Reunited of MRSM Kerteh Batch 91/92

It's quite difficult to write something on this.... something about the event which we had recently at Hotel Grand Bluewave Shah Alam.... but something need to be written which later became a remarkable moment .... it's actually our reunion or I would prefer to call it as friends get together..... we're ex MRSM Kerteh, Terengganu....

I don't like memories..... memories can sometime be a sad one... if not all... and even more sad if the memories were wiped out.... just like in our case.... MRSM Kerteh was really history... why I probe out this statement...is because there's no more MRSM Kerteh... they've moved out to MRSM Kuala Berang.... in fact I went for the ground breaking ceremony....the fact is, we're the last batch on Board.... really it's physically wiped out... but think again... I changed my mind. Actually the memories still remained I guess... $&(*%&^%&^$$%# (mode fening lalat)

At ground breaking ceremony of MRSM Kuala Berang

It's very hard to describe how special that place can be for all of us... I think everybody agrees.... the building where we studied... the wonderful scenary... 6 storey apartments overlooking South China Sea...blue sea... all the time breezy wind from the beach..... it was so perfect.....

We don't have many headcounts to compete with other MRSM but really it's unique.... unique in eevry way.... that's just us like brothers and sisters...

First thing first, let me thank Mr Paidzal or aka known as Laksamana Melayu who has initiated this to happen.... thanks for the endless efforts and I must say that the day speak for itself.... everyone attended including me were so happy and we were laughing till tears....food and venue were great .. in fact too much for hi tea.... less is more... so shall we begin?

Let me show you our first appearance on board..... after 20 years apart......tadaaaa rows of vogue mommies...... some still look the same or even differ but their laughter are very much the same.....

that's the end....

I must say ... I'm proud to be an ex MRSM Kerteh student... and I acknowledge that... this is where my journey towards where am I right now began... with the opportunity and privileges offered as a MARA student.... where all the efforts are given to breed a success malay student.... where it entail the arts of entrepreuship, hardship, independent ... and the list is endless.......  someone really deserve a sincere thanks from me.... I think you know who you are.....

end with the songs which we sang during assembly.... Lagu Warisan.... tetiba mode syahdu

Anak kecil main api

Terbakar hatinya yang sepi

Airmata darah bercampur keringat

Bumi dipijak milik orang

Nenek moyang kaya raya

Tergadai seluruh harta benda

Akibat sengketa sesama kita

Cita lenyap di arus zaman

Indahnya bumi kita ini

Warisan berkurun lamanya

Hasil mengalir ke tangan yang lain

Pribumi merintih sendiri

Masa depan sungguh kelam

Kan lenyap peristiwa semalam

Tertutup hati terkunci mati

Maruah peribadi dah hilang

Kini kita cuma tinggal kuasa

Yang akan menentukan bangsa

Bersatulah hati bersama berbakti

Pulih kembali harga diri

Kita sudah tiada masa

Majulah dengan gagah perkasa

Janganlah terlalai teruskan usaha

Melayu kan gagah di Nusantara

Culinary tour Yokyakarta & Bali

"Travelling is not yet complete, if you don't taste the special food of that area. Sometime, a plate of food can tell us many informations about the inhabitans there. Starting from taste, culture and the spirit of life" Quote from Yogyes.com

Yes.. very true... travelling will not be meaningful without tasting the local specialties... so when abroad... always identify eating place which serve halal food.... then if assured.... just go for it.... but here in Yogya... don't have this problem at all.... mostly are Muslim... so no worries about food... can get it everywhere, anytime and so cheap.... real cheap...thanks to Yogyes.com for the recomended hotspot eating place.

To begin with.... dua hari berturut-turut... we all had seafood for dinner.... and we had it at Depok Beach..... first day, tour guide bawak... the next day, we all redah naik motor ...hmmm memang fun... Depok Beach ni terletak berhampiran dengan Parangritis Beach....

Okay... what makes us repeat? first the concept.... Here, you buy whatever fish or seafood you like from the market... then just bring it to one of many shops around that will cook for you.... at a minimal charge of IDR7,000 per kg. Just imagine, if you buy 2kg worth of stuff, they will cook for you for less than RM5.00. hmmm can't get it here right.... for four dishes..and of course the price is inclusive of other ingredients they need to add like onion, ketchup, gas, oil, chillies etc... can't really think how they can can get breakeven..

So ... let's go and shop for fish, crab, prawn.... or perhaps anything you like... I chose a bit of everything and cost me RM40.++ and the fish are so fresh....

