Panjat Batu


I can feel my muscles tense-ing now. I can feel the pain of my joints now and I swear to God, strangely, I want to try it again. I cant believe we pay to climb walls. I realized playing with heights have always been expensive, isn't it?

Eiffel Tower, Roller Coasters, Rock-Climbing?

Honestly, this is my first time ever climbing walls. I mean profesional certified rock climbing as such, because technically, climbing trees and bedroom windows back when I was in the "jungle" in Sabah have never been approved it's safety. *widens eyes*


It was sort of a past-time back when I was younger, when congkak and monopoly were getting predictable, I decided to climb trees and I could relate to it. Yes everyone, I used to climb trees with my brother when I was still "small" (ehem) and God-knows-how-kids-can-be-so "energetic". I bet even the ants were scared and confused of me, I dont look like monkey but acted like one right.

Well, sweets was really cute today. I finally understood how ridiculous wedgie can feel and chastity stucked upon us. We had to wear the (omg, screw the name of the thing even though i went for the blardy long course) thing to control the climbers, as belayers. If there's one thing that I like and dislike about rock climbing, is that everything's emphasized. And I'm saying this in behalf of all the boys in the world. Everything's emphaSIZEd. It is only an advantage, because, well, uhm, sweets, uhm, was there. *wink


The usual suspects, Kerry, Audreyh, Sway & Boo this time around!: Lee, Shaneil, Denise, Ryan, Sweets and I went for it today. And honestly, that's by far the most physical hard work I've done in few months.


The Belayer instructor was darn cool. He was freaking hillarious and he kept getting our names wrong. He called sweets and I, slightly... "plus size" I may call it, and last but not least he was freaking dancing and singing right infront of us like there's no tomorrow to some of the old songs, which only he himself is old enough to know them.


Sorry, I dont have much pictures to show it to you guys, I was so engrossed to defeat the stones on the wall, I managed to only took a picture of sweets trying to climb a part of a wall. It was quite hard for us, as we only started climbing few hours prior, so I personally think he did awesome.

I was skeptical to let him climb as his right hand was still in the magic stage of coming out anytime from it's shoulder, so I was being very selfish initially, thinking too hard on his safety. I was so much happier now knowing that he's having fun climbing walls and stepping on stones today, that I swore to myself that I'll be there regardless if he wants to play or do some funny games which requires me to take a chill pill, and let boys be boys, and daren be daren :)


Oh my gosh, I cant feel my arms now. I really cant.

Love,
Jacqkie.

Pulau Sapi @ Tunku Abdul Rahman Parks

Before I proceed to my write up on Pulau Sapi, let me do the duty to carefully explain to you why there are so many people talking about so many islands at the mention of the word, Sabah. Reason why I'm doing so is because whenever people visit KK City, they have very limited time in exploring most of the natural gorgeous attractions, and sometimes ended up just moving around KK City. And when one does that, people would usually end up asking, why are there so many mentions of islands when we get to experience none?  As you can see from the previous Matthew Paul map below; Sabah is situated close to top north of the Borneo Island. That said, it's a privilege to say that tons of islands are under the local towns and cities surrounding the shores of this particular part of Borneo island. From Sipitang (look out from South left), imagine yourself  "walking" from the Sipitang's shore / beach walk up slowly to Menumbuk, Kuala Penyu, Pulau Tiga, Kota Kinabalu, Tun

Pulau Mantanani // Mantanani Island

I started off my 10 day break with a day trip to Mantanani. I wanted to visit Mantanani for THE LONGEST TIME, but couldn’t get around doing so all these while, either I haven’t saved up enough or basically, just haven’t got the weekends to spare it with.   Some folks call it the mermaid island because of the dugong sightings underwater – which is seriously magical. Some folks even say you could catch a glimpse of dolphins. They’ve had photos with it, but I personally have never seen them before.  Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to share with you why this trip was important.    If you see the map above, I’ve yellow squared Mantanani Island in comparison to the journey from Kota Kinabalu. If you’re not a map kind of person, that is --- quite far. Not Sipadan (Tawau, Sandakan, Lahad Datu kind of far) but far enough to be a put off to some locals at times. Previously, you’d have to drive up north for approximately 1.5 hours, or take a bus to Kota Belud, to
