that short trip

it was at 9.ooam saturday when my dad decided to go back to penang..
since it has been a long time since i last went back to penang.
i was so excited even tho my hand was sore for i donno why.

i packed all my stuffs an waited in the family hall for everyone to get ready.
filled-up my sling bag with my iPod,2 books beloved for contem fic class and also the inspirational book that syaf gave during the futsala nd dinner lepak day..
soon at 12 we were all ready to go.

my dad gave me the keys and told me to drive.
apart of me tot he was joking cos i jokingly said the night before if he is tired to drive im willing to do it for him..
but upon seeing him being selamber getting into the backseat with my mum and my sister came to the front seat i just took a deep breath and atrted the engine and we were on our way.
before heading for the highway we stopped by for petrol and food stuffs!
100plus,chips,coffee and what not.

i was nervous since its the 1st ill be driving on a long distance journey..
still i acted cool.. ignored the pain on my hand
i started going 140 mph and more.

it was fun. sang the whole CD of some random songs.
then we changed to Kenny G latest album..
a whole album of relaxing tunes...

soon it has been 2 hours and i finnaly approached Bukit Gantang R&R..
we stopped for a break, had lunch then it was my turn to relax and my dad drove.
at the back seat i kept myself busy listening to music, reading and sms-ing till i fell asleep.
by the time i got up was a bout after an hour we were already at the port waiting for the ferry.

the best part.
the moment we entered the ferry i was already staring at the sea.
happily dreaming and sms-ing untill my mum came next to me.
and said "carefull with ur phone, unless you want to give it to the jellyfish so they can SOS all they want."
i was wondering why SOS and not SMS.?
nvm, i just continued sms-ing and hold on tight-er to my phone.

soon after we reached the Island!
we drove to Queen Street because my dad wanted to meet his old friend at a jewellry shop but it ended up that he's friends were along the whole street, everywhere he went ppl would come up to him and the next thing you know he is telling me who dat person is..
it cud be his classmate, a neighbour, someone who know's my grandfather, his friend's friend and all sorts of possible links..
i just stood there and smiled.. what else can i do.
i was happy seeing my dad happy.

then after all the "jejak-kasih" we headed to bayan lepas nearby Queensbay Mall to go to my Aunt's place.
had dinner and made plans for the night.
the best part of the whole plan was that everyone slept. and only left me,my dad and abng azrul (mia and aezryl's dad).
then we decided to stay home and watch football (arsenal and fullham)
Arsenal lost. haihyah....

at about 2.00am i went and buy this rice that is know as "nasi dalcha"
for my dad and abng azrul. i had a packet also. but didnt finish..
how la to eat at that hour.?

i tot dat night i cud go see the G-hotel that syaf reviewed in his website. and by chance meet my uncle who works in another hotel nearby the G-hotel. but since everyone slept. all plans were cancled. i was suppose to video call syaf also i cudnt coz everywhere i go around the house i cudnt get the 3g coverage. probably i shud have gone to the beach area. at least there comfirm there will be 3G coverage coz i managed to videocall u when u were there.. very bad maxis service.

that night i sat by the window that was onced a door that leads to the rooftop. a tragedy happened a few years back where i plunged in the roof. freaky experience!
but i laughed and fell asleep.

the next morning i had to go by nasi kandar for breakfast and buy a cat carrier.
apparently my dad fell in love at first sight with dat kitten at my aunts place and wants to bring it back to Subang. i tot it was a crazy thing to do.
what made it crazier was i cudnt find a cat carrier dat my dad decided to just use a box.. i freaked out!

we left my aunts house by noon to head back for subang.
thank god my mum let me take the front seat so she and my sis took the backseat with the kitten.
the whole journey back to subang was fine.
untill the cat poo-poo.!
errrrrghh!!!!!!
goo thing we were approching the R&R so my sister could clean the mess.
and thank god there was no smell!

we proceed our journey and arrived subang at almost 10.00pm
as soon as i arrived i unload all the stuff in to the house.
and also the cat. now named as CHOMBIE since its from penang so my dad tot it shud have a penang traditional name. so there u go chombie.
i tot i cud give it some wacky name like i gave to the 2 other cats i have "pieyouwt" and "touweieng" wacky huh!?

seriously this is like the shortest trip ive ever had!
hope it was longer.
so i can go to many places around the island.
1 nite is never enough!


p/s: here's some pics. not quite some. its like the only pics taken.
till then...






ME.!
