It was a wonderful holiday... truly truly .. perhaps it's the best I ever had... Took three
days of leave, and drove up to a small town for a short vacation. Just some really close
friends and I.

Looking back at the pictures... and reminded of all the silly things we all did together ; it's priceless! Anyway here's a summary of the whole trip:

Day 1:

0615 hours:
Ukwan reaches my house to pick me up. Mum reminded not to drive fast. I had three bags with
me(including the sling bag m'kay?) and a radio.You know laarrr girls rite??? Hungry, no breakfast, so we went to Setapak to have porkie noodle.

"Not bad arr, so early also can eat!" - "Of course laa.. I'm trained! "

0715hrs:
Picked up YinLeng from her house. Got kinda lost there. Was stuck at Flood Road. When her
house is behind that!Now I really know how to get to her house! Met Jun, Carol and Malc at Karak toll station.They had eaten , so we just decided to drive up ahead. Supposed exit : Gambang. First junction after MEC Gambang, turn left to town.I had no idea how to get to the new highway, despite someone telling me that it is just 30 km away from Karak entry point! Just keep the faith and keep driving! Halfway to the town, I took over the car from Ukwan and drove in front of Jun. I was on 160kmph at top speed !!! OMG. Average speed :130kmph but somehow don't reallly feel scary cos the car seem to be very stable. Weight makes a difference. It's so different from driving my Mini.Jun was gracious enough not to let me eat his dust! Hahahhahaa.. :)

1030am:
Reached the town! Ok, it's nothing really to shout about. It's a small town , something like Ipoh. They have a Berjaya Megamall *civilization!!!*, and many shops around the town. They have a nice river flowing through the town, so it's really a pretty site. Also saw big "Celcom Territory" billboard, just like KL. Drive straight to Chempedak Lagoon to look for our little abode.Passed by some VIPs' houses, the Golf course and also the Hyatt hotel.They have a cool hangout place with sidewall cafes and McDs - bet this place is HOT at night!

Unknown:
Found the abode --- man!!! It's located soooo secludedly, I won't dare to venture into it my own!!!!! Scareyyyyyyy~~~ Beautiful beautiful abode - facing a private beach, just us and the nature... perfect holiday. When we reached there , the wind was blowing like I never felt before ; it was.... just, perfect! We got three Queensized bed rooms. Since we had three girls and three guys, it was difficult to share ; the girls ended up in the biggest room while the boys shared the two other rooms. The view from the first floor of the bungalow was fantastic! There's a bench which is my all-time fav in the abode ... You can sit here enjoying the wind while overlooking the sea which looks rough at this time.Got two birthday gifts - a MINI model car as well as the necklace.:)

Lunch time:
Went for KAI fan, upon request by MC. Not that great *and quite pricey* really for some kampung chicken , pork and vege.Hung out at Berjaya Megamall after that - just to shop for
groceries, which we later found out does NOT have a supermart. Paid RM1 for the aircond
hehe.. Went to Tunas Manja along the way back to the abode.I found out that the other way
to get my MINI is by drinking Coke, which made me to start ticking each can reachable to see if any of them actually is empty!

Evening time:
Bathed, walk to the private beach!My gosh,it's beautiful..... The sea is very rough, not possible to swim there , really. Jun, Ukwan and I hung out at the big boulders while I was clicking pictures all the way.Ukwan looked like a nomad looking for treasure around the beach, hehe..Games later at the table tennis room. If there's one thing that I learned in this trip , it's HUMILITY!JH and MC gave CT and I a 10-0 lead for the table tennis game , which we won ... ahahhaha.. the punishment for the losing side:Pumping 30 times (Boys) and ketuk-ketampi(Girls).Result : JH and MC had to do pumping!Smart JH didn't do warm up, ended up having hand joints pain.Hehe.. MC is smarter laa..:P We also had a 6-person table tennis game , where each play a round-robbin table tennis. QUite fun! One more game which we played was a guy vs girl team. If you had watched Super Trio , you would know how it worked. Result : girls lost the game. We had to do the YMCA song with actions* we only knew the chorus!*.

Night :
Dinner at Pak Su Seafood Restaurant a few km from where we stayed. Had steamed fish, stuffed crabs, bege, taufu and onion chicken.Price was great! Later we went cruising at the Hyatt walkway area where many people hang out. Lots of food stalls , sketch artists and dating couples as well as families and holiday makers around here. McD seem to be doing extremely well. Retired early that night.
