Last weekend, I spent my weekend in my hometown as my bestest friend, megs made a plan to get back all the way from Naka, Kedah a.k.a Neraka for him (please read his blog to understand this). We both arrived in town around 8-9pm. We planned to meet our best friend, Zeff as we arrived here since he’s so hard to get. Besides he’s going to Perak on the next day. By hook or by crook, I must get him by tonight!!! Otherwise, won’t see him at all.
At last I got the chance to meet my Melbourne buddy, Zeff after he got back to Malaysia in early December at Hayaki Kopitiam. Before this, he was in Kedah mostly since he is half-Kedahan and half-Kelantanese. Anyway, let me give a little bit description about him. He is very nice, helpful and kindhearted. Most important, He has a very close relationship with his family from both sides of parents (auntie2, uncle2, grandpa, and grandma). That makes us so hard to see him since he needs to pay a visit to all his uncles and aunties in all over states in Malaysia. What a huge happy family huh? I do have a big family but I’m not that close as him. Btw Zeff, Thanks for the nice, supercool Ausy T-shirt, I really love it much. Thanks a bunch!!! <@@@@@@@@
I’m not feeling well as I in KayBee, slightly have fever, and cough. I felt quite relieved after having 2 glasses of hot honey lemon beverage at Hayaki kopitiam and attained refreshment after being driving for almost 3 hours. Too bad to my dearest megs, because got infected with fever and most probably by me. Huhu… (nothing I can’t do megs, it all has been noted by the faith)… My remedy is very easy, just get a liter of peel fresh orange juice drink and have enough sleep. I’m sure you’ll get well on the next 2 days time. Insya-Allah.
Hanging out with friends is such a good activity to spend you weekend time. As for me, this weekend was so beautiful to enjoy with my close friends around, megs, thonah, zeff, dhiya (attn: not kak dhiya UDM) and Lamk. Loitering in KB Mall is such a must. And the great delicacy in KB which I always craved on for sure nasi kak wok. The last night in KB we have our supper with the delicious satay on earth at Satay Malaysia…thanks to megs for treated us. I feel so happy to have this kind of life and wish it would never end. What to do, we all have responsibility to do and need to work. ;)

Wonderful Vacation in Kota Kinabalu
This is my PMR essay - trip to Kota Kinabalu!! Hope you enjoy reading and feel our trip... ;)
Oh my God! The time is moving so fast and suddenly it was the day of our vacation to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. Hurrayyy yeye!! This is the time that we are waiting for and now it has arrived. Just imagine, we’ve planned and booked everything, especially airfare, and lodge in last October which is 3 months before. That was a very long time to be waited. We managed to get everything for cheap as we traveled on budget travel where we flew with Air Asia, and stayed only at lodge, not in hotel. Believe it or not our expenses for flight tickets (round trip from KT<>KL<>KK) and accommodation all in all totaled only for RM335!!! What a cheap to run vacation huh? However our trip is such an expensive experience.
The second day in Sabah, we spend our time in Kundasang (high land in Sabah just like Cameron highland), Ranau, and Poring Hot Spring. We drove there with Faisal’s car (thank you pessa) and a rented Kancil. The journey to Kundasang took around 2 and a half hour from KK. We were having a great time enjoying the high climate weather in Kundasang, and soak up our body in hot spring tub at Poring. While I was occupied my time enjoying the hot water, suddenly a person called my name from behind and it was my ex-course mate at UMS, Deborah Nichol Stephen. I was so surprised to meet her again at Poring (Photo). Our journey down to KK was a thrill as the thick fog cover all over the sight in short distance and passed through the snake road down to the cliff. Luckily we are still alive. Thank Allah! ;) The night we had steamboat dinner at Kg. Nelayan Restaurant and eat as much seafood as we want until we drop…Yummy2x…
On the next day we planned to go to Labuan. Apparently the earliest ferry to there is at 8.00 A.M. That was not a problem. The problem arose when we’ve been told that the last ferry back from Labuan to KK is at 1.00 P.M. It took three hours journey by ferry which we gonna spend there only for 2 hours!!! Mana cukup beb!! So we changed our plan to Lok Kawi Wildlife Park (it’s a Zoo) at Lok Kawi (20 minutes drive from KK). We felt so lucky since we came right on time as the animal show just started to begin from 11.15 am to 12.15 p.m.
Sunday Market or Tamu minggu (as the local people call) on the last day is a MUST to visit. Here you may get anything all over Sabah things from pets to souvenirs and some Sarawak stuff such as Kek lapis Sarawak. This market only happens on Sunday along Gaya Street from 6.00 a.m until 1.00 p.m (very long straight street from one end to the other end which make your knee feel like dislodged).
Everybody put huge smiles as we covered most of the place that we’ve planned and bought a lot of souvenir to bring back to peninsular. Matt is the biggest spender and gets a lot of discounts since he is good in bargain. If you are planning to travel somewhere, don’t forget to bring him along and get less pay for your souvenir items. Hehe… ;)
Although I was a student in UMS last 2 years and spend my campus life for 3 years (which covered most of the attraction places in Sabah). This vacation wasn’t the same. I felt like I am a tourist and being a tourist is totally different than tour as a student. Overall, we had a really great moment there and glad to see everyone’s happy. ;)

