back from kuching
yes i am back in singapore and am finally blogging about it.. feeling kinda lazy so i guess i'll slowly take my time, just briefly go through what happened.
day 0, reached smota at around 930pm, went to buy kopiko. haha.. no sleep all the way, boarded the bus to jb around 230, 3 in the morning. drifted off abit here and there on the bus ride, then got on the plane where i was completely zoned out. slept the entire ride. then got to st anne's, upacked some stuff and headed to mt singnai. climbing mt singnai with hardly any sleep is really taxing! plus carried a brick while doing the stations of the cross. got some stuff sorted out in my head. reached the top finally, bridge marathon after that...
day 2, we re arranged all the bricks which we brought up, which previously was one hell of a mess. really amazing work. oh the coffee there is AMAZING. can just drink and drink. come to think of it, i think coffee has something to do with constipation, cuz i didnt shit for days! haha. more bridge marathon and other carolling and line dancing practices.
day 3, head back down from mt singnai, repacked stuff at st anne's, then headed off for kampung gayu. really hesitant about the idea of staying in a kampung at first, but got quite a pleasant surprise. they have electricity, computer, tv. wow if there was warm water it would have been totally perfect, but could still do without it. durians were.heavenly. absolutely amazing.. fresh from the tree, really really good. then went around the houses carolling and telling lame jokes here and there. haha..
day 4, went around bringing christmas to the poorer houses in the kampung. told more lame jokes along the way. oh i got to sit on a bike! the age limit there is like, 16? i want.. haha. after that lunch, and we had the choice of soccer or swimming. damn i have no idea why i chose soccer. we got owned, if not for the other 3 malaysians who joined our side we would have lost like crap. heard that the river was cool, and picking fruits were lovely. headed back and showered, then had a sort of farewell party. told more lame jokes, pineapples were deelicious. just simply flavourful. more carolling after that.
day 5, had the famous kolo mee for breakfast. sure tastes good. then officially left kampung gayu, created a song titled "hotel kampung gayu". lame stuff.. went to st lucas dorm to put down our stuff, then went over to st anne's to prepare for the christmas party. tall people had a tall order. hur hur.. no complaints though. mass was hot?
day 6, had the christmas party itself. i think we managed to make it a success even though there was the initial problem of language barrier. i am turtle maker master. hahaha. more bridge. then some reflections. got more stuff sorted out. yeah..
day 7, visited orangutan place, though we didnt meet any in the end. haha, then went to this fabulous seafood restaurant. well its view was nicer than anything else, and the fact that they were playing techno stuff which was seriously old skool. haha. the veiw was quite nice, got me started on some thinking too. thanks to marianne for the pic of the stunning scenery! then went sarawak cultural village, quite an interesting place haha. skipped some stones at the river. haha.. went back to st anne's and had a mini party. whooo.
day 8, had a last mass. the homily was quite helpful for some people. then spent most of the rest of the day shopping, i bought a really cool pair of sunnies. thanks to marianne again for choosing it for me! haha. and then basically a plane ride and bus ride home. everyone looking stoned, some for good reason...
well i guess that was basically it. i had loads of fun with all u guys and girls who were there. yes smota smota! haha.. cheers to group 3, marcus, justin chan, mikel, lester, teacher paul! haha and the others who i hang around with, u all know who u guys are. yup i think im not the same person anymore. hahaha
thank you God.
