New year is coming sooner that I expected. Time for a brand new year resolution. Start new year with a brand new energy. Here are my bucketlist that I really hope manage to be cross off by the end of 2017.

Solo Trip

This is the one thing that I really want to experience. Some may asked, why would you go alone when you can have friends or anyone tag along? Well it is definitely hard to find someone that share 90% and above, the same interest with you. If you ever find one, you are really lucky. Tie them quickly and don't let them go! Often you found yourself or the other party to give in a little bit to make the trip a success. Solo travel will give a new refreshing experience. You are in control of everything from the start till the end. There are times where we really need some me time.

Own New Gadgets

I'm planning to get a new phone, laptop and camera. Seems like too much but all three of them is equally important. It is not like I don't own one at all but the one that I had is not functioning in their full capacity. It's been years. Oh and a gopro? This one is more of a want than need. Need to work hard to afford it all. If that is too much, let me have at least one of them for next year.

Adventurous Activities

Wouldn't say that I'm a adventurous person but definitely love to challenge and push myself to the limit. That is why I need a positive and supportive people near me as inspiration and boost my confidence. I can't do it alone.

Overcome Obesity

I just want to be healthy and feel good about myself. There are so many bad things come with obesity and I do not want to fall sick due to my laziness and carelessness. Slowly but surely. It is okay not to reach a normal weight but at least stay out of obesity range.

Blood Donation

I'm really scared of blood. The sight of blood make me really uncomfortable and sick. But but but I really want to do this at least once in my life time. It is for a good cause! I think I am ready. Oh I don't even know what is my blood type is. 😅


That's all I can think right now. Till then. . .

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Assalamualikum, hi!

Part 1 | Part 2

Jom sambung cerita the next day.


15 July 2016

Started the day a litle bit late. Today's tour started at 9.00am jadi kitorang ada banyak sikit masa santai. Hari ni kitorang ambil pakej Emerald Pool, Hot Spring, Elephant Trekking and Tiger Caves including halal lunch for THB700.

Pagi-pagi turun pergi breakfast tempat semalam since kedai dekat and boleh tahan sedap. Back to the hotel and get ready sambil pray Ya Allah please let the weather be sunny and nice for today. Pukul 9 dah turun tunggu kat lobby hotel dengan excitednya.





Waited till almost 9.30 tapi takde pun anyone datang jemput. Pelik sebab semalam kemain on time. Nasib baik akak receptionist ada mintak tolong call the tour company since their num is on the receipt. Called and found out yang the guide/driver of the day waited for us at the wrong hotel! Must be miscommunication between the staffs. Nasib baik we are restless and cepat-cepat try contacted them. Kalau tak masing-masing macam orang tak betul tunggu kat tempat yang salah.

First stop, tiger caves. Lebih kurang batu caves la kena panjat tangga untuk jumpa patung budha besar kat atas tu. We didnt manage to naik sampai atas, sightseeing kat bawah je. Dulu ada harimau yang jaga tempat ni sekarang tinggal kandang dia jelah.









Lepas habis visit the temple we move to our next place, elephant trekking. About 5 minutes je dari temples tu. I've been to Thailand a few times tapi ni first time naik gajah. Mixed feeling about this jugak sebab you know i'm not comfortable with any animals kan. Tapi haruslah cuba demi pengalaman.

Sampai setengah jalan, penjaga gajah tu berhentikan gajah then ask us nak dia tolong tangkapkan gambar tak. Our respond mesti la 'eh boleh je' then dia kata tapi kena bayar dia la. We were like alamak we didn't allocate any budget here. Patutnya this trip tak keluar duit langsung. Teruslah jadi 'erm no thanks'. Lepas tu dia keep asking betul ke taknak ada gambar langsung dengan gajah. Bila tanya berapa dia boleh kata up to you kira seikhlas hati lah adoi lemah betul.

uncle ni mungkin part time photographer

skill dia boleh tahan

mei the elephant pun kemain pose

Akhirnya kitorang give the uncle THB150. Kira seorang THB50 la boleh la buat belanja dia tengah panas-panas tu. Lepas dari situ beralih pulak ke kolam air panas. Yang ni kena jalan ke dalam sikit sebab kereta boleh masuk takat kat pintu je. Otw tu ada la changing room tempat tukar baju nak mandi kan.




Seronok tau main celup-celup kaki kat air suam-suam panas ni. Tapi dia dah kasi warning awal-awal jangan berendam lama sangat, Too much of sulphur pun tak elok untuk badan, Paling afdal dalam 20 minit je.




