One for September...


Actually heaps of stuff has been happening, good mostly, minor bad ones. But I realise I have been awfully terrrrible at keeping this current (but that's okay, whose been reading!). "Hari Raya" resolution is to keep this current! Haha.

The most awesome thing (not to be confused with awesome day) I did in September was an afternoon spent following Marc's "girlfriend" Juliana and her baby girl (big pic above).

This past two weeks was the first time Azman and his team saw this orang-utan with a baby which has yet to be named. That honour goes to the guys who first spotted the baby. Azman said he would name the kiddo "Haji" after me, to which I replied it would be cruel thing to do to the kid (as if, she would actually use the name herself!).

Anyhoo, Raya holiydays came around and Juliana and her baby are not being tracked this week so she will probally be gone by the time the guys return to the site.

By the way, that afternoon I fell down about 5 times but hey it was soft secondary forest ground.

I was also sleeping on the job....

Other (interesting) September happenings:
Freedom Film Fest in Kuching organised by Komas (and Elaine) was quite interesting as was Kuching!

Another cool thing about Sarawak was they know how to count...





Yup...September was also Malaysia's 45th year in existence and not 51st!

Aha! I've found you... I knew you must have one!

Juliana's definitely a very cool orangutan, but was it 5 times you fell over or can we add a few zeros onto the end of that?! :P
