A monk's act...

Saw this in today newspaper online............

*rub eyes*

Total Speechless....

The moral of the story is... the next time you go for a flight, and you see any monk taking the same flight, better of to give up the ticket and go for the next flight...

RM10?

Saw this news online...

Did I read wrongly? To cut RM10 from the Minister's salary?

Is is plain stupid? or IDIOT is a better description for this...

Cut RM10 from a Minister's salary as a punishment for the bridge fell off incident?

What is the value of RM10 to a Minister? Hello...??!!! Did I miss something here????!

I think our politicians need some consultations from a brain surgeon and do some MRI checking...

Trip to Borneo Highlands, Kuching

Few days before my wedding, we went for a trip to Borneo Highlands. A lot of people kept telling me Borneo Highlands is a very beautiful place laa...very serene laa... how nice how nice blabla... so must go have a look... :)

So here we are... me and my mum in front of the entry point of Borneo Highlands... with 6 different welcoming languages...

5 of us, with my in laws.. This is the Boreno Highlands shuttle (modified from a lorry) to bring us up the mountain...

The winding zigzag road up the mountain... greenery all the way..

Tall tree, with very weird smooth trunk..

Very Very tall tree, stands out from the rest...

Must rajin buy Jackpot now... then I can buy this beautiful bangalow with greenery surroundings, very serene and peaceful as said...

Welcoming 'Misai Kucing Tea' when reach the Borneo Highlands Lobby...no bad for Tea lovers..

And by the way, here in Borneo Highlands, it is strictly 'Vegetarian'... No Meat!! For those that can die without meat... probably you need to think twice before staying long here..

After the small tea break, the shuttle brought us to the peak of the mountain... this place is called the 'Southwest Kalimantan View', 3,281 feet above sea level.... this is quite a height....!

The blue sky just looks gorgeous....The unspoilt land of nature...

Looking down the valley from the peak....is just 'Wow'!!!! Amazing nature that we still have, hopefully to be conserved well for years to come..

Feel just so calm and relax here.... been a while I have lost this kinda tranquility inside...I found it back here...

Then the shuttle brought us to the Flower Plantation where they have all the types of flowers you can and can't name of...

Like this silvery white plant... I have no idea her name, but I have only seen it before in the US and it is a super beautiful decoration for the perfect White Christmas.......

One ball of reddish flower...dunno the name but it is strikingly beautiful, and rarely seen outside..

This is the ever popular 'Misai Kucing' which they use to make the 'Misai Kucing Tea' or in Mandarin '猫须茶'...

Some special types of Lavender I think... is just whitey green plant without purple flowers...never seen this before....

Flowers with different colors mixed together... when you take a closer look at them, they are really amazingly beautiful...

Very rare natural blue flower... so blue...

Beautifully grown cactus!!! I like this plant...Very healthy looking..

Bees on the yellow flowers......

Beautiful red dots all over the Garden, very refreshing :)

Big green garden un-polluted, hidden away in the valley of Borneo Highlands..

See the green.....got mountain, got water, got pavement.... so gorgeous and so relaxing... so, so refreshing~~~

Flowers in the colors of rainbow....enchanting as it is...

Outta the blue, there is a habitat on the mountain, rearing rabbits....!!

The rabbits all caged in a well spacious long house type of hut. There are white ones, blackies, and also mixed greyish types... all of them super adorable.... so cute that I almost wanted to take one back home...!!

Lily!!!! Very big, fully blossom lily from the pond... so fresh it looks like a painting... but trust me, it is a real genuine lily....

And I love Lavender........I always think Lavender is the prettiest among all, and this very Lavender Garden just stands out from all others around it..... So purple I thought I am somewhere in New Zealand....

Overlooking Borneo Highland view from the restaurant...

Before we get ready to go down from the mountain, the sky started to turn dark and black clouds floated by... and I just in time to capture this eerie image....

A memorable day trip, 100% refreshed.

My Pet, XiaoBai

This is my pet, XiaoBai... and this is his garden....

Then I feed him, bath him, tickle him, play with him everyday...

I feed him a lot of food everyday.... from main meals to in between meals to snacks and supper..

Because I feed him too much everyday....
XiaoBai grew up within one week..... now become DaBai liao....

Free Dinner @Victoria Station

There's a free dinner past 2 days ago, where boss gives budget and never specify a budget number..hmm ...so that should be counted as unlimited budget??!!

That's why the whole team voted to go to Victoria Station, a damn very expensive Western restaurant expertises on Lobsters & Steaks.... also serving variety of alchohol beverages..

Then my fren introduced a very popular and delicious appetizer, stating as a Must Try!
It turns out that the dish he mentioned is actually a plate of snails... *___*

The plate of snails do have a very sophisticated name... but too classy that I couldn't remember the word itself or how it sounds... so, I will still call it as 'snails'...

Surprisingly, the snail meat is yummy!!! Finger Licking Good!

There is one piece of meat inside each shell, very tender and 'Q', goes well with the creamy stuff on the plate..

This is the empty shell and the meat inside my tummy... hehehe...

And ohhh... this is supposed to be the lobster soup I ordered...

Huhhh... instead of lobsters, there are 3 big prawns inside with some pieces of fillets...I am thinking that they might have served me the wrong soup...

Oh well~~~ is okie, the soup is by all means delightful...

Here comes my main course of the night... Lobster combo with scalloops and grilled fish plus some side veges and baked potatoes...

Hoohh...the size of this main course is comparable to US size!!! Except for the mini bake potatoes that you can hardly see in the pic... the bake potatoes in US is much more gigantic than this which last time took me 2 meals to finish off that thingy...

A close up on my big Lobster... the sight of it is already very satisfying...the taste of it is really 5-star!! :)

The lobster meat is solid and 'Q', aromatic with the cheese and mushroom on top and very much fulfilling.. really a Must Try...!

And I ordered 'Irish Coffee' with some Whiskey in it, a good one, but I forgot to take a pic of it...

-__-

.........The bill comes up to a whooping ~RM1800 *gulp**gulp*

But who cares..... I am not the one paying... heh... :p
