A Day at Cherating, Pahang

This is the first weekend at Kemaman, Terengganu. People at here didnt work on Friday & Saturday. Same goes to Kelantan. So It could be a very boring weekend If you don't have anything to do at here.

Here I go, get the car key & start the journey and today's destination is....

The Turtle Sanctuary, Cherating.

The Journey tooks around 15mins to 20mins from Kemaman. If you are from Kemaman to Kuantan, you will found the Sanctuary Park is somewhere at your Left Side. And the Asia's First Clud Med Cherating, Pahang is located just beside there.

Establish in 1972 as a Turtle protecting center in an effort to protect the endanger species the particular Leatherback Turtle, It was then opened to the public in 1998 as a centre to educate the public about turtles and the need to protect them.

My initial plan was to spend a night at Cherating, so that could observe the Turtle nesting activities. However, was quite disappointed me when the officer told me that turtles will land here to lay eggs between April to August only...Which mean I'm not in the right time to see that..Sien-ness.

 The center is not as big as I thought. In fact, you can finish the visit less than 30mins.

Turtle hatchlings will be kept at here until they are old enough to be released into the sea during night time.

 Besides that, you will be able to see many exotic and nice seashells

as well as others underwater species, such as Dugong 

are displayed at the main exhibition hall.

So next, I'm heading to

The Holiday Villa Beach Resort & Spa, Cherating =)..What a wonderful weekend.

 Well, what I can say is, It looks just 70% or less like what you can see from it website..

Next week, will heading to Rantau Abang...So, stay tunned!

Hai Peng Kopitiam, Kemaman

Surf around the blogs and I found this is one of the Must Go Places at Kemaman =)

Has read from few others blogs and found that most of them were this Kopitiam was normally full during weekend. So to avoid the crowd, I've woke up damn so early today...But, due to my laziness, only manage to get my butt up from the bed and out to breakfast at 9am..=) 

The route to Hai Peng Kopitiam is much more easier for me. Reason is because yesterday, during my way to hunt for Stuffed Crab, I have lost and keeps on round and round and R O U N Dssss at this area for at least 3 times, wtf!

So, here It is...

Kedai Kopi Hai Peng. It's a well know breakfast spot for the locals here and also a Pit Stop for travelers.

This Kopitiam is famous with itVietnamese-style strong coffee. 

 By the time I have reached here, the Kopitiam was fulled already.

Luckily, managed to find a seat for myself. 

As what I read from most of the bloggers, the Must Eat Foods at here are Curry toast, Ice Blended Coffee Breeze, Toasted Buns with kaya,  Kopi Panas, or Kopi-O, Half-boiled Eggs,Nasi Lemak bungkus, Nasi Dagang and bla bla bla...

 But If you are still undecidable, then just order any menu that ended with " Hai Peng"'s name  =)

 So, I ordered  Nasi Dagang. Tried this for the first time..Not bad though. Its boiled fish with rice wrapped with banana leaf and you need to add the Kuah on top of it. 

Ordered Kaya Butter Toast as well. Taste abit too sweet for me. 

Tapai or the Fermented Glutinous Rice. I has been an age I didn't eat this dessert.

But, I thought this is a Non- Halal food. How come It can be found at here while most of the customers are Malay as well..(Not sure if they are Muslim or not la...) Weird eh..Hmmm. Anyway, It taste nice *Thumbs Up*

Boiled Egg. 

And of course, The Kopi C Peng...

Well, perhaps I'm not a coffee expert, so I don't found it's very much special if compare with other brands of coffee. 

Overall, It was not bad. But seems like a bit overrated by the others. Some claims the price at here is a bit expensive but for me, I think It's more or less like at Miri. So, I have spent RM8.50 for what you can see as below. So it is expensive or not? You to rate it. 

Besides that, They also sell some local Kuih- Muih

And as a " Souvenier" from this breakfast, I got the Parking Summon from the District Council for Parking illegally at payable space. Wtf..Didn;t notice there is a Parking Meter at there. No wonder not much cars were parked at there..Shit

The New Journey Begin

After working for 3years and 6months for my previous employer, finally, I have make a move and pursuit my career in  another brand new field.

On 3rd March, I have fly all along the way from Miri to Kemaman, Terengganu to attend a 1 Month Training under the HQ.

Well, training could be fun..I mean If I'm still with my previous company. Because 1 thing for sure, the venue & accommodation will never disappointed me. Just Imagine, staying at 5Stars hotel, conference at 5 Stars hotel, wake up in the morning and enjoying the 5stars international breakfast...And after training  meeting or conferencing or whatever-Ing, soak myself in a bathtub (Well, sometimes no bath tub available), changing clothes and go out for shopping around the hotel.

