Milo at Tintap

Last Monday morning, before seven it was, I found out that he was missing. I announced my find to CMK, his good friend. She clearly displayed her fear of the unknown. She went around the house calling his name. The shrill of her voice might have been loud enough for dog's hearing further than a hundred meters away. After a while I thought her voice was slowly going to crack. Suddenly the love-call roughened and changed. I turned to see cause. Galloping home fast were Obam and Milo, Milo leading Obam at neck-length. The verbal scolding, in English, poured onto Milo, sometimes vented onto Obam. Their breakfast that morning was not worth the scolding they receive, so to speak. They are presently both contenders to be a top-dog at Tintap. It was found out later that they both came from a neighbor's house whose four-legged female happened to be mengawan.

Mr & Mrs Joe Tangit and Family

Joe Tangit and Francesca Chin, who are both in their 60s this year, twenty10, would be celebrating their forty-fourth wedding anniversary on 20th November. It was on such a rare ocation, though well ahead of 20/11, that all the members of the yet so-far gang, their 4 children, son and daughters in-law, together with their 4 grandsons, were gathered in Sabah in September, and, on September 11, for this natural pose at the Tanjung Aru Beach. Terrance and Violet with their sons, Jonathan, Jerold and Julius, are from Singapore; Trixie and Wendel with their son, Kimo, are temporarily home from Australia; Tania, on a short planned leave from her Pensyarah work in UiTM Malacca, and, Trevor and Jennifer, being in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. The youngest member in the photograph is a 4-yearer while the oldest is a 66-coming-67 yearer! Would you be able to guess who they are? Your guess could be as good as anybody else's.

Whose Car is Most Likely to be the next?

Do we have to be reminded of a thing like this?

From the Land Below The Wind to the Land Down Under.

It may be the largest gathering of Kadazans and others, mostly of the Jinu & Tangit Kinajil clans and associates, from Sabah, making it to Adelaide, Australia, for days before and after 17th April, 2010. They respond to Fenella's and Aaron's Australia Wedding Invitation.

TWENTY11 did indeed come for me following 20TEN

It was incredible, quite overwhelming, I mean, the social, financial, and even spiritual situations I found myself in at that time. I realized I had just taken the road bend and had just started walking down the Sixty Seventh Street, figuratively speaking. I found myself thinking hard, reverting every strain of thoughts I could muster to God. I have always thought that He is Love, He is Kindness, He is Miraculous, He is everything heavenly and earthly positive for He is God. With this core realization of God's love, I doubly confirmed my trust and hope in Him. But, I still remembered what someone had once told me that I have a suicidal tendency. It was relatively recent that pressure could not be tolerated. It was during those trying times, too, that the numerous pressures of different sizes and shapes snow-balled into a few gigantic ones. I wondered where they could be leading me to. Those are 'knots' of the 20TEN brought forward to TWENTY11. They should be loosened fast. Time, in itself and for me, gathers tight knots all along the pathway of life.
