An extra place: My house in Kelantan

Creek House.

This my house in Kelantan that was completed in 2006. We call it the 'Creek House' because there is a creek at the back of the house. In malay we called it 'Rumah Parit' because there is a parit at the back of the house. I like this house even though it is one storey and the design of the house is boring. This house was design by my father and there is no architect involved in designing this house even my sister who is an architect did not involved. My sister was very angry when she got to know that my father is building the house without her permission. She has designed a house look like a mansion and it is really nice but my father told her that the contractor in Kelantan will not be able to build that kind of house. It will be very expensive too. My sister has included shooting range, horse track and swimming pool in her design but too bad for her. We did have a horse track in the end but it is not really round. Its shaped like number 8.

Horse Track

But we do not have a swimming pool but we have build a jetty at the back of the house because there is a very small river there. It is not for the boat but it is built for fishing.

My house has a lot of privacy since it is gated by 11 feet wall around the half an acre land. Actually, the cost of building the wall is more expensive than the house. At the back of the house, we just built a horse stable that can be occupied up to 4 horses. So far we only have 2 so my uncle plan to put a real tall horse in one of our stable. We also bought a second hand cub to pull the horse by a car and modified it so that it looks better. We paint the cub pink colour and it looks really cute. We bought a second hand 1997 Mitsubishi Pajero car in KL that was previously belong to TM company. The car was brought to Kelantan then we respray it to white colour. It looks new and cool in white colour. My uncle and I use the Pajero very heavily. We use it to drive at the beach, in the farm and it got stuck in the mud. I wish i got the picture of it to show it. My father said that this car is really good and it is really worth his money. I asked my father to bring our Land Rover Discovery to off road but my father disagreed. Ok, I got tution now.
