.030608. KK Trip Day 5-6 @ Labuan

*remember this scene?? LOL.. where i left off*

Woooot~ Back to my long lost but not forgotten KK Trip post!! Hehehe... I'm finally here to the last day of my trip though. Or maybe the 2nd last and the last.

Final destination was none other than Labuan!!

*land of duty freeeeeessss*

*arrival hall at labuan jetty*

*this is what you get in islands!!*

*temptations you can't resist coz itz cheaper than your mineral water*

Land of seafood and land of duty free!! There's nothing much you can do in duty free islands like langkawi or labuan!! So what we do?? You guyz figure it out!!

More Fun At The Beach...

.010608. KK Trip Day 4 Pt 3 @ Manukan Beach

Short-Note: Anyone going for "Cat Got Your Tongue #3" @ Heritage Mansion tonight?? See you people there at 10.00pm!! Remember to bring your TOY!! haha..

More adventure, water sports @ Manukan Beach. Next up was parasailing and it was my first time again. Usually I thought banana boats and parasailing was like by the beach side. But not in Sabah coz both of the rides was in the middle of the sea (not literally though) haha..

But it was fun!! I partnered Daniel to balance up the weight but still managed to spoil the rolling motor!! ahahha... =D aiyoman with kweiyee and jyhyian with seowwei!! It's really cool being hung up there looking across the ocean and feeling the breeze hitting gently against your face and the best part is of course when they lowered us down and drag us against the sea water.

Here's the fun i meant...

*so tired after the banana boat ride... seriously, it's tiring*

*tiredness doesn't stop me from more fun!!

*weeeeee!!! lets go!!!*

*yeahooo!!! it'z so cool, so nice up there!!*

*omg!! shark!! plz dun come!!*

Went back to the beach after a really cool parasailing experience and it was really really hot that day!! Thought of snokerling though but we saw this lady kena ATTACKED BY JELLYFISH!! So, we decided to just sit by the beach, under the shade and rest ourselves. I went around to shoot some photos but didn't get to take any nice ones. *sadzzz*

*too tired to go snokerling d*

*trying something new*

*so sien wan??? balik lorzz....*

*photo from vic's camera, just before we left for KK jetty*

*say bye to manukan beach*

*hahaha... guess where im heading next???*

After fun at the beach, we went back to our hotel rooms clean up and makan seafood. (too bad the photos not nice... dowan to show) And the next day (020608) 5 of us parted ways with the rest and we headed somewhere else... Any wild guess?? =D

Fun At Manukan Beach!!

.010608. KK Trip Day 4 Pt 3 @ Manukan Beach

Made of Honour done and I was deciding again on Manukan Beach vs Gasoline, Lookout Point!! Hahaha.. Too much photos from KK Trip already so i better update some first. And so, we were off to Manukan Beach which is just 15 minutes away from Mamutik Beach. Manukan Beach is supposingly famous for the longest beach. There were many people there and the amount of JELLYFISH!! is just as much!! haha =D

So, we didnt snokerl but ventured into some WaterSports!! Jon, our negotiator, talked to the "fella" and managed to get good price for both Banana Boat ride and also ParaSailing. Believe it or not it was my first experience in both sports!! And it was really really expensive!!

Anyway, let the fun begin!!

*reached manukan beach @ +- 12.30pm?*

*thank God for the good good weather!!*

*something caught chungsik's aka aiyoman attention*

*OMG!! I didnt know banana boat in the middle of the sea wan!!*

*don care la!! die die la!! just do it!!*

*and we were off!!! weeeeee... damn nice kan?*

*omg!! got shark!!! how????*

*once again!! the water damn crystal clear lo!!*

*curi this go snokerl can?*

*more fun and exciting action coming up!!*

Guess what's coming up next??? more fun and more food!! =D

Short-Note: Cat Got Your Tongue #3 tomorrow @ Heritage Mansion. Happening at 10pm onwards!! See you people there!! =D

Goodbye Mamutik Beach!

.010608. KK Trip Day 4 Pt 2, Leaving Mamutik Beach

Short-Note: Will be going to Lookout Point tonight for some small gathering dinner!! Anyone going there tonight?? See ya there!! =D

Here are some random photos from Mamutik Beach. Didn't take any photos of us doing snokerling though coz none of our camera is waterproof!! haha.. It was super hot that day and all of us was attacked by baby jellyfish during our snokerl. There's this wierd pink fish who also attacked some of us on the head!! haha.. damn funny..

