Perhentian!

Shortalk: What?! Monday already?!

“It’s been 4 years since I last went to Perhentian and is still as BREATHTAKING – crystal clear water, fine golden sand, sun kissed beached and lots of hot tanned chicks” – ZeekNotGeek

Ok, truth to be told, we never planned for this trip and it came up really last minute over lunch yesterday. Sunday is supposed to be a rest day and the day where I can sleep late and basically rot in my hotel room. Out of sudden, my colleague said, “Let’s go Perhentian” and the rest of us agreed, so Let’s go!

We started off really early today (7:30am) and drove our way to Kuala Besut, Terengganu.

Tips: Pulau Perhentian is accessible via Kuala Besut jetty, which is nearer if you come from Kota Bharu coz the journey only took 1hour plus to reach the jetty, compared to almost 2 – 3 hours drive from Kuala Terengganu. Pulau Redang’s jetty on the other hand is situated smack in the middle of Kuala Terengganu town. So not to be confused!

We bought our return ticket (RM70/person) and board the speedboat. In less than 45 mins ride, we found ourselves at Pulau Perhentian Kecil, a smaller, less crowded island as compared to the more commercialized Pulau Perhentian Besar. According to the tour agent, the beaches here are nicer and cleaner and of course famous for its crystal clear water. There are a few beaches here but for me, the best and the most beautiful has got to be Long Beach.

Since everything was planned last minute, that means we did not pre-booked any tours or day excursion. We were pretty lost at first. Then, one malay guy by the name of Isa approached and told us he can bring and show around the island with a few trip of snorkeling. He has all the gears and charge us RM40/person for a half day tour. I would have to say – Good deal!

We went for 3 dives. Along the tour, he showed us a lot of cool stuffs (eg. all the huge corals and the fishes’ hiding place) 4 hours passed and he dropped us back to Long Beach where we sunbathe and go for a swim. Time flies when you’re having fun, it was time for us to go. Though a short trip and sunburnt all over, one can never complaint a day under the sun and sea!

Monkey Business

Shortalk: Happy Birthday America!

The last few days I’m here has been fun working and meeting very diverse people from the village. People here has simple needs and lead a simple "kampung" life. Kids can run around topless, play under the hot sun and never get sick unlike those in "big cities" where parents tend to be over-protected, never let them go outside. The only thing they play is Wii. haha.

But what fascinates me is not the way they lead their lives, nor chicken running from one corner to the other (Damn annoying, a few times, I tempted to just give the bloody chicken a swift kick in the ass) but the type of pets villagers have here. In the city, you see girls clinging to their poodles, Pomeranians and huskies. Or for someone more adventurous might opt for reptiles like snakes, tortoises or even gecko lizards. But a few houses I’ve visited here has goats, some has owl and the best has to be this….

How about a HORSE as pet??? Damn it. I like it man.

This is En Saman with his pet. He told me his son is a vet who works with wildlife dept and since he has a few horses, he gave one to him. Just like dat! Just like us giving out hamster babies to our friends when the hamster over produce. No licence, no certificate whatsoever needed!

I asked if he has a name and the owner says no. So I say his new name will be Bob. Later did I know that the horse is actually pregnant and she has to change her name from Bob to MileyCyrus. hahaha...

The highlight of the visit is the last house we visited today. The owner has a monkey tied to the tree just outside the house. His name is Jambo. And so we decided to play with Jambo for a while before we leave. As cheeky as other monkey, Jambo is active and mischievous jumping around and doing some somersault to impress us.

With his owner.

I walked closer and he came by “attacking” me. I was shocked at first but the owner said Jambo is playful liddat and has no harm. Won’t scretch or bite. He will come to my shoe and start biting it. Then he will climb up my pants and start to play with the side pockets. And suddenly, my colleague start laughing non stop. I looked down from top and couldn see what actually happened. You know what he did??

He start humping on my leg. God gracious! hahah.

And then went over to my colleague’s and start humping on his leg too. WTF?!

click on thumbnails to see his d*ck. one hell of a horny monkey.

We were laughing non stop as he run from one side to the other humping our leg. Man, Jambo’s really horny man. And we told the owner to get him a girlfriend. He needs to start a family asap.

Now, I just need to check if he cums on my shoe and pants. Yuck!

Back to the eternal sunshine state

Im currently on the road again to the east coast (where else?) for a 2 weeks work assignment.

Please keep me sane coz everything is 20% slower here and im gonna miss Ice Age 3 showing in the cinemas now. There are no f*ckin cinema here. FML.

More stories soon.

