Sabah Trip - Day 2

Can't really sleep well as am excited to visit Labuan after 3 years leaving the island. Wake up around 5 a.m and prepared myself for the trip. Check out from the hotel around 6.30 a.m. Walking to the Jesselton Point as the hotel is just a stone throw away. It was raining that time, so have to walk carefully.

Raining in KK

While waiting for the ferry to depart KK, manage to take some photos around the Jesselton Point

Depart KK around 8.30 a.m. During the journey the weather was still raining and the sea was a bit choppy.

Arrived Labuan around 11.00 a.m. The weather was gloomy.

Weekend getaway with friends

Today we went to Annah Rais for some BBQ and bathing at the hot spring. The hot spring was kind of hot, even  hotter than the house's water heater. Quite fun with my course mates and our lecturers, enjoying together before the graduation.

Last day of April

Last day of April. May is starting tomorrow. A lot of happenings coming soon in May.  4 more papers to go and final year report presentation in 3 weeks time. Then comes the end of the semester and study in UNIMAS.  Holiday plan had been set for the month of June. Starting with the KK+Labuan trip in early June and Johor trip end of June.  After that comes the job hunting to earn some income before the convocation scheduled for 22-23 Oct 2011.

Holy Thursday

Today is the start of the Easter Triduum, which consist of Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Saturday.  After this week will be the beginning of the 'battle', the final semester exam.  Will be held for three weeks with some breaks in between.  As there are still a lot of unfinished tasks to do, so the tasks will be done gradually over these few remaining days.

Sunday

With 1 more day to go for the submission of FYP draft, the pressure to finish writing the draft is mounting high. With other assignments and the would-be exam in 1 week time, the pressure is getting enormously high. The only thing that I have to do is to motivate myself to finish all these things and pray.
