Earth Hour

10 hours before Earth Hour, Cheepster and I attended 2 hours Eb*y Entrepreneur Seminar @ H*liday Villa. We've signed up to this free seminar last 2 weeks when Cheepster brought back a flyer. The speaker gave some good tips and ideas on how to be a more successful seller in ebay. The catch is, if you want to be a powerseller you have to sign up for their program which cost RM4k++. Huhuhu not now lah, we need the cash for lots of other things.

8 hours before Earth Hour, we made a move towards Subang area to find a place for lunch. I wanted to try out a cafe/restaurant we never went before, so i was a bit fickle looking for 'the one'. But since i was soo hungry, i became grumpy and i know Cheepster tgh tahan sabar :P Then we shoot to Sunway Pyramid, pusing new wing and old wing which we finally settled with TGIF at the new wing. How fickle is that? Heheh. So we ordered the 2 course meal and add 2 mini desserts.

Boneless chicken and mac & cheese for appetizer

Strawberry parfait and mocha latte mousse for dessert. The entree was somewhere in between.

Some random shots on panas*nic roadshow at the concourse area.

Not sure what the theme was. Because tetiba jer ada beach lak kat sini.

1 hour before Earth Hour, received a call from Wan saying that my wedding album is ready! Wohooo excitednyer. The plan was Wan will drop the album at my sis's house but she was in PD and the gate was locked. So we straightly went to Cheras to collect the album. Hiksss! Then we went to S0h0@M0nt Kiara for the first time. Sesat jugak lah kejap because i was the only one yang 'studied' the map...haha mmg takleh harap lah kan. Biler sampai tuh, agak jakun lah jugak tgk available shops kiri kanan. I think its a nice place to hang out :)

Pusing2 kat flea market and then dengar countdown for Earth Hour. Tapik tak gelap pon pffft! Wpon lampu dimmed, but i managed to do some shopping. Got myself a pair of gladiator sandals for RM30 (wheee!), 3 jibbitz for RM10 and a mini wallet by Akareka Design. Boy, she really can sew and i love her fabric collections! Check out her site if you're interested to order laptop sleeve, pouch or even prayer bag.

1 hour after Earth Hour, we dropped by at Cold Storage. Dah sejuk badan baru kuar and balik hehehe.

So, that is how i spent my Saturday and during Earth Hour. Tiring but swonottt! Toodles!

Womanizer

I prefer this version of Womanizer by All American Rejects

Hot Air Balloon Fiesta @ Putrajaya

Last Saturday, me went to Hot Air Balloon Fiesta @ Putrajaya. I was studying the itinerary before we left but little did i know that the balloon mmg takde langsung kalo time bukan 'balloon fun fly' as stated.



The weather was friggin hot at that time but perfect for outdoor photography! Tapik tgk kiri tgk kanan, kenapa ada satu belon jer?! Biler tanya orang, maka sah lah all the belons cuma ada kol 7 pagi and 5 petang. grrrr!



Since this is the only balloon yang ada so amik lah lagik for few snaps. After that we ronda2 kat the booths and beli coffee. Biler tgk balik kat tempat balloon dah takde dah hahaha sabo jelah! If we were late for few minutes sure lagik frust tgk satu hot air balloon pon takde.



Dah datang jauh2 tak dapat amik gambar banyak mana bleh. soo we stopped at one of the pjaya bridge and mik gambar lagik.



Lepas tuh we make a move to Cheras sbb ada kenduri kawen anak tok Chop. Alhamdulillah, dapat lah jugak attend and tunjuk muka, because he was my dad's best friend kat lorong tuh. So the least i could do is, attend majlis dia plak. Oh ya time borak ngan Didi, he was soo excited citer pasal squirrel yang dia jumpe the other day. Which reminds me, his birthday is approaching and he purposedly request a hamster for his birthday present. How to shop a hamster?

