day 50 - kuching, malaysia


Greets form the beach..

Just came from the beach and feelin' fine. Yeah, we went (me, 2 of my flat mates and 6 other uni mates) to the Damai beach, and to the Permai Rainforest Resort there. We stayed for night at the middle of the rainforest in a 6 bed cabin. It was soo nice that you cant even imagine, you know, all the noices the forest makes at night and so on. Of course there we huge wasps and lizards there but that's one of the "bonus" things you get there. :)) Hmm, we spent the first day (saturday) just lying on the beach and watching the sunset, and after that we went eating to a cafeteria / restaurant which offerd some excellent local cuisine's. Sooo good. The next day I headed to the beach and to get some breakfest. After those it started to show some dark clouds and promising some rain, so we didn't go trekkin' as we first planned to do. . Shame, because the place would have been a nice to go trekkin', but anyway Then I got the change to do some kayaking with few of the mates and of course had some nice football matches. . okay, now as it's already 00:00, I should prolly head to bed so, catch you at the flip-side.. :D hahah

day 43 - kuching, malaysia


raining like hell. .

Thank god it didn't rain like these this morning, as we headed to the Matang Wildlife Center. We would've been "rained" alive there. Okay, yeah, we went to a SMALL wildlife center. They had a few cage's or "areas" where they had some birds, monkeys and what-nots. They HAD, some bears and snakes but, the bears ran away, escaped to the wild, and the snakes got killed by other venomous snakes. hehe. Nice facilities they have there. . safe and shit.

Okay, yeah the week went a bit fast as we had 4 days of uni. Some weird lectures and weird tutorials(which are the same as seminars in England). Also in some extent humorous, the teachers being from different countries around world, their english isnt the best, and for like me I understand only half of what they are saying. They could surly improve their english in few ways than one.

Hmm, what else. . except that IT's STILL RAINING LIKE HELL..

day 32 - kuching, malaysia

So,
Today will be a bit of a photo update here, I'll also try to put some of them to facebook now as well.

Yeah, I'll explain where the photos are from in a moment, but here's some updates from my recent adventures. :) As you might quess, my computer is finaly working. Only thing is that my internet here is worse than crap, it's BS multiplied by infinity. I can surf in a decent speed IF it connects to the wifi that's here. Yeah, we got WIFI, which could actually be pretty good, IF (again) it would be done propely and don't by using the malaysian standards (which there are none).
Also uni started yesterday (monday) and we got a nice timetable, 2 seminars on monday, 2 on tuesday and 2 lectures on wednesday and 2 on thursday, this leave friday's off. And by the way, next day at the uni is next tuesday, hehe, we got some cancellations as well as next monday beeing a public holiday. Horay for mee.. also last weekend I went out with my flat mates and few of the australians who are also living in the same building. Nice places they have here, that I have to say, but the prices are ridiculous. You know, you can easily eat here with 1-2 euros for a meal, but you have to pay for a beer atleast 3-4 euros. Of course the price is the same in Finland, but here when compairing it to other prices it's (like I said) ridiculous.

hehe, but hey now for the photos. :))
