Great Hiking Experience

On the 21st of December 2009, I went hiking with a bunch of friends at Bukit Melawati/Bukit Tabur. My sister asked me one day whether I would like to go hiking. Then I gave it a thought and think that it is not such a bad idea to occupy my long term sem break with such adventurous sport. Furthermore I love adventurous activities, hence I thought, why not give it a try??

Well, I started asking a few of my friends and they agreed to come along. I got so excited and I was looking forward to this. We changed the hiking date quite a number of times to cope up with everyone's tight schedule. The ones involved were:

1. Mong
2. Tammy jie jie
3. Mellissa
4. DG
5. Ah Wen
6. Wei Di
7. ME

Actually before asking them and getting them to agree on this trip, I was a little not so confident on getting them to come as not all are from KL except me and sis. But, they were all very sporting and are willing to come along with me on this trip and I bet they did not regret on this too as it was really a LIFE YEARNING EXPERIENCE!!

Firstly, we got up as early as 5.00am in the morning to get prepared for everything and departed home (cheryl's hse) at 6.30am..

We drove to 7-11 and get some necessary items and go on with our journey towards bukit melawati. I am the driver of course!! *proud to be one* =p

We reached the foothill and parked somewhere at the cornering of the road. Initially we wanted to park nearer to the entrance, but a tree branch fell off and blocked 3/4 of the road. Only a kancil can passby. Therefore we need to walk up further to reach the entrance. Well is ok..take it as warming up before climbing the hill =)

walking towards the entrance

Then our journey up the hill began.. It is about a 45minute - 1 hour walk up the hill.

Hmm we havent even start climbing any hills yet, and it was so tiring already..so we took our first break before starting the adventurous part climbing up the hill.

sis felt a little drowsy ady so had to stop for chocolate break =)

After munching on a few pieces of chocolate, we were ready to continue our jouney.

UP, UP, UP we went!!

And here we were at our first peak! =)

So happy to be at the peak, thinking that we were close to finishing already, but little did we knew that there were actually many other peaks more to go... fuhh.... Well...no worries GOGOGO!! the spirit is still high up withing ourselves~~

Hiking up like a spiderwoman!! hehehe =p

Wei Di fell in love with the rocks =D well, trully a Geologist

posting for pictures at almost every peak

We were actually climbing a hill which separates the city and the jungle. Therefore we were in the middle =) How to be in the city and the jungle at the same time? check this out!!

This is the city on my right

and this is part of the jungle on my left

We experienced such beautiful sceneries and many marvelous and breathtaking views along the hike. It was almost unbelievable that we were up there seeing all those =) I just can't believe my eyes

Is us..conquering every part of the hill!! =)

The most challenging part of the hike!! We got to use the help of the rope to get down.. Is like abseiling =)

WEEEeeeeee....down i come!! =)

The 2nd most challenging part of the hike =) Have to hug the big rock up there which shaped like a cone to get over. Fuh..really not a very good suggestion for acrophobics =p


I am on the top of the world!!! =) woohooo

Lying on the cliff...once turn our body or accidentally shift a little, then is bye bye...down we go rolling......

This should be the highest peak of all as there are soft moss all over the ground.

It felt so like in avatar and you will never feel as though that this is actually KL. The soft and slightly moist/cooling moss was soo comfortable after a long and rough hike up the hill..It was so comforting sitting on it just like sitting on the best quality carpet one can ever get =p

Coming down the mountain was more to jungle trekking. It was not so much fun as going up which is the opposite of what I thought so at first.

FINALLY!! here we are at the end of the hill...We DID IT!! we successfully hike the mountain in like almost 5hours =p haha

YES....this is the hill we conquered...Yup we went from peak to peak and down we came =)

The mighty ladies present on that day: Mel, Me, Tammy

The armstrong guys present that day: DG, Wei Di, Ah Wen, Mong

Overall, our hike was actually 1/4 brisk walking up the hill, 1/4 rock climbing, 1/4 abseiling, 1/4 jungle trekking =p

Dun play play, we uni students can do more than just studying!! =)

It was really a fun and memorable hike!! Through this trip, I even had a closer bond with my uni mates as we gone through hardship, tough times and laughter together =) I really did the right thing by inviting them along as I really had a WONDERFUL time!! ^^ I hope they too had as much fun as me =D

After a long and tired hike, we went and celebrate our victory by treating ourselves a scrumptious seafood meal with cooling coconut water at Air Panas ^^

And that is all on our hike!! =) TQ for all those who were present on that day and thanks for making my day =) Love you all lotzz!!!

Bday celebration!!

Wah seems like it has been ages since i last updated my blog. I think i even forgot of its existense =p hehe

Hmm now that im back in KL for my mid sem BREAK...i will have time to blog again =p

Well, I just wanna express my feelings for my bday celebration this year...

I really had a real lot of fun this year...

It was really the best bday so far...

