Posted by Unknown , Labels:

Here comes the part 4 of my CNY story~
Part 4 is about where I go on fourth of CNY.
This will not be longer that the other parts.
Well, enough of talking, here is my story....

17/2/2010
* Port
That day, I don't know why are we going to Pasir Hitam(大直弄).
So I just grab on my jeans and T-shirt plus slipper.
When we reached to the port, I saw people around me, who will follow to Pasir Hitam as well...
Wow... they wear so formal... Then my dad told me we going to a jamuan...
I was thinking to myself, how embarrassing...

* First time on boat
I think that time probably was my first time on boat.
So I was so exciting~!!
I scare that my handphone will drop into water(don't said that it won't happened. It maybe won't happened on you, but I sure it will happened on ME!), so I called my brother to take lots of pictures then send it to me.
Let's talk about how the boat look like...
It don't have roof, we all sat at the "ground"(wood, more likely...), which we step on...
That time, the sun was bright and shine~ But we still can saw that far there is cloud was so dark.

* Here we go~!!
The boat's engine was started. I was so excited to look around like I will never see them before~
I think we were on the sea, cause the water was salty. But it look like a river for me... Because there were many islands and we travel between the island.
We were surrounded by mangrove(if i'm not wrong about it, I just guess it... XD ).

* Changing boat
The boat which I and my brothers and my mom sat(my dad went with other better boat, which with roof) din't really go fast.
I thought it was like that at first. Then it suddenly stopped. The other boat came from behind and stopped beside us.
Later the boat owner call some of the passengers to moved to the other boat. Then I know we were over passengers. No wonder the boat was so slow.
My mom wanted to change the boat, but me and my brothers wanted to stay, so my mom stayed at the boat with us.
When we on the way back to Taiping, my dad told me that luckily we din't change the boat because that boat nearly SINK~!!
He said his friends who on the boat told him that the boat full with water during the rain~!! So geli... Scare scare...

* Rain is coming~!!
After changing boat, we continue our journey to Pasir Hitam.
Remember that I said it looked like its gonna rain far away when I was in port?
It really raining over there~!! And we have to passed through there~!!
When we came to the region which was rain, the boat owner gave us a... hmm... what we called that... the blue and orange in color big plastic to cover lorries...
So we all used that to "make" it as a roof and we sat under it.
Well, not everyone was inside the "roof".
Like my eldest brother and second brother, who were no place to hide but sat out there let the rain fall on them...
The one who holding news paper was my second brother, beside him was my eldest brother~
* Pasir Hitam
After some time(I think about 10 - 20 minutes) the rain was gone, and we were arrived to our destination.
I was wet on my right hand site of my body but dry on the other side. My eldest brother and second brother wet from top to bottom(Duh~)
Then we walk a few distance, we saw a chinese temple, with big hall in front of it. And inside the hall, full of tables and chairs.
There were the place which we will have our jamuan.
The Chinese Temple entrance

Before the dine, me and my brothers went outside for "photosynthesis", I mean dry ourself... because the sun was bright and shine again.
That jamuan was held my the temple organization for thanks MCA to appropriation to their temple.

* YB Dato' Sri Nizar
Suddenly, Dato' Sri Nizar arrived there without any inform.
He went the the stage and gave speech(sorry, I can't summarize what he had said cause i was so busy eating...)
After speech, he and his followers sat down a while and went.

* Auction
After all the speech have done, the next event was auction. The items for auction which you can buy it from pasar malam...
Such as Chinese New Year decorations and rice.
A bag of rice, they called until RM 1500+ !!

* Leaving
After we finished the first dish, we were leaving.
A group of people, who I follow them to here, went to the port and get into a boat and leave.
At first, our boat was not leaving because their boss din't give any orders, but the boss was drunk at the jamuan...
So we only can wait... wait... and wait...
Then Dato' Sri Nizar appear again. I thought he leave earlier than us. Looked like he was a walk around the island.
That time, at the port, there was 3 boats were tight together.
Dato' Sri Nizar's boat was at the outward. So he have to climb on the boat which I sitting to manage to get into his boat.
So I took the opportunity, took a photo of him.
The one with yellow shirt is YB Dato' Sri Nizar

* No more rain
After few minutes, the boat's engine was started and we leaving~ Luckily there was no rain on the way.

