Conquering the Cat City (Part 2)
-Day 3-

A visit to Jong's Crocodile Farm...

Must not miss the feeding time of the Crocodile. This is the most interesting part of all. The staff were reeling away the food (chicken, I think) during the feeding session.

Crocodile Feeding Time.

Observe the reaction of those crocodiles patiently. The crocodile have to aim the food and emerge from the water in order to get it. Frankly, I quite pity those crocodile as they need to hop several times to grab the food. Kinda tiring and need lotz of energy isn't it?!

Ever wonder why crocodile has it's mouth shape like that?? Maybe it kisses too much. Hahaha..

Crocodile with 'senget' mouth.

Next station ->

Pitcher Plant & Wild Orchid Garden.

It's time to explore pitcher plants as we rarely found it at Peninsular Malaysia.

Nice Pitcher Plant.

Wild Orchids

However, it's such a pity that those pitcher plants & wild orchids were not well-preserved in this garden. Most of the plants weren't fresh and looks almost half-dead.

Huge but Half dried-up Pitcher Plant.

Have you ever heard that each & every citizens in Kuching rear an Orang Utan in their home? This Orang Utan represents the status of that particular family. The wealthier the family, the bigger the Orang Utan! Don't believe me?? Make a trip to Kuching to found out whether it is true...

Next Station ->

Semenggoh Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre.

This Wildlife Centre is a place to preserve Orang Utans. There were altogether 24 Orang Utans in this centre. They weren't caged and were allow to move around freely. It was kinda dangerous as the Orang Utans might attack you!

Orang Utans coming to the feeding trail from the deep jungle.

The best visiting time is of course at the feeding hour. In fact, there was nothing much besides that time. We were allow to enter the feeding trail during the feeding hour. All of us have to remain silent while entering the feeding trail so that we won't scare off those Orang Utans. This is when those Orang Utans were released from the deep jungles.

Look!! A baby Orang Utan swinging freely on the tree. It was so cute when it make a 360 degree turn.

Conquering the Cat City (Part 1)
Just came back from Kuching Trip wif my coursemates. It was overall a FUN & ENJOYABLE trip. Visited lotz of places and tried lotz of food. Although the weather condition wasn't that perfect, but it didn't affect our trip much. Gonna divide my Kuching Trip into several posts as there are tOOoo many things & pictures to share throughout the week.

Booked the air ticket to Kuching during the 0 fare promotion in February. The air ticket to and forth to JB and Kuching cost only RM63, which is very cheap! No wonder AirAsia came out with the slogan - Now Everyone Can Fly. Hahaha...

I was informed that my flight time was changed 1 week b4 my trip to Kuching. Both the to and forth flight time was delayed! This certainly brings inconvenience to me.

-Day 1-

Met a few Muarian that is currently pursuing their degree at UTM. Hui Min & Jing Ying (QS Students) and also Sock Fei & Yi Chyi (Marketing Students) at Senai Airport. What a coincidence, they were in the same flight as me to Kuching. Didn't know that Muarian like to visit Kuching that much. Hehe..

At Senai International Airport, b4 heading to Kuching.

It wasn't very comfortable to sit in the plane coz the space was kinda narrow. The seats in an express bus is much more comfortable.

View from the plane.


This visiting pass is required for those from Penisular Malaysia. This pass needs to be kept and must be shown at the Immigration Counter in order to leave Sawarak. I was wondering, aren't we from the same country? Why do we need a pass to travel within the same country?

Visiting pass to Sarawak. Permitted to enter & remain in Sarawak for 90 days from the date shown above.


Arrived at Kuching around 8pm. Lovena's parents and aunt came and pick us up at the airport. Had dinner together at 101 Food Court. Later on, Lovena brought us around to see some big houses before going back to her house. That was all for the first day.


***********

-Day 2-

Visited Lovena's School after breakfast.

St. Joseph's School Kuching.

St. Joseph's Catheral, Kuching. A Church right opposite St. Joseph School.

The Civic Centre (The "Big Umbrella")

Can see the entire Kuching Town from the top of the Civic Centre.

Visited some of the museums including The Natural History Museum, Art Museum, The Sawarak Museum. A trip to the museum will give you an idea on the culture & heritage of Sarawak.

The Natural History Museum, Art Museum, The Sawarak Museum.

Later at night...


Cat Hunt at Town Area



Walked all the way to the waterfront after taking pictures with the Cat Statues. Planned to play bowling at first, but ended up at The Waterfront. Thanks to our organizer with her 'strategic' plan.

Us with the hornbill water fountain behind.

The story of The Mousedeer & The Crocodile carved on the wall. Nice carving. Found it toward the end of the Waterfront.

TO BE CONTINUED....

Season Finale of Sem 3
Yeah!! I'm finally back home! Felt like I haven't been home 4 so long although it was only a month since I last came back. Felt so relief!

A little shocked when I saw this Halloween Ghost decoration at home. It was my younger brother that came out with these decoration. So 'bersemangat' to celebrate Halloween.

Halloween Ghost decoration. Thanks to my creative brother that make those Halloween Ghost with tissue paper.

Finished my final exam last Wednesday, but have to stay back for Computer Graphics Final Project presentation, which burdens me a lot. Really had a hard time for the past few days, been struggling a lot coz I don't really how what am I suppose to do!

The most frustrating part is : When others were spending so much effort doing their project and you were stuck there, lost in no where, don't know what to do. However, what comfort me was that I'm not the only one in this situation...

I'd finally come out with something out of nothing. At least got something to present. Suddenly had the idea of drawing a tower, get the idea of this tower from the Taming Sari Tower in Malacca.

Does it looks like a tower in the outer space??

The presentation day was making us frustrated too. We were required to run our program using the computer in the lab(which is not well-equipped with the program we need to use) instead of using our own laptop. Need to make lots of setting and installation in order to run the program. But in the end, the presentation day was so much better then what I'd imaging. Most of us get to present our project successfully. We'd finally make it through.

In difficult times, this Bible verse always encourage me.

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. "


In the midst of final exams last 2 weeks and the schedule was kinda pack! 6 Papers + 1 online exam. However, there are some 'weird' things that we'll only do during examination time. For this time, we're so addicted in playing games!

The new version of Zuma - Zuma's Revenge, which me & my course-mates was so addicted to it during exam period.

They are blaming me for this 'addiction' coz I'm the one that supply this game to them!

Excuse Me, this wasn't my fault ok?? They are the one that come and get the game from me!!! Hahaha....Visit my neighbour next door and next next door and found them all playing Zuma! I guess this is a form of escapism and a way to release stress! No doubt this newer version of Zuma was more fun as it has more functions than the older version.

I did had fun besides the busy schedule. Played bowling together with my cell group members @ Skudai Parade.

Bowling @ Skudai Parade with CG members.

10 bowling shoes represents the 10 of us.

It was my first time playing bowling and it was FUN. Although the bowling ball keep on falls into the 'longkak' at first, but I managed to hit the pins after trying a few times. And guess what, I managed to strike all the bowling pins for the first time. Wuhoo~~It was a great achievement for me.

It has come to the end of 3rd Semester. Looking forward to my Kuching Trip coming Friday. Had been planning for it since the beginning of the year. The time has finally come.....
