Dual Layer Aluminium Radiator

Another view of the the radiator

anyway, my ride now is in rehab mode.. it has been in the rehabilitation center for almost more than a week.. miss it too much.. hopefully she can be discharged ASAP!

Brake got jammed!

2009-08-01T09:48:00.006+08:00

last 2 weeks ago, my front left side brake got jammed due to aging rubber brake hose. it started got jammed on the SPRINT Highway near the Seksyen 17 Toll Plaza and i had rev all the way to the nearby petrol station to check what's the problem. upon reaching, the brake pads got burnt and smoke kao kao. jacked the car and to try to spin for the first time but it can't move, suspects that brake caliper jammed. but after a while i tried to spin it again, it can be moved and suspects that it might due to brake hose problem where it can't release the brake fluid back to the reservoir, left the car for a few hours to let it cools down and drive it to the nearest workshop without brakes (i had to use handbrake though).

the next day went to workshop and got the hose changed. then happily drove it to fetch mong mong but the problem came back and haunt me but the impact wasn't as great as the previous one. i had drive it back to the workshop and checked. again spent a day there and got me car back. drive a while but still find the problem there.

no choice. terpaksa drive back to malacca and let mong mong's dad and have a look. after checking, the hoses were fine but the brake master cylinder assembly got leakage, i mean bad leakage (no wonder my brake fluid kept on decrease). fine. got it replaced and got all the brakes bleed. now it's back to normal but somehow i find my brakes now spongy, it's time for steel braided hoses? no money for it as i need fund for the major project that coming soon.

faulty front left side brake hose got removed and the burnt pads were replaced with new ones

the brake hose that gave me hell of a time..

now using IMP Formula Pads. it's cheap as i got it for special price

went back there the next to check what's the problem that caused brake jam again..

faulty brake master cylinder..

bad leakage..

brake fluid corroded the servo..

brake fluid is everywhere

missing wheel cap..

new red pads!

i'm here wishing all a very happy Chinese new year. have great and OX-piscious year ahead! moooo~

slotted anyone?

2009-01-23T08:45:00.009+08:00

first thing i would like to do in the new year and in conjuction with chinese new year, is to pamper my love (my ride but also my mong mong.. hehe). ok this time is the braking system of my bluey. not too long ago, i've fully serviced both front and rear brakes due to overdue services which rendered the brake system in horrid condition. leaked rear brake pumps, front left brake caliper piston got jammed, nescafe-look-alike brake fluid, clogged brake hose..

after fully serviced all four brakes, i'm still not really conviced with it, so, it's time for more performance parts come into it. instead of going for bigger brakes like what others normally would do (which i dislike as there is some customizing job need to be done), i decided to go for slotted disc rotors and better brake pads. the choice? ODK slotted front rotors paired with Ferodo Zero brake pads. the price? don't ask as i'm satisfied with every penny i spent (i earned them k!).

the slotted rotors with Ferodo Zero

closer look at the grooves

the other side of it!

try new engine lubricant, Bardahl Fully Synthetic 5W-40 with Proton Genuine Oil filter

brought those stuff to mong mong's dad shop to fix. also, it's time for a lub change as i preferred to have the oil changed every 3 months although the mileage has not reach 5000km. i was trying out new brand of engine lubricant which is Bardahl Fully Synthetic 5W-40.

the results? the engine is more rev-happy although just tried out for a short distance and my front brakes have not fully seasoned. detailed comment will be out once the brakes have fully run-in! stay tuned for more. (might be a special customized pulley sets in 2 months time? who knows right?)

upon installation. nice grooves!

being a tutor!

2009-01-22T21:32:00.003+08:00

lately, i have started to work as part-time tutor. my student is a 7-year-old little girl named Ying Ying (sounds like my cousin too). ok. the home tuition session is 1-hour per day and which is twice a week.

that's Ying Ying! how cute is she with the cute little dress!

initially, i thought it is gonna be tough as i have no experience on tutoring a young kid like her. so the first session was like a warming up session and getting to know each other better. hehe. and luckily, things turned out well and i'm really enjoy teaching her. hehe

she even personally made this for me as a token for chinese new year!

today is the fourth session, and the tuition gonna stop for CNY break. i will be back to tutor after the break. hopefully it will be more fun then. hehe

what's next?

2008-12-14T21:47:00.006+08:00

it has been a while that i have not done any major modifications on my slow car. and it is year-end now, i don't think there is anything going on now. so new year resolutions would be improving the engine performance, chassis strengthening, slight exterior make-over in order prepare it for the next HPC or OTD.

some of the stuff i might interested in......

