Just another weekend...

Last Friday, 9pm - went to Titanium Dance Club in Damansara to give support to Gluteus Maximus, a 5-piece Sabahan band who is down to compete in the Qualifying Heat-1 of GBOB (Malaysia).


Found out about this GBOB thingy from a friend of mine, Kay Kastum Jr, which he himself is the lead singer for the band. Altogether there were 13 bands competing in Heat-1 in GBOB(Malaysia) and only 3 will advance to the national Grand Final.


Gluteus Maximus in action


eSteady ko Kay..!!

The newly formed Gluteus Maximus gave a remarkable performance that night but unfortunately they didn’t make it to the Final. Better luck next time dude..


Gluteus Maximus...featuring me (at the back) hehehe


Afundi Gluteus Maximus..send to 32999


Some of the ladies..Buli ba kalau kau!!


One of the three group that advances to the Final

Ok, continue.. left Titanium around 1am and proceed to the infamous ‘tulun tokou’ karaoke pub somewhere in Setapak, KL where we spend the rest of the night at. Sing, drink & dance..we went back home around 3.30am. Oh ya, ‘survived’ a roadblock on the way back home..pheww!


At the infamous 'tulun tokou' karaoke pub hehehe..

Saturday was another eventful day. Went to Corus Hotel in KL for the Branded Fragrances & Cosmetics warehouse sale right after lunch. The price of perfumes on sale was ‘unbelievably’ cheap i tell you. The 70% discount signs found in those advertisements/brochures/flyers are definitely not a mere gimmick. I called it a Crazy Sale!


Being a perfume lover, i bought myself 3 new perfumes to add to my personal collections. The three are the Givenchy Gentleman(100ml), the latest Intimately Beckham(30ml) & a 100ml Esencia Loewe (claimed to be David Beckham’s favourite hehe..). i also bought the Adolfo Dominguez Aqua Fresca(120ml) for my mom. Believe it or not, the accumulated price for all four perfumes was only RM246!


Later on, we went to The Curve, Damansara to catch a movie. With no pre-planning on what movie to watch, we end up watching a ‘horror musical’ Malay movie, Susuk. Overall it was not that bad i rate it 7/10. Well above average if i should say.


Scene from Susuk

It was almost 8pm when the movie ended. Had our ‘sumptuous’ dinner at Serdang Perdana before headed to TGV Mines for another movie. Yes, another movie. This time it was the sneak preview of ‘You don’t mess with the Zohan’ starring the ever hilarious Adam Sandler. This is one hell of a movie!! Damn funny i laugh till my tear drops fall..hahahaha..Deym you Zohan!! So guys..go and watch it.


Never ever MESS with Zohan!

Sunday morning, attended the 9.15am mass at SFA, Cheras. After lunch went to MAHA2008 for a while before went back home at around 6pm. We only managed to cover about 20% of the MAHA2008 exhibition venues we were tired.


Thousands of people visited MAHA 2008


Durian Klon pun ada ka?

In the evening, did my laundry while waiting for Man U’s season opening match against Newcastle. Not so good, match ended 1-1 huhuhu.. Dear Sir Alex, please buy Berbatov ASAP!


Last but not least, here are some pictures taken at the MAHA2008..

Glory Glory Man Utd.. BBKK!

Man Utd have won the first silverware of the new season, picking up the FA Community Shield at Wembley after beating Portsmouth on penalties. Darren Fletcher had the best chance of the match in normal time after mis-kicking from five yards out, but awful penalty misses from Lassana Diarra, Arnold Mvuemba and Glen Johnson ensured United won the trophy.

Captain Neville lifted the FA Community Shield trophy


Great start for a new season

The Breakaway...to Sagil waterfall

OK, let’s not talk Phuket for now. Take a break..

This one is about my trip (with colleague) to Sagil waterfall last weekend, which is located at the base of the infamous Gunung Ledang (1276m) in Tangkak, Johor. It was said to be the home of the legendary Puteri Gunung Ledang, a woman who captured the heart of the Sultan of Malacca.

It takes us about an hour driving from Melaka before we reach Gunung Ledang Resort. Reached there around 1pm, parked our car at designated car park just outside the resort and start trekking uphill to the waterfall. The green scenery, the fresh air and the sounds of water rushing down from the top were simply awesome, refreshing & relaxing. Very relaxing indeed the 30 minutes climb feels like only 5 minutes. This is what i really really need to ‘revitalize’ my energy after weeks of hard work at office. I love Mother Nature!! Owyess!!

If the views along the way were awesome, the view at the top was simply breathtaking. Tranquil and peaceful environment at the top, added with clean and refreshing waters, one cannot help but to jump right away into the water upon reaching there hahaha...

Since there were quite a number of people at the top cascade (this waterfall got many cascades @ air terjun bertingkat²), we retreated a cascade below to get ourselves a perfect ‘landing’ spot where we can get better privacy and better views.

We spent a good 2 hours at the waterfall before receded back to the base. We reached Melaka around 6pm, feeling rejuvenated and happy. I stayed overnight at my colleague’s house before going back to KL the next day. Overall, my weekend ‘breakaway’ from the city was indeed satisfactory..to the Max!

As usual, here are photos to share with you guys. Cheers..!!


This is my colleague's house in Kg Bukit Rambai, Melaka.
This was taken on Saturday morning shortly before we depart to Sagil waterfall.



Rambutan tree just outside the house.


I was caught in the act trying to 'steal' some


Welcome to Ledang


We stop by at Tangkak town to buy some drinking water.
The picture shows a row of old shops..well maintained though.



At the base of Gunung Ledang.


Let's the trekking begin


The trail leading to the jungle


Camping area


Its starting to go uphill from here onward


If you are too lazy to climb up you can choose
to settle down at the many lower cascades.
It is not that bad afterall..



Half way thru the journey up..


The stairs are a bit steep and i need to be extra careful
since i am not wearing my proper trekking shoes..plus,
it can be a bit torturing if you are not physically & mentally fit hehe..


Cam-whoring along the way


Few minutes before reaching the top


I was speechless when i first saw the waterfall.
Don't you think it's wonderful?



Looking down..few cascades below.
Cool? Scary? Hahaha..



Visitors are only allowed up to this point.
To climb further up you MUST have a guide.
It takes about 4 hours to reach the top of Gunung Ledang.



At this point of time..
I was so tempted to dive into the water haha..



And that was exactly what i did right after that


Sooo...refreshing!!


I Love Mother Nature..


This particular spot is one of the BEST SPOT.
You can have a free 'body massage' here


I think i can sit here FOREVER, hahaha..


We were at the top just now,
a bit too crowded



Feel cold after a while..
Sun bathing haha..



Two Johorian shared the same spot with us


Feel good..it's time to go


On the way down


You don't see this in KL City


One for the pic


On the way back to the car park


The WELCOME sign near the entrance.
Hope to be back here again next time.



Upon reaching Melaka, we went
to get ourselves some rambutan



Later on, we tour the village on a motorbike


Riding thru the paddy fields


On the way back home.


Later on that night we went to Melaka town to eat 'Satay Celup' and to Jonker Street night market. Will blog about that in future (if got time..hehe).

Till then... Happy Friday (8.8.08) and have a great weekend ahead!
