Groovy Quill: My Bestfriend's Wedding & MBM

We always talked about having a vacation or just sleepover + pjs party together.. the 3 of us.. - Zura, Azie & Me.. We know each others for 13 years... but we never get the chance, there always be only the 2 without another one (zura + azie-me, me+zura-azie, me+azie-zura) for whatever reason we had for each time.. finally, on Zura's solemnization nite, we managed to sleepover (and overslept) at Zura house.. And again on Zura's wedding reception, we had a chance to get together at somewhere else... (kire vacation la ni)

We (Azie & Me) went to Zura's reception at Batu Pahat... eerrr 30th Nov.. (lame baru nak citer-sorry girls.. bz byk bende nak citer) huhuhuh...

It was actually a challenging & adventurous experience for both of us... The thing that we travelled more than 3-hours-journey to the south and riding my unwashed-and-unchecked car... (Lucky nothing happened along the way)...

We're supposed to start our journey eaarrrllly in the morning @ 7am.. but since i'm the driver (which took my bath at 6.50 am) and we had to go to Zura's house twice (for my misunderstanding - as usual *eyes rolled*) so we only moved our nice-butt from Gombak at 9am.. huhuhuh...

We stopped at Seremban R&R for refreshment and had our breakfast at the Shalala Cafe...

As usual i had my nice creamy latte & azie had her yummy hot choc

wajah ceria Azie & Hot chocnya!

ku yg masih ngantuk (before caffein shots)

sleepyhead drugs - buih2 itula yg menyegarkan ku sepanjang perjalanan itew!

Then, we continue our journey to the south... huhuhu... the journey was nice! with Sinarfm menemani kami.. it almost felt like we're in 80's..... it's saddened that my home's theme song~ akula kekasihmu by AXL- didn't make it to the top 10 that week..

i walked an empty street on a boullevard of broken dreams ~ lalala

the last junction we managed to get the correct turn

kekedai lame..

It was after this junction that we cudn't find the signboard to BP... ??? How come, u have a cross junction... with no signboard whatsoever to guide us to Batu Pahat... huhuh... we started to lost since Tangkak... yeah.. Tangkak was the last place that we thought we have the 'arah tujuan yg hakiki'... and yeah.. they have mamy kains but we're too busy looking for signboard we missed the stores.. total u-turns made from Tangkak to Batu Pahat - 4! (1 time - we missed the pharmacy to get my pills so we need to u-turns.. is that count?)..

Happynye perasaan kami bile nampak jembatan ini.... We're almost there buddy!

it's Sooo not Jembatan Pulau Pinang.. i know..

We stayed at Katerina Hotel Batu Pahat for the nite & zura's make up the next day...

the lamp that keep us away from the Darkness.. huuuu...

-the single-queens bed-

After changing cloth & nap (it was hot outthere anyway) we went out to search for entertainment.. lucky us they have summit batu pahat just a walking distance from the hotel (but, of course we're NOT going there on foot).. nothing much to see though... it was supposed to be girls day out on Saturday (a day before the reception) but since Zura was 'grounded' be her Mom in Law =P.. so it left just both of us to round BP... but we did reserved ourselves an entertainment later that nite... ngehngehngeh... midnite movie ler ape lagi...

azie's smiling all the way to all-u-can-eat-breakfast!LOL =P

+_+ see that shining lil thing on my finger... =P

Finally, the day came... After breakfast, Zura came to join us for her make ups done... and at nearly 12.30 we headed to Sham's house for the reception..

Congratulation Sham & Zura = Shazura + the coming soon lil one.. hihihi..

I'd made myself clear that I dun wanna be the bridemaid as I've had my twice during Abg's & Azie's... So.. Azie was Zura's bridemaid that day eventho' she's married. heheh... But.. somewhere during the 'sanding'.. the groom's bestman had to do something and left the groom without his bestman... hurm... And.. the bestman just called me and handed me the 'kipas pengantin'... Unconciously, I took the fan and took my place beside the groom... Huhu.. So.. I was the groom's bestman- no - bestmaid? i didn't count as the 3rd bridemaid rite? hopefully yeah.. coz, there's a hearsay that " 3 times a bridesmaid never a bride.. " =P

Oppss... our journey is not done yet! we had another mission to be accomplished... The Quest of Mee Bandung Muar... we asked the mak (kak) andam where to get the nicest MBM here coz the only place i now is at the Mara building near the river... they said at Jalan Sulaiman... Huh! i guess, we'll win treasure hunt in Muar after this..

At last, after umpteenth times of u-turns, asking people and few arguments (=P) we finally arrived at Jalan Sulaiman - after Petronas station...

"ok, jalan depan sikit... aaa... ade kedai.. eh ye ker kedai ni?"

"ntah.. cube jalan depan sikit.."

ok... depan sikit.. depan lagi...

"eh ni kedai sup kambing lak ni.. ade ke jual MBM..nak tanye ke.."

"xyahla.. aku jalan depan sikit lagi..."

ok.. depan sikit... lagi..

"eh ni dah jalan temenggong lak ni...." aishhh...

"u-turn.. u-turn..."

kelihatan sebuah kereta u-turn... sambil mengatasi kelajuan pemandu2 di johor...

then... "err... kite try tanye abg petronas"

"bang... mane MBM sedap kat sini?"

"Dik... adik tau tak bangunan Mara kat ngan stesen bas tu?"

?????? PAKK!!! DUSHHUMMM!!!

rase cam nak sepak diri sendiri pun ade gak... nak sepak abang tu takut die nangis lak benti keje... huhuhuh....

"Tau.. tu saye dah makan 18 kali dah.. ni nak carik kat Jalan Sulaiman nye diorang kate sedap.. ke ade kilang buat paste MBM ni ker? cam jual kat KL tu?"

"Ooo.. kalo kat sini dik, cube try kedai tepi ni.. atau yg ade jual sup kambing tu... tu je la kot yg sedap..."

Huhuhuh... We're soo wanted to cry... we're at the particular time extremely heated by the weather at 5pm... and all we wanted to have is the nicest MBM in Muar... we went back to both kedai we went earlier... but we cudn't pushed ourselves to stop since they don't even have the sign MBM... huwaaa!!! so, thinking that we have another 3 hours journey to go, we just went to the.. yeah.. De Mara at the riverside... hueheuheuheuheue... okeyla tu depade takde...

Yeah! akhirnya... Bang! Mee Bandung 1!

ish... that shining lil thing again... wink! wink! *_*

at least the view is nice... di tepi pantai yg hening....

upps.. hands down... mine can't challenge aziah's =P

We shared our MBM since we're both fulled at Sham's house... and at 6pm.. continue our journey... We arrived sound & safe at our house @ 11 pm... It was Sunday, and unfortunately there were more than 1 car accidents at the PLUS Highway (after Senawang to KL)...
