Albany Trip AGAIN!!!! 

This is the first time I went down to Albany, THIS YEAR. Along with the 3 times last year and the 2 times the year before. Most of the trips was with my friends. I was automatically become the main driver of the trip. Not that I enjoy driving, its just that I had enough experience to drive long hours, e.g. ignoring the tears and prepare my own chocolate coated coffee beans.

I enjoy however, driving at night. Not that I am BIN TAI and I aware of the danger to drive at night outback. But imagine when you stopped at a 100% darkness road with no lights on, and the only light source are from the stars. Thats the most beatiful thing you can see.

BUT, this time we depart are DAY time. Luckily we were taking turns to drive throughout the journey this time. Supposingly anyway. I choose my favorite route. From Perth all the way through Albany highway to Albany. This took us about 4 hours+. We then visited the must go Whale House, blow holes, natural bridge, the gaps and the wind mill farm.



The next day we went to Denmark, Walpole, the Tree top walk and then stopped at Pemberton for the valley of Giants. After that we were heading to Augusta via the super straight highway. We stayed there are a night and went to the light house the next morning. Oh we did have chinese food for the nights.
After the light house, we skipped almost everything and drove straight back to Perth along the courseway as all of us visited Magaret River numorous time.

As ppl says, Perth is a boring place. Going down south is one of the few ways to spend your holiday. Next time I might reverse my favorite route to make my driving more interesting.

Me, myself and I 

Come across this Astrology Horoscopes. I think its described me well enough for all of you to know me. hehe.. and the most important thing is, I don't need to repeatingly type it out to strangers for them to get to know me. So here it is. If you are interested for your own Astrology Horoscopes, find out more here .

General personality
Born under the sign of Aquarius, you are independent and progressive. Your individualistic nature could express itself in the form of a rather special and somewhat different lifestyle. Although you can relate to all kinds of people regardless of their life direction or interests, you are not likely to be influenced into following in their footsteps. You have the ability to detach yourself and view the world from outside. A rebel by nature, you find rules and tradition especially uncomfortable since they tend to restrict your original imagination. Basically kind and eager to help, you have the happy knack of knowing when it is needed, and you give it freely without ulterior motives.
You are very emotional, and highly sensitive to every passing problem, even if it isn't directly related to you. Your compassion can actually get out of hand if you're not careful, and give you difficulties in coming to terms with reality, harsh as can be sometimes. Try not to carry the world's problems on your shoulders. Your emotions can sometimes be so powerful as to hamper your intellect and your ability to reason. This makes for behaviour that seems inexplicable to many people, since what you say at one time might be very different the next, depending on your emotional state when you say it.

Although you want to act when the urge moves you, it isn't always easy for you to do so without some apprehension. You are more defensive than offensive, and usually recoil rather than take decisive action to defend yourself when attacked. You tend to burn physical energy unevenly, and can overdo things when under pressure. Tension and inability to relax can result.

A conjunction of the Sun and Venus shows a more cheerful and optimistic person than your chart may otherwise foretell. There is receptivity to fun and social events. The physical appearance is enhanced, although this can bring some narcissist tendencies as a side effect. You have a strong inner need for popularity, and you sincerely want people to like you. You are a good listener, and you truly enjoy most of the people with whom you associate. In any sign, this aspect allows you to be more easygoing, and less competitive and combative.

A negative aspect formed between the Sun and Uranus shows that you are impulsive and unpredictable. You go your own way and do your own thing without much concern about what others think. You are original, but sometimes impractical. You like to do what you want, when you want. Nervous and accident prone, you may sometimes think you have a dark cloud following you. Your periodic unwillingness to follow rules may hamper your progress. With maturity, your views may remain eccentric and liberal, but they become more broadly based and humanitarian.

A positive aspect formed between the Sun and Neptune shows that you have precocious qualities. It allows you quickly to absorb ideas and concepts with deep comprehension. You have fine talents in expression, and you take up new projects with enthusiasm. Yet you are likely to become easily bored. This may have been a problem that caused you to have a difficult time in school when the subject matter was something that you already knew. You have strong psychic abilities, and much of your strength is in your intuitive grasp of matters. You are permissive with others, and with yourself. You may not be a hard pusher for one of your shortcomings may be that you dawdle a bit. You function well when allowed to operate at your pace and without others relying on you too much.

