Trip To Pulau Perhentian



Finally, the pictures I've been waiting for so long is in my hand, and finally, I can start to continue on my second blog :) . It wasn't like what I've imagine but I'm glad I went there. We went there from 28 of June until 1st of July. There were 11 of us 4 boys and 7 girls. Among them I only knew Ijoy, Amir and Iera. Since there were 11 of us, Three cars were used for the trip, Iera, Hana and Atun's car. I was deployed in Atun's car, Feel like total stranger in the 1st place but as the journey goes, we started to break the ice. Among the 1st question pop out from these girl (Atun, Fai & Suria) was "do you have a girlfriend? Are you engaged?" I was like what the He**....arghhhh..why start with these kind of question..but only in my heart..outside..I just said Yaa..I have a girl, and no I'm not engaged..then I kept quite. Only afterward they started to ask about the normal stuff...At that point I was relief..and I'm very glad I've made new friends.








We reached Kuala Besut around 9.30 in the morning and I never slept in the car during the journey, probably because all of the girls never slept either. We were told that the boat should pick us up at 10a.m but we have to wait until 11.30. Then finally we reach Perhentian Kecil..Matahari Chalet, when we reach there we have to wait until 3 o'clock before we could get a room which been book a month ago. what kind of booking is this? When people book a room or a place, it should be ready. It just the same as not booking at all. I can describe as the Perhentian trip as "Waiting Trip" everything we must wait, there goes our precious time. The 3 session of snorkeling was nice. But not according to Ijoy. He said Redang's beach and ocean are much nicer. But since this is my 2nd time of snorkeling, I say it was quite enjoyable. The coral and fish fascinated me, and not to forget the turtle, I dived deep to see the turtle up close..but only managed to see not more than 10 second, couldn't hold my breath :P . Every time I dived, it consume a large amount of energy, damn it was tiring, but since the scenery of underwater was so nice, the energy of my body keep generates hahah. But at the end, I always hang on to the boat to catch my breath. One of our tour guide even catches a colorful small fish for us, it just like the finding Nemo fish, he catches 3 of them, and gave it to me to bring to the boat so the rest of the group can see. The girl's even gave the fish a name Neo or something, Atun even kiss the fish before I release them from captivity :D.

Fishes having lunch.



The second day the girls wants to move out to big island, to me , the 1st chalet was much nicer than the second one, but that ain't matter to me anyway, as long as there is a room for me to puts my belonging and sleep, it's good enough for me. For lunch and diner, we must go back to the small island, since the arrangement have been made, we can't change that except only for the chalet. The barbecue was not a barbecue at all,I thought that we need to cook on our own, but everything is cooked already, and all the dishes wasn't that nice either, except for the donut, damn the donut was so good. We had a good laugh when we started mocking iera, she always speak before think, I think Amir was the first one to mocked her...hahaha. When comes to mocking, Amir's is the man, God Of Mocking. It was full moon on that night, Don't know why, everytime I saw a full moon, it fascinates me..hmm...a night to remember.

Again, on our last day, we have to wait. At 1st, we're told the pickup boat will arrive at 9am, but it came around 12 something, Thats why I said that this is a waiting trip. Finally, we reached the mainland (Kuala Besut), bought few souvenir for my office colleagues. We reach Kuala Terengganu around 3 or 2 something. We had lunch at pasar payang, and the girls went for shopping afterwards. I myself bought keropok lekor and serunding daging, ibu love serunding daging, kelantanese called it samba daging :) . By the time the girls finished shopping it was 6 in the evening. we stop at masjid terapung for prayers.






We start to roll out around 6.30pm, I volunteer to drive, I figure we can reached home earlier by doing so, Atun, Fai and Suria started to freak out when I overtake few cars, buses and trucks, sorry girls, didn't mean to freak you guys out but have faith and confident in me next time(If there is a next time..hahaha) I don't know why iera called me a reckless driver, beb..it's not reckless ok, I just drive like I normally do, infact I think I have reserved the way I drive since I'm not driving my own car, and not to forget you also drives fast, but I never label you as reckless driver, some people think you drive faster that's all. To me as long as we know what we are doing and anticipate what going to happen next, we are safe :p





We stop at dungun for diner, the girls want to eat sata, but unfortunately sata is out of stock, i never eat sata in my entire life, wonder how does it taste, or maybe they call it different in my home town...hmm...but anyway I think we roll out from dungun around 9.30pm or something.
We reached KL around 2am in the morning, luckily I was on leave on that day. Picture below is the whole team.


To me, best pics taken goes to this two:

The Perhentian cat :)
