Sunway Lagoon (Part 1)

A worthwhile trip.

I first did my bungee jump on August 25th 2016. Enough said. It was a wonderful experience to be honest.

I really don't know how to start this but I'm just going to write everything that I did on that day. I walked to the LRT Station Wangsa Maju at 8.00 am and you guys should really know this: Don't ever start your journey at the same time people are going to work oh lord.

I only managed to get on the train at 9.00 am something because wow the train was packed with humans. I was so stressed out but anyhow after having to stand in the squished train for about half an hour as it tooks more than 10 stations before I reached KL Sentral to meet Fatinah, I survived.

We did a short catching up session, gosh I was happy to see familiar face after spending so much time in the office. After that we took the KTM and we stop at Setia Jaya Station (cost RM2.30 per trip). We were supposed to take the BRT at platform 2 after that (cost RM2.30 per trip straight to Sunway Pyramid Mall) but we missed the signage and we end up walking for hundred meters to cross the road and everything. We decided to grab a taxi before we sesat lagi and we reached the Sunway Pyramid main entrance around 11.30 am (cab fare cost us RM4.00).

From Sunway Mall, we have to walk a little bit and went down two levels to reached  the main entrance to Sunway Lagoon. We redeemed our ticket at the counter and voila we're in Sunway freakin Lagoon!

Okay I think that's good for now, until next time, bye :)

Hero

Gold.

It must have been a roller coaster of emotions for us Malaysian these past few days. I woke up feeling solemn this morning and nothing, not a thing I do can make the feeling go away. It is not because I feel disappointed or anything, I just feel,.. sad.

To be honest, after the game last night, I cried, like a baby. I don't why but I just feel sorry for our hero, Datuk Lee Chong Wei. No one would ever understand how he felt at that time I bet, no one. His face said it all. How much he wanted to hold that Gold before taking his bow from Olympics. Shit, now I am crying.

I grew up watching his game, his name and Lin Dan was a familiar name to me as badminton was the only sport I can play during my school time. I am not very sporty but badminton hold a significant part in my life.

We probably get over this after few days or maybe after few weeks, but him? W never know. The way he said sorry during the interview last night broke my heart, I cried right away. He really wants that gold, for us Malaysians and for him too.

I just want to say that you did you very best and you don't have to be sorry about it, we know. We know.

Yes, we did send our thanks, comforting words and more through social media and everything. People around him also, must have been comforting him but, the fact that I can somehow feel how he much he wants it and nothing, nothing probably can help him forget this moment, make me feel useless as a fellow Malaysian. We all want to make him feel better, but to be honest, we all know we can't.

I just hope he knows that he make us proud and that is enough for us. Thank you. Thank you for all of your hard work.

Excited

Doing it.

Guess what? I'm going to Sunway Lagoon! We bought the promotional ticket Buy 1 Free 1 so I am going with one of my friend. Thank god I have someone to enjoy the day with. Can't wait to explore Sunway Lagoon. My main focus would be the bungee jumping and of course the Screampark. We'll see how scary the haunted house is *evil laugh*.

Nah, just kidding, I'll probably faint out in there to be honest because I'm such a scaredy-cat. But, I'm gonna try everything, gonna make this trip worthwhile. May Allah ease our journey later.

Later. Bye.

Thursday 11 August 2016

Soon

Nike. Just do it.

I think I'm just gonna do it. The hell with money. Can always find more later. But,.. hmm.
Yeah, it is just a matter of time. Tapi,.. alahai.

If I don't do this now, I don't think I'll be able to do anything after this. This is a very important step for me. To get out from my comfort zone, to do things that I love.

Aja-aja hwaiting!

Rejected

Still no news on the bungee thing.

Never mind, I'm used to getting rejected. Been experiencing this "rejected" thingy since high school. I'd once gave my crush a present for his birthday only to be returned to me at the end of the day. I went home crying that day. So pathetic.

It is true what people said. Less expectation, less hurtful it will be. Not hoping too much on this, but worry not, I,m gonna keep on praying because I'm not a quitter. I'm going to make this thing happen! I promise myself.

One more thing, if there is anyone out there is reading my blog, did my style of writing changed?

How to sound more mature in my writing, I wonder. Do I have to write something serious or maybe present only about facts and things like that?

Life Bungee

I did something crazy today.

OMG OMG OMG! I just don't think anymore. Actually I've been dreaming about doing bungee jumping in Macau which is one of the tallest bungee jumping spot in the world. I thought there is none in Malaysia but when I googled, there is freakin one spot in Sunway Lagoon for god sake.

