Cebu day 4 (Seasick)

Posted by on
(I am terribly sorry for a huge delay on this post. Too much assignment, too many presentation and too many groups to attend. A month has passed, yet Cebu travelog is way far to meet the end)


Seasick

This morning i woke up around 4 and had a cup of instant coffee which i vomit few minutes later due to lactose intolerance. So basically, my tummy was empty. I went to the Whale Shark centre with empty tummy without knowing the consequences. After the whale shark session over, i felt dizzy and spinning. We straight enter the vehicle and move to Tumalog Falls. I already felt like vomiting inside the van. When we reach Tumalog, the guy offer a motorcycle to take us to the falls but we refuse and chose to walk. I really need a space and air. It doesn't took long before i vomit and vomit and vomit. Nothing cames out, only water and saliva and a lot of form like  thing which i don't know what. I felt much better after few time vomiting and manage to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Tumalog. Now i was in the room, packing up for our next destination which is Cebu city, i still feel the sea sick. I feel like the world is spinning around me and my body feel like moving like a waves. Oh no!! How will i survive the 3 hours bus ride from Oslob to Cebu after this???!!!



Whale shark was incredible, but...

It's not the whale shark that i am afraid of. They are so beautiful, magnificent and incredible creature. They are humongous and so gentle. I am not afraid of them. In fact, i was stunned looking at them in front of my eyes. But! There is a but that i probably will regret it for the rest of my life. I never get comfy with life jacket, especially with oversize life jacket. So the first 5 minutes, i was on the boat thinking weather i want to put on the jacket or to full it off. Then i proceed with the life jacket, which i regret till now. I should never put on the life jacket. I never be good with a life jacket. So the next 10 minutes i was swimming with the life jacket which i constantly trying to place it right on my body. I wanted to swim further down to the water but the jacket forbid me to do that. I cannot swim like usual. After few time struggling with the jacket, i finally decided to pull off the jacket and i am free. Pity me, its almost time out so i only manage to swim few minutes freely. Oh did i mention how i hate snorkeling gear? I am very much prefer to use my own goggle and swimming and free diving like what i usually do. I regret that i use the snorkeling gear.  I wish, oh i wish, next time i can do it all over again, WITHOUT the life jacket, WITHOUT the seasick, and ONLY WITH my goggle. That time, its only me, and the whale shark. See you again soon whale shark. I will come again.

But apart of all the mess, i still saw how beautiful, magnificent and incredible the whale shark is. They are humongous. I cannot believe that they are in front of me, swimming beside me gently without bring any mess. They are so huge yet so gentle. I began to realize how small human is but creates so much damage to the planet. It brings me to some stage where i feel responsible to protect this planet and all its creature. Swimming with whale shark bring me closer to the nature and its wonderful creature. And more than that, it bring me closer to the creator. How amazing god creates them all to us to understand our self. So it is our responsible to take care of it.

TIPS MEMAKAI KOLEKSI SKIRT HITAM (dan tips travel!)

TIPS MEMAKAI KOLEKSI SKIRT HITAM (dan tips travel!) Bila aku travel dengan kapal terbang, satu benda yang aku sebolehnya nak elak adalah check-in luggage. Tidak pernah lagi aku travel dengan beg yang lebih berat dari 7kg. Mesti seboleh-bolehnya aku akan muatkan semua barang dalam hand luggage. Sebagai seorang yang sentiasa travel light, aku sangat 'particular' dengan setiap helaian pakaian dan barangan yang aku bawa.  Sebenarnya, nak pack baju untuk seminggu dengan hanya menggunakan cabin luggage (7kg max) tidaklah sukar jika

