Khays' Saliva: Traveling

Showing posts with label Traveling. Show all posts

Wanna go Korea. For a not too short stay. Holiday will be great, but high cost and short duration. Masters or studying would be better, but so much complication in the application. Gosh, I've grown so lazy to do anything since I started working... =S

Chiang Mai Trip

1 my camera's memory card has passed out. hopefully it's recoverable. It's barely half a year old. sad. going on a tour without a camera is like... free but weird. Whenever I see something I really wanna take a picture of I borrow a camera from the nearest person. I just walk my way and be. No pictures, nothing. Weird, but free.

2 it seems the kids like the tour guide and tour leader a lot. We played pranks on both of them, some silly 无理头 pranks. The brother was crazy yet serious. Imagine a mastermind laughing at his evil prank plans, then say, "What should we do about the disciplinary matters?" and made the room shut up in confusion. By that he meant to say "What should we do to make sure the prank group doesn't make noise and there is no spy or spoilers?" Crazy. I've always thought a prank is only a prank.

3 We started conversing in English. I said, "I'm from Jujube. My name is Jujuba." Then JiaMay said, "I'm from Malaysia, my name is Malaykia." WTH

4 KeYu is so cute! OMG wanna squeeze her into juice!

5 It was a family trip, ~~30 family members, 4 half family members and 3 friends~~ 34 family members and 3 friends. It felt so family and safe we can do anything. It was really nice... Young and old traveling together, having crazy fun together.

6 It it a good trip as I am in the transition period, no need to get souvenirs for friends nor colleagues. Families? They all went along, they can get their own souvenirs. As for myself, I got nothing other than boxes of Pocky biscuit sticks and 2 pair of pants.

CNY is here!

I can't decide.

To skip class or not to.

To stay over YY's place or to drive.

To trouble my aunt or not.

Gah. I should have just followed them back then to buy a bus ticket on the day I have 8am class.

40minutes 5buses

3 buses came and went. The crowd was just too terribly enormous to fit me.

The 4th bus came. I was almost there, half an arm's length more, but the door closed right in front of me and drove off. I was so close.

The 5th bus came, I almost wanted to go hysterical when the guy in front of me stopped, standing on the stairs by the door.

5 seconds later the guy moved up a step, and a step more. I told myself I have to get in no matter what. It's been 40minutes. Then I quickly stepped onto the bus before the door closes leaving me behind.

I made it. I stood on the stairs with 2 other guys.

I'm a personal private person. I need a lot of personal space. And riding in a Malaysian driver's bus standing isn't exactly pleasant. The guy sneezed at my leg, I felt the thin scarce hair on my leg catching the germs. Gross to the max.

Then the guy moved, got knows for what reason and touched me. I was so pissed, can't you just be still for 5minutes? What the freaking reason it was just remain still until we're there in this limited space! Urgh I hate guys, inconsiderate guys, gross inconsiderate guys!!!!

taiwan in pictures

now that i'm posting pictures from taiwan it reminds me that i haven't posted on my traveling in the usa. oh well.

the backpackers. kinda.

we went touring around taiwan. good choice of travel route. cuz despite 1/3 of the day spent sleeping in the hotel, we spend another half of the awake time traveling, which means sleeping in the bus while it goes around the island.

so Ju has brought her psp right. and her sketch book too!

1. to the...point i forgot its name. I love it cuz the cool shapes of the rocks and the breeze! (who doesn't love fresh air rushing into your nose after hours and hours sharing stale air in the bus with 24other people?

2. taiwan storyland-where they tell you the grandmother story. fun but creepy to walk in the deserted 40s town. We queued up for the cinema tickets (for the camera) but Jack put his hand out from the hole scaring the hell out of everyone especially Aunt GHong and me. *not for the faint hearted*

3. the reserved forest whatever with winding roads but pretty scenery making up for the nausea.. Where uncle attempted a pretentious suicide but unfortunately not stopped by anyone...

She is hugging on to him not because she loves him but because she's cold! (3 other photos with Ju and uncle also hugging them. boo) LOL not saying that she doesn't love him...

4. the marble factory. taiwan if full of marbles that's why everywhere has got marble floor and tables. super rich people.

