ReD CliFt oR ReD CliFF??

Before i go to watch the movie...... dear ask me about the story of The Three Kingdom...... but i can't really answer her...
although i read the book and play the game......'Paiseh!!'
Then wait for the movie to give you the answer lo....coz malas nak baca balik!!

Red cliff is a movie about China’s ancient war happened during the Three Kingdoms era in ancient China. I know very little about the battle of red cliff and the movie really surprised me with the star casts (my favorite Tony Leong and Takeshi Kaneshiro) and the awesome battle scenes....
Besides, i also like the numerous brilliant tactics of warfare that appeared onscreen. Quite enjoy to watch this movie and i am going to catch the next part of the movie....
On the same day night, went to dinner with secondary school old friends....
Another memory recall moment that we talk about life in secondary school..... gossip about other friends....and so on......
Time flies....many things were change....
those that were fleshy has shrink in size,
those that were lanky has grow in flesh......
Anyway, happy to meet them.......

Notice: NeW WiDgeT---ReCeNt PoSt

As suggested by dear.......
"I think you should add a 'recent blog' widget in your blog !!"
Yes......
I admit that it is my fault to update my post not according to date......
I used to post my blog randomly (which means post an 'outdated' blog sometime)
As all of us know, the order of post will arrange according to the date where the latest one will appear at the top of the page......
Therefore, here is the new widget in my blog (as you can find it in the right column) to show my actual 'latest' entry......

DiNneR wiTH MARDI TrAiNeEs At KL ToWeR

As the chinese proverb goes: 天下没有不散的延席
I like the meaning of this proverb but i hate the feeling....
Although we know each other just for a few weeks......
but we share the happiness together when we work in the lab......
'We' refer to me and the group of industrial training students from different universities (UM, USM and UNIMAS)......
This is their last week working in my lab and will go back to their own uni to continue studies in the new semester soon......
So, we have a farewell dinner at Sri Angkasa Revolving Restaurant, Kuala Lumpur Tower
Actually, this is my second visit here...
And revisiting the restaurant spurred me to recollect all my memories....
which happened last year November......My birthday...
So sweet, touch and unforgetable...... Same food (not so nice!!), same place (nice view) but different people and different mood......
It was totally different mood and feeling when going out with different people.....
especially eating with a group of people.....
The most spectacular view from the tower......
the night scene of KL around KLCC
To all trainees....
Wish you all the best and good luck in your future undertaking!!
And thank you, boss....for the treat!!

神奇的神山之旅-神灵的故居

京那巴鲁山,高度4095.2公尺,有称寡妇山。
何谓寡妇山?
相传在古代,两位在广东外海捕鱼的中国兄弟,不慎遇到台风而漂流至沙巴。他们在当地落地生根,并娶了当地的土著为妻和生子。无奈兄弟俩都很怀念故乡,便协议哥哥先回故乡探亲。怎知哥哥却一去不回,大嫂便每天都站在山上翘首盼望着南中国海,希望能看到丈夫的回来。她风雨不改,直到老死。后人为了纪念这伟大的爱情故事,便把此山命名为‘中国寡妇山’。
京那巴鲁源自卡达山杜顺族的语音‘AkiNabalu’,Aki原意为祖先;对于卡达山杜顺族来说,这座山是他们祖先神圣灵魂的居所。
。。。京那巴鲁山高耸入云,身临其境如梦如幻。。。我的渺小是因为我踩了很多脚印,才来到这里。
他的伟大,是因为不动声色就把握征服。
风蚀的大地,是岁月的伤痕,还是生命的轨迹。
想保持欣赏美的能耐,就必须维持情形的脑袋,所以走山路要慢慢来。
南峰的柔美线条,罗氏峰的刚毅庄严,
刚与柔的对比画面,在空气稀薄的高处相呼应。
如果等待是寡妇山的传说,我相信爱情该有这份执著。
披上一层薄雾,让这看似异域的大地多了一份诡异

我总认为云雾室高山所不能或缺的陪衬,
只是这样一层如薄纱般的披在大地上,
整个气氛顿时变得柔情万千
神山回来,一切都被我轻描淡写的带过,
仿佛这趟神山之旅是个简单的任务;
其实回想起来,那过程其实一点都不简单。

