A happy trip :)

We headed over to Cherating for 3 days 2 nights, the day after the end of my exams :) We left KL at about 12pm and arrived at our resort at 3.30pm..


*our resort*


Checked in and found out that our room was a junior suite! With awesome sea view.


And the first thing that greeted us when we opened the door of our suite was a big ass huge mirror. Omigawd awesome much? :D




*our room :D*

*bathroom was as big as our room! awesome! and we had 2 bathrooms sumoree :D*



*tiny mini kitchen*

*living room*

We had 2 balconies.. One in the living room and the other in the bedroom. The living room was overlooking the sea and the beach, while the bedroom was overlooking the swimming pool. Awesome view man. And our balconies was damn big.. Like twice the size of a normal standard room :P

*view from 1st balcony*


*and view from 2nd balcony*

After putting all our bags, we headed out for food cause we were all starving. There were lots of malay food stalls at the roadside but most of it were closed, so we simply ate at any place which was opened. The food there were not as good as the ones we ate after that haha..


*kangkung belacan and ayam masak kicap*

*tomyam chicken*
This is cheating tomyam! Its just hot water with some tomyam leaves. Yucks not nice
Food was damn cheap man. Lol its about rm7 average per person each meal.


On the way back to our resort, we saw many many small stalls selling keropok lekor and so we assumed that keropok lekor is famous there. So we stopped by and bought a few to share.



*keropok lekor goreng*
Hmmm its okay only la..Dont really like it lo. Tasted tooo fishy


and this is the most disgusting thing I've ever seen. Steamed keropok lekor. Yucks man..Looks so slimy and shitty. I have no idea why sooo many people were queuing up for these and not the goreng ones


After that, we wanted to go back to our hotel but somehow we passed by ClubMed Cherating and we had this random idea to try to get in to see how awesome the place is.

So we drove up to the guard house and......

Us
Guard

Errr is this ClubMed? We want to check if there is any rooms available today.
Oh, do you have any reservations?
No, thats why we want to check whether theres any room availabilities.
Cannot la..You have to make online reservations and book before coming.
But we don't have internet.. How to book
*p/s: lamest excuse ever HAHAA we were damn random k*
I'm sorry, we can't let you in if you do not have room reservations.

So saddddd :((( Access denied :(((




We went back to our room and had our keropok lekor and after that, headed over to the beach.



*no beach shot is complete without and awesome jump shot :D*

After the beach, we went back to our room and all of us bathed and then headed out for dinner. We did some research online to find out what are the good food available near our hotel before going out so that we wouldnt get cheated again like the first meal.


Headed over to Pak Su Seafood which was like 5 minutes drive from our hotel.

*ayam masak sweet and sour*

*telur bistik*
this was damn good. Loved it ;D

*and Kailan with ikan masin*

*also, we ordered ikan siakap bakar to share among us* RM25

Food that night was good. At least everything tasted nice and the portion was acceptable. The ikan bakar was goood too, and for that price, I guess its reasonable.

After dinner, we had our little adventure. This little adventure led us all the way into another state, Terengganu. Haha yes we drove all the way to Terengganu just to get to the nearest 7-11 , which our most faithful GPS guided us there. And after locating our 7-11, we were so confident that we will get our alcohol for the night, but nooo. Not even a single alcoholic drink in sight. :( No booozie for the night.. So sad =(( So we were left with Sprite to drink in our hotel :(


Went back and wanted to have few rounds of Monopoly Deal but it failed. Because I was freaking tired that the minute I saw the comfy bed, I collapsed straightaway till the next morning HAHA. And we wanted to wake early in the morning to watch the sunrise but that failed too, cause I was too lazy to get up. LOL :D Sleeping is my world, it's what I do best ;P


Day 2

Finally woke up at around 9am I guess.. :P And everyone got ready to go out and have breakfast.






*Cafe 619* for breakfast. Located directly opposite our hotel.

*My nasi lemak ayam*
Which I think gave me diarrhea :((

*Teh Tarik*



And after breakkie, off we went to the Turtle Sanctuary located nearby.





We were told that we can come back and watch the turtle laying eggs at midnight. So after exploring the place abit, we left.. But unfortunately, when we came back at midnight, the guide told us that today was low tide so there were no turtles :( aww so sad :(


After that, we went for another small adventure. We went searching for other chalets around. Which are mostly for budget people or backpackers.

*one of the chalets*
Damn small and the room looks dirty plus the toilets are like yucks @@

Then we discovered a restaurant there and decided to have lunch.



*Thai Tomyam*

*Claypot Bean Curd*

*Vege in Oyster Sauce*
Yums this was good! :D

*Sweet & Sour Fish Fillet*


*Butter Fried Chicken*
This is one of the best chicken I've ever eaten. Like seriously. Damn damn good hehe



And we discovered a better beach, just near the place we were eating lunch. The water was so blue and much nicer than the beach at our resort :) So after eating, we headed down to the beach again! :D


*awesome clean water! :D*






We were totally sweating like shit because of the super hot sunny weather.. So after we were done with the pictures taking, we headed back to the hotel and as usual, I died on the bed again. For like half an hour then we headed down to the pool for a swim :)

After swimming, all of us went back to the room and bath and wanted to head out for dinner. But just as we were heading out, I had to go to the toilet and then something happened. I broke the upper cover of the toilet bowl by accident and *glass breaking sound* ..Glass was everywhere and I was like errr shit ? @@


Called the hotel people and while waiting for them to arrive, we were worrying of how much they will charge us for the damage I did. They came with a camera and took pictures of the scene and made me fill in a guest statement form. And when I was expecting them to tell me the price I had to pay, they said

"Its okayy.. Accidents do happen. We will offer you another room. Don't worry its also a suite. It's just next door. Come, have a look at the new room"

And we were like....errr okie :DD Such nice people man omgg!!They didnt even charge us plus offered us another suite some more. Didn't even downgrade our room :P


*our new suite..which was just next door :P*
Room 244 and 245. We stayed in both :P Thanks to me! :D


*more romantic bed! ;D*

*ooohh and a lcd tv tooo :D*


That night, our dinner was at Warung Awang Ikan Bakar. The seafood there was sooo cheap omg!