I did some research about it. I googled about the reviews from people who had already try it out and of course the price and everything. Only to a disappointment, it is too expensive for me. I mean, I can pay the price for the bungee jumping but to pay the entrance fee to Sunway Lagoon separately, kills me. If I want to try it out, I would have to pay a total of RM130 and above. Moreover, I don't have any transportation, thus the public transport fee to be added to that. Argh!

I've been thinking about it for few days, when suddenly the inner child in me said to just go for it. I emailed Sunway management asking whether I can do the bungee jumping without having to pay for the entrance fee. They must think I'm crazy, pathetic or something and they might not even read it but I just don't care anymore. I just want to do it. I have had enough with myself saying wanting to do this, to do that, but nothing happen. So, I emailed them.

I have many dreams and I want to make it come true no matter what happen. I just want to make my life extraordinary, for once, well at least for me. People can laugh about it and maybe the bungee in Sunway is not that high but it surely feels that, if this happen, many more adventure will awaits for me in the future. I am just a kid with dreams, yeah 22 year old kid. I don't care. I emailed them.

Not putting too much hope on this but still, please Allah, make this happen for me.

*update: Man, I just checked the page, it is actually RM120 per adult for entrance fee, hmm k

I'm bored. I'm hungry. I'm confused. I'm pathetic. I'm stressed out. I'm alone. I'm dead.

Zootopia

Hi!

Zootopia. I guess imagination really have no limits. I love Zootopia. I never thought I would like another animation movie after Frozen, I was wrong! At first, I could not really understand the craze with Zootopia when it was out in the cinema. I was just like, nah, another animation movie. But, my fellow friends was like suggesting and promoting and keep on asking me to watch it. Now, here I am, with no expectation on the movie, watched it and it completely blew up my mind. Maybe it is just me but who cares, it makes me feel like a child again.

Not to mention, the cinematography was awesome. The details they made for every characters. The fur, the horns, the eyes, everything, they were so careful about every little things. I like it when they take into consideration for each characters/animals in the movie. Like, in Zootopia they have a lift, special for small mouse, the train which have three different sizes of door for the animals and more. I really do not know how to explain it, you need to watch it yourself. It was brilliant and creative.

The story line was good. It was about a small bunny which have a big dream to be a police officer in Zootopia, a dream city. It was something that people think would be impossible with her small physics and everything. Yet, there she is, joining the police academy and managed to become Officer Hopps. But, only to be given a job as 'meter maid'. There was a big case where 14 mammals have missing and Hopps have a deal with his boss to find one of it with her career on the stake.

She got help from a sly fox she met, Nick and from there their adventure begins. Then there were chases, hiding out, running away from the bad guy and everything and they managed to capture the villain. It seems like there is going to be a love line between Nick and Officer Hopps but, they are two different kind of animals so I think that would be impossible. But, I'm liking how their friendship developed though. Nick was cool, smart and very sneaky.

Anyhow, what I learnt from this movie is that to never give up. When people say no, you say yes. It is your dream so just go for it no matter how impossible it might be to you or even to anyone else. Hopps really show us great courage, determination and passion in this movie that we can learn from. One more thing, we cannot simply judge a book by its cover. We need to change that stereotype of seeing a sheep as nice and kind while fox is the bad guy. It does not always work that way. People are people. Stop putting labels and treat each other kindly.

I would give this movie 7 for its valuable lesson, good story line and splendid cinematography.

That is all for today. Good night.

Salam.

p/s: you should try to listen to the song by Shakira (Gazelle) entitled Try Everything, it can motivate you when you feel like giving up

Crazy, Stupid, Love

Love, love, love all the way.

Today I watched Crazy, Stupid Love. I do not know why, but I just love this kind of movie. I guess I am just that kind of person, hopeless romantic they say. Hahaha. Now let's get to the comment, I mean what I feel about the movie, shall we?

It tells a story about some guy named Cal Weaver which was having some problem with his wife. The world went chaotic for him when his wife asked for a divorce. We can totally see from the movie that they were clearly still love each other but somehow, it does not seem to be working out for them. Something is wrong.

But, then there was Ryan Gosling came rolling, God he was so perfect in that suit, I wish I could hug him demmit. It starts then, when Jacob played by Ryan tried to change Cal to be a better man. We often see in a movie where the girl went through a huge transformation and everything. However, in this movie, we get to see a midlle aged man that had given up on life get a freakin' transformation, so, to me, it is kinda fresh and new. Jacob and Cal is a funny combination. I laugh a lot, and enjoying their shopping, picking up girl in a bar scene.

