After kena sound ngan Mass mengenai tahap ke"slow"an aku mengupdate blog, trus aku terpanggil utk mengupdate blog aku malam nie. Actually I just got back from a holiday to Redang. Before aku lupa suma fakta2/point2 penting mengenai trip aku kali nie baik aku update cepat2 dulu. (Mas U should proud to be my motivator in blog2 matters nie..).
Ok before that, dah tajuk pun "Prequeal", I would like to share my hassle and obstacles that I went through before gathered up with the trip members at Hentian Duta, KL. As scheduled, we supposed to meet there around 10.30pm as the bus will depart on that time. My early plan was that Along will send me to the commuter station once I got back from work. However, I received a message form Uda(who study at Indon) that I need to pass her new notebook to her friend's house at Gombak coz her friend will be going back to Indon on Sunday night. What??? Mmg sesak nafas jap time tu nak fikir cammana nak adjust masa. Dah la call2 Syana (Uda's friend) x reti2 nak angkat tepon. I never been to her house before, after asking Uda to text me her address suddenly I got an idea. Gombak and Sentul was not very far. Suddenly I remembered Nick who stay there and all plan had changed entirely.
I went back from ofice around 6pm, arrived at home cepat2 sambung packing. Nasib baik pagi td dah sorted out baju2 yg nak dibawa. Bawak my blue Deuter jer senang, lagipun ade space lg so kalau ade pertambahan ape2 still bole sumbat.
Right after maghrib salam2 Along n hubby, kiss2 anak buah then trus memecut ke Gombak.
Alhamdullilah the traffic was smooth that time but my problem was to find Tmn Desa Minang or as per Uda's, the landmarks were Greenwood Bus Station and Shell. Sempat jgkla tanya officemate kat mana Greenwood tu, but still x confident. Ingatkan nak Google sebelum kuar tadi, tp x sempat. I managed to call Syana (bertuah punya budak, she's not at home but I could pass to his brother instead). Then using MRR2 I supposed to exit to Jalan Gombak, but there was one lorry blocking my way on that juction so I missed it. Mmg cuak gile time tu, dlm hati siap berfikir sampai Pahang la aku karang... x silap2 ke Terengganu naik keta. Nasib baik sebelum tol Gombak tu ade lagi satu exit ke Gombak melalui Duke's Highway. Duke pun Duke la... mmg nak menangis time tu, tiba2 x sampai 1km ternampak lak signboard Tmn Greenwood. yes..yesss awal2 lg mmg aku dh himpit tepi xnak kasi kejadian yg sama berulang then trus masuk lorong tu. Ok, penderitaan ku masih belum berakhir. After passed through Pasar Malam, I was stucked in the housing area and not a single signboard available to direct me at least to the main road. I just follow the cars and my instict, sometimes bila nampak unsur2 jalan besar hati tu dh lega tp bila balik ke lorong2 sempit perut dh mula cuak. Jam menghampiri angka 9pm. I had informed Lina to be at Hentian Duta around 9 sumthing so I budgeted that at 9pm I supposed to be odw to Sentul already. Alhamdullilah sekali lagi, maybe kerana niatku baik after pusing2 dlm kawasan perumahan tu suddenly I kuar at the main road and I could see a signboard Tmn Greenword. Menambah lg kelegaan, Shell was just next to the main road. Yahoo!!! After that everythings were just easy, pass notebook to Syana's brother then to Bdr Baru Sentul, locked my car properly next walked to LRT Sentul Timur took train to PWTC. It took around 15mins so I managed to reach PWTC on time.
Sampai2 stesen, x tau lak Hentian Putra ke arah mana, luckily once more I met Akbar yg tgh menunggu Piyut. Raining started heavily that time, so we have to wait until it stops.
After the rain abated, three of us menapak ke Hentian Putra to see Dee, Syazwan, Syam n Mas already there except Ketua rombongan iaitu Lina & kak yatie. Fuhh lega, mission accomplished and now br bole start concentrate on the trip to Redang.
Yes, finally I made it!! Hentian Putra here I come.
I stop my writing here, mau tido dulu and will continue tomorrow. Good night everyone.

Perlis Last Day - Timah Tason & Pasar Besar
Mission accomplished, after “salam2” with the bride & the bridegroom we headed to our last destination. Hmmm think…….. where is the most compulsory place that people will normally go when they visit Kedah/Perlis…?? Got it…...? Yes?? No??
Well I think you all got it right, of course la PADANG BESAR. A big shopping bazaar that located at the border of Malaysia-Thailand which have almost everything. Clothes, accessories, bags, foods, pinggan mangkuk, periuk belanga, plants.. you name it-you got it!
However, on the way to Padang Besar we stopped first at TIMAH TASOH LAKE, a big dam that have a very beautiful scenery.
A bit about Timah Tasoh, it supplies water to Perlis folks as well as prevents any occurrence of flood in the state. The scenic Timah-Tasoh Lake is also a sanctuary for migratory birds especially from the cold countries as this freshwater lake with its natural surroundings provides much needed food and shelter for these birds.
We changed our cloths from baju kurung to more casual attire and took photos.
then continued our journey.
Our trips ended here, before went back we filled our stomach at the restaurant at kangar.
Alhamdullilah, we managed to reach KL safely at 4am. Everyone was exhausted and flatted. Even this was a very short trip and we miss to explore more on Gua Kelam, it still leave me with another sweet experience to remember. Thanks to kayrie who help a lot in guiding us on the direction at Perlis, not forgetting Lina, Miss Yati and Aishah(Uda) for being a great companion for this trip. Looking forward for others trip with u ollss…. Hahaha definitely after this our target will be trip to Redang island.
Wa..... cant wait. I ‘ll end my writing now, hope U all enjoy reading as much as I enjoyed this trip. Adios………

