ATV Adventure

Assalamualaikum, how are you guys doing? I hope everyone are doing fine. ;)

So, how's your weekend? Well, I'm going to brag about mine. HAHA!

Being young, energetic and adventurous me, lead me to another adventure in Perak. I actually planned this from last year to go there, but since there are some constraints (time and budget), I have o postponed this plan. So, finally...!

I'd arrived to Kuala Kangsar, Perak form Kuala Lumpur at 2 pm something, and Hanum picked me up. She took me for lunch as my stomach was empty. It's because of my habit that I won't eat or drink anything before I took off if I were going somewhere by bus. I'd afraid I need to go to the loo in the middle of somewhere that unknown. Gitu.

After lunch and perform our prayer, we went to the ATV, Jalan Bukit Larut. Finally, JYEAHH!

I was so excited, and in the same time afraid too because I don't know whether I can manage to ride the ATV. 

So, the instructor teach us about the gear, break, and how to turn on the engine if it suddenly stop. After make sure that all of us understand, he take us for a trial ride. At first Hanum was at behind him, and after he saw how clumsy and weak I was, he told me to ride right behind his motorcycle.

After the second round, he brought us to the real trail. He did warn us that the trail slope might exceed 45 degree up and down. My heart beat even more faster. And I thought, I AM SO DEAD! For a second, I don't think I can make it out. T^T

So, we started. The trail are totally rough and tough. I felt like I'd almost terbalik all of the time. I wonder how Hanum done it so smooth.

It turn out so well and fun. I certainly have no regret. And definitely will try it again if have any chances.

 I looked awesome am I? I know. HAHA!

I wore the safety helmet in the wrong way. Duhh.. --"

Almost forgetting, there are nice river flowing at the end of the trail. The instructor gave us some minutes to took some photos and rest before we heading back to the camp.

So, after an hour spend on riding ATV, we decided to get some food to eat as we're all are hungry. We agreed to eat some Yong Tau Fu first, because we were gong to eat Ketam Lembut/Sof Crabs after that.

The foods are awesome, I tell you. You guys should try the soft crabs at Kuala Gula. I never knew, in my entire life, there were some species of crabs that so soft. You don't have actually to peel (?) the skin, because the skin so lembut. And it so sweet and my mouth are literally watery when I think about those sweet, soft crabs. 

The scenery. Subhanallah. The food, alhamdulillah.

The next day, Hanum took me to Pasar Karat at Ipoh for sight seeing. The place are incredible amazing because that's the place people buy and sell so-called ancient and antique stuff. Some of the stuff I never see it before. And I was like, very cool liao!

This bought by Hanum's boyfriend at the price RM25 only. If I'm not mistaken.

Well, I'm not buying anything. I do fancy antique stuff, but to buy the, I have to think through because I'm not the kind of person that can keep things well maintain. :3

Again, after that they took me to get some lunch before I'm off back to Kuala Lumpur, because my ticket are at 12pm. Well, the lunch were awesome to. :)

Rojak Bellamy (this one is at KL), Nasi Ganja, Yong Tau Fu.

What I call, Heaven on earth. HAHA!

Perak have been nice to me, and I certainly will be back again to this beautiful state. 

And Hanum, thank your for your hospitality and everything. You and your family are being such a welcoming and good hosts. 

So, how about your weekend? 

Till then, adios amigo!

Skytrex Adventure

Assalamualaikum, and good evening everyone. (I wrote this at 7.41pm)

Do you know about Skytrex Adventure? Well, I didn't know either at the first place. Being young (eh hem..) and energetic me, I did Google "extreme outdoor Kuala Lumpur", and TADAAAAA... Skytrex Adventure appeared. But the location aren't really at Kuala Lumpur though. 

Skytrex's website

So I asked my friend whether she is up to it, and she said yes. Then I told her to manage this activity for us. 

We did booking for this activity thru online as advised. We chose the hardest one, the activities that pump out our adrenaline, the extreme challenge. Extreme challenge consists 34 of challenges, with some platforms reaching the height of the 22 meter.

We arrived Shah Alam yesterday, in a group of 13 persons.

Oh, in before, this entry will have no photos of us from the activities as I waited from the others the photo and I will update the photos (if any) in another post.

We arrived, and we have to sign some form for emergency contact if anything happen to us during the activities. Then we have to wear the harness for safety reason lah of course. HAHA!

