Season confused.

Assalamualaikum,
It's been a while that i haven't post anything since the last two weeks. I won't say that I'm busy but just not having the right mood to post something. Lately, the temperature in this Kampung Plymouth has been unpredictable. Sekejap boleh hujan really heavily and it can rain all day long and some days it   turned out to be sunny and really nice to go hang out doing some activities outside. I bet that we are still in winter mode but the day before yesterday turn out to be not quite chilly, it's 10 celcius. Not the ordinary chilly temperature for winter I guess. Pelik betol dengan temperature kat sini, kadang2 boleh jd agak warm, kadang2 tu sejok melampau. Macam kelmarin nyer temp 13 celcius, ingatkan cuaca dah nak panas la tup-tup semalam bila keluar rumah ingatkan x sejok sangat tengok2 0 degree la plak. Ces, memang kalau nak keluar wajib tengok weather forecast spy boleh consider dulu betol2 berapa lapis baju nak pakai. Cuaca sejok ni memang la bukan menjadi favorite saya. The cold temperature made you feel lazy and just wanna hibernate under the cozy duvet la selalunye. Even nak jalan pon malas, nak pegi kelas pon rase terpaksa je. 
Teringat la plak masa I went traveling in the midst winter ari tu. I really felt depressed bcoz all you can see is white.Everything is covered with white colour. Everything you see around you looks dull and boring. Memang la dapat pengajaran bila pegi travel time winter ni. Dah la penat meredah snow satu, sejok dah plok satu, lagilah seksa kalau nak pakai all those heavy layers of clothes. Like these pictures I've taken below; all are in white, just seems motionless and dull, tambah2 ni German, negara yg memang dah sejok. Memang la pegi cari nahas tempat orang musim2 sejok ni, macam la Kampong Plymouth ni x cukup sejok yer...hhehhe


No greens detected!


Ni pon white jugak


The houses and lands were covered in thick snow.
From bird's eye view.


The place below is called Mirabell Garden, a place where it was featured in the film The Sound of Music in late 50's I guess. This place actually sitauated in Austria but German. Boleh katakan macam sempadan Siam dengan Malaysia la Salzburg ni. Ala... macam pegi Sungai Golok la gamaknyer kalau kat Malaysia. Unfortunately for me, I couldn't see the beauty of the garden as it was all covered with snow. I can only enjoy the view of the building instead but that's okay la. Tp syukur Alhamdulillah sbb dah sampai kat Salzburg ni jadilah.



 The Mirabell Garden actually supposed to look like this in Sping/Summer


Below are the pictures that I managed to take along my journey in Dachau, some 20+ minutes from Munich. Here, I managed to visit The Dachau Concentration Camp where all Jews dikumpulkan sebelum dibunuh. Ni masa pemerintahan Hitler dulu nyer, sekarang dah x lagi. At this time mind you the suhu is really cold, -14 celcius. Dengan tabahnya kami berjalan in heavy snow to tawaf the camp...hohoho sejok sampai ke tulang. Tp lucky for me bcoz before I went to this camp I've watch a movie about the camp and the movie is called The Boy In a Stripped Pyjama and I kinda know sedikit sebanyak what actually happened there,  so tak la rase macam sia2 je pegi x tau ape2 sbb sebenarnye agak bosan berjalan kat kem ni coz there's nothing really interesting for us who doesn't really know their history.








All you can see is the colour white.




Tak sabar rasenyer nak tunggu Spring sebab boleh tengok all the flowers blooming merrily everywhere..hihiiihii.Gambar ni pon saya ambik masa first datang Kampong Plymouth dulu, in midst Autumn. Cantikkan kaler dia, terang benderang gitu merahnya.

On 'winter holiday', 'sudden fever' and malang bertimpa-timpa

Assalamualaikum...