Laguna Redang, Day 3

Last day @ Redang :( Malehnya nak pack barang and kene naik boat balik KT. We have to check out by 11am and the boat ride is at 12pm. Lama tuh kene tunggu, and that was just only the beginning. Our flight was at 9pm so banyak giler lagik jam nak kene tunggu, huargh!



Balik from breakfast, Cheepster carik pasal bermain2 ngan kucen.



A must do activity when you're at the beach. Write names on the sand!



And favourite must shot....reflection! tih tih! But this shot salah aim sket...muka aku sparuh jek, jadiklah!



We thought we were the only couple yang flight malam, rupanya ramai giler. Hehe ada lah jugak geng nak sangap sesama. When we arrived in KT, Alhamdulillah no more seasick...pening2 lalat gituh jer. Lepas tuh saspen gak ler nak lepak mana dalam masa 6 jam tuh. So Laguna being kind, offered us to bawak jenjalan kat Chinatown for RM5 each person. Skali rupanyer bus driver tuh dropped us kat Chinatown which is tak jauh pon dari jetty SyahBandar. Lepas tuh ektibiti bebas...sukatilah nak gi mana. We were just too tired to walk around in hot weather (lagik panas dari Redang), so we entered pizza hut and lepak few hours to kill the time. Then kitowang jalan kaki gi Pasar Payang to beli kopok ikan. Terpaksa control from memborong because beg dah tak muat hak hak.



At 5pm kitowang naik bus balik pegi Laguna's Rest House. Dalam rest house tuh cuma ada rows of chairs jer for people to rest...cam ala2 terminal bus lah but with aircond and shower room. Kot sesapa yang dah rasa masam sangat bleh lah mandi kat stu. Tertido2 lah jugak kat kosi yang tak baper selesa tuh nak tunggu kol 7. Then the bus bawak gi airport...sambung tunggu lagik. Barulah dapat naik flight. Errrghh penat giler! But aperpon Redang surely be missed! Muaaahssss!!!

Laguna Redang, Day 2

Pool view from our room. Its a Deluxe room with 1 queen and 2 single beds, 1 toilet and 1 shower room and 2 seats at the balcony which is sangat lah bes untuk lepak minom teh. And oh, there's no wifi here :(



Kitowang beli seasick pills kat kedai nie. Macam2 ada...i even bought triangle bra pads insert here. Mahal gak ler RM10 for spasang sponge, but terpaksa gak ler beli because dah sampai sini baru pasan my swimsuit punyer bra pad dah ilang :P



Attached to this kedai is a beach house yang appeared in movie Summer Holiday (Richie Ren & Sammi Cheng). Nice color kan?! Citer HK tuh mmg wat kat this resort, so u can find this movie on air 24hrs in one of the channel.



My new orange speedo snorkeling gear (o.O). Towel cekelat dalam tote bag tuh hotel punyer. Yang bes kat sini tayah bawak towel langsung! Can collect and return at anytime. Tapik towel bilik takleh bawak kuar lah.



At 9am kitowang dah kumpul kat jetty area for short briefing. Layan gak dengar this guy briefed everyone bout the snorkeling session. Saper yang tak reti berenang leh pinjam lifeguard, saper yang nak mik gambar underwater leh carik photographer in charge, and so on...



All set to Marine Park! Me with two loafs of bread to feed the fishies :) Sampai jer Marine Park, tak sabar nak terjun laut. So no pixies at all because we were too bz feeding the fish. Besides cam leceh nak jaga camera takot kene air. Cheepster introduced me to a yellow-grey fish species which are soo jinak cam dolphin! Nak makan roti nyer pasal sampai sanggup kuar surface and nganga mulut besar2....kasik pegang lak tuh! Aihhh cute giler!!! Yang stripes species makan cam piranha, gigit blah gigit blah. Mmg tak kasik chance pegang langsung. But this yellow-grey fish mmg sporting abes! Besnyer kalo dapat amik gambar, next time lah kot beli underwater disposable camera, maybe!



