Wednesday, December 27th, 2006

hey all!!! wats cookin!!! hehe..ok dat was very fake…n e way..let’s get down to buisness…this is the blog bout my camping xperience day 3.u’ll notice that it’s more than a month and only now im writing bout his,,,well dats becoz i hardly have free time.. ok well here it goes…

DAY 3(final day)

it was very late the previous when we went to sleep…but no matter wat..i still ended up waking up early..i had a sleepless nite(all because i was literally sleepin in a hole in the ground!!!) but it was oklah…hehe..it was bout 7.00am when i woke up but this time i decided to laze around and wait until everyone was up and only then i went to wash up…in the mean time…while waiting for my frens to wake up…i was just lazin around and talkin crap with some of my frens…(kanthan,tilak anne..and i cant really remember who else…) so when everyone was ready..we started breakfast..we din want to dirty many plates and go to the river and wash all the plates which was very tedious…so we used some mass-cans and cooked breakfast…hehe…nothing much lar…we just made some french toast since we were all in the lazy mood…so we all ate and then lazed around for a bit more…we all decided that before we start to pack things up…(as in perform some heavy duty work and leave the place as to how it was when we got thr)..we decided to have a little ‘ rinse’ in the river…which turned out to be a huge BLAST..the water this time was exceptionally freezing…and the current was extremely fast..u cud have easily drifted away…juz like how katryn’s dove drifted away from kanthan’s pocket…haha so we all had a good time coz this time,every one was in the ‘mood’ and everyone was having a good time which made others have a good time too…all in all,it was a good and memorable time for all of us..and then…we went to dry ourselves and then started our work…firstly we had to ‘evacuate’ our stuff and lay it on a fly sheet…including all the kitchen utensils and metal poles and lots more…then we strted to wash the sheets and folded the tents and looked for pegs in case we left out some..and then, after bout 1 and a half hours…we were done and good to go..but thr was something that turned our eye to one thing………..SCORPION!!!! ok ok ..im exagerating…it was only a tiny scorpion as big my middle finger…but it was damn swift…u cud see it’s tail jerking up and down……but then we got bored of looking at it…so we left..crossed the shakey bridge for one last time and really shook it just to keep it in our mind…and then we waited for a while to get asigned to our cars ..anne’s cars …to go home ..

my fren and i got tilak ne’s car…..he drove the slowest among uncle and jegan ne…wonder why….n e way..there was a drive-in mcDonalds and we decided to buy some vanilla milkshake..but tough luck!!!!! there was no milkshake..so we din have anything…haish…but thr was a catch…before we post our order, anne said that he was gonna burn down that building if they din have it…and me,being the ‘big mouth’ (kidding).dared him to do that…so he…just to crack a joke,(i noe him like a book…sort of) pretended to find for a lighter..but of coz…thr wasnt any…DUH!!! hahahahaha….since dat day…my fren jazlyn who’s only standard 5 kept bugging to burn down that building…hehe…she’s really cute lah…anyway…back to the topic…

so after a while (bout half an hour) we reached our pick-up point, the old tuition centre.and dats where all the magic happened….we had to bust out backs again and unload the stuff and this time, really clean up EVERY SINGLE THING… 1)all the humungus fly sheets…2)some stuff…and lastly…3) the tents…mind u, thr was a special tecnique which was applied to wash the tents inside-out.the guys(very noisy guys) including jegan ne,dexman,suraain,mr.crazi frog,and remo…stood under the tents and spun around while tilak anne sprayed water on them…they din get wet coz the tents were covering them…while they spun,they wud sing and makle crazi noises…hahahahaha that still cracks me up…the feeling was really nice…because we sort of making memories…fun and meaningful memories..haish…then bout 5.00pm,teacher and some of the gals went to a shop and they bought back some hot roti canai…and home made milo…hah….that was like heaven….roti canai never tasted that good before…thats because we were all very exhausted..and after some time of fun and joke and food…hehe…my mom came to fetch and what hapen at the centre after dat…i dun noe…

however,all i noe is dat i am very lucky to have come to this tuition centre coz every camping trip..has it’s own surprises that cant be forgotten easily…all i noe is dat..i wud do anything it takes to continue being around these people because im sure that there will be no replace for them if in any case i shud be seperated….(ok that was very clishe…but true…)

ok well…that’s the end of it…and i do hope that u guys will find some kind of interest in life that will change ur perspective towards things…and just for the record…for my frens who are the outdoor kind of ppl…if u wanna experience wat i have,u can always come with us..but of coz u must ask me first lah…and then i can ask tilak anne(tilak ne…no offense) ok well that’s bout it…

chow!!!(pls leave a comment ya…dun just read…appreciate it…haha…kidding…)

comtinuation of…camping experience…..BLAST!!!!!

