Rebak Island Getaway!!

Thanks to Uncle Zahar & Aunty Rozie, I went to Rebak Island for a short getaway on June 5th-8th with the whole family – Uncle Zahar, Aunty Rozie, cousins Ekha, Kaina, Shana, An, grandma (Mak), brother (Abang Awin) and sis-in-law (Kak Ann).

Rebak Island is an island off Langkawi Island. To get to Rebak, we took the boat from a small jetty, located more or less 5 minutes away from the Langkawi International Airport. The boat ride took us around 15minutes to reach the breathtaking Rebak Island.

See Shana’s face in above pict – the face of a person who ‘lost’ her BB. Ok, Shana, i need to admit. It was funny since Ekha acted real good! Haha.

I don’t really have a lot of thing to tell during the holiday. Just have a look at some of the picture of the place, ok. Oh, the place we stayed at was the Taj - Rebak Island Resort.

2010_06_05_8293I missed kayak so much, that I’m happy that we get to kayak there.

Since there were not many people around, it makes the kayaking more fun! But, to have to team-up with Shana means you need to get yourself to work harder. Shana suka curik tulang, duduk belakang tau la I tak nampak!! :P

Plus, look……

…she bullied me… :’(

The next day we were there, we get to cycle around, played indoor games i.e ping-pong, archery (yeahh most of them try to beat Robin Hood so badly, but, well, you know..), and spend the time at the beach. Very chillaxing!

Rebak Island is indeed a nice place to go, to spend the leisure time out of the busy life once in a while. Well, at least i think so since I was tired of reading and writing. But hmmm… now I am here back in the campus, and need to write and write again.

Thank you so much again Uncle, Aunty & the whole family for the trip, and for making the trip fun!! *hugs & kisses*

Teater Muzikal Teratak Minang

iyaa.. post ini post yg sangat sepatutnya sudah lama di update, tp x terbuat2. dah sebulan dah tgk teater ni, pd 2 Mei 2010. huhuu

dlm post ‘Siapa Lagi Nak Sayang Budaya dan Tradisi Kalau Bukan Kita, Kan?’ ada sebut kat situ psl teater ni secara ringkasnya.

Teater muzikal bukan baru dalam industri teater kat Malaysia ni. dari cerita se-tradisional Sri Mersing, se-agung Puteri Gunung Ledang, se-moden Cuci, juga teater kanak-kanak Taman Baginda. Kebanyakan teater yang dibintangi artis-artis terkemuka, pasti hebatlah sambutannya.

Teater Teratak Minang tak dibintangi oleh nama-nama yang terlalu hebat dalam bidang teater Malaysia, hanya nama-nama seperti Ebby Yus, Leez AF4, Mak Nani dan Razali Buyung. Teater hasil gabungan Malaysia-Indonesia ini uga menampilkan artis dari seberang seperti Hengky Zubir dan Nadia Putri.

Tetapi, kekuatan teater ini terletak pada barisan penyanyi-penyanyinya, seperti Elly Kassim & Eddy Silitonga dari Indonesia juga Mastura & Ally Noor dari Malaysia. Mungkin nama-nama ini tak biasa didengari, tapi bagi peminat lagu2 Minang, pasti sekali dengar dah tahu siapa mereka.

Mainan muzik yang diketuai oleh Pak Ngah a.k.a Shuhaimi Mohd Zain sangat bestt!! Sesape yang suka lagu2 tradisional, konfem terhibur dengan alunan muzik yang dimainkan.

Lagu yang didendangkan sepanjang teater merupakan lagu2 Minang Negeri Sembilan & Minang Padang yang terkenal seperti Ayam Deh Lopeh, Ubekkan Denai, Bugih Lamo, Kaparinyo dan my most favourite Minang Song, Badinding (Tari Indang)! :D

Kebetulan hari tu hari terakhir, Malam Gala, turut dihari oleh Dato Seri Utama Rais Yatim. Elly Kassim menjemput Puan Seri Utama berduet dendangkan lagu Ubekkan Denai pada penutup teater. Not bad! ;p

Oh, masa teater tu jugak, ada seorang jejaka telah berjaya menawan hatikuuuu!!
Diperkenalkan……  

DSC06509

Rustam Rusdi, Arif Rahman Rusvid & Imam Rellygius Tartusi. 3 jejaka anggota kumpulan trio Ganto Rio dari Padang, Indonesia. Yang berjaya menambat hatiku itu ialah Imam yg comel :’) lantak lah org lain kata muka dia jambu. hati dah suka. nasib baik x ikut die balik Padang :p

Dah lah sedih x sedar kamera kompak set ISO tinggi.. tengok gambar dah byk noise.. :( sbb tu jugak x leh upload banyak gambar.

Untuk gambar2 Teater Muzikal Teratak Minang tengok kat sini. Jumpa masa Google hari tu. Nak lebih lagi, Google la sendiri. Hehe.

Honestly, eventho without the cutie pie Imam Rellygius Tartusi, i would still give the show a perfect 5 stars!! Tak kisah la klau lakonan kaku ke, ape ke, sbb muzik, lagu & tarian Minang yang dipersembahkan dah sangat2 menyentuh jiwa! Elly Kassim, Eddy Sillitongga, the actors and actresses, the musicians, the dancers - Artistana Istana Budaya (Malaysia) & Sofyani Dance Group (Indonesia), the crews – they all deserved a standing ovation!!

Terima kasih abg Den Wahab for the beautiful Teratak Minang The Musical!! 

Next, Teater Uda & Dara akan dipersembahkan sekali lagi, pada 10-20 Julai 2010 di Istana Budaya. So, seperti biase, siapa nak belanja? ;p

…but i just have to show you this!!

this is like..totally cool, man!! use this hash tag (#) with short-form of the team u support for the 2010 World Cup, and you’ll see this on Twitter.com. Twitter also set up an official twitter page for the 2010 World Cup. You can check the schedule and easily read the tweets with hashtags of World Cup & sorted by teams there.

Plus, you can add the flag of your team on your Twitter avatar with Twibbon.

And for those who is staying somewhere without TV (like me, in hostel *sigh), and wish to stream instead of going to the mamak place, you can check Livestreamz.com or FromSport.com out.

It’s just few hours left, countdown to the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa.

So, which team are you?

The newly opened Perodua Servis Centre


[Live blogged by juLia d buBbles at 11 Jun '10, 2.50pm MYT PST]

A Perodua Service Centre was opened in Nibong Tebal, Penang months ago. It's kinda easy for Perodua driver in this area, we dont need to go Perodua Juru that always have long queue. Even if you wanna book for appointment, u'd need to book 2 to 3 days earlier, which not always have free slots.
I came in, without appointment, and i dont need to wait long before my car is being serviced. Me love it! Currently at the customer lounge. And if u wanna hav a drink or some food to munch, Bistro Muhammad is just next to d service centre.
Gonna read Salina while waiting. ;)