An Old Friend

Shortalk: You guys should go to MidValley to see the battle of donuts going on at the basement. Customer is lining up for their Original Glaze at Krispy Kreme, Big Apple is giving free Sugar Glaze donuts and Dunkin’ Donuts is going to (almost) bankrupt. And these 3 shops are located just a mere 20 meter away from each other. Business is tough man.

Yesterday I got the chance to meet up with an old friend. An old friend whom I lost touch since after Form 6 and because of a minor misunderstanding; we did not talked ever since. I blamed myself during that time for not being able to handle the situation well just because I’m childish liddat (to think of it now) and things had been a mess that time. Let bygones be bygones, so don’t asked me what happened then. I thought the meeting will be awkward, weird but it turned out totally unexpected. We talked, we laughed, we cursed just like old times in school, catching up on each others life and bitch about our friends. And that’s when we found out that, basically we don’t keep in touch with others back in Penang! WTF?!

Let me just flashback to schooling years. She’s a unique individual and a great friend. I remembered I went to Form 6 because my parents persuaded me to just go and see if I like it because that time, I’ve already submitted my application to Taylor’s College doing some, well, whatsoever course it was, I don’t give a shit now. On the first day at school, I met her and coincidently her dad is a college lecturer and that’s when she told me not to go to private colleges. Its expensive and will be a burden to my parents since I don’t come from a super rich family. Besides, local university is just as good. I listened and it makes sense, and since I’ve made a few friends from other schools as well, I decided to stay. We sat together with another crazy friend (SY) in class and that’s when mayhem starts. We talked, never pay attention, basically life in our own little fantasy world. We have a dream. We wanted to form a band. Yes. That’s how crazy we were. We pursue our dream the entire 2 years in Form 6 until we flung STPM and then disbanded. Hahahah… Lucky, we got accepted in local university and graduated with honors 3 years down the road. And now, she’s with an oil n gas company and me on the other hand with a company that pays for my short trips to the east coast, here and there. Im not complaining. Praise the LORD!

We went to the same tuition; do a lot of crazy stuffs together, late night drive to Batu Feringghi for pirated DVDs and many more. All these so called “adventures” never failed to carve a smile on my face everytime I think of it. Now, 7 years later, a lot of things happened and we’re living on our own separate lives now with different friends and stories to tell.

This is Michelle.

Partner in crime. With her crazy antics, funny remarks, and a pain in the “rear” attitude.

It has been great catching up with you yesterday and crazy navigating our way to KLPac for Urbanscapes 2009. Let’s do this more often. Who knows, we might revive our childhood dream again and give the Jonas Brothers a run for money!

Urbanscapes 2009

Shortalk: Sun burnt all over. :(

A 12 hour of non stop street performances, outdoor concert, short films, theater, arts and photography at its best. Resident DJ from Zouk was seen spinning their remixes at their booth. Definitely a Mecca for the creative souls out there.

I was here from noon till late evening and had a blast!

n.b: Remember to apply lots of sun block. I did not, that’s why im red as lobster now.

Transformer - What I think?!

Shortalk:

Me and my colleague were on our way to get the tickets and talking about how excited we were on the prospect of seeing Megan Fox in the movie. Then out of a sudden, another blur colleague who know nuts about the movie ask, “ Eh, Megan Fox what colour wan?”. We were dumb folded and burst out laughing like crazy.

Well, we later found out that BumbleBee is yellow, so my colleague thought Megan Fox is also the name of an autobot. WTF?! All sorts of people in the world.

@@@

Everyone in Malaysia is most probably talking about how good and how great and how out of this world Transformer, The revenge of the fallen is. I watched the show last night and thought it was good, not great. Not so great that I have to give a standing ovation to Michael Bay at the end of the 2 and a half hours show. Yes, in part 2 we do see a lot of new autobots and they even have some comedy element into the already intense-robot filled show. I’ll give credits for that. But as usual, I always look out for flaws in a movie and sad to say, instead of going ohh.. ahh… , I ended up laughing at some parts.

The reason why Transformer sees a huge success is because the creator and director of the movie know the audience well or should I say know what a guy wants best. Cars, robots, jet fighter, action packed and hot chicks. And in Transformer, its like watching porn for guys drooling over the machines and the curvy-sexy-mama lead actress.

My rating: 7/10

Instead, I’m more excited over Ice Age 3 as well as G.I Joe coming soon this summer too!

The real photographer goes to..

Shortalk: I know, I know. I’ve been photo-blogging of late. Been busy and lazy all together in one. But stay tuned, Zeek will be back, full force. Soon..

This guy.

From digital SLR to film camera all dangling on his neck.

This is what you call “capturing the moment”, no?
