The Tip of Borneo

May this year 2026, we went for a trip to The Tip of Borneo, also known as Simpang Mengayau. I had often heard about it but even though I am from Sabah I have never visited it, then my cousin Alex offered to drive us up to Kudat town from Kota Kinabalu about three hours journey, and at the same time to visit this place. It is the Northern Point of Borneo. It was hot and humid and the journey took quite a while to reach. It has some sort of Visitors centre and the walk after the car ride was a short distance until you see the beautiful view of the Northern Tip of Borneo. Totally worth the trip for us.

Thick Cloud over KLCC

It is now rainy season in Malaysia, it is the North East Monsoon period and here in Kuala Lumpur, in the morning it can be very sunny and hot, whereas in the afternoon the sky will gradually darkened and intermittent thunder can be heard before the rain falls. Some places in Kuala Lumpur will experienced flash flood after a heavy downpour, the good thing is, it's not so hot then, the water will subside but it's most inconvenient for people to go about their tasks.

I was at the KLCC having my breakfast in the food court today, as I looked out the window, I couldn"t help taking some pictures of the sky over KLCC, thick with heavy rolling clouds.

chinese Lunar New Year 2026

This is a late entry for the just passed Chinese New Year, February 2026. This year the celebration was great and we invited some friends over for lunch and, reunion. This year I baked and make my own Pineapple Tarts including the Pineapple Paste. Which is good as I can adjust the sweetness and texture accordingly. Usually every year I make like roll over but this year I went back to making an open pastry Pineapple Tarts, which is nice and beautiful to look at.

Unwind with friends, Josie

 During one of the long Public holidays in Malaysia, my sister Josie went on a trip to unwind with friends. Obviously, she's enjoying herself. This place that they gathered and visited was in Sabah somewhere overlooking the Crocker Range, at least it's visible if you look around when you're there. Elevation range up to 2.050 meters above sea level. Every time when I travelled home, it never ceased to amazed me. These mountains are awesome.

My Childhood Snacks

 I remember when we were younger, we only had a small variety of snacks that we used to buy and enjoyed it very much. I recalled with nostalgia certain biscuits that we will see when we go to the canteen and shops. These biscuits will take you down memory lane as I found a place in KLCC selling just that, it's on the 4th Floor and the Kiosk is call  'Childhood  Snacks'. It's kind of like the good old days are back again, but, for a fleeting seconds.