So, here we have a brand new Cal Weaver and he is enjoying his new life, going out with different women only to realized that it is not it. He terribly missed his wife. He tried to call Jacob to talk about it but, Jacob is nowhere to be found. Guess where he is. Yeah, with Hannah, a girl that she met in a bar, which he tried his pickup lines and everything but it doesn't work.

We got another love story going on here. Jacob, a playboy or I don't know, a Casanova, trying his best to get this girl which he felt like, the one. The  girl was playing hard to get but, one day decided to come to the guy after she was turned down by his colleague that she thought was going to propose to her. So, they somehow get together and become a couple.

Now, let's get back to Cal. He actually prepared a surprise for his wife with the help of his children at their house with the intention of getting back together. Here come the plot twist. On the day of the event everyone get together and it turns out Hannah is Cal's daughter. So, imagine Cal's face when Hannah brought back Jacob and introduced him as her boyfriend.

There is more about the movie actually and you should watch it yourself. It is very light and easy to follow as the story line is not that confusing.To conclude it is another romantic comedy movie and it talks about love, family and to not give up. What I learn about Cal and his wife is that people often take for granted what they have and realized that they cannot live without it until they lost it. And Jacob and Hannah, had taught me that people can change and love can change people, yeah.

The rating hmm I would give 6.8. :)

That's all for now. Bye

Salam.

Love, Actually..

Movie day again.

Hi there!

Just finished watching Love, Actually, actually. Might as well write some reviews about the film. I am so not in the place to critic a film though but just sharing my thoughts on the film.

Loving comedy, romantic kinda movie since I was in high school so I was expecting more actually from the movie. I have watched many of these kind, trust me. So, back on the film. I like it, but not to the point that I can say that I love it. All couples have their own level of hmm how do I put this into words ya, I mean their own lovely feeling.

It managed to make go rolling on the bed because it was so chessy, cute and freakin' lovely. Hahaha, yes I was talking about Joanna and ya know that little boy from Hunger Games, ugh he is so cute. Their young, pure love make me screamed a little bit when it comes to their scene. I love them.

The Prime Minister, ah I never knew that Natalie would be the kind of girl that he would like so kinda surprising twist we had there. Seriously I never thought, she would be the one, considering on their first meeting. But, they were cute though. The scene where the Prime Minister went house by house to find his Natalie just heartwarming and sweet.

The Portuguese lady and the writer man made me confused when it comes to their part to be honest because I do not know what the lady was saying the whole time because she speaks fully Portuguese and there was no subtitle provided, so I'm quite confused and frustrated. However, the end story for them couple, good.

And the inappropriate couple oh God, I guess love is blind, love can be weird and it can comes in all forms at anytime in anyplace. It is so ridiculous and I am so not suggesting this film to kids but happy for them though. Smh.

Last but not least, I rather not talk about this last couple because if I did, I won't probably be stopping anytime soon. Not totally blaming the man but totally hating his secretary. Poor lady, I mean his wife, have to stay strong despite the affair that was going on. I wish I can hug her and tell her that everything would be just fine and be strong. If I can just tell her to punch her husband in the face and kick him right in the nuts yeah. That would be good too. But, I don't know, they have kids. I guess they still have something or reasons to make the relationship going.

I would give 5,2 for the rating. Just to be clear, my rating, my own and personal thought on the film. :)

I guess that is all. Bye.

Salam.

Lazy

Thesis. No start. I'm dead.

Hmm, allahu, allahu, allahu. How to be rajin hah? I need to start working on my thesis like freakin' RIGHT NOW for god sake! Too lazy to do so. I need something to push me but what? I don't even have a specific title yet. I am so dead.

I need to be able to know what am I going to research about and only then I can pick my supervisor. But, no title, no supervisor lah of course. Dah la tak banyak lecturer yang available untuk jadi supervisor, considering the number of other students lagi who will be taking their thesis subject with me. Can I quit? No, no, no. I can't talk shit like this.

I am just gonna chill for a few days then I will think about this again.

Au revoir~

Lovely

Raya celebration!

So, how was your Raya this year? Good? I hope everything went well for all of you.

As for me, it was better than I expected. Alhamdulillah. The people, the food, the ambience, the house and everything were great. Although, there was some major breakdown half through Raya, but I managed to get over it, luckily.Got two theme this year as I have two family. It was dark blue with my father and purple with my mother. Both are lovely.

Only bought one black and plain jubah and I just simply changed my tudung to match with the theme. It was less but I feel more. I do not know how to explain it but I feel more if you know what I meant.

I have regrets. Too many actually. Sometimes I just wish that I can turn back time and change the way I act, or the things I say. I want to live differently. But then again, does changes always meant to be a good thing?

