The Day with the Jewel of Kedah

I have been waiting desperately for that thing.. to relieve myself from dreadful reality.. i need a BREAK.. That's the only reason why I'm right here in Langkawi, The Jewel of Kedah not forgetting with a bunch of holiday maniac and Little Ms Shopping..

Day 1
Arrived at the House of 9 at 9.30 am where 12 holiday freaks gathered. We being fetched by three (Fast and Furious) cars to the LCCT Airport due to late arrival. Hahaha overslept I supposed..

On the way to the plane also have to camwhore.. with the beautifully-crafted white plane with a splash of flaming, hot red. Up on the plane.. well, was nervous at first due to my very first experience travelling on the sky. Some friends were busy flashing with their cameras, some reading those boring magazines with a clutter of advertisements, some were fast asleep and some where complaining that the air stewardess doesn't look pretty or gorgeous. They criticise them from head to toe. Well, being judgemental are some friends prior strength... lol






As for me, deep in my thoughts, I was just overwhelmed with the creator of the airplane, gosh can't remember his name.. Wrights something.. How awesome it is to create something so big, accomodating a number of people which can stay put on the sky despite the magnetic, sticky gravity. Gravity a vaccuum suction that sucks you down on the ground.. Suddenly, a mutiple of physics theory just bang my head, and I started counting figures and rationalise the entire concept of the theory.. I shut my brain cells and immediately fall asleep..

We have reached Langkawi airport. Three rented cars with engines on were waiting impatiently for us to ride on. We dashed to the car and into the Sugary Sands .. It's a resort ! It's a hotel! It's a MOTEL.. One must not judge by its cover is proven. The motel looks ancient but the room was not so bad after all. Dump my bag, jump on my bed.. YEAH!!

Speaking of shopping, we REIGN.. from chocolates to beer, from beer to liquor, from liquor to perfume.. Plenty of alcohol consumption.. through drinking and spraying.. Trust me, you havent seen how our divas did their shopping spree...




Colourful and cute little bottles


At 5 pm, we make our feets wet. The yellow sandy beach and the not-so-cystal blue water... I was too exhausted to join my friends modelling and swimming by the beach.. Just took a stroll by the beach with my faithful camera. The scenery of the island was breathless.. The way blue being mixed with green was beautiful, representing land, sky and sea. I took lots of photos btw..

Personalise my name..


Friends Forever!

Breathtaking sunset scenery



The night was still young.. We walked around the town and bought souvenirs. Managed to drop by at another beach by the resort.. It symbolises REdang.. Not fair!! The sands is so much finer than ours. Can't really see the water because it was dark.. No comment..

It was party time... We played true or dare.. Everyone dark secrets and mysteries were finally revealed.. sorry, I'm not sharing.. lol. The ones being forfeited has to gulp down a cup of Johnie Walker Black Label with Sprite. As for me, I just savoured my Vodka with 5% alcohol... for punishment I took a mouthful of the cup.. Apologies for my not-so-good drinking skills.

Life as a Student..

I was overjoyed after internship is over. For once, I can have my life back after the 3-months of sleepless nights and tremendous hard work. No TV, no SLEEP.. the list goes on.

Well, my luck wasn't that good perhaps. I though that life would have been better , as I enrolled to my new semester. I flipped open my white, A4 size timetable with excitement and what I saw was total disaster.. I had four dreaded days of 8am class.. Moans and shrieks was heard echoing across the corridor, for me I was still in shock...

Out of nowhere, my lecturer requested me to present my internship experience to my fellow juniors. Well, I love threatening and warning juniors before the industry shock them to bits. Responsible senior I would say.. Immediately , I agreed.

The event was a grand event with a gargantuan of formal procedures. Talks were given by renowned career enthusiasts from Deloitte, British America Tobacco, Digi and others about the current recession that has been haunting Malaysians with jobs and without.

Here I am, being positioned in the middle number to present. I wish I could just go up to the stage, speak my mind out and finished it before my heart just jumps out from my chest. My fellow presenters before me are super eloquent speakers. They spoked so fast and fluent that can even put the machine gun to shame.

Seriously, the most scariest part was waiting in line for your turn. Wondering why, I'm afraid of the square, still stage..I am a pure drama queen, and have participated state level drama competitions for 2 years yet I chickened out on stage.. As I was half way visualising myself on the stage, the MC introduced me to the audience.. "Opps my turn," I murmured softly in my heart.. That's the moment where all the inspirational songs of worships flow continuously from my very lips.

The feeling of standing on a big stage, with 500 eyes staring at you and a panel of judges with their seriousness on their face judging you was simply indescribable. Well, I tried my very best to communicate to the audience and makes sure that they stay awake, stay alert by blending in some dry humour. Guess that I'm just too passionate about my job as an intern and continue talking non stop. I finished my last word on stage. Dashed down. The satisfaction gained was unexplainable. I did it!
