Memories of Sitiawan Trip [ tinesh's idea ]

30th Dec o8 - 1st Jan 09

Finally , we ( BBF ) had our first trip after 3 years . since we were 16 , we have been planing to travel here and there but everything just don't seem to work out due to various reasons . [ even our Teluk Gong plan haven't jadi until now ] . haha . anyway that's the past and we are looking forward for more trips after our first was so happening .


back to the trip . I forgot how we figured out the trip . the initial plan was actually to Port Dickson but somehow Ting found out that his cousin has an apartment in Teluk Batik , Perak . and from there , after the approval of his cousin , we work it out from it . accommodation , transport , and people [ as usual , it's always hard to get the 9 of us together but we got 7 out of 9 , so that's good enough ] . and everything was going smoothly . 3 days from 30th of December [ this is the first time we celebrate New Year together in 7 and somewhere far from the city . different way of celebration this year ] .

7 of us were
[ Ting , Steph , Saara , Lan , Tinesh , Sarah , and I ]

Day 1

We all met up at Tinesh's place at 10-ish and get our stuff loaded and headed to PJ to get Sarah . and our journey begun . Saara was the driver and I was his so called assistant . and together we made a silly mistake [ we did not follow the GPS that time since Saara said he knew the way ] . we missed the Bidor exit which leads us to go to Ipoh [ longer way but we finally fulfilled one of our old plans ] .
after a long exhausting journey , we finally reached Ting's cousin's place to get the apartment keys and we had a late lunch in Kampung Cina . a seafood restaurant that was only available at that moment . then we went to stock up snacks and drinks and off we head to the apartment . and here we are Marina Cove Resort . with 3 well-kept rooms , balcony facing the sea , we really felt so much at home . after settling down , the guys went down for beach soccer while the girls just sat there chatting and watching us play . then all of us got together playing volleyball and captain ball .
around 7-ish , Saara was so tempted to try the hotel's water theme park and so we all headed for some splash . slides , water polo , volleyball were awesome . [ the water was dirty though but screw it-lar ] . we played till the place closed at 9 and we went up to clean up for dinner .
dinner was at the apartment's cafe . food was not bad . but we had to wait almost an hour for the food . damn kns service . Saara was so pissed .
back to the apartment after dinner , we had charades and a few new games and the night ended with Twister . haha . headed to bed at 5am . [ sorry Saara for waking you up ]




Day 2

Woke up at 10 . the 3 guys had a dota game before all of us headed to the main beach in Teluk Batik . we intended to ride on the banana boat but we postponed it to the evening and eventually to the next day . we chilled and sat by the beach with ice-creams [ cones cost us rm3 each . wtf ] and we built sandcastles .
then , we left for lunch , back to Kampung Cina for Restaurant Ah Pek Lee Kou which was closed yesterday . without proper planning and due to hunger , we had ordered 10 dishes and 3 big bowls of rice . [ it was like we didn't eat anything for a week ] haha . and so we paid the price [ double the price of yesterday's restaurant ] but still darn cheap compared to other places .
after that fulfilling meals , we headed to ' The Store ' to stock up our snacks and drinks for the night . and there was a guy who kept staring at Sarah and smiling at her . what a freak .
back to the apartment , the guys played a dota game again while the girls played Metal Slug on psp . after one of the laptop had a problem , we eventually stopped and went down for beach soccer again [ an addiction to us guys . haha ] while they girls continued their Metal Slug . then , all of us played 'Monkey' till sunset as the end of outdoor activities for that day .
we then went up to get ready for dinner . had some cam whore sessions though . dinner was at at a 'Ikan Bakar' restaurant facing the sea nearby the apartment . the fishes were good but the dishes were disappointing and in small portions .
after dinner , we rushed to a church nearby the town as Sarah wanted to attend a countdown service . and thank god , she came out at 11.30 enough time for us to rush back to the apartment for countdown for the fireworks as well [ we had the most perfect view , right in front of us ] fireworks were not so grand like the usual ones , but after all , as I said , a different celebration this year , filled with the company of best friends on a trip . AWESOME .
after wishing and hugging everyone , we got into cam whore sessions with all kinds of poses we managed to do [ could not be shown all , too many ]

one of the family pictures taken

after almost an hour of cam whoring , we retired from it and settled down for games . Circle of death was the first thing followed by Fuzzy Duck thingy . [ this got us laughing till our stomach cramped ] . most of them went to bed before 5 am . except for Ting , Steph [ they planned to stay up till sunrise ] and I but I couldn't take it and dozed off at 7 am .

Day 3

it was a 3 hours of sleep for me . woke up , we had Maggi for breakfast before heading to the beach again for banana boat . the price was seriously cheap till we rode twice [ they gave us discount some more for the 2nd ride . haha ] . and the salty sea water splashed and irritated our eyes throughout the ride . and I was the at the front of the banana . damn kns . had to keep rubbing and closing my eyes . [ sore feeling ] but we had so much fun . while drying up , some of us ran around flying kites and I got buried in the sand ! [ no pictures were taken ] and they were jumping on me after that and my 'little banana' [ haha ] got sort of 'crushed' when Ting put a full force step into the sand right onto it . *ouch* .
we got back to apartment to wash up and pack our luggage and of cos clean up the apartment . time to leave this wonderful oasis . *sigh* .
we left around 2-ish and had lunch in KFC in the town . headed to Ting's cousin's place again to return the keys and there was it . time to head a long journey back home . bringing back our luggage and the wonderful and unforgettable moments we had together . I will never forget what we have gone through .
