April

So, my break is coming to an end. I am not happy bout it but there's nothing I can do.

I went to Damai Laut. Fantastic place, full of seafood, bit old school, very kampung-like, worth going to, for the beach is awesome. :D

Here are some pics to show you what you're missing. :D So we arrived at about 4 or 5. We later went to the lobby area for our welcome drinks. Took this pic at that time.

By the pool. :D, lazing around.


While I was lazing around, my mother spotted a raptor. It's a bird, just in cases. :D Very grand creature, circling above us. Later another one appeared. They just soar, like riding on the wind, and have no need to flap their wings. Very smooth. :D
For breakfast, there's of course your nasi lemak, porridge, but none of those can compare to this baby. :D This is known to me as pain au chocolat. Say it like phan o schocola. :D Chocolate bread. Delicious, sweet, chocolatey, soft. Good. :DDDD

Here's another pic of what is across the sea from us. Pangkor Island. :D You can take a boat across for the day if I'm correct. :D

On the second day, sat under one of these wooden big umbrellas and enjoyed the sea breeze as well as the waves.


Here's what one of those things look like. Sat there waiting for the sun to set.


Almost there.

Clouds came and blocked the sun. :(, but the breeze was so good, we didn't want to move.
hahahha, we left eventually.
Anyways, I had fun. Soon, it'll be time to go back to school and it all starts all over again.
Until my next break, I prob won't update. When my next break comes, I might want to get a part time job or laze full time. Depends. :D

Cameron Highlands

It's been a long time since I last updated. Been really busy with my 2nd sem. Anyways, I'm on break. :DDDD If you're still reading, read this. :D

I finished my finals on Friday. So we (Me, Yen Yin and Letitia) went up to Cameron Highlands on Saturday morning. :D
Letitia's awesome pic of me. :D


Opportunity to take pics on the bus. :D, we took lots. The two in front of me camwhored lots. I sat at the back and by myself so that I wouldn't be disturbed by the next fella. (Or get sick.)
Going up was smoother than going down. They didn't have motion sickness issues, so they were okay. I took the motion sickness pill and was alright.
We got down at Tanah Rata. Hungry, we went to Yong Teng Cafe, where there are delicious pancakes. Letitia LOVED it. We went there once every day. We were there for three days. I am sick of pancakes now. Letitia loved it so much that she actually said that she wants to bring the Uncle home. :D After Lunch/Tea, we went up to HCC. The walk up was enough to burn off pancake and ice-cream. :D
We had time before the night market at Brinchang, so we did our nails. Nice, but they kept getting ruined. Yen Yin and mine especially. But it was fun. :D

At the night market, it was full of people, strawberries, corn and food and stuff.



They were selling this honeycomb stuff. As delicious as it is, apparently you can't eat it. I already ate some by the time some lady told me. I have yet to research it. Very sweet and made Yen Yin HAPPY. :D

I also found some very cute, we-see-in-cartoons-only carrots. :D, I HAD to take a picture with it. :DD

These things are interesting. You pull them down and they bounce up and down. :D

Later, after eating lotsa food at the market, we stopped for a break. We wanted some strawberry ice-cream and all. This was Vanilla, Strawbery ice-cream with cream and strawberries to top. :DDD Fantastic. Unfortunately, they were toooo full to enjoy it. Very sweet, and nice. :D

The next day, after church and lunch at the pancake place, we went back to the room and waited for our tour. While waiting, to occupy time, we took pictures. :D


Covering Letitia.

She was pretty quick herself.





Sandwiching me.
Finally, tour starts. Very jerky driving, nvm, view and pill works well to relief motion sickness. This was the Sungei Palas BOH tea plantation.

The famous area at the top. :D, must take picture!!

After visiting the tea plantation, we went to the BEE farm.



We played the bee hive maze. They stuck with each other and managed to get out first. :D, Anyway, the souvenir we got was some "money" keychains. They were a bit slow. I got RM10. :D

Then we visited the Butterfly park. This hibiscus is huge. As compared to my hands, you can see that it's big in size.




This butterfly had a broken wing and I managed to get it off the leaf and onto my hand. Sad for its' wing but happy that I got to take a pic of it in my hand!! :D




The last stop for us was the Strawberry farm. Which we visited the next day as well to buy our strawberries and all that. :D We were kinda lazy to go to the Buddhist temple, so we stopped our tour here.

Look at all the greens.
Nice picture taken by Kung Yen Yin. Me eating me icicle below.



The next day, when we visited the same farm, we had some strawberry and cream. Letitia had her strawberry cheese cake. Oh, my old sunnies broke, I bought two new ones for about RM25. :DD, they liked this one more.



We rushed back to HCC, and then had lunch once more for LETITIA at the pancake place.

On the bus, bored yet couldn't sleep anymore. hahahha. Took a pic of my nails before all the colour goes ugly.

The three of us fit into two seats.
Just :D. hahhaha. Was a fun holiday while it lasted. Will have more in the future. :DDDDD
Happy.
