singapore: planning your trip :)

assalamualaikum

Singapore marked as the fourth country that i've conquered this year. So we heard about this place called Universal studio in Sentosa Island Singapore...and luckily we stumbled upon a flight ticket with reasonable bargain. Off we (me, dilla, Kak vee and Kak Ju) to Changi Airport, Singapore. Since our focus is the Universal Studio Singapore (USS) alone, we did not really explore other places.

before i go on telling you what so good about this Universal Studio, let me just share on how to make your trip possible.


So,

How to plan your trip?

Paris: the Eiffel Tower

After 8 hour journey by coach (or bus) from Amsterdam, we arrived in Paris! From the Euroline coach station, we took a tube from Gallieni to Volontaires station, which was nearby to the place we’ll be staying throughout the 3 days 2 nights journey. The rides took about 45minutes.

 The weather was cold that day, the wind felt like sharp knives stabbing your skin. We got no idea where to go, ask around and were directed to Rue Borromee, the location of pre-booked hostel. We checked in, kept our heavy backpack, took a refreshing shower, get a good map and head down the road. The first destination……Eiffel Tower!! This tower used to be one of the 7 wonders of the world, and now, it remains the main attraction to visit Paris.

huh, finally!

A day in Amsterdam

The journey from London-France-Amsterdam took almost 12 hours. We took a coach from London, then board a ferry to cross the English Channel to France and then continue the coach ride to Amsterdam. It only cost around 38 pound sterling for that ride.

If you value time over money, other options to travel there from England are:

- train by Eurostar; it travels through English channel via underwater tunnel at high speed and very cool! 

- Airplane, if you are claustrophobic.

mission imPOSSIBLE...

assalamualaikum...

we decided to be bold and get ourselves to Amsterdam and Paris, without knowing any of their language. we did walking tour with heavy luggage on our back. walk around amsterdam. Today we reached paris.


Amsterdam was quite ok, most of them can response in english, but paris..phew...better get a dictionary or learn the language if you ever want to come here..headache!


haven´t slept in bed for 2 days and my leg can barely take a step. oh ya, kasut koyak. what are the odds. dah la barang mahal kat Paris ni. kalau la boleh jalan pakai selipar jepun je. huh, just need to push myself to keep on walking, only 2 days left here...


will update on our activities later..

Makan @ Penang

::assalamualaikum::

(this update is rather late; i am now happily at home.. but oh well, who cares??)

Hari ni secara rasmi nya, aku dah tak tak ada duit!! ni semua gara2 berjalan sakan dekat Penang. walaupun kebanyakannnya kakak aku yang belanja (hehe thank you No!) tapi duit aku tetap habis. adui, cukup2 je bajet. haa...cerita pasal makanan, buat pertama kalinya aku pergi Penang tanpa makan kat restoran nasi kandar. saje ubah angin. sepanjang berada kat Penang, perut aku terisi dengan makanan2 yang sedap je. meh sini aku rekomen sikit kedai2 makan yang best.

1. Pak Hussin Tom Yam

masakan ala thai. macam2 pilihan ada. tapi menu pilihan hari tu tomyam ayam, siakap tiga rasa, nasi goreng ayam dan ayam manggo. servis not bad, kalau order air memang cepat sampai. waiter yang hantar makanan pun bergerak pantas, macam nak lari pecut seratus meter je. rasa???? yummy!!

menu pilihan..

siakap 3 rasa, before and after..

2. Bistro Route 69

chicken chop + iced mocha = kekenyangan

sajian makanan ala barat. selain tu ade jugak menu lain macam nasi goreng yang macam2 jenis. menu pilihan. Chicken Chop BBQ and Ice Mocha. menu lain yang berbaloi untuk cuba : Grilled Chicken Chop, Sweet n Sour Chicken Chop, Chocalate ice blended. Nasi goreng Ayam pun sedap jugak. lokasi, Bandar Perda, Seberang Prai. 

