Yes me is super duper bored. LOL. Wat the heck am I doing blogging while me spose to do my thesis??? Here me is blank staring at the screen. I hate exchange rates. Still could not believe me such a fool for choosing that thesis instead of practical. OMG...speaking like a cartoon that I just watch forgotten the name of it. Using me instead of I. Got it through flipping through the tv in Terengganu. Home line total horrid.
K...since me blogging...i have to just write down a few somethings through Terengganu experience. LOL.
1st day:
Arrive 9 something in Terengganu. Got on the bus and run through my GPS. Since is like so dark, (sarcastic) we used the GPS to see where we are and what are those places we saw and etc. 1st search was our hotel. Supposed to be something called MingStar Hotel. It was like not on the screen then rupa-rupanya its a mini hotel. Not bad actually. The lobby guy could speak fluent English. Yes i know me being sarcastic again but hey, you should at least know how to converse in English if ypou are working in a service sector. Got our room and checked-in. Next, looking for food. On our way to the hotel, we spotted Secret Recipe on the screen. So we search out looking for it. We used GPS again and hey we are near the red spot on the screen. That means that Secret Recipe is nearby. Then we go searching for bright red kedai with clear glass. Then Deenah spotted it first and like, "alamak, sebelah sahaja la". So we walk out stood in the middle of the road and stare. It is just right next door of our hotel and hell it does not look like secret recipe. Open in the frong looks like a kopitiam more. Since dad's friends took him out for dinner, me and my team search for food. A seafood restaurant called Tian Kee Seafood Restaurant. The workers there all wear yellow as their uniform. A bit different their mandarin. They d not know what is chinese tea but they know it as China tea. Ahahaha...K then after dinner drop by 7-11. bought mineral water and milo then bath then watch tv while sleeping. Ahahaha...
2nd day:
Got up, waited at the lobby have breakfast in the hotel's dining room since our stay includes breakfast. Ate some colourful rice, spicy but super sweet kueh teow, orange juices, and hangus scramble eggs. Not a recommended breakfast. Bus came then we weight-in. Just right, 67kgs. However, unfortunately, malangnya, i'm the only one in middle weight! All my effort of gaining weight is grrrrr.....then k la, i say me turun to welter, then also no one. Light also. Akhirnya, the heavy turun to middle. Accepted that. Bought some souvenirs then return to hotel. Look places for lunch then found out that Terengganu's weekends are Friday and Saturday. They really meant holidays. No shop buka la. Then we ask the hotel guy and he pointed a malay kopitiam. When there and they have like chicken rice and economic rice only which is not convincing.
waiter: "nak makan ape?"
me: "sini ada apa?"
waiter: "yang nila yang you nampak"
deenah: "bagi saya nasi ayam"
nara: "saya pun"
josephinna:"e, saya pun mau la"
(waiter looks amused with our slang)
Josephinna: "tapi saya mau paha ayam"
(waiter totally blank)
waiter: "ape itu"
deenah and me: "paha ayam"
(waiter still blur but then he realise)
waiter: "o peha ayam"
4 of us repeat: " oooo, pehe ayam"
deenah: "peha ayam ba"
waiter amused: "minum?"
deenah: "avacado juice ada ka?"
(waiter damn blur) deenah repeats. Then i told her avocado not easy to find here.
deenah: "bagi say milo suam la"
josephinna: "saya pun"
nara: "jus oren"
(waiter blur again)
deenah and me: "orange juice"
me: "milo kosong ais"
nara: "tidak mau oren la...milo air ping"
(me, deenah, josephinna blur)
(nara repeats)
3 of us: "ooo, milo ais"
(waiter totally amused)
then we heard othe waiter speaking: "orang Sabo le"
Ahahahaha....they amused, we amused everybody amused.
I drank up my drink and me and dad ate at the hotel since the food that does not attract him. Not that tasty. Food very sweet. And then sleep our afternoon off. Dad went to meeting me jaga his bilik then i did not follow them to Giant so me and dad have dinner at the seafood restaurant that day.
3rd day:
Competition day. me jadi penjaga beg. Hahahha...weird le. only the juniors competing. The announcer has this very thick semenanjung accent. LOL. Bought more stuff, i got more souvenirs, bought t-shirt, key chains, a new belt, mouth guard, sara's shoes, etc. After finishing, we when back to the hotel, rest awhile then go for dinner. Ate at that amusing shop again while dad goes off to dinner with his friends. Ahahahha...however the waiter cheated me. There was actually chopped pieces of green cili padi in my rice, and it turns out that nasi dagang is not tat tasty. Did not finish my food end up eating maggi in the room. Deenah joked with the waiter again by using these terengganu slang we learnt and asking for avocado juice again. It rained that night...for awhile. Just enough to get me and Deenah wet.
4th day:
Our turn to compete. I fought we this really heavy weight girl. 20kgs heavier then me. Scary la. Backache, assache and so on. Not her fault though. She is shorter the me a lot and heavier. So her weight on me is like a lorry. Ahahaha...funny match. She is like so heavy that when i kick her me terpantul balik and fell. LOL. However that day we managed 5 gold medals making a total of 6 gold medals out of seven participants. we bought keropoks on our way back to the hotel. Also we visited the crystal mosque with the Sarawak team. Its really pretty though. We missed the miniature world mosques since we were running out of time. We had this megah seafood dinner and it is actually cheap the food there. That day finish early so we like packed our bags b4 dinner.
5th day:
Got up at 5.30am. Reached LCCT 9 something. KFC again for lunch and breakfast. Reach kk almost 6. Damn flight delayed. So annoyed. we sort of like 12 hours in airport. Inside too cold, and outside like smoking zone. All of us slept in the airplane. But the row behind us is worst then the fishmongers. So noisy i mean really noisy and their kids like running around keep banging onto our seats and they were like having pesta mcdonald on the plane. Which part of no outside food allowed do they not understand. Geezzz....however, glad to be home.
Overall Terengganu is ok la. But hard to find food and shopping places. Chinese kopitiams there are totally halal. And no shops open on Friday and Saturday. Food there very sweet. No christmas decorations or songs.
LOL. Me think i need to gob ack to thesising. Nearly due date. wish me luck. sigh