神奇的神山之旅-生命的奥妙

京那巴鲁国家公园不单单是一座神山;
它还有茂密的原始森林及珍贵的自然资源环境;
这里可以说是一座古老的植物园。
走着走着。。。体验周围环境的改变。。。
从热带低地到雨林丘陵,
到热带雨林,再到高海拔灌木丛。。。
幕幕都令我深刻难忘。。
京那巴鲁山。。。真是一座拥有“生命”的山。。。
短短几小时车程,既可以离开钢筋构筑的喧器城区,饱览它未经任何雕琢的天生丽质,让生命中缠绕不断的烦恼在绿色世界里随风而去。

顽强的生命自然会有适应环境及求生的能力

大大小小的寄生植物为这片森林增添了不少生命的气息。 颜色鲜艳的菌类勇敢的在这片森林霸占自己的地盘。 虽然身上长满寄身物,十分负担,但生命也相对的精彩。奇奇怪怪的植物为我们的旅程增添了不少乐趣毛茸茸的绿色植物好像就要化身为活生生的毛毛虫奇形怪状的藻类植物让我体验到上帝的创造能力

这座生态特殊的高山公园不但是广大大自然爱好者探索原始森林奥秘的天堂,也是这里发掘前所未见,充满生命里的新生物的乐园,非常值得停下脚步来欣赏。公园内的森林就像神山低地山林的浓缩体。林林总总、造型各异的树木会教人目不暇给,巴不得把它们都全收入眼帘内。
走在海拔两千公尺的高度,是一片丰茂的苔藓雨林 品尝细微的美,需要弯下身腰,放下身段;在疲惫的脚步里找寻微不足道的生命美感 大自然里的图腾,是岁月镀造的艺术品像海底微生物般的五颜六色小植物是上神山路上最令我惊喜的发现 这些原本不起眼的植物,零散的堆积起神山的自然色彩 秀色美景近在咫尺,放眼即览,伸手可及

挂在树上的白色植物,对我来说是稀奇的;
但对于当地人来说,这是山上随处可见的生物。
稀奇,我想应该也是因人而异的吧!
一棵棵高耸入云的树儿争相展示千奇百怪的独特造型,各有各的精彩,谁也抢不了谁的光
雾起,我看不见远方,
却发现树影的曲线像人生,迂回曲折。
我站在雾里边,原来,美是那么的简单!
当面对着瞬间多变的情景,唯一的方式就是一直注视住云雾的变化
浓浓的雾气简化了杂乱的背景,为我们呈现出线条扭曲不规则的树枝美感
长在海拔三千公尺的石头上,生命除了顽强,还要懂得珍惜。

神奇的神山之旅-愉快的旅程(III)

2008年6月29日
凌晨十二点半,一直睡不好的我被滴滴答答的雨声吵醒。“不是吧!竟然在这时候下雨,那我们还爬得成吗?希望这场雨赶快结束!”
凌晨两点十五分,大伙儿起身准备上山。尽管身躯十分疲惫,睡意十足,但还是被逼起床。
谢天谢地,刚才的雨终于停了,但外面的气温非常低。
大家都穿了几层的长袖寒衣,套上手套及戴上头灯。大约两点半,大家已经在Gunting Lagadan Hut后门集合。人齐后,领队便带着我们摸黑出发。周围的环境漆黑一片,伸手不见五指,惟有靠头灯照亮前方的路。上山的首部分是一段梯级,潮湿的表面让大家步步为营。由于登山的人数众多,大家只能一个接一个的爬上阶梯,进度还蛮慢的。漫长的梯级后,迎接我们的是花岗石路和一条白色绳索。沿途攀爬峭壁可说是我这生中最大胆的尝试,因为当时的情况真的是一失足就会成千古恨!为了安全起见,我们跟着领队的指示轮流上山。大家紧握绳索,脚踩着倾斜的山路往上爬。在一片漆黑的情况下,我们只能集中精神不停地攀爬。

