Jangkar waterfall

Jangkar waterfall, is the first waterfall that I actually went to to have a picnic and swim at. And I must say, what an experience it was! So smart of me to pick the largest waterfall in Southern Sarawak (according to The Star 2010) lol. Came back with cuts and bruises and muscle pains all over.

The road to the place was a freakishly long and rocky one! About 2 hours plus from Kuching city? And you really need good directions.


The hike was torturing. It was raining, the terrain was tough, there were lots of parts where we needed a hand, and once, a back to step on, to get through. We stepped into water, mud and rocks of all colors BAREFOOT! But all that was so worth it, when you get to see such beauty. Takes your breath away :)

There were two paths up the mountain. One was the watery path, and one was the jungle track. We picked the watery path to climb. And boy, was that not only torturing, but pretty dangerous too. Most of our injuries were from the slippery rocks and the current of the rapid flowing waters. 

The guys had to hold hands to form a snake to support each one of us at some steep climbs. Damn hard. Managed to take pics at some of the hard parts

I never knew I could ever climb a rock like this!

After like, a really really long hike, we finally got there...

It was.. WOW

The guy just jumped in :O

Spot the man!

Our crazy friend Jon had to try that too lol. Have a hilarious video of his jump that I'll update soon.

Breathtaking

The water was FREEZING cold. This was the first waterfall.

We decided to go all the way up to where the water starts flowing down.. Hence, we reached, the second waterfall! It was scary.

*gulp*

There was another shallower pool at the 2nd level. It was really beautiful. Like, heaven on earth lol.

"Baby pool" Which we girls love hehe. But down there is so :S

The guys were the first to go in deeper to find the 2nd level waterfall.

True natural mineral water. Had a few sips. Fawesome!

Blurry is what you get the first time you look down hahaha. Friend wanted to take this pic and post it up saying, "30 minutes before I GG" wtf

You can spot a few of our friends who are still down at the 1st waterfall on the lower right. *legs soften*

See how strong the current was T_T so hard to get through the water, twisted my ankle slightly when I slipped at the rocks with the water rushing at my feet. Climbing rocks is the better way of getting up than walking through the water.

And there we are, the 2nd waterfall. Which was even more beautiful, only shorter. heart heart! The tour guide showed us that we are able to go behind the waterfall, there's a small cave at the back. But the current was too strong so only Jon made it behind. I didn't even dare to try. Haha.. doubt my swimming skills.

The trip was amazing. There are altogether 7 waterfalls but we were to tired and only made it to 2. However, the adventure didn't stop there. 

On the way back, our dear friend, whose Danger is his middle name, had to do a stunt lol. Which got us into this mess:

LMAO.

When we finally got out of it, we only had 2 bars of fuel left, almost 2 hours of road to cover, and empty stomachs since 9am. HAHA. Got to Lundu to pump fuel, got an ice cream, and drove on a pitch black road for 80+ kilometers to Kuching.

Very eventful indeed.  I wouldn't mind to go on another trip like this, but maybe not the same waterfall anymore haha. It was amazing but torturing at the same time. But as always, thinking back, it's always another awesome experience.

Oh yeah, must credit my iPhone 4 for taking all the pictures above. Not bad for a 5 mega pixel camera phone. Had it in a waterproof casing which i was so lucky I brought! If not, my phone would never have survived the trip! So won't these awesome pictures. If you're interested in the iPhone waterproof casing, you may leave a comment as I have supplies, haha. Available for Blackberries and other digital cameras too. Wow, advertisement opportunity haha.

Anyway, till next time. Chaos

Back! & 5 Favorite iPhone apps

Hello all, it's the last month of 2010 and I am happy. Didn't take many pictures this month, because it just started ha ha.. hmm.. ahh..

There, my sort of happy face:

Which, I know, I know, doesn't even look like me.. It's the makeup and the pretty bad front camera of the iPhone 4. Less mega pixels = blur pic = good for flaw-full face. ha ha ha 

Anyway, yay, finally got my iPhone 4 and a pink devil casing which I have been searching high and low for. 

Sad that it's a sweet light pink tho. Would love it to be a strong hot pink. Devil cause I'm naughty. Pink cos I'm sweet, sortof. :p

Once again, I jailbreaked and "zh'ng"ed the display like no tomorrow. I used three themes you can find on Cydia. First is the Hello Kitty Theme (from BigBoss), 2nd is the Pretty Pink Theme (from ModMyi), and 3rd is Metal iPhone Pink iOS4 (from BigBoss). Then, wuarah:

 ♥  ♥  ♥  ♥  ♥  ♥  ♥  ♥  ♥  ♥  ♥  ♥  ♥ 

Okay, so besides all the pink  ♥ There are a few apps I have absolutely been loving! Not in order:


Fav 1: MoreBeaute

This is a photoshop/ photography app.

Reason for liking: On days without makeup, or when you just have super thick eyebags or extremely blemished skin, or places with lighting that brings out the worse and darkest colors on your face, you can still take beautiful pictures where your skin would look bright and flawless. It's main tools is the Blur tool and the Brightness tool. So, just adjust these two, and your face in the pictures will look so perfect! ♥ 

Fav 2: StarDunk

This is a game!

Reasons for liking: It is addictive! At first I thought it's just another basketball game, Eww (because I don't know a thing about playing sports without having to move your legs eg. sports video games >_<.). But it turned out to be so not! The game is simple, just toss the ball into a hoop and score as much points as possible. Awesome thing is you can play online and challenge with a bunch of people all around the world at once :D

Fav 3: Cut the Rope

Another game

Reasons for Liking: This is like the cutest little game  ♥  ♥  ♥ !!!!! The little froggy named Omnom I think, IS SO CUTE. Enjoyed feeding it with the little candy while getting all three stars in every round. So fun till I finished all of them before finals. Now there's a Christmas special of Cut the Rope for free.. Go get! 

Fav 4: WhatsApp

A messaging app!

Reasons for liking: I use this everyday! It's free (if you have internet/3g/wifi on ur phone), it's fast, its pretty, simple, and loads of friends have it! :D My WhatsApp contact list is expanding everyday, even my dad is on too lol. 

Fav 5: P Tracker

I don't really remember it's proper name in App Store but, if you type Period Tracker, I think you can find it. Yeap, its a health app, to track your period! lol

Reasons for Liking: Very useful especially for girls! By entering the time your period starts and stops each month, you can track the pattern of your menstrual cycle, and be reminded of your fertile periods and when the blood will start flowing out. So nice of such type of applications to exist, makes life easier for forgetful people like me :)))

That's five of my favorite apps that I've been using a lot recently, apart from Facebook, YouTube and Echofon (A Twitter App). Oh yeah, there's also that blogging app BlogPress that I used the other time. But I still prefer to just enter through Safari. Because I don't think I can check comments and newsfeed through BlogPress.

That's all for now, till next time! Tata~

针刚刺在心上血流已如注
背叛了幸福拿爱当赌注

Colour me

BlogPress's pretty cool.. Got a few more of my favorite apps I can't wait to share with u guys.. But for now, Imma wear my battle goggles (glasses) and fight for finals :D

Lucks to everyone!
