Broga Hill and Temple Expedition - The Hidden Jewel

Busy, busy, & busy. Even though I am in my holidays, I still have a lot of things on my mind. So many things are happening simultaneously. Currently, I am in the midst of packing my luggage to Siem Reap, Cambodia. Yup, I am feeling the adrenaline and the anxiety at the same time. This is all because I have not been on a trip for ages. Plus, this trip is some sort like a mini-beg-packing trip. Wish me have lots of fun(^^).......

Now, back to the story of after final examination. If you have read my previous, you would know that I had a crazy time for the 3 birthdays, 3 movies and 1 unforgettable experience. Then, just like that, time flew like the speed of light - it was 3.00am. After that, I went to stay a night at Lai's place. Hahaha, I felt so bad because I came to their place so late. Then, after 2 hours of nap, at around 5.30am, we went to conquer a little hill ....hahahaha....The BROGA HILL!!!!! or 茅草山!!!!

May I say that it was pitch-black when we reached there. Therefore, A BIG REMINDER for people who hike the hill in the morning - Remember To Bring Torch Light!!!! Holes were everywhere!!!

Actually, it was quite an ease to climb the hill. However, there were so dangerous slope that slowed us down. Overall, we took 45 minutes to reach the 1st top; then, plus 10 mins to reach the 2nd top. But, we did not went for the 3rd top though. The sunrise was actually quite nice! Thanks to my technique, I was able to capture that moment. However, the pictures turned out to be quite dim. Still, the warm sun was truly beautiful!

Then, it was time to leave. Obviously, going down was easier than going up! It took less than 30 mins to reach shuxin's car. We were exhausted to the max and then, we had breakfast in town.

Of course, we really did not know how or when to stop. Therefore, we went to a famous temple in Broga. It could be considered as a traditional Chinese temple that portraits the beauty of Chinese culture. Therefore, this temple is a must visit landmark in Broga!

As the "future-to-be-world-renowned-fashion-artistic-commercial photographer again, I was snapping pictures non-stop. This was one of my favourite - Pagoda with A Pineapple.

Then, the final attraction was the "十二生肖" or the twelve zodiac animals. (Translation???Not sure). These twelve animals represent not only a person's birthday, it might also determines the fate of a person for Chinese. Believe it or not, this is your choice(^^)......

Lastly, a big thank to the models of the day!!!!!!!!!!!!

Btw, the author will be away starting from tomorrow!!!!

I still remembered the good old days which everything would just come together. It was busy, but satisfyingly enjoyable and unforgettable. Well, because right now, I am gonna share with you all 3 birthdays, 3 movies and 1 unforgettable experience. (Yes, birthday gals, this post is for you; I know that you all have been waiting)


Elaine Birthday At Pizza Hut, Kajang

Just right after our second last paper - Heat & Mass transfer, we whole gang went to unwind ourselves. However, little did Miss Elaine know that , we were planning a surprise early celebration for her. Hahaha, as the "future-to-be-world-renowned-fashion-artistic-commercial photographer, I was able to catch the true moment! Elaine was really happy that day!!!!


Amirah Birthday At Kapas Hall Kitchen, UNMC
amirah bday
Yes, we just finished our last paper. Actually, we already planned a surprise for for her. But, since it was like a huge release from the exams and works, everybody went to relax to one of popular places in KL - MIDVALLEY. Therefore, we had to wait for her to return to the uni first.(Since we were also at Midvalley). Hahaha, then, it was surprise for her(^^) at 2.30 am in the morning.

Lih Chi Birthday At Basketball Court, UNMC

Then, on the same day, before Amirah's Birthday, we were enjoying the freedom from the uni. Haha, we went to sing K - - - - Dinner at Kaki Corner - - - - Movie at Midvalley - - - - Birthday at Basketball Court - - - - Birthday at Kitchen. Omg, it was crazy to do everything in a single day. Again, it was satisfyingly exciting!



Angels and Demons

It had nothing to do with Da Vinci Code The Movie(thankgoodness). Well, the previous movie was not that adventurous and the graphic was more than plain. Anyway,Angels and Demons actually exceeded my expectation as a non-related sequel. Everything was planned by a man who thought that what he did was for mankind. What I love about the movie was its element of surprise. It was so twisted and so intrigued to follow the pace of the movie. The actors were fine; but the priest played by Evan Mcgregor was a little bit fake. Personally, he could not convince me that he was a priest. The studyline was terrific; however, with only 1 killer/hitman and a priest, they can plan the whole agenda. It was a little bit not logical. Overall, this is quite a movie.

Actors : 3/5
Story : 4/5
Visual : 4.5/5


Star Trek
star trek

This by far, is my favourite movie of this few months? Haha, the storyline was superb with the theme of future and past. What we did in the past would affect our future! Of course, since it was a classic on the television, I expected it to be good. But, it was great! Chris Pine was the bad boy in the movie while Zachary/Sylar was the over-analytic Vulcan - Spock. Apart from that, one of the most surprising scene was Winona Ryder played the role of Spock's mother. I am her fan-cy woh....[here] . Then, there was the original Spock in the tv show played the future Spock. HAHAHA! The dialouge was quite funny.....

Why did you married mother?
Because it was logical?!

Actors : 4.5/5
Story : 4/5
Visual : 4.5/5


Terminator Salvation

It was the fourth installment of Terminator. It was not a disappointment; but, it did not really impact me like the previous movies. If you all remembered, I did a post on the Terminator Series to terminate insomnia[here]. I think that I expect too much from Terminator Salvation since Terminator 2 was superb. The cast was actually quite nice! But, the story? It was kinda bored! It did not have the depth like the previous movies, except for extreme-action and fireworks!
  • Terminator 1 - The Excitement Began
  • Terminator 2: The Judgement Day - The Climax
  • Terminator 3: The Rise of Machine - The Downfall
  • Terminator 4: Salvation - The Bottom?

Actors : 4/5
Story : 2.5/5
Visual : 4/5


After all this, I was still determined to conquer Broga Hill! Therefore, stay tune for Broga Hill and The Temple!!!! Overall, I had a crazy time after my finals. Yes, now, I am resting at home and planning my trip to Cambodia - Siem Reap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yellow Hearts For The Need

After a horrific journey from KL to Ipoh, I finally survived the road trip. Well, I woke up around 7.30am and tried to get to KL Central from Serdang before 9am. But, it took me almost an hour to reach there. Then, I missed the train to Ipoh. Then, I changed to Plan B - took bus instead. Anyway, KTM wasted everybody time!!!!

Anyway, right after I reached home, I had my lunch and met up my old friends at Ipoh Parade. Omg, it had been quite some time we met up! We did not really change that much, except

  • Ziyang-Hmmm, 1 word - facial
  • kahjoon - more tanned
  • joonheng - still the same
  • kahfei - also the same
  • kokleong - he needs to exercise
Hahaha, really missed them! Some of them are leaving the country to further their studies overseas. Again, I wish them all the best with my heart! We shall be friend forever; keep in touch!!!!
