First day......~~~~

This is it. This is the beginning of a whole lots of new experience..... Ecehh... Terasa sangat la poyo berbahasa mat salleh nie..zzz... apa apa pun post kali nie just about how I get to Irvine, CA. So here it goes....

Dec 1st, 2013

Pkol 12:08PM baru sampai Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). Dengan x ckup tidoq nya, turun lah aku dari kapal torbang MAS tu. Ak mmg dtg sorang diri, so time turun ramai2 tu ak just follow jer la passenger yang lain... muka tunjuk budget tau jer la.. haha... tp nasib bek ada ramai officer tukang tunjuk jalan... "Malaysian Airline... over here.... Malaysian Airline... please queue up over there..." dengan slang ARR yang pekat... hahaa...

And then time nk cop I-94 kt visa, rasa cm dlm felem spy tetiba.. xtau apsal... anyway, I-94 tu kira mcm brapa lama US Immigration nk bagi stay kat sana... So klu xsilap aritu ak kena lalu 2 checkpoint, one for Immigration and another one for Custom. (xtau la dua2 tu len ka sama...) First checkpoint just to get the I-94 chop... just bagi passport kt working officer, pastu dia tanya itu ini, then scan jari, kaki, muka.. Then, it's all done. walao.. pastu singgah sebentar kat Custom Officer, dia tanya la.. "Mung ada bawok makanang ka?" aku cakap la.. "ada bang.." then he replied, "What type of foods?" "Instant sajer bang.... Mostly all are instant food..." Pooff!! Settle....

Then saya pun teruskan lah perjalanan saya... bila da nk smpi entrance LAX tu, nampaklah Agent D dari Man In Black tongah pogang signboard tulih "MR. TAHIR". ("Abah, popular ha namamu di sana... lol") And then ak g la jumpa Agent D tu, we both greeted each other and he volunteered to get my luggage into the limo... quite friendly la Agent D nie... (actually most American Citizen is very friendly). Nama Agent D ni Dave jer.. and then dia kata kt ak, berehat2 la kt tempat duduk belakang yg bosar tu.. klu nk take a nap pun boley.. "normally most of the customers will just take a nap until arrive at the destination.." kata Dave. Tapi aku cakap la.. "I dont want to have a quick nap... Else I'll miss the chance to watch all the scenery along the way to the hotel" "Betol jugak kata kome tu..." kata Dave.. sempat la dia bercerita pasal Paul Walker kejap... "That was INSANE, man...!!" seloka Dave dengan penuh semangat.. haha.. lepaih tu, sambil2 drive, Dave pun tunjuk la landmark2 yg menarik2 sepanjang perjalanan tu...

Smpi kt hotel kol 1 lbey kot asanya.. Hotel ak duduk tu nama dia Candlewood Suites, Sand Canyon.... And then cepat2 check in psl da letih bebeno... tapi masa check in tu ak tnya kt receptionist tu ada x guest nama Jessica Alba, dia cakap ada, tp dia xbley gtau no bilik psl guest tu xda kt hotel lagi.. sebab utama ak tanya guest Jessica Alba nie adalaha kerana aku bakal berkongsi kereta dgn guest nie.. So, klu xdpt contact guest nie, mmg xg kojer la jawabnya... haha... Sampai jer bilik, terus kemas2 ckit, then boom tidoq.. pastu bangun jap dalam kol 5 something, dah golap wei... sebab winter season.. lol then time bangun tu la baru perasan, ak terlupa satu benda yg sangat penting sekali klu nk travel luar negara... Travel Adapter.. Kusut gak la xda cara nk charge laptop ngan mobile phone.. so pkir punya pikir, ak pun try tanya receptionist klu boleh pinjam Travel Adapter ka x... Tapi saaaiiiiiyaaaannnnngg... receptionist kata xda plak travel adapter.. so dengan hampa ak balik bilik, masak magi, tgok movie, tdo......~~~~~

"Esok da start kerja" kataku di dalam hati....
