Bits of friends, outing, photography, travel...   /   » 4 Comments

Here we reached to the bottom of the hill (time on my watch: 8+am), which we called this “Pasar”, the small little town, Sungai Lembing.

Street walking: Pasar Sungai Lembing

Hunger. now we heading to pasar for food. The weather was so nice, sunny, shinny day~ blue sky, white clouds… but hot & sweats, eeew….


see 3 of them… towels round their neck + holding DLSR, walking passed Java Street.


these were really early birds. My advice, please don’t walk underneath…


aivy and andrew look so professional.


Hardly to have 4 of us in the photo.

The fascinating sunrise at Sungai Lembing

Bits of friends, outing, photography, travel...   /   » 2 Comments

The next day.
When: woke up at 4 in the morning
What i did before the sunrise: took a cold bath (山水浴), brush my teeth, drank a cup of milo
What to bring?: 1. Torch light 2. towel 3. insect repellent 4. camera 5. a bottle of water 6. empty mind (as told by kokwai)

Morning walk: Panorama Hill

It was a jam. We didn’t expect that such a huge amount of people going up to the hill. Really *people mountain people sea (人山人海)*
It took me around 45 minutes - 1 hour to reach the peak. It is consider a pleasant walk way compare to Broga hill. It was still.. very dark.


kokwai was setting up his camera, early bird found their best spot for shooting.


testing.


*sweet*


never seen such an amazing sunrise before, just infront of me, so near and it was so warm and beautiful.


like painting~


now u can see how jammed it was. hehe… going down to the hill.

next stop… heading to pasar.

Sungai Lembing

Bits of friends, outing, photography, travel...   /   » 4 Comments

Another hiking + photography trip.
Where: Sungai Lembing (林明), Northwest of Kuantan Pahang
When: 7 - 9 March 2009
Who: 25 of us in this trip, including me, cheeheng, kokwai (the organiser), benchin, andrew, aivy, ah fai, sherrina, behn… and a lot more.

First visit: Gua Charas

we reached this cave right after our lunch at kuantan town. This is not as big as Gua Tempurung, but also quite tiring. coz rabbit seldom do exercise, hehe. *sweat*


on the way up to the cave. *woooow*


Scene looking out from the cave.


tree trunk inside the cave.


Actually nothing much there, a cave that last time they did some tin mining, and there is a sleeping buddha in it.

Second stop: Check in hotel (rumah kampung)

25 people squeezed into a single storey “bungalow”? with a sharing of 1 toilet+bathroom? erm… we were actually thinking, how many minutes should set for each to shower?

after we back from gua charas, the roof of the house was leaking everywhere, coz rain quite heavily after the cave visit. not more than an hour, kokwai has decided to rent another house and shift half to there… *we are the lucky one* hehe

here we reached the rumah papan.


cute little door… main entrance of the papan house. in this small little town, pretty safe, coz landlord “the auntie” actually didn’t provide us any lock or key for the house and rooms, we these city boys and gals were quite worried about this.. now i know we actually living in such an insecure life everyday. *i miss lembing…*


kokwai, benchin and ah fai stayed in this room. the lights were from our room. it’s just looks like my grandpa house at batu pahat. *i miss batu pahat..*


wow, found hen lay eggs here… so cool, this is the first time i saw the eggs that still laying on the “nest”. i have no idea why the chicken here so cincai, simply lay eggs, that’s actually on top of a stool or cupboard and lots of junks around. *bad mama*

at the back yard of the papan house. *happy* - this photo taken from kokwai

to be continue…

放风筝 记

Bits of friends, outing, photography...   /   » 1 Comment

生活在这繁忙的城市,哪有人还记得这小时候的玩意儿-放风筝? *放飞机*倒是有的…
我们终于在2009年的前一个星期,凑够人数… 来吧,我们去放风筝!

