The Residues Of Treasured Memories in Kelantan
October 28th, 2007 by damiantcy Imagine a
body of water, flowing smoothly, very smoothly, Suddenly, it reaches a
cliff and plunge deep into the abyss forming a waterfall..Then it
continues its journey and flows smoothly again..sounds melodramatic to
you??
Well,
to me it really does gave me an enormous impact in my life and without me realizing
it, I have spent the whole of my 1 week sem break holiday at my friends house
in Kelantan.. As usual, my very 1st impression towards the state was
undeveloped, bored place to spend my holidays (as you all know that there isn’t
any shopping complexes as well as entertainment & theme parks there),
insufficient facilities and the list goes on… I anticipated my holidays would
be bored at there, but…my anticipation collapsed upon me to prove me wrong….
As I
marvel upon the 1st day I arrive there on Wednesday, I was stunned with the exhilarating scenery
there although there is just trees and mountains with some undeveloped building
on my left and right as I was in the car heading to my friends house in Kuala
Kerai…no doubt I was kinda a lil uncomfortable with the “kampungly” life style
there…but…time makes me realize the beauty of Kelantan..Together with the warm
welcome handed to me when I arrive on my friends house (Lee San & Lee Wei)
together with their family members…I was treated as if I was part of their
family regardless of who I m… The house is always filled wit joy and laughter
and it really makes me feel like home…the same feeling , the comfort where you
can only feel when you ‘re at your home….
My
days spent there was terrific with outings with my friends (Lee San, Lee Wei, Yi Siang, Kit Mang) especially the trip to Kota Bharu …it takes roughly bout
an hour drive there…I get to meet my bro who is studying Kubang Kerian, USM
there..he was delighted when he met me and we have our lunch as well as our
brotherly talk there…kekekek….he really looks kinda stress up and I really pity
him..haiz..after that, we went visiting Yi Siang’s aunt, Pantai Cahaya Bulan
and KB Mall…wakakakak…the beach at PCB was great and fantastic..its view there
was exhilarating together with the cool and strong breeze…I really had fun
there…and also the KB mall…it looks more like Melaka Mahkota Parade..
Besides
that, I also go places such as the Kuala Kerai Town, the tasik there area , the
list goes on…Well, I also manage to taste Kelantan famous food such as the Nasi
Kerabu(cawjum) & Nasi Dagang, the fried bee, the eel cook with curry, tom
yam seafood, and all sorts of keropok…newazzz…its so cool and nice…btw,at 1st
I thought Kelantan dint sell pork rice because I thought it’s a muslim
state..but..i was wrong…wakakaka.,,…I manage to savour the famous pork rice
there…yummy…wakakak..together with Lee San’s mom cooking…seriously, her mom is
really a great cook with lots of luxurious dishes…lolz… I really miss the pork
cook with herbs… wish I could try it again… if there is no obstacles goes
against me…
My
hand now kinda very tired after writing this as I dint manage to have a proper
sleep during my trip back home from Kelantan to Kl by train…only manage to
sleep 5 hours as I was very uncomfortable with the bed on the train…last but
not least, I m really grateful towards Lee San & Lee Wei with their family
for making me feel so comfortable staying at their house and also for having me
as part of their family…Especially her mom and dad for treating me very well
and makes me feel like home..thanks!!not to forget also my 2 friends (Yi Siang
& Kit Mang) for spending their time wit me to make my holiday in Kelantan
an enjoyable one…I shall not forget the sweet memories in Kelantan and this memories
will I treasured for the rest of my life…THANKS!!!!
