Oh Angin...

something has really caught my mind just now when i sat
at the window near to my bed.
tonight it is a full moon. what a view! well consider im lucky because im still able
to enjoy the view of a moon at night and it is a full moon.
its a windy night precisely.
to GOD, im thanking you for what im able to have right now.
im thanking you GOD for the food that im able to eat, for the peace that im able to enjoy,
for the friends that are always there for me, for the family that always
shows their love towards me.

Consider Im lucky!
hell yeah! why should not i?
compare to many people out there who is not having this kind of
pleasure to enjoy. a poor kid and baby in palestin who is now being bombed by
that damned israelis who violates and did not respect
the rules in war.

well im no one to say much about this. just pray and hope that things will turns out
in a better way. Hoping for the rise in ummah yet im kind of naive to believe it.
Fact is a fact.
Nothing can changed it. But by GOD's will.
The problem is, many people claims that they are Islamic follower yet, are they
a muslim that really holds their virtues and what they believe?
think about it for second.
yeah. many of you will questioned me back by provoking am i too good or am i
pious enough to say thing like this?
but that is the truth. we are not able to change it untill
we are not afraid to sacrifice the things that really precious to us.
our brother and sister are killed each second and what are we doing? sleeping in a good
condition under the blanket. in a good air conditioning system.

just forget about it.
like what we know,
"kalau mula bercerita, memang lebat dentam
dentum kalah orang yang sibuk debat harga minyak"
"tapi apa ada? habuk pon tarak la ni."

action speaks louder than words!
not
words speak louder than action.

what ever it is, i think im gonna post something really exciting.
how does the wind occurs~
yeah! been thinking about it.
later on i might update on how the wind occurs and the process is.
kindda interested in it.
if anyone knows, please, please and please tell me! :D

warms regards

vulnerable

when u tried ur best.. but u dont succeed,
when u get what u want, but its not what u need..
-coldplay - fixed you-

well, there's nothing that i can say much about it.
i bet that most of u guys really know and understand on how does it feels when things are not going
according to what we planned right?
sometimes, what we aimed is far beyond the bull's eyes.
what can i say about it?

NOTHING!

nothing came into my mind on how to express this kind of feeling. worst come to worst, we
just have to absorb it.

SMILE LIKE YOU MEAN it.

yeah! just smile and accept it as what it is. set the new target. do not be over confident when
dealing with it. just give your best shot towards it.

what ever it is, only this one thing that can make me move forward and
be motivated

SABAR DAN IKHLAS.

:)


WARMS REGARDS~

Hello guys! i'm back! back to the track for keeping u guys updated with
my journey! And oh well! yeah! forgot to say the most important thing!
Happy New Year! Happy 2009! and the most important part of it! For those
who are celebrating their wonderful birthday along this day, happy birthday
and may god bless u and may u succeeded in what ever u're working with! :D

As what i've promised to u guys before, it is the time when i'll update
u guys with budget trip to langkawi island~ yeah, dont get too excited ya! :P

okay! from Kuala Lumpur, there are basically four ways on getting to
Langkawi island from Kuala Lumpur.

  • Bus
  • Aeroplane
  • Car
  • Train
-BUS-


There are two station that u are able to purchase ticket if you want to go by bus. First is the Hentian Puduraya and second one is Hentian Duta. The bus ticket is fixed RM 43.00 for a single trip. But if u purchase the ticket from the both station i've mentioned, it is only for a single trip from both station to Kuala Perlis bus station. Don't worry because when u arrived at the station of Kuala Perlis, u can still be able to purchase the ticket for heading back to KL at the same price.
Most common buses that have a trip to Kuala Perlis station is MARA LINER, Transnasional and Etika Delta company. the journey is approximately 7 - 8 Hours. But they do stop at 2 places along the way for having a break and for the toilet session. :D

-AEROPLANE-
from Kuala Lumpur international airport, or from the low cost carrier terminal (LCCT), air asia and malaysian airlines provides u a flight twice a day to the airport of langkawi island if i'm not mistaken. the fares for the journey u are able to check with their websites since the price is not fixed due to the early booking and may changes without prior noticed. For more info, u can google it and check it for yourself. here are a few link that will direct u straight for the booking flight ticket.

-CAR-
From kuala Lumpur, just take any exit at PLUS highway and headed straight north to Kuala Perlis. The signboard will always be useful along the way. for ticket price, i'm sorry because i'm not so sure about it. The journey is approximately around 6 or 7 hours depending on your speed. if you're speeding at 160Km/h, then the time estimated will be less than the time that i've mentioned.

