Percutian Langkawi Bahagian 2

13 - 14 March 2008



Langkawi Cable Car here we come… Mak oi!!!! Tingginya cable car nih…

but the views are breathtaking...

Gayat tok sah cakap la… tapi macam Fear Factor, ku tempuh jua jambatan kabel tu….

Tengok la curam dia… ngerikan? Yup, you are thinking like I am thinking toooooooo…

Tapi anak2 suka sungguh naik cable car tu. Tak gayat pulak, orang dewasa ajer yang gayat hehehee

















Then off to Telaga Tujuh but… kaki dah lenguh panjat jambatan kabel tu menyebabkan adventur kami hanya di kaki air terjun saja.



















Nasib baik Langkawi Falls tak perlu panjat tinggi-tinggi. Percaya tak Langkawi Falls ni buatan manusia? Man made falls… cantek kan?




















Malam kami meronda Dataran Lang dan helang tu masih utuh di situ walaupun 10 tahun telah berlalu. Magnificant!




















Chocolate shopping was marvellous. I was busy shopping until forget to snap a few photos hehehe Besides, the shop are closing in 5 minutes time so it was a marathon. Nevertheless, I spent RM154 during the short period. Macam mana tu? Azim kata sampai tak nampak lampu fridge tu sebab penuh dengan chocolates hehehe Sampai hari nih, ada lagi berlambak chocolate dalam frigde tu. Oh ya! Beli lagi tshirt Langkawi untuk kelurga di KL pulak tambah dengan kain batik Indon, murahnya, dan identity Langkawi, minyak gamat.











Semasa balik, kami bernasib baik dilepaskan oleh pihak Imigresen. Lagipun apa sangat la yang kami beli cuma tshirt, kain batik, minyak gamat, coklat ops… banyak juga ya…



Sedih meninggalkan Langkawi. Sedih cuti sudah berakhir sebenarnya. Langkawi tempat yang bagus untuk percutian keluarga. Anak2 sampai ke hari ini masih ajak ke Langkawi lagi, nak naik cable car, alahai… Semoga ada rezeki untuk kami kembali…

Percutian Langkawi Bahagian 1

11 – 12 March 2008

Aaaaaahhhhhhhh I took 2 years to plan this trip. Dari anak 3 masuk 4 hehehe We have to postpone the trip due to unable to go on sabbatical leave, completing my studies, family matters and financial constraint, I have to admit the last reason. Welcoming a new member in a family bring about us to re-structure our financial management. Finally… we managed to pull through. Alhamdulillah… the trip was well planned and carry out smoothly.

Tolerate with me, the last time we went to Langkawi was 10 years ago in December 1997. Azim was just 3 years young then.

The day we supposed to fly, Azhad had skin allergy. Rush to the clinic, gave him medication and a long list of medicine to take along. Our flight schedule at 1155am. Since it was the school holidays, the LCCT has changed into a bus station! Really!!! Plus, the Indons. OMG! I do not wish to elaborate any further.



The kids were excited about the aeroplane that they could hardly sit down. I was anxious especially during take off and landing. Kang tercampak anak2 aku, naya… This is Athirah, Azhad and Aliyah first time. Actually I have packed some titbits and drinks for the kids on flight but I guess the stewardess food cart was more mouth-watering to them. Including Abang Nawar too… he even had RM8 nasi lemak on board. Typical! I don’t have to share how Air Asia stewardesses look like, do I? Short skirt and mat salleh wanna-be hair style. Hhhmmmmm… faham kan? But I am ok with it…



We landed on the island quarter past one. Abang Nawar was snapping pictures like a foreign tourist. Kita kan pelancong, kata dia… :)


We stayed at Langkasuka Resort, 5 min drive from airport but it took us 20 mins to reach there hehehehe and rented a Toyota Innova. Check in hotel, had lunch, pusing2 Pantai Cenang dan terjun laut laaa…


We were trying to get the taste of local food. Every food place was jam packed with people and we have to settle at a place called Lubuk Buaya. Only one of its kind nama kedai tu kan? Luckily the food was good and tasty. Ke sebab lapar??????




Next day we went to Laman Padi, Underwater World, Taman Buaya and one round of the island. Laman Padi was very informational, UW was expensive compared to the aquatics inside, Taman Buaya was the same as ten years ago and the island has change in transportation and scene.


Besarnya ikan tu!!!!!

Unbelievably, I met my close but lost contact classmate while explaining to the kids why the starfish has no eyes. Surie Arini… yang menakjubkan ialah saya memang teringatkan kawan saya yang seorang ini, lebih kurang 2 minggu sebelum kami berjumpa.. Besar sungguh kuasa Allah menemukan kami, yang masing tinggal di Selangor, berjumpa sekeluarga di Langkawi. Syukur alhamdulillah . Bila tengok anak2nya membuatkan saya tersenyum mengenang masa lalu kami di sekolah dulu. Tiba2 teringat apa Aida Mastura kata kepada anak2ku masa kenduri bulan lepas… “Auntie, dulu sama2 dengan Mama buat….. bla bla bla... kalau nak tau apa2 tanya Auntie” hhhhmmmmmmmm Surie bukan kawan biasa bagiku, kawan luar biasa tau... teman berkongsi susah dan senang masa tu...Syukur, Allah menemukan aku kembali dengannnya.

