Life at Sibu - Part 1

Once we reach Sibu, we went to the tauke brother's shop which near the night market first because we go the place we stay. At Sibu, Ah Wu drove his tauke brother's Pajero as our transportation. Luckily we using this big car because there is 7 of us.

*The Pajero is a bit small to fit us also~~

*This is the nigh market, but it's just a car park during day time.

*The big size guy with red shirt is tauke's brother.

*This fellow will die without cigarettes, hahaha!!!

After that, we went to the place we stay which is near the terminal bus station. Everyone feel so tired at that time so we decided to rest a while and go out around 6pm something. The worst thing is I thought that we're staying at the hotel so that I didn't bring my towel. But until here then I know that we just stay at some kind of apartment which above the shop house at Jalan Oya. Every two of us share a room. There is only two rooms that have bathroom, so me and Lucas take one, and Ah Wu take one while the others just take the rooms with beds only. So, we have to share the bathroom together.

*This is the bathroom, luckily it got heater because the air conditioned is too cold!!

At around 6pm something, we went to the PC Fair venue to survey our booth before we went for dinner. The PC Fair venue is at Sibu Trade & Exhibition Centre which near their jetty.

*The Banner was so huge!!!

*But the Fair is so small, the hall is still smaller than our Kuching PC Fair Hall A.

After that, we went to the food court just beside the exhibition centre to have our dinner. We ordered "Mani Cai" (Cangkuk Manis), Bidin Belacan, ordered 'Kiam Hu Tu Bak' (Pork with salted fish), Fried Chicken with Prawn Sauce and Sweet and Sour Fish.

*'Kiam Hu Tu Bak', it just taste like Ginger Pork

*Fried Chicken with Prawn Sauce, we called it "NAN LU" at Kuching

*Sweet and Sour Fish

The total bill including our drinks is just Rm60++, it's quite cheap for 7 people. After that, we went to the centre point of Sibu because Ah Wu need to photostate the flyer for the PC Fair. At there while waiting for it, we took some photos in front the SWAN statue. Beside the statue, there are 12 animal statues from our Chinese Zodiac.

*Front view of the statue

*The Water Fountain

*This is some of the zodiac animals!!

*Vincent and his BROTHER!!!

When our flyer is done, we went to Wisma SanYan to walk walk. I have been here for 1 time only when I was in secondary school and and I found that it become more happening than last time.

*Wisma SanYan

*Inside the building

We leave there at around 10pm. After that, we went back to the our place, it's take only 10 minutes from he town area to the place we live. But for the first day, we already get lost for 3 times. But before we go back, we go EVERWIN to buy mineral water and some tidbits.

*EVERWIN Supermarket

*2 boxes of mineral water for 4 days

*The queue is so long, steven also pek cek liaw!!!

*So, this is the area we live~~

And finally, we get back to our name at around 11pm. With the towel I bought at Parkson in Wisma San Yang just now, I faster take my bath and take a rest.

*The towel I bought, RM15.90~~

*So 'SONG' after taking my bath~~

Before we sleep, we prepare all the things that need to use for the PC Fair on the next day. After that, everyone was hungry so we decided to find a place for dinner. All the shop close before 12am and finally we get to find a place just opposite the Sibu Gateway at town. At there , we scammed by people again because the supper we ate was too expensive and not worth for it. The shop name is called "Orient Canteen".

*From the left: French Fries, Fish Tauhu, Chicken Butt~~
All of these cost RM5 each, do you think it's worth??

*The face of "Bo Pien"~~ Kenak scam 2 times in the first day at Sibu.

So, it's end of first day, everyone was so exhausted, most of us straight go to sleep after we back to our room. But before we reach there, we lost again!!! SWT"""

SIBU!!! Here I come~~~

Last Thursday, I went to Sibu with other 6 of my friends (Ah Wu, Steven, Adrian, Vincent, Lucas and Wei Sing) to promote the Celcom Broadband at the PIKOM PC Fair. The night before, some of us still went to Ah Ti Cyber at 3rd miles to play Dota until 4am. When I reach home, I slept for a while and wake up at 6am to pack my stuff. We have to reach jetty at 8am to buy our ticket because the Express will depart at 8.30am. But all of us when to Chopstick Coffee Shop to have our breakfast before we go there. And we reach there at about 8.10am.

*This is our Kuching Jetty, located at Pending Industrial Area

*This is the tickets, Rm40 form Kuching to Sibu~~

*BYE BYE Kuching!!!

Inside the Express

*First class seat

*This is where we sit

*This is the emergency exit!! So small, don't know how the big size crawl out with this exit??

*Yeah, to Sibu we go~~ Count Down: 5 Hours!!!

*Everyone was so excited, hahaha!! Actually they are watching movie~

The express need to take about 5 hours to reach Sibu. And it's very bored in the express because there is nothing to do unless you want to watch the bored movie that shown on the TV. And the aircon was so cold also. So, if you want a comfortable express ride, you must bring a jacket, and headset for you to listen to the music in your handphone or stuck into your ears and sleep because the environment was too noisy covered by the engine sound. But for some of the people, cigarettes are needed just like us.

On the Deck

*This is how the deck looks like~~

*The deck can't fit too many people because it's the place to put all the passenger stuff~~

*The Express goes very fast when it's on the sea~~

*This is our Tauke, Ah Wu~~ Looks so cool!!!

*Everyone was holding the holder because it's to0 goyang~~

*But there are also some who 'be kia si' (tidak takut mati) try to dance on the deck~~

*This is how we light our cigarettes because the wind is too strong!!

When we were on the deck, we saw something funny, we found that there is someone who can sleep on the deck although the express keep on shaking. I still manage to take a photo and video of him, and you can see how's he 'fishing'.

*Hahaha, Adrian keep on laughing him!!!

*Sorry for the video, because I don't know how to rotate it!!

After a while on the deck, we went back to our seat inside the express. Some of us sleep and some of us watch the movie or listen to the song in their handphone. When it's around 11.30am, the express has reach Tanjung Manis. And there is still got about 2 hours to reach Sibu from here.

*This is only what we can do!!! Sleep, watch movie, listen song and take photo~~

*Jetty of Tanjung Manis

From Tanjung Manis to Sibu, the express only need to use the river route (Sungai Rajang), and it can't goes too fast to prevent accident because there is many others water transport that use the river.

*The Express goes so stable when it's using the river

*Although you stand outside the deck, you no need to hold also~~

*Here's come Titanic~~ So GAY!!!

*What a sexy boxer from Vincent!!

Before we reach reach Sibu, we can see many Timber at the side of the river. We can also see the tallest building in Sibu, Wisma San Yang when we're on our way to reach Sibu's jetty.

*Can you count how much is it??!!!

*Almost reach Sibu's jetty

*Wisma SanYan, the one behind~~

And finally we reach Sibu at around 2pm. When we're going down the express, we saw some people using the trolley to help us carry our luggage and stuff. First I though it was one of the express service, but we have to pay for it, early early scam by people when we reach there, so soi~~

*Yeah!!! We reach liaw~~

*Sibu's Jetty

*Good Bye!! Express No. 5

From this ride, I experience something which is very important. I have learned that we never try to sleep if there's still other friends who around us haven't sleep. Because......

*You will kenak kaciau by them, this is the normal only.

*The serious one, you will become Allien!!! (hahaha, this done by Lucas handphone, k770i)
