Wuhooo, if you actually did stalk my facebook, you will know where I am right now!
So, basically I'm living in a island right now. A tourist island which is REDANG ! YUSH YUSH YUSH! One of my dream acheive! Thanks. Okay, so first of all, you cant imagine the sea water is so damn clean compare to Penang Island or the beach on the other side of Malaysia. Redang Island is located at Terengganu. And it takes 1 hour and 30 minutes to get to the island from there. Terengganu is a place where they haven't developed much yet. Is a quiet and relaxing place.
Back to the topic. Let's talk about REDANG ISLAND. This is the scene that I get to see every single days. You feel like living in a heaven all the time. V
1) Jump and snap pictures.
Oh well, you don't have to do this in this island only. But I realize lots of people love to do this when they are at the beach. I did that before too :p Trust me, if you actually sit at the beach for whole day, what you get to see is, lots of people, either in a gang, solo, or a couple with a camera stand. Trying to jump really high to get the picture. I did that last 2 years when I was here. LOL. Is like a trend of maybe a curse that everybody do that. Agree?
*Jump High!*
2) Lay on the sand/beach and act like a dead body.
Lol, before I'm going to shower, sometime, I run to the beach, lay down and waiting to get wet. The feelings is so damn awesome. Like everything is none of your concern. You don't have to worry about paying rent, car petrol, entertainment expenses, foods etc. And let the sea waves push you and laugh alone there. HAHAHAHA. I seem so insane sometime. Once, I saw a fat guy lying there and letting the waves pushing him and he just rolling there. I laughed so hard until my tear drops because he is fat and cute and funny when he is rollling. Opps! I feel bad now. Yea, the best part of staying in the beach. Just lay there and relax and listen to the sound waves like nobody business and you don't feel like going back to the reality and materialistic life ever!
*Dead body found*
3) Blue Sand
♥
Blue sand, I bet not every beaches do have blue sand. What the hell is blue sand? Basically when I tell my friend about this, they got no idea what I'm talking about. Oh well, blue sand is actually sand in blue colour. And that's not the fun part yet. The fun part is the sand glow in the dark. You can't see it in day time. Night time, beside the beach when everywhere is so damn dark. Try to look onto the sand, kick it, step it. And you will see something glow in the dark in blue colour. I got no idea what the hell is that because I failed to search it online. Some said is a living things, some said is a foods, etc. No idea. I get to see it when I run to a quiet and dark place and look for it. And I saw it everytime. It disappear really fast. I mean the brightness turn dark. I tried to keep it in a bottle because I thought it might glow when I shake the bottle but I ended up failed. My friends called me silly. But I'm so glad that they willing to do silly things with me.
And well, I can't snap the pictures of blue sand because it's too dark. How I wish I have my camera with me!! Phone just can't snap any shits of it ! God damn, so maybe you could try google image. But fail. because it's not easy to capture it. Oh well, come experience by yourself. I can show you if you want to :D
4) Stars
If it's not raining on that day, you get to see stars all over the sky. During midnight, the stars even more. I mean is like all over the sky. Is not easy to see stars all over the sky if you're living in a big city full with tall buildings. Well, stars all over the sky is not the best part yet. The best part, best part best best part is, you get to see shooting stars easily. Not really that easy because sometime you need to wait and be patience. But you still get to see it.
*Place where I need to go over :D *
Like what I did these few days. Purposely climb to a big rock which is kinda far from where I'm staying. Go through all the scary and dark route and climb up to the rock. Lay down and look onto the sky. You will be fucking melting! Trust me ! ! ! Is all over the sky.
And lucky, everytime when I go, I get to see shooting stars easily. But I know it gets more during 2am on wards. I feel so sleepy everytime on 1am and went back to sleep. LOL, might get a chance to stay up late to check on the shooting stars again!
Oh well, people just love to observe stars isn't they?
Once, I went to check on blue sand. WOW, I feel bored and went back. While on the way back, I will need to cross over a long bridge. On the bridge, I get to see those blue sands when the sea waves knock them on the small rock. Blue sands glow. Melt. And you look up the sky, there's stars all over the sky. Friend made a joke saying, those stars fall down and became blue sand.
Trust me, it's so beautiful.
Living in a big city doesn't get to see, unless they drive up to a hill to see. Or maybe a big field. Lay down. But oh well, I melt so many times already over here. Too bad, I wish I could bring my family along.
5) Pick Sea Shells
Ah, I bet most of the people do this. But in redang, I don't see much sea shells tho. Coral yea! haha. Most of the girls pick sea shells and bring back as souvenir lol. Girls. Unless you bring it back and you make a beautiful bracelets or something nice. Or else don't bring back and leave it in a corner of your room like a rubbish. Thief, thief. Did that before?
6) Sunrise
Most of the people, when they go for vacation at a beach. They will get up early just to see sunrise. Wow, the beautiful scene. But til now, I haven't go for it yet. Because too lazy to wake up, or stay up til late just to wait for sunrise. Maybe next time. LOL. Oh well, I did that when I was here before but we get to the wrong place to see sunrise. I don't know where is North, South, West, East. *blush* Then we end up do nothing after that. Ahhh, woke up at 5am just to see!! and get to the wrong place! Well, beach is easy to see sunrise because you don't have to climb up to the hill.
