#marchmorefun GUINNESS St Patrick's 2014 Celebration in KK!

Thank God for a little get together at the ‘March More Fun’ month after all the craziness the month has witnessed.

For those of you who are wondering what Saint Patrick's Day is allllll about, this is a holiday celebrated annually on the 17th March in remembrance on the life of the famous patron saint of Ireland, Saint Patrick. From the early golden years, the annual activities for this celebration particularly involves public parades and festivals, céilithe, and the wearing of green attire or shamrock, not to forget the tradition - beer chugs.

I still remember two years back when I walked pass a bar for a drink date with my collegemates. As I walked by, I was attracted by these festive decorationas and there were plenty of green clover around and the attendants were all dressed up fancy in their green uniforms! Back then, the only thing I knew was that they were celebrating St.Patrick’s Day. I pulled my friends over and insisted to have our drinks there instead of our usual hangout place. It was great atmosphere. People seemed to be having so much fun, some were cheering for the street performers, some were playing pool, some of them were holding a pint of beer on their hand all night long. That was my first time witnessing the celebration of St. Patrick’s Day, what a sight.

It’s amazing how we still keep the tradition of celebrating the holy St.Patrick’s Day nowadays. 

This year St. Patrick’s Day celebration in town is hosted by the World’s favourite black brew GUINNESS®.   True to the theme of ‘March More Fun’, the celebration of all things green had gathered up Guinness fans together into raising a pint in selected participating outlets across Sabah. Not forgetting to mention the countdown towards the official St Patrick’s Day was truly a spectacular one as Guinness had a roving party in different popular drinkeries around the city including those located around KK Waterfront,Warisan Square, Metro Town as well as KK Times Square.


Participating outlets include Cock & Bull Bistro, Shamrock Irish Pub, Novus Karaoke and BarTzar at KK Waterfront, Oyster Bar and Hot Rod at Warisan Square, Bull Dog at Metro Town, Jarrod & Rawlins and Mr.Ho’s Fine Foods at KK Times Square.

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...

From Subang to Adelaide

Listening to - Jason Wade You Belong To Me In about 3 months, I'll be separated with Daren. He could only make it to the last year, but since I'm back then he would probably revise everything. Watching Marley & Me just now didn't help, of course it worsen my situation. I can't find a reason to be excited eventhough I should like everyone else, since it's a new place, new friends. But to me, home is where my heart is and clearly it follows wherever he goes. When I was walking alone to Section 14 to buy some food just now, I almost cried remembering all the good memories we've shared. The wonderful things he has done for me, the beautiful things he has said to me it's the kind of pain that I know will reopen once I'm there all to myself. I cannot describe that boy's contribution to my growth. He has his remarkable ways in handling life, and I've always looked up at him for being the sweetest person any girl could have ever met. I've done lo...

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 ...