Ok…so …hello again..hehe.today im rejuvenated and my fingers are all set on typing mode. Juz so u noe,this is the continuation of the previous post whr I wrote about my camping experience on the first day.in short…this is experience Day 2.

Day 2

As I said,we slept at bout 12.45 am the night b4 and bout did we have a hell of a night!! I was sleeping outside so I had to practically cover my whole body,together  with my face to make sure that no creepy crawlies might ‘walk in’ my ears,nose and god noes whr else…n e way,we,or shall I say, I woke up every one hour hour…1.30-2.30-3.30-4.30-5.30 and lastly-6.30am. then I decided not to sleep again and juz gazed at the fly sheet that was coverin us..after a while,some of my frens were up so we went to wash up and get ready for breakfast. For breakfast (Indian gals made) we had sandwiches and teacher’s trade mark milo. Most of the campers were either still in their tents and so the ‘lounge’ area was more or less empty. Then I took the advantage of ‘de-sanding’ the area. (ps: the place was not clean for 1 minute!! Sand everywhere!!) But then more ppl started helpingme clean up..( a total stranger  whom I’ve nvr met b4..one of anne’s frend…quite friendly).then we had nothing much to do…so we were just relaxing and playing UNO (as usual).

After a while, tilak anne asked us whether or not we wud want to hike up to tha falls…YES!!! OF COZ LAH!!!. All of us were so enthusiastic in actually hiking up to a waterfall…and so we packed our necessary equipments-ropes, medical kit & salt..(very importante for leeches..i was carrying..hehe), got into proper attire-shoes,tracks…and then off we went. Eventually the team broke up in to many parts. But out of nowhere, I ended up being the leader of one group. BOY!!!! U shud have been there!!! Each time we stopped to check ourselves…at least 2 of them wud have a leech on them. My sis,’naturaaly’ went HYSTERICAL… and  so did all the small kiddies. Me, being the daring one, (im not being perasan) had to practically scratch the leeches out. I din have the time to use the salt on them bcoz we were running late. We hikied and hiked and hiked …mind u,the pathway was all hillside which meant that one wrong move…and BOOM!!!   Cheranamo!!! Down u go!! That’s why we were extremely careful with our steps.. after hiking for bout 2 hours, we finally reached the rocks..it was slightly easier but complicating bcoz u had to be sure of

ur

steps.. mind u,the rocks that we were on were actually carrying an underground stream. Afta a few minutes,we reached the falls…it was magical!! We were so close to the falls. The feeling was great and all the tiredness had faded. We went in to the river and held onto the rope that tilak ne had tied across the river..the river bed was infested with sharp rocks and pebbles that kept gettinf in our way. We were in the water for bout 45 mins and then had to come out as it was time to goback to campsite and have lunch..(it was already bout 3.00pm)the journey back was slight faster and way more sliperry bcoz it rained while we were in the river. When goin down steep slopes and crossing over logs…most of us used our legs but Tharshini used a very special weapon…BUTT!! Since that we had a term goin throughout the camp…The Power Of the Mighty Butt!! Hehehehehe…whe we reached campsite,it was already tea time. As to that, we washed up in the river , played some water games and while still being dripping wet, had tea and kuih bawang. It was hot and delicious. Later, I went and had a nice ‘cold’ proper bath in the shower. It was getting really dark so we had to shine the torch in the bathroom…especially for the small kids…once me and kat got back from the toilet, nitefall had taken place. My hair was still dripping wt and so to dry it, I went on over to the BBQ  and help build up the fire. We had some mee-hun and bbq chicken and sosages for that nite. It was nice the way most of us were standinf around the bbq set and talking stories…(crapping)..later on, we all had decided to juz sit back and relax. We were all sitting down, some even lying down and juz talking talking and talking. When we got bored, we started playing games of course, murderer, uno, mafia, bluff… and lots more..after a while, it was bout 11 pm,when we started allocating who’s gonna sleep where bcoz most of us wanted to sleep outside under the canopy. Dexman, Suraain, Kat, Amreet and Me ended up sleeping in one row. All five of us were wide awake until 2.30am. we were playing weird games like ‘chop chilli’ and then we started playing with Dexman’s phone. We were watching the so called ‘Happy Tree Friends’ and listened to the ‘Italian Joke’. It was damn funny!!! Haish…then we all decided to call it a day and went to sleep. Unfortunately, I cudn’t sleep bcoz half my body was in a big hole in the ground…arghhh…

Ok well, my day ends here…btw -3rd day-I will write some other time bcoz I need to engage myself in other activities such as my homework…how pathetic..but it will do me good. Ok then c ya!!

