Flag off: 6:30 a.m.
Category: 10km women open.



The journey begins. From southern to northern.


Almost there..


On the bridge.


Getting dark. 4 hours drive from Subang Jaya.




On the bridge.


Night. Full of lights. View from my apartment. Not far from the bridge.


Pasembur. Penang's pronounced it as "pasemboq"

Beef soup and bread. The second dish because I'm really hungry. Yes, I'm hungry most of the time :pi
This place is called Padang Brown. Place where you can have a good food for your mouth ;)


Looking for the starting point. It is nearby the Seagate/Eastin Hotel.


I'm not a fast runner and don't have much stamina to stop on the bridge and take some pictures like other participants. Hoho. Finish point was at Queensbay.




The crowds. Water.. Water.. People are thirsty.
I que in the wrong lane which end up we need to pay for the water. Urgh. Wasting my time and energy. Don't mind to pay but the point is, I don't bring any money! Sigh.


Dare to dream? Haha.


Tired! I'm here but need to walk on the flyover to get back to the car. I almost get lost since I forgot where the car was parked and realized that it was at the end of the flyover. Huh.


Time to fulfill the stomach's alert.
My friend's mee udang. It is at Taman Tun Sardon. It looks like a famous place with delicious food. Most of the runners was eating here. I'm not eating anything *rugi* because I already had 2 bowls of cereals, 3 glass of 100plus and 4 glass of Milo at the finished point.




Not changing yet. Still with the running vase and have a sightseeing. This place is Marina Bay. We have a chitchat, share the experiences during the run and...


Do the shopping! We go to Overrun Factory Outlets (OFO). This place got a lot of branded clothes, for men, women, boys, girls and babies. Cheap - I think with a lot of discounts especially on second items.


Oh I'm sorry. Done already. Too hungry and really delicious till forgot to have some pict on it. It is at Original Kayu Nasi Kandar. Opposite to the Vistana Hotel.


Sunset. Heading back to Subang Jaya with a really really really bad traffic. It tooks 6 hours driving!! Reached USJ at 1 a.m. And still have to go work for next day :(

Elakkan rasuah demi kesejahteraan dunia dan akhirat

Assalamualaikum wbt

best oh cuti hari ni. bangun pun lengah2. dah bangun pergi jalan2 sana, jalan2 sini. KL agak lengang sebab ada yang masih kerja, ada yang dah balik kampung. topik utama aku hari ni bukan nak berlagak syoknye cuti sebab kilang aku ade gak call berkali2 kan. sebenarnya aku nak cite macam mana nak elak disaman sewaktu diminta "sesuatu" oleh si penyaman.

ada kat satu simpang area Loke Yew, aku drive dengan selamber skip dari lane kanan ke lane seberang yang ada double line. 10 meter kat depan ada tangan yang melambai. seorang lelaki baju putih siap ada vase pantul cahaya warna hijau menahan. datang seorang kawan segak berbaju putih kat tangan kiri ada sebuah buku catitan. tangan kanan pegang pen. aku stop kereta ngam2 belakang sebuah kereta Proton Pesona. 

lelaki tadi melihat2 road tax keretaku. ambil plate kereta lalu datang dan memberi isyarat untuk menurunkan tingkap. "Assalamualikum.. nak tengok lesen.." tanpa banyak cakap aku berikannya. "asal mana? kerja kat mana? nak pergi mana ni?"

memang dasar seorang polis yang banyak tanya. aku jawab sehabis jujur. setiap manusia ada kelemahannya. "awak nak saya catat ke tak? langgar double line boleh tolerate. kalau nak masuk simpang ni kena buat u-turn kat depan tu sikit je lagi cik. cepat.. kalau nak kena saman, saya tulis.. amacam?"

amboih.. berbudi bahasa. hilang dah hormat aku kat ko. aku dalam wallet memang la ada beberapa cash. tapi prinsip aku, aku takkan memberi atau menerima rasuah. "saya kalau keluar memang tak bawa banyak cash." "kalau isi minyak camner? berapa cik ada?" mak oi. ingat ni jual beli.. aku perangkap dia balik. 

"saya tak bawa banyak cash. isi minyak pakai kad. tol pakai touch & go. kalau encik nak, esok petang saya belanja makan. sekarang memang tak dapat la.." 
"tak nak. nanti bini saya marah" 
"bawa dia sekali"
"tak nak lah. kes hari ni kena settle hari ni gak" 
"tak ada.. memang tak de. kalau nak gak esok je." 

duit aku ade, tapi takde rasuah untuk ko. maghrib2 macam ni memang banyak setan berkeliaran hasut deorang ni buat pekerjaan tak senonoh. hancur.. hancur.. deal punya deal..

