Halfway Through NS and I'm Lovin' It~!

National Service is MUCHO FUN!!

It truly is!
When I first got to know it, obviously I was shocked and in daze.
But when the day finally came for me to report to NS, I was pretty hyped up.
And now I can honestly say I never regretted entering NS!

There are so many nice, friendly people there!
It is truly a whole new different experience.
Washing my own clothes (fook hoy said he wants to blog bout it),
meeting new friends, close encounters with MONKEYS!, waking up at 5am to jog at 6.30am.
Every weekends, it's cleaning the dorm and washing toilets *pukes*
In our camp, girls are addressed as "Wirawati" and boys are called "Wira"
We have for main companies (groups) :
- Alpha
- Bravo
- Charlie
- Delta

And I'm a proud Delta-ian! Each company has 2 dorms which has 30 inmates as we're called.
Every night without fail, our beds will be covered with bugs and god knows wat!
But I made alot alot of new friends there and I'm having a GREAT TIME!!

I feel like I'm turning into a housewife because when it rains, the only thing I care about are my clothes hanging outside!
And when I have free time, it's not playing computer or watching Grey's Anatomy or reading comics but it's more like polishing my shoes, cleaning my locker, sweeping the floor, washing clothes and ironing my clothes!

Our day starts at 6.30am everyday and ends at 11pm every night.
But since I attended NS, my sleeping hours has been cut into 1/4! sobs, no more naps for me!
I really miss PJ and all my kith and kins hereeee!! (yea especially u, YFH) haha
Will be reporting back to the camp on Sunday.
And the next week, we will start our M16 training! (yea baby!!)
And we'll be sent into the jungles for Navigasi training!

Just wanna shout out to everyone: take care and please make available a date to yam cha with me after March 11th!

Will miss all of u! miergal!!

Langkawi Escapade 3

We also visited the cable car park.
Our Langkawi tourguide mentioned to us that he was pretty afraid at first to board the cable car as it was very high up and very steep. Furthermore it is bounded by only a thick metal thing.
So it kind of stirred up anxiety in most of us.
We had to walk quite a distance around the park to get to the cable car station.
Rest assure Aileen, Amanda and my mom were chickening out while boarding the cable car.
When we finally boarded the cable car, Amanda and Aileen were screaming and holding on to the whatever grips they can find!
whew, it was steep alright but the view was beautiful.

There were 2 stations, but we stopped at the last station which was the highest up(710meters above sea level)
When we reunited with the whole tour, the gang told us that they could hear us screaming our heads of in the cable car.
We climbed up to the highest podium and the view is simply amazing!
very windy though!
there was this stairs leading to the highest podium and I saw many males crowding around the stairs looking downwards.
So curiously went there to check out what were they looking at.

A prove that all males are hot-blooded, they were staring at this European tourist who was wearing the most low-cut blouse and had a Pamela Anderson sized boobs.
She was sitting there having her potrait drawn and the males were staring from upwards at her, yea, u guessed it, her boobs.


After enjoying the view, we headed back and boy, the return trip was even steeper!
We headed back to the Langkasuka hotel which had this cooling and beautiful ambience.
Shared a room with my aunt and Aileen. The room was nice and big.
So while the night was still young, Aileen and I ran back and forth to my parent's room and then to my cousins' and grandpa's room.
After a game of Monopoly with Amanda and Aileen, we hit the sack.
Woke up 6am in the morning, eyes still half asleep, brushed and washed up then we went for breakfast at the Sunset Restaurant.
After breakfast, we headed to the beautiful, clean beach and collected lots of sea shells!
Hit the swimming pool after beach for a dip.

Checked out(rather reluctantly) and then we went to duty-free shops to buy chocolates and liquors.
Boy, we bought so much chocolates that the tour guide joked that half of Langkawi's chocolate stock has been wiped out by us.
I love Cadbury's Caramello!
Had lunch and it was back to the jetty point.
And it's bye bye Langkawi.
Absolutely love Langkawi!

In the bus, the tourguide started telling Chinese riddles and hamsup jokes!
freakin funny!
Am really going to miss Langkawi!

Langkawi Escapade 2

Went to Galeria Perdana which houses state-of-the-art paintings, structures and artsy stuff.
Had to pay an extra RM3.00 just because I wanted to take my camera in with me.
The place was big, beautiful and the monuments were so pretty!

After Galeria Perdana, went to Underwater World.
The aquatic lives were so cute! well, some of them.
It was a nice place and after Underwater World, we boarded the bus and headed to Dataran Helang.
We were all pretty bushed out by then but stuck it up and put on a smile for pictures anyway

From Langkawi, With Love

Langkawi was awesomely FUN~!

