Kemas-kemas Mainan

Well, sebagai preparasi untuk terbang, salah 'banyak' benda yang perlu diselamatkan ialah koleksi mainan aku yang begitu berharga. Hal ini adalah kerana anak buah dah bertambah jadi 2 orang, jadi segala mainan yang tidak sesuai untuk kanak2 5 tahun perlu disorokkan dengan kemas supaya tidak menjadi mangsa kemalangan yang tidak dapat dielakkan.

Malam tadi kemas2 serba sedikit mainan yang masih belum dikemas. Mula2 susun Transformers dalam almari kaca IKEA empat tingkat. Pastu boleh pulak tak muat.. Ape kes? So yang kecik2 ni simpan dalam bakul empat segi ni jela.. Kecik2 tak payah display pon takpe kot.. Btw, arini nak pergi cari almari lagi untuk disumbatkan dalam bilik aku yang serba kecik. Sebab barang2 aku banyak lagi yang bersepah tiada tempat untuk berteduh.




Inilah hasil penyusunan selama beberapa minit (gambar bawah). Meriah tak mainan aku? Meriah2... Ni pun dah susun atur beberapa kali sebab nak bagi muat dan selit2 mana yang patut. Nasib baiklah robot2 ni pelbagai saiz, kalau semua saiz besar, memang roboh la almari ni sebab berat sangat. Cuba tengok almari kaca ni diselaputi dengan apa? Hahaha, punyalah sayang, harus tutup dengan kain putih berbunga2 supaya kanak2 ribena tak nampak bila lalu kat sebelah almari ni..


Figura2 Final Fantasy ni pun harus disorok dalam kotak. Aritu letak kat tepi tingkap, jatuh ke bawah terus patah tanduk dia.. Kesian dia, tanduk tak cukup sifat. So simpan dalam kotak2 Gundam yang tak pakai. Eh, aku ni memang suka simpan kotak tau, kotak2 Transformers dan Gundam tak pernah buang pun, simpan dalam plastik hitam untuk tujuan rujukan kelak.


Lepas tu, susun dalam kotak besar. Eh, kantoi pulak aku main kad Pokemon. Tu yang paling latest aku beli tau. Berkilat2 lagi kotak dia.. Teringat kecik2 masa darjah 6 main kad Pokemon dalam kelas. Walaupun aku pengawas, tapi lantak apa, bawak jela.. Pastu masa dekat MRSM pulak, makin mencanak2 ramai yang main kad Pokemon. Memang diorang berlumba2 kumpul kad yang rare dan mantap2. Pastu main lawan2 dengan kawan2.. Syok wooo, pastu kat Perlis kad Pokemon dia jual murah sedikit. Kalau harga biasa RM12-13 sepeket, tp kat Perlis RM10 je. Tak ke kau tertarik nak beli?


Dari tingkat atas, aku berlari2 pula ke dapur. Apa aku buat kat dapur? Haaa, itulah yang tak rahsianya.. Kat dapur ada satu lagi almari robot. Sebenarnya almari ni mak aku buat untuk letak2 souvenir, tapi masa baru siap pasang, cepat2 aku taruk robot kat satu compartment. Hahaha, memang anak yang bijak.

Satu tingkat Gundam, satu tingkat Transformers from movies. Yang tak movie punya simpan kat almari IKEA tadi. Gundam aku bukan semuanya ori Bandai, ada jugak jenama made in china. Jenama TT Hongli la, jenama bahasa cina la... Eh, kau diam! Bandai pun made in china ok!


Pastu, inilah koleksi terbaru aku. Plushies Angry Birds yang dibeli dari kedai borong. Murah tau, dapat half price. Kalau kat luar korang beli sebijik RM4.50, kat sini... pandai2 la kira ye.. Sebab nak dapat murah punya pasal, sanggup beli 30 ekor. Tapi 10 ekor dah disedekahkan dekat Angah & Along. Sedekah ke? Padahal Along yang belikan.. Amboi, kalau Along dapat 10 orang adik macam aku, memang sah2 bankrap. Tapi kan, kat kedai tu banyak gila barang2 Angry Birds; ada tabung, bantal, keychain, phonestrap, pencil case, and gantung2 dekat kereta. Kalau dok situ lama, sah2 satu kedai aku borong. Tengah syok2 snap gambar Angry Birds, tiba2 kedengaran suara mistik "bos, tak boleh ambil gambar ye". Teettttt, so dapat snap 2 keping ni je..

say what? say what?


bergambar dengan Imani sebelum keluar mengepau Along..


Sapelah yang merasuk aku dengan semangat Angry Birds ni? Siap ko Lukman!

Kota Kinabalu


This might be my last time travelling with my family before I fly off to Glasgow next month. I don't know what to feel.. sad or happy.. which one suits me better?

This 4-pax family trip happened during Wesak Day holiday for 3 days and 2 nights. Flight used was AirAsia like usual, the cheaper the better. Can spend more on shopping.



