Goodbye land of no worries..

Three months just flies by like a blink of an eye somewhat and I'm heading back to worry central as we speak. Man, the classic "there no where like home" victim this time around. Always felt being away from home would be magical. The freedom, where there is a world of possibilities depending on what you want it to be. And after almost 4 yrs away now and got a whack on the head. Reality sits in and I'm gonna miss home big time. Irony really how I feel now. Company at Miri's good, I have no complaints to that. Just that, there no comfort I suppose. There's no sense of utter relaxation. Its gonna be all business soon. Man how I wish to be a retiree or a dude that struck lucky in the lottery. This is not living.

This 3 months home, I figured I've done a lot somehow. I didn't do anything that'll benefit my wallet but hey, I did things that feeds the soul. Deep ey? It was purely pointing to that fact. I came back and the 1st thing I did was change my lifestyle and no raised eyebrows please. I really did or I tried. I went out less and save heaps. I drink less too. You're proud of me ey? Mum and Dad if u read this, be proud!. Within this last 3 months I've meet a few new friends and you guys are awesome. You know who you are. Be proud! I'd name ya but that'll oversize ur egos. There must be a balance yaknow. Besides that, I've sent a very good friend off and I've spent a substantial amount of time with the family. All in all, a spiritually good summer holiday. Oh, I even made it up Mount Santubong as you all might know from my previous post. Awesome, really awesome.

Gonna miss home, miss buddies I wun be seeing anytime soon, miss my new found friends and old ones too. When reality sits in, I'm already missing the comforts of home.

Signing off.
Take care of yourself Kuching

Once there were many..

Had a flashback on the way home from the airport, had I windows down and was driving on the slow lane all the way home and got myself thinking about this one time about a year or so ago.. I remembered it was Edward's one time out late because he gets to sleep over at Carey's and we all went off to a night out. I don't really remember what we did actually besides we were boozing. Went to grab a bit at Siang Siang with Aaron, Carey and Edward then went Dota I think. And erm, after that went back to Carey's place all four of us, didn't had much to do and erm, I grabbed my laptop and we watched Goal 2 all night. Then in the morning, we had to do something, I didn't remember what. We were all in Aaron's car and during our journey out, we were fooling around as usual when suddenly there was this black image at the side of my eye and all of a sudden Aaron went "@#!@%$^#^#" den there was a thud on the front mirror. That black image I briefly saw was a bird and somehow, it flew directly at Aaron's car. It was like a suicide somewhat. It was gruesome to the point it left a crack on Aaron's front view mirror. The crack was on the inside. It was funny, the one and only time I've seen a bird striking a car head on. Great times man..

Now! Aaron just left for Brisbane, Edward's in Cardiff and Carey's in Manchester. Once there were many, now there are close to none. I'd be in Miri. Days like those are far and few now. Till the next time buddies. Take care of yourselves

Tribute to a Decade of Friendship

Ey dude its been years and this goes to you. Mainly because I love ya and also I ain't got nothing to write about today. Haha, We've been friends and buddies since primary 5 man. Been through everything imaginable together, from our daily routine raping (you fucking cunt! haha) to messing around with Asong. We even won our first Interschool Bowling League together dude. Haha, time flies with good company and you have been good company, through thick and thin. Ey, goodluck and all the best in Brisbane. Do well and I'll see you when I see you. Cheers mate. Stay in touch.

Sometimes you just don't know..

A tweak on the screws and it all changes.
A tweak on the screws all things rages.
Raged upon desired meanings
Raged towards unwanted happenings..

I'm having one of those days again where its a duty to blog today and I can't see what is there to write about and its demotivating sometimes cos I don't see myself as a good blogger. I could sum out 10 reasons which I'm gonna do after I finish whining and b*tching. Okay okay.. something is coming up, the lightbulb on my head is half lite now. Almost there.. Almost there.. And!

I guess not..

Why Mcdrunkie's A horrible blogger:

1. I don't own a Camera.. Its like a basic requirement somehow
2. I don't have a strong memory
3. I don't find the point in taking pictures of food.. Prolly shy
4. I don't follow up with what's going on in Kuching. Kuching's actually more happening that you think.
5. I contemplate on things too much to actually write it..
6. I have poor work ethics? I get lazy

Okay.. 10 was a real challenge.. I guess six would do. Haha..

Till next time PeePs..
Sorry about the Dry Post..

Happy Valentine's Day

This is the day that lovers cringe and loners fringe..
This is the day small things grows big and big things stay the same..
This is the day when two become one
This is the day when the old turns young and the young got younger..

Happy Valentine's Day People..
May you all have a good one..

What defines a Man..

Theo, if you're reading this, you're right dude.. After the pain and aches somewhat disappeared, I feel like the MAN. I made it.. to hell over 3000 feet above sea level and live to tell the tale..

Through treacherous hills I've climbed,
Through sharp thorny bushes I've surged,
Through ladders i conquered..
Up Mount Santubong I ventured..

The trip began like all trips begins with the sparkle of the sun on your face and a grin of utter excitement. With bags packed and laces laced, we ventured through a small entrance by the road side and began the climb.





Started with pace alike a pro, with Theo leading the way and within the 1st 10 minutes, I felt my lungs cringed and tighten up and there you go, hell has broke lose. A climb that would take 6-7hrs to and fro and all it took was 15 minutes to suck up all the juice I've packed up the night before at the dinner table.



By the time, I was practically huffing and puffing and in no time, I started my whine and dine and Theo and Roger, started their "look at Ian's face.." and "Ian you can do it *grin*".



