Baby's Day

I wanted to do a lot more different things for you and with you since this is my first time celebrating your day, but I realized you're so much more than a celebration of a day..

It's funny how this is your special day but everytime these special occasions come near, it's as if I'm the one celebrating. If you must know, I didn't have much when I first came here, the only thing I had was my conscience. Slowly I met great people, amazing friendships, splendid companionship but there's always something missing. I would walk alone by myself after college to home, I would go to parties myself and what's worst I would eat dinner myself thinking, this is fine. Sure, it felt good to do things alone once in a while, but this is when these long lines make sense; I celebrated something more when you celebrate something else... YOU.

You're beautiful when you're most vulnerable, yet the hardest to be close with when you confine yourselves from things that bother you. You're like a book, something I fell hard from the first introduction but something I loved even more after reading who you are. You are selfless, you gave me so many things in life that I struggle so hard to understand, yet you believe in me, us even when the whole world doesn't. You shared with me a whole new level of love, a whole new way to love. You really did.

Dear baby, I have a million and one dreams, and I personally think you are the only dream that is evergreen. So today, everyone shall know that you're day is on the 8th of July! Remember baby, it's not just a birthday. It's YOUR day.

From my computer desk in the office (my laptop still haven't been fixed), despite everything:

Have a relaxing filled with sincere laughters birthday!



Reminders:
  • Keep away from anything depressing or whatever that will remind you of things that makes you sad
  • No frowns or I will squish your balls, and you know I dare to
  • No thinking of me first, you first!
  • No looking to the mirror and say 'baby, I'm damn fat la' or I will take all the food for the day and eat with Nolen and Anucia only
  • All your lame jokes will be appreciated highly today

last but never the least, I LOVE YOU and this one's not only for today but for every breath I take. *start puking people, go ahead*

Love,
Jacqueline Rowena @ 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 ...
