Paradise island - Vol 3

Ola ola im back posting 3rd album of my Perhentian pics.. huhu.. sorry for the delay & the slowness of uploading.. i suppose ive been running up and down alot lately and finally have the time to post a bit (while they're not looking) haha..

Nyways here are some pose shots of us on the day of arrival... we spent our whole day swimming & chilling by the beach and also playing games after dinner. quite the easy laidback style which we all have been dreading for after a KL hectic working life.

Bits about the Paradise Island

After less than an hour on a boat from the east coast of Malaysia, the laid-back atmosphere and the natural beauty of the Perhentian islands immediately transport you to a different world. The white sand is dotted with sun-worshipping holiday makers, some retreating to the shade for a glass of freshly squeezed juice. A group of scuba divers are boarding a boat to venture out into the turquoise waters and submerge themselves in the underwater wonderland. Later, as the sun sets, a quiet buzz of music and chatter fills the air, together with the thin wisp of smoke from the barbeque fire. 
The Perhentian Islands are two islands named Pulau Perhentian Kecil (Small Perhentian Island) andPulau Perhentian Besar (Large Perhentian Island). The Malay name Perhentian is translated as “place to stop” and this is exactly what these two islands were for traders travelling between Malaysia and Bangkok in years gone by. These islands are still a gorgeous place to stop and rest today, albeit for tourists disconnecting from the stress and routine of everyday life and not for weary seafaring traders. 


The islands remain relatively untouched and the only permanent inhabitants live in a small fishing village on Perhentian Kecil. Apart from footpaths that cut through the jungle, there are no roads on the islands. The only way to get around is by walking through the jungle or taking a sea taxi. If you tread carefully, you may even encounter some of the islands’ shy wildlife on the way, such as monitor lizards, fruit bats, squirrels or even the elusive mouse deer. Simple chalets and some moderately luxurious resorts line the picturesque beaches along with restaurants, dive centres and boat operators advertising their services with hand-painted signs.

Perhaps it is the stretches of white beach or the crystal clear water and the superior scuba diving. Perhaps it is the untouched forests or the relaxed atmosphere and unspoiled charm. We like to think that is a little bit of all of this that makes the Perhentian Islands the perfect place to stop and take some time out.


Accomodation

There are plenty of budget and midrange accommodation options on the Perhentian Islands, with one or two more comfortable resorts, but nothing luxurious. During weekends, Malaysian public holidays and the peak season (July-August) prices rise along with demand and it is best to book ahead (where possible – most budget resorts do not accept bookings). 

Perhentian Kecil is more geared towards the budget traveller and the backpacker scene, especially along the idyllic Long Beach (Pasir Panjang). A fifteen minute walk through the jungle takes you toCoral Bay (Teluk Aur), which is smaller and quieter, while also predominantly catering for budget travellers. The other resorts on this island occupy their own private beach coves and are priced in the budget or moderate category. There are also a few uninhabited, secluded beaches scattered around the island. 

Perhentian Besar is the larger of the two islands and resorts here are more geared towards families and also towards scuba divers. The northernmost, nicest bay is called Teluk Pauh and is where you will find the Perhentian Island Resort.  A walkway connects you to the main west coast beachesfacing Perhentian Kecil, each with a cluster of resorts, dive centres and restaurants and separated by rocky headlands. The southern beach, Teluk Dalam has a wide curve of sand, a handful of resorts and is the quietest beach on this island. 

Apart from walking, sea taxis are the only way to get around. Expect to pay RM 10 – 25 per person per trip (5-15 minutes).

Paradise island - Part 2

 Haluu haluu.. here are more shots of our Perhentian Trip... heheh it was a sunny Friday afternoon as we arrived in the beautiful paradise of Pulau Perhentian Kechil. It was quite a breathtaking sight- filled with blue skies, breezy wind, calm waves and gorgeous blue sea... it was a heaven paradise.

 I never realised how lucky we Malaysians to have such a beautiful paradise right under our nose. It was an ultimate getaway for those who seek to runaway from the city life. it was our perfect beach holiday.

From Perhentian with Looove - Part 1

Here's a lil sneek preview of our fabulous Island Paradise trip to Perhentian Island last weekend.. hehe :)

arrived at besut jetty & hungry!

spot the island?

Verify first okeeeeh

Jus got a few confusing links - one says Ikea is currently close for 'samak' procedure.. another says its halal through its spokesperson En. Roslan..

since ikea's meatballs are everyone's fave - i thought id like to share this to the readers out there. At least one blogger took the initiative to inquire about the sijil (despite its unavailability to public's eyes)...

Anyways for whatever it says: only Jakim will have the last say whether its Halal or not. at least one thing we get to find out for good if we can actually eat the meatballs or are they just the same as they are like any other Ikea's the rest of the world.
One thing confuses me though: Why is the sijil Halal not publicly shown? why the discrepancy? what are they hiding? hmmm...... and the questions goes on and on...

Anyways here's Except from http://yanmieonline.com/2011/05/ikea-foodcourt-ikea-meatball-tak-halal/

Almost-present

Sometimes in life we just cant help it wondering the What-Ifs. hehe
i suppose we're all human always thinking about the almost-could-haves, almost this and almost that.
i know it sounds cliche, but truth to be told. everyone of us has a lil bit teeny thought that if only we did this, we did that and we had this and that. ...no.. im not talking about regrets.

