Suggestion: For reading pleasures, wait for all the pictures to load, grab your coffee, and then come back and read. The pictures are way to big I know, sorry =)
So yeah, this post is a recapitulation[spelled correct?] on the whole of October and some of this month.
Ever since PMR and sickness and online games, I guess I need to update myself with what has pass.
We’ll start with PMR party @ Chai’s residence.
It was particularly refreshing as it was held the night we finished the war. Had loads of cheap, simple fun I always look forward to =)
They gave us 5 minutes to express and release all the pressure and stress we had, with snow sprays, party strings, bursting balloons, blowing horns, shouting like an ape, the seniors joined along too but there were some people who felt intimidated and scared by our un-earthly act haha, who cares?
Had games games and games after that, which where prepared by Randall, really awesome!
Vicky made this potato thingy which she intended it to become potato salad, which in the end turned out as some really good mashed potatoes with bacon and some meat =D awesome magic Vic!
That was all I remember until I fell sick the next morning, hiaz =)
Moving On
Had awesome futsal session with the buddies, had a bad “ball to the ball” crash architectured by Mr.Gan, and came home feeling loya and sick…
The event of the month:
Welcome to Taiping
the land which sounds very familiar but nonetheless felt very alien there.
the food there was really funny. didn’t enjoy my breakfast much, gave Mark my Wan Tan Mee, a sip on my over-manis Iced Milo, and we’re off to the bottom of Maxwell Hill more commonly known as Bukit Larut.
Say ” Maxwell Heeeel ” !!
So after discussing who to hit the tracks and who to roll with the jeeps, we kick-started our way with confidence and freshness of the polluted air.
woo! off-road~
for now I will let the pictures blog for me.
things may seem very straight here, I tell you, IT’S NOT!
we had to track through really steep and narrow paths with only ropes as supports.
this young man here was the toughest among all of us =) serious!
anyway, at this point, there were 2 youths that gave up the off-road and wanted to hitch a ride up, so we went back to the roads, and started tracking on the roads, which were very monotonious, boring, and taxing.
SO DETOUR!
from here, we’re about 4 hours up =)
a groupie before we hit the roads.
10 minutes up the boring roads, and guess what we found, water!!
really cool water, we washed our faces with it, and also refilled our bottles here.
but according to Dr. Hock Soon, the water contains a lot of microorganisms and parasite which can be harmful.
Duh…. Don’t see me getting symptoms of hepatitis now huh?
So we splitted into 2 groups later, the faster ones were Uncle Mok, Uncle Hock Soon, Mark, John, and myself.
We reached to our “checkpoint” @ the tea garden, in which I found no signs of tea or free tea samples, I was quite disappointed.
I thought, at this point we’ve reached the place, but really, we are 2 hours from destination.
And 1 hour up, you guys tell me the story, I’ve got this cramp and all, I was troublesome, I know.
But I want to forget about that already, dummy up. Let’s GO!
In the huge place we stayed, there was a Triple-Decker in every room. I slept on the lowest peg as my legs were still very aching.
You don’t mess with the Zach Siow.
This is a picture without Andrew.
Now let me show you a picture with Andrew….
Slow…..
Slow….
Steady….
there you go!
[i bet now you're scrolling up and down grinning]
…….ANYWAY………
Good Morning Mr. & Mrs. Lee! the caretaker of the place.
On my way down~~
on my right is the doctor that taught me “The Way of Reversing-Cramps”
And that should sum up my trip to Taiping. =)
Other than that, we have a successful-broken surprise party for Joel Paul.
I feel bad, but I guess the church youths are already immune to outbreak of secrets and surprises.
Erm… cut the secrets part. =)
So my current life revolves around DotA, CoD 4, Red Alert 3[here I come], some football, and weekend basketball.
I’m going off to Singapore in 2 weeks, and I found out that the money I kept in my secret hiding-money book was gone. Of course I’m sad. I will have no money to get my gadgets there.
I’m left with RM 400 for 2 months and 2 trips overseas. Father, Father I need cash!
But I am looking forward =)
there you go, my eventful month-frshthzch.