OK~ Here are all my stories of CNY~
After 17/2/2010, no more special stories to tell... Just work and work and work...
So how was my CNY story? Pls pls pls pls give some comment... I need it so much... Thanks~

My Chinese New Year Story (Part 3)

Sorry that I din't make it to post this yesterday...
Cause it was so long...
It take me so long to finish my story XD
Hope you enjoy my CNY story~

Well, where were we?
Oh~ 15/2/2010 midnight.
Then let's continue the story...

15/2/2010
* Back to Taiping
After we eta the spicy soup, me and my family prepaid to came back to Taiping. At that time, I started feel my body temperature were raising and I extremely thirsty(I din't drink because in my uncle's house only got soft drinks). But I din't take it seriously. When I back at home(2.00 a.m.), I was so tired and I went to sleep directly.

* Sickness
3.30 a.m., I was awaken. Not because noise nor cold, but hot. My body extremely hot, hotter than before. I tried to get out from bed, I found out that I had no energy to do that. My head spinning very fast and pain. From all these sickness, I know, pretty clear, I'm sick. Fever.

* Fever
I never sick so seriously like this time before. But told myself, I have to get up, I have to go down and get some drink into my room and switch off the fans and let my door wide open in case my parents can help me when I can't help myself. So I force myself to move my body to kitchen and grab my bottle fill in water and switch off the fans. After few minutes, everything done. I lie down on my bed, cover my body with blanket to let myself sweat. Then I fall asleep.

* Vomit
6.00 a.m., I awake again. My head still spinning and pain, but not as hot as just now. I can't stand it anymore. So I went to my parents room to search for help. My mum told me where Panadol is and I went to get in and sallowed it. This is very bad move... I totally forgot that Panadol I can't eat when my stomach was empty. What happened? I vomited. 30 minutes later, everything I had eat had came out again, from my mouth.

* Getting better
After I vomit, I feel so much better, I went back to my bed and continue sleeping. Around 8.00 a.m., my mum knocked my door and wake me up in hurry, because we were quite late for Jamuan Tahun Baru Cina at Lumut. That jamuan organizer YB Dato' Seri Kang Chu Ha(拿督斯里江作汉) invited my parents to that jamuan. But we have to go to Pantai Remis to visit my grandmom. So we planed to go Lumut in the morning, then visit my grandmom on the way home. By the way, my body is getting better that time. We take maybe 1 hour or more to shower(but I din't because I fever...) then we leave to Lumut.

* Vomit again
When we on our way to Lumut, I can't feel hot anymore(thanks to Panadol) but I feel something wrong with my stomach(thanks to Panandol as well...). Suddenly, I feel something that gonna come out from my mouth. I din't vomit at first, I try to hold it back. But it din't feel good to do so. So I keep taking deep breath in the car. But I can't hold it too long. At last, I reach my hand out to take plastic bag in fornt door of the car, which I put it there yesterday. My secound brother notice that. He thought that I was carsick(I always carsick when I was little). So he called my third brother, who was driving, to stop at a restaurant beside the road. He get down from the car and buy tissue and mineral water for me even I din't ask him to do it. I was shock and feel so... hmm... supprise. Then, finally, I vomit again in the car.

* Jamuan Tahun Baru Cina
After 2 hours, we finally reached there~!!! There was a... kinda a resort or something... Just beside the sea. It not yet complete, but it quite beautiful. When we reach there, the dinning was started. Every tables almost full! But my dad's friends manage to found a place for 7 of us. Sat and looked at the table, the food was almost finish as well. Hmm... I think that's all I can tell about this jamuan. There are nothing special... So, proceed~

* Again... Vomit...
After Lumut trip(if it was a trip), we followed the way back to Pantai Remis. Like just now I told, I feel so unwell, but I din't said it. Like just now as well, I keep deep breath and my second brother notice it. The only plastic bag in the car, which that I had "used", I throw it when we at Lumut. So my second brother order my third brother, the driver(he always be the driver... XD), to stop the car beside the road. But this time, I'm the only one get down the car and squat down. Then "Aw....", vomit...

