One fine morning, my uncle asked me : "You have something to ask me last night?" and I replied to him that I dont' remember asking him anything. But he told me that I pester him, showing and pointing my palm to him "What is This?".
This incident happen after everyone have gone to bed, I guess it is during the middle of the night. Seriously I don't remember anything, and I don't remember asking him any questions. So, I asked him what exactly did I asked. He was not sure what I wanted to ask, as I kept showing and pointing to my palm. It was then that I realise I sleep walk that night. This incident happened when I'm still a kid attending primary school.
So you think this happen only once? Nope, I had it the second time. On the second time I sleep walk, I didn't prompt any questions to anyone. Again, it happen when I was in primary school. It was in the morning that I heard the news from my mum. She told me why are you hugging the carpet so tightly in the middle of the night?
Back then, I don't have any clues why I am doing it. why I hugged a smelly carpet where everyone's foot had actually stepped over it. It is my worst nightmare to actually hugged a carpet. *Gosh!
Now recently, I remember that after I went to bed. The phone rang in the living room. The ringing of the phone is irritating, so usually I will pick up the phone so that I can go back to my bed peacefully. I know I was very sleepy that night, so I decided to go and pick up the call. I was semi-concious as I know what I am going to do next. But the shocking things that I did was not picking up the phone, I actually went to the switch in my bedroom and trying to turn it off as I thought I am turning off the phone.
I kept switching the switch on and off, on and off, and I wonder why the phone still keeps ringing. After a while, the phone stop ringing and then finally I can go back to sleep. The next morning, my mum asked me why am I playing with the switch last night. Well, I told her that the phone keeps ringing and it is irritating. Then she told me she is the one who picks up the phone.
Don't ask me why I am playing with the switch, I certainly has no idea why I am doing it. But I did remember that I want to stop the phone from ringing, and I also remember that I DID touch the switch as if I want to off the phone from ringing. -__- It seems like the switch has become the phone, did I sleep walk again? I not too sure.

Remember what our parents used to tell us when we were young? The chewing gum cannot be swallowed, and it will turn out real bad if you ever swallowed one.
I remember during my primary school days, I like to chew chewing gum. This is because we kids like to compete with one another on whoever can blow the biggest bubble, and it does keep us busy.
One evening after my dinner, i pop one chewing gum into my mouth. I used to be very talkative - though now i not sure if i still am, have to inteview my friend if i'm still am. *chuckle*
So~ I chew and chew while I chat with my mum. I guess i chat too happily, so I took a Deep breath ready for the next line of my conversation and this is how things happen. I ACCIDENTALLY swollow the chewing gum.
Frantically I rush to my mum, telling her that i swallowed the gum. Well, she seems really calm and peaceful about it. I wonder if she really care about me. -_-!! At that time, I think i am going to be dead. The gum is going to be stuck in my stomach for the rest of my life, and there is nothing I can do about it!!
Anyway, nothing happens to me, so I guess it alright if you swallow a gum - provided you are lucky that it didn't stuck at your throat.

Every morning we always have heavy breakfast, most of the time we were eating "Kam Puan". It is a noodle similar to "Wan Tan Mee" we usually ate. Almost eating it everyday, the only difference is we always ate at different stall.






I also visit Pangkor Island where we have to ride a yatch at the Lumut dock. In order to snorkel, we need to rent a speed boat over to another very small piece of land near Pangkor Island. The boat rent is RM10 and the snorkel equipment only cost around RM5. It is very cheap. But, the water is not very clear. It is rather hard to see the fishes unless they are very close to you. The fishes here eats alot, many of them are rather chubby~ HaHa!!! After our snorkelling trip, we rent a Jet Ski which cost RM60 for 20 minutes. It was my first time playing a jet ski and I must say that if there are no wave or either the jet is not moving at full speed, it no fun at all. Of course, safety comes first. Whatever you do is at your own risk.






On christmas eve, I stayed at Marina Cove Resort. They actually put fireworks and everyone came out to their balcony and greet "Merry Christmas" to their neighbour. Of course, I'm busy taking photos. Haha!!! My cousins actually shouted across to say "Merry Christmas" -_-!!!