3. NASH Doughnat

cantik kan bangunan ni~~

untuk die hard fans donut berperisa macam Big apple, Dunkin' Donut, dan yang sewaktu dengannya, NASH Donut ni memang berbaloi untuk di cuba. rasa pun setanding dengan Big Apple. merupakan produk bumiputera. (sokonglah makanan tempatan!!) harga pulak sangat2 murah, RM1.60 je untuk sebijik donut. pilihan pulak tak payah cerita la, memang banyak. selain donut, makanan berat seperti mee bandung turut dijual.

  Ice blended pun ade, murah pulak tu, RM5.50 jer. kalau nak beli pastri dan kek pun ade. berbaloi-baloi untuk di cuba. lokasi : Bandar Perda, Bukit Mertajam belakang Jusco, seberang jalan dari outlet Bank Islam. cawangan lain ada sekitar utara je, dekat Taiping, Perak, Sg Petani dan Jitra,Kedah. kalau nak tahu lagi lanjut, boleh tengok website ni. (wah, macam promoter pulak!!)

HAH, nak yang mane, cepat pilih, pastu bayar sendiri~~

tak semestinya pergi Penang makan nasi kandar kan??! hehe, baru aku teringat, aku nak makan Char Kuey Tiow..cam mana boleh terlupa..ish x3~~

aku tak bodoh!!

assalamualaikum...

 Hari ni aku pergi tonton cerita 'Aku Tak Bodoh' kat TGV Seberang Prai. niat di hati nak tengok Rapunzel: Tangled Tale tapi dah terlepas waktu tayangan. tapi memang tak rugi. keseluruhan cerita menghiburkan dan menarik. kelakar jugak cerita tu, asyik tergelak je sepanjang menonton. ok, to cut thing short, ini adalah fakta menarik tentang filem Aku Tak Bodoh. nak tahu sinopsis boleh google atau search kat internet ye~~

1. dialog dalam ceita ni memang sempoi, tak berbunga2. short and hillarious.

Thumbs Up!!

2. kelakar sangat masa scene Jefri, budak umur 8 tahun, bawak kawan
    dia pergi klinik sebab ingat kawan dia tu mengandung. ni semua gara2
    pengaruh drama tv. ade ke menari pusing2 keliling pokok boleh buat
   org pregnant. haha, siap suruh makan nenas berplastik2 lagi. memang
   kelakar scene tu. pandai pulak pergi jumpa doktor.

3. lagi satu scene yang kelakar masa ayah si Sudin nak belikan beg
     baru untuk anak dia tu. beg kartun yang dibeli, macam beg sekolah
     rendah dulu padahal anak dia da 18 tahun!

4. aku rasa tema utama cerita ni ialah komunikasi. yep, antara ibubapa
    dengan anak2, guru dengan murid, ibubapa dengan guru...pendek
    kata kalau komunikasi berlaku sehala je, memang akan berlaku
    konflik.
    (ewah, buat hipotesis lak aku neyh..)

5.  aku suka tengok Sudin berlawan. waaaa....sugoi ne! smart hensem
     giler!!

6. mak cik yang kene ragut dengan Sudin dan Roy tu pun kelakar. keh2, boleh pulak dia cakap 'saje telefon  
    polis, nak tengok kecekapan polis Malaysia buat kerja'.

7. masa bapak sudin cakap i love you dekat dia..haha, sumpah kelakar. sampai terlepas periuk nasi. tapi
     bila dialog yang sama diulang masa ayah dia tenat, rasa sedih pulak.

