- The second half of March and The first half of April -

Alright people, i admit i'm lazy to write even a blog entry here. It's just so pathetic. Assignments and Projects pilling up. Mid-term after week free, which i don't think it's free anyway. Right. Lots of events and happening i would like to cramp into one entry tonight. I would want to characterize into couple of parts. Hope u bear with me course i'm still improving my grammar and English. I just realize the structure of my English sentences are definitely bad. Anyway, besides mountains of academic pilling up, non stop activities that could hold me till i can't breath a words.

CSSCSM Outing to Niah Trip

Yes. Judging from what i want to tell ya, it's really great and fun trip. Not that i want to be proud or anything, it's my fourth time to Niah Caves. So, more or less i know the route well. Like i've said, i know the route well, except for some path that is renovating at that time, i become the tour guide for the day. Fun i can say. Anyway, around 25 of us depart early in the morning. We reached there around 9 am. We took the boat ride and it seems that it will be a long and winding road for me that day.

Boat ride that cost RM2 for 2 ways in Outside Niah Caves

There's three caves actually. The first i called it The badminton court caves because on the caves itself path a big court. I wonder if the cave man who path it. The second caves was the dark caves i presume because u'll need a torch, a strong and powerful power or battery or whatever u want to call it, to get through the dark caves. Slippery, beautiful and magnificent caves which will take your breath away. Literary, the caves are cover with layers of guanos. Yes, in a way, it's bird shit covered the steps all the way to the exit of the caves.

The Dark Caves aka the Second Caves

Anyway, we reach the painting caves around noon. Took us hours and finally for the first time, we can touch... not touch observe the starting of the human evolution. Muahahahhahahha.......
Good. Good. Good. Everyone is tired and they are all having a good experiences climbing up and down the stairs and path in the caves. Here are some pictures that shows the beauty of nature. Enjoy.

Preparation of the Stations of the Cross in Easter Camp

Ok, there's lots and lots of picture to view but that's not the end of it. Still, Easter just past and it's been a great experience for Christ has Risen from the dead, He has conquered the death. Right. CSS was given a chance to perform and act in a drama again. Sounds great right. Well, the preparation was extremely enjoyable and amusing as some point, Catholic Student Society can be view as Crazy Student Society. Sounds crazy eh. haha.. pictures worth a thousand words. These are all the pictures that captured our moments together in the rehearsal.

- Night at the Washroom -

This is kind of unusual and it's worth a story telling to whoever want to know about this story.

Well, it's not really a story. I was in campus having class for 2 hours. Guess what, i off my valves and let it stays in the pipe to listen to something more important in class. When class finished, i quickly ran to the washroom without telling my friends who are asking where am i going. [My heart was saying, my pipe is going to blow any time soon].

Anyway, as i went in to the toilet,


Ok this is how the toilet looks like. Luckily there's no one inside it, or something like that. Anyway, i quickly search for an empty, comfortable and conducive toilet which is clean though.


And i found one. And i let the valve open. And i felt very relief.... AH~~~~~~

Then suddenly i saw this one the wall just in front of me that leave me fazed......


WHAT!?!?!?!?!? Do i really need to do that????? Ok, it's very irritating. Especially I'm studying in an International well known university here...... Don't believe me, have time to visit the toilet when u are free.. oh the location??? Situated in ME Building Toilet. I was surprise that there's only this kind of notice pasted on the toilet of Engineering Building. When i went into the Commerce Building Toilet, i saw nothing was pasted on it. Is it just me or other people who started to wonder that the ME building toilet is unhygienic??

Start scribble down your comments anytime soon.

- Blogging... again... -

25th February, 2007.

I would like to make a toast to me, myself and I, for celebrating couple of events that had happened for the past few weeks. First of all it's the 1st Anniversary of my blog. Happy Birthday to fabian5822.blogspot.com for being 1 year old. No doubt for the past few months i hadn't been update my blog but i will try to push forward and update myself all the time.

Second of all, it's my Birthday. Yes. Valerian Fabian Chung Yun Khim turns 22 this year. One year older in the year of Pig. A year full with eat, sleep and more routine. Regardless of i'm still working in SOP, i wish things would got better this year. On the day of my birthday itself, i had a very taboo experience of listening to the phone while leaving the consequences unbearable. While talking on the phone, i heard broken glass in the house. I totally ignore it because i knew something bad happened. My friend actually broke my favorite clay glass which i bought from one of the church in the suburb area. It's not that i mind, but something like that happened during my birthday is just... bad. (thinking of some vocab to use).

Third of all, Happy Valentine's Day to all the couples around the globe considering i'm still a bachelor here. Anyway, i hope all of u out there enjoy this Month, full of Love. Love is just in the air.

[sitting here blogging] 2333. Raining. Hard to say anything because it's the Eighth Day of Chinese New Year. I mean, am i suppose to feel happy about completing the training i was going through for the past few months in the remote jungle of Borneo? Palm Oil is just another demand from commercializing and practicing on how to manage my future. Like wise, i have to crack my head to start writing the report tomorrow. I wasn't in the mood of doing it considering it's Chinese New Year and everyone was celebrating it in their own way, Piggy way. Friends and relatives coming back for Reunion Dinner. Me?? Came back in time to witness the grand fireworks of Xin Nian. Grand i would say. Again, CNY is not CNY until there's fireworks.

Well, i went to Chinese New Year Mass on the 1st day of Chinese New Year. Later, my cousins, aunties, uncles, come to my place to have breakfast. Just like old times. From the second day onwards, my friends and i visited our friends all over Kuching. As far as i can think about, it was tiring. haven had enough though i had live through 3 months of healthy lives in SOP, things just got ugly somehow. Put it into a positive way of thinking, it's not the end of anything, it's just the beginning.

My experiences of working is SOP is that i know lots of helpful people, generous people who taught me things about the plant, the culture there, how to have a descent meal with palm oil and everything about palm oil from A to Z. I just can forget about the memorable experiences i had obtained. Thanks to the 3 really good Engineer who had help me to understand more about "Live of Engineer in Palm Oil Mill". It's a complement, really. 3 months full of hardness, difficulties and lots and lots of opportunity and choices to make. i wonder why sometimes i couldn't make the best choices and cherish the golden opportunity.

Books Review. Yes, considering i was in the mill spending most of the time with the fruits. Besides Playing cards to kill time, I read one book almost every week. Here's the list and recommended books. Deception Point by Dan Brown; Digital Fortress by Dan Brown; The Knighs Templar by Steve Berry; Seven Deadly Wonders by Matthew Reily and not forgetting about Two readers digest for January and February.

Back here in Kuching. Nostalgic. The place where i was borned. Well, it's been a week plus i came back here and i have been doing lots of things to pampered myself replacing back the past 3 months.

Anyway, life have been away a little. Things eventually will turns out fine. I guess. God bless.

Cheers~!!!!