Chow!!

camping experience…..BLAST!!!!!

Thursday, December 7th, 2006

hey all,this post is specially for my camping experience. ok ok let me cut the crap and get straight to the point.the camping experience this tym (3rd tym) was a humungus adventure!!! after 3 years of goin camping with my tuition members,this tym i succeded in inviting one of my fren to camp with me-katryn.i tel u,each tym i go camping,it’s a whole new experience and it gets better each time!!

day 1

we had to gather at the old PTUT(pusat tuisyen usaha tegas) center which is bout 3 mins walk from my hse.me,my sis and kat reached thr bout 7.15 am.the environment was absolutely typical where we helped around to load the camping equipments into the lorry.at the same time,we were makin silly jokes with each other.it was nice to meet the same camping freekos,especially meeting ppl like hema and kanthan after a year.once we loaded everything,we were set to go.the experienced campers as in the senior gal campers boarded uncle’s UNSER and it was not befor long that we took off towards our destination, Hutan Lipur Lentang,near Genting Highlands.we were the first trip to reach thr.the little ones came after that.what was my first impression…,’urm…so so different from sungai chongkak.’ Second impression…’yeah…im back in the jungle again!!!!!’ we had to walk to our camping zone from the entrance.also,we had to crass a very shaky but strong rope bridge to get to our camping spot.it was huge!!! Thr were also somefoot prints and holes digged out…anne said that thr are wild bore activities here…BIZZARE!!! Anyway,when all of us got thr,we were divided into groups,to get some work done.(ps:gals had to clean the place up,typical).but all in all,it was a fun and tyring experience.while the guys had to put up the humungus fly sheets which was gonna cover us for the nxt three days,some of the Indian gals were preparing lunch in our very own kitchen under the gazebo.meanwhile,the senior campers i.e  dexman,suraain,me,amreet,vishala,katryn(1st timer),jonathan and kanthan,including tilak ne,were indulging in the ‘Pusat Perparitan’ as in the drainage department.the guys,suraain and dexman,dig the hole,and the rest of us had to break our backs and legs to make a dam along the drain.it was FREAKIN TYRING!!! But look on the bright side, we got free skin treatment which consist of sand and pebbles and even moss which made our palms extremely soft!!! Hahaha…by lunch time,once everything was done,jegan anne and his football crew went to play some football while the rest of us were resting and having lunch.and wat lunch did we have!!! It was MIND BLOWING!!! Mind blowing as in delicious but SUPER(1000X) HOT!!!! The sambal was raging with chillies!!! My head was gonna explode!!! You noe the massive oil container,well,it was filled with plain water.me,kat,my sis,tharshini,tilak anne and rohini akka,practicaaly finished all the water in the container…I myself must’ve consumed bout 6 cups!!! Oh man!! But then ,lucky for the rest before they came back from football,the all time expert chef extraodinare,teacher,modified the sambal and made it perfect. Her cooking is amazingly amazing!! Anyway,later on in that day,it was time for us to wash up…in the river which was practically 8 feet deep and fully bedded with terribly sharp rocks! The current was whOOO!!! So damn fast that it was lucky for us that anne tied a strong string across the river and we cud hold on for dear life!! Than slowly, the day came changed to nite and e had thosai and some tasty mee for dinner.

Later on,bout 10.30 pm,we all gathered in a big round and made a circle…we were starting to play gaems,including the all time favourite ,UNO,murderer,and poison parcel.haaa!!…typical camping nite-tym experience…things were starting to heat up when tharshini had to sit on a balloon and burst it!!! Hahahahaha!!! That really cracks me up!! When it was my turn,I had to sing an English song but with a tamil slang.GOD!!! it was a total NIGHTMARE!!!!! The only song that pooped out in my head was vegra’s and arunan’s version of yogi b’s go shorty song. It was SO BLOODY EMBARRISING!!! Need I say more!! Aiyo…never again!!! Then came katryn’s turn…she had to pick a partner(me) to place a balloon in between our backs and burst it.but no mater how much we compressed it…it WUDN’T BURST!!!  She even lifted me on her back but still ntg happened. Then anne gave us the last resort..SIT!! so we had to sit on the balloon but my butt was nowhere on the balloon because I got pushed off by kat…hahahahaha…and finnaly BAM!!! It gave way…HAAH!! And slowly after that,we played more games and finnaly slept off. Me and kat had the privilege to sleep outside! It was so nice an cold!!!..hehe..n e way…that’s how the first day ended…but I knew for sure that we had much in store for us the nxrt day.haish…

Ok well that’s it for the first day..my fingers are tired…so I’ll type again tomoro…(2nd day)…bye!!