Ported and polished cylinder head with 3-angle cut and flow benched?

semi-racing clutch set?

lightened crank pulley?

stroker kit?

fast road spec/higher profile camshaft?

completely the basic chassis strengthening pieces with this?

ps: i borrowed these photos for reference purposes.. hehe..

burger hunt part 3

2008-12-06T17:14:00.007+08:00

after a few rounds of burger hunts, i have finally hunted the most expensive burgers (to me lah!) from Carl's Jr. it was kinda pricey as the normal set would cost me around RM25. for a 2-person meal, it can easily cost anything near to rm50. so i would say i gonna try this only once. that's all. no more next time (if only i have extra cash to spare when i pass by a Carl's Jr outlet).

ok the burgers. i ordered Charbroilled Chicken Club (same as mong mong as she also suffered from Decidophobia). it was big! i mean real big if compared any that i hunted before. and the fries were nice and BIG. drinks are bottomless. and the tissues are unlimited too with easy access (it is on your table). like the deco of the outlet (Mid Valley). ok let the pictures do the cakap-cakap!

medium cup = McD's large cup

our waiting number, what a number man..

nice concept!

charbroilled chicken club ( is that the correct spelling?)

natural-cut fries, i blushed because they showed some skin.

sauce

and that happy face again! hehe..

they spent alot of the wrappers itself. they should implement environmental friendly policy.

the burger!

it was really messy. too JUICY~

ok the score was 8.5 out of 10 because it was big, juicy and naughty (i mean the price lah!)

burger hunt part 2

2008-12-06T17:10:00.005+08:00

it has been a long time since i last posted here. never mind, let's us continue with my hunt for all the burgers available in Malaysia. this time, it's Burger King.

this burger was hunted at Burger King 1Utama. we ordered a set of large chicken royale and bk fish! let the pictures do the talking!

large chicken royale set

bk fish with chicken royale set

chicken royale!

bk fish, see the fillet?
fries and chili sauce

and the happy face!

i must say that the portion is larger than McD and is a little pricier than McD too. but who cares? by the way, i love BK more than McD. wonder why?

the scores for this hunt is 9 out of 10 (one of my favourite burger!) haha!

another spiritual weekend~

2008-10-11T11:38:00.014+08:00

last weekend, i took part in another chinese taoist temple's parade/procession in conjuction of the Anniversary of its main god, Xuan Tian Shang Di. Anniversary of a taoist god can be considered the birthday of the god. this procession was supposed a grand one as it is the first time that this temple to held such festival. this time, i went with my dad after we were given the t-shirts of the festival a few days before the parade (unwillingly accepted the shirts.. haha).

the parade started at 3pm last saturday. we went there a little bit early to see what we can help (actually we do nothing as there were hundreds of people there, too crowded). before the parade started, there were 8 mediums on trance such as mediums of Xuan Tian Shang Di, Hua Kuang Da Di, Pao Shen Da Di, Pan Gu Da Di, Zhong Tan Yuan Suai, Zhang Gong Sheng Juin, Guan Gong (Xie Tian Da Di), Shan Cai Ye/God. it was considered a rare occasion to have so many mediums together and this is the only time i seen such situation by far.

the parade took a route around Malacca which approximated around 10km or more. it ended around 10-11pm. i could not recall the time when it ended as i was dead beat tired. haha. ok let the pictures do the talking.

front abs replacement

2008-10-09T18:26:00.006+08:00

a few weeks back, i noticed my car's front pair absorbers were showing sign of oil leaking. since the absorbers i bought are come with 1 year warranty, so i claimed a pair of new front abs. took it to nearby tyre shop and have it changed. bloody cut throat price but what to do, need to send back the faulty front abs to the seller for claiming process. by the way i'm using full set of improve propex sport abs with improve lowered springs.

the serial no.

new design, without much stickers on it

it comes with the rubber cover to protect the valve

faulty abs

another one

after replaced the faulty abs with the new abs, the front end is much more firmer and finally they got my camber fixed and my front wheels alignment has negative camber. woohoo! however, i really hope that the new front pair of abs won't failed me that soon. if still giving me problem, i will opt for Kayaba RS!