8. ending dia tak boleh bla! boleh pulak Sudin tu menang pingat emas kat olimpik acara silat. kah2..macam
    tak logik pulak.

jadi memang tak rugi lah tengok cerita ni. walaupun diadaptasi daripada filem daripada singapore (I Not Stupid) tapi aku rasa cerita ni best. nak kasi 4 bintang la!!

penonton yang berpuas hati...
cerita ni memang sesuai untuk tontonan keluarga..

ps: sakit hati dengan perangai penonton yang tak tahu hormat penonton lain. dah la tak silent handphone, boleh kutuk2 pulak filem ni. kalau tak nak tengok keluar je la kan??!! buat bising jer..ish, ish, ish..terok x3!!

salam maal hijrah 1432

saya SUKA laut..

the view of Pantai Teluk Kemang, PD

slm..

hari ni pergi Port Dickson. waaa...dah lama mengidam nak duduk tepi laut, dengar bunyi ombak..akhirnya termakbul jugak doa. terima kasih daycare psikiatri yang menjadikan mimpiku kenyataan..hehe..yup. sebenarnya tujuan asal ke sana adalah untuk menjalankan aktiviti bersama pesakit luar.  memang seronok sangat...awal2 pagi lagi dah bangun. semangat membara!

sempat lagi buat origami sementara tunggu pesakit datang...

setelah 1 jam setengah perjalanan akhirnya sampai la ke PD. lagi tepat, pantai teluk kemang. well since it's already noon, we just played few games, and were having a lot of fun!! the patients was happy and engaged with the game well. we too, were satisfied because they really enjoyed the game! then, it's time for picture. as always i just can't stop taking pictures..so lets just cut off the word and let those pictures do the talking!

among games being played..

us....after the games...wanting so much to be near the ocean... 

oh no!.. i totally forgot to write my name on the sand~~
:(

last picture snapped. it's time to go~~

hmm, we were so mesmerized by the ocean view until we forgot to explore other places. huhu...suddenly i missed Sabah and Labuan. REALLY hope that our plan going there will succeed!

how i spent christmas holiday 2009.

salam. lama rasanya tak menulis kat blog ni. anyway it's not too late to wish happy new year to everyone! hmm, sblum buka cerita pasal new year, i would like to share my experience or should i say, my journey to johor on last christmas holiday with friends from ukm; Ira, Dilla and Ida. actually, we had planned this trip since october and alhamdulillah, we manage to make it happen!

hmm, our journey started on the 24th dec 09 where we boldly when to puduraya, hoping that tickets to muar is still available. luck was on our side and we've got the tickets to muar at 8.30 pm. after almost 3hours journey, we arrived at muar around 11 pm. there, ira's parents were waiting to fetch us. then, we went for supper and then to ira's house in kg serom 5, muar. since it was already dark and our eyes were eager too stay close, we went to bed.


the next day, we were greeted with complete cuisine for breakfast. we met ira's grandmom and chat with her. we also met ira's cousins,2 active boys whom i forgot their names and 2 shy girls; one named sofea, 4 years old and the other one is ain 2 years old. at first they were scared of us but after some time, they were eager to play with us. then, before we knew it, lunch was prepared. again, we were treated with finger licking dishes, asam pedas, my favourite.



After jumaat prayers, ira's brother drove us to Melaka. in melaka we went for
sightseeing around Bandaraya Melaka, we shop at mahkota parade and again went shopping in on of the craft market. Melaka was flooded with people, may be because of christmas holiday. sadly, we did not get the chance to ride eye on malaysia because it was already late




on our third day in muar, we went to ledang. this time, there's only four of us. as we reached ledang, we were greeted by a beautiful scenery and sound of waterfall. since we do not planned to bathe there, we just sat there, chats, admiring the beauty of nature, and eventually get wet! alhamdulillah, non of us fell into the water.

we also takes a lot of pictures there, credits to ida! after having a lot of fun there, we proceed to our next destination, tangkak. we had lunch at kfc and then do some shopping there. well, tangkak is famous for their wide range of textiles, where you can shop fabrics at bargainable prices. i spent hundred for 2 pairs of fabric to make baju kurung and 2 shawls.



after having so much fun, sightseeing, and get to know with ira's family, it is time for us to head back to kl. we were very thankful to ira and family for their hospitality, hmm johorian are really nice and friendly.
