June 2008: Tanjong Lobang Beach, Miri Sarawak

Me, mom and dad went to Bintulu (Sarawak) in June 2008. Actually it was my travel-for-work but my parents don’t want me to go by myself. Arriving around 10am, then at 2pm we were on our way back to Sibu (Sarawak, not Pulau Sibu and not even Cebu Phillipines). But at a junction with a signboard to Miri, my dad prompt a bonus question, “Anybody want to go Miri?” We’ll be there around 5pm , my mom replies, “Dont ask me, ask her” (pointing at me). Oik silap besar! Of course I said, “Let’s go!!!”. There we were, with no extra clothes, no brush and all necessary things! Sa-helai dan Sa-pinggang…
There are 2 roads leading to Miri, the old one (longer and takes more time) and the new one we refer to as ‘jalan pesisir’ which is faster than the other one. So dad used the new road so that next time if I were to travel by myself for work I wont get lost..
You can go by air, either using MAS, Airasia or Maswings (if youre from Borneo Island). Im not sure about travelling by sea, never heard of it..
On our way, my parents decided to go to Kuala Sibuti, I was raised here until 2 years old. I can’t remember anything about the place.

After 3hours, we arrived and went straight to a hotel. The Dynasty Hotel. For RM170+- we get a very good room. My dad, terus menyampaikan hajat yang dah lama terpendam.. iaitu, melabur amanah saham after a few ammonium-based ‘blasts’ at us. Located not far from the Pujut Highway, a few minutes drive to Shopping Complex and about 15 minutes to the Tanjong Lobang Beach.
We managed to go to the beach that evening to watch the sunset..

What can you expect to see in Miri?
In the city itself, of course Shopping Complex. Kalau aku, yang ni kurang minat la kot.. Sebab boleh jumpa kat mana-mana. Selain dari tu, Tg Lobang Beach. My fav spot is the jetty. Again.. Here you can see para-gliding.
Me hubby prefer exploring Miri. Go to Lutong, the oil town. You can see the old hospital site, or Petronas area. Or go to Pujut, find the biggest shopping complex in Miri (i think) the e-mart. Or go few miles further, to the Asian Bridge. The one that you have to cross if you want to go to Brunei.
Read another entry soon, about our (me n hubby) trip to Miri for honeymoon.

what's up?? i'm officially 9 months pregnant tomorrow, meanings i'll be down to the labor room anytime from now.. please pray for me & baby's health hopefully we'll do fine (the baby is busy kicking my right rib now, enjoying himself too much these days..*sigh adeh! i guess my ribs somehow looks like good punching/kicking bag to him, huh?). yes, 3 time ultrasound scan by 3 different doctor they all said its a boy. gender doesn't bother me, for my own reason boy seems great for me. but of course my husband is the most overjoyed person for baby boy. Still in my tummy but he started talking about playing soccer with my boy!

Pic blogging?

Dah lama la sangat tak post apa2. Bersawang dah blog. Sibuk dengan kerja, bila free tgk drama online, bila banyaaaak free buat bisnes photobook. Sekarang sibuk pulak dengan persediaan semester jun 2015 politeknik. Ada-ada je lah kerja untuk mempoyo n menyibukkan diri. Tu yg blog pun mcm rumah puaka tak de penghuni.. masuk keluar masuk keluar tak update apa2 pun... Jadi aku buat keputusan nak buat mcm micro-blogging.. tapi pakai gambar dan sedikit caption.. Ini dia gambar pertama. .............. Terkejut tadi tengok apa benda yg melekat kat cermin penumpang belah belakang kereta. Bila tgk dalam, rupanya anak aku punya kerja. Semalam dpt sticker, dia bantai lekat kat dlm kereta.. tergelak sorang bila teringat. Anak aku yg sorang je tu dah 4thn umurnya. Dah dihantar ke sekolah supaya dia ada kawan bermain.. maklumlah.. anak sorang.. belum ada rezeki anak lagi satu...

'cramp' lagi

tadi pagi 'cramp' lagi.. mungkin sebab lama sangat aku driving. ada traffic jam pulak di bandar Mukah hari ni.. Bandar Mukah ni takda traffic light. Bulatan pun ada 3 je. Dan jarang-jarang 'jam'. Ada program Sejiwa Senada ke apa ntah kat bandar Mukah mula hari ni sampai ahad ni. sebab tu orang penuuuuuhhh.. Yang ramai tu bukan orang Mukah ok.. semuanya dari seluruh sarawak.. pasal CM nak datang utk perasmian. risau dengan 'cramp' tu, lepas beli roti canai terus pecut balik rumah. Rehat sungguh2. Nak tidur tapi jantung aku ni berdebar2 kuat betul. Tu bukan berdebar2 namanya. Aku tak tau nak panggil apa. Tapi sampai tak boleh nak tidur! Kenapa ye?