burger hunt part 1

2008-10-08T22:01:00.005+08:00

a few weeks back, we and mong mong decided to go on a burger hunt. the objective? pretty much easy, to hunt down all the burgers available in Malaysia regardless of brands. before the hunt begins, i need list down all the brands of burger available in Malaysia which i'm aware of, they are Ramly's, Wendy's, Mcdonalds, KFC, Burger King, A&W, Marrybrown, Carl's Junior.... and the list goes on. pretty much most of the fastfood outlets do sell burger except those pizza outlets. however, do you guys ever heard of JACKSON'S burger which sells homemade patties on a BURGER MOBILE?! Jackson's burger is quite among those who stayed or work at Section 14, PJ.

ok, let the hunt begins! let's start with Jackson's and Wendy's. on a fine afternoon which after class, mikey suggested to have burgers as our lunch. so we (me, mikey and aik leong) headed to Section 14, PJ to search for Jackson's. it relatively easy to find as the Burger Mobile was situated in front of a house. we quickly placed our order. 3 chicken burgers. it was nice (homemade patties mah!) and pretty much a chinese style of burger. however it was not that filling afterall, so we go on second round, this time 2 fish fillet burgers and 1 chicken burger (me just love the chicken, they ordered the fish). ok let the pictures do the talking! by the way, the chicken burger special is RM3.50 while the fish fillet burger special is RM3.70.

Jackson's Burger scored 8 out of 10.

the burger mobile, Jackson's Burger

tauke and lady tauke

homemade patty

the chicken burger

they were quite serious on their stuff

the pricelist

the lady tauke was frying the patties

fish fillet burger

next Wendy's. actually me and mong mong hunted down Wendy's quite some time ago. we had it at Sunway. it was during the Ramadan Month so the Wendy's there was quite packed with people. Me ordered the Chicken Grilled Burger while Mong Mong ordered Shrimp Burger and Baked Potato with Sour Cream. i had high expectations on Wendy's but it turned to be a mediocre burger. it was so-so. also, it was more expensive than Burger King.

Wendy's burger scored 5 out of 10.

my chicken burger!

wendy's french fries

baked potato with sour cream i guess

mong mong's fish fillet burger

our dinner!

the receipt

ok, stay tuned! more burgers coming your way!

ps: anyone can recommend me where to find nice pork burgers??

DIY engine oil change

2008-09-30T14:04:00.004+08:00

first of all, i need to stress that this post strictly no photos as my hands were greasy and oily throughtout the DIY session. so can't take any photos.

previously i was using Bardahl Semi-syn 10W-40 after switching from mineral to semi-syn. it was time to change the oil as i read from an article said that the oil first change from mineral to semi-syn must be replace in 2000 to 3000km. it said that it was due to the engine cleansing purposes. so this time, i switch to another brand which the Q8 advanced semi-syn 10W-40 engine oil. this brand is a well known brand and it is slightly pricey than the Bardahl.

ok first, you need to get ready a few basic tools such as 2-tonne jack, oil filter opener, oil container (if you old engine oil bottle, just cut it at one side of the bottle and tada, an oil container), 17mm wrench, new oil filter and lastly and most importantly, the new engine oil itself.

after you gotten all the tools needed, jack up your car and make sure the hand brake is fully lifted, the car steady. it is highly recommended that do this on a flat ground. i did mine on a ramp in mong mong dad's shop. oil cap can be removed now.

then, place the oil container under the oil pan and use the 17mm wrench to unscrew the oil sump nut. drain the oil completely. followed by unscrew the old oil filter with a oil filter opener and replace it with a new one (it is a must to change a new oil filter during each oil-change interval).

then, apply a thin film of grease or engine oil onto the new oil filter rubber gasket. but i skipped this step as mong mong's dad it is unnecessary to do so as there is oil on the place where the oil filter will be fitted. so, it is up to you whether want to perform this step or not. haha

after that, just screw the new oil filter in place until it is tight. this step must be use your hand's strength only. use 2 hands if you think it is not tight enough. then proceed to the screw in the oil sump nut. before this, you need replace the washer with a new one. then, screw in until tight. then, screw in further for 1/4 to 1/2 turn. make sure it is tight. or else, oil leakage might happen. wipe and clean up everything.

ok next, fill in new engine oil approximately 3/4 of it. then remove the dipstick and check the oil level. refill it again until the max line or slightly lower or you think it is adequate. then, place the oil cap and screw in place. before removing the jack or drive down from the ramp, check one last time for any leakage from oil filter and oil sump nut. if nothing happens, then can proceed to the final step.

