World Walking Day 2011

20th November 2011 was being noted in history as it's the World Walking Day 2011! I missed last year's walk. So this year when I got the news, I immediately went to Sarawak Plaza to register myself. Early bird gets the worm. I got free tshirt! 

That morning I had to reach there by 5.30am. So I woke up super early for breakfast. But end up there's no instant noodle at home =.= So I had to head down for breakfast in town. Oh where else but McD~ Nope I wasn't alone. YL was in this walk with me and he's nice to drive out earlier to accompany me for breakfast. Man the weather was stiffing cold that morning!

Met up with Evelyn, Karol and Sharon~ Also saw my cousin Chee but then she left after she collected her tshirt =.='''

We waited for so long because some actually went to register on the day itself. And it's only until that morning then they set up those tents =.=''' So last minute!

People mountain people sea! There were hundreds attended! Awesome gather Kuching peeps! It's a time way too early for any Kuchingite to wake up on a Sunday morning but heck we're all so in for this walk!

The stage.

Finally at 7-ish they started the aerobic session. Man it's tiring! It's fun but then the morning aerobic is way too long! I lost count of the time.

Oh hello Mr Koko Krunch! Me love Koko Krunch much!!! Of all the cereal, Koko Krunch is my favourite! Why? Because I'm a HUGE FAN OF CHOCOLATE!!!!

After the aerobic session and speech session, we started our walk around the city! From old court house, we walked towards post office.

Then down we went to Star Cineplex. The weather was beginning to get hotter.

Then we walked back towards Hilton.

And turned in from Khatulistiwa Cafe. People start taking photos with the step-counts board. Hehe

Back at starting point! No I didn't count how long we walked but I think it's about 30-45 minutes only. Oh yes! We have FREE Koko Krunch and Cornflakes! ME LOVE!!!!! Nestle was one of the many sponsors. They sponsored Milo drinks too~

And FREE MAGGI TOO!!!! Maggi sponsored curry flavoured instant noodle. Yum!!!

Clown to please the kids with balloons~

Lastly, local singers were there to entertain those who stayed back for more fun. I left not long after that. Need to get home and rest more.

Nevertheless, it was a great experience walking with hundreds of Kuchingites around our beautiful Kuching! I shall do it again next year (provided I'm at Kuching). 

Ta~

My Dream Came True

Image
Today marks a very historical day for me =D 25th of July Year 2010 is a new day for me to remember. Hehehe =DD Why??? There comes in on how my title connects to this post. I've been doing surveys for months. Saving up all that I can. Budgeting myself in everything I spend. Just so my dream can come true. Yes. It is once again due to my 'kiasuness' . Partly because it's what I like to do. Partly also, it's because I promise myself I will travel more. Travelling means seeing the world. And I don't wana miss a single moment not being able to remember where I went, what I did, what I ate, what I bought and of course, who I went with. So, I've finally settled myself down. And I turned my direction towards Nikon =) And today, this noon, I went over Copal at Jalan Kulas with my sweetness-overdozed boyfriend to bring home my new baby =DD These are what I brought home. =DD I can't smile anymore because my mouth is already numb. Hah

Dinner was held at Pullman Hotel on the 26th of June. I was there with bf and his family because his sister, Judy had been awarded. One for herself and one for Allunique. Let the pictures do the talking. My theme for myself: Vintage! Even dug out my new handbag to use. Hehe =) Wasn't plan on using it until my current ones spoil. Also, I was assigned to be a cameraman's assistant and my job was to help carry his bag... =.=''' While he went around talking pictures of SO MANY pretty ladies..... =.=''''''' Menu of the night. There's a little gift for everyone. A small piece of marble cake by Maria Kek Lapis Sarawak. Our table. 3 tables all under Allunique (EM) Sdn Bhd. My favourite shot of the night!
