve... first time ever that i been to Portugese Settlement at Melaka. The area is not quite big but always pack during christmas eve. Imagine that all the houses were decorated with all the Christmas stuff.. full with lighting, snow man (actually made by tissue), Jesus and etc. When the countdown time.. all the houses will be opened and they served all the guests with food & drink... so sweet!

The christmas fever was so warm to everyone. Best sangat, macam dekat overseas.. cuma yang takde SNOW saja...

Enjoy the photo..
