Langkawi Trip Mission : Part 2

Took me a while before I can update again hey :) It's just that I m bit busy  and occupied with other matter (*sigh). Let's continued from the last cliff-hanger of my trip to Langkawi last February...

On the 3rd day, managed to explore the west area of Langkawi; hiked up to Telaga Tujuh, walking around the Oriental Village while waiting for our turn to ride the famous Langkawi Cable Car Telaga. Can you believe that we have to wait for 2 hours before our turn (maybe because it was peak season huh? ) then queue up for approximately another 45min before we finally had our ride but the wait worth it because of the magnificent view from up there (*smile). I remembered how I grabbed the lady's thigh beside me when the cable car suddenly stopped and for quite sometime!! I bet I might looked as white as chalk (*LOL). Luckily it moved again after 5-10min hanging there..phewww! A bit disappointed because the Skybridge was closed for maintenance. I was out of luck..I know (*sigh again).  Later in the evening, managed to catch the sunset view at Telaga Harbor Park & Kok Beach. At night, went to Kuah Town and did shop-hopping at the duty free shop there. 

Malu2 posing :P

The waterfall really nice

The Seven Well - There were 7 small well-looked alike

Boleh tahan la this place

The pass to ride the cable car & the cable car

Muka excited, before the cable stopped - poor lady on my left, became the victim of my hands (LOL)

Under Maintenance again..

Okay, mikirayou for a while because an handsome guy help snapped the pic for me :P

The Harbor, before and after sunset..

That's all for now.. Don't want to promise when can post the next part, the finale one but will try to finish selecting and editing the pics then upload it the soonest possible (*finger crossed). 

Good Night everyone!

Langkawi Trip Mission : Part 1

Hi everyone!

Sorry for the late update about this so-called solo trip of mine.. I know you all are so keen to hear about it right? (*silakan muntah...LOL).

I guess all of you already know where was my destination right? Yep, Langkawi! I choose this Island because I never been there and always wanted to go there but never got the chance.

I departed from LCCT at 1930hrs and reached Langkawi around 2010hrs and have to wait until 9.30pm for  my host - Kak Zue (hotel/room owner) to fetch me at the airport only to inform me that there was some mistake and I have to stay at her friend homestay for 1 night! Ok, I was shocked but at the same time grateful because she solved the problem and more thankful because I have a place to stay that night.. Cobaan on my 1st night in stranger place (*sigh)...

Free Map given by the car rental agency booth at the airport. It became my best friend during this trip :)

The next day, my original plan to go to Gunung Raya cancelled because I have to check out from Kak Zue's friend homestay and check in to my room at her place. So, I went to have a look at Pantai Cenang 1st and as what I read from reviews / blogs, this area was super-packed! The beach was fully occupied by foreigner who trying to get sun-tanned and also the locals. So was the hotel in this area!  All was fully booked until 15th Feb! There were not much I did on that 1st day but window shopping at the Cenang Area and later went to Kota Mahsuri and  the Monday Night Market to buy dinner..

This is the only area that less crowded at Pantai Cenang

Monday Night Market

I look fat in this pic..I loike..Oh My English! :P

Next day, drove to Gunung Raya with intention to do some hiking or trekking but this plan also aborted because of the warning from local people about snake that going down the mountain during dry season plus the car was running out of fuel..HMPPPFFF! kecewa lagi! However,  managed to cover area such as Black Sand Beach, Telaga Air Hangat, Durian Perangin Waterfall and Wildlife Park on that day. So terubat juga la kekecewaan di hati :P 

View from midway of Gunung Raya

I snapped this cute hungry monkey on the way back to the main road (at least)

Posing on the black sand :D

Hahaha.. Childish hey!

Posing dulu before doing the easy trekking to the waterfall

Pics of the waterfall

At the wildlife Park.. Hmmm, the park was as boring as the worker expression ..LOL!

Soaking my feet in the lukewarm water.. Not really as lukewarm as Poring tho :P

It's past 10pm now, so that's all for now.. To be continue in part 2!.. Hopefully will post it by tomorrow night? (*wink2)..

Oh ya, before you all started kutuk2 my 'fugly' pics, please be inform that I am no professional photographer and all pics took by my phone camera and also borrowed Olympus digital camera ok.. Wait till I have usin will buy those expensive DSLR  (*wink2).

Good night everyone!

Mission In Progress!

Hey you all! Miss me??

Been super busy at office these few weeks and actually still busy till Chinese New year holiday. Well, I have an hour before going back home, so I am taking this opportunity to 'mengular' and sharing few things with you all.

Remember when I said I am going to travel alone soon in my past entry? Yep, I have planned everything and hopefully those 'everything' will goes smoothly. The hardest part was getting 'green light' from the husband. I been planning all of this project of mine since December last year and only 2 weeks ago did I got his approval though he is still a bit reluctant to let me proceed with this whole 'lone ranger' mission of mine (*roll eyes). Thank you so much  for letting me doing this and take care of the children! I'll buy you nice souvenirs okay (*wink2)!

Just when I thought I have everything in hand, I got an email from the site where I booked my hostel/hotel, informing me about refunding me because the hotel/hostels I booked were full, that there was a technical mistake / miscommunication between them and the hostel/hotel management. Honestly, I was panicked but thank God that I managed to find another place to stay and this time I booked it directly from the owner.

Initially, I was planning to go by bus/train, but yesterday I changed my plan and decided to go there by flight instead. I know it means extra budget but at least it save the traveling time.. *Ayat bikin sadap hati seja tu.