lastly, fire up the engine and check the dipstick. if it is ok. then tada, you just finish your DIY session. haha

chassis stiffening project

2008-09-26T20:05:00.007+08:00

it has been a long time since the last mod on my car. this time, i need to upgrade the handling of my poor iswara. the handling of iswara is well known of. not because of the superb and precision handling but it has the worst handling among all the proton models. it has weak chassis, so i need strengthen it by add fender bars and rear strut bar for better car handling. if you wish to find out more about it, please refer to Ultra Racing Official Website or Skywalker.

the end results are, better handling, the car is more stable and cornering is much more sharper. both of these products are highly recommended for iswara! cheers! again, the money is well spent!

he won 8 gold medals in Beijing 2008 which is the most gold medals ever won by an athlete in a single Olympic games. also he also won the most Olympics gold medals with total of 14. he is called the SuperFish or FrakenFish (this one named by mong mong). he is none other than the great Michael Phelps.

first gold medal in Men's 400m Individual Medley with world record time at 4:03.84

second gold medal in 4 x 100m Freestyle Relay with world record time at 3:08.24

third gold medal in Men's 200m Freestyle with world record time at 1:42.96

fourth gold medal in Men's 200m Butterfly with world record time at 1:52.03 (which is also his tenth Olympic Gold Medal won so far)

fifth gold medal in Men's 4 x 200m Freestyle Relay with world record time at 6:58.56

sixth gold medal in Men's 200m Individual Medley with world record time of 1:54.23

seventh gold medal in Men's 100m Butterfly with Olympic record of 50.58 seconds.

eighth and final gold medal in Men's 4 x 100m Medley Relay with a world record time of 3:29:34.

ps: after seeing one athlete can win so many gold medals, i am wondering why Malaysia still can't win a gold medal from the Olympics.

2008-08-20T22:52:00.009+08:00

a few weeks, my car air-cond broke down (total no cold air). this time was leakage problem from the compressor which is one of the component that cost you a bomb. there are a few things in a car's air-cond system that can cost you a bomb are cooling coil, compressor and condenser. all of these items can easily fetch RM200 above per item. so guys better have your car air-cond system serviced regularly.

this time i had my car's air-cond repaired at mong mong's dad workshop. so i can expect a more professional approach instead of a bawah pokok's style of workmanship as her dad is proper trained and certified mechanic for Suzuki Cars.

sent my car there and had the system checked thoroughly. confirmed that the compressor was the culprit. the process was pretty straightforward as just had the faulty compressor replaced by the new one. then, check the pressure in the system before vacuum it in order to check for further leakage. it was followed vacuum the system and recharge the refrigent/freon into the system and jeng jeng, you have icy cold air blowing at your face.

i shall not disclose the total cost of repair but i can assured that his dad is good mechanic. so guys, do not hesistate to send your cars to KIAN NAM MOTOR REPAIRER for servicing.

have my car checked for air cond leakage

the culprit, air cond compressor suffered leakage

the brand new air-cond compressor

Denso Cool Gear ND-OIL 6 to replace the existing oil in the compressor

i was refilling the oil into the compressor

while my car was lifted up for compressor installation, i spotted this, oil leakage from front right absorber?

this is the left side of front absorber, got the sign of oil leakage

new air-cond hose to replace the old loose hose

had new drier installed too

thermometer in the car to monitor the air-cond temperature

disappointments

2008-08-18T18:47:00.003+08:00

our first ever dream for a olympics gold medal has gone into the drain as our natinal and world no.2 badminton player Mr. Lee Chong Wei has failed miserably in Beijing 2008 Men's Singles Final last night. he did not put up a great fight for the fame and glory. world no.1 Lin Dan took the gold medal as easy as taking a walk in the park. wonder what's wrong with Lee. i guess he could not bear with the tremendous pressure from our nation and the home crowd. however, i shall congrats him for his efforts to bring us a gold medal.

To Chong Wei, u did us proud! you are the third Malaysian Chinese that made it to the Final and the first Malaysian in Men's Singles Final.

