South Island Trip 2008 - the risk all worth it!!

nie sume awak punye pasal..sampai skarang saye xleh tido :-P

instead of studying auditing for the next test this friday..i ended up writing 3 posts today..really in the mood of blogging eyh..

and that gives me a reason to blog about something that i wanna blog since before MNite 2008..my trip to South Island!!

yess..i went there with other 3 of my housemates in the 1st week of holidays..we made a very last minute decision to follow the trip organized by MSVUW..why?? becoz i dare say it was very2 cheap..and considering that i've no idea when will i go to South Island again..especially when Queenstown was one of the destinations..and Glacier Walk was one of the activities that we planned to do..and the most important thing..the opportunity to spend quality time together..we even made a deal that no outside factors can disturb the trip..but apparently ade laa jgak kan..including myself..haha..

so to South Island we went..for 6 days..6 awesome and memorable days..really..i just can't express it with words..just go to My Facebook..see the pictures uploaded by Fatinn and you'll know why..that is if u want to..

here are some of the pics:

Puzzling World - is a must!! Rugi kalau pegi South Island x singgah sini..kat sini laa tempat kte dapat melihat the magical world of physics!! hehehe..the maze is awesome..my group consists of myself, fatinn and daus dapat cari keempat-empat corner yg berlainan warna dalam mase yg singkat mengalahkan lg satu group yg ramai dari kami..dorg ade lg satu corner x jumpe..hahaha!!

bukti kami jumpe sume corner

Franz Josef - this is where we planned to do the Glacier Walk..unfortunately since we didn't place a booking earlier and the person in charged cannot accommodate the activity for more than 30 ppl..mase tu sume org sgt down..hampir2 x nak kuar dari backpackers..then we decided to do something else..x ingat name die but almost the same..dapat laa jgak tgk and tangkap gambar dgn batu2 glacier..

Queenstown - the ultimate!! byk abes duit kat sini..sempat buat 2 aktiviti je sbb pagi tu hujan..buat paraflighting and jetboating..best glerr!! pastu nak buat luge ride tp x sempat..so ktorang naik gondola je sampai atas utk maen dgn salji..maklumlah kat welly xde salji..kat South Island nie mane je tempat ade salji ktorang serbu..hahaha!! jiejah dgn shaza plak diakui gler oleh org2 kiwi di situ sbb buat skyswing..but i know it's worth the experience and money for those who like this kind of activities..for me..bende2 yg mengejutkan hormon saye nie jgn harap laa saye nak buat..roller coaster pon x penah naek..oppsss..kantoi..haha..tp ade intention utk buat bungy taun depan..camne tu..

Christchurch - da penah pegi mase Bersatu..so main intention kali nie adelah shopping!! those yg nak balik msia taun nie sume beli souvenirs kat sini sbb ade satu kedai tige tingkat tu jual souvenirs murah2!! nape laa kat welly nie xde..tp seb bek x balik msia..save sket bajet saye..ekeke..tp ade satu kejadian lawak berlaku di mana pada malam sebelum balik ke welly (christchurch adelah destinasi terakhir sbelom balik welly) kami sedang bermain game di backpackers..my team consists of me,shaza,daus,nadiah and nana was winning bler fire alarm berbunyi..sume org pon berusaha melarikan diri tp ade satu jalan kuar tu tertutup sbb sprinkler pecah..cuak sekejap..bler kuar x nampak plak ade asap di mane2..rupe2nye sprinkler tu dipecahkan oleh penghuni mabuk..alhamdulillah..sume selamat..part tu mmg x lawak bahkan cemas..tp lawaknye kami sempat mengambil gambar dgn bomba di luar backpackers tu sbb X-Base backpackers terletak di city..di betol2 depan Cathedral..jakun..sungguh jakun..ye laa..x penah berada di 'tempat kejadian' katekan..hahaha!!


girl band mempromosikan starbucks..(construction kacau)

L.O.V.E. (shaza & jiejah buat simbol 'love')

M.A.F.I.A. (game yg slalu dimain sepanjang percutian)

dapat jugak tgk haiwan comel secara live!! dolphin dan seal!! tp saye dapat tgk seal je..sbb mase dolphin tu saye tgah mabuk laut di atas feri on the way to Pickton on the 1st day..seal plak tgk dari dalam bus mase on the way to ferry on the last day..

sume tempat2 yg dikunjungi di atas adalah tidak menurut turutan..cume tulis mane yg sempat ingat ketika ini..maklum laa..da lebey seminggu kot trip tu..tp keseronokan dan kepuasan masih terasa hingga saat ini..cuti kali ini adalah cuti yg paling BEST, AWESOME & COOL!! sampai terasa sedey bler terkenangkan da nak balik welly..betol..kami sume mmg betol2 memanfaatkan percutian ke South Island kali nie..no work..no pressure..only us having fun!!

many thanx to MSVUW Committee for organizing such a wonderful and amazing trip!!

my beloved 'daughter'..fatinn..gambar nie 'nubhan' amekkan..hehe

ske gambar nie!! spt ditampal..hehe

despite of the crime i did dgn mengabaikan keje2 penting for MNite..but now..all the hard work i put thru since the first day i arrived in welly until the night of MNite..is all worth it :-)


p/s: boleh x nak cakap..pengajaran yg bleh diambil ialah..don't be afraid to take the risk..as long as u willing to 'tanggung' the consequences later..after all..that is what we learn in accounting..haha