Loitering at the LCCT while waiting our flight to KK
Our Lodge. So comfort , good hospitality and service. most important, very cheap
Suria Sabah now opened. But still not many shop in there.
At Jesselton Point (the KK Jetty) to Manukan Island.
We’ve been there for 4 days and 3 nights with my UDM click friends, Asma, Fiza, Kak Afna and her husband Abang Zal, Matt, and Fahmi. As we landed in Kota Kinabalu, we check-in at Stay in Lodge and put our bag and directly went to Jesselton Point (the Kota Kinabalu Jetty) to get to Manukan Island (approx. 15 minutes from the jetty). The boat cost for only RM14.50 per head, round trip. The water is so blue from far with the reflection of the sky and crystal clear in near. Snorkeling is the best part activity here. Too bad that the coral lessen as this island has been a tourist spot for years. Yet there are still a lot of colorful fish to be found. There was something missing during leaving the Island, a goggle. Dunno who lost it and at last we got penalty for RM80… sob…sob….TT 
Crystal clear water. So clean!!
At the main entrance of Manukan Island. Need to pay RM3 for entrance fee.
Goggle Squad. Best giler Snorkeling!

I'm NEW!!!
Salam & hello to my dear readers.
Wish you are in the high spirit of new year and Islam.
At last I’ve put my step to the blog world. This is my first time pull up my blogging curtain and for sure I need to learn a lot of things such as add on my blog features with nice template, new gadgets and etc. Hope you guys can drop some suggestion or give some guides. I really dummy in this thingy...haha. I quite envy to see my other friends blog site where they have nice page, smart, full with attraction. I wanna have that kind too. Please help me!!!
Before this, I thought blogging is fussy, wasting time, boring….. But when I read other’s blog especially my dearest friends, Megs, Zeff, Sap, Maria, and not to forget our politician, chedet, drmaza and celebrities such as aznil, I started to build for my own.
To me, blog is a place where you can pour out your ideas freely and share them with others. Yet you will motivate yourself, get inspiration, train your mind to think, improve your language, knowing the latest of people, tell your problem without afraid to anybody because you are in your own world!! And now, blog is an essential thing to me and has become part of my life.
To whom that still dun have a blog. Come and join the blog. It such a great experience to try and definitely would pay off. Seriously!! [Peace V]

My First Post in Lavidazach....
Salam n wish you a very Happy New Year!
Sometimes, because of laziness, tiredness, and bla bla...we fail to make a plan n stick to it. Some said, it just easy, go with the flow jeh... for certain part, i may agree, but in most part, I certainly say NO! I heard 1 phrase, and it goes like this, 'if we just worshiping to time, the time strictly will kill you'. This phrase inspiring me for a change. Change to a better man. Time is about to manage, not to wait and see what will happen next!
To my dear viewers, have you ever knew what you really want in this life??? hope you'll find what you are wishing for and see the you in 10 years time later or maybe 20 years and so on. Planning won't be enough without efforts, determination and perseverance. Hope this New Year 2010 would probably change you for the best and brings you many good things. [Haziq Hamid]
(this post is only to share some ideas in my point of view and doesn't relate to anybody else)
In the name of life, the most great issue that is always being discussed in every people's daily talking. Life is such a beautiful gift from the creator (Allah S.W.T) which brings us to a sophisticated place called a world.
This world is full of unpredictable things which you won't know what the next step you'll be in every single seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, years and even decades. Everything is about planning.
Human has been given a very useful organ, mind which may think the goodness and the adverse of a certain things. If we use the mind in the good way, definitely it will lead us to a right path and so as the other way round. Therefore, human needs to plan in order to determine the correct direction and land to the target destination.
The thing is, does everyone know how to plan??? Planning is not only for a short term like 'I'm going to giant to buy a toothpaste this evening', or 'lets make a plan to eat at mcD'. Well, in this case, I also do the same. Plan for what we can see with our naked eyes. But do we plan for our future??? I mean in the long term.

Time is about to manage, not to wait and see what will happen next!
Anyway, I'm scared of my future. I'm still searching for something although some of my best friend said I've got everything; guaranteed career since I've bonded to IIUM; perfect life (maybe), cars (although ATOS jeh), personality (opps terangkat bakul plek) etc. But there's something that I feel I need to look for...(sigh)... The things mention above don't feel like fulfill my satisfaction at the first place. what am I searching for???? again...*sigh*...
