Cameron Highland, the land of the strawberries!

August 26th, 2008 · No Comments

During my recent holiday I went to Cameron Highland. Was only there for 3 days, so I didn’t do much.

On the way to cameron Highlands

On the way to Cameron Highlands. I didn’t take this way up. I took the newer road at Simpang Pulai.

I stayed at Puncak Arabela Apartments located somewhere in Tanah Rata. No  air cond provided.

Strawberryfied

When you’re up here be careful not to get strawberryfied.

Hi!

The weather here is just nice. I only had to do this after bathing because father could not find the air con switch. =(

Jogging in the rain

The weather is nice for jogging. Especially when its raining. The coldness makes you run faster so that you don’t freeze.

scones

I went to T Cafe at Tanah rata. The scones are quite nice.
(ignore the bite, I was hungry)

lovelycar

Cool truck. I want one for myself. Anyone knows where to get one? Then I can deliver strawberries down Cameron Highlands.

Don\'t end up like this

Just hope I don’t end up like this

Bharat tea plantation

I didn’t stop by the tea plantations as all they have here is tea and I went there before.

On the way down!

On the way down cameron highlands. I took the newer way again.

Rapid kl is rap-ed

August 19th, 2008 · No Comments

Not only is it the school holiday this week, Its MUFY holiday too!

Well, I can’t post about my current holiday yet. I just came back from a tour with my college so i am busy processing the photographs.( I suck at photoshop)

Heres what happened a long long time ago during my last holiday.

My friends invited me to One Utama. I can’t drive(actually I can, its just that my parents wont let me drive without a license) so the only way there is by public transport.

Waiting for the bus at pyramid

I was lazy to walk 1 km to the nearest bus stop so I got my mom to fetch me to pyramid to catch a bus there. There I waited for bus T623 that was “suppose” to take me to Kelana Jaya but It didn’t came. After 45 minutes of waiting I got fed up and took a bus to Kl Sentral.

Kl sentral bus stop

Tadaa. KL Sentral bus station. All Utama(trunk) buses stops here.

Rapid Kl
Rapid KL bus. Colourful


To one utama

At KL Sentral waiting for the bus to 1 U to arrive.

Kl sentral bus station

Damn, that’s not my bus.

After waiting for more than 15 minutes, the bus finally arrived.

driver

The bus driver.

It took 1 hour to reach my 1 Utama cause it had to detour to TTDI and somewhere else. In the end the total time it took to reach 1 Utama was 3 hour. Luckily I reached just in time for my movie.

Getting back was worse. I waited for bus for 1 hour and it didn’t came. Thank god my bro was nice enough to drive all the way there and fetch me back.

Conclusion: I need a driving licence and a car ASAP!

Surfing penguin cooking rat

August 3rd, 2008 · No Comments

Yesterday I spent my time watching animated movies. One was about a rat and another one was about penguins.

Surfing penguins

Surf up was quite cool. It was about a teenage penguin, Cody who went all the way to Pengu Island to join a surfing competition. There he had a big wipe out and made some friends, and a hot chick(are penguins chicks?)

In the tube

The penguins made surfing seems so fun. I can imagine myself surfing in the tube while watching the movie.

Rat cooking

Ratatouille is about this cute rat named Renny who cooks better than me. OMG a rat cooking better than me? I am jealous. Maybe I should start finding rats to cook for me now.

The two movies made me realize that there is so much more to life. There are so many things which i haven’t tried. Surfing and cooking amazing dishes is one thing, but I am sure there is a whole world out there for me to explore. We’ll I save the exploring for later. Maybe after I get my degree.

Right now, I want to go surfing but I don’t think the waves in Malaysia are surfable. The only place I can surf close to home is in Sunway Lagoon.(no surfing penguins there though). Anyone wanna go surfing with me??? Penguins and chickens can come too.

Or maybe I should just wait till next year. I am thinking of going to Australia next year to enjoy!~!

Malaysia vs chelsea

July 29th, 2008 · 2 Comments

Its 30 minutes into the match against Malaysia vs Chelsea. Unfortunately, I didn’t went to Shah Alam Stadium to watch the match.

I thought since it was a match with the Malaysian team in Malaysian grounds, there would be a  broadcast live on TV. Seriously, why is this match not on national television. I am sure a lot of Malaysians would want to support the Malaysian team.

In fact, even Astro didn’t broadcast this match. Other channels in other countries actually have a live telecast of this small friendly match.

I had to watch a internet streaming to see the Malaysian team in action. Too bad, it was laggy and the images were blur. I closed the stream after the first goal.

Go Malaysia. You can score an equaliser and then score the winning goal!!!

You know, I have always though that the Malaysian music industry has no hope.

Apparently things are changing, Malaysian Artistes For Unity(MAFU) has produced a music video which sounds interesting.

Check it out.

Unfortunately things here aren’t as united as the video now.