On the way to Crocodile Farm, we encounter a district called Ewa. Funny but unique nama huh?

While pumping petrol, I noticed that the petrol station is still using the old model pump. Apa lagi ambil gambar and tunjuk kat anak2. Kat KL mana ada lagi petrol pump macam ini.




Luckily we arrived at the Crocodile Farm exactly at feeding time.

The kids enjoyed watching the crocs having snack but I was just wondering since the crocs are in captivity, does the killer instinct still there? Some of the crocs were badly hurt with open wounds and scars. Kesian…

We drove further and reached at a new town area called Telaga Harbour. Colonial design building with boat parking bays. Siap ada rumah api lagi… Pantainya cantik boleh mandi manda.



On the way back to the resort, we noticed a unique building, the 7 Roof Restaurant.

That nite we had dinner at Hj Ramli Restaurant. Superb seafood delicacies and ample space. Hari pertama dan kami telah memborong sedozen tshirt Langkawi.

g. Post General Election comments

Terima kasih kepada Minaq Jinggo atas gambar di atas.

Disebabkan tsunami politik semasa PRU12, macam2 berlaku. Ada saudara mara menyindir saya kerana berlainan pendapat, kawan2 tidak bertegur sapa dan email saya bertubi2 menerima surat2 tanpa setem. Semua orang bercerita tentang politik hinggakan blog hiburan turut cerita politik. Ini ombak tsunami lebih 15 kaki di Acheh dulu. Namun, masih ada yang mahu berkata2 dengan pandangan yang berbeza tetapi dengan mesra. Ingin saya ulang sekali lagi... 'Difference in comments and opinions should enrich our minds and not restrict them...' Thanks Our for that!

Selepas mengundi di Sekolah Lai Meng, Jalan Ampang bagi P119 Titiwangsa pada pagi 8 Mac 2008, kami sekeluarga balik ke JB memenuhi jemputan kenduri Kak Long suami saya. Tidaklah saya ketahui X saya itu menyumbang kepada tsunami politik sehingga BN hanya mendapat majoriti mudah berbanding PRU11. Rata2 semua terkejut semasa keputusan PRU12 dipapar di kaca TV malam itu. Kami turut berjaga hingga 3 pagi namum agak kecewa sebab banyak keputusan masih belum diumumkan.

Saya simpati BN kerana kehilangan kepercayaan majoriti rakyat Malaysia. Rakyat mahukan PERUBAHAN. PEOPLE WANT CHANGE! People vote other than BN due to dissatisfaction in crime rates, consumer goods and corruption. People want something to be done. This is modern politics unlike our grandparents. So if your are elected, this is the time to show your commitment and sincerity in doing your duty, or else we see you no more… BN leaders on the other hand, this is the time to redress. Pemimpin kena jaga rakyat dan bukannya rakyat jaga pemimpin, kata pemandu teksi yang membawa kami sekeluarga ke LCCT tempohari. Kalau BN masih jumud dan asyik mengharap rakyat jaga BN, alamat laaaaa… Its time for BN to be transparent, honour the freedom of speech and stop bullshitting the people. Aku sudah muak denagn bobrokkan media perdana yang berfikiran rendah dari anak aku yang sekolah tadika! People are more intelligent and as fast as a speeding bullet will rectify any statement made by you. The people will be watching…

Dalam tempoh 4 atau 5 tahun ini, BA dan BN perlu bekerja keras. BA perlu tunjukkan yang mereka mampu memimpin dan menguruskan Malaysia Inc. dan BN pula perlu memenangi hati rakyat semua… kita tunggu dan lihat… this is what I call the real check and balance in democracy. Stop pointing fingers and start working!

If my Srikandi friends just read and understand my short comments, I am surely they will not done what they have done last Thursday. Gals, I hope the light to revivify our friendship doesn’t have to be like the PRU12 results.

Apa yang telah berlaku? – Bahagian II

Masa menulis bahagian ini, pilihanraya sudah berlangsung dan saya baru balik dari cuti di Langkawi. I shall write that on Part 3. Aduhai... masa berlalu begitu pantas ek?

d. My Latest Collections

Gifts from my hubby… Though I usually reward myself, but… orang nak bagi kita terima ajer la hehehehehe Do ignore the background hehehe

e. General Elections 2008

‘They’ say blogger can’t be trusted? Hey! Semak dulu fakta sebelum bagi komen. Do your homework, please!

This will be my 4th time to cast vote. Kenapa? Tak percaya ka? I am a very RESPONSIBLE CITIZEN. Register with SPR upon turning 21 and started voting in 1995 – Azim was born 2 months before, 1999 – a memorable experience, 2004 – Melayu mudah lupa, now 2008 – the wind of change.

