each year i seems to b skippin class at the middle of my sem to join my frens. tis sem they plan to go redang then they change to tioman n in the end we ended up in langkawi. we went on saturday nite (16/6/2007) travellin by bus. we sat in a 25 seater bus at 11pm. the seat was big but not comfortable. i still like the bus i sat from NS.
Day 1(17/6/2007)
we had a very bumpy ride all the way there n we all could hardly sleep. we reach K.Perlis about 6.30am n we were the only 6 ppl there at the bus stop. we were quickly approach by a guy there tryin to rent us a vehicle at Langkawi. we were thinkin of rentin a brand new Serena but we were on a budget so we ended up wit a Vanatte. we sat the first ferry tat was goin to Langkawi. on the way there all Chor Han, Low n myself slept almost the whole trip. i think we all had the best sleep through out the day. when we were there getting the our pride n joy our trip (for 3 of us guys actually) we were so shock when we found out tat we did not have fuel. so we ask the guy tat gave us the car. he said there is fuel, RM5. we all keep quiet n ask for the direction to the nearest gas station. we tried our luck wit the hotel tryin to put our luggages in the room 1st but we ended up puttin our luggage in the van. we were very hungry n dunno where to eat. we saw a McD n we had McD for our breakfast.we were still very early so we decided to go to the Underwater World which is on the other side of the island. Chor Han was the driver for most of the time n i was the 1 leadin them to where ever they wanted to go, it was as if it is my hometown n i know the place very well. well Underwater World was ntg much to me as i have been there juz 2years ago n ntg much have change but goin wit my frens tis time was like a totally different experience. we spent about 2hours there. about lunch time the hotel staff called us sayin only 1of our room is ready n the girls wanted to go to the hotel as they r sticky n tired. all they wanted is a bed rite then. on the way back i decided to have a test drive on the van so i drove n next to me is chor han of course. it was quite a long time since i drove a manual so i was very rusty. the first corner i took it made they all horrified as i wasn’t usin the brake much. tat time they decided to ban me from drivin n i felt it was too but it was quite amazing how they manage to sleep wit my dangerous drivin at tat time.we spent most of our time at the hotel room until almost 4pm tat we guys decided to go out n enjoy the pool n beach after we move to our room. the 3guys went kayakin while the girls relax themself at the pool. the girls was so hungry tat they went n order 2 pizza which is very thin at the hotel as our lunch n it cost us a bomb. the lunch was RM190 i think. we left the hotel about 8pm to for our dinner n it too cost a bomb (RM111). we went shoppin for our chocolates n liquor after the dinner. Low bought a small bottle of Jack Daniel’s. at first 3 of the guys was drinkin onli n we were tryin to get Felicia n Claire to drink but they had the will power to keep away from the liquor n onli Phua tat drank. so 3 of us drank as usual i will b the 1st to turn red even though it was the 1st drink. all of them can enjoy their holiday witout any worries but i have to worry about my test when i get back home. we all chatted until almost 2am n went to bed.
Day 2 (18/7/2007)
tat day we slept until we all dun1 to get up as all of us were very tired. we did not get to go for the buffet breakfast as it was late so we went out to eat. we were on the way to Tanjung Rhu n we were reachin there juz a few kilometers to go when it started to rain. we were stuck at Tanjung Rhu discussing on where to go when the rain started to stop so we went to the beach n snap sum photos but as we took our last photo it started to rain again. luckily we were not very far away from the van so we ran back to the van n quickly as i was very afraid the tree branch could break n fall on our van. then we were really stuck at the middle of no where. we did not know where to go n wat to do. i decided to take them go to the cable car to look at the view as they were all very afraid to sit the cable car. the whole day it was rainin so we went back to the hotel. about 5pm the rain started to subside. we decided goin to kayak again as we haven’t had enough. while we were kayakin i found out tat the NS camp was juz next to Westin. we had our fun kayakin n we saw ppl walkin at the middle of the water so we went exploring. we were relaxing n Low saw a hermit crab. so we decided to catch it. we were have to much fun catchin the hermit crab to stop.we continue our hermit crab hunting until almost 7pm. we took the hermit crab back to our room n left it in th bathtub for us to play wit. we caught we had our dinner at 8pm n it was a rip off for a 5star buffet dinner. the food was miserable n lack of choice. we spent our time there until almost 10.30 when we decided to go out to buy more liquor but we sent the girls back to the. to our disappointment all of the shop was closed. we went back to the hotel n juz finish the half unfinished bottle of Jack Daniel’s. tis time round we manage to get Claire n Felicia to drink. Claire’s face was turnin red after drinkin a small shot mixed wit coke.
Day 3(19/7/2007)
hehe…. as usual i will b the guy tat give the wake n every1 is still very blur. the 17 hermit crab tat we caught was all dead when we got up. well tat least tis buffet we had a nice view n a much better breakfast wit load of variety. we din have much time after the breakfast so we had to b fast bcoz we had to check out of the room. as we were tryin to start the car, it wouldn’t start. we had to wait for the foreman to arrive to c wat is wrong wit the car. the foreman was shock when he saw the condition of the battery. so we had no choice but to follow him to his workshop to change the battery. i went wit Chor Han to the workshop. on the way back he was goin at 40 or 50km/h at a corner on a rainin day on the way back to fetch the rest of the gang. we did not know wat was on the other corner until we saw a sign in front of us n Chor Han had to stop on the brake at max to avoid hitting the sign n the teksi on the other side of the road. tat time it was our 1st driftin experience. we were tryin to get to go to the snake santuary but we couldn’t find it so we then headed to Tanjung Rhu again for another try but it was rainin again. so headed to the Air Hangat Village for a rest as all of us was still very tired. we then headed to the Langkawi Parade. we were there juz about an hour then we headed to the jetty for our dinner n abit more shoppin. we sat the last ferry out of Langkawi n we were planin to slep but it was juz to noise 2sleep. when we reach at the bus station we had plenty of time so we spend our time chattin. as the bus came n we entered the bus, every1 was very tired but i seems to b the most energetic. i blif all of them wasgoin to hit me but i still go on foolin around. at certain stop where there is more light i took my notes out to read. the ride was almost 8hours. it was even longer for us to get there. and i was juz hours away from my test. well from the looks of it we did not do much on tis trip but it was very tiring n kind of fun.
