Reagan's weekend in Sook

Around 7 am, me and my cousin Stepheny started driving into the interiors of Sook, off of Keningau. To our surprise, there was this small house in the middle of nowhere that has a 'Fairlady' car in its parking lot.

the only 'new' building that I saw in Sook... I think we need more of these clinics here kan?

We got freaked out by the flooded rivers in Sook, takut buaya bah...most of the areas there were flooded, should have taken more pics of the flooded oil palm estates, bikin takut!

Randomly taken, a few contractors were installing electrical cables along the gravel road.

Some of the locals

More flood pics.

we were hungry, me and steph went to Sook's sunday market, the locals call it 'tamu'. I was hoping to find some 'exotic' food, but not much luck, most of the people selling stuff are from the other parts of the district, Nabawan and Keningau. So I didnt really find any weird cuisines.

Tiger pun ada kena jual..hmm.


Pegalan bridge...Taken by Stepheny Wong. Nice one.

The aftermath...muddy viva.

I even lost my plate number, probably in the flood... have to get a new one soon.
After Sook, this is what we did... ABC!

My assistant being the 'tikus putih' for the new recipe.

ABC... plus OREO... very nice man...

ingredients for the ABC...

Mommy found an egg in the chicken that was our lunch, the egg has not came out from the chicken yet... sudah kena ngap!

Before going back to Kota Kinabalu, a hair cut first, in a very unusual saloon cum tailor cum wedding planner...jual kredit cell phone pun ada, and all the hair dressers are 'Bakla'...

what do you wanna be when you grow up?

My dad is a dentist.
I'm gonna grow up just like him.

My mom is a lawyer.
I wanna be a lawyer too.

My uncle owns a pub.
I'm going to be just like him.

I saw my big brother hit his classmates in the face.
I wish I can be as strong as him.

My dad smokes cigarettes, it's good for stress he said.
soon when I'm stressed, I'll know exactly what to do!

My cousin Roy sleeps with any girl she likes.
I wanna be just as cool as him.

My dad hits mommy when she doesn't clean the house.
Now I know what to do to my wife when I want things done.




Mommy drinks from the smelly bottle when she's sad.
Maybe I should too.

When you grow up, will your kids be just like you?

Koko! Gigi saya kana cabut...Sakit!







Keeping Me Safe, Babagon, St.Peter & St.Paul







Dawn breaks, already these ladies:Anne, Amy,and Evelyn are on their way to the village chapel, crossing the wobbly suspended bridge while scratching their mosquito bitten skin. Muddy paths, steep hills, I salute you ladies, and the view is worse at night time. The chapel was a good 15 minutes walk from their homestay, probably 20-30 minutes in the rain..


Nothing I can describe about the sceneries here, just the normal fallen piece of
heaven on earth. The morning mist, the river, the hills,
the buffaloes, the people, not to mention the riped fruits that are everywhere, I had a taste of Babagon's own pineapple, man those things are good. Babagon is one of those forgotten camping spots, that no one wants to mention anymore, paradise right on our own backyard. I sure hope people will forget about this place, so that I can have it all to myself, hehe.

Anne, Amy and Evelyn are those ordinary individuals who are doing extraordinary things for others. In this case, the young generation of Babagon, the three of them came to teach the kids
in this part of Penampang about "keeping me safe".


I won't go into details about this Camp that The Good Shepherd Sisters are organizing, for that you need to find out yourselves thru anne, look her up in facebook, its very easy. Or you can always drop by at the Youth Prep Centre, in Alamesra, the centre is just below the Sabah
Credit Corporation office. There you can get all the infos you need.


What I can say about these events: most of the participants will not go home empty handed, or how the kadazan saying "balik rumah barait penuh" with the same meaning. Barait or in some parts of Sabah Kadazans call Wakid are 'backpacks' made of fine woven rattan. abit of cultural info for you guys, just in case.


The generation of today are developing fast, whether if it towards positivity or negativity, thats another story, Truth is, our younger bros and sis are being fed with information that most of the time are misleading.
Dangerous informations that can turn their lives upside down.. Like it or not, today, it's okay to have sex before getting married, today it's okay to have abortions done. Today, raping children is 'normal'...

I hope those statement disturbed you. If they did, do something...


The kids playing some of their games...

Bled the book has escaped

see,
that i have bleed,
see that i mourn for him.
now my faith dwindle,
for u thought it was simple.
me and blasphemy, are symphony
a melody that listen to tragedy.

look,
as my words written for witnesses
reads in curiosity and burn in activity
in friction that cause addiction.
activity that needs to be stopped by intercessory
fertility demography and multiplicity.
read my potty red frigidity lips

read on, read on.
activities we do to escape reality.
pick up a book and gone
we are away for the moment.
close come back oh no gone
again it was just a second.
