Is it really been 2 months???

Hi there...really its been 2 months since my last post...mainly because of doing my assignments and preparing for my 5th semester final exam and to be honest, i did it quite badly. I don't know why but I'm really bad at test and exams, for the last exam all the things that I've read, i can't remember one bit...its true what they say..the ability to memorize fades with age. Enough of that...a lot have been going on since my last post, for one..went to Sepang F1 circuit to watch the 2008 Malaysian F1 Grand Prix with Apis and on that day Apis lost his phone, being a victim of a pickpocket. Somehow I felt kind of guilty and responsible for this tragedy mainly because i'm the one who asked him to go with me to watch the F1.
Then there were sleepless nights for the past weeks trying to complete my assignments and thank god its over for now. The highlights for the past months was the trip to Sarawak for the JCS Briefing and site visits. Me and my officemates went to JTK Office in Kuching, Kapit and Sibu. We stayed in Kuching for 2 days from monday to wednesday and then went to Sibu on wednesday night. The trip to Kapit from Sibu was awesome...we took a express boat....yup BOAT ! from the Sibu wharf to Kapit, the journey took nearly 3 hours. Because we were in Sarawak the sun were up at 6.00 am so i had to woke up at 5 am because the first boat to Kapit was at 7.30 am. The fare was rm25.00 for business class and rm 30.00 for first class and the normal class is rm 20.00. I don't know the difference between the first and bussiness class. because it looks the same to me. We arrived at Kapit at about 10.30 am and went back to Sibu at 3.15 am the last boat back to Sibu. I went back to KL on friday afternoon but the others stayed 2 more days in Kuching to do some shopping.
There were also the wedding of Salleh and Aslisa, my officemates in Melaka, because both worked in BTM, KSM most of the BTM staff were there.
Here are some pictures for the past 2 months...

Had some Sup Power (Power Soup) when arrived in Sibu. It taste like medicinal herbal soup, it had some kind of meat inside, very soft but taste funny, later someone told me it was cow's penis...Nice...

Kapit wharf, they said that when the rainy seasons the water level are at the top of the wharf.

Our boat was the most outside, so we have to cross another 2 boat to get to the wharf.
