It was a tuesday morning, and mama said to me that I’m going to accompany her to Pasir Puteh, Kelantan. No need to story how I manage to get to Kelantan, but I stayed there for a week.
There was this bright day, I went to Jeram Pasu waterfall which located at Padang Pak Amat. I went there because I felt so boring and I want to go for a refresh, but grandma forbid me because I was alone. Therefore, I just took a walk around.
Being a geology student, I tried to study about the waterfall outcrop, briefly. I had done no homework about this place, so I had no idea where to start.
Amazingly, the soil around the area is reddish and has a laterite based features. Perhaps it contained high percentage of hematite or iron oxides. The feature from nearby quarry represents the structure of the soil and I can simply assume that the whole mountain around the waterfall are having look-alike feature. Does this meant that the mountain (hill) is still new? They are hardly in hard rock form, and mostly brittle and fragile.
However, the waterfall itself is made of hard rock structure, of course. Because, without hard rock, the place will collapse within years or days and there won’t be such place called ‘waterfall’ over here. The rocks which build up the waterfall were highly based of quartz. There were joints and fractures all over the place.
This sketch was drew by my only younger sister, Fatimah which currently continuing her studies in medicine at Egypt. She said she missed me, thus she remembered this event and at instance she drew it just to make sure she’s not going to forget it.
Haha!
At first, I planned not to go back to Shah Alam for my winter break. However my mom insisted. I went back to Shah Alam on 23rd June 2009.
It was my new experience of holiday. I went to Hill’s house and watch malay drama with her family until midnight. I did everything without plan. Haha. I was nearby her place, and in seconds I was on phone with her and asked her if I can meet her. LOL.
Ok, how should I start or where should I start? Hmm.
I departed from Shah Alam on Thursday night, a day earlier than what I have originally planned. On Wednesday, I bought a return bus ticket. The first plan was Mutiara, but the sales person was not there. I have waited for quite sometime, yet there was still no one. Thus, I bought e.Budaya instead. Hohoho. The trip to Pasir Puteh was killing me! The bus was speeding and breaking. WTH!? I barely slept because I was being conscious incase if anything happened.
Well, today I arrived safely in Shah Alam at 5.30 am.
I’ll story to all of you later, about what happened in Pasir Puteh, Kelantan.
Till later!
