Lovely Husband,
In this day, I wish you Happy Birthday and may all the success is with you. Turning into 27 years old, you have made a lot of changes in your own life. From being a playful one to someone who settle down and building a lovely family together with me. I'm glad we are still holding hand firmly, and you are still putting on lot of effort to make things happen.

In this occasion, let's thanks Mother for giving birth to a lovely person like you and brought you up with all the cares and loves. 27 years back, on this day was her most painful day in her life. Therefore, let's go home and give a tight lovely hugs to Mother ! =)

Happy Birthday, Husband & Thank you, Mother !

Lovely Wife;

Patresa will give some review on both Resort. Pangkor Laut Resort vs Nexus Resort. Both have nice webpage with details information that give us an urge in our "MUST VISIT" places.

The Sea
Pangkor laut has a crystal clear water surface and nicer seaview comparing with Nexus resort eventhough Nexus resort has a longer beach. Patresa thought, Nexus Resort's beach is just a little too ordinary, nothing too impressive though. Oh yea, Pangkor laut has white sand too !

Activities
Ok, Nexus Resort provides more activities comparing with Pangkor Laut. You may check out all the available sports & recreation at the webpage. Pangkor Laut is more on relaxation.

The Crowd
The crowd in Nexus Resort are mostly family with kids and tourist with attached on their travel agency. You will see tour guide to show their customers around the resort. However, in Pangkor Laut, it's more peaceful in which there's not many kids running around, and NO tour guides.

so, if you are planning on family trip, Nexus Resort is the choice. While if you are planning for honeymoon or anniversary like us, the romantic Pangkor Laut definitely win over Nexus Resort. =) Pangkor Laut Resort will prepare special arrangement for your honeymoon or anniversary. So, do inform them upon your arrival !!! ...

services
In term of services, Pangkor Laut win BIG Time !!!! .... Pangkor Laut provides World Class Services. There's still a lot of room for improvement and learn for Nexus Resort. In Pangkor Laut, we were treated like a King and Queen on the island!

Price
In Pangkor Laut, the price that you pay is complimentary with EVERYTHING. Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner and some activities, besides for massage... The package for 4 days 3 nights will comes up to 2k++.
In Nexus Resort, the price of Borneo Garden Villa is RM300++, Ocean View Villa is RM400++, complimentary with ONLY BREAKSFAST. Lunch & Dinner is on your own ...=) Bicycle rental would cost RM30/hour in Nexus Resort.

Food
Patresa is not any food lover. Patresa would compared the complimentary Breakfast ... Pangkor Laut would be more generous... =P .. Pangkor Laut provides FRESH fruit juice, with no sugar added.

Overall, both resort gave us a very good experience to stay. =)

Side by side – Year by year.





Stay tune with -patresa- =)

I believe Nexus Resort & Spa is one of the well known resort in Sabah, as this resort was screen in one of the TVB Drama - "Fu Guai Mun". Patresa will stay here for 2 days 1 night. Patresa is now staying at Borneo Garden Villa. Undeniable, this place is very nice and superb comfortable. Pat is here for the second time, while myself for the very first time... Patresa dream is to stay at Sutera Harbour Resort, which located on Manukan Island, but it's just too expensive for our liking. ;) ... Therefore, patresa decided to settle down with Nexus Resort. =) ...

I can only describe with one word. BEAUTIFUL =)

On this holiday, patresa decided to make it a little different from the previous one. Patresa did not booked any hotel before depart. Just about half an hour surfed on the internet, patresa has found Rain Forest Lodge. It's one of the affordable backpackers' accomodation in town, and it's strategic with surrounded by all the convenient store, travel agency, the famous seafood, and most of all the jetty. =)

Without thinking twice, patresa decided to stay at Rain Forest Lodge for 2 days 2 nights. It's RM60/room with common toilet. Patrick never tried staying at backpackers' hotel, so he was a little shocked. While, I tried once in Cameron Highland but I still feel a little uncomfortable too. However, we could adapt quite fast with the environment. It's a very small room, equipped with a queen size bed, a small tiny table and a chair. It's a square room, a really small one ! Patresa didn't stay inside the room most of the time. Patresa was out to explore the beautiful, clean and peaceful city... Kota Kinabalu, Sabah ! Patresa was in the room only during the night time for rest. =)

If you are planning on backpacking in KK, Sabah, I would strongly recommend this hotel. =), The toilet is clean, and the room is with aircond. It's safe, and the location is very strategic. There's Live Band everynight ! Do check it out at Rain Forest Lodge

"I'm not perfect, i'm not saint, babe, i'm not angel's wings, i'm no hero in shining armor, all i'm is what you see.........." while listening to this song "corbin-i'll stand by you...wind wave blowing towards us, planes fly over us, watching the sun goes down at sunset, light up a cigarette and a glass of beer in hand.....we are enjoying seafood at waterfront, kota kinabalu. Somehow we just feel good to take a week off the hectic city and go on vacation. No worries & works...I'm just simply enjoying this wonderful moment with my loved one...Happy Anniversary...I Love You.

