Tioman Island I

readers.. are you ready to join me?! well i am going to introduce Tioman Island to those who have not been there! what ever it is i would like to share my trip with you all. bare with me, it's going to be a long LONG post. If you are feeling sleepy please don't read it 1st, i am scared that you will snored half way reading it.

okay, we departed at 630am and it took 5hours plus to reach the jetty ( sorry, i forgot the name of the jetty). yea bus ride is not a good idea ! even though the bus driver is real handsome but thanks to him we traveled more because he is not familiar with the road ! we supposed to reach at 11ish ! beside that the road was so bumpy it made me feel dizzzzy !


thank god we reached the jetty safely. the three goodies were overwhelmed with joy when they 1st step into the ferry.*it's our very 1st trip* evidences? look at the pics below then..



me, purposely bought roxy summer splash for my trip ! it fits the title !

us wearing smile on the face

it was a 1 1/2 hours ride. Initially, we were sitting on our seats cam-whoring and eating nuts which provided by Miss Eunice Ng. Until someone told us that there's this open-area at the top of the ferry, we decided to have a look without hesitating..

well, the view is amazing ! i love the endless-deep-blue-sea . we couldn't bother much even though the sun was shining until our eyes became so so small but thanks to the strong wind that kept us away from sweating.

me, eunice, maro and evelyn with the coolest-latest-fashionable hairstlye ! maro's hair is classic !

and the waves :)

when we were happily taking photos, there's this young boy passed by us and caught our attention. if you know this movie called CJ7 i am pretty sure you know who is she.. yea ! the little actress. i never think of meeting any actor during my vacation !

dont you think she looks handsome?!
she is friendly, she never ignored us when we asked to take photo with her.


maro and her with the very famous 7 zhai.
the author and him
the group picture :0

well, i better tell you all the truth or else i might be sued by the real actress or the movie. he is not the actor but my dad's friend's son. he looks 99.99% like the actress .. and he has the 7 zhai toy as well so we asked him to act like he is the actress LOL..

more pics on the ferry !





canggih shot :) i personally love this shot very much


As you can see from the picture below, we arrived tioman island at 3pm. The view is breathtaking and well the blue blue sea is so clear that you can see beautiful corals and fishes swimming without having to dive.

the tour guide of us booked a 3 -4 stars resort which named as Paya Beach Resort. According to her, most of the visitors are from singapore. it's true ! i met alot of singaporean over there. this resort are more to chalet type :)


us, outside our room. three of us shared a room.

after throwing our luggage to the hotel, we decided to explore tioman island. NO ! we were thinking of buying a kit set to build sand castle. as we were on the way to the shop, we met bros and evelyn. she told us that there's a waterfall near our resort. thus, being the adventurous us, we changed our plan and explore the island with eve, her bro, my bros and some kids :)




it's not a water fall but a rock fall ! well, it's real far from our resort, 15 mins of walk under the hot hot sun !

luckily it is located at a shady place in the middle of a jungle. it was a bit scary intially as there's no one there except our group. none the less it is a nice place to chill as the water is so cooling !


the water is clear ! prawns are swimming around and we can enjoy free 'PRAWN' spa lol


the group

after playing around, splashing water to each other for more than 30 mins, we headed back to our resort, showered and off to our dinner.




mine, eunice, maro

we are clever ! we choose the best seats for our dinner which is facing to the sea. it's awesome to eat while looking at a splendid sunset. i wish i can do this everyday after i retired. LOL how many yrs more..


us, enjoying our dinner. look at me, i was facing the deep blue sea while makan-ing.

and this photo, if u noticed, i have changed my seat, yea just because we want to take photo with the sea and guess what?! i did not sit on a chair i am just bending down my body as if i am sitting on a chair..



the view when i was makan-ing ! i'm falling in love with tioman !
and us again ( i went back to my seat :p) well remember the boy( Tai Di - big bro in canto) which i said he looks like the actress. he said something which made three of us went speechless..

the conversation starts with

Dai di : *talking to me* what's your chinese zodiac?

Me : Rabbit
Dai di : No wonder you're so cute

speechless for a few seconds.

Maro : what about me?

Dai di : what's your chinese zodiac ?

Maro : rabbit

Daidi : ohh u are the coolest among them

Maro: what a bout her? * pointed at eunice*

and guess what

he din say a word and changed topic straight !

KIDS NOWADAYS ! he is only 10 and he is that flirtable ! GOSH

okay. let's move on..

after the dinner, i had a small photo session with both my bros.



can spot the coconut trees? i dun understand why there's no coconut for us ! they do not sell coconut ~but ice kacang, lin chi kang and chendol.

the sky turned dark around 8ish and we went back to our room to play UNO. it's a big NO NO to play with the kids. the game seemed like never ending ..it took forever to finish just one round !
and this is my future husband ! the one who told me he wanna marry me when he turns 18. It has been a year and he still remember me !
he is funny ! he lives in his own world. look at the video below ! he came up with his own script and started to act.. basically, the video is showing he cannot lift his feet up.


trying to be a superstar by wearing eunice's sun-glasses
we went to zzz at 10ish. it was maro's pre-birthday. We did not plan to sleep that early but the pool tables were full with people and karaoke is so expensive so.. sleep is the best choice after
having a deep discussion and we were sort of exhausted.

alright ! that's about it for my 1st day at tioman island :p


Until next time !
