Kellie's Castle

Back in December last year, I have the chance to visit one of the historical places in Malaysia - Kellie’s Castle. The sole reason I visited the place because I have been through it for a few times in the past every time I am fetching my sister at UiTM Seri Iskandar.

Kellie’s Castle is located in Batu Gajah, which is about a two-hour drive from Kuala Lumpur, and a 30-minute drive from Ipoh town to Jalan Gopeng. You can also take the Electric Train Service from KL to Ipoh.

The unfinished, ruined mansion known as Kellie’s Castle was built by William Kellie Smith, a Scottish planter from Scotland. Smith builds the building as a symbol of love for his beloved wife. Some sources said it is a gift for his son.

The unfinished mansion consists of two houses, which is, Kellas House and Kellie’s House. However, only Kellie’s house was able to finish the constructions before the death of Smith.

The building consists of rooms, wine cellar, elevator shaft and six storey tower. Some of the rooms have been fitted with furniture so you get to see what they would have been like if the construction had been completed.

TOURIST ATTRACTIONS

Kellie's Castle is now a popular local tourist attraction, with some believing it to be haunted situated beside the Raya River (Sungai Raya), which is a small creek to the Kinta River.

From the entrance, you will be greeted by a few stalls selling craft, souvenir, and foods. There will be also huge logo written ‘Kellie Castle right before the entrance to the castle.

To get to the main building visitors have to pay entrance fee which is RM5 for Malaysian adult and have to climb the stairs to reach the main site of the house.

The mansion became tourist attractions because of the architecture and since it is believed to be haunted. Both the castle interior and gardens are also good for taking your pre-wedding shots so it might appeal to couples and photography fans, too.

EXPECTATION VS REALITY

I am not going to lie that I was a little disappointed when I reach the historic site. It is good enough because the place not just become the hot attraction for Malaysian but also foreign tourist. What disappointed me was the place did not maintain very well.

Yes, I agree that it is a historic place and perhaps one of the reason the authority keeping in that way was to make visitors feel the horror atmosphere because the castle is associated with many ghost stories. Aside from being mentioned in the history books, there is nothing much to see in the mansion itself. With lots of spider web in every single room and some of the areas such as the living room where people cannot access, there is nothing more.

Reminder to those who loves buying social media medications

Don't trust online seller that sells unauthorised medication or supplement. If you think you are not feeling healthy, go and ask the doctor instead. It is not that expensive especially if you go to the public hospital, it is only RM1 for registration. It is better to prevent than curing.

Be The Light by One Ok Rock

The song is tribute to the Tohoko Tsunami in 2011 to give hope for those affected by the disasters. Hope you will enjoy the song and take time to value everyone in your life.

Just the thought of another day
How did we end up this way
What did we do wrong?
God

Even though the days go on
So far, so far away from
It seems so close

Always weighing on my shoulder
A time like no other
It all changed on that day
Sadness and so much pain

You can touch the sorrow here
I don’t know what to blame
I just watch and watch again
O...

Even though the days go on
So far, so far away from
It seems so close

Even though the days go on
So far, so far away from
It seems so close

What did it leave behind?
What did it take from us and wash away?
It may be long
But with our hearts start a new
And keep it up and not give up
With our heads held high

You have seen hell and made it back again
How to forget? We can’t forget
The lives that were lost along the way
And then you realize that wherever you go
There you are
Time won’t stop
So we keep moving on

Yesterday’s night turns to light
Tomorrow’s night returns to light
O... Be the light

Always weighing on my shoulder
A time like no other
It all changed on that day
Sadness and so much pain

Anyone can close their eyes
Pretend that nothing is wrong
Open your eyes
And look for light
O...

What did it leave behind?
What did it take from us and wash away?
It may be long
But with our hearts start a new
And keep it up and not give up
With our heads held high

Yeah, yeah...

You have seen hell and made it back again
How to forget? We can’t forget
The lives that were lost along the way
And then you realize that wherever you go
There you are
Time won’t stop
So we keep moving on

Yesterday’s night turns to light
Tomorrow’s night returns to light
O... Be the light

Some days just pass by and
Some days are unforgettable
We can’t choose the reason why
But we can choose what to do from the day after
So with that hope, with that determination
Let’s make tomorrow a brighter and better day

O...
Yeah...
O...
Yeah... Yeah...
Uh Ooo...

We Are by One Ok Rock

We are, we are
We are, we are

They think that we're no one
We're nothing, not sorry
They push us
It's too late, it's too late
Not going back
They think that we are made up
Of all of our failures
They think we are foolish
And that's how the story goes

They stand for nothing
They're lifeless and cold
Anything they say
Will never break our hearts of gold

When you're standing on the edge
So young and hopeless
Got demons in your head
We are, we are
No ground beneath your feet
Not here to hold you
'Cause we are, we are
The colors in the dark

Mental Health : Depression

When we talk about depression people usually associated it with stress. This is because stress and depression since it shares many similarities which are both involve emotional feelings. For example, my friends will say 'I am depressed' instead of 'I am stress' whenever they're not able to complete the assessment given by lecturers. From the situation, it is definitely stress because once they finished the task the feeling they felt at the time will vanish and replaced by happiness or relax the situation.

However, depression is far more serious because it's a mental disorder and will stay a long time with the person due to bad things happened to them in the past. Depression usually associated with feelings of sadness or hopelessness over a long period of time that doesn’t go away.

A person who has depression always looks exhaustion, lack of energy and motivation, continuous guilt or shame. They also have rapid mood swings, from anger to rage, change in appetite, losing or gaining weight. The most dangerous is suicidal thoughts which many have done it in the past.

The cause of depression is varied from the environment to the situation of a person. One may be in the depression due to the constant pressure from the parents to excel in everything such as studies and work. The other could be the guilt over something happened in the past such as deaths of the person they love.

The treatment for depression includes seeking professional medical help from a physician, counsellor or therapist. Avoid self-medicating with alcohol and drugs. They must exercise, eat healthily, meditate, have a proper sleep, don't isolate themselves, maintain healthy relationships with friends and family and take medication from a doctor.
