I know, I know, I know...that I seriously had almost neglecting my blog.  Sometimes I do feel like wanted to update something but...you know, it's just kind of hard to break this habit.  *sigh*

Well, in case you were wondering what am I up to, all that I can say that I am doing pretty much the same thing I did...paintball trainings...and yes, next month I will be playing for a tournament in Kuching, my first speedball tournament in the country with a team that will made it's debut that day (will announce it as soon as it's making appearance lah *so perasan la AngeLBeaR...* . 

Being someone who just picking up playing...after being a referee for years, I know that I had to work extra hard for it.  Ya lah kan...orang stand pun tak betul, how la? 

But I do grateful that I still had people around me that never give up to train me, and telling me the things that I need to improve more.  Friends that never stop giving me support.  


2 markers that I am currently using to train.
Top one I named it Mr. Mac (belongs to Ari, in which I had it with me for safekeeping for the time being)
bottom is Ms-T (short form for Tsunami, the model name of the marker)

Most of my sifu's (yes, I trained with more than just 1 player) told me that I am improving - which is a good thing, right?  But somehow, I still feel like there is more to achieve, and I am still searching for it. 

Anyway, makan-makan is not excluded in my activities.


Sweet and spicy beef tripe from Kah Hiong Ngau Chap restaurant...not for the faint of heart.


A visit to Kah Hiong Ngau Chap Restaurant won't complete with these delicious 'ngau chap' or beef noodle soup. =)


Eating from a chopping board, creative presentation from Ooze Cafe
(somewhat reminded me of Jamie Oliver)


Fish kon lo mee from WanWan Coffee Shop for breakfast...


Fresh Taco Salad from Pancake International House for lunch the other day...


peace waffle for dessert, also from Pancake International House...


Fresh green seaweed to the heart's content from Pak Din Ikan Bakar...


Heavenly ice cream from Veda Blu...(Arry said she'll have me walk home if I just take 1 scoop, no kidding!)


Can never have enough of this famous 'Ikan Terbang' from Koki Bandung...
Sorry Ari, stock sudah habis...hihihihi~


Joanne is keeping us fit fat by bringing more goodies to the field.


My brother is not helping either.


Managed to find time for a short moment of peace...by Tanjung Aru Beach.


How I wish I am armed with my humble cam...but this will do.  
Love this shot of the Taiwanese couple.

so yeah...till the next post! 
Some people might be surprised to see me in unlikely places.  

In an office, for example, they said that I look different from the 'AngeLBeaR' they used to see in the field.  You should have seen their faces whenever they saw me being 'lady like' (very much to my mom's approval) but how can you wear those pretty outfits that you got in a paintball field?

2 days ago, Leanna came to KK and asking for a favor.  There is an oil and gas exhibition going on at Magellan in Sutera Harbor so, yeah...yours truly to help her man the booth.  (Seriously, from paintball to engineering?)



Not that many exciting things I found or grab for this time, though.  (Yes, I changed my surname everytime it involves with this company.  Automatically, the director of this company has 3 awesome (chewah) daughters instead of 2! Hehehehe~)

But I do glad, these 2 days I meet up with some familiar faces though...from paintball! =)


 Met Ollie, one of my former Splatz1 team mate.
Notice the pink jacket? I recently got them from Brands Outlet.  Can't resist my favorite color...and yes, 
it's very cold in the hall so the jacket comes in handy. =)


 Ah...Riezanie, my team mate for the KK woodsball group.
He's here too to represent his company. =)  
See how 'tall' I am? hahahahaha~


The weather is favorable on the 1st day of the exhibition.
Managed to capture the sunset... =)



On the second day, which is yesterday and also the last day of the exhibition,
Gracy came for a visit!  =)


Andy and Sacha too!  =)


Sacha brought some of her dark chocolate cake and a small tub of ice cream to go with it.
Heavenly!!!!

Ah yes...

Managed to pose one for the album...

Photo taken by Leanna. 
=)

Anyway, it's been an awesome 2 days.  Thank you Sacha for the nice cake!  =)
I know that I had been slacking in my blog lately *repeats again*.  It's not that I don't really have the time or something like that.  I just...ran out of ideas.  Staring at the screen for merely 15 minutes and wondering what to write about can be a torment to me sometimes.  At times I do have the idea but when I started, it just simply...gone.  *need more motivation to write*

Well, not long after Taiwan, I found myself packed for another paintball tournament in Labuan, called the CAP3 as the head referee.  Had fun meeting up friends old and new alike.  Stayed in Beta Apartment and having the whole big place for just 3 of us - me, Ari from Brunei and Andrew is just superb! Hahaha...well at least we don't have to fight for bathroom as each of our rooms has one, the whole living room - no one's really watching the TV anyway.  (will show the photo of the place next time)



The view from the jetty at Jesselton Point where I will start my 3 hours journey from KK to Labuan via Ferry Express.  


Labuan Express...they ran out of the first class tickets...yours truly have to be content with the economy class at the bottom deck of the ferry.  


my final view before the seasick pills starts kicking off...


Arrived!  Cico, came to pick me up from the ferry terminal...hehehee...thanks buddy...for making some time for us.

Walk the field session...yep...you got to identify where's your possible sweet spot that you want to be
during the tournament.
 
 A simple briefing to the referees and quick refresher about rules and regulations of the game.

 
 Me and Andrew during the player's briefing.

ambuyat session at Papayas' Beach Lodge...hahahahaha~!

yours truly on duty, as usual.

cert given by the organiser as a token of appreciation.

Ari got his gold with team Dracone.
As said, one of many more to come.  Keep it up!
 
After the tourney, it's fun time to unwind everything!!  LOL~ the player's party was fun (no photos...as everyone is too busy partying in the club.)
 
Andrew checked out from the apartment on Sunday and we went our own ways.  But still managed to stalk him at Papayas Beach Lodge and managed to get some shots there...
 
 
that's Andrew...told him to just keep on walking...


Haiya....suddenly someone appeared~ LOL!
 
 Andrew looks into the horizon...wonder if he's thinking what's for dinner...
or if he should extend his stay in Labuan...or maybe one or two hours body massage after this...hahaha~!


I think I am lucky that day.


Ari showing off his paintball shooting skills with a camera. =p

A cup of sabah tea before retiring for the night and head home the next day...

And yes, apart from bringing back bruises from the weekend battle, I am content with the goodies I got...

Referee jersey from Ari, T-shirt from his cousin Iskandar,
Twiggies from Andrew (it was a lot more when I first got it, well...can't resist lah!).
Thanks guys!!!! =)
 
 
My great thanks to Extremezone Paintball Labuan, Rqueen Proshop Labuan, PusatKo Labuan, players, fellow referees from Labuan and Sabah Paintball Referee Organisation, friends for the great weekend!  I hope to see you all in the next event to come!  =)
One of the things that can be found in Taiwan are airsoft guns.  Well, just for the sake of looking at it lah.  Can't even dream of bringing it back for legal reasons, plus...I am not into airsoft (no pun intended)...just a look will be enough.

So, cannot bawa balik..pegang pun jadi.  Hehehehe...







 The owner allowed us to touch, feel and see the guns...even took photo with it. (maybe because we're foreigners I think) =p


My brother's mean look....LOL!


Yours truly...mean-looking bear? hehehehee~ 

Note:  Just like paintball markers, airsoft guns are not toys.  It can inflict serious injury and in some cases in overseas, death.  Kindly consult the authorities before thinking of getting them.  Bringing airsoft guns/paintball markers out in the public are serious offense.