Anyway, Selamat Hari Raya to those who are celebrating. Taqabalallahu minna wa minkum.

Salam.

p/s: can't wait for Ramadhan next year

Promise

People and their bullshits.

Okay, I guess people would leave anyway even though they promise they would be there whenever we need them. At the end of the day, you just have to be strong, keep your head held high and keep moving on on your own. It is you against the world, always.

Need to learn not to be too dependent on others, not to have expectations, so that I would hurt less. Sometimes you just know when people do not like you. You just notice all those little hints or gestures that show that they are avoiding you. The way they respond to your messages, the time they take to reply to your WhatsApp messages and more. You just know, because you are not that stupid.
I am not that stupid.

Sleepy

Hi! How you guys have been?
Me? Nope, not doing so well lately. I'm scared. Terrified to be honest and I don't exactly know why. Help me. Help.

Nak mengadu, tak tahu nakmengadu kat sapa. Letih, sangat letih. Rasa nak jerit mintak tolong, tapi sapa ja nak dengaq. Nak buat macam mana ni?

I feel sleepy like all time. Whenever I feel sad or stressed out, I automatically feel sleepy and nowadays I sleep so frequent I lost track of time. I only woke up to pray and mandi then I sleep again. I don't want to be that kind of person. I wanna be happy.

Let me be happy, Allah. For once, let me be.

Choices

Hi!
This is getting weird. So not myself to be updating my blog few times in one week. Usually it is once per year. But, whatever, just need some place to rant. Twitter is no longer fun, It limits the things that I can say as too many people were thinking that the tweets were for them gosh and it only allows 140 characters so it is not enough pfft. My tweets can be random and unpredictable sometimes so let me be.

Anyway, I am getting negative nowadays to the point I am scared of myself. I am not me anymore. I am terrified actually. But, I can't really ignore it though. My mind is in a mess right now. Can't help but thinking about it all the time. To go home or not to go home. Things will be so awkward, which house should I go first? I hate this. Please don't let me choose. Can I just run away from all these. Can I?

I know this time will come. The moment when I realized things would not be the same anymore. Ever. I am scared.

Salam.

Oppa San

Hi! Surprise to see me?

Anyway, had a blast with my brother two days ago. He asked me to accompany him to the hospital to see his patient. Initially hesitated to say yes because I was having mild fever but I followed anyway.

But, to my surprise, after waiting for few hours in the waiting room in the hospital, he told me that we're going to the mall for Raya shopping after he finished with his works, wehoo! The trip to the mall was hella fun and I managed to get two new pants, two new kicks and one shirt. Life is good, life is good~

After that, we went to the spa(?), I don't really know how to describe the place, but we went for a massage session and yeah, I feel healthier. It was almost time for buka puasa but unfortunately we could not find any place, every restaurants were fully reserved so what do we do was that we bought juice and also some jagung in a cup and we sat at the chair near the toilet omg we were so pathetic. We were laughing and giggling because we found that situation so funny the whole time we sat there. After Maghrib prayer, we managed to get seated in one of the restaurants and after dinner we went home.

It was a simple, unplanned yet a fun day, to be able to talk in the car with him, making jokes and everything. He is going to get married soon hmm. Feel like I am losing one of my bestfriends tho. Hmm..

p/s: new blog address-- strugglingdaisy.blogspot.com, yeah I know, I need not your opinion on this, thank you

Hello

Stiff.

Hmm, this is surprisingly weird and terribly awkward. Haven't post anything in here since, I don't know maybe last year I guess. Last thing I remember was that I posted something like hmm nope don't remember anything. Whatever.

Anyway, I am in my final year, first semester now as a student in IIUM. Not exactly yet as the semester has not started (start in September fyi) but hey, I am freaking graduating next year. Who cares! Time sure flies. Been through ups and downs and downs and downsss all these while but, hey, I survived. God knows how much I was struggling to stay alive, yeah to stay alive. Suicidal thoughts? A close friend of mine. Depression? I don't know, probably my crush. Fake smile? My favorite outfit to be worn during the day. Shit, enough with all these, I am a positive person. I can do this. Gonna fake happiness till I really feel it.

What is life without drama right? I am happy studying while working now, yes working as a part timer does help to distract me from staying under those blanket of sadness. Money give happiness. Eh, no, scratch that. Money equals to food and food equals to happiness, yeah that is more like it. I am actually laughing right now because I think I am one hella funny person but to put "haha" at the end of my sentence is sort of weird. But still, know that I am actually laughing right now because I am funny, trust me.

I think that is enough for today, see ya when I see ya! Adios

Salam.