"okelah saya bagi amaran je kali ni kat cik. lain kali buat u-turn kat depan tu "
"terima kasih. Assalamualaikum.."

selamat. aku tak kena saman, aku tak bagi rasuah, dia tak dapat rasuah.. kalau tanya aku siapa polis tu, minta maaf, memang aku jenis tak ambil port ape nombor badan dia ke ape bagai. otw ke Gombak tu aku buka radio frequency 91.5. kebetulan ada ceramah tentang besedekah kepada diri sendiri. ustaz tu kata, salah satu cara untuk kita beramal kepada diri sendiri ialah dengan tidak memberi dah menerima rasuah. pek! tertepek kat hidung aku. lain2 isi ceramah tu aku tak dengar. otak aku melayang entah memane. Alhamdulillah aku mampu menahan nafsu. kan best kalau time polis tu minta kat aku ceramah ni tengah berlangsung. boleh bagi dia dengar sekali. 

sebenarnya ni kali kedua aku kena kes macam ni. kali pertama aku kena sebab guna phone masa driving. aku cakap benda yang "nak saman, saman la. saya tak bawa cash pun..." terbukti berkesan untuk kedua2 kali. harap2 la tak ada polis yang "tak jujur/pecah amanah/tak bertanggungjawab" baca blog aku so dia tahu trick mengelak rasuah secara baik. hohoho.

Amazing Trails of the Thrill Seekers 2012

Amazing Trails of the Thrill Seekers 2012
Venue: Selangor
Date: 3 November 2012
Organizer / sponsored by: Tribe Toyota

On 3rd Oct 2012, i got an email from Tribe Toyota Team inviting me for a participation on Toyota Thrill Seekers 2012. This year is different from the previous years which is they have 2 types of game (twice the fun!); online game and on-ground event. The main elements of the games are SPEED, BALANCE, MENTAL and STAMINA.

the categories

I didn't wait any longer and form a tribe of 4 and play the online game. For the online game, there are 3 times of trials and of course we need to get the highest marks to win. i don't have much knowledge on the helicopter and parachute so I didn't win :(

Move on 3rd November, the main event that i awaits for - the on-ground event! early in the morning at 7:15am we gathered at UMW Toyota Motor Sdn Bhd Head Office, have our mission kit and breakfast. As usual I was late and my team members did't get their meal properly. (I'm sorry!)

We have a briefing for the event. total participators are 27 tribes and we divided into 4 groups to move on 4 different places as per the event categories. For each challenges, only 2 persons from each team can play, while other 2 will go for code hunt.

The participants

lets rock and roll!!

We are in group no 1 team 8. first mission is Speed, the challenge is ATV Challenge at ATV Ezzyride, Jalan Kampung Lombong, Shah Alam.

My team members - strategies.. strategies..

Neng (with helmet) -  before her turn

a guy who ride an ATV without brake. almost got near miss =.='

The Speed warriors!

The code hunters

makan (again) time

Second challenge was the Balance. we moved to SkyTrex Adventure Park, Taman Pertanian Malaysia, Bukit Cahaya Seri Alam. 

The Balance warriors!

The challenge is to bring 300ml of rice during the course. We have to climb the leader of 17m, walk on a piece of board, flying fox, walk on the hanging pipes, flying fox again and some other extremely interesting experience that I ever had. phew. Alhamdulillah thanks Allah that the weather was nice so that we could play those games!

this is high! my hands tired in the middle of the climb. 45 sec for me 

the most scary point. feel like peeing..

we can run here..

where the time taken for the challenge

The third challenge, we have to move to new UMW Toyota Motor Body & Paint Center at Klang, Selangor. we decided to solve 6 puzzles as we could get half of time as the bonus. 

asking a question..

last challenge, break the ice to retrieve 5 chips at Snowalk, i-City, Shah Alam. The ice cube is about 5 inch thick i guess and we just provided with a small hammer (they call it big hammer. sigh) to break it out with a hungry stomach and very cool environment! phew. my thumb getting bigger after that.

the code hunters

Now it comes to fill our stomach with something good and get to know who wins the challenges! we heading back to Head Office and..

..where the fat came from.. like a girl starving for a week..

Fried rice, mushroom spaghetti, lamb, broccoli, sambal sotong, fried chicken - all-in-a-plate

mushroom soup, desserts, cucumber juice

And... here we go~~~

the winner for SPEED CATEGORY is us! AWESOME!!!!

feel like we win the new Toyota Prius C car!

Whatever the challenge provided, we finished it great! We having not just a lot of fun together but is was a great experience that we never had before. And the best part is - they all F.O.C.! wow~ be a Toyota owner and you'll get this opportunity. haha!