Around 12pm, back to Laguna. Sleepy and starving. Again, the buffet was superb...especially this carving station yang paling fames skali. Slalu serve roast chicken, grilled lamb, roast beef, sate dan yang swaktuh dengannyer.



Lepas abes makan tuh ternampak this squirrel tgh ronda2 carik makan. Mula2 cam segan, lepas tuh dia geram tgk food kot dia lompat kat meja orang. Menjerit lah jugak chinese lady tuh tgk squirrel nih nak wat rampasan roti. And then there was a cool mat salleh lady hulur danish roll kat squirrel nie. Comey jer tgk dia pegang and pusing2 food tuh.



Kol 3pm, wpon nantok kitowang kuar balik to join snorkeling session kat tempat lain plak. Rugi lah plak kan datang jauh2 snorkel skali jek. This time, orang boat tuh drop us at tetengah laut...again no pixies. Ikan tak sebes cam kat marine park and coral pon tak lawa, but this time i just enjoyed the swimming and floating. Biler dah penat, soh Cheepster tarik jer....cepat sket sampai. Sbb sekali dia kuak, 5 kali aku punyer kuak baru dapat folo blakang dia.



Malam lak kitowang lawat resort sblah yang quite happening. Ada warung kopi jual burger, minimart and open air disco. Luper lak nak check nama resort tuh.



To be continued sket lagik....

Laguna Redang, Day I

Honeymoon entry! Our recent trip to Laguna Redang was great! Would lurveee to go there again sometime in June where the beach is at its best. Let's start with Day 1, the morning we were flying off to K.Terengganu mmg kelam kabut sbb lambat wahahaha. By the time we reached LCCT, we were 5mins late. And then carik checked-in counter tak jumpe because dah tutup So another 5mins running here and there when the guard told us to check with counter 58 for last resort. A few peeps depan kitowang ada yang tak lepas masuk, i'm not sure where is their destination but you can imagine how pucat we were at that time. We were so surprised, when the staff printed our boarding pass and checked in the luggage with no questions asked. Alhamdulillah, mmg rezeki kitowang. Dah pegang boarding pass, then only i remember to breathe heheh. Lesson learned :P



Sampai KT airport, trus gi counter laguna to register our names and then trus masuk bus yang dah siap tunggu kat luar. Ramai pulak rupanyer yang nak gi laguna....sampai penuh and ada yang duduk berpangku. After few minutes drive, the bus stopped at Jetty ShahBandar and not Mersing Jetty as the original plan.



Thats the small boat yang bawak kitowang merentas lautan begelora, merempuh ombak yang ganas, memasamkan udara dengan bau peluh and muntah2 passenger yang seasick. Termasuk lah my other half, Cheepster. 3 kali muntah sampai tada benda nak kuarkan because we didn't take any breakfast that morning, cian dier! When i entered the boat, i'm all set to seasick mode. I shall not make a hyper move or talk actively because i will get terrible hedek and throw up. But instead, Cheepster yang kene wpon he never experience seasick before. The laut was choppy and i can say it was a miserable 2 hours journey for all the passengers!



Cheepster was flat and tired by the time sampai laguna. Sampai2 lak kene dengar intro speech by the laguna's staff. Haih! But biler jalan masuk jer nampak gorgeous beach ahead, paler dah ringan balik! Hu yeahhh!!



The food was just awesome! Buffet but sedap and banyak giler choice!



Lepas makan2 tuh, gi jalan kat beach jap to inhale the refreshing salty air hehe :) There was a snorkeling session at 3pm on that day, but we were just too tired and recovering from the awful seasick effect. Then we went to search for seasick pill for the next day snorkeling session.



To be continued...

