This is the story of one of the places I went when I visited my grandfather,uncle,auntie n my cousins in Sibu which is in Sarawak =].I went to see a real Iban long house with people still staying in there!!I mean how often do u get to see that?So,it all started when my uncle suggested to take us there,and just like that we were off!! And we actually get to go inside the long house,the families who stay there don't mind and they won't even charge us!!So okay,we eached there and wow it was big and of course loooong...So we went inside n one of the nice old grandma who lives there with her family offered to show us around. Okay,so the long house is made up of one looong corridor and there are doors leading to rooms where each family stays in one room.According to the old grandma,there is about 30+ families living in that long house!!There is also a sort of balcony outside n they plant fruits n vegetables so it saves cost,smart of them.They even have a river nearby so that they can collect water.So life for them is simple n relaxing.But they r not the old-fashioned people that we all think they are...they have Astro n some of them even have Astro-beyond!! Even I don't have that =X
Anyway,the most shocking thing is that in the middle of the corridor on the ceiling hangs....wait for it....a bag of SKULLS!! Yes boys n girls real live skulls!!hanging from the ceiling in full view!!Eleven skulls to be exact,I counted them.Its not as scary as u think it didn't have rotten flesh dangling from it,I mean how would the people live with the stench?Yucks..The skulls have been hanging there for about more than 50 years,interesting eh?The people there still pray to the skulls as it is their tradition.Though I have to say,even though I didn't find it pacticularly scary,my cousin sure did XD even though she's like a year older.
After that, we went inside the old gandma's "house" and we saw her grandchildren in there,one of them is actually the same age as me,and boy,she was gorgeous...Suprisingly,the room was spacious and comfortable.It had a few bedrooms,a kitchen, and even a staircase leading downstairs where there had a refrigerator and other things down there.The grandma's grandchildren were really smart!! They had a cupboard of trophy's for academic reasons.Soon after that we had to leave,but I got lots of pics to preserve the memory,but I didn't take the pictures of the skulls...I didn't think it would be right.But,I even got the girl's facebook!!So that's one of the stories from when I visited my grandfather.If I can I'll try to upload the pics =] Wow....this is the longest posts i ever did so far....hope u guys enjoyed this and thats all for now.So please continue to support me thanks =]

Respect??!!
What the damn crap is up with younger brother and sisters these days?! I mean they don't even show any dam respect for me!! My brother who is younger than me says he is older than me then says that I'm the oldest when he needs me to do his dirty work.He scolds me often and when I give it right back to him,he says that I have no right to do that.My sister is exactly the same,she pushes me and beats me and I can't even fight back because I'm suppose to be the "oldest".I mean what the hell??!!When I ask them where's the respect I deserve,they say I don't need any respect.Seriously...I mean I have scolded them and sometimes hit them as well,but everybody does that too.So don't I even get a shred of respect?They just think they can do whatever they want with me just because I don't fight back,is that it??!!Damn it!!sometimes I just can't take it....

Something that crossed my mind...
You know how people sometimes say:"Life is a fairytale,life is great...."well its not!!sometimes life just sucks!!its the truth.In life, you have to make your own path,you have to fight for it,live for life!Sometimes,I dont even know if there's such a thing as destiny,and if there is,can destiny be changed?If a beggar is destined to be a beggar for the rest of his life,then can that be changed?Seriously...I dont know...Even so,my dad has different ideas,he says that nothing is impossible,he says that "impossible" has an "I'm"possible in it.What to you think?Anyway,these are just some things that just crossed my mind,I dont even know why I'm even typing this but whatever..
