Kent's Station

We have a new stall in the cafeteria. It's called Kent's station. In my previous post titled Pros & Cons I made mistake with the name Kent's Corner because it is in the corner LOL! They served western,asian & fusion foods like Fish & Chips, Pasta(Spagetti), baked cheese rice. I ordered their Fish & Chips and it was pretty good. Fish fillet served with fries, a slice of lemon and tartar sauce yumm. On the first look it was delish and it was! for cafeteria standard :P but it was definitely not filling for me. RM8.90 per plate. You be the judge.

Kent's Station - Fish & Chips

It's Sunday yo

I didn't have anything to blog about the whole month of the semester break because there isn't anything going on. I was in KK and I did blog the exciting activities like Wetland Safari & White water rapid rafting. KK is my second home and just basically spend family time with my mom, ray & sid who i miss dearly already. I strengthen ties with my relatives in KK too. I went to 1Borneo, wow it is big - shopping malls, hotels, clubs all in one place! I need a credit card if i really want to enjoy the 1Borneo "lifestyle" XD

After mass Aldon & I went for breakfast at a coffeeshop around pujut 2. In my opinion, i think they serve the best laksa and "mien pok" in Miri!

"Mein pok"

You can have "mien pok" in dark soy sauce or with chillie sauce variant

Laksa!!

*Random.. Assorted chocolates, I was hungry. In the afternoon la XD*

Friendship never ends

Man, mart's going has gone back to KL and soon back to Brisbane. My buddy since St.CO? Gonna miss you man & you taught me a great lesson - be less pussy with girls HAHA. All the best bro. Thx to your parents for the dinner at Grandpalace, it was delish :P & I finally had the chance to meet your whole family.

Mart, Avery & me

Me & Rach

Ave & Rach

Martin & his little brother, Norman

After dinner, 4 of us - Me, Ave, Mart & Ian headed for Island for a round of cocktail. We had Rocket Fuel! Guess what? We finished it in 2 parts. Half a glass at a time, not sip oh! We went to Balcony since it was too late for TB. Funny thing is TB wasn't happening that friday night.. We partied till 5am gosh with beers as company haha. Ave & I had this vodka drink which is blue in colour? No pictures were taken but we just had fun XD

I'm back!

Hey people. I'm back from my KK holidays and I can't wait to upload photos unto my blog. It's not much but I want to show you guys some of the outdoors i experience & my mom side of the family. I'm the eldest among my couzs but the title "Kevin Kor Kor" is so cool. I'm in charge of them, a role model - rite, slash that part HAHA. I'm so frustrated with the internet today, why is it so damn SLOW!!!

White Water Rafting - Kiulu

AL JO Wetland Safari

Today we drove around 2 hours from KK to Beaufort. Why are we going there? I learned that Beaufort is very well-known for it's sweet "gum". If you are clueless i understand because in chinese it's how we called it, in fact it is the green-skinned oranges. Usually it's sour but in Beaufort theirs are sweet. Mom bought lots of fruits, " We have to have at least 2 serving of fruits a day. Especially now when the H1N1 is on the rise!" yes mom. Thx to you we healthy haha XD.

Around 4pm we started to head for AL JO riverside cafe. It's around another 1 hour drive from Beaufort town IF you don't get lost. That's what happened to us, we missed a turning and drove 20 mins to a dead end. Finally we found the place and it started to rain.

Welcome

Snacks of pisang & keladi goreng were served before we start our adventure. Due to the rain it's no point starting early as the Pak Cik says even the monkeys would take shelter. We put on our ponchos and then our life jackets before we depart. It will be a 1 hour and a half boat ride..

Mom, Sid & Ray

We saw monkeys, proboscis monkeys, flying foxes, fireflies & wild water buffaloes. Actually there are so much more wildlife you can see along this river as i read from AL-JO's website, maybe it wasn't our luck that day. My first time seeing fireflies!! Like small christmas lights blinking in the trees. Fireflies are attracted to the hormone of certain trees along the river.

Boathouse

Other groups

A family of proboscis monkeys

Proboscis monkeys - an adult with a kid, best closest shot i got

Proboscis monkeys has got a long orange nose, a big belly and a strong white tail. They don't have bones to protect their internals like us humans we have our rib cage to protect our lungs and heart etc. that's why they're born with strong tails to swing from tree to tree. If they fall, they die because their internals rupture or bleed you know.

A beautiful sight

Going back

Water buffaloes

If it didn't rain, we would have seen the breathtaking sunset but not today. You look at the pictures my aunt took when she came to this river 3 years back. Man, the orange sky was like nothing i have ever seen. Back at the cafe, they served us dinner which definitely more that enough for the 4 of us. Chicken curry was damn good!

Dinner time!

This was an interesting experience for me. It's different from the fast-paced lifestyle back home in the city. I would love to explore nature again like this, get away from the hectic things in life and see nature as it is which has not as much worries as us? XD
