finally, I managed to take a break, though a short one only. its ok, at least la. Perak was de destination. had been planning bout de trip for about a month but cudnt get to set de date as we were busy with our own commitments.
so I had a wonderful & memorable 4-days trip to Perak, from 10-13 June.
I went there with Bestie Luthfie & Aida, along with double-H & Mr.Teacher-LH. Aida & Luth, thank u sooo much for bein able to make urself free for detrip. if not, I wont be able to go as well bcoz Mama wont let me to.
de 3-guys took their turn to drive all de way to Ipoh. it was a long journey, full stop. we had fun on our way there with de singings, jokes, etc. u guys are fun!
and before I move on, I wanna thank dat Perak-man AKA my tour guide (his family as well who were in Ipoh when we visited) for all their helps, guidance & many more during our 4-days there. he made our trip smooth. thank u again, dude! I appreciate it lots & yeah, I fulfilled my promise to u that is to visit u soon. I did! :)
HE wanted us to stay at his apartment but we refused. his parents & brothers were there visiting him so it wont be nice ryte, so why dont let them have their own space & time as a family. HIS parents persuaded us that they are fine even if we are there but still, we decided to check-in to de hotel. taknak susahkan auntie & uncle. we appreciate de offer so much though. and I felt so touched with their warm treatment to us. thank u again.
thn he recommended us de hotel at Jalan Sultan Abdul Jalil. it is called Syuen Hotel. a 4-star hotel. and Double-H said de hotel is good. okla, ape2 aje. we chose de 2-room Executive Suite which costed RM 900/day. we decided to share de bill equally and well, a deal! but I didnt pay anythg since HE gave me de money to pay my share bcoz in my past trips, I stayed at his place so this time he felt that he needed to pay coz he was unable to provide me a roon in his place. thank u, my hottie.
de unit has 2-bedrooms (there are toilets in both), living room & another toilet. yeah good choice, Hen. it was much better instead of booking 2 different rooms. so me&Aida shared a room while de guys shared de another 1. de RM900/day was worthy coz de services were 1ST CLASS! everythg is complete there.
it was a real headache sharing de unit with de guys, OMG, 3 is like 30. futhermore when HE joined us too during that 1-night. perangai macam budak2 seh semua! I & Aida were like, sabar jela. boys will always be boys. ;) and 'DE BEST STUPIDEST' thing was when they shocked me&Aida when we just came back frm a nearby pasar-malam. they hid in de wardrobe. GILA LA KORANG. PADANLA ALL 4 OF THEM LOVE-PARTNERS TAK MELEKAT LAMA, MASIH BUDAK2 RUPANYE! HAPPY KUTUK KORANG PASAL I KNOW U GUYS WILL READ IT. LOL.
I love de hotel's facilities. swimming pool with built-in Jacuzzi, steam bath, SPA, squash court & foot reflexology. all these located at de last floor, which is de 11th floor.
I pampered myself at de SPA with de relaxing massage, swimming like mad at de pool (lucky I didnt suffer any cramp) .. tak serik2 la aku ni ;). I showed my wonderful skill to them in Squash, REALLY, i can play it well. had fun playing it but I'm stil unhappy that I still failed to beat double-H even after 4-attempts. yeah Hen, its ok to be de looser but my game was fair-play, unlike urs. haha! thn I went 4 de reflexology sessions whnver after xploring Ipoh or de city around it. hehe, it was fun, really fun.
this hotel is de only 1 in Ipoh that has a HALAL restaurant whch is called de Silver Boat Restaurant. de foods there were YUMMY-LICIOUS. tak terkata sedapnye! frm seafood to local dishes to western, all were nice! worth every single-cent that we paid.
@ the lobby there is a lounge whch is called EMERGENCY BAR. haha, ape2 ajela kawan2 aku tu gelak kan nama lounge tu, me too actually. LOL. nice place to chill esp with de live pieces of music form de Pianist, really peaceful. de snacks, pastries & cakes served there were tasty as well. esp de mocha cake! OMG, soooooo nice. despite de fun we were having, me&Aida already warned de guys STRICTLY NO ALCOHOL YA bcoz both of us were fully alert on how bad things could be when they are drunk. so better remind them before anythg unwanted happen. thumbs up to LH for bein a non-alcoholic person! good!
during my 4-days stay, I noticed that anyone who come to Ipoh/Perak, will nvr die of hunger becoz FOODS ARE EVERYWHERE.
for fast-food lovers, there are Pizza Hut, KFC, McD, A&W.
there are many pasar malam whch open till early morning to fulfil ur cravings. so if u feel hungry even after midnight, dont worry, u can grab ur quick-bites frm de nearby pasar malam. pilih je nak makan yg mana.
there are many coffee house as well. and there r few whch open till 2am.
there are restaurants as well. be it Indian, Chinese, Malay, Western, Italian, etc.
not forgetting de along de streets road-side stalls which provide u de local dishes.
SO, U WILL BE SPOILT OF CHOICES.
before I forget, thank u to HIS mum for inviting us for lunch at HIS place. she cooked all de meals by herself. de foods were YUMMY. dont worry auntie, all of us kalau pasal makan, takkan tolak punye.
her RENDANG TOK was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS seh. even my mum's couldnt beat her's.
LAKSA ASAM, haha my 1st time trying. TOTALLY DIFFERENT from de 1 that use coconut milk. hehe, when I told Mama, she said tu LAKSA PENANG la, ape nye orang perempuan ni. well Mama, u know who ur daughter is, right?
ROJAK, more like GADO-GADO tapi, nice as well .. :)
and few other local dishes too.
ENAK!
thank u again auntie for cooking all de foods for us & thank u uncle for goin 2 de market to buy de stuffs.
thank u for welcoming all of us open-heartedly though de guys were like DUGONG!
to HIM (I know HE'll read), thanks again ya. and I appreciate our movie-date so much. and excuse my retarded frens for teasing u non-stop. well, I know u r fine with all that, kan. de 4-hrs we spent together was great & meaningful. I enjoy ur company.
I promise to visit u again soon, maybe as soon as end of de month (NOT CONFIRM YET) .. ok ok next time I will nt give any excuse on not to stay at ur place. ;)
i shall end here .. has been a very long entry ..
*will upload de pics soon k. I have too many stuffs to settle including my 3000-words essay*
