I was very lazy...VERY lazy the past few days because it was so hot and humid, i can faint if i stand under the sun for 3mins..urgh..and the wonderful streamyx is not helping me cure my laziness at all~
Anyways i wasn't lazy to the max..i really did my research on sandakan food these few days (in another words-eating) but this time i have to watch my weight because......just because ;_;
BUT..allow me to continue being lazy because i will go off topic for a while just to write about something i came across today because i am a proud Sandakan-ian
I'm sure some of you know who this is.. Someone told me about Sandakan being blogged about so i was REALLY curious..
I've seen the comments and they aren't really that good..some are being defensive some are being mean towards the defensive people and some are being...plain mean..
(freedom of speech is interesting)
As for me, I was LOL-ing because of the things he said that are SO sandakan and are only found in sandakan..
Environment friendly aircon-less airport, only in Sandakan
Again, aircon-less airport that looks like an open church, only in Sandakan
Small town with more than 10 interesting roundabouts, only in Sandakan
(FYI, Mr. Croc is pointing towards the crocodile farm)
1970s building stronger and more tahan lasak than any other buildings, only in Sandakan
And no~ we are not stuck in the 70s, we're just being conservative towards all the historical buildings (LOL, excuses)... In fact one of my friend stays in a 70s building
But there are still 17843920125 things that he hasn't found out about Sandakan yet but i don't really blame him, you have to stay here to find out...
It's not surprising anymore that people think Sandakan is still using boat to go to papan school and have KFCs on top of trees but some tend to expect too much from Sandakan especially since KK has gone through major modernization these few years but tbh Sandakan is still very Sandakan and i like how it doesn't change that much;
1. I like how i don't need to worry about traffic jam that much
2. I like how i don't need to worry about numerous motorbikes when driving
3. I like how i can fill my stomach eventhough I forgot to bring wallet and only have rm5
4. I like how i can go pluck coconut or avocados and drink/eat it fresh myself
5. I like how Sandakan has more Oxygen than KL, the air is so much easier to breathe in
6. I like how i can speak pure Cantonese here without all the "lui" and "kok"
7. I like how MPS can be renamed as MahathirPungutSampah :x
8. I like how only we use "BAH"
9. I like how only we call Ninja King Ninja King instead of Land Cruiser(?)
10. I like how Sandakan has Lemon Ping, Best rm1.50 TehC Ping, Best rm2.50 Pearl Tea
11. I like how we can bump into 5 friends and relatives in a day out
12. I like how news can travel SO FAST in Sandakan because everyone knows everyone
13. I like how all the pendatang asing efficiently build 10 rumah papans a day even after massive evacuation in BDC
14. I like how all our taxes and government profits are used for development in Semenanjung
15. I like how i can get bitten by 7 aedes mosquitos a day and not get denggi
16. I like how Sandakan always have blackouts and have no waterIn conclusion, I always find it amusing that people think Sandakan still ride boats but i don't really care if they know about Sandakan or not because i only care about how i can still enjoy my 'ulu' Sandakan.. a~
Sandakan-ians who are not proud of their own hometown are worse than other people who doesn't know Sandakan