Windshield leak

I have this leaking problem on my windshield. Something got to do with the getah longgar or something. But whatever it is, whenever its raining heavily, the bumbung keta will bocor especially biler main corner2 kat simpang. Its very annoying to handle the steering when its wet! And today i think it's getting worse. Tak corner pon bocor jugak! Whoaaa cam kene letak baldi lak kat sblah...baju pon basah :(

Aper susah gi antar kedai je lah kan? kalo tunggu lama kang berkarat lak dalam tuh or ada water stain. but the last time i asked per*dua service centre to fix the getah, they said the whole cermin kene cabut but since ada crack on my windshield dorang tak brani cabut unless i want to replace the whole cermin. Erk! Hold lagik lapan lagik.

Random Rants

Pickles of the week

I was driving home yesterday. When i reached the last toll at NPE, i chose the touch n go lane instead of smart tag. Why? because there are so many cars and i get nervous using smart tag when ppl tailgate me too close. Kodi :P but i'm not a big fan of smart tag. Ok back to the citer, there was a Swift car in front of me tgh queue, and the lane is moving smoothly but suddenly dia pasang signal kiri. i was like "ait dah nak dekat pon nak masuk lane lain?" but the driver doesn't show any attempt nak tukar lane. So what's with the signal? sampai lah driver tuh bayar toll, the signal is still blinking. urghh sbb tuh pon aku leh terannoyed...jahatnyer aku neh.

Pastuh time bayar, tetiba dengar bunyi gedegang! musbi ada keta kene hempap ngan toll barrier!! shitt siannyer. lepas jer tol i glanced to the smart tag lane, there was a kelisa car stopped in front of the barrier and the driver got out from the car. But i didn't manage to watch the whole thing, kang tehegeh2 marah lak keta blakang. I wonder kemmik kah bumbung keta dia because bunyik mmg kuat! Barrier tuh ada balut ngan sponge ke? And that is definitely ONE of the reason i'm so nervous with smart tag lane! Worried if i was too fast or too slow.

And today lepas toll batu3 at guiness factory exit, i saw a huge kepala trailer kat tetengah jalan. From a long distant, nampak cam accident but biler dah dekat rupanya the trailer was trying to make u-thant and nak masuk jalan. So even the road is 3 lanes, the trailer is having a hard time to adjust. But the worst thing is, that exit is supposedly a one way street. so that means the driver was completely in a wrong lane! Dahler wat chaos kat stu, baper banyak keta kene stop nak tunggu dia corner masuk jalan besar. Its either the driver was drunk or was just taking a short cut.

A sort of picks of the week

I attended a 3 days training in HQ about project management. The course is basically about project manager's roles and responsibilities, and how to think like em. Just a basic foundation lah, not for PMP certification heheh. It's a good course and an eye opener...that i don't want to be a Proj. Manager! Hahaha tak berciter2 tinggi langsung. I know its a cool job with big fat salary but i can't imagine myself doing 'all that'.

And oh during that training, one of the participants said i looked like her niece. and then the trainer plak which is a chinese guy said i looked like his cousin. Hahaha i em so mixed and muka bersepah.

Earlier of the week i was suspected kene chicken pox because ada kuar measles on my hands mostly. Biler gi jumpe doctor, he said it MIGHT be a chicken pox, but slagik x kuar cam gelembung air tuh he can't be sure. Cheishh, tak convincing langsung! How can the doctor not know? He made me miserable for 2 days thinking that it might be a chicken pox and all the suffering i will go through. But after lumuq calamine lotion cam tepung gomak, the measles are gone! Alhamdulillah :) The type of measles is yet to remained unknown.

And that would be all...heheh (^o^) Toodles

Panggilan Pulau

Our honeymoon at Redang Island. More pixies soon! :)

Bonding with nature

I'm going to Redang tomorrow yeay! My first trip with Cheepster naik flight and boat huhu. I did my best to handover some of the important stuff to Ayna last Friday, i even spam her inbox with pesanan penaja. Hopefully it's enuff to cover my 4 days absence so that she don't have to call me or somebody else make her to call me....



Because i'm bonding with nature and i want to do it peacefully :) I've been looking forward to this trip since last year so i hope it's worth the wait. Although the beach just open to public so i don't expect much, but at least i can relax and rejuvenate with my bebeh! Toodles!