B U T, If you were assigned to be undergo the training or course or project at here, then please forget about all the 3, 4, or 5 Stars hotel. Most of the people who were here for short term will be arranged to either stay at their company hostel or Homestay. Well, my admin staff was told that I have been given a " Semi D" and i will be staying alone there..Semi D, sound good for me..But when I'm almost fainted to see the so called Semi D..Holy Shit!!! I was a very old kampung house with no fencing at all and hmm...it's looks a little bit dirty for me..(Doesn't mean to be fussy, when I'm staying away from home, I'm very particulars for the washroom condition of the place where I will stay. I don't mind if I'm just here just for 1 or 2 days..but come on, I'm here for 30days or 1 Month!! But I should be thanks to God, at least I got an air con in my room and I'm not been arranged to stay at the oil storage store as claimed by a blogger than has came here for Industrial training before.

This isn't bad enough during the first day I'm here. I've reached Kemaman around 9pm. As I haven't took my dinner, they offered to bring me to the nearby kopitiam. I'm appreciated for their courtesy,but since tomorrow is PH and they are rushing back to home, so I told them, It's find..I can just dapao and eat at hostel later. So, ordered food, pay for it and checked, no plastic spoon provided. Wtf!!! How to eat Mee Goreng Basah with hand? My gosh..so went to the 7-Eleven next door, asked if they did sell any spoon, and sadly, the Cashier said NO..wtf...But to not make my colleagues feel guilty, I tell them It's ok. I will try to use hand to eat but actually I'm starving that night =( Luckily I still have a pcs of Cake that took from the flight just now.

Form the 1st morning I woke up, I cant stop to count down for the days to get back to my home. Keeps blaming why I was placed at here, Why did I make myself suffering by choosing this job? Keeps testing the sweetheart, telling him I can't wait to go back and I don;t think I'll be survived at here. I was cultural shocked!

But minutes after that, I became more calm and I told myself. I should be grateful. We need to have a little bit sacrifices in order to achieve something bigger. This is a test for me, to growth stronger. Perhaps, things is not that bad actually. Most of the time I will be spending at office and working, so perhaps should not care too much about the room condition. After all, God is loves me. He knew I cant survive without aircon and here I go, a Kampung style master room  with Aircon at least..haha. And I have a lot of friendly new colleagues at here =). For my conveniences, the boss even give me a car to ride around. So see, things isn't that worse right?

Anyway, counting down..25days to Go!

"You get rich because you do things most people will not do. Success requires sacrifice. You must be willing to make those sacrifices."-Robert Kiyosaki

I'm In the Middle Of a Crossroad Again

Damn, I don't know if I have made a good decision to leave but I hope I AM!

The road might be very tough for me, but I have no choice to turning back.

I have to be brave not matter what

I have to be strong and fearless

I have to depend on myself

Keep telling myself that this is one of the progress that I have to go through before I could be succeed

Keep telling myself it's time for me to growth and make my life more meaningful

Keep telling myself that no matter what I must NOT to regret and NOT to give up

I need a strength and that's something that only me can convince myself to be stronger

I know I CAN,even I'm actually not,

I MUST to make it CAN!

我， 受伤了

想哭， 可是哭不出来。。
是伤的不够？
还是，
我早已习惯了这种痛？

曾经，你的出现， 让我的生活变得更有冲刺
你教会了我如何规划我的前途
也教会我如何迈向我的"钱途”
你让我习惯了有你牵着我面对我的每一天
你答应我会陪我度过我们一起规划的新开始

這一路 每一步 都走得太辛苦

如今， 你离开了
我，也失去了方向感
我， 要如何面对我们一起计划的每一天？
要如何在没有你牵着我的每一天度过我即将面对的新环境？

你，
选择离开我， 也许是对我负责任的一种吧、

我不再强求你回来
也不会哭闹纠缠了
我答应你，我会放手
好讓你覺得我沒那麼在乎

但，
说好不哭，我却做不到

我承认，
我受伤了
我放不下

你，真的伤的我很痛， 很痛。。。

一个人的旅行

也许会很不错...

就这样，

打了一个人的来回机票...

一个人出发...

一个人到达了目的地...

一个人寻找最美丽的圣诞树...

一个人寻找最酷的雪人..

一个人欣赏圣诞布置

一个人的早餐...

一个人的下午茶...

  

一个人的晚餐...

 一个人等巴士

一个人的路上

一个人听音乐...

 一个人休闲...

一个人看日落

就这样，一个人的完成了这一个"个人之旅"

这旅途，每一步都走得很辛苦

说好不哭， 眼泪却止不住

黎明的到来， 也意味着这个旅途已来到终点...

该回到现实生活, 对自己的前途做个决定

擦干泪水， 重新出发，告诉自己，

我一定会...

更坚强， 

更幸福，

更成功.

一定会.