-TRAIN-
From Kuala Lumpur, the price for a single ticket is RM 21.00 for economy class. The journey is 14 hours from Kuala Lumpur to Arau station which is the station that is near to Kuala Perlis jetty. The view is quite magnificent and for the best time to take the train is departured at night. U'll find it amazing and relaxing because the view at night is fantastic! :) from the arau station, u can take a taxi that will charge u RM 24 to the jetty of Kuala Perlis. but be smart and car pool with a few people to pay less. the journey from Arau station to jetty of Kuala Perlis is 20 minutes. for more info on the ticket price and booking, feel free to view this website,

-Ferry-
The ticket for a single trip to Pulau Langkawi is RM18.00. the ticket only can be purchased at the ticket counter at the jetty itself. there are quite few ferry services provider and what ever it is, never buy it from people who are selling the ticket without going to the counter. What i mean is that u might be cheated for the ferry ticket. Buy it straight from the counter itself.



Okay! done with the transportation on getting to Langkawi island. next let's move on to the accommodation thing! I prefer to stay in Pantai Chenang or Pantai Tengah since both of this place is quite strategic to the sea and as well as to the night life compare to other places and Kuah town. Disadvantages of staying at Kuah town is that, around 10 p.m the shops are closed and the town is like dead and becoming like a cowboy town compare to this two place. Besides, this two places is quite easy for a tourist who go to langkawi to get food and the price is quite the same as in Kuala Lumpur. One of the best restaurant in Pantai Chenang is Kedai Haji Ramli where they serve local food but with a great and delicious taste. the price is affordable and not expensive at all.

This time i went to langkawi with my utpian-mates, we stayed at Charlie's motel. the rates for the room is RM 85 for one night. but they provides two queen's bed, 24-hour air conditioner, TV, and as well toilet inside of the room. so, for a room, 4 people can be put and the amount of payment to be made can be reduced to RM 20 per person for a night. we went there and book 2 rooms for 2 nights. but hey! since yana and her brother came along, we split the ratio of 8 person to 2-6 for both room. guess what, we still can fit all in for the 6 person sharing one room! just imagine how big is their bed! :D *i'm a bit impressed when i thinked of it*

Well, here are the links that will direct and give you a few places on a budget motel that you are able to get in Langkawi island.

Bills for staying 2 nights at Charlies motel.

Charlie's Motel, Pantai Tengah

The car rental for 3 days and 2 nights that we stayed in Langkawi is only RM 320! Want to know what kind of car that we rented? Definetly not a van! hell no to Van! We managed to get a Toyota Innova for 2 days and the payment is only RM 320! Just imagine the space and comfortable of the car and it suits 8 person compare to a van. Besides, the performance of the Innova is better than any cheap Van that will cost us more than we are able to pay~. For more information on getting the car, u can deal with this person :

  • Faisal : 012-5752665


Second day at pulau langkawi, we just chilling around and tour the island! Stop for a lunch and had Laksa Langkawi (Which is extremely delicious) near the Kampung Beras Terbakar and after that we went to Tanjung Rhu to drink Coconut and just stay near to the beach and had Pisang Goreng. The view was beautiful and the sea breeze was cool thou. Then we headed to Pantai Pasir Hitam to see ourselves the black sand. If u learn Geology 101, then u will know why the sand is black compare to other sands since the mineral content is consists of what mineral and the colour of the mineral itself. After the trip to black sand beach, we headed back to our motel because all of us wanted to swim at the sea.

Sharp at 7.30, we headed to Medan Nelayan Ikan bakar at Bukit Malut to enjoy seafood! The price was unbelieveable! It was cheap! For 8 persons having 6 fishes (siakap sweet sour-2, siakap bakar-2, pari-2), prawns (butter prawns), vegetable (kailan ikan masin), a jug of orange juice and squid (udang goreng tepung), and Kerang bakar, it only cost us RM 250! the food was delicious!

Then the third day was the day that we have to leave langkawi island since most of us wanted to celebrate New year in Kuala Lumpur. So we check out from the hotel at 11 a.m and headed to Kuah town to buy some sourveniours and chocolates for our family members. At 2 p.m we departed from Kuah jetty to Kuala Perlis jetty. Our bus was at 3.45 so we did not want to be late. but guess what!! the bus was late by an hour and half! ended up.. we celebrate New year by the coolest event of all which is inside the bus! Hahaha sorry guys! I've tried my best~ hahaha but surely it will be an event that we will never forget! celebrate new year inside bus! hahah cool right??!! hahahah

If u guys have anything to ask regarding the trip to langkawi, just drop me a comment and i'll reach back to u as soon as possible~