Lee in despair. come on, be strong!

another disappointment was the sole chinese superstar, Liu Xiang in track and field has pulled out from the 110m hurdles due to hamstring injury. he seems to be restless even before the round 1 of 110m hurdles took place. he walked off the track even before the event started during the restart due to false start. what a shame that china has lost its only hope for a gold medal in track and field and Liu Xiang could not defend the gold medal.

i guess he was also suffered from extreme pressure from the 1.3 billion china people. there was something quite while i was watching it live from Astro, the crowds were soon leaving the Bird Nest after seeing their fellow countryman failed to retain the gold medal. how bad was that huh? show some support lah wei~

how suffering Liu Xiang was even before the event started..

kemaskini sekejap

2008-08-17T00:21:00.005+08:00

many things had happened for the past week. beijing olympics 2008 finally started. many records have been broken by the top athletes such Michael Phelps and Usain Bolt. Malaysia also not that bad because our national top and world no.2 top badminton Mr. Lee Chong Wei has made it into the Men Singles Final. hopefully we can win a gold medal or silver medal. better than nothing right.

saw this FUWA in first ever FUWA slam dunk competition. haha

the world's fastest man, Usain Bolt with 9.69seconds for 100 meters

inside the birdnest.

Michael Phelps with his don't know how many gold medals.

but something is very funny here, the chinese are exciting about their country total gold medals won and yet we as malaysian are all praying damn hard for our top player to get a medal (initially). this time we pray hard for a malaysian chinese to win a medal to do us proud (hopefully a gold medal).

someone that can really do us proud!

back to our nation. recently there is a group of people were very annoyed by a statement from a leader from opposition party ruling state. he stated that a well know (i think so) local higher education institution should open up its door to others in order to achieve better performance in terms academically and globally. and yet this group were very upset and many demonstrations were taken place throughout the country. what are they do this? scare of being (boh chi?) or nothing else better to do? are they afraid of those minorities will overcome them? or they are just plain ignorance/naive? well only they will know.

ok. back to personal stuff. last friday which was 080808. it was me and mong mong 4th year anniversary. we went out for dinner at Chili's at 1U. and our dinner started exactly at 8:08pm of 080808. how nice was that. ok if you need more photos and insights about it. please click here. then move on to my study life. life was not easy to be in my course. many labs lately. labs = reports. tons of reports need to be submitted. and people can be very deceiving. can't tell who's foes and who's allies. study life's a bitch. anyway life still moves on.

now i'm officially back in Malacca for a week. anyone back in Malacca can buzz me or contact me. i'm more than willing listen to all your needs. haha

stress management outing

2008-08-09T14:01:00.009+08:00

finally, fun time on thursday night. it was a outing to celebrate Kah Wee's birthday. so to grant his wish of have a hell of fun night, we decided to do it at the Scarlet inside of Cineleisure Damansara. we ordered a bottle of JW Black Label. then after a while, the group of 8 became a group of 16. crazy. the more the merrier. Kok Hoo's friends joined us and they ordered 2 jars of beer.

it was a great outing. had fun. most of the stress released. but can't always to have outing like this as it hurts (financially) haha.

a clear message to the clubbers!

the glasses are filled with full adrenalins!

apasal dengan budak tu dengan green tea can?

the musics make me go.. blur?

stress released, yeah babey~

nice place

something to share..

2008-08-01T10:18:00.002+08:00

today i wanna share some experience i met in my campus which i shall remain unnamed. but i guess most of you know the name of it. ok. i woke up early today, and went to the student's clinic to have my second dosage of injection for hepatitis B. upon reaching the clinic,

i was early and i quickly registered myself. then, i wait patiently for my turn. it is the clinic regulation that the patient must be examined by the nurse before one can seek the doctor's consultation. then, i proceed to the nurse section and the nurse told me that in order to get the hepatitis B injection, i must go to the treasury department to pay RM26 for that jab.(i was like WTF, what the hell i paid the charges for?) she added that i shouldn't have registered myself but i replied that i need to seek doctor's consultation for calcium supplement as i suffered from osteoprenia (signs of osteoporosis).

then again i have to wait for my turn. when my number showed on the electronic board that i should go to room 5, i quickly walked to room and entered. but they made a mistake saying i should go to room 4. ok. again, i waited. this time the number finally shown, and it is clearly my turn. entered the room, greet the doctor and sat down. the doc was looking at me one kind. i told him about the purpose of my visit. he read through my blood test and bone density report before writing the prescription. then i requested that whether i can have some vitamin supplement. he quickly replied no which saying due to what blah blah policies by the uni management, no supplement pills for student. (again, i was like WTF).

then went to the pharmacy to collect my calcium supplements. handed the prescription and WAIT eventhough i am the ONLY one there. ok waited for a while, collected the pills and i quickly went to treasury department which is situated approximately 2km from the clinic to pay the damn RM26.

