BACK DATE: This post should be posted 2 weeks ago.
I moved to another place 2 days before I flew off for my Sabah trip. To be exact, it’s just the west coast of Sabah – the capital, Kota Kinabalu.
Comment: FUN FUN FUN!
It’s really fun to go on trip with people you know since forever. For you all know what is on each other’s mind. For you know that they won’t feel offended if you say something when you mean it as joke or even just passing remark. For you all know each other’s ‘pattern' so well. For it brings back old memories of school, and the trip add on to new memories!
As a old Chinese saying, 3 women equals to 1 market. There were 8 of us in the trip. Please use your imagination on how majestic the scene was when all of us hyper and talk and talk and TALK. So we have new name. Proudly present to you: the 800 crows! (1 person = 100 crows)
It was definitely unintentionally to attract attention BUT somewhat we did. Firstly we all don’t have those athlete face that we can conquer the highest mountain at South East Asia. Secondly, we can still talk non-stop even if we were dehydrated, tired, and having muscle ache all over. Thidly, all of us are cute. ;p
We enjoyed. We make fun of out very timid guide. We walked 6 hours and posed and took pictures along the way up to Laban Rata. We made conversations with other mountain climbers and the local mountain guides. We pissed that ang moh girl with our non-stop conversation (well, it was STILL early to sleep). We openly make cute guys who passed by our eye-candy. We applied counterpain/ salonpass bandage for each other. We shivered in cold together. We were sleepy/ tired but encouraged each other to get to the summit. We shared our sweets/ chocolate bar/ raisin. We missed the sunrise but we made it to the top altogether. We managed it without having boyfriends/ guy friends around us. We teased each other. We had muscle aches together. We don’t enjoy the strong wind on the top but we enjoy the height and the scenery with cloud beneath our feet. We trembled when it finally turns bright and we gathered it’s actually VERY high up there and with one wrong step you’ll say bye bye to the world. We cheered. We succeeded, and it definitely worth celebration!
(we did celebrate, of course!)
The 800 crows decided to make an effort to go somewhere annually. Crows that was left out with unforeseen reasons for this trip are encouraged to join back the troop for the next trip, tentatively to Krabi!
The photos are still unavailable as zffdijoh* yet to burn them out.
Side track 1: we walked 12km in total on the 2nd day. (to summit – way down- back to HQ). break my personal record.
Side track 2: we were so damn popular as we were recognized by another group of foreigner at Pulau Mamutik as the 2nd part of the trip.
Side track 3: I totally forgot my onions on Farm Town. All are dead when I come back to reality that fun time is always short.
It says ‘Onion Field – Gone to Waste’.
Gah, money wasted.
p/s** the crows have an official website - it's just starting up and most of us are too tied up with own work so there isn't much update. but there will be more! =)
