CY@CY Says Welcome to my dreamscape. Where a Lim is also a Ling.

I would rank “Stairway To Heaven” by English rock band Led Zepellin as my No.1 favorite rock song. It was released in late 1971 when I was in Form 2 at Kai Chung Middle School in Binatang but I was not a fan of rock music at that time. The song became my favourite when I was in Canada as ...

Ais kacang stalls are springing up all over Miri. I suspect the hot weather has something to do with it. And of course a lot of people are jumping on the bandwagon when they see some ais kacang stalls doing a roaring business. It is a cash business that requires small startup capital. Ais kacang or ice kacang, popularly known ...

It was about a year ago that I last watched a movie in the cinema and that was at GSC. Though it opened for business last year, I have not patronized TGV Cinemas at the Permaisuri Imperial City Mall until today when I went to watch Jurassic World. Grossing $204.6 million dollars during opening weekend, Jurassic World became the 2nd ...

With a lot of free time on my hands today, I dropped in the bookstore to browse around the store. The store carries a wide range of books and stationery but it is unlikely that you will ...

June 6, 2015 After taking our complimentary breakfast at Bamboo House in Premier Hotel, my wife and I waited for my mother-in-law and our niece Wan Ying who were staying with my wife’s cousin. We left Sibu by taxi at about 8.40 am and arrived in Bintangor at 9.30 am. Before this trip, I had googled to see if there ...
