Deliciously Me
Putting the 'licious' in everything
Archive for the ‘events’ Category
I actually plan on waking up late and enjoy my Sunday with my two dogs if not for an email from Criz on Saturday reminding me on the CSL 3S Centre Opening event.
Instantly I called up Satkuru asking him if he really put my name in the list and he said yeah! Told you already mah. I groaned a little.
Oh well, another Sunday filled with activity then. 
So on Sunday morning, I woke up at 9.30 to get ready and at 10.15, Satkuru rang my door bell which triggered endless barking from Husky and Miilo. Haha.
We reached Megamall Pinang (which I fondly call it Pacific) and were wondering where is Life One Cafe as we were told to assemble there. Just as we walked towards the front entrance, we saw a long queue and lots men in blue!
As it was still early and there weren’t much shoppers in the mall yet except for those who queued to buy CSL gadgets in dirt cheap price and the CSL employees in blue, which explains why I said there’s lots men in blue. Haha!
Weeks prior to Chinese New Year, there was a grand pre-CNY celebration at the 9th Emporer temple at Raja Uda. Since we were quite free that day, we decided to drop by. However, we went quite late, at about 8 something.
… and I forgot my DSLR. Resorted to take photos using my iPhone only. -.-”
It was so crowded there especially at the entrance since there was only one way in and out. The other entrance was blocked by the temporary stage, hence the terrible human traffic. I felt so uncomfortable when someone’s sweaty, sticky skin rubbed against mine. Luckily the jam was temporary only.
On the stage, local singers entertained all with countless of Chinese New Year songs. I took a glance to see who was singing at that moment (but I don’t know him! ops..) and walked faster to catch up with my parents.
Around the temple were stalls which mostly showcased the Chinese art and culture or things that related to Chinese culture.
Juanita…
*BIG Yawn*
Cambodia post should be up next week, hopefully. Still in the initial phase of pictures editing. Blame on lack of time to edit. Hehe!
Today I shall talk bout Skytrex!
Skytrex Adventure, located in Taman Pertanian Malaysia Bukit Cahaya Seri Alam in Shah Alam, offers an outdoor recreational activity that makes everyone’s heart pumps faster and proves that Charles Darwin’s theory is true!
Lol!
If you’re wondering what nonsense I’m talking about, you’ll know why later. Those who went before will understand gua.
Months ago, (really really MONTHS ago), Satkuru, William and I decided to give a go after hearing/reading about it from Sat’s friend, David who happens to be a volunteer there.
We drove all the way there on a sunny afternoon. After reaching, Satkuru gave his name at the counter and three of us were ‘chauffered’ on a bus to the heart of the reserved forest.
After 20 minutes of bumpy bus ride, the sight of net, ropes and planks greeted us.
We walked towards a small hut where we registered and signed an indemnity form. Then we kept our bags in their locker, got our harness and gloves and walked toward the training site where we’ll be given a short briefing and tried all the obstacles on a smaller scale.
Because there’s a group of people at the ‘training site’, we explored the ‘Little Adventure’ course which caters the kids and took few pictures of the area.
YES, ALL OF US TOOK OUR DSLR THERE! HAHAHAHA!
So damn heavy, but luckily not I carried. Hahaha!
The group took such a longgggg time at the training site that we waited almost an hour there!
@.@
And then it was our turn. It was SOOOOO FUNNNNN! Especially the flying fox. However climbing the net after the flying fox was abit hard for me. I’m not a monkey ler!
Once finished all the obstacles in the training ground, we started our real stinct! Yeah!
In order to clear the whole course, we had to move from tree to tree via few routes suspended from 3m to 22m above ground. These courses totally test our strength, conquer our fear and push our ability to the max!
First, we had to climb a ladder mounted to very long tree! All the way UP to the first platform. It may look easy, but seriously after halfway thru, you’ll feel like giving up. T.T
Then it was the part where I love! The hanging bridge! 
How I wished I can took my own sweet time walking through the bridge.
But I CANT since there’s freaking someone yelling CEPAT CEPAT. ZZzzzz… Potong stim.
And then the real deal came. Walking through the zig-zag planks, ‘hopping’ the 2 ft apart planks, walking through swinging logs, flying fox – total of 23 obstacles that will definitely put your body to extreme pains for days. Unless you got a good stamina ler. Hahaha!
However, if you’re the ‘chicken’ type of person or realise that you unable to overcome your fear, there’s always a exit point for you to cabut. Haha.
We finished the whole course at around 4 something, if not mistaken. It rained soooo heavily after that. IT was really blast, but it WOULD be better if we weren’t rush to finish up the whole thing faster due to the weather la. zzz.
Conclusion, SkyTrex is indeed MUST-TRY activity if you’re the adventurous seeker. If you’re not, you can still try it – for fun. Lol!
P/s – Didn’t take much picture as my dslr is carried by Sat while doing the challenges and Satkuru stopped talking pictures after being rushed and I didn’t get pictures from William.
Probably I should go back there – or go to Perhentian. I want island vacation. Deprieved of one. T.T
Anyway, now back to my Redang post part II – let us see more pictures of Redang. Maybe seeing them back could make you guys feel like going there again with me ler. *shifty look*
Ops. Wrong picture. Haha. That’s Daniel pointing to Shoutout logo drawn by Lasker. Well, they’re trying to promote Shoutout there – but they didn’t leave behind the url, how can people join wor. Hmm.
Anyway, today I shall bring you to another part of the island. 
From our resort, we walked towards nearly end of the beach, past a 100m of lalang field, balanced ourselves for a stretch of uneven stone-y and dead corals bay, climbed up few big stones, skipped to avoid a small river of waste water while pinching our nose and finally another 100m of tar road to reach this popular beach – the Long Beach. (If not mistaken, ppl called that Long Beach lar. Lmao)
It was definitely worth going all those to reach here since it was more happening here, especially night time. Probably because few popular resorts are located here, like the Laguna Redang Resort.
Plus the colourful iconic house, More More Tea Inn – popularised by the movie Summer Holiday, is situated here too. Well, the More More Tea Inn is not an inn, but a two storey gift shop.
and not forgetting the most-photographed-thing-in-Redang, the headless woodboard. Lol!
Not enough for all the guys I guess. They had to take turns. Lol!
It was fun hanging out there. You can just wear your sunnies and just observing people like what Wendy did.
Or just snipe at pretty bikini girl.. *phew-witttt*
or jump around with a bunch of crazy people like what they did here. Lol!
Or just soaked ur feets onto the cold sand.
(Argh! All those really made me miss my island vacation alot! T.T )
We made several trips back and fro between our resort and Long Beach. We even went at night! But that was only once, and we spotted a rather reddish moon. Or was it purplish? I can’t remember. Lol!
Our vacation was so freaking relaxing (goodness, the hammock lying thingy was so blardy nice! – i forgot to add in earlier) that almost everyone was so reluctant to head home. We went for 4 days 3 nights; a day longer than my previous Redang trip, but it was nicer! The last time I went, I didn’t have enough of Redang and therefore I decided to go back there again in 2008. But now, I guess I shall put Redang aside and start looking for the possible islands to go. Like Perhentian, Phi Phi, Phuket or even Krabi. Hehehe!