upon reaching, i ran up to 2nd floor to pay, again waited for the number to blink eventhough i'm the only one there. paid and went down to 1st floor to check why the hell is my education loan haven't deposited into my bank account. again, waited for the number to blink. when it is finally my turn, they told me that they couldn't check for me as the system was down. (WTF!). disappointed.

then, went back to the clinic again and showed the receipt to counter just to photocopy it. ran to the pharmacy and present the receipt to the nurses in the treatment room to get the job done. again waited. the nurse's skill was bad when giving me the jab. it's kinda painful as she simply did the job. (WTF). done and went home.

the moral of the story is, one to need to have all the time in world when he/she needs to deal with my campus. bad services. why need to the medical charges eventhough it is already charged by the treasury department? why students can't request for vitamins supplements? why the hell you need pay the money at a place which is situated so bloody far away? why can't just pay directly? bad time management, low productivity and the list goes on. and i am very disappointed today.

by the way i have something to show you guys.

this is the word they used to described a faulty CPU in tertiary education level.. it is not found in Bahasa Malaysia nor English. what a joke!

a little bit update

2008-07-29T20:01:00.004+08:00

lately nothing much going on my car modifications list. just did normal alignment and balancing at a tyre shop outside my place after i felt my car handling was a little weird. did front disc skimming too after felt vibration while depressing the brake pedal. changed front disc brake pads which is necessary after disc skimming. also, changed to a better car alarm (cheapo cap ayam). that's all for now. more to come if i have $$$. haha

flashback~

2008-07-28T19:35:00.007+08:00

the other day i was browsing through some files in my home pc, then found out that i have tons of songs which i have not listen since ages ago. since i have nothing to do, so i decided to choose a few must-listen-songs from a few bands to recall some memories from those day when i am still a metal music freak! those songs i selected are

'The Beautiful People' by Marilyn Manson

'Die Motherfucker Die' by Dope

'Master of Puppets' by Metallica

'Blind' by KoRn

'Cowboys from Hell' by Pantera

'Guerilla Radio' by Rage Against The Machine

'Bombshell' by Powerman 5000

'Chop Suey' by System Of A Down

all songs by Slipknot (my all-time favourite)!

i have also selected a few songs from other bands but there are too many for me to list them all out in here. songs from murderdolls, mudvayne, trivium, motorhead, HIM, AC/DC, coal chamber are nice to listen to once a while. although now i seldom listen to metal music but i still like them alot and i guess not many people know that. haha. only those who know me well.

these musics reminds me of those days in secondary when most of my friends were into music scene such as jamming and etc. it is good to recall such memories. haha. and currently listen to these musics bring different kind of feeling. but no matter what, i still have the metal blood inside of me. haha metal rules! haha

sabah trip pt11 - 13th june

2008-07-24T09:24:00.015+08:00

on the last day of the Sabah trip, we went to Monsopiad Cultural Village, which cost us RM20 per pax. we got up later abit this day cause all of us were half past dead. we separated in 2 cars which me and alex became drivers of the day. upon reaching the cultural village, we were alil bit late for the show, after registering, we quickly move to the stage to catch the performance and luckily we were still on time. the show was nice and around 1 hour long. we also joined in the bamboo dance, it was fun. during the performance, the workers there served us drinks too.

after the show, we went to redeem a complimentary rice wine because it was supposed to be served during the show, never mind, better late than nothing.

after rice wine session, a nice lady tour guide showed us around the village, first was the hanging bridge, this bridge is built for unsure reason, maybe too much money kot. haha.

then next to the house of skulls, in this house, it showcase the skulls collected Monsopiad, the true kadazan warrior. all of these skulls are real human skulls. also, there were many traditional items in the house such as traditional accessories and pictures of the high priests. we were supposed chant something which shown on top of the door before entering but we did not. according to the tour guide, it is ok because the door was opened and there were people inside, so we were lucky. haha

then back to the village, we had fun while playing some traditional games and tour around the village to check out some of the traditional tools and long house. unfortunately alex was not feeling well due to minor food poisoning.

then we went back to town to have lunch and alex left us as he needed some rest. we had triangle chicken rice. after lunch, we bought some dried seafood at very low price.

then we headed back to elsa place on 2 separate trips, cause only had 1 car. me again the driver. haha. upon reaching home, took a quick shower and pack up everything and become the driver yet again to fetch them to the airport. the traffic jam in Sabah during the rush hour is almost like in KL. i was stucked in a jam while fetching the second group. we were almost late for the flight but thanks for alex's fast and furious driving skill, we were on time to collect the boarding pass. had dinner at the airport and rush to the departure hall. and board the plane and find our seats. i was sleeping throughout the journey. damn tired wei

we reached KL LCCT about 2230 and there was no transport for us to go back malacca. cheong hong and mei syn went back with cheong hong's sister. then left 6 of us spent the night at LCCT. i was unable to sleep well throughout the night. watched Euro'08 and lepak at McD.