After all done with the harness, we've been taken to a instructor to brief to us about how to use the pulley and carrot-something (I don't know how to spell it. Sorry.) that attached together with the harness. He did tell us the rules, the do and don't.  And then, he told us to try first. 

It's raining though in the middle of briefing. Heavy raining and we stop first. 

We waited like an hour plus, before we resumed.

After finish the training, then start our first challenge. We have to climb up a 14 meters height ladder. I told you guys, your hand must be strong if you want to climb the ladder. My hand are aching right know when I typing this post. (--")

And we start the flying fox. Quite high, and quite far you know. I did not really know how to landing for the flying fox you know, so, I can't really manage to slow down a bit, so my hand are bruising right now. T^T

After some challenges, one by one of our members have surrender. At some point I want to surrender to, but I will not waste my RM50. HAHA! And I wanted to finish it. And yes, I did, after like 3 hours.

If you seek out an adventure, I totally recommend this and the fees are affordable too. 

And I'm planning to go there again. Certainly.

I wish they have some photographers up there that took photos of us candidly, as we can't bring our phone and camera up there (well, you can bring it of course but I wouldn't risk it). 

So, how is you weekend?

Ohh, it's Monday tomorrow. Good Luck and happy working.

The Season. Part 2

Assalamualaikum and Hi.

Apart of this rainy season, this time around at Malaysia is now actually are school holiday. Yeay for the students! 

In Malaysia, school holiday means a perfect time for some of us to held a wedding or engagement ceremony. And I was like, Ya Allah, there are so many ceremony to attend to. And if I can split my self into 2 or 3 person, I think I will attending EVERYONE'S kenduri!

For my friends who get married or engaged, congratulations and barakallahumawabarakah! May Allah blessing be upon you and your life partner. I am truly sorry, if I'm not be able to attend your ceremony (for those who invited me).  I try my best though to attend all of the ceremony.

So, last Saturday I was attend one of my closest friend during my uni time ceremony, we were late actually and the ceremony is done. But LUCKILY, they still got foods for late comers like us. :3

Congratulations Yaqeen and Luqman. Thanks for inviting us. 

And uh, uhmm... Everyone, please meet my new life partner, 'Adam'.

Please not be mistaken, 'Adam' is behind me, not the person beside me. HAHA! Yes, I finally bought a car. So, after I get my 'P' license, I can freely take 'him' whenever I want. Right now, he is resting at my father's house. Ohh, I miss 'him'.

So, till then. Bye for now.

WDD 2012

Assalamualaikum, and hi.

Fuhhh, today was a very hectic day for me. As I wrote earlier on my previous entry, I have join a walkathon for World Diabetes Day. I was fun, and I have my first experience, walk with strangers. HAHA!

I was late actually, and Kak Huda keep calling me. But lucky me, Julie and her brother willing to fetch me at my house. When we arrived, the event almost are almost start. The three of us are "kelam-kabut", but somehow managed to took some photo at the starting point. Kak Huda also managed to upload it on Facebook immediately after that. HAHA!

With Kak Huda

With Julie

Obviously, I'm looking like women older than my actual age. Arghhh!!!

When it started, Julie left us behind and just walk ahead and never turn back. I tried to chased her thou, but I can't find her. And I left Kak Huda behind, I forgot that her leg have been injured. --" 

Luckily, we've managed to get to the finish line, safely. YEAH!!!

After that Julie and I go to some booth and do some medical check up. 

I may be skinny, but I have a big butt. T^T

My blood pressure reading are 84 something, and I nearly collapse when queuing for the medical check up. Lucky me, that Julie around. I hold on to her when I almost blackout. She keep asking me whether I was okay, but in me head I kept telling my self that I CAN'T COLLAPSE, because it will be embarrassing moment for me. I managed to sit, and some paramedic and Julie took me to a tent specially for emergency. I lie down for a moment and they gave some salt water. After that, when I can get up, and stand for a while, they let me go. Thanks a lot Julie, for being there, or else I think right now I'm not be able to write and tell the story about this right now.

And this is the second time I almost collapse, the first time happened during Eid Adha. 

Ohh, I am such a weak person. I have to eat something to increase my blood pressure. But Julie told me that I have to eat some internal organ, which I hardly can eat. Bleargh...

Till then, I'll write more often. Take care and have a healthy lifestyle guys. 

Bye.
