It was a mini vacation with my friends. We've been talking about going on a getaway earlier this year, and successfully managed to proceed the plan on the 22-24th of September 2011.
22 September 2011
We had lecture class that morning. Right after class, i parked my car at the NR building, and we left for the bus station by Van Kuning. Sorta like a Van Sapu. Left for KB at 4.30pm. (Blame the bus for being late).

| To KB with love |
6 hours later, Anne (who was already in KB, originally a KB-ian, the mastermind of our getaway) picked us up at the bus station. Not minding our bus lags and tiredness, we hit off to Wakaf Che Yeh. It's like Uptown in KL, only it operates earlier. From 6pm-5am.

| Opens: 6pm-5am |
I didn't buy anything here. Afraid i'd miss something else more offering. (Regret mood: ON).
I wanted to buy some tudungs, but i didn't. (Regret mood: Still ON). I think i'm gonna urge my parents to go there one day, and this time, i'll make sure i buy something!
So after shopping window-shopping (for me only), we headed back to Anne's home. Her house was very kampung-style. Very big. Very..my typical Parents'-Kampung-House-Taste. Ducks and chickens running around as they please. Cows and goats munching grass, birds in their comfy cages, and cats running around as if they own that place.
It was a chilly morning. Opened the window, and breathed in the hadn't-had-this-refreshing-air-for-a-long-time air. Refreshing oxygen was very absorbing. Anne's auntie prepared the wonderful breakfast, mee goreng. After breakfast, we headed to...Rantau Panjang: the shopping heaven.
Offered here are T-shirts, blouses, dresses, pyjamas, bags, tudungs, telekungs, door-gifts, teddy bears, shoes, slippers, jeans, foods, accessories, sunglasses, kains, toys and many many more.
So here, i managed to buy two tins of flavored nuts (Chicken and Prawn flavored), an I-<3-Kelantan t-shirt for myself, and some souvenirs for my family. Didn't really go nuts here, cuz i was, well, sorta control my budget. But if somebody were to sponsor my shopping here, i'd marry you dude! If u were a gal, i'll be your instant BFF!...(Pardon my fluctuated emotional condition).Then, Anne brought us to PCB (Pantai Cahaya Bulan. Previously known as Pantai Cinta Berahi. What a name!). There, we ate these:
Not far from where we ate, there were a group of people clustering at the beach. Business strategy on the run. Selling traditional medicine, saying it could cure this and that. Mode of attraction: snakes. (with an 's' okay).
Not minding the crowd, we chose to enjoy ourselves instead.
After PCB, we went to Uptown. It's like a typical night market. Not so Uptown like i imagine it would be of KL Uptown like. But we did buy something to give to Anne's aunt and mom for allowing us to stay over their place. (Aren't we good girls?). Returned home at 1 am, and went straight to bed. Zzzzz..
24 September 2011
Oh no, last day! Breakfast, again prepared by Anne's aunt. I wanted to help her out in the kitchen, but she insisted i go sit down at the living room and watched TV. (Which i didn't). So since i didn't help her make breakfast, i still stayed at the kitchen to make a chit chat, whilst playing with the kittens. (Urghh...i feel like taking them back to Dungun! As if there are no kittens in Dungun). So here were the breakfast: (You may drool now).
So then it was time for us to head back to Dungun. (Sigh).
Goodbye KB. Looking forward to meet you again.
A very big thank you to Anne, for providing us a place to stay, for taking us around KB and Rantau Panjang, and for being a mediator in negotiating for a cheaper price when shopping. *giggles*