Perlis Trip - Nick's Wedding
Now, back to our major focus here… attended Nick’s wedding.
We checked out from our homestay around 12pm, to Nick's house at Mata Ayer near Chuping. Alhamdullilah we got no problem with the direction (thanks to the org Kampung again) who were very friendly and accurate to guide us.
The Bride & Groom already waited at the door to greet us once we arrived. We took some photos first.
"Makan" time!!!
We had experience different wedding custom and culture here. Look at the lunch menu, there were no nasi minyak and ayam masak merah as usual, we been served with nasi putih, sup daging and sambal belacan. So superb!!
Nick's house was just opposite the paddy field so apalagi we continued to take another photos here. We had been through 8 hours of journey, thus any chance to see a paddy field definitely could not be miss!! (Bukan selalu dpt pergi Perlis kan...)
Enough with our "photogedix", everybody bids goodbye to Nicks. Delivered our wishes and off we went to our next destination before going back to KL.

Perlis Trip - Paddy Field
26th Feb 10
We woke early at 7am. All of us seem to have a very uncomfortable night as everyone complaining about how hot it was yesterday, sweating on the bed, felt like been stuck in a room with no air…
Our programme that morning was to visit Kayrie’s relative which took just 20mins from our homestay. Her aunty sells Nasi Lemak every morning at a small stall in front of her house so obviously we were served by a Nasi Lemak also for our breakfast.
Information seeking session
Family business… laris tu
Front view
Erk… cat consolation session….
Saat ditunggu…
Kayrie je yg berborak, yg lain dh khusyuk dah mengadap makanan
Besides attending Nick’s reception, our other’s objective to visit Perlis was absolutely to see a Paddy field... took as much photos as we could. Now the chance came right on time as the paddy field was just in front of us, we all got so excited. Understood, as I would say Kayrie’s aunt ushered us to go to the field for photoshoot session. I knew all the org kampung would called us “jakun” with our actions but who cares… for the sake of photography, this was the moment we could not miss. We took lots of crazy photos… refer below :
P/S : Ikutkan kalau nk upload suma pose kami kt sini, 3pages pun lom tentu cukup. I just selected the best among the best to be published here…. Chewah (best ker….?)
Bergambar kenangan dgn tuan rumah before balik. Walaupun mmg nampak sgt kami dtg hanya utk breakfast n posing di sawah, kesudian tuan rumah melayan kami dgn baik, menjamu kami dgn sarapan smpai kenyang sgtlah dihargai. ...
On the way back, we stopped at FATIN CORNER for a cold cendol…. I told ya it was damn hot there….
According to kayrie’s this place expecially it’s cendol was the hottest in town. Lots of celebrities had come here….
Proof…. WALL OF FAME..
We went straight to our homestay and bersiap + checked out to Nick's house.

Perlis Trip - Dinner @ Kuala Perlis
Our plan that night to dine at Kuala Perlis. We arrived around 9pm, had a seafood and enjoyed the scenery there. For information, Kuala Perlis is a place for those who wanted to take ferry to Langkawi Island. I’ve been here numerous time to Langkawi before, but never imagine this place was so happening at night… Who knows from a packed ferry terminal at a day time turned to be a best place for dined with plenty of restaurants which are popular for seafood and the local specialty of 'laksa' (rice noodle dipped in a fish-based gravy).
Here were our xtvt's that night :
First took a photo to be uploaded to blog, FB and etc
Start to choose our seafoods.. so freshly caught!
Back to our seat and took photo again with our drinks
Laksa belut (eel) anyone?
This was not part of Fear factor show... Laksa tasted so good here!
Sotong goreng tepung (Fried Squid)
Grilled Fish
Time to finish all out!!!
After dinner kami jalan2 sekitar area Kuala Perlis, really excited to try a horse ride but the queue was long. Kasi can la kat family n budak2 merasa.
Presenting to you, Misya..
Bunga2 cinta with misya
So happy
shopping at nearby night market (Bazaar).
What are U staring at Lina??
Lina looked interested with the lion...
Flatted, it was so hot even at night, mmg x puas2 minum air sejuk.
On the way home to our homestay, we wandered around the Kangar area and reached home nearly at midnight. Sampai rumah, all of us re-bathed again as we all sweated a lot and to reduce our body temperature before going to sleep. Then….zzzzz..z
