Perhentian Islands (Long Beach) 2011

LATEST UPDATE JULY 2014:    Just came back from a 5 Days/ 4 Nights trip from Perhentian in July. This time I went with my best friends! Cancelled Bangkok (due to the political unrest) and decided on an island trip. Or more like, an island stay.  It wasn't easy to get use to in the first place, but eventually we all loved the intimate space and time we get to spend with each other :)  The weather is perfect during the day but there were 2 or 3 nights, from our stay where the evenings poured so heavily that we couldn't get out. At all. Or only towards later that night. The island life is truly something to warm-up to, but once you've got the hang of it - it IS SO MUCH FUN!  And none of us were complaining about all the beach bods around us at all. /heh ^ Squirrels! One thing for sure, there were so many squirrels and geckos! LIKE MIGHTY HUGE ONES! LIKE SUPER WELL FED ONES! Audrey goes crazy at the sight of geckos - so it's kind ...

Rainforest World Music Festival 2011 @ Sarawak Cultural Village, Santubong

LATEST UPDATE JANUARY 2014:  For some strange reason, the photos no longer appear on this post. I am uncertain what has happened to them, but I reckon it's a Blogger issue. For photos of this beautiful festival, please check out my photos on Facebook HERE .  Bucket List #35 – Attend Rainforest World Music Festival in Sarawak Borneo Bucket List #60 – Party in a jungle, or forest. Scraped off. Are those numbers I vomited out for my bucket list, random? Yes. Oh well.  It was a totally different atmosphere, feel and situation in Sarawak last two Saturdays ago compared to the KL City. I mean I couldn’t say much because I didn’t experience the rally itself, but the tweets and news that poured in that day told as much. As I woke up around 9am, switched my UberSocial I saw all kinds of depressing and worrying tweets, I decided to ignore them. Well, I was going to a festival so I would like to pick up on a ligher mood. The boys and I fle...

Where IS everyone?

Don't you hate it when you keep chanting to yourself to 'sleep early tonight, and get a much deserved rest' when the next thing you know - bright early in the morning you are brutally harassing the snooze button for at least a good one hour to 'compensate some rest' cause you slept, say at 2am before that night. You know, 'cause the time just went by like that. Been quite occupied with a lot of stuff lately, moving being one of it. I've moved to my old place cause the current house will be returned back to it's owner this coming June, and 'cause one of the room in the current place is now vacant as well so my cousin invited me to move back in. Took about two full weekends to remove all my stuff to my current room. Was caught with some meeting during the weekend, and I actually wrote this about a place. I'm sure you can guess where I was, from this ; I'm in this evil place ; of overpriced lattes, over-caffeinated metropolitan strugglers and ma...
