CNY 2008

Same as every year, my family will go back to our hometown- T'ganu. Whenever I say I'm born there, no one believes... "You don't look like you're from T'ganu, you look like KL lang more...", "Don't lie la, why on earth would you want to use T'ganu to joke about?!"... Hmm, how could we distinguish a person's birth place just by the way they look? The skin colour? The weird fashion? Some of my friends even think that the Chinese in T'ganu must wear long sleeves, go grocery store must have a line for males and another for females while paying, da da da. You wouldn't know if you've not been there, it's just the same as KL la! We still wear shorts, sleeveless top... run across the road to the opposite to shop.

Back to T'ganu for CNY has always been the same. First day, go to the beach. Second day, go air panas LA. If there's a third day, then we will go Lata Tembakah - the waterfall. For this year, we went back home on the third day, so there's no Lata Tembakah!

Day 1-

Reached the beach. Wanted to swim, but all the aunty uncle say to dangerous, strong current... So it ended up like the picture. Just by standing there, wait for the wave to hit our legs, could miraculously bring lots of joy to us. City people la what to do, never tasted the salty sea water as much as the kampung kids. Eventually, after a while, the boys will "accidentally" fall and started
to swim in it.

Some of us played football, whenever the goalie kicks, all of us musn't look up, the sand would just fall into our eyes. Worst still if you open your mouth... lol... Extremely fun though, fell hard on the sand while kicking... busy clearing the sand off the face while kicking the ball....

When we went back to grandma's house, all of us were forced to taste this slimy thing then guess what it is before entering the house. You wouldn't have the slghtest idea what it is... It's very oily, jelly-like, fishy smell... It's pork!!! The Russian customer knew it's our new year, so he bought pork knuckle and cook it for 7-hours. So in the pic, the jelly-like substance is gelatin... which means it's fats!!! All of us felt like vomtting after eatting it, only like four guys love it. Guys do have weird taste huh... lol

After dinner, after gambling, after talking until there's nothing to talk about, we went back to the hotel to sleep. Believe it or not I slept at One Utama's hotel. It ain't One World, it's called One Utama'as hotel. I think 'cause OU at PJ is like a must-go place, so they want to have the fame by having the same name but at Jerteh instead. Ground floor is the mini shopping complex, upstairs are the hotel rooms.

First time stepping into a box which loves to be called RED!!!

Oh well, Sun Mei insisted on taking this picture for remembrance... Was quite pai seh. I guess people walked pass me thinks that I'm really a big fan of Redbox. Not exactly... It's my first time to have a karaoke fun time in it!!! Yup, first time!! I'm sure you'll be thinking that I'm some ulu girl, from god knows where, who suddenly appears on earth... What to do, just so happen everytime my friends go I would either be outstation or coaching camps. It took me one year (or maybe longer than that) to fulfil my promise.

So call 5 Kld outing, well I just called the girls. Then, some people ask whether got guys going anot, so for the guys... sorry yea... super last minute. Thanks for coming anyway!!! I wanna thank Wan Tian and her friend, Zhi Wei!!! For giving me angpau lol... You girls ain't that old ya know! They aren't in the pic... left early... Really hoped all of you enjoyed yourselves, and will always remember my unique voice haha. I promise I'll learn all the words properly, lol I've skipped some of the lyrics 'coz just simply forget how to read those words. Worst come to worst, I'll just memorize the whole song like Wei Liang did! lol... (so this is what taiwan idols for huh?! motivate people to speak mandarin...)

We sang from 4-8.30pm. I don't think we will even stop if we're not hungry. So yea, we went DOME to have our dinner. Haven't been there for quite a long time. Why are there only the four of us? Hmm, quite a story. It's good if you don't know about it! =]
