Getaway to Gold Coast (1) - Tanjung Sepat

Yeah! Jeff promised to bring me out and play after our final exam. He had bought a voucher from Groupon to Gold Coast Water Theme Park Hotel at Morib. We are running away from the city to Morib when everyone else is starting on new semester :p I have been researching for this trip after final and read through many reviews for tips to plan a perfect trip for us!

A cow crossing the road. There were more of them than us
so we gotta let then go first ain't we :P

We were going there from Nilai, which is using the KLIA route as we would go Tanjung Sepat first before Gold Coast Morib resort. We got lost in someway middle because of me T_______T but soon back on the right track. Departing by 10am, we reach Tanjung Sepat in one and half hour. I like to travel along these villages road instead of highway as it brings a real sensation of holiday :) There were many cows along the roadside as we were nearer to Tanjung Sepat. I felt more relaxed as we enter into small towns and village areas. The trees and grass are so lovely, skies are blue, cows are skinny and lazy. I thought cows are very hardworking! We often hear that in kid stories :) I was very happy to escape from the city life before starting a new semester. 

Passing by Sungai Pelek town

We planned to visit dragon fruit farm if we arrived early. However we didn't visit it after all because we went passed the entrance of the street directly and only realised it after 5km faraway as we reached Tanjung Sepat town. :P the kampung street is really narrow so we decided to park our car outside and walk the entire village. It was proved a wrong choice in the end because the weather was really hot later in the afternoon and le bf got sunburn :( so kesian, gotta sayang him. Me? I'm fine, I'm a little Indian, sunshine is nothing to me rofl. 

My main destinations are all about FOODs. First, we went to this Hai Yew Heng Pau shop for buns. I heard their buns finished very quickly and I didn't want to miss it. The shop was opened but steamed pau were not ready yet, they are still in the midst of making pau. :( So we walked over to Kwo Zha B for coffee beans. The shop assistant guy was very friendly. He explained to us the process of making coffee beans and showed us processing coffee beans in different stages. They have a small machine of stirring/frying coffee beans as the photo on the right. We cannot make our mind whether to buy the coffee so we decided to look around first. 

We decided to take photos with these signboard once and for all as
I don't want to go every shop and stand at their front door to take photo.
I'm a shy kid. :P

We then walk around the street and saw another coffee bean factory in house which I forgot the name. Non-stop taking photos there (in the middle of the road!). Saw temples and people are burning huge incense sticks. Probably some local festivals. 

Later we decided to go back to the pau shop for a rest while waiting for fresh steamed pau ♥ The pau shop has a new building opposite the old fashioned kopitiam, which kopitiam was the original pau shop for customers to dine in; the new building is air-conditioned for aunties to make delicious pau in a cooling environment. Tourist may eat pau and with cofee from Kwo Zha B coffee seller. It was very hot so we ordered some cold drink first while waiting for the paus to be ready. The uncle there kept promoting their fish balls and glutinous rice wine to us. They gave us two spoons of the wine to try. Jeff didn't like it, I think it was okay. Tasted slightly sour.  We bought a pack of fish balls to eat too. It was al dente and fresh but I dislike the taste of its fried skin as it tasted bitter to me. 

Having my cool barley juice while reading the articles introducing Tanjung Sepat.

Took down a simple map of Tanjung Sepat for easy reference of tour later. 

Finally the fresh steamed pau is out after 30 minutes. We ordered a cup of coffee and tried the Mui Choy bun (梅菜包), bean paste bun (豆沙包) and the pork bun (生肉包). We loved Mui Choy pau the most! parfait Délicieux! Bean paste bun is nice too, quite different with those sold in the city but might be a little sweet for certain people. Coffee tasted great. We were supposed to share the coffee but ended up I drank most of it because babe was too slow to grab it hahah! After I finished he glared at me :p but burst out laughter when he saw my teeth full of coffee stains. We saw people carrying buns out from the stores packs by packs. Seems like each person buy at least 30 buns! o.o How many buns y'all eat per day omggggg. 

Greatest enjoy in the world to have Mui Choy Pau from Hai Yew Heng and coffee from Kwo Zha B. 

I have to question for the sole purpose of posting this image-ruining photo in Facebook at all. 

We chose not to buy our souvenirs first because we didn't want to carry that all our way while looking around. After lunch, we went to the lovers' bridge. Of course mah, kan we are lovers ♥ Cannot stop taking photos outside the local residents at all on our way to lovers' bridge. 

