Pre-Borneo Jazz Festival : Rush Hour

WOW!!! I don't even know where and how do I start this. It's been a real long day, REALLY LONG DAY! Rush Hour sums up everything that I had been through today. BUT it doesn't mean I am going through a gloomy day, INSTEAD I'm having FUN!

Woke up as early as 5.00 am may not sounds interesting BUT kick start the morning with this breathtaking view definitely worth the effort. Cool wind breeze, warm sunshine and calming sea. The zen moment which I always seek for. 


The greening activity or better known as the Tree Planting ceremony had been a routine and part of CSR which STB had never neglected. The only thing that rotates is the venue itself. Selecting Piasau Nature Reserves, Miri as the venue for such ceremony was an act to support the promotion of nature conversation and also giving awareness to the public the importance of mother nature which we should be concerning of. It ain't just government or organization who should take charge. It shall be everyone's responsibility to preserve existing nature.


 How can you be part of the greening activity when you are not playing with the soil? It wouldn't be right to call a contribution to mother nature if you wasn't planting any trees and contributing least bits back to earth. Walking 1.5km into the woods and everyone planted their trees according to coordination that they had marked earlier on. A great effort that the committee had put in and kudos to them.


It ain't end yet. Media Briefing was conducted on the same day 2.00pm at Lambir Hall, Parkcity Everly Hotel, Miri. All media will be briefed and given information in depth of the performers, the selection process and also what was the extraordinary agenda that's happening. Indeed, the committee are having a hard time this year round to get the selection  process done. It is the 10th Anniversary and they have to select 8 bands out of 72 of them from previous 9 years, they just struggled.


Great things just have to continue till we called it a day. We are deeply honored to be invited for the welcoming dinner at Meritz Hotel. However, just right before we indulged to makan-makan, The Nylons had a quick preview at Bintang Megamall itself which I missed out due to work commitment. I heard tonnes of great things about them and I am looking forward for their performances on the first night of the concert, 8th May 2015 (Friday). It is indeed something extraordinary this year to be part of Borneo Jazz with duo status. Ain't easy and bigger responsibility BUT I'm "indulging" in such status. Being at work and have fun, that's MAX satisfaction! 



Before signing off this post (old fashioned =.="') , a quick reminder to those who haven't get their tickets, please grab it fast. It is still available on sell at the official hotel, Parkcity Everly Hotel, Miri at the price of RM70.00. In case you didn't know too, the concert will be helf on 8th (Friday) & 9th (Saturday) May 2015. 

See you there!
Jumpa kamu sana!

Angels & Demons

This is another great production after DaVinci Code. This is greater, excited and more knowledgeable movie. This movie is more to Christian history and all the ceremony and nevertheless famous place that Christian treat as honourable. I have nothing much to comment on this movie as I think from the beginning till the end the story was quite good. The flow is indeed smooth and connected. I did enjoy the time Tom Hanks search for clue to find the candidate popes where they were hide and the place they will get killed. There is so much excitement in it. My feeling was just like a roller coaster going ups and downs without knowing what would it be the next moment. I could only give two thumbs up for it. Don't believe what I said? Watch it yourself and you will know what I meant.

Photography

Recently, I am up to more nature photography. Those who know me well knows that I am always girl with my babe (camera) around. Non stop taking food places and something which is akward and new to my eyes. Nowadays I find out that the view out from my balcony and window is so tentative and fascinating that I did not realise before. Here are some shot that I had taken and I hope for some comment for my improvement in future! SUNSET FROM WINDOW VIEW For this picture, I take in two ways. a wish for brighter sky but somehow when I get the color of sky I want the light out from the blue cloud could not be seen clearly. Only when I set it to darker mode then the light out of the cloud could be emphasize out. LIGHT, SIGN OF BETTER DAY

YOU TIAO & JOHN KING TART

YOU TIAO is what we called in Chinese and ' YAO ZA GUAI ' is what Cantonese named it and this food is said to be origin from Cantonese people. This is one of the high demand food in Pavilion. It is simple, non-oily and reasonable in price. Their freshly made Tau Foo Far taste great and it is so smooth and doesn't have much of the bean taste which make people hardly love to eat them..... You Tiao - It is so crispy to eat just like that or you wanted to eat with their plain porridge would also be great because the combination of both makes perfect!!! Porridge - Their porridge is not so hardened or over watery. I guess that's the perfect way to describe. It is just alright and you can hardly see the rice but instead it is little sticky which a porridge should have.... After having that, my friend continuing exploring other food in the section. We go for the tart that had been very popular and keep mentioning by those who had ever had them. The legendary tart, ...
