Nessa said...

Anny ~ You're welcome :) You can still catch the repeats ya. I hope so too... another week to go, I've swarms of butterflies in my stomach!!

Nessa said...

Diya ~ Sori ya, I had to take it out (it's not deleted, still in my draft) cos the advertiser had problems with the coding. I will re-publish the post once I tweak a few things here and there :)

rajin ba ko nie nessa..if i miss it i will terus check from your blog..aiyo..why la fuzie took the challenge..i know for sure she won't be able to do it..AD should have done it..i like their coolnest..but happy ida and tania qualified

mat dingo said...

You know, I was all the while secretly rooting for AD & Fuzzie in the past but yesterday they pissed me off!

They had the greatest chance of their life when that Sam fellow was given a penalty 4 hour penalty, they should have pushed on and not give up. Even doing that rope thing one inch at a time pun would have been enough to make it under 4 hours but no, they just plain gave up!

I say serves them right to get eliminated. Look at Ida & Tania, they were no hoppers but they NEVER gave up and look where they are. Even if they don't win, I'm mighty proud of them ...

Mama Mia said...

For the 1st time, I missed last nite's episode. Sempat tingu yg hujung2 sj..misti mo tingu repeat ni.

Yey! Ida & Tania made it to rthe finale! So proud of them.

Maybe if A.D did the road block, it'll be a different story kan. Why ar when the task required stamina, it's always Fuzzie who do it..like climbing the tower in Macau..

chegu carol said...

yay to ida and tania!!!
*chicken dance juga*

but i must say, ida & tania's sense of direction is superb oh. or adakah they were just lucky to sail through Oman without byk halangan unlike the others?

tia sabar tnggu next week but sedih jg bcos mau habis sdh :(

Sia pun btul2 heran knapa la bukan si A.D yang buat the challenge... bikin geram btul kan. Sayang oh ada 4 hours to catch up, gone up in smoke just like dat! Grrr...

Nessa said...

Mat Dingo ~ Well, if you must know, I was oso rooting for them but they reali disappoint me last week :(

I never expected Ida & Tania to go this far, I thot they would last 3 or 4 legs but they've proved me wrong. All the best to them!

Nessa said...

Mama Mia ~ Don wori, banyak dia punya repeats tu.. sampat lagi catch up tu before the finale this Thursday :)

Yeah, I'm sure A.D. would have been able to complete the task easily. The question is... why la she didn't do it??

Nessa said...

Carol ~ Hehe.. mari berchicken dance sama-sama! :D

Yup, they're pretty good with directions. Except the last one (going to Wadi Tanuf). Itula kan, mo abis suda... but still got the Amazing Race ba (yang American version punya). Sia layan seja... hehe
