National day in.. M'sia??
Sunday, August 12, 2007
its 8 august.. the usual mentality would be to ransack ur wardrobe at find the nicest combi of red and white u can get from the pile of clothes u have.. which usually works out to be my Man Utd Jersey and jeans[no it aint white but u tink i care?] for me. this year however, was different..
when everyone else will be wearing red white or blue[Mj uniform], we MJ ODAC will be dressed in Orange! yea man! orange totally rox! U Garang enuf to wear it with these words emblazoned on it?
even so, no one would be there to see us wear it till we leave the college, sad ain't it.. either ways.. i reached school with bobo at 6 to do some last minute packing and to aid with the logistics stuff me and justin had to deal with. my bag became so heavy with all the additional stuff added into it including 6 1.5l bottles and a 3l water bag. which equates to 12kg of weight in pure liquid alone.. gosh.. its madness.
managed to catch up with the flag party along the way to the bus which awaited our departure.. song leng, eugene, hakim all dressed smartly in their UG uniform. i missed those days where i saluted with the rest of the unit during the observance ceremony. this would be the first i missed. yea.. its sad right.. haha..

the bus ride to tuas and eventually to Belumut is well at best well entertained.. haha.. indian poker was still on the agenda and playing it with the SSS was really fun! haha.. old times reminisced, but we didn really managed to scoop up much scandals this time round, possibly cause we don't know them well enough yet, unlike when we ODAC went up ourselves.. the trip from tuas to belumut was spent primarily actually entirely on bridging.. haha.. Mr Eric joined in too and we happily taught him but he soon stopped as he had motion sickness i think. Liying then joined us, and each and every hand she got, was either filled with in-bar cards or got paired up with someone who has in-bar cards.. gay sia.. think she lost only once throughout the whole journey..

Ecstasy! (front to back from left to right)[Bobby Andri Daniel Jonathan Ivan Me HuiLi Zahrah SeokCheng Nizam Dennis]

the whole thing was generally a repeat of what we did during our reece trip back in June. except this time i was posted with the sweeper group aka the last group. we're supposed to help those who were slower push them up to the summit. but really i tink it was more of Sai Kang.. haha.. we had to carry the bags for em and let them suck on our rations and water supply as they dried up theirs. disadvantages were many, including spending an extremely brief moment on the summit. no more than 2min spent enjoying the view and i had to go down once more as the slow group had to be the first to descend in theory that other groups will eventually catch up with us. that cost me my face in the photo with my grp on the summit. but the advantages ranged. i got to see determination, resilience written all over those with me as they took each step with sheer grit trying hard to hide the pain which showered their nerves with each step. its really an eye opener.
coming down.. we were allowed to dip ourselves into the river! and so we did.. haha.. well actually were allowed to on both days. but i went down only after the climb on the second day as i was really very tired and just need to freshen myself up.
and thank God i didn't go down on the first day.. haha
campfire had always been fun.. and still is, but its really scary when u have to sing solo. ok.. the campfire theme was of cuz national day. and we were suppose to base our skit on songs given to us, and ours was Together.. Me and Zahrah were chosen to sing solo for the verses while the rest sang the chorus.. all these done aft the skit they made of cuz.. haha
its scary really.. singing alone with the no background music to aid you.. only ur grp swaying with u and the rest of the expedition having eyes on you and listening intently as u let loose ur voice.. gosh.. scary!
aftermath of a leech being stepped.. erm.. stomped upon
Ecstasy at checkpoint 3
the journey home..


all things had to end eventually.. 3 days of escape and now its back to reality with tutorials and lecture notes gleaming down on you.. its been fun.. really.. but now its time to get serious and start this rusted engine of mine.. no more jokes.. no more play[ok maybe a little].. 6 more weeks and the clock is ticking..
