Why do they call it white water rafting when the water is brown and not white?
Back in Malaysia I went white water rafting with Bronson and his friends who came down from Kuala Lumpur. We woke up at 5 to catch the 7am bus to Beaufort which is a 2 hour drive from the city.
During the car ride our guide (Andre) told us "you must be fast when you get on the train otherwise no seat". He wasn't kidding about being fast and 'no seat' cause the train was old school. There were so many people wanting to get on the train that they would climb through the windows to get a free seat. You don't have to buy a ticket but boy, you gotta fight for a seat! MOH got a seat doing it the Sabah way, (climb through a window and throw your bag on the seat before the old lady gets it from the other window.
The train ride itself was a mission! The train would move oh-so slowly from one kampung train station to the next (the whole freaking ride would take an hour an half before we reached the river). Not even halfway through the journey some pipe broke between the trains wheels and we got stuck for 2 hours! when help finally arrived instead of pushing us forward the brought the train back to the station. I really thought we were not going to make our trip this time but the guides came through and rented a super fast train with air condition in it! Hallelujah!
There are two types of white water rafting in Kota Kinabalu. I decided to bring Bronson and his friends to the harder one (ho ho ho) so I brought them to Padas River. It was wild! Water in my face, mouth, ears, nose. Mucus dripping down and I think I drank most of the river while bulldozing through the waves with our dinghy rafts. MOH feels that they should label white water rafting as an extreme sport.
It's quite a tiring activity cause you have grown men complaining that their arms ache after paddling through a couple of waves. The guides even let you jump down into the raging water for some body surf. I loved it, but the rest of the crew were pretty bummed out after the first jump so only me and Bronson were swallowing murky river water 3 times while trying to body surf (drowning) in the river.
Pictures of us in action will be posted up as soon as I get my ass to a scanner.

I still feel like having turkey
Since I am still in the holiday mood I shall post photos from my Christmas and New Year's events.
We did the usual Church going, eat fancy dinner with relatives and giving of presents the Christmas tree things.
Then it was the family singing competition which was won by my aunty and here baloon wearing friends. we got second place, which is not bad considering we only practised once in the afternoon. Well okla TWICE!
As usual we had our annual family Christmas gathering but this time it was held in Celyn resort which was up in the mountains. This is where the Chrsitmas spirit really shined through. I mean the true meaning of Christmas is about winning and losing right? For the past five years my family has won the dancing competition but sadly we lose and the honour goes too my aunty and her big breasted (fake tities enhanced by baloons) friends. It was a sad night. but fear not we will BOUNCE back from this and win next year! Sigh, we got third place if any of you were wondering.
Eugenie came all the way down from KL to join in the festivities. She wasn't feeling too well but she was such a good sport! Thanks Eugenie.
I didn't take alot of photos cause I was so busy taking videos of everyone having fun. The photos that I did take are pretty low quality (as you can see) which were taken with the videocam.
From the mountains we rushed back to my aunt's place to usher in the New Year.
while we were outside the house, merry making, the occupants inside the house were blissfully asleep.
For the first day of New Year we went to Pulau Tiga!
Boy is all excited and ready to go!
The resort in Pulau tiga was lovely and were expecting it to be really really humid but we had frequent rain showers which cooled the island. What does one do in Pulau Tiga?
Fishing!
That's one big ass fish they caught.
Besides fishihng one must go to the MUD VOLCANO POOL in Pulau Tiga.
On the way to the pool Bex got stuck. I was laughing myself silly before I struggled to help him.
It's really icky when you first jump,slide,crawl in. You can't really touch the bottom but sometimes as your waddling in the mud you can feel things under your feet. I really don't want to know what it is.
Funny story:
We were all chatting gaily away when suddenlly right beside my father a bubble came out and we were like "eew!!!" (faster move away from him!)
dad: It wasn't me! I didn't fart!@
Everybody: -_-
Dad: Honest! Wow!!!
(this is where he gets lifted up by this gigantic bubble and the spot where he sat starts bubbling!)
I have never seen people try to scramble out so fast in my life. But then my mother hero so she just stayed there and well started creeping back in.
This is a classic pose!

When it hurts too much,
When you forget how it feels to be in love,
When you need peace,
When you need nothing but want everything,
When you don't love yourself,
