What do you think about this?

Misi Bantuan ke luar negara.

# I think there is no need to give bantuan to other people when our own people still suffering development issues. Some areas in interior of Sabah Sarawak still no tar road. Some kids still need 12 hours to go to school and 12 hours to back home. This issue was settle by Astro years ago. What did those so called misi bantuan people do? Help our own people first lah~

Kota Jakarta mengalakkan penggunaan basikal pada hari Ahad.


#At last there is a news that I like to hear in the tv. Jakarta people had been practicing riding a bicycle and walking on sunday. This is as an action to save the environment. I LIKE IT! wish sabah or this country can practice that too. No use of cars on sunday. But with this country people mindset, its impossible. One house have so many cars. That's the perfect reason crimes are increasing recently. Orang Sabah kaya-kaya bah~

Tweeples.


# In tweeter, there is this group of people keep RT @(name), @(name)... without mentioning what they are retweeting. So annoying man. But that account give me many updates of Sabah So I cant unfollowe yet still annoying with the lots of tagging name. urgh~

Nicole.

Disaster.

Watching 8pm news while online right now.

Breaking news never decrease.

Anyone I knew live in United State? I think only Holly's ex-tutorial mate whom i forgot her name.
As we are having holiday relaxing at home, citizens over there are in scary mode.

Really hope the natural disaster faster over.

Unsafe Place

So many breaking news recently, lets make it straight to the point.

1. acid splashed last week (*on the newspaper and via facebook).
2. girl raped in K-mall 5th floor car park last saturday (* realiabe source via fb status)
3. Navara spare tyre stolen at K-mall 4th floor car park yesterday maybe (*forgot). (*mobile upload via a facebook anonymous friend)

Actually, I want to say social networking is really a good medium to tell us, especially who stays at home what happened surrounding us. Some people might say the news is fake. However, I rather believe it for the safety of our own rather that wasting my time go to accused people spreading fake rumours.

Keep remind your love one to not going out alone. There is no place that is safe even the crowded area. I scare of XXX but I even scare that meeting one of those sinner maker. I dont want to accused PATI because I scare to know the truth that there is that tiny possibility that our own BORNEO people doing that too. We are all human. 

But I really scare me, people around me....get hurt.

 Even parking also a headache. Pencuri tayar are everywhere. My dad say they are very pro. They wear like normal people working attire and assume is their car, and they car easily open the nuts in less than few minutes with their tool. Even the walkway passer also wont realized they are actually stealing because they act like take off their own car nuts. Thats what we call PRO. *sigh.

I hope there is no loss of life. 

If they want money, just give them. take bah! you will get your karma for what you did.

Everyone, whatever religion you are. Do some prayer when you start a journey. I believe every religion's prayer have their own blessing power to the drivers and passengers. 

:)

Life goes on.

* remember, when walking dont just look on the floor and front. Look left & right also. Who knows got people walking in your direction want to do some crime.

* and........dont just bring purse out. Bring a handbag put everthing inside. Dont keep show off your iphone, ipad etc in public...later kena aim by them. T_________T

Prayed for everyone safety. 

Namoamitabha my all readers.

Nicole.

Marble is the name.

25.08.11 Thursday


I want to blog something tonight.

Dive through the brain to retrieve what I had done today and past few days.....

# Been squeezing my brain for two days to think for the introduction and problem statement of my thesis. I made a draft yet I do not think the supervisor will accept it because its too random and too many weaknesses to argue for the point. But I cant think of any because the topic is too general :( I thought general is good. But never ever lose hope. There is still room for changes. Good Luck to me!!!!

# Been really into cooking (* my mood will come once in a blue moon). When I am lazy, I only will open mouth to eat and eat and so on. When the mood come, I can really try my best to cook (P/s: Only selected food that I like to eat. I can blog this another day :) ). I made a basic tom yum soup and the portion is only for one person lah. Ingredient? (Bawang merah, putih, air, garam, wicin, bendi, tomyam cube. That's ALL!!!! super duper basic). I love bendi very very much!!!!!

# Baking. Today is my first time baking. WITHOUT the weight scale for the margarine and butter. hahaahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahhahaha...........

