&BABY I'M BACK!
&i lost my voice.
Omg. Perak trip was the bomb! I wanna go back so bad.
300bucks not to waste. Worth every cent of it.
& I was the one who didnt really wanna go at first. Hahs.
Euphoria is on high! ;D
STATEMENT OF THE YEAR: I AM ANOREXIC.
Lol. (inside joke.)
Day 1
Had to wake up at around 5. Cabbed to school. The driver was friendly. He told me of how he was goodlooking and how girls were obsessing over him then and stuff. Lol.
Reached school. Sat with platoonmates and ma'ams. And esther! Thanks for sending us off everyone! (: Then, the bus came. And off we were. 8hours away or so to Gopeng, Perak.
Long bus ride, yeah? Started off singing songs from phones (we were pretty noisy), yo momma jokes &snacking away. Bad way to start off the holidays. Fatfat. Slept a few times after eating. Pig. Stopped at Yong Peng, bought food &toothbrush cause I forgot to bring mine, back on the bus, stopped at KFC, bought more food, back on the bus, stopped somewhere for lunch, back on the bus and finally, Rumah Rehat Adeline, on a highland in Perak, where we spent our 3day trip.
By the time we reached there, it was about 4? 6? Bad weather. So we slacked, showered, had dinner. Night walk was postponed to the next day but we had our treasure hunt where The Five, my group secured 3rd place. Our prize: Food. Omg.
We ended the night with supper. Aha. But before that, we sang with our instructors, Max &Tarts. They played the guitar &taught us this song from their homeland. Tinggi-tinggi gunung Kinabalu. Nice song that's been stuck in my head.
Bed time. Oh yea! Gaya suggested we tell ghost stories before we sleep &she was the first one to get scared. That joker. And you know what? She took the whole of the blanket that we were supposed to share. Night was freezing cold. Gosh.
Ok. End of Day 1.
Day 2
Woke up at 6+. Breakfast. There was a fly in my drink. Gaya knew about it and kept it quiet. I drank the drink, damn it.
Morning exercise lasted 5minutes. Haha! Then off we were to the river where we had white water rafting! This is so good, I tell you! Haha. There was this rapid, where it was easy for you to fall off the boat. Boomboom! Only 3 of us fell off. All of them were from my raft. I was one of them. Me, Gaya and a Part A. I thought I was gonna die and crash into some rock. Haha. It was so cool. Gaya fell off twice! Expected. Lol. Then we had body rafting. A few of us body, includin me rafted like 7-8times? You can't get sick of it.
Oh. I saw leeches for the first time. &For the people in Singapore/Italy, we got you guys rocks! There was nothing else to get, really. Nvm. It's the thought that truly matters.
Ok. Then lunch came where the food was really good. And then caving! My first time in a cave. All my life, I thought caves were nothing different from the ones in cartoons. On land, dry inside with high ceilings. Hahs. It was really cool in there. Had to crawl in small tunnels &in the water. Slid down rocks and disappear into small holes. Then they switched off the lights &we couldn't see a thing. Like seriously. Nothing at all. Freaky, but awesome. Saw cool-shaped rocks and drawings on the walls. Apparently, the cave was a hideout decades ago and the drawings were made by a group of people who planned to shoot the president. There were drawings of the president's cars, the clock that represented the time they were going to execute their plan &the word 'gun'. Oh. And there were these things that looked like crystals that grow about 1inch in 7000-8000 years. They were huge, so could you imagine how old that cave is? The wonders and miracles of the world. Mega cool.
We took a van back to the resort. One of the vans that we took to the cave hit a wild boar. Poor thing. I wasn't there so I don't really know what happened.
Night fell. Dinner. And then campfire! Sang songs. I didn't know that Ma'am could sing. She sang hero beautifully. Aisyah should've been there. Duet. (: And I didnt know that Sir &Shana, our dear platoonmate, could play the guitar! We did some African dance where we had to slap our thighs. Explains the mystery bruises that I have. &Played cherades! My group lost pretty terribly. We acted out song titles like Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, Majulah Singapura, Someday We'll know, Disenchanted, Lying Is The Most Fun A Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off. And Sir Cheng had to act our Fergalicious &The Best Damn Thing! Haha. Farny shits.
Then the Perak Night Walk! It was midnight. Very dark &there were banana trees. O.o Was hoping to see wild boars or other weird animals. But all we got to see were spiders and insects. Not lucky enough. ): The walk lasted for 1hr. We reached back at about 1am &I dozed off right away.
Day 3
The alarm at 5 was ignored by everyone. Tiziana came in to wake us up and all of us were still snoring away until about 6 or 6.30. Brushed teeth, had breakfast. And then the highlight of the trip, ABSEILING DOWN A WATERFALL! I'm gonna have a hard time trying to get over this one. It was so good. You could feel the cold water running down at your feet as you abseil. All of us wanted a second go but we lacked time and had to rush back to our sunny island soon. So boohoo. Lorry back to the resort. The lorry was really awesome! Imagine 20+ people standing on a truck, avoiding and dodging hanging branches and leaves. It was like the arcade or a video game. Nintendo Wii! Too bad this kinda thing is banned in Singapore.
We were given 10minutes to get ready and get all our backpacks back when we reached the resort. Some of us bought t-shirts from the company for 30bucks. I'm wearing it now. ;D And we left. Had a few glances back as the bus drove us away. ): Had our usual stops &finally reached Singapore at about 10.40 where I made my way home alone by bus.
Gaya's our clown. She went home with her camp bag and two other huge garbage bags filled with
We took a lot of pictures, but none was a proper one with the instructors.
We said our goodbyes improper. Rather sad. I'm gonna miss Perak.
And not forgetting the Riverbug Crew: Max, Tarts, Edward, Michelle and the other one. (I forgot her name.) [edits]It's Farah![/edits]
Max still has my spec hooks..
Next stop, Australia! I could hardly wait! ;D
Oh. &Notice that I only wrote that I showered once? Because I did. Heehes. Didn't bathe for 2 days straight. Lols.
In no order of importance whatsoever.
I love you Shana. I love you Andrea. I love you Tiziana. I love you Sherilyn Tan. I love you Sherilyn Kee. I love you Ethel. I love you Esther. I love yo Gaya. I love you Aisyah.

This is the longest post I had. Ever.
But I've got tons more to say.
Omg. Tell me if you read the whole thing. I shall thank you.
Shall end this post with the song that we learnt. (:
Tinggi-tinggi gunung Kinabalu
Tinggi lagi sayang sama kamu
Biru-biru puncak Kinabalu
Tengok dari jauh
Hati saya rindu.
p/s. pictures coming soon.
And as the years go by
I'll think of you and sigh
This is goodnight ¬ goodbye.
;D
