Kaamatan 2011

30 May 2011 Happy Kaamatan

Kaamatan = holidays.

Holiday = family gathering.

Family gathering = happy.

So, Kaamatan = happy.

LOL.

Catch up with many latest news of family members.

Congratulation to my three cousins that will have new born babies soon.

Rm4 coconut you can found in town but here free and nobody want to go and get it.

Hot weather = Coconut.

Nyaman~

It might seems easy but seriously its hard.

What else activity we'll do when in kampong?

Membeli.

Well, thats a term that every kids will like in a kampong.

Teach some aunty and cousins in the kampong play rami.

This year Kaamatan is just a normal celebration.

With some gambling and karaoking.

But........

We had some paranormal activity going around the houses there.

Because they are some pregnant cousins, some of them claiming that they heard a B^2

( B@l@n-B@l@n)'s sound at the back of the house.

And those kids go to scare the B^2 away by burn the firecrackers and

uncle aunty them go prepare some traditional method for keeping away the B^2 by preparing the bawang thingy.

Another paranormal activity was the youngster claims they saw a shadow passing in a fast motion at grandpa's 1st floor house. And then someone is knocking on the window.. etc...

And they do some paranormal video recording.

And.

Nothing found.

HAHAHA....

Lastly, Happy Kaamatan everyone.

Dance For Charity

21.05.11 Saturday

Line Dance Jamming Party

Theme : Dance For Charity.

I was invited to go for a charity dinner by Aunt Marina at May Flower Restaurant.

This Dance For Charity Dinner was organized by the Kinabalu Pink Ribbon

and it was the first time ever that the emcee said they hope for more events like this.

RM 40 per head for a buffet style dinner included a free goodies bag.

Two line dance groups : Kinabalu Pink Ribbon dance group and Nancy Line dance group

take turn to dance from 6.30pm until 10.30pm with various types of line dance including

Berta, Bachata etc.

Wow, seriously i learnt all these dance terms for the first time by reading the tentative.

Before this, i only know about the random dance term like cha cha, tango, waltz etc.

This Charity Dinner was supported by two of our sabahan honors Datin.

They really have the passion to dance.

In my view, they might not be a good professional dancer but their passion, love to dance and support this charity wins over all the things.

People came and eat. It was just 9pm that there is already some people leaving the restaurant.

Obviously their intention is only come to eat. :)

But one of the Datin and her fellow friends were there until the event reached it ends.

It was aroung 10+. Wow. *claps*

The special performance by the Datins.

The dance was non stop.

There was a part where it was Social Dance Session.

Poco-poco, Joget, Sumazau....

Everyone is invited but sadly i can't sumazau and poco-poco and CHICKEN DANCE.

because my foot still in the blistering period.

Not yet recover bah....

So you think you can dance? No.I can't dance. :)

So what i can do only sat down and watched them dance.

Happy smile from them.

Love to see their passion to dance.

Even some of them was 50 years old above.

Mom & Aunt.

Mom, Aunt's friends, Aunt.

The Event ended around 10.40pm.

It was a good experience being around with all the dancers and watched them dance.

If i had opportunity, i would like to learn one also.

The basic Nobody Tango....forgot alreadyyyyy~~~~~~

haha.........

Have a nice weekends everyone.

Oh yeah, everyone ask how i went to practical and i told them i go by bus. And they was.... WHAT?????? real or not???? are you crazy??? you got car you no use instead and go walking and take a bus??? crazie.why???? and my silly answer was, I want cut off fats by walking, i want save parking fees, i want save fuel for the environment, i want....bla bla bla.....Actually, i felt that i am given what i needed - a car. I need a phone - Samsung Galaxy. I am really in my comfort zone. I must do something so that i wont become Fui Chai....

1st day go by bus, damn scary. 2nd day, beh tahan...............my foot got blister because of the new office formal shoes and i really so bad mood internally. Thankful to Rc for offering to fetch me back home. I usually not depend on other people but today is an exception because my foot so painful ah... Well, some of you know my style. :)

So the works today is - check the rest of the tender books, the missing pages, readings all the contract, the conditions because supervisor will ask at the end of the day. But since supervisor is busy he didnt ask la.... :) and we help the drafter to check on the drawing updates. Two people praise us that day... WOOOHOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Feeling so proud at least we are not "useless" in that company.

1. We convert here and there the scale thingy. The uncle said, " OK, boleh pass jadi engineer"

We almost got wings and fly to sky...kakaka.......

