Auld Lang Syne

I want it , I got it! Ha,ha. No more toffee nut latte for me for 2010! I’m very very much looking forward to 2011! Should Old Acquaintance be forgot, and never thought upon; The flames of Love extinguished, and fully past and gone: Is thy sweet Heart now grown so cold, that loving Breast…

1Malaysia? I rather just called it Malaysia

Ibrahim was spot-on when he said Peninsular Malaysians were only familiar with very few communities from Sabah and Sarawak. When The Star editors met on Wednesday evening to pick the front page photo for the Thursday edition, none of us Semenanjung folks could confidently identify the ethnic groups represented by the four pretty girls standing in front…

Sayang Kinabalu

I am feeling a little patriotic today, due to the 16 September 1963 that marked the formation of Malaysia (British North Borneo, Sarawak, Singapore and The Federation of Malaya) and later Singapore was expelled from Malaysia in 9 August 1965. Upon the merging of the independent entities to form ‘Malaysia’, a 20-points agreement/memorandum drawn up…

Langkawi!

Hey ya all! I’ve been caught up with the hectic life of preparing a thesis research proposal. Yep. I redo my topic, change it to more into heat island effect/global warming issue by looking into the hardscape of the outdoor spaces. I’ll blog about it later on, when I get sufficient knowledge on the issue….

Hard Rock Penang!

After 5 days of sickness and misery, I finally decided to have a night out with my fellow classmates for a movie. OK, the movie we watched wasn’t that great. I think I’m getting back my sickness, watching the wolfman. Ha,ha. and it was sooooo n0’s(n=1,2,…,8). I mean, the sound effect and all. I know,…

Goodbye 2009, hello 2010

Hello all! Blogging from Xiamen China, I managed to penetrate the great firewall of China but only for wordpress, I have yet to get access to twitter & facebook. Oh well. Coming down to the end of 2009 & I shall say, I had a good run & good struggle in 2009. To list everything…

Studio, finale

This been killing me this week. Thanks to 1000mg shots of ascorbic acid & caffeine. Burning the night oil has been pushed to the maximum. Pray that I will stay well until the end of final exam for this semester. Or else, pray hard my 24 years of intelligence to help me to bull shit…

Geez!

I have finally found my g-spot in Penang! Orgasm reached when i enter the black plush passage that leads me to another world, where everything looks (and feels) hot and juicy. hahahahah! OK, do not think differently now, as I am describing the live jazz lounge & bar in Penang. 🙂 tee,hee. Gotcha! Calling jazz enthusiast! Let’s…

Seoul Garden, Gurney

Yep. Break fast with the rest of M.LA clan & other archi, PM, etc people at Gurney Plaza. I ate the hell outta my normal portion. It’s a steamboat, all-you-can-eat buffet & we managed to get a student price. nyeh nyeh. Seriously I am still full from the feast & I totally love, cooking for…

I was doing alright

Ah. Just as my facebook status update: I think my biological clock gone haywire. It’s wierd. I used to wake up late when I was back in KK but here, I wake up even before then sun rise! Ha,ha. I am still confused on when the sun rise n when the sun set. I can…

Island Hopping @ TAR Park

Island-hopping with dear Piare & her clan from Peninsular! At first I wanted to bring them to Manukan Island but soon end up to Mamutik Island & Sapi Island. I tried Parasailing today! One Word: AWESOME! 🙂 Completed another task: Snorkeling alone without any dive master to help me at Sapi Island. I managed to…

Final Decision

I’m moving to Penang this July 2009. There! I had a conversation with my employer and tendering my resignation just now. I told the whole clan yesterday too & somehow it slipped to her ears yesterday. So when I hand-in the resignation letter, she accepted it calmly. I know it’s such a shame to let go of…

Cultural Appreciation: The Rungus

I celebrate Kaamatan today at Kadazan-Dusun Cultural Association (KDCA)’s Hongkod Koisaan, Penampang. Dang, should have followed my dad, he get to enter the hall with fellow VIP while me stucked outside, under the sun. 🙂 I love the unity and the diversity of Sabahan ethnicity. We don’t segregate each other according to race but we…