Im talking about those once upon a time things we could have had but we chose the otherwise path instead. not that we're not happy where we are. but at some point when we think about that person/ that situation/ the event/ had we made a different decision altogether, had it be a different ending than today?

bicarb soda ON

Hi all, word i got from my sis Alia Salleh (she's a jewellery art student) who confirmed that we should keep BiCarb Soda with us at all times during this crucial times.

At times when the acid is splashed, put on BiCarb Soda immediately on wounded area and then shower whole body then head to doctors straight away.
Only when unsure of the content of the liquid splashed, just shower with water & go to the doctors.

how we got the info? Art/Jewellery students use Bicarb Soda to cleanse out Acid all the time. :)

Baking soda Neutralizes Acid spill

Baking soda neutralizes I-25 acid spill

The semitrailer trucker says she had to brake hard when a car stopped in front of her.

POSTED: 12/04/2010 01:00:00 AM MST

City crews and an environmental contractor successfully contained about 50 gallons of sulfuric acid that spilled onto Interstate 25 before any could leak into the South Platte River, officials said Friday.

Public Works and Environmental Health officials used large amounts of sodium bicarbonate, or baking soda, to neutralize and absorb the sulfuric acid, said Meghan Hughes, spokeswoman for the Department of Environmental Health.

Nancy Duncan, 54, the driver of the Southern Refrigerated Transport semitrailer truck that spilled the acid Thursday night, was not cited for the spill, according to a Denver police record.

Strangely colored animals on Earth

Here are millions of species on our planet and many of them can change their color. Color is the most magnificent visualization of creations in the world. Animals change their color and camouflage themselves in order to fight against the fear, warn predators and catch the eyes of other members in their species. Sometimes, animals change their color due to it mood as well as its heath. Some animals also look very different with strange colors, but because they have to suffer from a surgeon or they are made up by their owners. Let’s have a look at the photos below to see how some animals change their color.

This first orange alligator in the world was discovered by Sylvia Mythen, a 70-year-old woman from Venice, Florida

According to an expert from Florida Fish and Wildlife, the orange color in this alligator might be from some environmental elements.

The body skin color of this lizard is not very different from Spiderman. Males can change their color at night or if they are frightened. They even can run on their hind legs and scale vertical walls like spiders.

These small and colorful sea snails live on soft corals in the Caribbean. This is the only ocean animal that can change its color in fright.

The Mandarin Duck look similar to a colorful bird. It appears with a red bill, large white crescent above the eye and reddish face.

This frog is a neo-tropical toad which is regarded as critically endangered. The species live mostly in Costa Rica and Panama

At first glance, people say that this is a strange animal. However, it is actually a purple polar bear.

 The polar bear named Pelusa at the Mendoza City Zoo in Argentina has purple fur after experiencing a special treatment.

These colorful pigs have been tattooed since the 1990s by Wim Delvoye. A project to tattoo pigs like these was found in the Art Farm in China in the early 21st century.

Pink katydid is mostly live in untropical places such as Osaka and the American Midwest. The genetic condition erythrism is considered as the cause of katydid’s unusual color

This veiled chameleon is found in Yemen and Saudi Arabia. It changes color depending on its mood, heath, and its temperature.

You are definitely wondering if this is a panda or a dog. It is a dog named Colombo. Colombo has appearance like a cuddly endangered Panda Bear because he was made up with puppy safe hair dye

Stop for a second

 I think each of us are born special and unique with our own special ways. What i find strange to most of us is we have to live our life to figure out what was the special abilities we got. And sadly not many of us are born knowing what to do and who we wana be.

I suppose its normal when comes a certain stage in life; we will start our own self-questioning.. such as why are we here? are we happy with life? how satisfied are we with our recent achievements and what are our own personal developments?

Like any others i too have my own set of q's. at times i find myself noticing about others and mind -wandering if life was meant to be the way i wanted. then i come to grip with my own self-realization.

Point is not many of us knew or realize our own self worth. Some of us likes to hide who we really are under a pile of tasks, some keep running and running trying so that we dont get disappointed and some is jumping up high to reach the inevitable. hmm makes me wonder....is it really within us or is it the nature forces surrounding us?

Usually it takes a huge bomb to make us see the real picture. Only with tsunami experiences in our lives we get up and change. Well...most of us hate changes. Cos only when horrible things happen to us; we're obliged to redo ourselves and rethink about our lives.

But how many of us had that chance of realization? How many of us just stood there watching life passes us by? And how many of us have come to the grip of making something different for our own self achievement wall?

Maybe its the coffee talking. hihi. or maybe its the holiday mode in my head kept me wandering. for whatever it is; i learnt to need to figure myself out for my own happiness sake. After all; life is like a cycle. when we're done with one stage; we move to another.

I suppose if you suddenly stop to take a deep breath; pause life for that second and ask these yourself.. "am i doing it right?" ;"is this what i want?" and "am i happy?" 

then only when we know the answers , we can go on knowing what to do, what change to make and what's next on our life agenda. 

amin.

Wajah Baru

Ola ola..yay dah weekend! happy cos Friday the 13th finally over..

not that i percaya cos its so karut but it was seriously a MANIAC friday and all i can say im grateful for things have become and thought me become wiser.

Point is when shit happens, then u begin to see the real truth. the true characters of others and even things about yourself which no one would have the guts to. basically we live in a mirror we created ourselves. in the end its up to us to create whichever image we want to see... its our eyes actually..