My favourite roti prata stall is here. It is built on a swampy area. This photo is taken during low tide.

As I was taking pictures around and also my family who were enjoying the pratas here. The guy who flip the roti prata specially request me to help him take his picture as he demonstrate his very skillful roti prata flipping. The people here were friendly and prata uncle here is very skillful. Prata uncle flip until very big and the prata didn't even tear. The prata he made were delicious!! I even request him to flip another one as I didn't really have my camera settings set correctly. Everything is fast and I didn't really capture a very nice and stunning action.

Ah Ha! This is my favourite Kopi Cham Teh!! As you can see, the lighter tone of the drink is set at the lower half of the glass, this is the tea. And the darker tone at the top is the coffee. Move your straw and you can taste 2 different drinks at the same time. Stir it and you get your Kopi Cham. Isn't it Marvellous? The guy who made the drink is also very skillful, of cos it not our prata uncle who make this drink. He's busy flipping the pratas, remember?? Hehe!!

At Kampong Acheh, you can also prepare your tools and pail to dug the soil. You'll be able to find lots of clams, lala, earth worm, crabs and many more. The previous time when I go, there are many, this year we changed spot and we came back empty handed. This time we didn't wear our slipper and the feeling of your feet sink into the mud and feeling the 'THINGS' beneath you is something I am not able to describe. It was HOLY DISGUSTING!!! I can even smell the stink of drain and waste as I walk.

The mud is not very solid, every step you take, half of your legs actually sink and you have to keep walking before you sink more deeper. See the result of my leg?? This is call mud spa, I think it quite popular in japan. Well, you can do it at sitiawan and it Free of Charge!!

What you can do in Lumut is trekking~~ The hill is 331.4m and I can say that I'm very pathetic in this sport. The slopes were quite steep and they don't have steps for you to climb up like what we have in singapore's Bukit Timah hill. For places where the slopes are steeper, there is ropes tied nicely at the bark of trees and trekkers can pull the ropes so that it is easier to climb up. The entrance is free and there are no medical help or station.



only know that I am trekking a 331.4m hill. The rest I don't understand. Any volunteers to help me do the translation? Haha!!!




Before reaching the tip of the hill, there is one open area which I called the "cliff". There are no boundaries to prevent trekkers from falling. To climb this hill, trekkers have to take note that whatever you do are at your own risk. We can actually see the landmarks of Lumut in Perak. When you look down, everything is tiny, especially the vehicles. I don't think I am able to see any human walking at that height I am standing.




I was exhausted and pathetic after my whole journey of trekking for 1 hour. I'm the last one to reach the top, and also the last one to reach the bottom. Worst still, I got cuts on my hands and legs. Well.., compared to my little cousins and my mum, I'm the most pathetic feller. *Sobbie*

Everyone laughed at me >.< and reprimand me that being an adult, I'm so useless. This was my 3rd time trekking and it is also my first that I managed to climb to the top. Previously I always climb one third of it and gave up. This time I wanted to give up as I was really very exhausted, somehow I just slow down my pace and rest most of the time as I trek every step. Eventually, I managed to trek to the top. Nothing special at the top, just some communication station.

A must visit in Perak is the Pasir Panjang Segari beach. This beach is preserved to protect the green turtles. It is rather hard to reach the beach, it took a lot of effort to locate the location as you tend to pass by many farms.

When you face the sea, you don't see any small islands at the other end. They are just big vast of sea. The beach is white and sandy, that is why this is a very nice place for the turtles to lay their eggs.

After the eggs are hatched, the little turtles are kept in a small pool. This is to make sure that as the turtles grows bigger, they will be able to protect themselves after they are released into the dangerous sea.

In the musem, it display the shells of the turtles.

I think this is the place where the people kept the eggs. They probably carry the eggs from the beach and place them in a safe area so that newly hatched turtles are safe from birds.

Went back for a week on these christmas to visit my grandparents and also to take a break off from work. My grandparents house were base in Kampong Koh in Sitiawan. In front of the house, there is a big field shared among many neighbour. These are some of the pictures I took during the evening of my spared time.
