I spent 2 years as a young student in Halifax, Yorkshire many many years ago(now just a vague but wonderful memory). Halifax is straddled within the Pennines and the Yorkshire moors is the famous setting for Emily Bronte's only novel,the Wuthering Heights. Its brooding atmosphere bodes well for any dark stories setting i presume. Why this sudden remembrance of such a place that can bring such a real melancholy feeling?
Well i was earlier in this makeshift bus or truck that went up the Borneo Heights that is straddled within the Penrissen range. As the dark clouds descends on us, a brooding outlook appears within sight as the truck made its way up the steep hill and somehow Wuthering Heights comes to my mind. Ha of course Borneo Heights is a far cry from the Yorkshire Moors but hey the place will certainly make one good setting for a Sarawakian epic novel.
This was the second time i came to this place and surprisingly i have noted many good changes and it certainly has very positive vibes. It can never be as serenely beautiful as the Yorkshire Mooors but am sure with more upgrades on its various walks ,Borneo Heights will create and enhance its own charm.