Nice roof decoration!

Green plantation in the house!

Good place for a neighbourhood chat after dinner. Usual thing in kampung. 

We were so excited to found this bike outside a house. It is so cool! With a roof some more.
Reminds me of the motorbike hanging with all those breads and snacks and drive along houses to sell.

Lucky us, it was high tide. (I don't like too see the dirty seashore so... ya lucky us) The seawater was, ewww..... muddy. You can see three colours of the seawater standing on the bridge. Nearest one is muddy brown, further away is greenish and it's deep blue far away. The was notice on the bridge's lamp pole warning tourist not to go on the bridge as the bridge structure is damaged. I think the mentioned bridge is the wooden bridge far ahead. However I was too worried that if they meant the whole bridge then I might be risking my life! So I didn't dare to go too far from the seacoast. Plus I'm also afraid that I would fall off the bridge for no reason then I'd be die of drowning. Stay in safezonesafezonesafezone. I'd feel awkward to die young in my vacation. Choichoichoi. It was extraordinary hot there because no shelter on the bridge.

Me and rubbish on the bridge. 

Le superstar bf. 

Le bf busy looking for seashell beside lovers' bridge. So cute ain't he ♥ 

I must express my sincere gratitude for this restaurant because I had a
sudden stomach cramp after lovers' bridge so went there to poop.  >____<

After that we went back to buy our coffee beans and some Mui Choy pau. We bought 5 packs of coffee powders from Kwo Zha B, which I think its coffee fragrance is strong. The shop assistant told us that the town would have a Chinese show like Beijing Opera on that night and we are welcome to watch. Owwwh thank you so much but I guessed we will be lazy after we got to our hotel hahah. We found out that the Mui Choy pau has been sold out :( It was within time of an hour after we ate our pau! Note that it was a Wednesday! Asdfghjkl. Weekday also sales so laku seriously. We disappointingly turned around. Within a second I decided to place an order so that on our way back tomorrow it's guaranteed that we have pau! We ordered for 18 Mui Choy bun and 2 bean paste bun. (Should've order more...)

No pau. :( 

No pau and we were melting. :(( 

No pau and we were melting and we gotta walk to car :((( 

No pau and we were melting and we gotta walk to car and car is far :(((( 

No pau and we were melting and we gotta walk to car and car is far and car is hot too :((((( 

I have planned to steamboat in our hotel room since I thought in the end we're gonna be lazy to drive out again to look for dinner. So we went to Yek Loong Enterprise to buy our steamboat ingredients. Everything made of fish paste! We bought some fish paste products for our dinner, each big pack only cost RM5! I wanted to buy yong taufu and chilies but they were not ready yet :/ After that we went to Ganofarm to buy Abalone mushroom. It's so nice to shop in air-conditioned building T__T (Grateful) If you notice, people went these place to visit and watch the factory processes but I went to buy food only and chiao. *facepalm*

Me at Yek Loong Enterprise buying fish-paste-products. 

Me with mushroom bigger than Prince frog. Felt like Alice in the Wonderland. 

Then we rushed to our accomodation - Gold Coast Morib Water Theme Park Resort. Oh before that we went to bought 2 eggs at nearby grocery shop for our steamboat. The shop owner looked at me curiously. Awkward in every way *blush*

-Stay tuned- If I ever continue writing

edu 2.0

I am utterly irritated by our constantly-changing-learning-management-system. It's only been less than a year since it moved from e-advantage to lms and it changed again now to edu2.0. Why can't you let us get our study material in peace! They have all different tabs for groups, search, chat, posts, etc. It is getting more and more similar to Facebook interface. 

D'you seriously  think that edu2.0 can replace part of Facebook functions among UCSI students - - 

It is good if our university are constantly seeking to improve. Yet, it is increasing the level of difficulty for fellow students to exercise their right and enjoy their privilege in accessing to news, information and most importantly the access to study materials. In short, IT IS BLOODY NOT USER FRIENDLY AT ALL. Why do you gotta make such a hassle for us students to get our notes! Now we even have to enter an access code before we could "enroll in a class" in edu2.0 in order to get our friggin' notes! Are you joking me? I sincerely want to know a sole purpose of doing this shit. IT department, please. Which idiot suggested this dramatic upgrade? I demand a very well supported explanation, oh no, I don't care at all, I demand e-advantage, where we could freely access to any course materials as long as we logged in our student ID. Why are you setting up so many restrictions? Why on earth do we need to go through all those barriers to get our notes of a few papers! Why make it like an amazing race? Can you not apply Running Man concept into our learning system?