It's been a while since I last posted an entry. Dah aritu pon ucap new year bukan main terlewat lg. Saya ingatkan lepas pos pasal new year nyer lewat boleh la sambung nulis on the next day but unfortunately sth else happened.On the second day after I arrived from Ireland, I was hit with a sudden fever. Punyalah trajis bcoz this is the first time I experienced fever on foreign land alone. Time ni lah teringat kat mak sama bapak kat rumah. Memang habis Hwaaahwaaa dah masa tu. Dudok sorang2 dalam bilik bawah duvet rase sedih gler kot. Huuhuhu punyelah terkenang saat manis demam kat rumah dulu (demam pon manis ke?) bila semua benda mak jaga,nak makan itu ini semua gerenti ada.Mak siap picit2 badan lg...tidakkkk!!! Sadis sungguh, lepas tu cerita x habis takat tu ajer, dalam pada demam tu saya kene pulak hantar assignment in two days time which is today!! Then I yang x punye kekuatan to work ni pon kerje lah bersungguh-sungguhnye sikit demi sikit to finish that thing. That was the baddest assignment I have ever experienced lah rasenyer. Luckily there is one my housemate who's baik enough to prepare my meal once a day. I pon makan lah hasil masakan dia tu pagi petang sampai malam dan keesokan harinyer..Sadis..To add more tragic to the story,last night something that never happen suddenly happen in our house. Rumah saya bocor semalam tepat2 pukol 7 ptg mase all ppl were ready to press gear 5 nak buat assignment ni. Punyelah huru-hara jadinyer. We all then called the maintenance nyer pakcik to fix it. Kat sini x yah risau maintenance officer hidop 24 hours so the pakcik came right after we called him then he gave us a bad news la pulak. He couldn't find the source of leakage and need to shutdown the water and heater at the same time for last night. Memang la malang sungguh semalam. Mmg hidop merana la xde air, kalau heater tu okay lagi sbb kitorang ade portable heater boleh plug in and pasang jer. Oleh sbb air adalah basic neccesities,we all had to mintak tolong our neighbour to let us pinjam diorang nyer toilet untok semlam. Luckily our neighbours are good people then kitorang apelagi serbu diorang nyer toilet untk melepaskan hajat..hiihih. Baik sungguh diorang sampai x kunci pintu rumah malam2 sbb takut kitorang g nak tumpang tandas. Sampai subuh pg tadi pon pintu rumah diorang x kunci lg. I really thank them for letting us use their toilet early in the morning despite they tired of their own bussiness, (mind you all five of them are non-muslim but still they are really baik)


 Ok now I will write sikit pasal saya punyer cuti aritu. Best la jugak g jalan kan tp yg x best nyer bilag jalan masa winter ni ialah the snow itself. For me la, bila tengok tengok the snow is all over the place, saya rase depress la. Bcoz the surrounding is all white. The surrounding become dark and gloomy and another thing is the day become a lot shorter and we need to really rush to go here and there before the place close at night (4.30 pm dah pon night) Betapa pendeknye siang itu. Haritu saya sempat g melawat BMW punyer showroom mase kat Munich. Punyelah smartnyer la kereta2 tu. Memang la x mampu kot nak pakai sebijik kalu setakat government servant macam saya ni. That's ok la if x dapat pakai, bergaya ngan BMW dalam showroom pon dah cukop dah.Jadi sini nak letak la sikitnyer gamba si lobang hidong luas yg menjadi pojaan hatiku ini...hihihi
The building with rice bowl beside it
Yellow is very elegant


Power of Dreams




Silver pon bergaya


Si hidung merah menyala

Happy Belated New Year

Assalamualaikum...


The actual day of new 2011 year dah 5 hari pon lepas dah. Seems like I'm the only one who's left behind. Actually I've got got back from my 14 days journey. Feels like a lame vegetable dah my whole body ni. Mmg penat sungguh berjalan ni. The fact of going places is very fun what want to cater a lot of places is fuiyoo mmg penat. Sepanjang 14 hari in this winter break I got a chance to wander around three countries basically in EU. My first stop would be Scotland, neighbouring country je ngan my tempat belajar which is England. Then my next stop was German then the last one was Ireland. The all 3 countries are wonderful in their own way. Basically tonight I wont say much about the journey but rather want to greet this blog of mine a happy new year even though it's 5 days late..huihuiii. This year I didn't got to box well on Boxing Day cos I was not in the right place to box bcos on that day, I was still in Scotland attending a camp like program in Lapwing Lodge. Punyelah sejok tempat tu mmg x mandilah we all that reside there for 4 days.
 I think that enough for the express greeting for today. I will write about my journey starts tommorow...hhehehe