But the experience of snokerling was pretty cool and great!! Hoping to take up diving soon. Anyone wanna join me?? =D Pulau Sipadan should be one of the best spot in the world for diving kan??

Well, here are my random photos from Mamutik Beach...

*sifu took this photo for us, sher n me*

*can't believe my eye seeing this!! didn't know manutd sponsored sabah boats too!*

*and of course, my favourite pose!! =p*

*time to leave our first beach and head to the next one*

And so, after a fun time snokerling, it was time to move on to the next beach!! There I personally had more fun!! I was told the next beach we were going has the longest beach or something like that.

*malukan beach!! here i come!!*

More fun coming up...

I Love Da Beach!!

.010608. KK Trip Day 4 @ Mamutik Island

And so, thanks to Fabian, aiyoman's hometown friend who helped us settled all the neccessary arrangements for our snokerling trip! First we headed to Mamutik Island which is just 20 minutes away from KK jetty. Thank God, it was a bright and sunny day! =D (so sunny till we have sunburn!!)

.110608. KK Trip Day 4 @ The Beach

Here's a preview of my trip by the beach at Kota Kinabalu. More photos tomorrow! hehehe

*sabah beaches is simply the best!!!*

Kota Kinabalu Expedition Begins...

.290508. Day 1 @ Kota Kinabalu

As written in my previous post, I was away for 6 days for my first ever Mount Kinabalu Expedition (though I'm not sure if there's a second time) with my 10 other unimates. All of us left for LCCT at about 4.15 am since our flight was 6.50am. In the midst of our excitement, there's still a question that kept haunting us, "Are we seriously ready for the climb??" (not applicable to Melvyn though)

*first 3: vic, myself and (melvyn the steady one)*

*partner 4 & 5: sher and jyhyian*

*adventurer nombor 6 a.k.a my sifu: brian*

*trio 7, 8, and 9: greyfish, aiyoman & sotong*

*man utd freak 10 and 11: jon & daniel (with me)*

*and so my back pack weighs as above!!*

*cantik kan the view outside??? love it!*

And so our plane departed quite punctually at 6.50am and KK, HERE WE COME!!! The plane was rather full as we were one of the last group to move in and the best part is a stranger sat next to me was wearing a red Man Utd jacket!!! Wooooo~ *cheerz* to Man Utd for a superb season again with a double!! Reached KK at about 9am and straight checked-in into this backpacker stay called "Borneo Adventure Centre & Lodge", (quite a cool place to stay though), after which we then headed to KDCA (some cultural place) to witness the pre-celebration of the Kadazan Harvest Festival (the actual day was the next day).

We makaned our first meal there, we walked around and see the cultural heritage of the Kadazan people. The setting was pretty, weather was great (freaking hot) and we managed to spot some beautiful people doing their cultural activities such as doing handicrafts, playing musical instruments and the best part is we saw this kids playing with some worm which they called "ulat putut" found in those huge sago tree trunk. My dad say is termite queen and it was edible. *yucks*

*this is KK town*

*Our first stop @ Kadazan Dusun Cultural Association*

*woooo.... hungry nyer!!*

*this is my first meal in Sabah*

*jom makan sama sama!!*

*some big gong attached to the KDCA wall*

*a group photo of course @ KDCA*

*ehh... wait la, dun walk so fast up there!*

*this is KDCA. Nice kan?*

*let me hide first! - climbing stairs under the scorching sun*

*spot this lil girl playing with that yucky "ulat putut"*

*a photo of us together with the talented musician kids*

Guess what?? Just as I was busy taking photos, suddenly kena PUNKED by my bunch of kawanz!! *grinzz* Was asked by one of the event people to perform a song for the public when I turned around to join my friends for a rest. *aiksss* I was like, WTH??? So there I go choosing song from this songbook and finally made up my mind to sing "Words" by Bee Gees. And of course, later JyhYian also kena punked by singing "Hey Jude" by the Beatles.

*me @ KDCA kena punked!!*

I think that's all for Part 1 - Day 1. Stay tuned for Part 2 - Day 1 very soon. *cheerz* people!!
