Kotobian Tadau Kaamatan… Happy Harvest Festival… to all the people of Sabah wherever you are 😀

Kaamatan is celebrated in Sabah for two days… 30th and 31st May every year… and it’s gonna be public holiday till Tuesday coz the first day of Kaamatan falls on Sunday.

OK, I have not updated my blogs for more than two weeks…  well, I took a break coz I was away with some activities…

I left for KL on 15th to attend the Digital Camera, Imaging and Media expo in Mid Valley… then continue with study tour to Hi Tech Padu, Ranhill and Putra Jaya from Monday and Tuesday.

Then I was hotel alone for two days waiting for my paintball teammates at Cititel Hotel MidValley for the International Super Seven Championship 2010 in Petaling Jaya… which were held from 22nd and 23rd May. I did not played coz my back was still injured… but I still had sunburn… coz I was also under the sun watching and taking my teammates photos.

Then back to Sabah on 24th May… full with sunburn and fatigue… really exhausted with more than a week activities… 😛 My skin has turn black… i guess my face is full with blackheads… need a blackhead remover and some scrub… 😛 coz I look black and shiny now…

Then get more sun burn on Saturday, 29th May, for the Burnout360 Sabah Drift Challenge… which was organized so badly…  they put the schedule as 8am – Midnight… but the drift challenge was put to 4pm then to 6pm… imagine the amount of sunburn we have to take from 11am!!!

OK, thats all for now… need to get ready to KDCA to take cultural photos… Aramai Tii…

Last Saturday, 6 February 2010, went to see the launching of Pesta Tarian, Unicorn dan Singa… in other words, the launching of Dance, Unicorn and Lion Celebration… in conjunction with the coming Chinese New Year Festival on the 14 and 15 February 2010.

The launching was held at the Padang Merdeka or Padang Bandaran in Kota Kinabalu around 3.00pm and finished around 5.30pm.

The crowd are quite large… the main stage’s seats are full and the surrounding the field is crowded with spectator and of course by the lion, unicorn, dragon and dance troops…

Me and Disney was roaming amongst the troops to have good pictures of them… and the 3.00 pm sun is quite hot… lucky my muscles are quite fit ever since attending gym 😀 so I was not getting tired so fast with the hot sun… but the sun is biting and burning… and was not using sun block lotion or acne body lotion… and this will surely make the back neck gets sun burn and red spots like acne, which will appears in the next few days…:P

Anyway, when it was launched, the sound of the drums and gongs beating was spectacular… imagine standing and walking around next to the many troops… beating their musical instruments and performing with their lion, unicorn and dragon 😀 but it was enjoyable and worthy 😀

Pictures…
