Wednesday, March 05, 2008 2:58 PM
Its been so long since i last blogged. I've been wanting to do so but juz dint manage to put my mind to it. Neverthless i would very much lyk to pen down my experience @ endau! Weee~!!!!
 Recess break(22-24 Feb): Many thanks to fisherman WEISI for organising Endau Rompin. Despite the fact that many ppl pulled out last minute, it was still one of my best trips eva. Endau was beauuuutiful with splendid falls and alot of fishes to fight for every scaps of bread that was thrown into the water. The serenity was juz perfect. I needed to recharge myself, get away from the city. Im soooooooo happy that mark, zh, ws, kerui were able to share the joy with me. Well i guess i nv fail to enjoy small crowds n good company. The train ride there was quite a rush cos stupid zh came so late he almost missed us. Den on the train me n ws was trying to find our Bekok stop cos rj(the only one who went endau b4) cudnt come. After dropping off, me n goondu fiserman went to topo around to find the dorm. After calling moo moo, we manage to s  olve the mystery. Went back to the chi shop for SEDAP hokkien mee supper! The first nite's bridge in the dorm was darn fun(while kerui n gang were snoring away)! I manage to avoid being the weakest link (yet) with zh the "cai niao" (no pun intended) around to cover up for me. muahaha. But cudnt slp that nite, duno why. MArk was snoring lyk some pig, woke zh up abit with my fidgeting, ws was doing alot of duno wad on the upper deck also. But lest i got lyk 3hrs of rest. Not too bad. Next morning Mark cudnt stop complaining about how cold it was. But was it? hehe. Zh also think i was cold from the deduction of my baby curled up slping pose (same for mark can).  After lousy meehoon but a yummy prata later, we hop on the rocky 4 wheel drive to the campsite @ Lubuk Tapah. Darn it was a ROCKY ride, sudnt haf eaten so much. Cunt slp cos i was afraid i will scream myself awake when i fly n hit the roo  f of the rover. ZZZZ... Wanted to puke when we finally reach the campsite in an hr's time. But being the environmental ME and to avoid total embarrassment, i've decided that it was too much of a sin to waste the food so i juz maintain my poise. The hut was CLean and and the water was clear. it was quite heavenly liao, so every nerve in my body was looking forward to wad lies up ahead.   The first waterfall (Takah Tinggi) was COLD but not as FREEZING as the 2nd one. Notice the steepness b4 reaching the fall. Had fun trying to go up this boulder. The feeling of real rocks really beats the bouldering walls in ntu. Makes me wonder about gg Krabi... Zh looks v furni with his beanie/bandena over his head. "Abit gay" as others quoted. I shall not name names. Muahaha.. check him out in the 3rd pic below. You'll get wad i mean.  
The way up the 2nd waterfall was quite treacherous. 60° slope with a dayback that i kop from kerui (good buddies must share load theory), i almost wanted to die. Ws @ the back kip wanting to take over but i insisted on reaching the top in the same state as i come. Yippie it was a super downslope b4 reaching the 2nd waterfall (Takah Pandan). The fall was relatively smaller than the first n the water was bone rackingly cold. But boh song that after all that upslope dun go down the water so the brave princess, me n ws manage to capture a(n ugly) shot in the water. We actually took a diff route back but it was fun nevertheless.
 
Thou shall not touch too much on dinner esp we had so much food leftover. But good job kr,ws n zh for taking over the stoves. Joo i miss ur cooking!! And i miss having dose non-fussy poopheads lyk tungboy, gary, munir, yaya etc who juz eats wadeva that comes. aLways manage to clear all stocks @ the end of the day. I LYK. haha.. nitetime everybody too tired to go c the guide teach us how to spear the fishes so it was bathe and BRIDGE! This time i was the weakest link!! Cudnt remember my partner, dint oberserve the cards, bad decisions. hahaha crappy loh can~ Cudnt slp again. zzz had nitemares in fact. The next day all woke up late so dint had time to cook (yippe!) and ate at the shop by the train station again. Quite grumpy in the morning and DL with ppl who dun eat this dun eat that but eat sth dat looks nice. IRRITATED. Even more chui when i kana trashed again on the train ride back to singapore. I SUCK AT Bridge!!! MUST PRACTISE MORE. muahaha.. Princess K calls us the "bridging freaks" cos we play wheneva we can~
  Back in JB, the dang gui ya was delicious. Unfortunately for zh, ws n mark who were lao-sai-ing that nite, i was fine. Muahahahaaa mark says my tummy is a monster. But i guess im too used to LS-ing so this time i was spared the agony. hehe.. Endau Rox! Totally dint understand why the review for this place was so bad last time. haha muz be the ppl leading~~ Oh i wish the rest of u yr 4s/ final years cud be there too.. +rj+tung.
Good times r rare but im lucky to have more den a few Labels: recharging my soul