Hari simen kaki ku dibuka

Dia dengar rintihanku 4hb Mac, aku dengan semangatnya bersiap-siap. Awal pagi lagi dah gigih mandi, gigih panjat tangga naik bilik cari baju, gigih bermekap, semuanya kerana hari itu ada appointment dengan doktor ortopedik di Hospital Tengku Ampuan Rahimah, Klang. Sepanjang 3 minggu aku memakai simen di kaki kiri ku, tak henti doa ku pada Ilahi. Sungguh, sangat sangat sangat ku harapkan update positif dari doktor untuk hari itu. Lebih spesifik, aku mahu tulang aku sembuh. Aku mahu simen ini dibuka. Aku mahu boleh berjalan seperti biasa. Menitis air mata aku tiap kali berdoa. Menggigil badanku menahan jiwa yang bergelora. Sungguh besar permintaanku, kadang kala segan rasanya menadah tangan meminta. Layakkah doaku diterima? Sesungguhnya tiadalah kuasa ku untuk menyembuhkan tulang selain kuasa Allah semata. Waima pakar tulang sekalipun tidak ada ubat untuk mengubati tulang yang patah. Bawa lah ke mana pun, sensei atau dukun tulang sekalipun. Bagi lah daun ka, herba tumbuk ka, apa s...

Kemas kini gambar passport anak anda

Kemas kini gambar passport anak anda Mungkin ramai yang dah tahu tapi mungkin juga tak ramai yang tahu bahawa gambar dalam passport kanak-kanak (bawah 12 tahun) perlu di tukar apabila usianya meningkat, atau dengan kata lain, bila wajahnya berubah. Kalau ikut kebanyakan orang cakap (yang saya baca di group, forum, dan blog lain) untuk passport bayi berusia 6 bulan (usia minima membuat passport) memang ada klausa yang menyatakan boleh dan perlu untuk update gambar terkini kanak-kanak itu apabila dia menginjak 2 tahun. Tak paham? Takpe. Mula-mula baca tu aku pun konpius juga.

bon voyage!!

Bon Voyage!!! Fare well and good luck to my beloved brother Abd Rauf b. Mohd Halim ~~~~~~ tahniah kerana berjaya menyambung pelajaran ke Aussie!! yeay!!! ~~~~~~ jangan lupa kami disini~~ semoga berjaya di perantauan!! send la gambar byk2 ye~~~ ~~xoxo ~~

cerminku retak seribu

Cermin ini berusia 4 tahun, seusia dengan kereta ini juga. jadi kerana tak pernah ada tinted pon, maka jangka hayatnya hampir menemui penghujung. Tak angin tak ribut (ok, mungkin ada angin sikit, lalu menerbangkan seketul batu yang super halus dan menghentam cermin ini secara lemah gemalai, lalu ia pon crack), hubby nak keluar jumpa client, sekali nampak dah retak seribu.. Lama jugak dok investigate benda nih. 1. Cubaan orang pecah masuk kah? 2. terkena lontaran batu budak nakal kah? 3. terkena batu yang terpelanting sebab orang mesin rumput kah? 4. atau kerana usianya dah lanjut, makan ketahanannya memang sudah kurang, jadi dengan sedikit hentaman batu halus pon bisa meretakkannya... 5. Kereta sebelah terlanggar ketika membuka pintu keretanya kah.. aku stick to the 4th. malas nak pikir panjang dah. Sebab tak ada budak nakal kat situ, tak ada orang mesin rumput, dan ia bukan tanda orang cuba pecah masuk sebab punca retak/ mark dia adalah halus, bulan dari kesan hentaman atau pukulan. s...

Kenapa aku pilih untuk tidak balik konvo: The day my heart holding back.

Konvo. Kalau sebut konvo, rata-rata student memang excited dan tak sabar nak ber konvo. Konvo merupakan satu simbolik bahawa pelajar itu telah tamat pengajian.  Konvo ini bagi sesetengah orang, bagaikan satu check point penting dalam hidup. Ia boleh jadi sebagai satu sasaran atau target dalam hidup. Ada yang meletakkan sasaran "mahu konvo dengan first class honours". Bagi pelajar UiTM, ada juga yang meletakkan sasaran "mahu konvo dengan selempang pink". Boleh dikatakan kalau dapat pakai selempang pink tu merupakan pencapaian yang hebat lah bagi pelajar UiTM. Menjelang hari konvo, masing-masing memang tak sabar dan excited nak berkonvo. Tempah baju baru, beli kasut baru, tudung baru, dan booking hotel untuk keluarga yang akan hadir merai. Bagi majoriti pelajar Malaysia, majlis konvokesyen memang satu big deal bagi mereka, termasuklah aku sebelum ini. Sehinggakan ke saat akhir aku masih berharap aku boleh balik Malaysia untuk menghadiri majlis konvokesyen aku ...