While waiting for the food to come..... jom layanz rojak buah jap....

okay... food is ready.... taste? so damn good.... still using charcoal to bake and cook the dish.... presentation? sempoi giler... memang tak padan dengan rasa...

Ikan bakar (Grill fish)

Butter Prawn

and this is my favourite.... Kepiting masak asam manis pedas.... kat sini, kalau you cakap ketam..tak de orang faham... they call crab Kepiting

Cumi (Sotong) goreng tepung....

.

.

.

.

okay Bismillah semua.... enche hubby kat belakang tu dah tak boleh nak toleh kiri kanan..... uenak tuenan..

hmmm .... lagi satu yang special nya.... semua dish akan dihidang bersama nasi putih dan ulam-ulaman..... and ulam bukan sebarang ulam.... daun basil lagi.... memang kelas ko Jah...

The repeat session on the next day....... like yesterday, we bought something from the market... tapi kali ni... I'm quite selective.... bukannya apa... first takut tak habis, keduanya.. dah alang-slang datang dari jauh... biar la rasa yang terbaek.

and today, we are lucky that baby lobster is available..... pssst... sooooooo cheeaaaappp.

.

.

.

.

ordered crab again... with the same cooking style.

.

.

.

.

and lobster.... one for me and one for enche hubby.... sekali lagi jemput makan semua............ Bismillahirahmanirrahim...

.

.

.

.

.

.

and bukan setakan makan je kami repeat... minum malam pun kami repeat gaks..... apa yang special sangat tu? hmm apalagi kalau bukan Kopi Joss.

Kami just jalan ronda-ronda... and it's quite easy to find this lepak place.... terpaksa melintas jalan keretapi.... Angkringan Kopi Joss Lek Man....

Jemput duduk bersila......

Kopi Joss ni kopi O yang diletakkan bara arang..... hmmm memang special.... lawan untuk kopi Joss ni Sego Kucing (Nasi Kucing).... known as that because of the size.....

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

Ni la arang yang dimasukkan ke dalam kopi.....

.

.

.

Lepas minum harus ronda-ronda di sepanjang jalan Malioboro.... memang happening...

.

.

.

and the repeat session for Kopi Joss... but this time with Bakpia.... ha... pernah dengar Bakpia tak.... kuih tradisi yang terfemes di Yogya.....harus dibeli sebagai oleh-oleh dari Yogya.....

Ha... inilah rupa Bakpia.... yang paling sedap, original dan femes.... ialah inti kacang hijau.... sekarang ni dah divarietikan dengan inti cheese, cokelat dsb....

.

.

.

Brand Bakpia yang femes....

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

antara street food yang ai cuba

Rojak Buah.... it's everywhere

okay... time to say say good bye to Djogdja..... will come again InsyaAllah... for no other reason than just to eat.. opppss before that... lupa pulak pasal air... pagi petang siang malammm asyik la we all cari Es Jeruk... memang best... sampai dah tiba masa nak boarding pun , enche hubby ajak minum es jeruk.... main order je... tak tengok harga.... konon nak minum sambil tengok kapal terbang take off , landing and parking.... muncung kapal terbang tu betul-betul kat tepi restoran ni... memang kelas... kata dia... kat KL pun tak leh dapat special view cam ni.....

sekali bila nak bayar,,, amik ko.... IDR66,000.... nasib baik dah habis minum...kalau tak mesti tersembur punya... biasa kitorang minum dua orang baru IDR6,000.... 10x ganda okay....hmmmm sedap sangat lah tu.... tak pe enche hubby yang bayar... terima kasih Bapak Azuan...

okay... that;s the end of Djogja.... now we go to Bali..... sekali dah compare with Djogdja..... terasa everything in Bali is expensive..... especially food.... nasib baik sedap and presentation memang terbaek.....

Order ketam seekor 1kg.... besar kan?

.

.

.

Chilli crab...memang sangat-sangat sedap...

and this is what I like in Bali...serve with assorted sambal....memang real appertizer......

and on our last note on food.... we found this place called kepiting Hitam.... we came here because restoran yang we all makan semalam kat Jimbaran tu tutup...baru je inaht nak repeat...maklumlah hari raya Galungan... nasib baik dah survey tempat ni masa ambik pamplet kat airport....

Tapi yang frust nyer... maaf Pak.. kepiting nya kosong... maksudnya.. ketam out of stock..... grrrr... so we ordered cumi and fish.....

Fish

serve with this......

I don't think I can write any further... must stop writing now.... tomorrow is working day... and going to be tough day for me after long break...... and cannot write anymore cox so tired... today we had picnic in Sg Chilling.... will update later..... nite nite all