Lepas tu off to emerald pool. At that time blue pool is closed for maintenance tapi takpe life must go on. Lunch hari ni nasi goreng cina dengan telur goreng kat kedai halal depan pintu masuk emerald pool. Kena isi perut dulu bagi ada energy nak jalan jauh.



Around satu kilometer jugak la nak jumpa pool tu dari pintu masuk.  Dia ada 2 jalan, satu jauh sikit than the other one. Ikut suka la nak lalu mana tapi mestilah kitorang chose the shorter one. Jalan lurus je pool ada at the end of the trail tu

akhirnya sampai

Dapat mandi dalam dua jam okay la walaupun tak puas sangat. Masing-masing tak bawa baju salin so dengan baju basah lembap tu naik la van untuk balik hotel. Guide tu kata takde hal la basah sikit ni. Masalahnya perjalanan balik makan masa lebih kurang 2 jam dengan traffic sesak petang tu lagi sebab weekend buat we regret our decision tak tukar baju kering. Sejuk beku duduk dalam van tu sampai dalam hati doa cepatlah sampai i'm so uncomfortable nak mandi nak tukar baju nak selimut.


SAMBUNG SINI

Siapa yang layan the most famous korean drama this year, DOTS mesti tau la pasal a coffee shop tempat Captain Yoo and Seargent Seo suka lepak. Francise dia dah kat Malaysia for awhile dah. They had an outlet dekat DPluze, Cyberjaya tapi now dah tutup. So pergi the next nearest outlet IOI Mall Putrajaya la.

Sebab malaysia ni panas, bingsu sound so good banding coffee.




We order these and it cost us. .


Harga standard coffee shop yang lain. Definitely not murah but somehow reasonable.




I really like the vibe and environment. Rasa macam tak kesah lepak sini lama-lama buat assignment or kerja. Mungkin sebab tak ramai orang. Pastu ada corner dia letak ipad untuk dengar lagu. Sangat sesuai untuk anyone yang datang sendiri. Chill, have a good coffee, read and listen to some music.


They had like 4 different bingsu flavour and i think i make a great choice ambil yang ini. This is delicious, sweet sour and tak memuakkan. Sangat fit my taste of a good dessert. Saiz hidangan memang sangat sesuai untuk 3 orang makan.


This on the other hand, is very normal parfait, not really a fan of the cream. Quite mahal so it is a miss for me, not going to order this again.

Simple happiness in life : good food

Wouldn't mind coming back to taste the other desserts they have.

My youngest sister, Ain is now 5 years old and dah pergi tadika. Gosh i felt so old rasa macam semalam dukung dia for the first time and rasa eh keciknya budak ni. Now dah sebesar gajah heee jk. Saya orang yang responsible to jemput dia balik sekolah tiap hari since i started this semester sebab tak busy and all my class is in the evening. So rutin harian tiap kali dah dalam kereta otw nak balik rumah tu is of course tanya how's school, belajar apa tadi dan lain-lain soalan rasmi. Kalau ikut mood baik dia kita tak sempat tanya dah sibuk bercerita but if datang mood tak elok kita tanya apa pun jawapan dia muncung jelah.


So our conversation last week went like this


I was taken aback and terus ada mixed feeling. Like i dont know i should be laughing ke sebab it is so funny how she went all serious curious nak tau siapa Fatihah or risau betul ke dia serious tak pernah belajar Al-Fatihah kat sekolah. So i slowly recite the surah then fortunately she boleh ikut and sambung. Haa i knew it! Sebenarnya she already knew, heard and learned about surah Al-Fatihah but somehow it has been lost in her memory. Benda basic kot dalam kelas agama.


Wait whut?? Rupanya cikgu agama tadika tu dia panggil teacher Allah. Jenuh la aku nak hadam kosa kata budak ni bagi tak misunderstand.





Budak ni kalau kita layan perangai dia memang takkan pernah habis hahahaha.

Hohohoi setelah sekian lamaaaaaaaa..

Setahun

Sebenarnya beribu kali rasa nak give up siapkan entry ni tapi ntah kenapa tak sanggup nak tekan button delete tu. Kalau tinggal draft mesti rasa semacam tak syok ah so here we go




Ni itinery breakdown segala apa yang saya buat sepanjang kat sana. Nah part1 yang tak seberapa hikhoks


26 Januari 2015




Punya la excited tepat pukul 6.45pm dah sampai kat gate eh belum bukak lagi. Okay chill la g toilet dulu. Then back to the gate, cantik dah bukak yeayy dah nak berlepas.




Tunggu punya tunggu dah 7.15pm pesawat tak muncul-muncul. Then tetiba ada announcement flight to langkawi mengalami kelewatan blablabla. Haha padan muka niat nak cepat la sampai sebab memasing penat berjaga yesterday night konon excited.