I celebrated like 3 times bday in UTP this year =p

My first bday celebration was on the 6th Sept 09 where as usual, im having my weekly Talent search Hicom meeting on every Sunday night...


The meeting that night was surprisingly long... I think we spent bout 3 hours in the meeting room.

(To cut the story short)
During the meeting, Johnny(PD, Talent Search 09') suddenly dashed out of the room for no reason...All of us looked at each other clueless on what was he trying to do...So we just go on with the meeting without him...Then few minutes later, he came in with a cake in his hand, with all the candles lit...

Everyone gazed at him wondering whose bday cake was it and i was also clueless. I skimmed through every faces around the table to refresh myself on whose bday is it that day...But then i can't recall of anyone's bday on that day or close to that..

I then wondered to myself...hmm how come the meeting is not on thurs(10 sept) then there will be a bday celebration for me too...

However nvr have i expected it to be, the bday cake is actually for me...

I was like so totally shocked, happy and TOUCHED to hear that...the PD actually do know when is my bday and even take the effort to celebrate it for me...

I almost cried in joy however i pulled back my tears and resisted it from rolling down my cheeks..*hehe*

Then we resume over meeting again...how random =p

A pic of me and the cake =)

Thx to all HODs , AHODs, HICOMs and PD of talent search 09!!! Thanks Robert also for buying the cake all the way from Ipoh... =p

There were another birthday celebration for me on the 8th Sept...

I rmb it was just after SP test and my friends suggested to celebrate for our hardwork in Kg Bali and also as an early Bday celebration for me..Actually I was kinda sleepy and lazy, but i still agreed to it since they wanted to celebrate for me...*so thoughtful of them*

So off we went to Kg Bali...

Reached there, ordered food and we chat a little.. I was actually wondering only 8 of us there...soo quiet and lonely...So i did asked Mei Foong whether they guys are coming or not...and she go on lying to me that they were all very lazy.....this and that

then she saw a big cat under a chair, and i also got attracted by it as it is really VERY HUGE....when my attention is onto the cat, suddenly there is a group of other friends at the back of me wishing me Happy Birthday with a cake in his hand...I was really startled by that....
So the whole China gang actually celebrated bday for me =p

The cake was really nice..It is purple colour..(Thx Wei Di for choosing that...really unique)

However is not fnshed as we ate quite a lot and couldn't fit the cake in..So we gave to the nx table and there were some of the talent search committee with my PD there as well...They sang another bday song for me again...

External Hard disk

Yday went to low yat and just got myself an External Hard Disk...fuh...so totally broke ady now...

I bought a 500GB hard disk for RM320...soooo Expensive... =(

I thought I did compare prices and found the cheapest 1 already but hu knows after walking for a while i saw another 1 which is 1TB just for RM355 T.T

hmm...shudn't hv made my decision so fast... =p

but well, think on the brighter side, at least i am not super broke coz if i buy the 1TB, i might not eat for 1 month.. =p

hehe just kidding

Back Home...

I'm back home after attending 2 weeks lectures...
seems like the common influenza is invading UTP and i got chased home too =p

I am home quarantined by mom...can't go out anywhere...

However...my hope shattered into pieces as my mom dun allow me to go out of house...woowoo T.T

no more PC fair...seems like staying in UTP and at home makes no difference...still kenot go out...=(

Ice Skating!!!

I have always love ice skating…whenever there is an outing, i will always suggest for sunway pyramid so that i can ice skate…

There is this 1 day during the sem break, i really am very excited to go ice skate…however, when i reached that place and step onto the ice, i noticed i suddenly don’t hv the mood to ice skate…

nevertheless i still went on as my fren was with me..and i dun wanna disappoint him seeing how excited was he trying to learn how to ice skate…

Just a few rounds in the ice rink, i suddenly noticed a very familiar face…very very familiar…then ahha!! is JEAN!!! my secondary school senior…however she is my mei mei(little sis) =p boy, u couldn’t imagine how happy i was to meet her..is like…my mood suddenly brightened up….

She is having her break too and we go on chatting for quite some time and managed to snap a couple of pics…really miss her lotz..and i even met her friend Michelle…a very nice girl as well…nice talking to.. =)

still waiting for some pics from her….

Lonely Saturday

It’s my first saturday here in UTP after the sem starts…
Nobody here…soo lonely..roommate went back, most of my friends went back home…

planned to skip lunch today but seems like i am munching food more if i skip my lunch….have been biting on biscuits, “kuih bahulu”, ect…

i even boiled 2 eggs and eat…coz have so many eggs left, scared spoilt…so boiled and eat…so my lunch is basically a bunch of biscuits + eggs + horlicks… huhu soo pathetic…

have been trying to read  on MOB but then always jump off to something else after reading a few sentences…so not productive at all…

counting down towards dinner….argh…stop thinking of food cheryl…you are putting on too much weight!!!

btw, 1 of my UTP friend, wei di is sicked…cannot attend class for 1 week…ppl pray for him yea ^^ =)