C’mon friends, choose your stand now! Saya memilih mereka yang menegakkan Islam! Ambil perhatian pendapat peribadi sebegini…

1. Weellllllll. .. my take on Malaysians politics nowadays.. I am voting for the lesser devil... wakakaka...

2. sekiranya tak ada satu parti pun yg kita rasa layak memimpin negara terchennnta - -pilih yg paling kurang membawa kerosakan.. sebab mana ada yg perfect pung!

3. we need all parties, I don't wanna say 'Oppositions' parties.. siapa yg melabelkan siapa.. (in the case of K'tan, whose the opposition here???) We need differents parties, to keep in check the ruling party.. kalu dak, makin naik tanduk lah the ruling party....

4. my vote is to reduce majority on the winning parties hahaha...so that they'll know that their popularity is going down and will work hard in order to gain back the people trust and confidence.. for next election..2012 also to check and balance the governing party..

5. Aku orang gomen (tetiba muncul dari mimpi yang panjang..... ) tak boleh komen -ve pasal gomen tapi boleh angguk2 dan geleng2.....

6. governmen t is a body governing the states, not a party......governme nt is us...... all payment and expenses of the country is borned by us, the tax payers!!!! therefore, must make sure that our money is used prudently, efficiently and accordingly. ..and it is handled by trustworthy leaders...

I shall comments no further. Kang tak pasal2 aku kena ISA and laki aku ada orang lain kebas pulak, lllllllaaaaaaaarrrrrikkkkkkkkk…

f. Gambar dengan Khaty Ibrahim

Setelah puas aku menghantar email kepada Pengurus Khaty Ibrahim, akhirnya dia email juga gambar we all dengan Kathy masa majlis makan malam Disember lepas. Tak sangka cun jugak aku nih yea... hehehe but please... again ignore the background (oh no! the the hotel's kitchen!)

Apa yang telah berlaku? – Bahagian I

My Dear Friends,

Sorry for not updating the blog for awhile. Been busy lately with duties at work, attending conferences, organizing my family trip to Langkawi and scrapping my hubby’s RM from his wallet aka shopping la tu… hehehe

a. Kenduri Kesyukuran – 8/2/2008

Syukur ke hadrat Illahi, aku berjaya juga mengadakan satu majlis kenduri kesyukuran yang sebelum ini asyik bertangguh sahaja atas pelbagai sebab. Kad jemputan dikeluarkan seminggu lebih awal. Rombongan JB sampai sehari lebih awal. HAVOC! Bayangkan ada anak remaja dan kecil2 seramai 15 orang dan 9 dewasa dalam satu rumah! Alhamdulillah, majlis yang bermula dengan doa selamat yang berakhir dengan khatam Al-Quran berjalan dengan baik sekali.

Despite the long holidays, friends and neighbours arrived in the afternoon and family members came at dinner. Walaupun, dalam kesibukan cuti panjang cuti Tahun Baru Cina, you all datang jua…I am touched deeply indeed. Friends who are unable to attend, Insyallah, we meet during the next gathering. Aida Mas, so good to see you dear. You looked graceful hehehe

Niderq, hang memang maintain tho anak nak masuk 5, super mom!

Onan, semoga Ayang selamat bersalin. Girl pun tak per la… Girl Power tau!

Geng Makan Office, lain kali mai lagi tau tapi lepas nih kita serbu rumah Puan Marina pulak yea...

Eda and Bad, semoga Allah murahkan rezeki you all berdua. Aku ‘hutang’ hang pa 2x hehe

Lepas kenduri nak mengemas pulak… Nasib baik guna khidmat caterer. The caterer is my classmate masa DPA dulu. Kalau masak sendiri, mau sebulan tak habis mengemas lagik! hehehe

Rombongan JB balik keesokkan hari. Tak sempat nak jalan2 EOM or KLCC sebab nak singgah BP dulu masa dalam perjalanan. Semoga kita berjumpa lagi.

Gambar kenduri kat sini tau!


b. Politik sat… 13/2/2008

Opsssss…. PM baru umum pembubaran Parlimen? Ya ka ? Bermakna... Mari lah mari pergi mengundi. Jangan lupa kewajipan pada Negara…


c. Birthday Athirah – 20/2/2008

Athirah turned 6 today. She is a beautiful princess indeed. Me and hubby decided to distribute a big fat goody bag to her friends at the nursery but she insisted a chocolate cake and a party as well. Budak2 zaman sekarang nih memang demand kan? I ordered the cake from Lynn Hassan and she delivered a beautiful Barbie choc cake. Thanks Lynn, my kids really love it! So the celebration with Athirah’s little friends took place and everybody were happy including the 1 month ago birthday boy, Azhad. Dia pun sibuk nak potong kek dan agih2kan goody bag.

Rambut Azhad dah macam Shaolin kan? Masa nak potong rambut tu, Abah perlu ada kesabaran yang tinggi, macam2 alasan Azhad bagi termasuk sakit perut dan anak jatuh. Menangis tak usah cakap tapi bila rambut dah pendek, dia bukan main suka lagi. Sejuk dan selesa agaknya. Bulan depan birthday Abang Long pula… hhhhmmmm nak bagi hadiah apa kat dia?

Gambar birthday kat sini pulak!
