Sarawak trip - Sarikei

A Memorable Wedding in Sarikei

Er looked so pretty... believe it or not, she did her makeup all by herself. She's a pro, think she should be a *mak andam and open up a business in the andaming. (*wedding makeup artist in Malay language)

Sudir and his brother shared their wedding

Melawa lah.. apa lagi... melawa je keje kau...

I took this picture at morning of the wedding ceremony. It was of the house's backyard. I just felt it looked awesomely classic.

Sudir's nephews.. cuteness!

A night before the wedding...

Sugar Bun. The Sugar Bun. The Exclusive Sugar Bun. Yes. You can only get them in Sarawak. I heard it was in Sabah before, but they've shut the business down. I had my breakfast, lunch and dinner there. I'm not gonna describe about the food though..someone said that people came as far as Sabah and Brunei to savour the fried chicken... they somehow tasted much more delicious than KFC (that's not what i said though).

Hey..what's that I see flowing out the side of your lips? Are you drooling now?

This picture is of just about the whole town actually. It's very itsy bitsy teeny weenie lil town.

But with its own unique breathtaking aura and vista...

Mak...? ohhh mak... timbul lah mak... Merah datang ni.....maakk..?

(dah nak start nyanyi dah...music please..ehemm)

Wahai perigi, perigi, airnya biru,

Tempat bermain, bermain, pari dan mambang,

Mohon izinkan hamba merayu ibu,

Izinkan hamba merayu ibu,

Bagi penawar, hatiku yang bimbang,

Wahai bonda, ibu kandungku.
Wahai bondaku, bondaku, si ikan kaloi,

Timbullah bonda oiii timbullah, tunjukkan diri,

Nasi melukut dengan sayur keladi,

Nasi melukut, sayur keladi,Untuk bondaku, di pagi hari,

Wahai bonda, ibu kandungku

A song lyric from the classic film Bawang Merah & Bawang Putih (red onions and garlic) starring Latifah Omar

Er: Mana?

Saint: *Tuuuu naaaaa...Tuuuuu naaaa....

Mimi: Ha..? kat sini ade ikan tuna ke?

(* Tu naa - Sabahan slang for saying tu dia / tu hah / yang itu )

Back to front: Huge, medium and small