Do you know without that equipment, it is really a serious matter? I just use Agak-agak lah.. Luckily for other ingredients I still got the cup scale. So, still far to failure. And I only managed take pic before put it into the oven. After take out from oven, I am SDE ( Super Duper Excited) and you know the I-do-it-for-the-first-time-feel? yup, that's the feel that I am trying to tell you. Wordless. *Happy.


The smell is good once take out from oven but lack of moisture. *I guess. After eat two piece, need to find water. Should I bring it out to all of you yumcha friends tomorrow? I scare you all laugh me lah. My first production in my entire life. :(

# House chores. House chores are really a boring yet fun activities. You will get addicted to it. Oh yeah, roanne sure will scold me chi-sin for loving do house chores. Tiring because you will need to clean a big space. Boring because you will need to do it daily.

But I think that is the only thing I can do to compensate my parents when I am holiday at home. I can be a sleep pig at home but deep inside I really can't sleep, eat, online at home while other people are working hard outside. So I usually will do something to kill the time such as in the kitchen wash this and that......ok...enough this later you all said me ah sam. I dont want be ah sam at home do chores only. This is not mentioning my mom lah. :) Now is different generation so we do things differently with generation before.

# Lucas. An uncle or perhaps I should call him granduncle because my dad suppose to call him uncle but they are almost in same age * i heard over parents conversation.

This uncle came to do car services and coincidentally my ah-Kem aunt at Lokawi  also came here for car services. Then trio of them include my dad was in a conversation which mentioning that what what what.....bla bla bla...my ancestor is angmo?! 

It is the generation before my grandpa and before and before and before...I dont know how many generation, I think my mom also confused with it but what we are sure the point is my nenek moyang married an angmo but then the angmo moyang go back to England *maybe (because that time is British conquer Borneo).

Then that Lucas uncle gave Ah Kem aunt a website, i think it must be a blogspot where mention/stated about the history of our ancestor until this generation but of course not our side but maybe the angmo ancestor that side. But the prob is I am not there while they chatting about this and I didnt get the website!! T_____T I want read it. Will ask again from that Lucas uncle about this if he come here again in the future.

夜深人静 Continuation.....


夜深人静,
*才发现,在夜深人静的时候特别多灵感。
*也发现,用华语写部落格,特别的多感想啊。

本人因为今天兴奋过度,凌晨四点钟都还无法入岁。
还有肚子下点部位有丝丝疼痛。放心,忍忍下, 就ok的。

成功,
你的成功定义是什么呢?闭上双眼,想啊。。想啊。。

有些人,创事业,赚钱了,成功了。
有些人,升职了,新水高了,成功了。
有些人,买屋买车,娶亮老婆,成功了。
有些人,生子育女,孝顺父母, 成功了。


我呢。。。

成功应该还离我很远吧。
知道自己的短处,不加于改进,坐以待毙。
一直告诉自己要善加改进,偏偏就不行啊。
我知道, 不应该说不。

嗨。。。

现在这个人生阶段,我要的成功应该是顺顺利利毕业。

然后, 我要的成功是顺顺利利找到工作。

Enough BS. Inspiration flew away already.

Good night!!!


Nicole.

俺的未来是吗该leh?

夜深人静,
自己静静观想自己的未来。

未来,
好可怕。

大学生涯最后一年了,
大家都叫我好好享受。

一年后,
就要靠运气了。

我个人认为,
成绩好不代表你肯定找到工作。
这也要靠运气啊。。

看到前辈们,他们找到工作了,
靠的就是人缘。

等一下,senior 华语是叫前辈吗?
还是师兄?师姐?

继续。。。

我人缘差,
不会主动向人家讲话的。

若我跟你聊很多话题,
恭喜你,我们是朋友。哈哈!

我更加不会说甜言密语特地弄你开心。
我不喜欢,就不会勉强自己喜欢。
了解我的朋友,你们知道的啦。。

所以如果伤到你们,抱歉哦!

未来啊。。

我不是温柔型的,
有时不否认喜欢有挑战的东西。
当初选择读这一行时,
就因为挑战。

现在,有点缩头乌龟了。

我可以永远做学生吗?

未来啊,
我的自愿啊。。。
告诉自己别怕,
安慰自己,
我并不孤单。

73位同班同学,
没有100%,也应该有25%同学和我一样再烦这问题吧。。。
哈哈。。。

未来啊。。。
是时候好好再策划一下了。

晚安!