* Grandmother's house
Ok, my grandmom's house at Pantai Remis. First when we get there, it seem so... Empty... I mean the house... My mom have 8 sisters and brothers, but that day it only got about 20 people in the house. Well, I still get my Ang Pao~ Just not as much as last year... Anyway, I take medicine that my mom can found. I hate that medicine... Cause it have ginger in side(just for your information, ginger not only can expel cold, it also can prevent vomit) and it was so bitter(it was in powder form).

* Sleep a lot
My grandpap, was a fisherman(when he was alive). So the house just beside the sea. When you walk through back yard, open a wooden door, you can jump down and swim(but I din't do so not only because I can't swim but also dirty...). When my grandpap was alive, back there had a big fishing net that we use to hang up there when I was little. But now... The net was gone...

So there is nothing we can do but sit down watch TV or sleep. I choose the second option.

* BBQ time~
At 5.00 p.m., my mom and aunt set up a BBQ place. What we grill? This is it~
It is a sea food. I don't know what it called in English, in Hokkian it sound like "Cai Luan". I got prepaid it in my BBQ party last month. It taste so sweet and delicious~ Before we started, my big brother had bring his girlfriend to join us~ I think she quite enjoy our BBQ. The time pass, sky are darker and darker. Mosquitoes were came out for "dinner". I can't stand on them so I and my big brother's girlfriend ran inside to escape from being victims of mosquitoes.


* Home sweet home
Our BBQ end about dinner time(9.00 p.m.). Then we take our dinner. Later we when back home. My second brother scare that I will vomit again so he call me to sit Benz because Benz are stable then Proton. By the way, we drive 2 cars that day. Cause you can't expect 7 people to sit in 1 car... So my parents and my big brother took Benz, then my second, third, little brother and I took Proton. After we reach home, my second brother went out to meet their friends. So others stay at home watch TV.

* Black Out~!!!
About 12.00 a.m., me and my family sitting at living room watching movie, "Just Follow The Law". Suddenly, TV went black, light go off. Black Out~!!! We walk outside and looked, most of the street got electric just few were black out. We can't do anything, but go sleep. My mom light a candle and lead the way to bedroom. I was so scared... Scared of dark.... I lie on my bed, holding my hand phone, try to make it light on all the time... The room was so dark... Then my mom gave me a candle lamp to put in my room so that I won't so scare... But its not enough for me... Luckily, the electric were back no long... If not, I think I won't close my eyes and sleep...

Ok~ That's my second day of CNY~
You think it is finished?
No~!!
I still got a CNY story, fourth day of CNY.
I went to Pasir Hitam~
It was a interesting story too~ I try to post it as fast as possible~
Don't miss it~!!!

After we take our breakfast, we all move to show house near by. That maybe our new gather place for 2012. That house was huge~!!

Of cause sitting there la~ Don't know is it same with your family.Since all my relatives are gather in one place, so it more easier to collect all Ang Pao from all relatives.

* First time playing "Guitar Hero"
"Guitar Hero" is a game that using artificial guitar and drum set to play. It look like O2 jam but you din't use keyboard nor controller to play. It works with Wii, so no wires. It was so much fun~!! It maximum can 4 players to play, 1 playing guitar, drum, vocal and bass(I think) at the same time. Yes, like a real band~!! But we only have guitar and drum set only, microphone for vocal part were broken. But we still having a lot of fun~!! Later, I let my little cousins to play. I heard that they keep playing Micheal Jackson's Beat It about more than 10 times... -_-|||

* Super taste CNY special
After we finish with "posing and modeling", we all sit at living room watched TV show "Super Taste CNY Special" on astro channe; 317. That show is about traveling and food. For CNY special, they introduce about Malaysia~ They shop at grocery, then suddenly they point at "黑王"(my uncle own that company) White Coffee~!! We all shout so loud when we saw that scene.

* "开斎" - Finish of vegetarian period
Every year, at 12.00 a.m. we will eat spicy soup. I really don't know what it call in English... It taste spicy and a bit sour. Fist day of CNY, we all are vegetarian, so after 12.00 a.m. we all free from that and eat that soup(that soup got lots of meat).
