I'll be 20?

At the end of the year, it's not about what happened. It's how you feel towards those things that happened.

These were my last year's resolutions. Come to think about it, it looks like I will never ever escape from these self-evaluation resolutions. In the name of "better-ing" myself, I find this exercise inevitable.

2007's resolutions:

a) STUDIES. nothing else comes first than my studies this year:
I really did dedicated myself last year to my studies. I was never last minute, I was always punctual, I disciplined myself to a bed-time, I read as much books as I can, I tried not to loiter around and most importantly; library, labs and the media hubs were my office. *wink* I like the nerdy me. I do.

b) less SHOPPING.
*pretending not to see this* I admit, I failed this one.

c) keep my friends close and ignore the enemies. Like totally!
I like living in a nutshell. I dont give two-shits of those who would bring me down or not appreciative of my contribution. I dont like having the idea of having my enemies closer. Let them live their lives, and let me live mine. Unfortunately, that didn't happened this year. I breathed their breath. I walked their paths. How the hell can I run from them? So I failed this one too.

d) make more friends. make big connection, it's always helpful!
I did make more friends. But I like to believe that I can be secluded from other people when I want too. I'm not so much into getting attention. But I did inevitably make more friends along the way. Weee!

e) lie only when necessary.
I practiced this everyday, shame on you for not doing the same thing. 'nuff said.

f) take care of my Body, keep healthy.
For the 18th million times, I did not went on a diet-frenzy. I DID NOT. I just cut-down on fries, junk foods, carbonated drinks, roti-canais etc etc. I'm still having my normal meal of rice and dishes and of course, booze. If you really wanna know, I lost 5 kgs this year after checking with my not-so-reliable weighing machine last monday.

g) keep my mouth SHUT if there's nothing GOOD to say.
and so I did. shits replied with a shit will cause bigger shits. I better keep mean things to myself.

h) less gossiping.
I failed this one miserably. Although I wasn't the sender of all the news and gossips, I've turned into a very enthusiast gossips end-receiver! I've accepted the fact that I'm only human and it's not wrong if I knew about them hot stories as long as I keep it to myself after that. Can someone please agree with the in-denial-me on this?

i) choose the chances given and grab them, never to grab all.
And I did.

j) have fun living!
Yes & No. I did stuck my nose to the books all the time and I do admit that my pocket money turned into a lifetime saving for not going out often, but I had my occasional entertainments, which involved close acquaintainces which I love most. I believed in too much of a good thing is also not a good thing. Keep it balanced baby!

Dont worry, will ask Magic 8 Ball whether this year will be better.

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...

One Night at Manukan Island at Sutera Sanctuary Lodge

We were supposed to go somewhere for Jessy's birthday, I wasn't quite sure how we decided on the island, but that was a pretty sweet decision. By day, the island was brimming with tourists and families, but by evening as the sun sets colouring the sky, it becomes a quiet isolation and absolutely stunning to enjoy an evening walk by. If you ever had the chance to stay overnight in a small island, please try it. We stayed at Sutera Sanctuary Lodges, cost us about RM 500nett for three of us. We woke up slightly earlier around 9am to enjoy the beach and swim when no one was there yet. Well Jessy did the swimming. I had a wedding to keep my tan lines even the week after so I kinda hid from the sun 😌 The unit though, almost chalet like was quite huge! The bathroom itself felt like an entire unit, with unique tiles that go right up to the top. Very luxurious. And. it. has. windows. looking. out. the. room! Each unit has its own balcony, which makes a perfect place ...
