YOOOO everyone =D I'm back finally hahaha! and no Lu Min... I meant my annual family trip starts on 24th, not that it's our 24th one.. what I'm still young man! haha. Anyways OBS was kind of fun and I had to do a lot of tiring and interesting stuffs.. too bad I don't have any pics though. There may be some on facebook later.. not sure. We'll see =P

Anyways in OBS, was the first time I washed my own clothes.. or shoes.. or my own dishes. I can hear all of you gasping right now with eyes like O.O HAHAHAH!! no la.. I just seldom do chores. =p You know, I thought I had overpacked, but when I found out that bringing 8 shirts for a 10 day camp wasn't enough I started washing every single day. Until all our washing powder ran out. But thank god it was the last day already so we just stuffed the dirty bundle all in and went home hehe

ok so I'll post a recap of everything I did. Gonna be one looooooooong post XD

Day 1
Arrived at 2pm. Ate lunch at Marina Cove Resort(NEVER EVER eat there). Then at 2.30 I joined the rest of my group. My group or 'watch' as they call it was Berinchang. All the watches are named after mountains. For example there was Irau watch, Bubu watch, Camah watch etc. It's called a watch because they take after a ship's crew. Like in Pirates Of The Carribean, the crew is supposedly called a watch. After a short tour around OBS we had to carry our luggage up our dorms. Thank god we had the lowest dorm. Only 60 steps up. There was this dorm called Kinabalu. Freaking high up wei. Kena that dorm can die! Played some icebreakers after.

Day 2
We had to jog 3km to a place called Teluk Batik. After breakfast was some more icebreakers. A bit sien sien la the first few days. Later we did Intro to Belaying. At first I was pretty confused... was that even a word?! Looks like a malay word to me. You must always remember your ABCs during rope activities. 'A' for anchor. 'B' for belayer. 'C' for climber. Basically The climber climbs, the belayer tensions or slackens the rope for the safety of the climber, while the anchor is in case the climber falls down and is freaking heavy until the belayer can't tahan the weight =p Immediately after we were taught how to pitch a tent, do ropes and read from a map and compass. At night we were briefed on our jungle trekking activity the next day. Carrying a 10kg bag?!?!?! into the jungle!! Holy cow I thought I was gonna collapse and die halfway..

Day 3
Drizzling in the morning so we did flying fox instead of starting our trek straight away. pretty fun =) Not too scary but everybody seemed to be rotating in mid-air hahaha. After lunch started the long non-anticipated jungle trekking ><

Day4
After packing was the most difficult part... getting out. Nathaniel and I were navigators for the day. After getting our bearings(we had to pass 4 peaks before coming out of the jungle), we began our journey. Lunch was bread and sardines on peak 2. We had to wuickly eat and ciao coz bees started coming and chasing Nathaniel all around lol!! We came out of the jungle at 3.30pm. 6 and a half hours. Not a record but not too bad either. Apparently Irau had gotten lost. Some dude kena-ed 16 leech bites O.o and one of my freinds, Jer Venn, literally rolled down a hill and her head almost hit a big rock. Luckily her leg got caught in one of the branches so she stopped rolling just right before the huge rock. Scary.. Night time was singing time for us. Had to practise for our BBQ night.

Day5
After intro to belaying, now was time for the second rope course. It was really quite tiring and challenging for us girls. Guys did okay. One of my friends from Irau did a split in mid-air when going through the bloody tayars.. I can already imagine her pain.. ugh.. After lunch we built a raft with some pipes, empty drums and rope. We had to put our rope skills to the test haha! clove hitch followed by squarelashing to secure the pipes, and finally a clove hitch and some dead knots to end it. The raft kind of worked.. but I guess there were too many people on board coz the drums kept coming out and we ended up swimming in the sea instead XD damn fun!! haha

Day6
Solo camping day. Solo camping?!?! 24 hours without human contact. having to pitch up your own tent and cook your own fire. Do nothing but stare at the sky and monkeys for 24 hours. Okay so maybe we did sneak around and visit each other often XP and only one baby monkey visited me.. and at night instead of being scared of ghosts, we heard karaoke and mat rempits... lol!! it doesn't sound so scary now does it? hahaha. But yeah, I did have to pitch up my own tent, start my own fire and almost got my water bottle and mosquito repellant stolen by a baby monkey. Solo camping was quite an experience. I refused to cook anything. My planw as to eat fruits for lunch and canned sardines for dinner. But at night I saw everyone making a fire, so I decided to try. I used up 7/10 matches before I gave up. The instructor then came round and taught me how to make one. All I had to do was keep the fire going while opening the canned sardines. halfway through I had to pee. Holy cow. One hand was chucking wood into the fire while my mouth was blowing profusely. My other hand was pulling my pants down and i was trying to concentrate on peeing. not easy I tell you. At the same time I was praying nobody would come around and witness that...

Day7
Trek back to dorms was short and we were all very happy!!! Finally... solo camping was over wahahahaha. After resting and lunch, we learnt how to kayak, how to capsize and finally how to save someone who has capsized. At night was our briefing for our kayakking expedition the next day.

Day8
Kayakking expedition to Pulau pangkor took approximately 1 and a half hours. Not bad. My kayak partner was Matthew. All the girls had to pair up with a guy, unless you think your hands super strong and can tahan so long =X Lunch was awesome. We ate burgers made by chef Daniel lol! After lunch we did repelling aka abscaling. It was pretty fun yet scary at the same time. Not tiring fortunately. Dinner was fried rice =D Best food throughout the whole camp.

Day9
We kayakked back to OBS. This time it only took an hour because we weren't fighting the currents anymore. The day was mostly spent thinking up our presentation for our BBQ night. We ended up singing the liverpool song, with changing the lyrics here and there. for example, instead of you will never walk alone. We chnaged it to 'You will never TREK alone'. So at night we ate BBQ and slept at 2am XD

Day10
Closing ceremony. Bought some shirts and a cap as souvenirs. Dad came to fetch at 11am. We drove to Ipoh to eat.... and went home..... safe and sound. hahaha. =)

Heyy!! I am soooo bored at home. There's nothing much to do... I'm downloading gossip girl so i can watch it... I think gossip girl wasn't very bad... but my sis(tze ying) hates it. She said the show is full of b*tches... Hahaha. Can u guys recommend some drama series???

Oh, and i just cut my hair today.... There's this saloon near my hse called Trio Hair Studio. They have this promotion going on called lunch rush. It costs Rm38 for wash, blow and cut. Quite cheap.. My sis n I went to the saloon. It was the quitest saloon i hv ever been. We were the only customers. Probably that's y they had a promotion. I had my hair cut till shoulder length n i looked weird. Somehow i look abit diff in the pic. I think i might stay at home for a few days until my hair grows longer. Hahha.

I just received a letter from my college today... Orientation day is just 20days away... Uh oh.. i hvn buy my textbooks yet.. I hope college is gonna be ok... I'm dropping all my science subjects. Taking economics, accounting n legal studies. Hope that i made the right decisions... I dun think my future occupation is going to be related to science.

My elder sis kept telling me that she wants a poodle (is that how u spell it??). My parents were like what for u want a dog?? Y not u just use the money u spend on a dog on a human instead?? My mum said it's not like a dog can repay u... The way she said about having dogs was like having a disaster. U have to wash it, feed it then they often drop their fur... My dad said some ppl want to have a dog because when u scold them they wont fight back. Really??

I gtg now.. Will update bout myself later... Byee~~~