Sunday

We departed from LCCT at 7.15 am and arrived at KKIA at about 10.30 am. The flight took about 2 hour and 15 min. We had our breakfast in the flight with our pre-booked meal so that we didn't feel hungry during our trip later. The pancakes were yummylicious and were served with butter and honey. I pau my brother's nasi lemak pak nasser which was delicious like usual. And the good thing was the food portion has increased. Barulah berbaloi2 makan dalam flight..

ronda-ronda bandar KK

We checked-in De Galleria Hotel at Kota Kinabalu and left our luggages in our room before we proceed with the city tour. Basically we just walked around the city, searching for a fine place to lunch. Since it's Sunday, there were a lot of markets in some places. We went to most of the market from wet market to dry market. My mom bought several fish crackers and I bought some fridge magnets as souvenirs. I want to buy Angry Birds t-shirts but the size is small, so not worth it to buy. I want to buy more souvenirs but my budget kept me away from overspend.


melompat dari pasar ke pasar

Then suddenly the rain poured down heavily during our lunch at a local restaurant. For lunch, we tried bakso, fried kuetiau and fried rice.. The portions were extremely huge! It's like eating for 2 person! So after finishing our meal, we headed back to the hotel to rest.

At night, once again we went to a market but this time, it's located at a different place. This one is located nearby the seaside when we could see ships and junks at the seashore. Many teenagers were loitering around this place, hanging out with friends.

pasar oh pasar~

Dinner at a seafood restaurant. The price is quite expensive although the taste is good. We had Szechuan chicken, butter prawn, fish and tofu dishes. Yummy~

sunset
We dropped by several shopping malls nearby to kill some time. We bought a local Sabah chocolate and again, they were quite expensive. We tried the caramel, tenom coffee and peppermint flavour.

Sabah specialities - tea, coffee and chocolate


So that's all for the first day, our activity mainly focussed in the Kota Kinabalu city area itself which consists of markets and shopping malls. My mom said that the malls are all new. When she was in KK 5 years ago, the city was quite empty. It's quite common if you find things at Sabah are more expensive than it's normal price (when compared it to Peninsular's price).



Monday

Today's activity was going to be further away. My dad had booked a car with a driver to bring us to Kinabalu Mountain area, Ranau, Kundasang and Poring Hot Spring. The driver actually is my mom's brother's friend. So it's kinda easy and convenient dealing with him.

We stopped for breakfast somewhere at the start of our journey. I want to try nasi lemak but because I want to preserve my stomach from aching from the sambal, I just ordered kuetiau goreng basah. In your mind, you must be thinking about fried kuetiau with damp gravy but not soupy. Teeetttt! Then you are totally wrong. I was surprised when the kuetiau goreng basah resembled more like kuetiau sup! Damnnn.... Nak kuetiau goreng! bukan kuetiau sup!

We reached Kinabalu Park about 2 hours later because the distance between KK and here is about 120 km. Quite far and therefore requires one day. The entrance fee is RM3. This park is actually the foot of Gunung Kinabalu. If you want to proceed climbing to the top of the montain, silakan.. We just rounded the place by car and took some photos. The condition at the park was cold, humid and soothing. The panorama was also nice with the wild flowers, ferns and chalets. FYI, there's a hostel here as well.


Kinabalu Park

At Kundasang, there's a row of market stalls at the roadside. We stopped by for a while to look around. We bought several more fish crackers and a bottle forest honey.

Kundasang market - sells fruits, salted fish, crackers, honey and kuih-muih.

Few minutes later, we arrived at Poring Hot Spring. The entrance fee is RM3 for adults, RM1 for children and RM1 for senior citizen. This area is divided into several section. There are outdoor bath tubs, indoor bath tubs, sulphur spring, butterfly park, canopy walk and botany garden. We didn't take a bath there, instead we just dipped our feet into the hot spring. Malas nak salin2 baju gitu. Padahal bawak baju 1 beg!


Poring Hot Spring - celup2 kaki

Lunch at Ranau. Sedap jugak lauk kat sini. We ate nasi campur. I enjoyed the fried chicken and eggplant sambal. Sedappppp.... Sometimes, simple dishes are more delicious than others.

We continued our activity to Green Connection Aquarium which is located at KK. We knew this aquarium from a flyer we took from the airport yesterday. It's located near Wisma Wanita at KK. At RM25 entrance fee, visitors can enjoying watching the fishes, snakes, and other small animals such as scorpions and lizards. The coral reef tank contains several types of fish, turtle, and sharks. There's also a freshwater pond. I bought a miniature set of sea animals as souvenir.

At night, we had dinner at a local restaurant which serves goreng2 food. Since the portions are big, it took us some time to finished our meal. The nasi goreng paprik was so heaven with chicken, prawns, cuttlefish and veggies. After that, we did last minute shopping at a night bazaar in front of our hotel. I bought keychains and a t-shirt for myself. Hishhh, tak bestnya takde duit, tak boleh shopping sakan..


