Sandakan Trip 2005 Part 1

Went to Sandakan for sightseeing a while back around 2005. The mascot for the town is the Orang Utan. Watch the video of Orang Utan here.

Anyway, back to Sandakan. It is like a 7 to 9 hours journey by bus from KK to Sandakan. It is like freaking long and also the bus driver would put "Tok Hoi" of Initial D fame to shame with his skills navigating along the treacherous small and winding road uphill and downhill. Hell, the bus driver can kick "Tok Hoi" ass racing with the eye closed and hand tied to the back..... =p


Here, for those who really don't know
"Tok Hoi" of Initial D fame



Back to Sandakan, one thing I noticed when I arrived in Sandakan is that there are lots of monkeys and their brothers and sisters at every roundabout. Well, most of it at least. =p

Darn, I think the age factor is beginning to creep up to me. You know, the memory fades with age thingy. Noooo, I am still too young to be old... Nooooooo~~~~ However, the previous post doesn't have pictures as example. Yep, I am trying to justify my mistake.. =p)*** Brains again. Looks like I am fascinated with brains. Anyway, there is this Left Brain or Right Brain Test post previously to test whether you use more of the left side or the right side. (Some even commented that the picture is altered and that it is a trick to fool the eyes.) So, this is a personality test that determine which type of personality you have. It might be accurate and might be not but just give it a try for the fun of it. =p First of all, you will need to identify which side of the brain you use. This will be done in two parts and the combinati
