Turquoise azure sea. Golden yellow hue horizon. Half seen through my eyes and half imagined through my mind. You don’t need a brilliant picture or subject:-)
Do you know the feeling of falling in love all over again? That’s how I felt when the plane was about to land when I visited Sabah some years ago. I didnt realise our country has such beautiful places . I fell in love with our country right then, all over again.

No, haven’t gone there. But I do plan on being back soon and bring family/friends with him, to share and breathe in the beauty of Sabah.

The sand was very soft, the wind was very, uhm, windy… Never did feel the afternoon-lounging part cos I was working but I’ll guess it was very loungy.
Hey, I haven’t been here on your blog for quite some time already. Suddenly the title caught my eyes….is that really you on the Sutera Harbour beach? This one place, my favourite spot I can never get tired of ! Spending almost every weekends there is such a bliss. I am proud to be a Sabahan.
» kak teh “Do you know the feeling of falling in love all over again?”
I do, actually.
More like I wanted to share this land with my greatest love and make that love something earthy and more grounded and at the same time floating on air like the dreams that come when you are, again that word, in love.
I had not been there two hours when I was already thinking, When can I come here again?
» Eudora
Hey, welcome back! I guess the title does say it all, no? So glad to have a Sabahan visiting my blog. I finally understood why you are so proud of your state… and always return to it. It’s beautiful. I know it’s utterly overused, but it’s true. Beautiful.
I so envy you, spending almost every weekend there. We should catch up there the next time I visit KK.

Sunrise. The photographer insisted that we headed down to the beach despite my complaints we were gonna get our feet wet, well, my feet wet, to which she replied, That’s THE point.
Kenny, if you look closely at bottom right of the photo, do you see two ‘cat’ eyes with a wide grin? Almost like cheetah/tiger or family of big cats? Gosshhh!!! Am i imagining things???
» Precious Pea
Har? Cat eyes pulak now? First aliens, then my colleague said she saw a monkey from the Planet of the Apes, and now cats? Cheetah/tiger some more… You flers very the imaginative lah…
» Tummythoz
Heh. Probably. Just the pic, no words (aside from the credit) this time. I’m kinda wandering from state to state across the country for work so it’s hard to get my head into a place where I can write.
And maybe I don’t want to. Sometimes it’s nice just to d-r-i-f-t. Yeah…

No wonder we have to stop by Earth to visit all the Women from Venus, then. Hehe.

Hehe, I do. Jemima says it’s Scar, by the way. You believe her ar?

Fast forward? Enjoy your YOUTH first, my boy. The money, travel and eating part can wait… For some of us (looks at myself), it never comes also.
Amazing how only you can achieve a wavy horizon. Is that what they mean by expanding one’s horizon?! You’ve fondly reminded me of my two sojourns to Sabah.
» jeff lee
My job? I give money to people. (Literally.) But don’t envy me — it’s very tiring. From East Malaysia back to West Malaysia, from South up to North now… I’m losing track of where I am, really…
kenny ah, my job here is even worse. i sit and collect people’s money, everyday, seven days a week. will trade with you any time..some times, it would be so nice to just feel completely lost somewhere…(like i do, when i let myself roam freely in your world of beautiful pictures and words..when i am not busy collecting people’s money that is..haha)…if only i could do it for real…sigh..
» Stephan
It’s like the Martika song from the 80’s… I feel the earth move under my feet… only in this case, it’s the oceans moving under my flippers… Blek!
i missed KK… brings back lots of happy, funny memories. like the 1st time i ever tried snorkelling and ermm.. almost drowned an ex-collegue of mine. okay, maybe he didn’t really ‘almost drowned’ but i pretty much hurt his most prized possession on his body. lol!!~~
i stayed at the sutera harbour the last time i was there too… really really wonderful. and the sunset is jst amazing… sighh…. *starts dreaming away…*

Haha, I nearly killed my friend who was teaching me skiing when I was at the Alps, so I guess that makes the two of us rather murderous comrades. I didn’t hurt his prized possessions the way you did though… Ho. Ho. Ho.

It’s not that, Kenny. We enjoy every word you write. Sometimes a single image says a lot also. They are all beautiful. Your words and pictures. Keep it up!!
you look as if you just walked right out of the ocean! =D
wow, it really is picturesque huh? i’ve never been there before. maybe somewhere in the future i will. really nice

Yeah, instead of getting a mermaid, the Sabahans got me instead! LOL

It’s one of the wonders of the world, and it’s part of the country I call home. Truly beautiful…

ahhh i’ve never been to borneo land before…
such a pretty place, so picturesque!
Turquoise azure sea. Golden yellow hue horizon. Half seen through my eyes and half imagined through my mind. You don’t need a brilliant picture or subject:-)
I remember the waters at Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park as crystal clear and so so so beautiful.
Did you go there?
hahah …. so pale. like the ocean.
had i been lying on the beach, i’d freaked out …. =P
just jokin.
What a dreamy, mythical-looking backdrop! Don’t blame you for looking like you just wandered into a dream!
the innocent & determined young lad looks like going somewhere far. those beginning big steps are encouraging indeed

The sand seems very soft on foot.
I almost can feel the wind blow in the picture
Lounging afternoon should like this tho..

Hey!!! Watch out!!! On your left side of the beach (bottom right side of pic) got an alien.. Can you see its eyes, brows, nose & mouth???

Jemina is right, that alien on the sand, is that faked? so scary..
Good Friday, lost in the island freaking out what to do next.
Take a plane back to modern KL !!!
» JENCOOKS
Fake lah, if real alien, I’ll be halfway to Mars by now! (Instead, I’m stuck in Port Dickson.)
Can’t wait to return to Modern KL, but I’m due to be in Not-So-Modern Sintok next…
real nice…..(covers all there is to say)
Was this sunset/sunrise? Gorgeous either way, of course.

Re your reply to Jencooks.. “if real alien, I’ll be halfway to Mars by now! “.. I thought that’s where you & all the other men are from.
Simba’s uncle is Scar.. Jeremy Irons pulak.
Stories from the city, we’ve heard.
Now, stories from from the sea we await.
I have no idea of the name cos me no fan of Lion King. But as long as you get what i meant
Sabah?
*jealous..
This is whyyyyy I need to fast-forward my life, you know.
Make money, and travel, travel, travel… and eat, eat, eat.
Stuck in home is plain boring.
Stuck in piles of assignment is ultra-boring.
geez.
hahaha dreamy like…