Not like it actually helped but it did get me up there somehow. Speaking of Roger, he's like a monkey and I'm not shitting you. Seemed like its in his veins to yaknow skip through the roots and bushes with no effort whatsoever, I didn't see him break a sweat.



Kevin however's a shower-head, yaknow the one with puny puny holes in them and heck, he was sweating as fast as he's drinking like a direct entry and exit protocol. Man that guy could sweat. He'd sweat enough to keep an family alive.



Well looking at the brighter side of the story, the view on the way up and at the summit was awesome. Simply majestic. Words can't explain it, its like seeing another world and the view was partly my motivation up. When the going gets tough, you'd have to hold on to the little things. Somehow it worked. Met a few people on the way up, there was this group from West side of Malaysia, pretty friendly people and err, a group of 40 year old who probably whack my fat behinds time and time over, I kid you not they're one fit bunch of hags.

We managed to make it to the summit after 3hrs and 15minutes of hell which was a very good time on my count, around 15minutes ahead of the suggested time according to the signboards. Confidence was sky high until! We had to climb down..





This is where it all went wrong, Kevin fell of the ladder once and I tripped on roots and vines God knows how many times. The way down wasn't tiring on the breathing side but man does it strain you concentration and worst of all the thighs. The climb down ruined my Reebok shoes too, but its pretty insignificant.. I hate those shoes anyways.

On the way down, ladders was the scariest but not as hard as it seems. Some of the ladders are 2 stories or so high and a fall could buy you a ticket up to meet the boss. Well, made it through the ladders safe and sound, then come the rooted trail and this is no walk in the park either.




The trail down was steep, and toes-cracking steep and I fell, maybe 3-4 times. After about and 2hrs downhill, fatigue and impatience kicked in. Things started turning sour, pain was overwhelming. My knees were trembling by then and was about 2hrs from civilization. Water went out by then too and slowly from joint aches, I got a headache. Dehydrated which packed in the misery.


The worst thing of this all is that the view that motivated me on the way up, turn its back on and me and whack me in the head. On the way down, the view looked so high. Every glimpse look as though, you haven made any progress. It always looked so far from the finish line. I was slowing everyone down and those guys really did me some good with their motivation.



Then all of a sudden, I see this. My little piece of heaven. Somehow or rather, I made it. I MADE IT! Wanted to signify the momentous occasion but I could bend my knees to kiss the ground but when its all said and done, I conquered Mount Santubong and IN YOUR FACE if you think a fat man can't do it. Cos I did~ =D

Till next time people,
Chaos the maos (I had to use it Carey)

Painful~.. Sakitlaa.. sigh

sOrry Peeps.. wun be able to blog for the next couple of days.. In too much pain to get my ass to the computer without breaking a sweat.. The after effects of the Mount Santubong Expo is as close to hell as I've ever been through but the good side of it all, the next post wud be filled with depressing and painful pictures of me on the way up, all wet and sweaty.. the way you like it ey? Well.. till then, this is like a trailer/preview to what is to come.. haha..

cheerios..

The Sun reads my blog!

Since my last entry, we've been having sunshine!
Two days straight of sweet and healthy sunshine and its awesome!

It's been awhile..

Where is the sun? where?!

Its raining, its pouring..
I've stayed home and its boring..

I can't believe I'd actually miss the sun.. I'm an anti-sun person but it's been too long. Oh neglected love of mine, where have you gone to? Its been pouring everyday and it goes on from the early hrs of the night till the evening and with luck, they'd be a few short intermission but the sun's too snobbish to show his face.. The weather's getting to me, its been too cold.. I had to wear house slippers now.. My ankle's been acting up due to the weather too.. Cramps and aches.. The rain's raising prices of vegetable and fishies too, went to the market for chillies moments ago, and I couldn't find any! Wanted to cook lunch today.. Guess its gonna be another day of take-outs..

Went to the bowling alley yesterday, had a lil chat with Shane.. Its odd yaknow, like the bowling alley nowadays is overly gloomy and quiet.. No more youth players running about like during my days.. No more people playing for fun.. Its gloomy.. Back in the days, lanes are always packed with friends competing.. Competitions to qualify for.. Now, the sign boards are bare.. No more leagues and master competitions.. Its jst so different.. Shane mentioned, my batch of bowlers.. are extinct.. practically everyone stopped playing.. such a shame really.. Guess there isn't no future for Sarawak Bowling after all..

Memories.. man i love that place..

When you don't get enough sleep, you......

When you don't get enough sleep, you'd probably nosedive into the gutter on the way home.. but not me! Went out with a few friends yesterday with 3 hrs of sleep in the belt and I made it to tell the tale! It was a struggle, which got better after the electric shock on the feet and the comfort of the massage machine later, courtesy of the evil one..

Went Sharon's place yesterday, finally I succeeded in keeping my word! The food at her place is.. different~.. I've been to my fair share of houses, my tummy is living proof and I haven eaten cuttlefish, preserved mangoes and odd looking nuts (i forgotten what they were called). So, while she was getting ready, I was looting my oredi very full tummy. I arrived a handsome, fit looking dude and left a 4 months pregnant lady. Then off to Pick and Pack.. Then to Spring for Sharon and Aneeqa's interview where mcdrunkie met his match and fell in Love.. Starbucks!

Its been too long, stupid economy crisis and recession brought us apart.. But finally, I ate her up so quick, sha hardly finished half of her dog when i'm done with coffee.. (avoid yellow mindedness pls)

We then went off to Ostrich and then Kate's place for more munchies, and then back to Sha's place, then sent Kate home then went home and died.. =D! This concludes visiting for 2009 CNY! It has been fun, my tummy has been growing, may you all have a blessed year ahead..

Mcdrunkie, signing off =)~