Touch down langkawi terus masuk convinient store cari maggie buat bekalan time darurat. Spend about RM10 for jajan. Then we took taxi pergi kuah where our hotel located. Lepas settle down kat bilik semua it's time to cari makan. Penat tapi mana boleh nak tidur dengan perut lapar. Time sampai tadi nampak ada kedai makan tak jauh kat depan hotel so yeah dapat makan nasi. Habis la jugak RM7 for makan malam.







27 Januari 2015


We started our day lambat sebab nak tunggu kereta sampai pukul 11am. Sok sek sok sek pukul 1230pm jugak la baru reti keluar bilik and start our journey. Haha ni last lain kali tak buat dah. So first destination? Dah sampai pulau mesti la kena tengok laut dulu kan. Ambil angin kat pantai jap then cari makan! Paling penting.










Off to pantai cenang la jalan-jalan kat sana sambil cari lunch.





Last2 we decide to pergi makan kat jalan airport. Makanan kat kedai sepanjang jalan kat situ dah murah sedap pulak. Murah and sedap memang aim kami yang budget concern ni so basically till right before nak balik kl, if kitorang lalu dekat2 mesti singgah makan kat sini je.

Lepas kenyang makan, off to cable car!




Kalau pergi langkawi kan wajib la naik cable car. Sejak July 2014 dah ada SkyDome before naik SkyCab tu. SkyDome ni cam 3D movie, screen dia ada effect berpusing-pusing kot memang boleh buat orang sensitive pening.






Waktu ni SkyBridge still under maintainace. Maybe now dah lagi lawa la kan SkyBridge tu dah bukak. Harga exact ticket dah lupa hoi lama sangat, catit memana pun tak. Tapi kitorang ambil combo package sekali dengan 6D Cinemotion ha tang tu syok. Around RM30-RM35 kot. Time kitorang tengok 6D tu takde orang. Kakak yang jaga tu cam kesian kot tengok reaction budak jakun terlebih excited ni eh dapat la layan benda tu dua kali.


Lepas penat habiskan masa kat gunung mat cincang tu, turun singgah dataran lang. Malam dah by the time sampai situ. Oh actually original plan nak singgah kat Beras Terbakar but being us yang fail bab time management ni tempat tu dah sunyi dah masa kitorang sampai nak dekat maghrib tu, Kedai sekeliling pun dah tutup. Lupa tempat kat sini yang active time malam mostly pantai cenang and bandar kuah je.



Datang sini beside nak snap picture buat kenangan, nak tengok package island hopping. Kat jeti tu kan ada banyak je kaunter jual ticket island hopping. Kitorang ambil package basic yang bagi helang makan, beras basah and tasik dayang bunting tu pagi la harga pun lupa sudah lama sangat ya ampun. Yang penting dia jemput hantar from hotel ke jeti kuah tu rasanya most island hopping package kat situ harga and package lebih kurang sama saje.


28 Januari 2015


Bangun lambat! Janji orang tu jemput kat hotel pukul 7.30, kitorang bangun pukul 7.15 hahahaha pe lagi zap zup zasss bersiap yang penting je. Nasib baik tak kena tinggal. The van driver singgah our hotel first actually, tapi tengok takde orang he went to pick up others dulu then last baru datang balik pick us up.

Basic island hopping package ada bagi helang malan, singgah beras basah and tasik dayang bunting. Unfortunately, according to abang yang bawak bot, at that time air surut kat pulau beras basah. Kan tujuan pergi sana nak mandi laut but cemana nak mandi kalau air laut surut. Atas persetujuan semua orang dalam bot tu we end up tak singgah pulau beras basah but pergi mandi laut dekat pulau kosong ntah mana nasib baik air cantik jernih nearby dayang bunting tu.






Balik dari island hopping rehat kejap then bersiap cari lunch and jalan keliling pulau. We end up habiskan masa tengok sunset kat pantai tanjung rhu (at first lupa nama pantai but thank god ada record video berguna jugak).












29 Januari 2015


Last day dah. Misi hari ini adalah borong coklat! Not really borong la kan ke budget traveller mana boleh spend on benda tak berapa penting but memang rugi sangat la kalau tak beli langsung coklat kalau dah sampai langkawi.

Flight petang around alamak dah lupa hahaha tu la kau cerita tahun lepas peram lama sangat habis lupa segala details. Pagi-pagi terus check out and singgah telaga air panas. Lepas tu baru proceed to shopping cenderahati kat area pekan kuah.







dah jom balik!
