My Summer Trip

Yo wassup homie! HAHA. While most of my friends in the UK are already back to Malaysia, I decided, smart enough to go back slightly late (well 30 days late LOL) which is in the middle of July. Saja gedik nak rasa puasa kat sini haha. (18 hours fyi) #mampoo? So to fill my time, I just got back actually from my summer trip part 1 haha lol which were Nice, Monaco, Monte Carlo and Milan. Thanks to my friend Aliff Fuad who never gave up to pujuk me to go with him haha.

So this post is not to brag about where I went and such, just wanna share some of the things, good or bad that I observed during my stay there. So enough bunga bunga ni let's just get straight to the story shall we?

NICE

Nice = Malaysia That's for the intro haha. The nightlife, the weather, the market everything haha. Unlike here in the UK, the bars and restaurants won't closed until there is even one customer inside. The reason I knew was because my hostel was literally above an Irish bar. I don't think it's exaggerating for me to say that it's a food paradise there, especially the Old Town. But the food is quite expensive I must say. You're looking at 7- 10 euros per meal. The beach, well it's not that exciting to chill there I must say. It's rocky beach fyi, so yeah might wanna watch your step dude haha. But the water is clear tho. The city itself is very nice to walk around.

MONTE CARLO

If you ain't got no money then I don't wanna talk haha. Like seriously, the only reason of the cheap salon cars are available are because of the tourists renting the cars. Minus that, Ferrari, Aston Martin, Porsche and other you-know-what-i-mean brands you will only see. If you wanna test just how rich you are, just spend an hour there HAHA. There were not many things to do there, for me, I went to see the collection of cars of Prince of Monaco, his castle and also the world famous bend for the F1. And please don't go to the Japanese Garden, it's like really nothing there. And if you have the money just take the train. The bus is cheap but man the queues are like hell. Compared to Nice and Cannes, I must say the water is the clearest here. Overall, you should go to Monte Carlo. Just... be there.

CANNES

Yeah Mr Bean right?! I know haha. The only problem I had was only the journey was too long for me (almost 2 hours). The sandy beach there was perfect for swimming and man the ice cream there is very good! (me loikee mango) Too bad we don't the time to go to the place where they held the film festival though. But hanging in the beach of Cannes kot, what more can i ask? HAHA

MILAN

Quite excited to go here actually cause I take some Italians back in the Uni, so tak sabar to put it to the test haha. First the guest house that I was staying, it was perfect. The wi-fi, the location and the room itself were very nice! Plus the transport system here is very efficient but is not very strict as well. You can simply take a tram and not paying an euro at all. Tapi kitorang tak buat la haha LOL. When speaking of Milan, the first thing came to all our minds is the Cathedral aka Duomo. Il Duomo is very nice I could not agree more. The statue, details of the building are to good to be true, but the people around there really worried me. There were some Africans I think, attacked us at the exit of the metro station near the Duomo. By attack I don't mean rob jgan rsau haha. They forced us to buy their some kind of stupid and ugly bracelet and keep following us until we were about to enter the Duomo. Luckily nothing happened to us but still, this leaves bad reputation for people who are about to visit Milan. Same thing at the Milan Centrale. Foreigners like literally sleeping outside the station, peeing and even pooping there. I find this is very rude for a person to do this let alone a foreigner. The government should do something about this I must say. Moving on, about the food, memang tak payah risau. The price is alright and for muslims, halal foods are everywhere.

To conclude, I am proud to say this trip went well haha. Loving every single moment of it. And I learnt a lot as well, from the places, the people, the museums and even the transport system lol haha. Finally I would to say, just travel! Don't worry about money, because you can always work for money, but not for memories. TATA! :D

7 minutes summary of my trip HEHE!

my life suckssss! ! ! !

Before I start, you might wanna watch this video by NigaHiga. . .

HAHAHAHA! LOL! Lawak kan? But can you see the meaning of the vids? ? 

The other day, I was on my way to my apartment from KTM Subang. It was raining Tom and Jerry that time. (bawah sket dari raining cats and dogs) HEHEH! Then to my surprise, I saw an old couple holding hands nak ke KTM. It was quite a blur view, but then bila dah dekat, OMG! Both of them are blind!! :O And I was like " How to hell they are going to cross these busy road on such a rainy day? ? I dunno what got into me that day but at first I tak nak tolong sebab na cepat - cepat balik apartment. (Y U so evil that day???) But then I ran back and helped them to cross the road.

After that, I continue my journey to the bus stop, waiting for Rapid bus (T523) to USJ 1. It was still raining but dah kureng sket la. Then there was a Western foreigner came towards me. She tried to say something but macam susah nak kluo. me monolog dalaman, "Ai, bisu ke minah ni??" And turns out she was indeed bisu AND also pekak! Subhanallah. Bersalahnya aku. . . :( She repeated the word, P. . UD... U..... PU....D... U..... PUDU..... Luckily I agak arif la tentang public transportation ni. But there is no bus to PUDU at that area. What she did was took the bus to KL Sentral first. And I really there, someone will help her pulak.

I dunno bout you but I don't really think that me having these 2 incidents yang interval tak sampai 10 minit pon is kebetulan. I really think that Lord sengaja to remind to be thankful of what I had. For the past 3 weeks, I kinda complain to myself bout having trouble to mingle with the new classmates, lonely sebab kawan semua dah pindah apartment laen, tension sebab swimming ta fix fix lagi and memacam lagi la.