Yes,Tomorrow 10th May 2010 will mark down patresa first anniversary. Probably I've mentioned it too many times, and has been counting down for the day to come, but patresa just can't wait for the lovely date !

Flashing back a year ago in 2009, it wasn't a big celebration but instead it's a day for celebration of love. Looking back on our pre-wedding album, it still put a smile on our face. It was like, it had just happened not long ago because patresa still could remember vividly on that very special day. The whole marrying process. =)

In this 2010, on our first anniversary, patresa not only wishes for more anniversaries to come but also more lovely on each passing day. May patresa's love will not fade away, but grows even stronger. =) ...

Our anniversary is a time to look back at the good times and a time to look ahead to live our dreams together

On this lovely season, patresa has changed the body wash to Olay 7 in 1 extra nourishing and ANTI-AGEING. Patresa fully recommended this to all the friends and readers. After about 2 weeks of using it, patresa could feel the effect of softness on skin. And patresa love the fragrance with it. =) ...

Happy mother's day to all the mother in the world and to myself. =) ... I was almost burst into tears this afternoon when a sales lady wishes me "Happy mother's day". I felt something is different. I used to celebrate mother's day for my own mother, but this year, I will be celebrating it for myself as well and for 2 beautiful lovely mothers. =) ...

Happy Mother's Day !

Remember the last season where I blogged about a decision I've made? Yes, I tendered my resignation on last season. I was a service engineer in telecommunication field for one year. I was working in a good company with good remuneration, salary increment, and best of all it is 21 days of annual leaves and flexible working hours...Everything seems to be good to me. But, I could not take up the stress of working at night during migration activities. =(. That's the only fall back. ;).

The initial plan after i tender my resignation was to apply to become a Teacher in private or International school. Sadly to say, I applied for a few schools, managed to get into interview session, however, I wasn't get selected. The main reason was, I do not have teaching experience. Moving forward from there, I decided to settle down with business development area in which I have to start all over again in my career path. I went into a few interview as well, some turned me down, and some with a very competitive monthly income which I wasn't satisfy with. All these took me a month to search for the right job, right position, and right offer. I went to interview almost every week, 4 weeks ! But, none that suit me, and none I suit them too.

Finally, after all the ups and downs searching for the right job, I have found one. With the job that I've always wish to be in, the job that related to Technology, and most of all, the MONEY is good. =) ... I'm here to thanks my old friend, for the helpful recommendation. Without your helps, I would be jobless for uncountable time. =)

Yups, I am now almost 1 week jobless !! .... And I'm enjoying working as Pat's PA. =) ... one more day to go... Patresa will be going back to Teluk intan over the weekend for mothers' day celebration. Also, Patresa will depart for holiday for 1st anniversary. Back from the holiday, I will start my new career path...

This season is a lovely season. Patresa is so busy and has limited time to update this beautiful lovely space.

Yesterday, we were home at 8pm. Patresa felt that, it was just too late to arrive home! ...We miss our lovely home so much.... The comfortable place to lean on, after a whole hectic day. For the first time, patrick said, "darling, you have grown up so much" ... I asked "Why?"... And pat said, "You started to miss home, and have homesick.". It was ONLY 8pm ! And most of the people out there, probably just had their dinner and hang out in the mall or etc. But patresa was at home, enjoying the time of two in the lovely home,cleaning every corner of the house, and the night end with Astro & TVB Drama . =)

Patresa has so much to write about. Really, but too little time to jot down some words here.

Anyway, Patresa is counting down to 5 more days to Patresa 1st Anniversary, and Lucas' 6th month old...Also 4 more days to Mothers' day !! Yups, Mothers' day...It's a plural !!! We have 2 lovely mothers to celebrate with on this lovely occasion on this year 2010... =)