不久,我们到达Sayap-sayap Hut(京那巴鲁山最高及最后的休息站),站里的管理员忙着记录攀山者的名字。眼见距离山峰还有一点五公里,小休片刻后,我们继续上山。爬山的当儿,我不时抬头遥望,看见远处登山客头灯发出的光形成一排排的灯火闪烁移动着,一个接着一个,画面非常壮观。稀薄的氧气让人呼吸困难,体力也开始下降,也使我越走越慢。
最终我们还是完成了最后的路程,成功踏上神山之巅-罗氏峰(Low’s Peak)。登顶的喜悦简直无法形容,大家兴奋地拿起相机四处拍照。顶峰告示牌更是大家争相合照的据点。站在顶峰放眼遥望,看见远处的云朵始出现橙黄色的曙光,四周的景物也越来越清晰。当太阳破晓的时候,所有山峰像被泼了金黄漆,闪闪发亮。我想这应该是所有登山客毕生难忘的景观吧!
站在东南亚第一峰上,感觉自己好像君临天下,因为视野辽阔,一望无际!从那里还可以清楚看到圣约翰峰(Saint John’s Peak)及维多利亚峰(Victoria Peak)。由于上来顶峰人数越来越多,我们只好离开罗氏峰准备下山。回程中,我看到了我们凌晨登山所错过的壮丽风景如南峰(South Peak)。它虽不是最高点,但奇特的尖耸山峰已让它成为京那巴鲁山的像征。回到住宿的时候已不早了,匆匆地收拾行李及赶快回到Laban Rata吃早餐。我们于十一点半启程下山。才刚走了一小段路,天空又开始下雨。穿上雨衣后我们连跑带跳地快速下山。雨越下越大,沿途山路也囤积了一滩滩的水,弄得红土路烂兮兮的。但我们还是畅快地在雨中奔驰,希望赶快到达山下。大约距离Timpohon入口处还有两公里,我们的脚步也逐渐放缓,雨势也慢慢变小。随着标示牌的公里越来越少,距离Timpohon入口处越来越近,我们的心情也越来越轻松及兴奋。还没到入口处前,我们途经一个小飞瀑(Carson Fall)。最后再爬上一段梯级,终于抵达入口处。在路口处等了大约一个半小时,才等到司机来载我们回到京那巴鲁公园边享用午餐边等其他团员下山。大约五点半左右,其他团员才陆续的到达。随后我们就告别京那巴鲁公园,回到京那巴鲁市。。。
Carson 小飞瀑
刚被雨淋湿的我,十分狼狈!
大约两小时的车程,我们回到了市区。第一件事情当然是把行李搬上宿舍,然后痛痛快快地洗澡。。。(因为我们实在太肮脏了)
一切整顿完毕后,当然是填饱肚子的时候啦!走路到附近的海鲜餐馆享用沙巴州闻名的海鲜大餐。
“千万别问我海鲜大餐好不好吃,因为。。。”
一:我并不是喜欢吃海鲜的人。
二:当时的我十分饥饿,所以对食物的要求不高。
海鲜大餐后,个个都回到宿舍。。。早早就见周公咯!!
“好怀念早上抵达山峰的感觉哦。。。”

2008年6月30日
今天是最后一天逗留在沙巴,所以大家都把握机会瞎拼及购买手信。吃完早餐后,走路到附近的Filipino Market买土产。

一档档的档口排满了琳琅满目的货物如珍珠饰品,木制雕饰或钥匙圈,贝壳,手工包包,当地小食
等等。
在集市逛了几圈后,就坐下来享用当地盛产的椰子。
在这么热的天气当然最适合喝椰子水来消消暑。。。



回去宿舍的途中,我们经过海边及码头。。。。美丽的景观顿时让我想起沙巴州不只是一个爬山胜地,它也是一个非常有名的海边度假或潜水胜地。收拾好行李后,我们终于来到了最后一站。。。First Beach Tanjung Aru沙滩
在那里拍了些照片,走一走沙滩,欣赏日落及等待晚餐的到来。。。













一班美女团友的合照
当然少不了俊男咯!!哈!哈!
晚上十点半,我们踏上飞机准备回到吉隆坡。。。
再见了,沙巴!我们后会有期。。。
