Inspirational quote
"I may still not know what I want to be when I grow up, but I do know that someday I want to live in a house filled with my books and travel souvenirs. And the walls that aren’t covered in bookshelves will be covered with photos of my family and friends. When I leave the house I will be going to a job I love, and I’ll return to a person I love. So, that’s the dream I’m working on."

Pangkor trip ♥
Pangkor island trip. It's not only a vacation, but the people.
it took us 5 hours to reach KL and another 5 hours to reach Pangkor T_T but it's worth the time. Poker cards and music players have once again became the source of entertainment during the ride. We did nothing much on the first day in KL, as we reached in late evening. the highlight of the day was the horror movie they watch entitled "coming soon", which turned out to be a comedy of the night:
the subtitle "Hello" in Thai language was translated to "喂" in mandarin which then translated to "FEED" in english HAHAH and "bye" in Thai was translated to "拜拜" in mandarin which then translated to "RELIGIOUS FESTIVAL" in english. OWNNNEEDD xD
the second day we reached pangkor late. so nothing much except beer, wine and poker cards. Oh, not to forget, soccer ball! we played "monkey" in our apartment using our feet. Everybody got high OLE-ING the monkey. Hoewei-> normal level. Mark lee the short-> advance level. xD Tall Liangyi with long legs -> tutorial. xDxD (insider joke). At night we threw mark into the pool :D:D:D. of course before doing so we managed to scam his wallet and hp out from him. it's a very high night. shall remember this day.
third day in pangkor was when everything got started. after having breakfast at a roadside noodle stall, which had big business upon our arrival, we boarded a boat to the other islands. First stop was snorkeling :D wah with a few bits of bread we lured a huge swam of pretty and colourful fishes to us. too bad we had no water-proof camera. haha dogs fights under the water was inevitable. the victim would have his bottoms pulled out o.o! the next stop we played beach soccer. the sweeping waves kept flushing our ball and that put our ball-controlling skills to test (: later on we played "monkey" in the sea, which put good swimmers in advantage, while noob swimmers drink saltwater...Captain ball was another fun game played in the sea. When the sun was in the middle, we had bbq seafood for lunch. imba nice. sand ball fight was another breath-taking one. and some jokers buried the soccer ball in the shore and pleaded God for a soccer ball to drop from the sky, which happened to pop up from the ground as the waves kept sweeping the sand-.-
back to the main island we played water polo in the pool for hours. then had street soccer game at the court. I wondered how much energy did we spare. we cycled round the island after the game and visited a Dutch Fort. Half way through the island i randomly spotted an atm machine from Maybank o.O which saved me from bankruptcy.
On the way back, suddenly i felt something small fell on my head and without thinking i pressed the brake. Too fast, and it was the front brake o.O! GG. I flied. I rolled. More than 360 degrees. But I survived =/ shed quite some blood. shaun and derek pulled back and helped. They din have tissue, but derek offered me his clean underwear-.- thanks la but i don want to make yours bloody :P
the very last day of pangkor, the early birds biked to the same noodles stall for breakfast and attempted to go to the Dutch fort again but failed due to short of time. We stopped by a beach and tok cok took photos. at noon it was another long ride back to KL. it was too rush to go back to jaybee so the johorians decided to put up another night in kx house. KL drivers are really fierce. haha. any car can just cut your lane without a signal. So pay attention to the road =O As expected, when kx car overtook liangyi's, middle fingers started firing up and front lights began flashing. and one car sticked very close to another. fetched by them was like watching a thriller bleh x.x
morning we played ROCK BAND :D damn fun laa and it was my first time playing. Derek owned everyone with his ROCK GUITAR skill. WII rocks!
back home. life is an adventure <3
