Number 119

heys...sorry couldn't post during the past 4 days...cuz i was stuck in a kampung[kampung mukut to be presise] in the beautiful island of tioman.well,i can't say that it wasn't fun,but it was really really beautiful,fun,relaxing and the people there are super friendly.and cute sometimes.haha.anyways,i just came back from malaysia today at 'round 2pm.

the house we stayed in was quite freaking at first.cuz there were like ants everywhere.and we had to walk past a monkey that they keep chained up before getting to the kitchen to eat..haha.we went swimming in the beach in front of our house there when we got there.it was so shiok lah.

then we went for dinner after bathing and then we went to the jetty for some fishing.lol.daddy let camelia hold the fishing rod to fish and she really stood there without moving.it was hilarious!then zai uncle went to check the line and found out that the baits hadn't even went into the water lah!

then we went back to sleep liao loh.but anyways,the bed was so hard and i couldn't even sleep lah.and camelia and iris were making so much noise in the morning...want to try to sleep also cannot.

well,we went fishing on the boat afterwards and to the beach.we made friends with auntie aisha's niece called zura.we call her kaka zura since she's malay and kaka is malay for older sister.and we caught ben gege flirting with her lah.!haha.

while we were fishing,the boatmen,zaine,zafif,zarif and another,were fishing along with us lah.but they had the skill and they catch the fish super fast lah.they were catching groupas and promphets and many else faster then us.lol

we went to the only beach on the left side of the island later and swam for a while.then went up to the jetty to have lunch.[cuz the boatmen "tah pao" the food for our lunch mahhs]...the food super nice.

then we went to the waterfall for a bath.the water was freezing and cleansing at the same time.we needn't bathe after we got back to the house.and had dinner.well,words cannot express how i felt.we took more than a thousand photos altogether using ben gege's and our cameras.

and after we went back and bathed,kaka zura asked ben gege out and treated him to ice-kachang.the children[us],were assuming that something had happened between them for them to go out together.lol...btw

nothing much happened until the next day.then we went to the marine park and the coral island later.the marine park was absoulutely[?] nice.and i learnt how to snorkel there.and if you put rice or bread in the water,the fish will start coming and you can actually touch the fish while they're eating leh!

but you can't see the bottom of the park since it's part of the sea and the cordoned off one area for this park.and the boatmen's diving skills are just great.they can dive right down until you can't see them and then come up.cool!

then we saw sharks swimming quite close up,but nobody dared to touch them.haha....we went to the coral island after that.i ate lunch first before going into the water.it was so nice if you use the snorkel and look,you can see shoals and shoals of fish and corals.!

mummy got lost in her own world once she went into the water lah.and she ended up getting a sunburn on her face.we went fishing after that and i think zarif caught a super big parrot fish and mummy caught a savenger fish for the "closing ceremony"..

we threw it back afterwards cuz it was inedible and yeh.the cool thing is that the fish has a head shaped like the bottom of a boot to stick onto a shark according to ben gege.haha....after that auntie aisha and zafif took us to the small waterfall in the village.

it was nice,but there was just to many mosquitoes and the path there isn't cemented,it'slike an old man's route.and it's really freaky.but the water there is cooling.and once i put my hair in,it became soft and silky without me even putting the conditioner.

then had bbq.but before that,wew went to eat ice-kachang.then they have a different version of keropoke[?]whih is like fishcake but soft and not as chewy.we had bbq for dinner.and i learned how to eat a crawfish with the help of auntie aisha and ben gege.

lol.the crawfish was nice.the lobster was a bit of a disappointment cuz it tasted the same as the crawfish.then we ate prawn,crab...shiok.it was a true seafood bbq.with the parrot fish zarif caught.the other group of people didn't have it.lol

and we talked for very long,then we pestered zafif to bring us prawn fishing.haiz.but we didn't catch anything.but we saw the prawn lah.we didn't catch it cuz: zafif isn't skilled enough.zaine's better.haha.

we went back to sleep after that.i fell on the bed on went to sleep immediately.haha.theni woke up the next morning somewhat grouchy lah..haha.then i freshened up,and went to see the dunno what animal that the ah tok's trap caught.

haha.then we left.nothing much.cuz we had to leave early.8am.haha.but we promised to go back next year..haha..anyway,i'll post the pictures when i get them.cuz ben gege's camera had more photos.900+ photos.okies?gtg.haha
