Sabah Trip 2011 (1st - 3rd May)

Ok.. now where do I start? I am suppose to write about this long time ago.. But since I only manage to upload those piccas yesterday from Mr Waled's camera.. and the server here in P11 is ok and no more chipsmore.. so I decided to write about this tough it's a bit late.

My family and I (Mr. Waled, Aqil and Amsyar) and my in law's went to KK for a 3D2N vacation. It was all fine and smooth trip that everyone of us was enjoying the vacation so much.

Day 1

• Arrived KKIA around 12pm and went direct to Promenade Hotel
• Have Mc Donalds for lunch (what's new eh?)
• Check-in around 4pm because the Hotel were fully booked and the management was out of control..
• After sola asr cum zuhr, walked to philipino market. (My Family took a cab and it costs us RM10!!)
• Had dinner in Philipino Market which I think was a waste.. because my bro in-law paid RM200++ for this kind of food..

Do you think it's worth the money??

Day 2

• Went out as early as 9am for City Tour (We really did a lot of shopping hence everyone is super tired)
• We had dinner in Kg Nelayan which hubby had spent RM700 for luxury and delicious food (no piccas as the delegations are super exhausted and hungry).




This is at Bukit Bendera.. yess Sabah also has it's own Bukit Bendera like Penang minus the cable car.

 Day 3

• Had a swim at hotel's pool
• Pack-pack, off we go..
• Drop by here.. 

  

  For some frozen seafood to bring home..
  
   

                                                              

All in all.. we were satisfy and happy with the trip as our money has gone just like the water flow in the drain.. :)

MATTA Fair

This post is a reeeeaaalll delaaay post.. Thought of putting up those pics.. but naaaahhh.. got no time to upload the pics.. My time are precious nowadays..

Last Saturday  On 12 March 2011, my husband and I decided to have an eye on MATTA Fair (MF) which was happening from 11-13 March 2011. My last time to MF was like 7-8 years ago when I was under my practical-training back then in WDT. That time I don't have any intention to travel, I was there for duty.. WDT had a booth there (I think so). We decided not to drive to PWTC, co-incidently Mr. Walid's friend had a business in KL and wanted Mr Walid to come along. So Mr. Walid went to KL accompanied by Aqil. Whilst I took ERL to KL Sentral cause I got to settle a few of home affairs before I got-off to the hassle-bustle city and leave little Amsyar at home with bibik. (I hate to do this :()

We arrived MF half past five and got two tickets (RM3/adult) and Mr. Walid went to perform Asr prayers. After he's done, we started the exploration. Never I thought it can be that huge.. We were inside the first hall (Cuti2 Malaysia) at 6.15pm and end up there until 9.30pm. Our main objective to MF is to look for accommodation and packages in Sabah. Since we've bought the tickets from red and white company (quite cheap though; unless for the kid's fare is equivalent to the adult's fare.. I thinks it's really tricky.. LOL!)

To cut it short, we managed to find the suitable ones. We took Promenade Hotel incl breakfast and return airport transfer (RM190/pax x 2 days). I think it's reasonable enough though after a stroll to all a few booths that offer KK packages.

Part of that we also received free 2D1N voucher stay in Sunway Hotel, George Town. There was a Sunway Property booth that provided chairs to be seated. We have no intention to step in the booth but just dropping by to have a seat and decided to flip through all the flyers we've collected to make up our mind on the package we were about to choose. Suddenly there's a man came after us asking if he could take a few minutes from us to tell about their travelling membership card. We couldn't just say 'no' as we were at their 'territory' so we just nodded our head and listened to him. He said that after we listened to his promotion then we will be winning "lucky draw".. I dont really mind that, but since we were still exhaust to walk away so we just stayed and listened to him. First, one Indian young man came to me and asked me to write up our details, than came other Malay man to talk about what they offer and the benefits we'll be getting.. since it's already time for Maghrib prayers we asked the Malay man if we could just stop and wanted to know how much we would have to pay (that's all matters right). Huh.. I am tired of typing pheeww.. So he called out another lady (the manager) to talk about the pricing.. (wallah).. and do you know how much it costs to join in the membership? The premium one was like RM12,000++ for 30 years.. and the normal one was like RM6,000++ for 30 years. And I  immediately say NO!!.. even if we have money, we are not going to waste that amount of money for uncertainties.. unless Mr Walid is a millionaire now. So we decided to make a move until the manager asked us to pick the lucky draw and Mr Walid has picked Free 2D1N stay in Sunway Hotel, George Town.. Yeay!! (I have missed Penang since we went there in 2007 and it was free as well.. Gheeeeee :))

Despite all the tests from Allah, Allah also bestowe us with other 'rizq'. Alhamdulillah. After done with our travel matters, we were hooked up at the

digital fair. Which was downstairs and on our way to walk to the station. We caught this.. and it cost us RM369. So it's Mr Walid's task to print out all the must-print photos. :)

Pheww.. we end up to reached home by 12.15am after the train rides all the way from PWTC hop-in for inter change at Bandar Tasik Selatan for ERL. A tiring evening but with  full of satisfaction. :)

I Am So Not In The Mood

As the title.. I am loosing the enthusiasm of blogging.. I couldn't help it.. It's the first day of working.. and I'm having the blues.. might because of the cold I had.. or the dissatisfaction to somebody that I had trouble with.. It mixed all well.. that making my day is a HELL!!

I was on leave yesterday.. spent my day with cleaning my 'house to be'.. settled just not everything just because I don't know what to do what first.. There are just so many teeny-weeny thingy to be done.. and I am not the oriented-type of person which is my husband's nightmare.. LOL!

Last Saturday, I woke up as early as 5.30am for attending the so-called Diabetes Walk.. well it is my second attempt in this activity.. My first attempt was Walk For Hunger on 29 October 2010.. that's not so much thing to talk about the walk on Saturday.. I was enjoying the walk by busying chit-chatting with my lovely friends Eny, Didi and Shahnaz.. and other KKLW runners too..

 Part of us.. they are a few more KKLWians.
