Bak by popular demands!! u can't expect anything from a lazy ppl though.. Haha.. I'm juz a typical Rafflesian. Rafflesia r not smelly by nature, they r juz too lazy to smell nice. XDHere goes:Day 7: Sailing expetition. Woot!! Damn excited abt this. My first time sailing. Wore my "Pedal or Die: Whitewater Rafting Crew" shirt, wif my blue hand towel wrapping my head, making me looked lyk a bangla. XD Juz go to my friendster n u can c the pic ( It's only a side view). The rowing part was pretty hard for me since i'm lyk so weak. LOL. Then the sailing part i can only say 1 thing, RELAXING. Got a little of seasick, but i'm fine. I liked the scenery. The vast sea n clear blue sky. I felt lyk sleeping during the sailing expetition. Then we reached Dinawan Island, set up the tent n made the fire. I didn't sleep much on day 7. Slept only 2 hours +, done night duty.Day 8: Last day of the Sailing expetition. Row the boat bak to OBSabah base as there's no wind. It sure is tiring. Imagine rowing a boat for 2+ hours. XP My group's boat nearly capsized, but we still managed to survive the STRONG waves. Then had solo afternoon. Had some tasks to do n I sneaked off to find some of my grp mates, even though it is meant to be SOLO. That's abt all for today.Day 9: Start of Mt Kinabalu expetition!! The final expetition. All of the Outward Bounders r excited abt it, coz most of us joined the course for the Mt Kinabalu climb. We took a bus to a resort 5000 ft above sea level. Then we had free time coz the instructors said we nid to climatise ourselves first, coz it is really cold up at the summit. Reached the resort n once i stepped out of the bus, i felt i was in an air-conditionated room. It is so cooling up there at the resort. My brother is so gonna love it staying there. The dogs there loved me. Haha. At night, i lost my cool and scolded Chee Hoe, from wad Louisa had said. I guessed i have scared some of u guys. I'm sry. Spoilt my image as a cool guy. XD I'm jokingDay 10: Woke up at 4.30am to make breakfast for the whole group. It is so COLD plus it is drizzling. XD Took bus at around 7 to the Starting point of the climb. We r at 5000+ ft, climbing up to another resort at 11000 ft, which is abt 6000 ft, abt 1 n a half of Mt Ophir. It rained again while climbing up, so the route was kinda slippery. i got fed up climbing behind ____, so i went infront but i got waited for him lar. Reached the resort, it was colder up there. Shared bunk wif Clemens, Cheehoe n Sodi. Slept at 7pm...Day 11: Woke up at 12.30am. Make breakfast again. Got ready to climb to the summit. We started climbing at abt 2.30am. There's a part where i was really very scared, juz that i did not showed it. One wrong move n u can say goodbye to ur parents. I tried to remained calm in which i did. Lol. Somemore i was carrying a haversack wif a lot of water bottles, so it is freaking heavy. The climb was not difficult, the only 2 problems are the the difficulty in breathing n the coldness. Helped to keep Louisa's hands warm since her gloves were torn. Reached the summit, was very relieved, the scenery was breathtaking. It really makes my climb worth it. After some photo taking at the summit, my grp went down to the starting point n took a bus bak to OBSabah base.Day 12: Last day of the course. Really sad coz leaving le, gonna missed the instructors n my new friends. Had certificate presentation n farewell party. Then had a very rush dinner n rushed to the airport to catch the plane. Reached the airport, my worst fear came true, the queue was freaking llloooonnnngggggg...... Finally got seated n wooosssssshhhhhh........... *Fast Forward* I'm bak in Singapore!! It was already 1+am. Then went to mac wif Yi Sheng, Sodi, Fazee n Naiimah. Then go home!! Reached home at abt 3.30am.. Bathe then unpacked a little n slept at abt 5am.Yep.. That's all i can rmb. I posted some photos in my friendster account, so if u want to c, do go there. Bye..
