Universal Studio Singapore Trip : Part 1

After more than one month of silence... i would like to update this blog of mine..sorry...:)..
Actually the trip was way back at the end of January (26th January to be exact) but i didn't have the time to update it here..even my third baby was not even there yet...hahha..so now it is.... it was organised by the my hubby's colleague so we joined by paying around RM550 included the entry ticket to the Universal Studio Singapore and the transport (bus).. We departed around 5 a.m from MPOB Keratong Staffquarters...... There was a misunderstanding about the time of departure as we were told we will leave at midnight but the bus came late.... well...fortunately everything went pretty smooth except for one incident (no need to tell ya!!) after that.....

After went through strict immigration checking from the Singapore part, we managed to arrive at USS at noon....sadly .we have wasted few hours there due to unavoidable problem....
cam-whoring while waiting for the correspondent to take the entry tickets...
If u have been here before...u must have known that this theme park was divided into few sections namely Madagascar, Far-Far away, The Lost World, Ancient Egypt, Sci-Fi City, New York and Hollywood...it was more or less named after the famous movies made by universal studios, right?? it looked like, at least to me, the theme park was designed in an oval form so that you would not miss any section without going pass them....our fun and adventure journey began with Madagascar...

We tried the water boat ride (Madagascar: A crate Adventure)..it was slow and safe ride for young children... there were not many rides or activities for young children..mostly they were designed for older children and adults...so if you plan to come here, it will be  best not to bring children under 5...or wait till they get a little older...if not..you will miss the chance getting into all sorts of fun the offered but babysit your children..like me....(sob...sob...) unless you bring your nanny along...
Madagascar: A crate Adventure - A river boat ride with state-of-the-art animatronics, digital projection and surround sound, all housed within the hull of a displaced cargo ship.

King Julien's Beach Party-Go-Round - A merry-go-round ride that is themed and decorated with all the characters of Madagascar.... and also the famous building of the far-far away land...
Next, we moved to the far-far away land where we experienced to watch two exciting and amazing shows (donkey live-An interactive live show using digital puppetery technology, which features Donkey entertaining and engaging guests in conversation in an intimate theatre setting and Shrek's 4-D adventure - A 3-D stereoscopic show with added physical effects that is based on the story of Shrek and his quest to save Princess Fiona). These were the best i experienced along my trip there!!!! 

There were so many mascots along the way, but my children easily get intimidated by them so i did not put any effort to take pics with them...see..i've told you...wait till the children a little bit older..

And another piece of advice.. if u plan to bring younger children..do bring your stroller....the theme park distance  is way beyond younger children walking capabilities....here is the proof..

after been walking quite a distance, they even throw tantrums....
 Well, I bet this is too much of a story in a post... so stay tune for this trip part 2!!!!

Kuala Lumpur Trip Day 2

Day 2 of my journey to the west..click here for entry of day 1... i stayed at my aunt's until my hubby fetched me up after the award ceremony..Around 4, we were ready to bid goodbye to my aunt and her 3 darlings...

my kids with aunt's youngest daughter (orange) 

We were still in the mood of hanging around Selangor, so not to miss the opportunity to go to the book fair everyone talked about, we headed to The Mines... Yup, we went to the Big bad Wolf.... My sister did mentioned about how cheap books can be here, so we went there to witness it ourselves... i bought a novel, a series of dummies collection of photo-editing books and few books for uzair and qalesya.... books which usually quite expensive in bookshop were sold as cheap as RM8.. have u been there??? You should not miss it.....


Right after that, we went to bangi for our dinner ..my hubby brought us to this one place called Gearbox warung Dusun....and of course, their speciality is on gearbox soup..so we tried it and not really to my liking.....but when i looked around, most of them had gearbox soup on the table...


The food we ordered!!
 Then we went home.. reached home at about 1 a.m...That's the end of our journey in kuala lumpur....

Journey to the west - day 1

Feeling bored staying at home.. As soon as i heard hubby got to attend and award ceremony at MPOB headquarters, bangi.. Btw, Mr hubby was awarded with excellent service award... Congratulation, sayang.... (Don't forget about my portion ye..)... My heart bloomed..hehhe.... that was the signal that i was waiting for.. a chance to flee from the routine at home...Yup, i tagged along....

We departed around 9 a.m last Sunday from home....After a few hours drive, we reached our first stop... Sungai wang plaza.. We parked our car there and walked to Low Yat Plaza...... Actually, we just wanted to see the famous plaza where people always say that we can buy the gadgets with remarkably low prices....and we ended up buying a cheap tab - produced locally.... just for qalesya to play games without having her to ask for my phone all the times!!!



the tab!!
By the time we walked out of the plaza, its already 6 p.m. so we had our tea at the mamak's in front of the plaza ( I forgot the restaurant name)... and we headed to my aunt's at ULu Langat..we spent a night there...

 Stay tune for day 2, k!!!
Till then...

Yassin recitation event

Yassin is undoubtedly one of the great surahs of the Qur’an; its reading is considered to be highly beneficial and spiritually rewarding. It is important to memorize the entire surah; it is also important to read it as often as one can, and more especially, while attending those who are nearing death.

Being very familiar to the felda settlement scene, Yassin recitation ceremony is often conducted in the community....Be it once a week, monthly basis....The residents take turn to organize the ceremony at their home... I'm sure many of you have done this countless times.... Just a sharing how the ceremony was done at my in-law's place...

It was held  last Friday morning..... This event was meant for women from the same block (felda settlement is divided into blocks, a block may varies on numbers of houses, in my in law's cases, the block contains around 24 houses.) Usually, food is served after the Yassin recitation but it is not compulsory..It really depends on the house owner.... my SIL made mee rebus that day....

Yassin recitation

Abundance of food
Usually, people do not come empty-handed...They bring along kuih, puddings and even packets of sugar to give to the house owner..... That's what makes the abundance of food... They can even tapau the extra food to bring home..

Eating time.....
Till then.....