2. We are very efficient. Another uncle said, " uiseh, memang engineer ba ni...baru ajar 1 kali, terus dapat catch up." HAHAHAHA

Cant do nothing but just be humble lah.... heeeee....

Wesak 2011

17.05.11

Happy Wesak Day

Santavana Forest Hermitage.

Yes yes yes we are going there early in the morning.

Pictures pictures pictures :

I love all these pics.

Dogs that once a homeless dogs found their new home here.

You can found pretty much dogs here erm more than five.

I believe these dogs are vege dogs.

Because i guess there is no existence of meat in this hermitage. :)

so the dogs eat vege. :)

Thats the sifu there.

According to her, there is one dog injured there being hit by a car

and she is trying to treat the dog by giving it medi.

Another doggie, they just watching people walk here and there.

No barking. They dont bark. Guess they already familiar with the conditions of meeting new people. :)

It was still early when we reached there.

Not much human being....hahaha.....

See this doggie, so friendly. This doggie keep following the kid.

And, he/she is eating the baja ikan in the kolam. :)

This picture reminds me of my kindergarden class.

and maybe for other people it was just a normal bean thingy.

Kids love this dont they?

Okay, thats uncle from the left, dad, and aunt.

We got one special guest lagi.....

Miss Kewei.

hahahahaha......

The beautiful scene seen from the balcony.

The dining hall.

We dont know what plant is that but guess its a pandan plant.

A corner of the room decorated with buddhism books and statue.

Another corner of the room.

These people were having their tea there.

Not the simple teh boh session.

The uncle was very kindly showing his skill of "cook" the tea.

I dont know the term in english. paiseh la... :)

My uncle said, "wow, my eyes open terus after drink the tea.." :)

A bunch of kid.

He is trying to explain what is that statue about.

HAha...i was just looking at them. So cute.

The drinking tea session.

Only look from outside.

A plant that mostly we have at home.

Ya..

because we reached early,

thats why we had to wait until 9am.......

9am.

Tuo Puo.

I dont know what it is called in english or malay.

But i guess alms giving or sedekah.

yeap. we brought our thing and queue up there.

This year is very long......

many people comes this year....

Its a good improvement too....

I wonder is it because the management did a good job by doing a good advertisement?

or people scare of 2012? haha...chill............just a thought.

But its a good thing everyone comes.

Good Karma.

waiting..waiting...and waiting....

A girl opposite of us loss patience and throw out words,

" now i know why daddy dont want come here again...."

First thought would be, You dont want to come. Dont come la... Nobody force you.

But now think back, she is just a young teenager. Nothing to blame then.

While waiting, we take a few minutes went to the small huts nearby....

I blogged about this before..

Dad's friend, uncle Han Xiang was leading the sifus.

Here they come....near....

nearer......

nearerer....

Nearest.

You can give anything you want but make sure the sifus can use in the daily life.

note books, tissues etc...

Cute kiddie gave a toothbrush.

Finished with tuo puo...

The next event is the bath buddha's ceremony but before that is the blessing session.

Too many people.

Queueing.

Quiet efficient because there are four little prince siddharta gautama.

Kewei bathing the prince siddharta.

Aunt's turn.

Finish with it.

We moved to the other hall....

Tea break.

Nah....this doggie is the famous doggie here.

A golden retriever from america.

Naik flight datang sini woh....

very friendly dog....

Volunteer workers work hard today.

Great job. Very appreciate their hard work.

I overheard, one uncle said..."we made it with our heart..."

owwww.....that was so touch...

We get it uncle....

Thank you to all the volunteer workers for making it works for the day.

Some people might feel :

OH~ free food... makan banyak2..... makan ini...makan itu......ini tidak sedap...bla bla bla....

actually that is really a Wrong attitude.

We always know how to talk.

But hard to implemented.

I am also learning to think like that.

The more we give other people, with a reluctant heart, the more we will get in return.

A story told by sifu today in the ceremony :

A man that give free water or food ( i forgot) to everyone everyday, he will have rice to eat everyday in his next lifes.

I am half asleep that time. Forgot but agak-agak like that la the story....

so......feel free to share ur things with other people....accordingly...to conditions. LOL

That was rojak buah.

I dont know why...i feel very nice the rojak buah.... thumbs up..... :)

Love this picture infinity timeeessss....hahaha.....

The pond where the doggie eat baja ikan just now...

hehe...

Owh yeah..reached early and back early.

We skipped vege lunch.

And went back early to escape massive jam.

Thats my Wesak 2011..
