28/2/09 ~ 29/2/09 Sitiawan & Pantai Remis

The 3rd day of CNY, my family and I and some church freinds went to Sitiawan,Perak. During our journey, we passed through a paddy plantation and we are city people, so, we get down of the car and start snapping pictures and chasing cranes hahaha



We went to visit turtles in Pasir Panjang Segari. You might thought only Terenggganu have turtles, I have that opinion too, but, the fact is, there are turtles in Perak. Well, actually it's a turtle conservation area, Pusat Pengurusan Penyu. This is the place where they will dig up the turtle eggs, protect them until they hatch, let some back into the sea and keep some for research. Most of the turtles there were greenback turtles. The place was not dirty, but it is full of houseflies flying everywhere. They said it's because of the chicken farm next to it....


Then, we went to a fisherman village and we were supposed to spend our night there. Some prefer the church because it was cleaner, more comfortable and air conds were available hahahaha... Although the village were not that clean, not very comfortable and only fans were available, we had a great time there learning how to fish. The best thing was I've learnt how to catch fishes using a net and I really caught some! It means I won't starve to death if the economy continues to drop LOL


The next morning, we had a very very cheap breakfast. Can you still find RM0.50 nasi lemak in Klang? It is impossible right. But, it is possible in Pantai Remis. The normal nasi lemak cost merely RM0.50, seafood nasi lemak with fish and prawns cost RM0.90 and kaya glutinous rice cost RM1.30. It's really really cheap!



After our cheap breakfast, we went to a fish wholesale factory. That was the first time I saw so many fishes at a time in my whole life!

These fishes were used to make salted fish...

After our fishy trip, we had our lunch in Andrew's kampung, Changkat Kruing. It is a small kampung where most of the villagers catch prawns to survive. It was a tradition that they sure will have wedding or party during the CNY because only during CNY all the youngsters will come back from working. It was lucky for us to have a birthday party of grandpa, we had our lunch as if we had it in a restaurant with 10 dishes and a dessert. The food were tasty and a lot but the place was full of houseflies again! The houseflies came from their neighbour which was a rubber factory... If you have not been in a rubber factory before, you won't understand the smell of it. It was really very smelly! However, that factory was much more better than the one I visited last year in Melaka. Due to the large amount of flies, we had to eat fast to prevent the flies from landing on our food and cutleries. We managed to kill some flies by hitting them with cloth and the electric racket, and I killed 3 flies usng 100 Plus LOL

Happy moo~ moo~ Year!!!

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!
MAY THE YEAR OF OX BRINGS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY HEALTH, WEALTH AND PROSPERITY!!!

Im back!

hahahaha...sorry for disappearing so long! School had just reopen for 3 weeks and CNY had arrived. These 3 weeks were exhausting weeks. The first week was still ok, but the 3rd and 4th weeks were really really busy. Each and every day I have activity to join. Tuition classes were as normal but when the rumah sukan training were added in and every morning have marching traning, I really have no time for myself.... I think this was the 2nd time I went for rumah sukan training during my secondary school life. 1st time was during Form 1 and this was the 2nd time. If it's not because of koko marks, I would just stay at home and study.... I always tell myself to be patient, but when I think it is just the beginning of the year, I still have 10 months to go!!!!

I still have 10 months more to suffer, but I still have 10 months only to study for my STPM. There are so many topics to study, so many facts to remember, so many theories to uderstand.... Form 6 is really not that easy.... Heard my teacher said the next batch of Form 6 will be like matrix way of study, every 3 months is consider a semester, and after every sem, you can just forget about everything you've study for the past 3 months. Furthermore, my school, STAR was chosen to be the school where all the Form Sixes from Klang will listen to the lecture. Just imagine, my school is a very small school with very old 1 floor buildings and Form 6 block is the newest building with 3 floors. Where to find the place to fit all the Form Sixes?

Well, I think that's all for this post. I just wana post something and so I did a summary on what I've gone through in January hahahaha...
