About

Born on 11 Jan 1989 at Keningau, Sabah where a small town which always makes people misunderstanding that we are staying on the tree.
Life is short, i am enjoying the way i am live, i don't care how people think about me and i had no time to think about how people think about me. I didn't hurt people to make my life better, that's enough.
Being tourism student, I love to travel, I've always been a mad traveller and at every opportunity I strive to get out there and travel the world seeking to experience different cultures. I never wanted to forget any of my memories from travelling so I started this blog, where I could share my adventures and photos with my friends and family. Unfortunately for my blog, I spend too much time away and don’t have the time I would like to keep it as updated as I could do.

The floor was decorated in parks, using the woods as Acapu regional and yellow stick.
Concert hall
The theater originally had 1,100 seats, to 900 today. The chairs retain the style of the time in wood and straw to the appropriate climate. The balustrade is all in English iron gold leaf. The ceiling fresco painting presents central elements of Greco-Roman mythology an allusion to the God Apollo leading the Goddess Aphrodite and the Muses of the arts Amazônia.
The center of the ceiling has been adapted to American bronze chandelier that replaced a large fan that helped mitigate the heat. On the walls, floral, paintings mimic wallpaper. The lining of the boxes were painted obeying the social hierarchy of the time, for the first grade were used the following locations: balcony, the audience, friezes, cabins and procênios 1st order, for the 2nd class: galleries, boxes and procênios 2nd order and for 3rd class paradise.

Because there's controversy in the standard neoclassical Italian: rule columns in pairs and odd entries, but instead opened with seven columns and six entries. In the reform of 1905 was the pediment retreated, removing a column and an entry placed medallions to decorate the muses who represent the arts, comedy, poetry, music and tragedy, the dance side.
