The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost. 1875

this is a poem i use to learn while in the secondary school.
i dont know why, but i remember till this day.
maybe because it is best reflect our life where it always full of choice.

It is about taking the non-mainstream path. However, the ending is very ambiguous. You can't tell if the difference is good or bad, if the narrator is sighing with contentment or disappointment. This is deliberate, because, in life, the choice can bring either a good or a bad outcome.

To sum up in one sentence, it is about someone reflecting on the consequences (either good or bad) that were determined by a single choice.

TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood, 
And sorry I could not travel both 
And be one traveler, long I stood 
And looked down one as far as I could 
To where it bent in the undergrowth;      
  
Then took the other, as just as fair, 
And having perhaps the better claim 
Because it was grassy and wanted wear; 
Though as for that, the passing there 
Had worn them really about the same, 
  
And both that morning equally lay 
In leaves no step had trodden black. 
Oh, I marked the first for another day! 
Yet knowing how way leads on to way 
I doubted if I should ever come back.
  
I shall be telling this with a sigh 
Somewhere ages and ages hence: 
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I, 
I took the one less traveled by, 
And that has made all the difference.

Malacca 2 days one night trip

I used to stay at Malacca for about 3 years..
Early this year, i went back to Malacca for a 2 days one night trip with friends from my hometown.
Malacca is such a awesome place and Melaka heritage area is well known for their Peranakan culture and their foods.

The below pictures is Malacca famous food- chicken rice ball.

one of the famous chicken rice ball shop- Hoe Kei
 
     chicken rice balls
   
 





         

 Chicken rice is basically rice that has been cooked in chicken stock topped with either Chinese-style roast chicken (red) or boiled chicken (white) and some sauce made from soy sauce and chicken/sesame oil. And then of course, you have pork rice which comes with either barbecued pork (or char-siu which is made from loin marinated with Chinese-style barbecue sauce) or roast pork (which is pork belly with crispy rind).
The what so special about the chicken rice is that they made it in a ball shape...if people see from far, the rice ball just look alike like fish ball...but still i prefer the normal chicken rice, that is much more nicer...
Dutch square
St. Paul Church



Dutch square also call as Red Square as all the surrounding building painted in red colour or more precisely light maroon painted buildings, was formerly the center of Dutch administration.
St. Paul's Church is a historic church building in Malacca, Malaysia that was originally built in 1521. It is located at the summit of St. Paul's Hill and is today part of the Malacca Museum Complex comprising of the A Famosa ruins, the Stadthuys and other historical buildings.

San Poh Teng temple

one of the well in San Poh Teng Temple




Bukit Cina (Malay: "Chinese Hill") is a hillside of historical significance in the capital of Malaysian state of Malacca, Malacca Town. It is located several kilometers to the north from the historical center of Malacca (Dutch town and Chinatown), but these days, it's surrounded by the modern city on all sides.
According to the local tradition, in the mid-15th century, princess Hang Li Poh, the great granddaughter of the  Chinese Yongle Emperor, the third emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was sent to be married to the Sultan of Malacca, Sultan Mansor Shah, to seal relations between the two countries. The hill, Bukit Cina, a gift from the sultan, was established as their residence. The Well of  Hang Li Poh, which is next to the San Poh Teng Tenple at the foot of the hill, was constructed by Hang Li Po's followers for her personal use but was also an important source of water for much of the town. Today, the well has acquired the reputation of a  Wishing well and it is believed that anyone who throws a coin into the well will return to Malacca.

These are some of the historicall place of Malacca that i've gone.. I'll go back there to discover more interesting places...

Is it this is due to i've thrown a coin into the Wishing well in the San Poh Teng Temple?? haha....whatever.

Taman Negara



At the first and oldest official Protected Area in the country, Taman Negara was originally called King George V National Park. Declared in 1983 by the sultans of 3 states Kelantan, Pahang and terenggani upon King George's SIlver Jubilee and to preserve the land's indigenous nature in perpetuity. It was gazetted separately by each state's Enactments in 1983-1939. The park was renamed Taman Negara after the nation gained independence in 1957.
Taman Negara is the largest of all Protected Areas in Penisular Malaysia with 4,343 sq km. The Pahang section of the park is the largest at 2,477 sq km, followed by Kelantan's portion at 1,043 sq km and Terengganu's at 853 sq km. The Peninsular highest peak, Gunung Tahan at 2,187m rises in the Pahang sector of the park.
Taman Negara is indeed one of the oldest rain forest in the entire world, estimated at 130 million years old. The abundance and diversity of nature is phenomenal in Taman Negara, one of the world's most complex and rich ecosystems, A veritable treasure of the planet, it is to be saved for posterity.

Exciting activities in Taman negara

Rivers and waterfalls
Shooting the rapids is a mist for all thrillseekers. White water rafting sites include upsteam Sungai Tembeling from kuala Tahan, experience and hour of raw water power as you and your boatmates negotiate seven sets of rapids. Tradisional bamboo rafting from Kuala Pertang to Kuala Koh, Kayaking can also be done.
Fishing and Angling
A true anglers' paradise, the park's rivers sport popular species such as kelisa (arowana), toman (snakehead), serabau and the prized kelah (malayan mahseer). Many of the local species are large and aggresive, providing a great challenge for fishing enthusiasts. Note that some areas have forbidden zones where fish sanctuaries are located.
Bird Watching
With about 350 species of birds in the whole park including Drongos, Malkohas and the Pied Hornbill, Taman Negara is naturally one of the prime birding spots in the region.
Spelunking or Caving
With so many unspoiled caves to be explored, Taman Negara is a spelunker's limestone forest heaven. Most of the cave have most spectacular rock formations and a great variety of flora and fauna to be discovered. Some caves even have valuable prehistoric finds, and many caves are still subject to archaeological study.

For me, Taman negara is such a nice place to visit, and i think one day i'll go there to have a visit...

Hot weather

Recently, the weather getting hot day by day...
Even is only sitting in front the laptop and do assignment, still non-stop sweating...
This hot weather make me wanted to get a vacation...

I love beach very much, i plan to go Bali Island one day...
Bali- one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. it has been awarded as world best island for few years. Bali Island located in Indonesia with a population recorded as 3,891,000 in 2010.

Here are the some information i write about Bali Island, feel free to visit below link:
http://www.squidoo.com/spiritual-vacation-bali-island

let us talk about the food to eat in hot weather:
1. Water


So it's not actually a food, but it is so incredibly important to drink water in hot weather. Your body needs to stay hydrated, and water is a far better way to do this than soda or alcohol.







2. Watermelon


This is my absolute favorite summer food, especially if it's a traditional watermelon with seeds. Best chilled (although delicious regardless), watermelon is sweet and delicious and refreshing. And of course, it is always fun to spit the seeds out or get those traditional summer photos of big slices of watermelon on sunny days.



3. Oranges

Another great summer fruit, oranges provide a lot of hydration and of course, lots of vitamin C. These are especially good for replenishing your body after participating in physical activities outdoors.





4. Salad

When we use lots of fruits and vegetables, salad can also be loaded with vitamins and antioxidants.It is good to eat during the hot weather.








5. Ice-kacang


This is always my favorite food....cold, nice taste....yum..yum..
