Holiday

One the best weekends in my life, i shall say.:)
Saturday night, fiance headed back to KL from terengganu after casting his vote. (i didnt though, coz i 'forgot' to register). Sunday 530 am, i got myself ready and picked him up at the bus station, performed our subuh, and started our journey to Perlis. Imagine, Fiance travelled that whole day. From trengganu to Kl to Perlis. Poor baby. It was really a trip to remember. Imagine, we went in my car. Yes, that old car u see, and its proven that its still good. The day i remember was bright, skies were blue, and it was a pretty warm day. The wedding was on the same day, thus explains why we took the road early in the morning. My concern was, i couldnt make it on time to join the rest of the classmates. :P hehehe..

I took the wheels first. Fiance was too sleepy to drive. so i said, okay. That was my first drive on the NSH. I've never really driven that far. way till the end of the world. huhu. So, excited as i was, i let fiance gets his rest. I can say that i did drive fast, constant at 140km/hr because i managed to get to tapah within 1 hour 15 mins. My stomach was already growling and i realised that i was getting back pain due to the driving, so we had breakfast, read about the latest results on the GE, and after 30 minutes, we resumed our journey to Perlis. I didnt bring my camera so no pics. hahaha..

1045 am, we were already in Juru. Traffic was pretty heavy and fuel was already running low. but the car could still do with that little petrol left. I had driven 450km already. Refueled at Gurun and resumed journey. We decided to go to Kangar from Alor Star, (that was by recommendation from a few friends) and urghh.. Traffic was heavy and i could only do 80km/hour on a trunk road and still had a good 45km to reach Kangar. When we reached Kangar, dear Fiance was already holding the map on the back of the wedding card. (i've never really trusted maps on wedding cards. The scale is not accurate, they tend to missed out on important landmarks, they always skip on the traffic lights.. erghhh.. but still, that was the ONLY thing we had to direct us to our friends house. And.. we couldnt find the roundabout. on the map! we made a few rounds, passed by the stadium, hospital.. and by then dear fiance was already pouting and restless. And i said, okay, lets ask someone. fiance came back with a smile on his face. He said, okay this is easy. And it was easy. we stopped by at an old mosque to get changed. By 125pm, we were already at the wedding. All excited to see classmates whom we've not met for ages, especially those who came with their partners, and best of all, i got to meet aimi!

the wedding was interesting, the food was good, we had good company as well, and we stayed there until 3pm. G, aimi and I planned to go to Penang to spend the rest of the holiday there, whereas the others wanted to stay in Perlis. So after the wedding, G brought me and fiance to Padang besar to see some stuff. He managed to get a rugby jersey and i managed to get nice brooches for a good price. (after much bargaining, ahahah!). We were there for an hour or so because we had other places to stop by. 530pm, we left for Jitra through changloon. We passed by Cuping, the only (i think) and biggest Ladang tebu in Malaysia. and it was all so beautiful and the view was just breath-taking. Subhanallah. There were children running on the field with their cows. owh so carefree. If only life had been that simple right? ahaha. nevertheless, we stopped by Jitra, and then waited for G in Gurun. By 930 we were on the Penang bridge. yeeaaaahooooo!!! ahahaha. However, there isnt much to be seen. i mean, there were constructions left and right, but it was fun. I'm always fascinated when on the bridge.

we stayed in SMH penang. Had Nasi Kandar that night, and G brought us for some sightseeings. there isnt much to see since it was already dark, (and i fell asleep immediately after dinner in the car) but they managed to 'lepak' for abit at gurney drive. i missed that one though. ahahahaha. reached SMH at 1.30 am and went straight to bed. Penat okeh, i've been driving the whole day! 730 am, fiance woke me up. he called me on the phone by the way. then, we got changed and went down for breakfast. melantak xhengaat k. the food i can say wasnt that good, but its better than not having any. After bfast, G went to see her bf so the three of us, went toothpaste hunting. hahahaha. lepak2 at the hotel, by 1230 we were ready to check out n, went straight to pdg kota to mkn pasembur. Fiance, myself and Aimi spend 10 ringgit each for a plate of pasembur. Mahal okay! But i told fiance, its okay because we dont get to eat pasembur every day.. ahahahaha.. And then it was time to say Goodbye.

Sad.. i wished i had more time with my friends. But anyhow, i really enjoyed the trip though it was a short one. I always believe that planned trip wouldnt do for me. I like unplanned trip. yeah.. G took us for one last ride before we actually say goodbye, it was the ferry ride back to mainland. Ahahahaha.. ecstatic i was, really! Penang have always amused me. I just dont know why. By 2.30pm we were already on the highway, southbound. Fiance took the wheels first this time but insisted that i drive from Tapah to KL. hurmmm.. it really was a trip to remember.. minus the exhaustion.:P The only thing is, when we reach home, to have to think that the next day is work day, all the excitement went away, 'pooff'. it went away..:) Happy working everyone.