Now, to get into the new system, you shall sign up for an account. BUT. You will need an access code to  sign up too. I guess it intentionally does not want us to involved in this edu2.0. Otherwise I could not think of a wise and logical reason of doing such nonsense.  

Look at this. The automatic-generated profile photo damn ugly ok?
Don't assume how I look like, please - -

Then, get enrolled into a online class to obtain your lecture slides. Now if you have an access code from your lecturer, you may just enter the access code and will shun-shun-li-li get into the group. Otherwise, you have to find your classes among all the below confusing categories in which accounting doesn't exist as one of the categories so you have to search for your subjects in either "finance" or "business", then they will show you that "you need an access code". H-A-H-A-H. 

Oh guess which category your subjects lies in? WTF

I feel being treated like a stupid monkey.

In the mood of no mood

Gahhh. I'm feeling.........'no good'. Not satisfied, no motivation and everything with a 'no' sums up to 'no good'.

I'm hungry, and upstairs. Too far away from food.
Just remembered we don't have ready-to-be-eaten-food in the house. Ugh.
No food that I call food. Boohoo.

And I saw this. DIY: Homemade Matte Nail Polish Reminds me of the trend once upon a time again which I then look it up in Tumblr. Asdfghjkl wrong decision. I'm now dying for it. :/

Simple dots makes amazing nails. 

Cute. Asdfghjkl.

I laughed at this. Imagine trolling people with this. Hahah so much fun.

Look at what people did with their nails and compare with what I did. 

NAIL OF THE DAY. SO NAISSSSS.
Tell me how do these people do their nails so nicely! GOSH. 

To make minds even more complicated, I was all on this in my mind for the entire week. Now I couldn't make up my mind to do which one since I now have two choices and only a pair of fingers with nails. No pedicure. I can't do it on my own with a fat tummy between my upper body and toes. Anyway it always get peeled off days after I done it so let us not waste the time and effort. 

Next I was looking on some fashion thing (which I never did) so that I have some improvement in fashion maybe? Ahh well I then came to a conclusion that I'd better stay off fashion because I'm not at all willing to spend that amount of money on fashion. 

What makes me frustrating is actually my Final Research Project outline. Omggggggasdfghjklqwertyuiopzxcvbnm what should I do with it. Accounting is such a wide yet limited scope. I hated business research method and I can't believe I'm gonna do the same research thingy again after such short period. I couldn't even remember what shit I've done in my business research method. GAHHHH. and I'm hungry now, which makes me even more frustrating. I tried to look into some articles like this and I ended up stalking old schoolmates, consequently procrastinating AGAIN. Deadline is this coming Friday and I need to get the thing done for my preferred supervisor to sign on it and she's everyone's bloody favored supervisor. AND I'M STILL PROCRASTINATING. wtf. The sole purpose of me starting my laptop today was to read some articles about it and see what I end up doing - -

God please help me on my Final Research Project. 

Let's jump on to something more cheering, at least to me. :) Le bf got me this from Aeon. 

More information about it:- "click me"

Eh how cool is that! I really wanted a nice lunch box set to put my love meal to my boy since ages. So when he asked what I wanted for my 21st birthday I said I want a lot of things and one out of it is lunch box. I didn't expect to get a heat-insulated one especially after I peeked on the price tag. GASP. You call that a price?! I wouldn't buy one myself for my entire life. Come back to this, we were looking it at Aeon, which bf thinks it's probably the best place to get a good one. Where else you could find this? I don't know so I had to agree, don't I? :) Some of it are really ugly, looks like those old fashion thermos flask my mum used to had. It was used to store hot water, which got warm and suitable to make milk for us when we were little kiddo. Like this:

Seriously? - - 

The one we got wasn't fully heat insulated. Only the big cylinder jar is heat-insulated, or half-heat-insulated maybe as it is separable so I kinda doubt on it's functionality. The other two mini food container is just normal food container. Oh did you notice that little bag? Yeah it's for me to place all containers into it, plus point, it comes with a pair of chopsticks and its casing. That bag is so cute that it looks like a camera bag. 

The food container come with this too! I know where to put soups now. Since it comes together, the food container makes me feel less expensive then. So we decided to buy this among all others as it fulfill all my requirements to fill foods basically. Thanks babe!
