The Journey to Sabah...

The journey to Sabah was one of my very ambitious and desire destination in my life since I know I can do hiking. Do you believe, I was the one who use believe that the whole world only consists of 14 states within Malaysia and there is only one country in this planet and it call Malaysia. Funny right.....I also find funny. I was like the "frog under the well", or be more precisely "the kid inside the island". Of course it won't happen today as the information age, internet is accessible anywhere and anyplace in this world. It will only happen if you chose not to know. Remember, we have the power to choose.

The more you know, the more you know you don't know ----- Stephen R. Covey

As time going on, I start to know more things, and I'm not really like to study. So how do i know new things without reading...? I know things or information through a very conventional method and yet still very popular until today ----Watching TV. As we know, our mind always tend to go towards the easy short cut.....watching TV is far more easily than study right.I bet almost all the kid agree with me.

I was born from a small but yet healthy family. I was very lazy but sporty. I like to play all kind of local game such as "One leg"," Karater", "Rope Jumping" and I was very excel. The funny things is, instead of I'm very sporty and excel, I don't even have the opportunity to hike the highest mountain in my island ---Penang Hill. Why? Because, I don't even bother and don't ever stretch out of my comfort zone. Until the last in my secondary school, I manage know a group of friend who really very enthusiastic and interested to hiking and this mark as the starting point of my journey to hiking and later part to travel. Slowly, I become very fit in hiking and always for look for new peak within my small little island to conquer.

The South Peak, Sabah

Then, how do i know about SABAH? Of course I knew it when I study geography during secondary 2. During that time, I knew that there are 2 most famous , yet highest hiking destination in Malaysia, which are the Summit of Mount Tahan, Pahang (the highest peak within peninsular Malaysia) and The summit of Mount Kinabalu, Sabah (the highest in Malaysia).

As human nature, we always strike for the best, the highest, the most famous, the biggest...... So, during my secondary 2, I did planted the seeds or in lay man term I did set my goals to conquer these summit with no timing.....haha.So you bet it....i was procrastinated, said I will do it when i reached my final year of secondary, then to 1st year of Varsity life, 2nd year and....

So, what will happen next.....what push me to make the decision and achieving my goals...well please wait for my another post......

The Art of The ComeBack...

Sound familiar right! Of course "The Art of The Comeback" is the book written by Donald Trump. I have to admit, I didn't really know about Donald Trump and I didn't read the book. But, I know him and respect him because of the art of his comeback after of big down turn of his financial and business.

The reason why I talk about this topic is I had been created this blog quite long time ago. I was very excited and focus on the first few steps (days) after the blog was created. Then, I was so call turn into "Cold" period. That is why my blog is not updated after the first few days.

Now, I did deleted all my post except the one which i had the comment from one of my best friend. I intend to restructure my blog and the way i represent my taught about travel. Dear friend please be prepared for my totally brand new way to see the world.....That's the art of my comeback.....