I'll share my experience here when I finally get to see sunrise here! Promise.
My friend have a plan for me. Is like: First, we go to check on the blue sand in the midnight. It gets more in the midnight. Then climb up to the hill to wait for shooting stars. Lying down there and maybe sleep for awhile. After that, go to the other side of the beach and wait for sunrise. The best plan ever. But yet I don't get a chance to do that because I always complain that I don't get enough time to sleep. Not enough sleep.
When I woke up early to go jogging :D
I saw lots of people snapping pictures, so I Joined them :p
Alone. Is awesome !
7) Snorkelling
Hahahaha, not every people love to go snorkelling because they don't know how to swim and they are too afraid to go on water even with their life jacket. For me, God damn it. I love snorkelling so much. Not really snorkelling but swimming. I love the feelings when you're on the water, in the water or whatsover. Swimming is the best exercise though! I didn't really get a chance to follow my friends go far place to go snorkelling because I don't have time yet. But working here, you can go to snorkelling anytime and it's free ! You don't have to pay too. Best yea?
Once, my friend brought me to go snorkelling nearby. You need to swim a distance just to get into the deep sea area. I told them I don't need a life jacket. But they force me to wear it. After swim like an hour, finally I'm allowed to take off my life jacket. And the feelings was like: Oh damn, FREEDOM!!! You can swim easily and freely in the deep sea. See those fishes, or maybe those fishes seeing us more. LOL.
I only get to see baby sharks. Small one. :( Will go for big one next time! When I get the chance to go deep deepest area for snorkelling. And one more fun thing was, my friend caught a nemo!! And he gave it to me and put it on my hand. TRUST ME, IS SO DAMN CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then he put it back and said you can't simply let it go away, need to put back to the place where you caught them because they got their own houses. It's awesome.
8) Hammock
Oh yea oh yea ! Lying on hammock and listen to the wind blowing, sound of the sea waves is so damn relaxing and with a cold drinks. Throw away your phone for a while. Stop the chatting on the phone. Whatsapp. Posting stuff on facebook and comment shits. Stop that for a while and take your time to enjoy all theses.
Lots of people actually line up to lay on the hammock and relax like heaven. Yuhooooo~~~~~
9) Enjoy the scene of bikini girls running on the beach
I don't care you're a guy or girl. But when a girl is wearing a bikini, wooooo, everyone will look at her. HAHAHAHA. Because it's sexy! And guys usually nose bleeding. Oh well, me too. Hahaha. Can't take an eyes from her.
And one more thing is, yoooo!! Guy with 6 packs is absolutely killing me too. bahaha. oppsss, sorry. Just, we are here to look at all these free shows. Didn't we? Hahaha
I get to see this everyday. . . . . . . OMG
10) Drink at the beach
Sometime I got no idea why those people come here for holiday but they ended up searching for clubbing, drinking to get drunk. Why? I thought you're here to enjoy and relax. Why the hell you still doing stuff that you can do in the city? Different feelings when you get drunk at the beach?
Well, my fun part is, I used to have a thought that whenever I'm sad. Sitting at the beach drink beer, or maybe 100 plus is really relax and you will feel released. Even though is not. Now, whenever I'm sad, I really have the feelings to run to the beach, jump into the sea and get wet. And everything gonna back to normal. Because I'll laugh and smile alone there. But I ended up feeling so lazy to go back to my room to shower. All over again to get wet.
Oh well, get a few drinks and sit beside the beach at night. The feelings are maximumly super duper hyper extremely damn fun and enjoy and relax and fantastic and brilliant and awesome and excellent! ! !
FYI: I'm working here for like few weeks. Before I actually get here, my family stopped me because they said is just a small island with nothing. You can't do anything. You will get bored real soon.
I have to say that, you're wrong! Even is nothing, but whatever you do is just gonna make you happy. Like walking along the beach is better than you stuck in the traffic jam everyday. Lying on the beach is better than you lying on your bed thinking how much money you need to settle your debts. Counting stars on the sky and waiting for shooting stars is better than thinking what to eat everyday.
I might be narrow mind a little bit like my friend said, I tried to run away from reality life because I don't want to accept the truth that the world is reality. You need to work hard to get $ to pay off debts. You get your salary, you pay for your rental, your car petrol, tol money, foods, drinks, normal expenses, and entertainment expenses also. At the end, you only left few hundred for saving or maybe you finished up everything.
Me, I get pay like how everyone does, and what's different about me is, I don't have a chance to spend my money. Everything is like provided. Free foods, free stay, free accommodation, free snorkelling. In your perception, maybe I'm childish. But what's the purpose you stress yourself so much?
Conclusion, I didn't regret at all for making this decision.
Anyway, if you're interested to come over to work or vacation, pm me on facebook ! *wink*