Tuesday

Breakfast at McD. Surprise tak? My parents are not fond of fast food but surprisingly my mom requested to have breakfast at McD to tried the hotcakes. I had Sausage McMuffin with egg. Nom.. nom... nom..


Our next destination was Philipine market which sells pearls, crystals and souvenirs. More markets along the way. I bought something and mom bought many things including rice, salted fish, dried shrimps other food ingredients. Banyaknya pasar dekat KK ni.. Murah2 jugak. Meriah2.. And then we also met my uncle, Cik Amin with family who were also jalan2 at KK.

Philipine market

Pearl bracelet - this one is cheap, RM5 only

dried seahorse.. anyone?

borong beras - macam2 jenis beras ada dijual; beras bario, beras merah, beras biasa, beras pulut, beras bukit dan lain2..


After lunch, we proceed to KKIA for our flight back to KL.

bye-bye KK

Eh, kejap je kan holiday kali ni.. Rasa macam banyak lagi tempat yang perlu diteroka. Takpe, next time nak pegi dgn kawan pulak. Baru boleh buat aktiviti mencabar. =)

Let's Make Visa

Visa Application @Wisma MCA

UK Visa application wasn't a simple thing to make as compared to other country's visas. Starting from filling the forms and preparing the related documents weren't easy as it seems. We need to be accurate and precise about the information needed.

After making an appointment with VFS Global, we all went to Wisma MCA separately and met at Ampang Park LRT Station which is situated 5-min walk from the Wisma MCA. VFS Global is located on the 19th floor of the building and the elevator is quite impressive. It moves so fast not like the elevator in Vista Komanwel which is lembab nak mampus. The process may took 20-45 min for each person and just imagined how long we had to wait there. It's killing my time. First, we will be called by the officer at the counter to submit the forms and then went into a small room to do biometric data collection. They took our fingerprints, photos and asked some questions about ourselves just to confirm our ID. Not forget, the visa fee is RM1301 which is quite expensive!

For now, let's pray that no one will face problem about the visa. Mudah2an Allah akan permudahkan segala urusan berkaitan visa dan kelancaran penerbangan kami nanti, inshaAllah..

After all people had finished their visa application, all of us gather at KLCC for the next activity. It's very near, we just walked from Wisma MCA to KLCC and it took about 10 minutes. During the way, we met Chua Soi Lek walking on the pedestrian walk. Kan Cipak kan? Sampai Cipak tak perasan pun dia lalu sebelah siapa... Tengok Anis, aku sebut Chua Soi Lek, dia dengar Chan Sow Lin.. Meriah2... Fariz pulak jalan menonong je ke depan dengan Kak Long. Pantas bagai halilintar.



KLCC

We didn't really have plan here. So we just randomly walked here and did window shopping while surveying for cheap luggage. We did found the one we desired at Isetan. I hope the sale will last longer because I'm planning to buy it later. Who don't want to buy a Polo or Pierre Cardin luggage for under RM200?? It's cheap okay! Some girls did buy something for the fly-off preparation. However, Wanji and Duwe were nowhere to be seen because both of them were watching Fast & Furious 5 at the TGV cinema.

semua tangan kosong


We were supposed to celebrate Kak Long's birthday since today was here birthday but looked like no one want to plan it. So we just walk again... and walk.. and walk... until Wanji and Duwe finished their movie. So I asked them to buy a cake and met up at the food court.

Azery joined us after he finished his work at Petrosains. Kau memang gigih kumpul duit kan, tapi every week ada je plan kau berjimba2. So, mana duit2 itu pergi? =p.. We celebrated Kak Long plus Wanji's birthday simply delicious *ayat apa nih? tak paham okay!*. The strawberry yogurt cake didn't really taste like cake but more to ice-cream only it wasn't cold. Thanks to the boys who bought the cake. Nice choice! Memang sedap Azery melantak kek tu kan.

tak cukup 3 orang

jurukamera terhandal tp kerja kat petrosains.. fevret baju --> milo

Since I didn't bring my camera with me, so there were less photos during the outing. We only depended on Kak Long's camera for today. Ooo, Kak Long dah prepare kamera siap2 sebab dah expect kitorang nak celebrated besday ko kan??? Too bad, Mirah, Bee and Aleen already went back earlier so they couldn't join us during the celebration.

Hurmmm, memang tak best keluar berjimba2 tanpa fund yang mencukupi. Yela, dari rumah bawak RM50 je, then balik rumah dalam wallet tinggal RM4 je.. Nasib baik ada touch n go. Kalau tak, terpaksa jual diri sebab tak dapat tampung tambang balik ke Shah Alam..

=p


2 Days Ago.....

5-Birthdays with Cuppies