A positive aspect between the Sun in your chart and Pluto gives you a highly evolved power of concentration and will. You have a way of mobilizing your talents to reach your goals. You have many leadership abilities, but you may not be so interested in leadership. You focus instead on your personal agenda. You often display an attitude of righteous indignation toward those who bend the truth and take advantage of others. You are an extremely perceptive person. There is much investigative skill associated with this aspect, and your insight in human motivations can serve you well in fields of behavior sciences. You may not always agree with people, but you understand them very well.




Mentality & communication
You have a sharp intellect and an objective mind, and the ability to find original solutions to problems. You are not afraid to assert yourself when you know you are right, and willing to admit it when you are wrong. People are usually receptive to you because you don't establish any rules to which they must adhere. Human variety fascinates you, you enjoy conversations with all kinds of people, and you rarely condemn anyone, no matter what his or her status might be. You tend to be stubborn though, and probably have fixed opinions that only the most convincing arguments and substantial evidence can change.



Love, marriage & social relations
You have dynamic powers of attraction and an individual way of expressing affection, but it is not very easy for you to relate to people on a very intimate level. You tend to be more of a friend than a lover, and you need good intellectual rapport with your partner more than most other people. Unusual things stimulate your interest, and you seek the company of people who are different from the average person. It is also essential for you to be permitted complete freedom of mobility, as you can easily blame others for restricting your development. On the other hand you respect people's right to be themselves as well.
A positive aspect formed between Venus and Jupiter shows that inner poise enables you to view people and circumstances with optimism. Negative elements don't disturb you much because you're so sure everything will turn out right. It's hard to be depressed around you. It's rare for you to share your difficulties with anyone, preferring to work them out on your own, with little or no fanfare. You have an outstanding talent for handling people, and you will no doubt succeed in fields where this can be put to use. Your sense of ethics and social decorum is also strong as you strive to be your best. You reach out to people with sincerity and honesty. Vulgar and ill-mannered individuals really turn you off.

A negative aspect formed between Venus and Saturn shows difficulties in relationships. Because of this, you can be left out of the mainstream of social life sometimes. You have a melancholy disposition resulting in a shyness, or a formal and stiff manner of presenting yourself. You find it hard to meet people half way, perhaps because you fear rejection. A defensive attitude must be overcome. You have such a high degree of tension and anxiety that is hard for you to relax.




Other traits
Many different subjects interest you, since you have a boldly versatile streak which need full expression. As a result you could find it difficult to sort out your priorities and direction in life. You have intellectual flair and ability, and a happy, basically optimistic temperament. Restlessness can be a problem at times, but bright repartee and a sense of humour should be in evidence.
You have a need for everything that is of high quality, and a perfectionist attitude, as well as a liking for ceremony. Thoroughness in work, ambition and determination are present in considerable force, and a kind of noble regalty colour your opinions and attitude towards life. You tend to be conventional, and conform to the standards of your own generation. You are able to carry responsibility, and powers of leadership could well emerge, as well as a hint of pomposity.

A positive aspect between Jupiter and Saturn shows serious purpose to your life which may have been influenced by a family tradition. Although you are somewhat materialistic and desire the finer things in life, you lack the motivation and drive to attain them. There is a tendency to seek and find easy ways of doing everything. Whatever success you are to achieve is apt to come in the latter part of your life. You have a bad habit of comparing yourself unfavorable to others rather than realizing your own self-worth.

Sandakan Trip After 16 years 

While I was in KK late last year. I finally mange to fulfill one of the 2 wishes of travel in Malaysia. Thats to go back to Sandakan, East Course of Sabah. ( Here are some of the photos)
For those who don't know me, I did spent 4 years back to primary school days there. I visited my primary school first (SRJK(C) Chi Hwa), revisited 2 of the very obviuos landmarks of the school, the helicopter playground and the old temple.

I also been to the town, visited my kmum's super delicous chicken rice restaurant (I am sure my kmum won't read my blog but hey.. its really really nice).

I then drove around the highway and went back to the old house I stayed next to the Power Generator in Batu Sapi. Surprisingly the house was not that bigger then my memory. I visited Sepilok, the home of Oran Utan. We then had a dinner at a friend's restaurant.

We pretty much do nothing the second day in Sandakan as it was raining so I just drove around again. To get familiar myself and hoping that I can refresh more of my memory. Sadly I didn't meet any of my old friends.

The trip ended with good new and old memories. New buildings are built with 'no sign' of renovating or refresh the old building along the course way. Which is a sad thing as most of my childhood memories belongs to the older side of the town. Oh btw, another travel wishes of mine, is to climb Mt Kinabalu. :P
