Sibu Island

I AM BACK! back from survivor island! I'm not exaggerating but the place is seriously survivor island to me. The games we played were fun though super tiring. My body is still aching all over now. But the place was simply too basic for me to live in.

What does this look lk to u?

The first thing that blurted out from my dad's mouth when he saw this pic was "toilet ar?" NOOOOO i stayed in there! there's no door can! the toilet, the main door, were just covered by a cloth! We had to inform each other not to go into the toilet whenever we are doing something tt should involve closing the door.

I slept in a mosquito net.

Poor me, I was bitten by some unknown thing on the first night there, leaving me sleepless for the entire night. My entire neck started itchy and patches started appearing on my arm. Worst of all, half my face, esp my eyes were swollen and numb, leaving me with no eyes to be seen (i can feel my goosebumps while typing this) Fortunately for me, the itchy and patches on my arm went off by the time I woke up and the swell on my eyes went down by lunch time. SO SCARY!!

Before i move on, I need to make a point to comment my wonderful colleague who shared a bed with me (there's another double bed in the hut we lived so we decided to share it). She slept liked a dead log while i tossed and turned so uncomfortably in bed. After almost an hour of tossing, she finally moved so I decided to tell her my condition. GUESS WHAT?!?! she just said "oh no. you have no eyes. what can i do?" and fell back into her deep sleep IMMEDIATELY! I could have just died beside her! sigh.......

We had to take a speed boat to reach Sibu island.

The place is really dark at night and my hut was soo far in. I was basically stumbling through the dark. The place is really this dark. It's not becoz of my cam.

No offense to Caucasians reading this blog now but this place seems to be a paradise to the Caucasians. I've no idea why they dig kampong life. I love civilization!!!!!! All beaches in Malaysia look the same to me. Clear water, mountains in front etc but other places have sooo much nicer resorts!

Chilling out after breakfast with my recovering swollen eye...
All of us before the start of all the strenuous activities like trekking through the jungle, running and jumping around on the beach.

Some pics of my team taken for the treasure hunt game we played

There's a bar for us to hang out on the island where everyone got pissed drunk all the time as they were drinking beer like water the entire day.

The Orange Timber

Today was a pretty chill day, walking around, eating and reading my book! It has been a long time since I walked along Blk 85 market. I think the last time was during my sec sch days, on my way back to my grandma house after sch. Since I had breakfast there with my grandma today, I showed der the old sch cake shop where Cham and I bought a huge cream cake (not those fanciful ones we get these days) and finished it all by ourselves under the void deck! Der and I couldn't resist the temptation to buy a slice each :) Strawberry vs blueberry...Only $1.10 each. Those miniture ones that are sold at toast box cost $1.20 and they are only 1/3 the size of this! What a rip off for something nostalgia... Later in the evening, we decided to chill at The Orange Timber @ Tiong Bahru The Orange Timber is a cafe cum art gallery. The plates are bowl used were also meant to be something nostalgia once again... hah However, I use those cutlery at home too. There are like 3 sections to this small cafe...

Having the Chills

If you, Derrick is ever reading this, I would suggest you close this page. It's my right to type whatever I want. I won't mince my words because this is my space. I hardly feel unwell and this not the best time to fall sick. Yet I'm having the chills. Whenever my boob hurts, I will start to get the chills and a little temperature. It had to come at the time when i'm feeling totally not in the mood to do anything. I think I should swallow a few more pills. What I had isn't enough. Guess feeling down really brings down one's immune system. We just got news that we will be moving back to Singapore and the first thing that came to my mind is F*** I've to face her. That fake face (literally fake. No amount of make up helps la. old means old. draw what draw) who pretends she doesn't care or even when we talk face to face she says no no it's ok. PUI! Der will be unhappy reading this but i blame it on him for making the situation like this. No amount of ...

Bigger Issue

Now a bigger issue has risen for us to worry about. Due to unfortunate circumstances, LA seems to be going through an apocalypse. Everyone is told to stay at home. Schools, libraries, malls, everything is closed. No more dine in restaurants, only take out and delivery. Only shops that are open are mainly grocery stores and there are either limited food choices or there are queues to get in so as to ensure "social distancing". This "social distancing" is the in word now. I am not very sure about this term. But the distancing sux. It's so quiet everywhere, I feel like a zombie would appear in front of me any moment.  I just got news that even playgrounds will be closed starting tomorrow. How scary is that? Even though it has been scary going to the playground these days because we always end up being the only family there, at least the kids get to run a round a bit.  It is tough staying home with 2 kids. I feel frustrated and a bit lost. I don't want Ch...