But during that incidents, I kep silent until I reached my apartment. One sebab memang sorang pon kan? HAHA and second sebab malu with my self yang tak tahu nak bersyukur. I can see perfectly (my eyesight is perfect fyi) and speak and listen perfectly. Even tu pon I still complain about my life. 

Not me je kan? I think you all pon sometimes complain about your life. Too many homeworks, too little sleep, too fat, too skinny and banyak lagi la TOO. What we don't realize is that this is only His test, and trust me, good things will come afterwards. Try to be optimist okay? That's what I try to say to myself. 

What should we do is, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE be thankful for ur life. (orang kat Plaestin tu hidup mati pon tak tentu). and second, dah tahu ada kelemahan tu, apa lagi, GO FIX IT LA!!!!  And yes I know we are not perfect, but if you try to aim for it, your weakness will start to fade away. Arasso??? 

Sampai di sini sahaja. I hope readers can get something from this. So am I. Be optimist okay?? HAHA bye salam. 

Of Canada and Malaysia >,O

HrrMmmMmm. . .  

 

Here's a vid for starters. . . :) aww. . . I miss lil Canada in Malaysia! >,<

FAR FAR AWAY?? (O,O)

"Oh Me Gosh!" :O "They just broke up??"  "But they just had their anniversary?!" "I mean they were together for like 4 years?" "How could it be?!" "They've been together for 3 years. . ." D: "That's such a bummer" "Perhaps they're just not meant for each other" "Maybe there's someone better in store for her" "What a cheater that guy is" >:@ "Man that girl who stole the guy from her is so b*tchy" "How could he do that to her!?" "I bet he's gonna regret what he did" =o=

These statements/ questions above are usually used to express people's disbelief when couples broke up. As a matter of fact, most couples that broke up usually were in a long distance relationship. And so instead of focusing on the topic, breakups, I'd be talking bout long distance relationships..

LONG DISTANCE RELATIONSHIP: DOOMED. Kidding! trololololol. xDD Um, okay I'll be more serious now. >,< LDR is a relationship held between two people who are separated by distance. Meaning, having no chance to see each other as often compared to the normal-dating-couples. Aww. . . That's such a bummer right?? :C  

Chill la bro!

        Haritu pergi Penang saja jalan jalan ngan cousin sume. Tak lama pun, 2 days 1 night je. Actually, saya dah banyak kali da pergi Penang, tapi tak tahu la. . .  This trip was the worst! :( 

WHYYYY????

Expect the Unexpected (>,O)

Well, okay so I've experienced a lot of ups and downs here in Canada. . . >,O People might thought "Owh man she's having a blast in Vancouver. Weehee~" :D or, "I wanna be like her", "Man, I can't wait to fly too" etc22. . .

"but yaw~ REALITY CHECK people!"

The thing about studying overseas, you really need to know the purpose why you're here. I mean, if you're here just to have fun, and show off to people "We got snow here! Tralalalala~ :3 " then, forget it. =.= *serious tone* lol. No pressure, but really. *serious tone-again* =..=

So the reason why I'm writing this post here today is coz 1. my brain is stuck with all the homework and assignments that I've gone through *Brain: Have some mercy Mira, I'm about to explodeeeee. . . .  . D:) Moi: Fine22. We should take a break. how bout we go and stalk people on fb? (kidding! lol.)* and 2. I just feel that my world is turning upside down here in a way, really, it's like I'm standing on a round doughnut, and now I'm at the downside up at the bottom part of the doughnut, completely 180 degrees! *well actually not really, I'm just exaggerating using hyperbole for a while there. xD *

My first mid term did not turn out so well as I've expected. And I just feel insecure with the fact that, ouh c'mon Mira, the topics learnt are not all that new?(!) Why aren't you achieving your target?

The New Ninja :P

NIHON GOJU KARATE

So, I just got back from another karate lesson. Though this is not my first class, there's something interesting about our Sensei. Unlike my previous Sensei in Ninjutsu, Sensei Raymond is in his 50's I think. So instead of practicing our punches at the Gym when I was in STF, we practice at the Dojo. And so you'll have the wooden platform covered with mats.

I gotta say the only Malays, well Muslims too I guess are Farhanah and I. As usual, etiquette always comes first in any martial arts. And like before, in Ninja, we would just bow to our Sensei and say "Sensei onagashimasu". But this time it's slightly different, in a way, we have to sit in front of a picture of our Grandmaster (Sort of like the founder) and bow to him too. During that time, my friend and I were a bit blur and we sorta just like lower our heads (not entirely to the floor). 

Right after that, and before starting our lesson, he whispered something to the Senpai. Senpai Ian approached us right afterwards and said something we'd never thought he'd say. . .

chantek manakah anda?

         "Weh, cantiklah perempuan tu!", "Pergh, hensem betul mamat tu!" Selalu kan kita dengar that word. Either on television or our everyday conversation? Tapi penah korang terfikir, at what level kita boleh panggil orang tu cantik? Kita boleh panggil orang tu kaya sebab duet tu kuantiti boleh kira, tapi yang subjektif mcam mana?
 
         Mengikut John Gray, best selling writer of relationships, kita akan terus tahu orang itu cantek melalui jiwa a.k.a. souls. It is like an automatic feeling and 'SNAP!' kita akan kelaskan orang itu cantik. That's why cantik for a person, maybe not the same for cantik of the person's friends. "Eh apa la kau pilih awek takde 'class' langsung." , tak betul rasanya ckap camtu since we have different definition of beautiful.
