~BONUS~ **Academic Trip to Langkawi **

We were excited when Dr. Hafizal first told us that we will be having a studio academic trip to Langkawi which was held on 23-25/11/2013, after the submission of project 6(a) and 6(b).

It was a great release for all of us since we had stay overnight at studio for the previous project almost every night.

Let me recall what we have done at the trip~

~~**FLASHBACK**~~

The very first day, we departed from Kuala Perlis Jetty after gathered at Padang Kawad, USM.

It was not the first time I boarded on ferry but I felt dizzy after reached at Langkawi Island.

After we taken our lunch, we moved to Dataran Lang for the first activity : 

Man-made structure sketching

Most of the students chose the landmark of Langkawi : Eagle Square, but me and my friends had chosen a bridge connected from Dataran Lang to the Jetty for our man-made structure sketching. 

I not sure that is my sketching was alright since I used pencil colours in my man-made structure drawing. 

*P/S: Sorry for no picture shown for my drawing due to the submission of drawing*

We were then accommodate to different villa/homestay and I were arranged to stay at Rainbow Homestay with other Chinese girls.

Time to take a nap and ready for the BBQ party at night along the coast

While waiting for the food to be served, we grouped according to majors for a sharing session with lecturers.

Then, we discuss about performance session which will be held after dinner.

Around 10pm, finally our foods are ready!!!!!

Regarding to the performance, QS students and CM students had a dancing performance which got 'BOOOOO' from the lecturers~ How sad =(

Second day,

we went to Dayang Bunting Island, Singa Besar Island and lastly the Beras Basah Island.