I not really need it for the moment but good thing no harm to give it a try.

Fake Polaroid & Inner Peace

One fine sunday...

Polaroid is so nice.
Yet I cant afford a polaroid camera.

So make good use of the handphone camera and using fake polaroid instead.

Still like the effect so much although it lost the originality.

Using Roidizer apps to make this.




My monday today had been so far so good.
Last night I had been doing some deep thinking regarding the inner peace issue.
It does not last long 
just for around 10 minutes.

I like the result.
I end up clearing my mind.
I know talking without action is useless.
Not trying to impress anyone.
Just doing it for the sake of happiness in life.
and a reminder for myself not to be falling too deep in the materialistic world.

I will walks slowly along the path.
Hope there is some changes in the long run.

For readers that do not understand what I am writing right now....
If you have a free time, please take a read at this post.

No intention of promoting or etc 
but a good thoughts should be share out to friends.

After you read it, if you have any respond please do tell me.

I am very interested to read what your thoughts are.

If vice versa, then nevermine, thank you for taking your time reading the post.

HAHA!!!

Have a nice week ahead friends.

Disney Princess

* A post reply to blog owner Melody of life.

The Disney Princesses.

I am sure almost everyone have their own favorite Disney Cartoon idol.

Few days ago, some of my friends sharing which princess they like in Disney Movie....

I was not online that time and missed out the live commenting fun.

So

Which one do you like?

Of all the princesses, I like Mulan very much.

I agree with one of the friends opinion.
Most of the fairy tales are about a beautiful princess with a handsome prince.
That is why the story call fairy tale...
Everything will become 100% perfect in the end.

There is no fairy tales in real life....
Even if it does, i think it will only be 0.01% in the whole world.

That is also one of the reasons I dont like....
Cinderella la....
Snow white la....

Do you see in the cartoon got the princess or prince that having trouble in money?
Do they everyday keep thinking "I want money buy house" etc.

The contains of the cartoon only :
A beautiful princess
A brave prince
A bad woman/man/witch
A good or bad magical power.

Most of it about a bad people was jealousing at a good people.
Thus, keep want to demolish them.

In real life, what really is our enemy (* for me currently...)
is the money.

Money is the enemy.
hahaha...

Ok 
I am so far off the topic.

Back!

Mulan........

Straight to the point.

Bravery.
Respect to parents.
Love to country.

Most importantly,
its about ancient China....

The kingdom.....
The spirit....
The culture....
The ancient costumes....



Another one I like is Pocohontas.

 I like the songs in the cartoon.

So red indian feel.
The beat....

The greenery.
The wide natural.
the culture.
The bravery
The modern meets the Traditional.
The Costumes (*its not that glamourous or expensive but i just like)
The cute animals.


Did She brave?
I forgot the chronology of the story....

I just like it.

:D

The weekend.

This is Nicole's story.

When I was small...

 weekends was what I am waiting for among all of the days.
On saturday night, father will bring all of us out to eat Kfc, Bak Kut Teh etc you name it.

After that, we will go to Milimewa KK or Inanam for shopping.
The first section I will go is the stationary section.
Although I am not buying anything,
I still will take a look over all the little stationary there.

Then,
If I have nothing to buy, I will go to find my parents and following them window shopping from one department to another department until the supermarket is about to close.
That supermarket has a "closed-shop-song".
I forgot the rhythm.

CP?
I know I like go there.
But my parents dont like go there.
So, when I was a kid, I seldom step my foot to CP.

When I grow up...

there is no more weekends going out with the family.
I can go out anytime I prefer.
So do my brother.

This is what I called freedom.

Today is different,

I smell the warm feelings again.

Today went out breakfast with family.
Today went out to window shopping with family.
Today at house compound do some chores with family.

Although just that little moment of spending together, it really reminiscing the old days.

is learning to appreciate every little thing.

有样学样

有些人呢。。就喜欢有样学样。

有些人,不喜欢别人学他。
有些人,平不介意别人学他。

你是那一种人呢?

