Welcome to the Underworld......

Yabedabedoooo......thanks to my hubby....I now can swim with and be among the sea creatures....took us (my hubby and I and another 2 new friends) 3 sun-burning days of hardwork to finally earned ourselves the licence to explore the underworld anywhere and anytime we will want....
Thanks to Cikgu Andy Lua (the one in red T) for being patience with us....thanks for the words of motivation which made our spirit soared rocket high...or should I say....ocean deep....hehehe.... Cikgu Andy said we were his best local students so far this year....althought we guess he might just be saying that to all of his students to keep our faces smiling and spirit high....anyhow....it worked cuz we were more determined to do better and learn faster....and looking forward to the end of the session....the treats of breathtakingly amazingly beautiful reefs await at the bottom of the lagoon around the island....
....the lesson involved serious reading...(the reading material is about an inch thick with 5 chapters to cover)......about the basics on diving...the equipments...the dos & don'ts.....things that can keep u alive while down there....most important...keep breathing....
4 hours of video session.....diving skills late nites...and finally...final exam...and miraculously...we survived...heee...then few quizes.....and a final exam.....passing marks...85% i think....couldn't remember....heee
...and when that's over and done with...underwater...here we come.....the part I love most....
......no fear all ye underwater creatures.....I come in peace.........
......my hubby......the best student among d 4 of us.....cewaaah......caya la.....at least I have a better diver to back me up...hehehehe

wooooohhhoooooo............
during the 3 days drill, we had the chance to dive at 5 different location...D'Lagoon, 3 Ruang, Batu Layar, Shark Point and...couldnt recall the last one....gotta check my dive log...heee...
Personally, I think it wasn't that difficult nor was it too easy to get a diving licence. If one can remain calm at all times especially underwater, abide the rules and enjoy being underwater....then it will not be much of a problem....and trust me...it was worth 100% of what you are paying for.....

How Geng Bas Sekolah Ran Over Kucing Hitam

I had my 1st shot at paintball sometime back in August '08. Knowing it being a risky game, excites me and my curiousity outgrew any rasional reasoning left in me...hehehehe....
And so....regardless of the warnings about the injuries that I might inflict upon myself, the 1st game was fun and ended well....therefore..I decided that I love this new game...... Then, it was sumtime in April '09 that we received an email informing about the PPTD Paintball tournament. I wasn't thinkin much about it at that time until about a couple of weeks before the game, I bumped into Kupez, a friend of mine, asking if I'm interested in joining. Dah jumpe kaki...ape lagi....we went searching for 3 other team members la....Few came and went, and finally we got our team together. Azi, one of our team members, came up with a catchy name for our team,'Geng Bas Sekolah'. Ok la tu....kami pun mcm budak sekolah baru blajaq nak main paintball...hehehe...
That weekend kami gi test skill kat Extreme Park Shah Alam.....and Jamal (baju putih, mencangkung tu..)pulak tertembak dan luka kat leher.....cian dia...terus dia cancel plan nak join tournament tu dan risau tahap cipan...sebab dia nak kawin bulan Mei ni....takut bapak mertua marah dia ada hicky kat leher....ahaks...
Introducing...the underdog.....Geng Bas Sekolah....terbayek lah!! Wooohooo....
...haaa...hari tournament tu....ape-ape pun...warm up dulu beb...bagi urat-urat tu longgar sikit...hee....
...yang baju purple tu salah sorang team Kucing Hitam...ehemmm....he happens to be otai dalam game ni k....
....yang baju hitam tu pun salah sorang otai team tu.....dan ada lagi 1 otai yang takde dalam gambo ni....
we didn't play to win...didn't even put any hope on winning anything...we came for fun....no elaborate plans in place....just shoot....and have fun.... ....and avoid getting shot at....
.....with a bit of impromptu strategies...
...and wallaaah!!!....WE ARE THE CHAMPION MY FRIEND (Freddy Mercury may just as well burst to tears in his grave listening to me singing his song for this victory hehehe)....weeeheee.....opppsss...the bus just ran over the black cat...sorry....can't help gloating out loud about it....that was a total surprise to me...to us...so I'm gonna gloat as much as I want and as long as I wish to....hehehehe
whey hey....look at us go.....good job everyone....we will do this again next year alright....

Oh! the lady, 2nd from left is Kupez pregnant wife, Elle...and our manager...this victory is for the baby too....hee....
we got to go home with a big hamper, RM150 cash and each got a trophy....

........the trophy......

....the cash....
...and for me...few bruises on the body and one huge bruise on the thigh....from being shot at.....at close range (which was not supposed to....)but it was all worth it....hehehe....we won...it would have hurt more if we didn't....hik hik hik...

Formula 1-March 2009

March....the yearly Sepang F1....tahun ni dapat tiket di Ruby.......last year my grup was larger, this year, just me & my hubby.....and I'm not complaining...heeee
went on Sunday for the final race (and still have to pay for a 3-day parking fee k...)....and the 'weather controller' chose that day to douse the the track with super heavy rain....
my hubby bukan main seronok tengok the F1 drivers skidded....more action he said....well...to much action that the race had to be ended early.....oh darn....haru biru jadinya...

better luck next year guys.....hee....then off we went in the rain...towards the swampy carpark....