we catch the earliest bus back to PuduRaya (0630) and bought the 0900 bus back to malacca. i slept throughout both of the trip and luckily did not missed the stop from LCCT back to Pudu. reached malacca at 1100 and finally, home sweet home after 11days of adventurous trip.

love the trip though.

sabah trip pt 10 - 12th of june

2008-07-18T23:12:00.018+08:00

this day, we went for island hopping. in the island hopping, it is RM30 per pax and RM10 for the snorkelling sets also per pax. the package allowed us to choose 3 out of 5 islands and we chose Pulau Mamutik, Pulau Manukan and Pulau Sapi. all these islands are all under a national park called Tunku Abdul Rahman Park.

our first island was Pulau Manukan. upon reaching, we just straight get ready for snorkelling. all of us went for snorkelling but only the guys stayed longer in the water. then, one of the park ranger caught a jellyfish and brought it to the beach for us to see. it is part of his job to catch jellyfish to prevent unwanted incident to happen. we took turns to camwhore with the poor jellyfish before buried it.

then, the next island, Pulau Manukan, which is the largest among the 3 islands and it is also the most crowded island. the water activities provided are more and of course, more pricey. again, we for snorkelling and the girls were hanging out by the beach. us the guys were snorkelling accompanied by the tour guide as he wanted to show us beautiful corals around the island. then he spotted sea snake and wanted us to swim back asap. phew. close call. then, we went up to the beach and had our lunch there (very expensive lunch) RM5 for 2 dishes of mixed rice. then, we buried aho and had a great time there.

next, the last island, Pulai Sapi. again we went for snorkel and our tour guide showed us the fish house (just a giant coral which full of fishes). then the girls were resting by the beach and we the guys had a quick wrestling session. after that, we took a very quick shower and took the last boat back to KK.

the last night in KK, we went for dinner at Gunter's Gasthaus. it is a german restaurant. and it provides menu of all you can eat and paid only for the most expensive plate, from 6.30-8.00pm. But you have to clear your plate first before ordering the next one. and i have eaten 3 plates. all of us were rushing to finish the food as they can get to eat more at the price of 1 plate.

after the dinner, then we headed to 1Borneo to catch a movie. the movie of the night was The Incredible Hulk. the cinema was nice as the it provides spacious seats. very comfy.

throughout the night, they were secretly planning a surprise birthday for me. they rushed to buy cake and late for the movie. they were successful at it as i was totally unaware about it. haha. again thanks alot guys! really appreciate it. haha..

sabah trip pt 9 - 11th of june

2008-07-09T11:55:00.012+08:00

we woke up around 0900 thanks shiek thing's morning call. we were a little bit late for the snake island trip. then mong mong was very reluctant to join us for the trip as you know lah the reason. but due to our power of persuade, she was finally gave in and joined us. there were 9 of us but we only rented 2 set of snorkelling sets. how pathetic. never mind. hop on the boat and off we go to Snake Island (RM25 per pax and snorkelling set is RM30).

snake island is a small island (almost as big as a Semi-D Double Storey House, see how small is that) which full of SNAKES. really it is. but during day time, the snakes will remain inactive and it is safe to visit that island. we stayed there around 30 mins and the guides managed to caught a few sea snakes for us to play with. aho, cheong hong, mei syn and elsa managed to hold the snakes by themselves while i have to stay with mong mong to console her and calm her down during the whole trip (kesian mong mong). also it is strongly advisable not to visit this island during night. and if you insist on going, then you can consider yourself in a big pile of shit!

then move on the sand pit. it is just an island filled with sands. nothing else. duh, that's why they called it sand pit right. it is a nice place to hang out and snorkel but there wasn't any corals around the sand pit. but the water is nice and clear. some snorkelling session and camwhoring session around the sand pit.

after that, we went back pulau tiga and continue our diving session for a while. then settle lunch and take a bath. packed up and camwhored for a moment.

we bid farewell to this lovely island at 1400 and back to KK.

sabah trip pt 8 - 10th of june

2008-07-08T18:42:00.013+08:00

this day, our destination was Pulau Tiga, the survivor island (still the venue for the very first popular reality tv show survivor?). this trip cost us RM178 per pax which included meals, lodging and transportation from kuala penyu to pulau tiga.