我不否认,
我就是其中一个的copycat。
但,
换句好听话,
"我要跟时事潮流嘛"

别人写部落格用华语,我也跟。
别人在写关于卡通的post,我也要跟。
别人换了部落格layout,我也要跟。

哈哈。

更应该换个角度看,
其实我并没有copycat,
我只不过受"朋友的影响"


亲爱的朋友们,请不要生气。

忍忍吧。。。

嘿嘿。

P/s: This post influenced by Rhythm of life, Melody of life and 45 degree sky, got your smile's blog.....in chinese man......muahahhaa.....

The Nude Black


While browsing through facebook, I came up with an online business post.
This girl had a business of online selling colorful contact lenses.
I had been following that page since a year ago.
No intention to buy yet no intention to remove the page.
The feel of want to keep update although have no intention to buy. You know?
Just like those selling online clothing.

Back to main point.
Every time I saw the post is a pair of contact lenses range from Rm35- 50.
This time I saw the post - for Raya promotion RM 20 per pair.

Very cheap.
Suddenly have the urge want to give a try on those colorful lens.
But it come in despair where all of it is 0 degree.

HAHA!
Great!!!
RM 20 save!!!

I read one of the comments, the Rm30-Rm50 lenses can use up to a year for a pair of it...
I really doubt the quality of the lenses.
But if really can use up a year, why we need to buy those at optometry shop lenses.
HAHA!
Back to the point.
I am a cheap skate yet I do care for my eyes.
Wearing those korean colorful lenses buy from online once in awhile should be okay,
I just did not agree somebody use it for a long term unless you get it from the optometry shop.
Care for your eyes, Just like you care for your family.

LOL....Stupid quote...ignore it.

Have a nice weekends readers!!!!

The Alms Giving | 14 August 2011



Every year, I will post about this event in my blog.

However this year is an exception.

Because the date clash with the Mt Kinabalu climb's date.

=(



Nicole's confession : 

I am not a Holy Buddhist.

I am not a full time vegetarian. (* but I try to reduce my consumption of meat)

I do kill some small lifes (*ants, termites, mosquitoes...)

I lazy to do daily chant. (*only pray when i am in difficulties)

I am really not Holy although I try to.

But somehow, I do it today, I lazy to do it the next day.

I really hope I can be like my dad, my aunties and uncles. ( *Jen, Bee, Kiong, Leong.....)

But myself esteem not that good.

one word : LAZY!

Although myself should be my main reason 
to chant...
to walk...
to live....
to do good deed...
in a way a Buddhist shall do,
the main people that helps me to deeply in love in this religion are these people.

People whom I called family.

These people passion towards the Buddhism influences me a lot.

Thank you, everyone. (*dad, aunties & uncles.)


Here are some pic spamming :

Buddhist followers on this day will come here and give anything useful to the sifus.
(* rice, bread, pen, biscuits, notebook etc that a sifu can use in his/her daily life..)

Those are fake monks.

If they really in difficulties, they will only ask for water and food from people.
And exactly not money.
Please spread this out.

Thank you.

Mt Kinabalu | 13 & 14 August 2011



Activities : Climbing Mt Kinabalu
Date : 13 & 14 August 2011

The day finally arrived.

Our time arrangement was roughly like this:

.Saturday.

5am wake up at home.
6am fetched by driver Jc from home.
7am reached Nabalu Park.
8am reached Kinabalu Park. ( *registration, breakfast buffet etc)
9am start the journey from Timpohon Gate ( 0km )
4pm reached Laban Rata ( 6km) ( *dinner buffet)
5pm moved to our rest house Gunting Lagadan Hut ( approximately 500m). 
        (* free activities - take pics, bath etc)
6pm sleep.

.Sunday.

1am      wake up at Gunting Lagadan Hut
1.30am went down the restaurant to have breakfast.
2am      go back Gunting Lagadan Hut to take stuff (* water, panadol etc)
2.30am start the journey again. ( from 6km onwards) 
            ( * from Laban Rata to Top is 2km) 
4.30am reach check point at Sayat-Sayat ( 1km from Laban Rata)
x.xxam reach The Low's Peak. ( 2.7km from Laban Rata)

9am      climb down from the The Low's Peak to Laban Rata. (* pack all the stuff, breakfast buffet)
10am    climb down from the Laban Rata to Timpohon Gate.
x.xxpm reach Timpohon Gate.

