hmm kai is off to ipoh again so i'm his stand-in, maybe i'll fill in some details on his trip to sabah.
his flight to sabah was delayed and after they checked in and they wasted a total of 2 hrs.
reached the camp site at abt 7pm (wow so late).
grp members include SJI BBSS Springfield.
total of the 48 pple in which one third are girls (he says this is supposed to be unexpected).
first expedition: jungle trekking (eeeew)
very tiring, he was abandoned by the Sji pple and had to stay with the others to chat and burn bamboos. (yewliang watch out!)
went to a village for some cultural exchange thingey.
did the bamboo pole and 'mating' (??!!) dance.
ate chilli and he cried cause its simply too hot to take. haha loser!
next was sailing expedition.
it was quite slack cause the instrutors did everything and he was playing murderer. LOLS.
slept under the stars ((:
next morning kai missed the sunrise but swam at the lagoon and the sky was beautiful.
final expedition: Kota Kinabula (heh heh i did learn abt this mountain in geography)
highest mountain in SEA took 2 long days to scale up and down the mountain whereas the record time was like 2hrs and 40mins (??!!).
he then reached the peak at like umm.. 5.15 am (i was still slping VERY souundly at this time).
could not catch the sunrise AGAIN cause the clouds were right beside him and the clouds that we see are way below him.
then kai carelessly injured his right ankle from the start of the descending which resulted to the left knee and back injury.
OUCH.
back at camp some guys suffered from altitude mountain sickness (?).
kai's grp won all the challenges (:
cause of him (ahyoh so bhb..)
because he had the experience and strength.
flight back to sg was delayed from 9pm to 2am (once again i was slping very very very soundly at this time).
then next day had competition.
can you imagine someone as crazy as him would attend competition the next day?!
how damn dedicated.
well at least he won a medal ((:
rach.