we got up as early as possible (around 0600), and then took a private van (for rental) to bus station. the driver was good to helped us ask around the transport to kuala penyu. in the end we bought bus tickets (1 borneo bus RM12 per pax) to Kayul Station. again most of us slept during the journey. then upon reaching Kayul Station, we hoped onto a private van to Kuala Penyu Jetty which cost RM2 per pax and reached the jetty before 1000.

then, we took speed boat to Pulau Tiga and it took us around 20 to 30 mins to reach there, and upon reaching, the guys at Pulau Tiga Resort gave slight briefing about the island and activities available and then showed us our room. after putting all our stuff in the room, then begin to explore the island (the beach was kinda disappointing as it was full of rubbish and dirty due to huge waves). first, we cam whored around the resort. then played beach volleyball. then had buffet lunch and rest for a moment.

then we jungle trek to MUDVOLCANO. it is actually mud from volcano and you can dip inside the mud pool. it is said to be good for skin. after mud volcano, we jungle trek again to other side of the island to clean ourselves and we walked almost 3km for this trip.

after the jungle trekking, some of us went back to the room to take a bath while me, aho, cheong hong, mei syn and elsa went to the jetty and have some fun there.

then, we went for dinner and took bath after that. our night started with some pool and karaoke session. too bad that the entertainment closed early and we went back to the room to play UNO. then, some of us went out to have a chat by the seaside. i joined them later for a moment as i was dead beat tired.

more to come after this!

sabah trip pt 7 - 9th of june

2008-07-08T13:44:00.003+08:00

this day, we woke up early to embark on an adventure trip to the Sungai Padas for white water rafting. sounds cool right? Elsa helped us to booked for the tour offered by BUSAT (Borneo Ultimate Sports Adventure Tours Sdn. Bhd) and it cost RM180 per pax. the package includes transportation from KK to the Sungai Padas (Pangi, Tenom) and back to KK.

unfortunately i do not have any photos for this days because we did not bring any camera as this is an adventure trip, so valuable stuff are not advisable to bring along.

so i have to post this on words. this is how the adventure trip is

0730hrs Depart from Kota Kinabalu.
0900hrs Arrive in Tenom
1000hrs Trolley to the Starting Point.
1120hrs Arrive Pangi - light refreshment & safety briefing.
1200hrs Rafting on Padas River.
1530hrs Return to Beaufort.
1700hrs Depart to Kota Kinabalu.

ok let me describe Sg Padas a little bit. taken this from the web

"Padas River is situated in the interior of southwestern part of Kota Kinabalu that is only accessible by train. Basically, this trip will give you two experiences advantages - 1) Excursion of Class III-IV river, 2) Get chance for the train ride from Tenom to Pangi.

The adrenaline rush excursion covers a distance of 9km of this rather muddy 200 km river that holds 7 exciting and tough rapids! The 30km white water rafting, making it the longest rafting journey in Borneo.

These rapid carries amusing names such as Merry-Go-Round Rapid, Break Point Rapid, Scooby Doo Rapid, Cobra Rapid, Curve Rapid, Lambada Rapid and Head Hunter Rapid. Each rapid will give you the feel of the motion as what the name means. "

a total 8 of us went for this trip. we divided ourselves into 3 and 5 due to 2 mat sallehs joined us for the trip. me, mong mong, pohching, shiek thing and not forgetting Alex in a raft while cheong hong, aho and meisyn joined the mat sallehs in another raft. a raft can hold maximum 8 person. our instructor of the day named EKILSAN (hope i never spelled wrong his name) haha. he's a nice person to chat with and very friendly.

actually our rafting trip was longer than when Elsa went there. so we roughly spent around 2 hours on rafting. we too managed to conqueored all of the rapids without capsizing our raft.

after the rafting, we carried our stuff into the train and had our lunch in the train (KFC again and some fruits). then upon reaching in Beaufort, we were spared a few minutes to change into dry clothes and return to KK. and most of us slept in the van back to KK. all were dead beat tired!

t.djan smiling althought he didn't win

the results of this round of Star Drift is 1st Tan Tat Wei, 2nd Ah Boi and 3rd is T.Djan.

the show is nice but I didn’t get the chance to sit in the car with T.Djan. you just need to pay RM35 to get a thrill ride with the star drifter. I hope I can get to do so in the coming round of Star Drift. Haha.