I have done my 'homework' to google up all the place I must go, things I must do and souvenirs I should buy and make a list of it. I also been reading tips about traveling alone from online forum/discussion and takes note about it especially tips concerned about safety matter. My hubby said, "semangat giler die!".. LOL!

Gosh, Times up! Have to go back now to fetch my kids from their daycare center. I'll try to post about my preparation for this mission of mine again soon.. And Nope, I won't spill out my destination until mission accomplished! To those who knew (Attn: Just), psstt, diam2 dulu ah!

To those live in Putrajaya, Labuan & Kuala Lumpur, Happy Holiday!

Note: Below Pic have nothing to do with the entry.. Seja2 mikirayou! HAHAHA!

Any contribution, little or big amount are highly appreciated. Rather than giving RM1 to the beggar that we don't even know weather they really are people in need or part of those beggar syndicate, why not contribute it to this Orphanage that we know exist and really need our help.

We also grateful if you can help us to spread this message to people out there. May God bless you all for your kindness and compassion..

Now Or Never

Pic of the recent book I am reading (edited)

As people busy planning their upcoming CNY holiday, I am busy with my own planning to tick off one of my wish list this year as well... Since I am too chicken to travel as lone ranger to oversea, I decided to do it locally and it going to happen soon (*winking)!

I am always craved for challenge and activities that will give me a rush of adrenaline and my coming soon lone ranger trip gonna involved activities such as trekking, hiking and if there is any available; bungee jumping! Yay!

I m not going to reveal where I am going because everything is still in planning and I am still asking people around and searching here and there about the place I m going to, things to do there, hotel/motel/backpacker hostel I can stay and also how to move around there.

Some people might think I am selfish or crazy but I just want to make my dreams come true when I am healthy and have energy to do it. Being married with 4 kids doesn't mean I can't live my life to the fullest and make my own dream come true right? Before this I was too concerned about certain parties happiness that I forgot about my own dreams and happiness.. My kids are exceptional tho.. I also got a bad critic from my in law side but this time I just ignore their negative thinking because I know I am not anything wrong and I am doing all of this making my dreams come true project at my own expenses.. I don't want to live in regret when I know I can achieve one or two of my childhood dreams but never try or fight to make it real.. Semangat tomod tih (*LOL)!

That's all I wanna say for now. Tomorrow I am going to write a donation petition for this charity event I am going to join next month and hopefully will get some support/donation  from my fellow follower and also from those who stop by my blog. So, stay tuned for tomorrow entry ya!

Happy Friday & Happy Weekend in advance everyone!

Turning Point & Resolutions

It's 1st day and night of year 2013 already and tomorrow school session will start and my routine of waking up early in the morning to prepare the kids to school and daycare center will starting over again. No more waking up at 7.30am except weekends..LOL! Thank God, despite of few problem, kids school preparation went smoothly..

I have few resolution and goals that I set up for year 2013 but I am not going to reveal it because you know me...LOL.. But I really hope that I can achieve one or two of it by the end of the year (*finger crossed).

People said, at some point, when you have enough of those suffering life you been through because of others, you will find the strength to raise above and stand up for yourself. At this point, you won't care about what people think about you because for such a long time you been holding up yourself for their benefit, sacrificing your own feeling and happiness.

I believe everyone have or will undergo a turning point in their life and that also include me.. I am not sure where this turning point will lead me but I know that I have to do it sooner if I want to live happily without regret.. I am still in early stage of my new direction and lots of people may look down at me or worst may labelled me as selfish and stupid but someone had told me that nobody can judge us unless they have live and walked our journey. People may said that it's too late for me but I have faith that nothing is too late and it's better now or never.

Somebody talking riddles here huh(*rolled eyes)! Actually, what I am trying to say here is I am going to fulfill some of my dream i.e traveling to other country (*finger crossed). Most people trying to fulfilling their dream before get married and have kids whilst me doing it afterward..weird huh? Actually, I was too busy to enlarge my 'rakyat' before this beside that fact that I was financially can't afford to do it before. Well, still in tight budget but traveling once or twice a year won't do me harm, hopefully.. After working hard, we deserve to pamper/reward ourselves right?

Year 2013 will be more challenging for me because some aspect of my life will be change in near future. I pray that everything will be fine and I can keep my head up without regret or bitterness (*smile).

Well, may all of us have a happy and joyous life ahead in year 2013..Until next entry, good night everyone!

Summin' Up 2012 - Happy New Year 2013

In less than 4 hours, year 2012 will be ended and New Year 2013 begin and as I 'stealing' time to write this down, I re-play & reflected all the happy, sad, sweet and bitter memories along year 2012 in my mind with a smile and grateful heart because against odds, I managed to fulfill some of my goal that I been set - getting my driving license, settling few debts, bringing all my kids to my village, rewarding myself with smartphone & driving here and there by myself.. Yay!

I even managed to have my own car which I planned to buy next year (*smile ear to ear..LO).. Yes, many other things happened unexpectedly but still I am thankful because all of those things taught me to be stronger and wiser woman..

As a conclusion, year 2012 had been good and fruitful for me despite of the few unhappy things. Well, life isn't a life without bit of obstacles here and there to color and spice it up, right?? 

Yeah, as many years before, since I was in secondary school, I will set up another resolutions/goals for me, hoping that the next 365 days will be nice to me and I will able to achieve 1 or two of my goal (*God willing)..

So, I wish all my families, relatives, friends and to all people all over the world a very Happy New Year 2013. May the New Year 2013 will bring us happiness, joy, prosperity and peacefulness all over the world.