My whole family, 2 cousins, aunt and grandpa joined a tour to Langkawi which included one full day of sightseeing, a plethora of hotties, picturesque sceneries and tons of fun!


My family, cousins and I drove down to Perak to unite with the tour. After we boarded the coach, the tour guide, Mr.Soo explained what to expect.


Sat with Aileen and both of us played with the seats which were so cute~ The journey started at 12am and we slept in the vip coach. Could hardly sleep as I was pretty excited and we reached at about 6am, just when I was about to sleep, we reached. I'm like hey!


After freshening up, we had breakfast and then it was off to the jetty!







We waited for our 8am ferry and the toilets *pukes* we P.U. gross!
When the ferry finally arrived, we stepped out to the deck and what a beautiful scenery we witnessed.



The ocean was calm and serene.





Had to wait for the others to board the ferry.



Julius was on the tour too!
The tour guide wanted to know how long he takes to style his hair every morning.

We finally arrived at Langkawi Island and were all pumped up!




Aileen and I got the front row seats again











Fooled around in the jetty for awhile









It was a long ferry journey, so everyone took a nap





Asked aileen to pose and this is what she gave. geez brinjal!








Amanda and Ashley









After reaching Langkawi, we went to the Yatch area where it was in front of Dr.M's bread bakery. The cheese mousse was yummys! and so were the other bakeries too. The yatches were nice but the the sun was pretty sunny which resulted in mata sepets.

The LangKaWi Escapade 1

Our Langkawi tour guide, Mr.Michael is one efficient and talkative guy.
I really mean it when I say talkative.
Even Natasha and Dhinisya rolled into one can't beat him!

He gave us this code so that we won't get lost.
When we ask, "How is Langkawi?" We have to answer in mandarin "Fei Shiang Hao!"

We headed to Langkawi Geoforest Park and took the speed boats to explore the mangrove swamps,bat caves and the fish farm.
The whole tour of about 28 people spilt into 3 speed boats and my speed boat driver was the experienced one. While the other driver was the middle one and the other speed boat driver was the young and handsome one. haha darn
We strapped on our life jackets and headed to the Bat Caves and Mangrove Swamp area.


When we reached the Bat Cave, boy, the stairs leading to the checkpoint was so steep!
Mr.Michael said do not say anything about the cave being smelly as its a myth that it will 'disturb' the spirits in there.
The cave had lots of stalamites and stalatites and it was really dark and slippery.
Amanda held on to the railings for support and the tour guide suddenly said "Don't touch the railings, they are covered with BAT POOP~ "
After touring the bat caves, Mr.Michael brought us around the mangrove swamps and asked who can name the roots.
smiled in my heart thinking "hey it's in my Biology book"

Later we alighted the speed boat and watched eagle feeding and fed monkeys too.
Monkeys are good swimmers~ The more we fed them, the closer they were getting to us and they even attempted to jump into our boats!


The fish farm was really nice! The fish farmers bred a variety of aquatic lifes.
They let us touch sting rays and demonstrated how to feed them.
And at one point, a few weird and unique aquatic creatures were passed around to let us touch and see.
All of a sudden this boy turned and passed me a wacky looking shell fish and I got a shock and almost fell to the back(we were standing on planks) and behind me was baracuda fishes.
Luckily mum caught me. whew!

The speed boat driver drove us to the Kilim Geoforest Park area to take pictures.
We headed back with a fast speed ride~ weeee

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDYKINS~

2nd December 2008
Today is the of my dearest daddy's birthday!
Yesterday my sisters and I were brainstorming with poems for daddy and I came up with some humourous poems about Aileen which I think she'll strangle me if I post any of em here~

Here's one for dad:
In terms of fighting spirit we know u're the toughest,
Deep down in our hearts we feel u're the nicest,
Mum,Aileen, Ash and I just can't seem to find your vices,
And whenever we want to buy something you never ask for their prices!

When we were young you always gave us piggyback rides,
You also always find creative ways to solve our fights,
You always love and protect us with all your might,
Being the caring dad you are, you never let us out of your sight.

Whenever we are as scared as a cat,
You always make us laugh by putting on your hat,
We know sometimes we might make you mad,
But all we want to say is WE LOVE YOU DAD!!


My dearest daddy, David Teh Hong Keong



Dad's pretty good at swimming






We all love him~ with cousins, Bergmen and Carmen



Dearest Mummykins and daddy!