*Watermelon and Orange juice*

*Ayam Masak Merah*

*Telur Bungkus*

*Stingray Ikan Bakar* 2 of this fish for only rm10!

*Sotong Goreng Tepung* this was rm10 too


Dinner was done and we went back to the hotel, wanted to have Monopoly Deal but same thing happened. I fell asleep waiting for them to get ready. LOL sorrrrrrrrrrry :P


Day 3

Next morning, woke up at around 9 am too and packed up and got ready to check out of our hotel.









We were heading towards Kuantan Town. But on the way there, we saw this and stopped :)


*Coconut! :DDD*

*Best drink ever when the weather is hot*

*and also, Pisang Goreng*


Continued our journey to Kuantan, and our next destination was to go to Gua Charas. Which we took 30minutes to find it. It was like hidden inside an oil palm plantation and we managed to find the place all thanks to the GPS. Hahaha wanted to give up and turn back already but luckily we didnt :P






*steps to go out* Super steep and scary @@


*Saw puppies on the way up...SOOOOOO CUTE AWWW XD*


*There was a sleeping buddha inside a big cave, halfway before reaching the peak of the cave*







Reached the peak which was awesome nice..

The climb down the cave was a breeze, compared to climbing up. But my legs were already shaking like it was gonna give way anytime soon. However, I still managed to go all the way down in 1 piece. Hehe :)


Drove back to Kuantan town after that, and on the way out, we saw cows. Nothing special bout cows just that this cow has a white head and a black body. So coooool and weird? :P


*Say hello to my friend :D*


We were in Kuantan Town going round and round and round, just to search for a restaurant but after an hour, we gave up and suddenly we passed by KFC. All of us was starving so we decided that its KFC for lunch. Lol so random lo. But at least we had awesome view from that KFC ;P



*the view of the beach from where we were sitting in KFC*
Nice right!

*Headed down to the beach after we were done with KFC*








After the beach, it was time to go home. Back to KL. We were speeding all the way home because I was supposed to get home by 7.30pm and we only left that place at 5pm @@

I was half awake and half asleep during the whole journey. Lol woke up sometimes to talk to the driver so he doesn't get sleepy :P


Funny stuffs happened on the way back like we had no petrol. Like seriously the petrol tank was empty and the next rest house was like 20km away. Lol so we made lots of funny jokes XD


And and and on the way back we saw FIRE. A car on fire!!

We passed right beside the car and the heat that the fire was giving out was superrrr intense heat!! Lol hopefully nothing happened to the driver.


Got home at around 9pm and I bathed and died on my bed straight.

Overall it was a really really enjoyable trip and now I am so looking forward to my Perhentian trip in 2 weeks time :)

The amount of pictures we took was mad alot :P We did turtle watching which failed, tried to sneak into ClubMed but we got denied in!!! Damn funny how we tried to talk the guard into letting us in. HAHAA and we did exploring around the whole village.


We even drove so far away from our hotel that we crossed the border over to Terengganu trying to search for boooozie..because Cherating is a malay village so there is no booooozie around and the same goes for Terengganu.Noooo.. No alcohol for us :( Only Sprite :(((


And today we went to climb Gua Charas! haha I survived it! I reached the peak. I shud have been given a certificate of accomplishment! LOL XD Because I dont usually exercise so its like so impossible for me to reach the peak :P

I smell freeeedom! :)

Yes, its all over finally! I am finally freee of stress for one whole month which I plan to not do anything and just go on holidays! And maybe work once ;P then rot at home watching my dramas.. Muaahahahaha :D Finally I do not have to worry about my studies when I'm eating, when I'm sleeping, when I'm doing practically everything.


After the last paper today, my classmates and I headed over to pyramid to celebrate! Haha not really celebrate, just didnt wanna go home so early. So we shopped around for awhile then we had dinner at Gardens Lifestyle Cafe.


*my Nasi Lemak*
Portion was really big. Taste wise was just normal. And this cost me rm16
expensive @@


*Devi, Amie*

*Ker Min, Mun, Amanda*


*the rest of them joined us later :P*






After that, hehe I had Chatime! Ordered the Chocolate Hazelnut Milk Tea with Pearls


Not nice :( Tasted like diluted milo with pearls. Bleh Cher is right, they do not have quality control lo. Sometimes its damn good, sometimes it sucks :(



Then had 2nd round dinner :)


*porridge!*

*pork porridge!!:D*
It was good! Hehe I'm seriously not a fan of porridge because my mum cooks "not-so-nice" porridge which makes me hate eating porridge because I always thought that all porridge taste like my mum's. Haha this porridge changed my mindset :P


And right after dinner, we had 3rd round. Yamcha at Old Town opposite Pyramid with Cher and the bf. Muahahaha I know we are mad :P

Such a happy day. Plus tomorrow going off to Cherating! :D


Got to go pack my stuffs soon! So goodnight people!

Bye!

Hehe air tickets already bought, hotel already booked..Now just waiting for the day to arrive. Anyway thanks so much dear for paying half my air ticket for me. I really really appreciate it alot.