5. at tainan the southest part of taiwan is this MaoBiTou (literal meaning: cat's nose point) nothing much but can't not love the breeze and scenery and sea~

6. taiwan's version of fisherman's wharf. nothing much again, but love the breeze. we love winter in taiwan because we won't freeze, only feel like peeing ice. LOL

7. Fo Guang Shan. a temple, nuff said.

8. expresident mr Chiang's house. small house huge garden. period.

9. world's most luxurious cruise. cheated by our tour guide. it's just a sampan. and it was bloody windy and cold but i like cuz it's fresh air. Plus we get free flow of super fresh oysters while 'cruising' around the oyster rearing shallow river. I don't take oyster but I tried, it was pretty decent.

10. a museum. end.

despite all the tourist spots, this place is full of yummilicious food.

we ate a lot of sausages and they are pork and they are heavenly~

must drink bubble tea. we got this from the store beside another store (duh) it was the greatest!) tiny 'pearls' and extra smooth texture and very strong aroma of tea. (now i'm a food expert).

ice-cream! this is 10NT, which is like our RM1. This is small size, large size available people.

we have 8to10 dishes every meal including steamed fish and prawns and soup and fruits (tomatoes or tangerines). so by the end of the trip everyone's sick of prawns especially.

Cold weather? worry not we drink ice. LOL the tourist guide gave me some lecture about this. hmmph~

Despite peeing and eating all over taiwan we visited 7-11s across the island!

M&Ms which we shared to buy but I never gave the money to Julianne uptill now was great especially the orange one. I forgot the other flavor though, almonds maybe.

random pix:

just because my hair is so brown!

the hotel recycles mouse! as the thing you put your roomcard and turn on the main switch of the room. cool huh.

We love doraemons! SOS! (bought from 7-11)

uncle goofing off again? (every time uncle tries to say something, tip= watch Ju's expression to predict if it's a lame joke or a description *wink)

Kiwi hotel- uncle got the extra large room with 2 double beds and a massage chair

another luxurious hotel room. 1st 3 nights crappy hotels, last 3 nights decent and cool ones. ah~ I love new hotels.

we visited quite a few places. but I'm putting some up here cuz I'm desperate to share. Cuz my facebook can't upload photos stupiak, or else i'll post the selected 160 pictures up. note: we (Jo, mum and I with 2 cameras) took 1100 photos only mar over the 8 days. LOL

not so amazing trip but awesome company so I had fun. =)

This time around the positive way

I waited anxiously for Joshua to come. This time along I did not think too much of it, of starting another semester again living there, the place i've learned to not love.

After all those hoo-has to Malacca, back home and to Taiwan and then back home again, to see HHin again, feelings his love to have him hug and kiss me endless times, it's time. Joshua finally came and we finally left the house.

The trip back was pleasant. I didn't fall asleep, for many things were running through my mind: mum telling me about my new year resoluation she made for me, HHin asking for me, how i'll go for korean food with Julianne, eating chicken rice at Jack's Gf's shop, how Jo laughed like a mad person, how Mum laughed like a ghost in the middle of the night, everything that happened in that short 3 weeks that felt like forever...

We had some short talks, Joshua, Hao and I. It was awkward at first but it went slightly more comfortable. Despite that I felt at ease, afterall I've known them since forever.

Coming back to KL just happened. Guess not thinking too much of it didn't build up too much negative thoughts before it even happened. I'm trying to change. I will cope positively, am doing so too.

it's the company that matters

跟丽霞说好了一起合照没办到
虽然与他不是很熟，不过每次回去都可以舒服得跟他聊起来
谢谢你，不介意被取笑是虾让我顿时觉得自在

Frankly, the HongKong trip was not that fabulous. The tourist spots were so-so, the schedule was crazy, the route was poorly planned, and all those stuff to be complained...
However, in my heart, was great. Thanks to the best company and all the laughter. I'm really glad that Hern could join us, really.

不甘心……
不甘心那么早来这地方
不甘心时间那么短
不甘心没多余的时间会朋友
不甘心没有勇气开口问
不甘心话到嘴边还吞回去
不甘心有那么短的一点时间我用来胡思乱想
只甘心与恒和阿柔的关系又拉近了那么一些些，
也甘心听了他用他的语言说"I love you"