位于甲洞的 metropolitan park,有指定的风筝区. 很靠近 batu caves.
通常这玩意都会在三点至四点开始 *因为不会太晒* 呵呵,我乱扯的啦,应该是风比较大吧…
一路上前往 metropolitan park 都下着毛毛雨 *好担心呢* 再改期就明年了. 我们也不管那么多了,靠近目的地的天空已经飘着无数各式各样的风筝,我已经偷偷在选着我想要的款式咯…我们迫不及待,飞身到正门口,两对面的 uncle auntie 一见到我们就不停推销自己档口的风筝,大的,小的,便宜的,贵的…讲了一阵子,切!原来他们是一伙的,明明就是两夫妻,一人摆一档,什么嘛?!

我和 cheeheng 很快就决定合买了一个彩色的…嗯,就是图里的那一个,500尺的线,一人出 rm10. 可是还下着毛毛雨,uncle 说这是过云雨,很快就会停雨.

奇怪,那四个家伙,没动静…

很快速的,我,yenc 和 cheeheng 就把风筝飞上天了,天助我也,风正好很猛…一直放线,越放越高…我们的风筝越来越渺小了.同时,jook,shyng 和 jaemy 不见了,回来时他们手中拿着两个风筝.yenc 和 jaemy 就放他们的风筝,同时,jook 和 shyng,拿起笔写了些什么的,在他们的风筝,相信是*爱情密语*,我们也不愿看,呵呵!

cheeheng 和我轮流控制风筝,500尺一阵子就到了尽头.
转头看看 jook 和 shyng,他们的不是卡住树就是飞不高.再看 yenc 和 jaemy,他们很努力的跑,跳…yenc 已经披头散发了,像是淋了一场大雨,jaemy 累得躺在草原上… 呵呵!
结果他们的还是有飞得很高啦… 而且 yenc 和 jaemy,也真的把风筝放了..飞得远远的…不再回头了.

原来收线也挺吃力的…好不容易才把线收回. 好玩!

X’mas gathering at Top Hat

Bits of eat, friends...   /   » 2 Comments

time flies.. year end again, but i think it’s the most joyful month of the year. why? coz there will be holidays, a lot of gatherings with friends… and most importantly, year-end sales!!

we’ve been having this x’mas gathering + gift exchange since… erm… erm.. 3 years ago? correct me if i’m wrong.
angeline was to assigned as the organiser for this year. very nice of her created this e-flyer (职业病) hehe, but really.. really.. unexpected & most unexpectedly, this year… all of us (yema, liz, gigi, angeline & i) attended. *full attendance* accompanied with their husband & boyfriends (liz’s hubby - sebastian, gigi’s darling - brian, angeline’s sweetheart - kurt). as usual, the “alwiz busy team” (my hubby - cheeyen & yema’s hubby - yezeung) not joining us for this dinner.

here’s the lovely e-flyer by angeline. woooo*

we decided to have a cozy place for dinner, top hat recommended by angeline. it’s bungalow nearby KL conventional center. we had a small room for just 8 of us, maybe they can sense we will create lotsa noise.. haha, but actually the hall there is nicer, with british kinda deco, very warm feeling and home feel, and our room.. yea.. there’s a xmas tree, at least got some xmas feel and some paintings with frames on the wall. the food there not bad but a bit pricey. i ordered a caesar salad with beef bacons… coz.. i was having a slight fever+flu *i will never miss our xmas gathering!!!*

everyone of us are so talkative, hehe… a lot of topics to share. the room never been quiet for the few hours of dining time. kurt is a bit shy, maybe it’s the first day we met, cannot expect too much coz angeline keep him so safe and secret.


Top left: liz, angeline, gigi, rabbit, yema | Bottom left: sebastian, kurt, brian

*a reminder for those who wants to try this restaurant, ask clearly is the plain water serve FREE or.. we’d being charged for RM72 (they claimed their plain water “EVIAN”) which all of us feel cheated coz they didn’t even ask whether we want them to serve plain water or not.

anyway unhappy things just forget about it. we had a great day, good friends gathered, everyone of us got a pressie to take home, i’ve got gigi’s lovely cups for 2 and candles, hehe.. thanks.

organiser for xmas 2009 will be gigi. and next year, we will have a new member joining us, a pretty little girl, hehe.

merry xmas to everyone!