End.
Hera I am sharing some of my experiences.
Picture spamming : 

Me bringing two bags.
One is for the porter to help me carry to Laban Rata.
One is for myself to carry.

All of the clothes, extra shoes is carry by porter.
And other important stuff is carry by me
such as food, drink, camera, extra socks, first aid kit.

It is better to carry yourself the important stuff because for some cases, 
the porter will not walks with you.
When its raining, you have no raincoat to use.
When you headache, you have no panadol to eat.
When your socks wet, you have no sock to change.
When you thirsty, you have no water to drink. 

So in my this bag, you can find some important thing that you might be needed on the way climbing.
HAHAHA....
But if you lucky enough, the porter walks with you. 
You can take out your things anytime you want just like Lucky Ro.

just in case you are not lucky, 
bringing a bag yourself is much better.

The bag carried by porter is 4kg and it costs me Rm40.
He will carry it from Timpohon -Laban Rata & Laban Rata -Timpohon.

So for whoever that thinks they not able to carry their bag,
can just use the porter service.

 On the way to Kinabalu Park from Kota Kinabalu.

 At Nabalu Park.
Sadly, no view of Mt Kinabalu.


 Continue journey to Kinabalu Park.

Group photo.
Jc is missing out because he is the photographer.

Breakfast buffet.
2 eggs. 1 apple. 2 bananas. 1 sandwich.

 At the main gate.



 The trail that we used.
Timpohon- Laban Rata - Low's Peak
0km-6km-8km
or 
0km-6km-8.7km

8km is consider the top according to pro (*roro said)
8.7km is the extra 700m to reach to the sign board that people usually take pic of.

 Dont forget to bring raincoat and put it in the easiest part to reach for your bag.
During our half way hiking, the weather was not good.
Raining.
 Me and roro at 5km.
1km to go before Laban Rata.

 The Sandakan gang.

 The KK gang.
 The Sandakan gang again.

Some of us dont have a good stamina. 
Thank you for the good stamina guys for waiting the not good stamina friends.
We got 11 in a group.
3 were on the front already.
8 more at the back and we walks on group.
Erm....
Quite pity one sandakan friend because his ankle hurt.

Sorry I could not remember all of their name.

 Tired.
 Randy the guardian.
We were overtake by many angmos.
See him take care roro....
No hurt feeling k.....
hahahhaha.........

 Roro praying, "oh god, please let us safely reach."

 Mountain plants.

 Roro, proud of you.
You made it to the top.

 Blog owner on the rest.

 The dinner upon reaching Laban Rata.

We had our lunch at somewhere 4km hut.
Not really sure though.

 Upon arriving Laban Rata.



 Walks to room.

 Its all mist around.
 A big achievement for the girl in black.
She is the alien in the group.
She bath with the cold water at the resthouse.
No one will bath there because its too cold.
Alien. Alien. Alien.

 Bro.

 Gunting Lagadan Hut.
The resthouse that we overnight.

 Its cold up here.
yet some people can no need use sweater...


 Me and bro!!!

Teo Sibling Boleh!!!!

LOL

It was very cold up there.
If you take off your gloves,
it can only last for 1 or 2 min then you need to wear back the gloves.

Somemore, upon reaching the peak.
You can only take pics for awhile.
Because the peak is very steep and not too much place can stand.
There are many climbers want to take pic too.
So one or two pictures,
the guide will ask you to go down and let other people take pic.

Lucky us, we are consider the late reach climbers.
Most of the earlier climbers went down already.
So we got more than one or two pictures at the peak.

HAHA.

And.
After climb to the peak, you need to faster go down. 
Because the temperature is too low.
Waiting too long at the peak area can cause you to have leg cramp.
That will be a serious matter if happen.
If no medicine around.
cham lo~




 Sandakan friend who made it to the top.
 Challenge each other.
Without wearing sweater.
 Along the way, you will see many stones scatter around.

The mountain guide said, when there is accident happens there,
such as a climber slide down and broke his/her leg.
They will put the rock at that area so that other climber wont step on that area again.
These stones are use as a reminder to the climber that not to step to that area.
it implying the area is dangerous, slippery.

 Started to feel hot.

Climber must go down as fast as possible before the hours tick off
because once the mist comes out and covers the mountain.
Scare the climbers cant see the path go down the Laban Rata.
It is very dangerous to climb down with blur vision.
can die one you know?


 Breakfast again or I consider it as lunch before walks down from 6km to 0km.



 Laban Rata last goodbye.

 walks down.
Its more relax.


 Blog owner me SS 1.

 The woods.



  Blog owner me SS 2.
 HOTTTTT!!!!!!
can feel the sunlight above my head already.

 Small waterfall at 0km -1km.

 Took at Balcony Kinabalu Park.
I beat you down already!!!!!!!
Muahaha...

bye bye and I shall climb you again....
if got fate.
Because coursemates planning to climb it on final year.

Actually, the reason I climb this mt is because :
My coursemates plan to climb it on the final years.
I scare that time I could not climb.
Because people always said, 
first time climb sure not reach,
second time sure will reach.

So I came with the decision to join Roanne's them.
If I reach half only,
I will continue work hard on the second try.

But........

I reach there dy!!!!

and friends, 

nextime when you ask other people they got reach the top or not,
if they said no.
Please dont look down on them.

The mountain guide told us, 
if before climbing, its raining,
then the climbing for that day is cancel.
So climber need to go back with frustration.

So we are very lucky it didnt rain that morning.

Rc didnt climb to the top for the first time.
He said his shoes was rosak.
And its raining the day before, the mountain is slippery.
So instead risking himself with the koyak shoes.
He quit.
But Congratulation to you.
You made it this time.
Tidak memalukan keluarga chew...hahaa..joking.

Rf.....u did a great job.
8km is not easy to reach.
and you did it...
I know you sure will go climb again after 5 year or more..
Because I know you is stubborn type.
Never ever give up.

Jc....
i have nothing to say..
erm...
Congratulation!!!!!!



And everyone.....Congratulation.

The colorful cert!!!!
=)


 Take nothing but photographs,
leave nothing but footprints.



Jc got ask when on the way back to KK,
"What did you learnt from this adventure?"


Nicole's thoughts :

I learnt about friendship 
Human is a complicated creature with different kind of emotions, thoughts etc you name it.
I am not a 100% perfect human being.
I keep telling myself I wont leave you away and we will do it together.

Sorry, roro...my egoism is killing me.
I think that there are two personal porter accompany you.
Thats why i leave you like that at first.
After that, you run away from the two uncles.
I realised you dont like them as company.
haha....

The second time of leaving you and randy...

my egoism made me think,
randy sure will catch up with me.
But he did not. 
Then I realized he must be waiting for you and together walks down.
I suddenly realized the big mistake that I had done.
I know you will keep said Its Ok.
But I really feel guilty.

Until the second pondok I decided to wait you guys.

Until you told me randy was tired and you wait for him.
I was totally in my guilty mode.

I forgot, Randy is best in climbing but not good in go down hill.
In walking up, he patiencely wait for us.
But walking down, i did not wait for you guys.

I am sorry.

I promised I wont let you two down next time.

Hundreds and thousand of friends are useless if you sucks at taking care of them.
Friend dont leave friend.
I know I always think about me, me and me.
No care other people feeling.
I will stop thinking about me, and start thinking about other people 
=)
I am sorry.
I will fan xing.

haha.....

The next thing I learnt is about be grateful.
Porter.
They are really good in strength.
Very respect them.
I grateful my parents give me comfortable shelter and so on.
Please dont look down on them.
If they have a second chance ( etc higher education)
do you think they will prefer having this job?
We dont know how their life is.........
When I look onto their face,
I dont have the guts to think.
Think about what? Anything.

When I see they carrying a lot of heavy things up to the mountain.
I can only scold inside my heart, "ma lai xi ya zhen fu suck!!!!"
They should have come out with a solution to solve this problems.

A cable car......
A small road....
up to the mountain...
its no possible huh? 
Just a matter of $$$.
humanity.
But nobody cares............
Those live in the city only know how to enjoy their marvelous life.

Ok...

Enough emo thoughts.


Last but not least.

Great experience with great people in my life.

A memory to be remembered.

A lesson to learn.

Another chapter closed.

I shall move ahead for another target in life.

Nicole.
