Wow ! finally the day has arrived. We were so excited of going to the DOE the day before. I remebered how sya said " ieee syoknyer tak sabar nak tunggu besok " when we were at the equitment check nite. The equiptment check nite did not go well :) ahhah everything was kelam-kabut and i left our route-card at the chalet and abbas left his backpack as his chalet and every1 has to go back and pick them up. The bad news it i havent updated our route card and Mr. Wilkinson already asking for it :) hahah so me and kamal went back to the chalet and updated the route card in my room using the calculator and some pencils ( ape nieh ). Then we were the last group to be out of the equiptment check. And also we we're the last to arrived in the bus. Hahahaha again i left my route card at the chalet and i had to go back and take them. As usual the girls had to make-up and they we're late as well :) Okay so we're on the bus. There are some bus picutres but i took it away already.Ope was sweating like shit and so was i .. Ope even gave his buttox to sab and sab said "ope get your but off me" (this is what ope told me) 40 minutes on the bus i think and we came to the destination our 1st checkpoint. <<< 1st picture. Then we were the last group to leave the checkpoint as well. OH GOD alwa ys being the last i just realize :) hahahah. Ok so at 3 o'clock our journey begins. But before that kitorang nak gi smayang zuhur dulu but semua cam takut nak gi cari perkampungan atas tue sebab all of them we're like all indians so cam tatau. We asked some ice cream guy where can we find a surau but he said the surau is infront 2km ahead. Then las las we all went into this one malay house and prayed there :) ahhahahh its kinda funny though ope made up some joke (bodo ope) hahahah. It's nothing really ... ok so westarted our journey ...We started of taking pictures already (ahgaga poyo giler) but hey .. if we didnt not took the pictures you guys wouldnt see it on this website okay ? so then me and kamal lead the way as the navigators :). Kitorang niememang the best navigator eehehheh tak sesat tak ape we made it all thru. Ok so after jalan jalan and jalan of intense jalan we met miss jane ath the corner. Then we corss the road and met miss jane. At first miss jane said to us " so which way are u going now ? coz i tought you we're going straight just now " hahah dier nak kantoi kantoikan ktier suruh gi jalan salah .. ceit takpe navigator yang bagus tidak akan dipengaruhai oleh orang lain dan hanya mempercayai theory diri sendir hahahah. Anyway then we went on this road with LOADS of lorries coming in and coming out. When everytime when a lorry comes in, then all the habuk and dust akan berkepulan di udara and we all had to turn our back to the side of the road coz the smoke was to thick. Then hahahah this is so funny ... sya said " ahahhah kiter dok semua align and turn our back camnieh macam satu group tengah kecing lak .. " hahahahha kelakar giler and i was laughing and i asked "haha mane bleh sya ... pumpuan mane leh kencing berdiri" hahahanan and here's the funny part, sya " eh .. boleh la .. theres a certain way of doing it" hahahahah comel betol la sya nieh .. anyway ehem .. carryon .. then we came out to this junction and as usual the navigator lead us to the right way and we all went on track.
Then come to this one section where we have to either go thru a crop of field or take the dirt road. This was quite confusing coz acording to the map .. it shows that we should get in the farm but luckily there we're some few workers there told us that we should go the other way. Memula ingatkan the pekerjer tue semua nak tipu kitorang sbeab when kita patha balik they we're all like laughing dengan sinis nyer .. so we tought we all kena tipu ar .. takpe takpe we took the risk. Then we we're all kind of tired already (padahal baru jalan sket) then after another 1km of walk i think we all had our rest under this one tree. Time nieh cam rasa letih giler tatau asal la kan .. everyone cam like baring and habiskan air semua ope lah habiskan air paling banyak and then we took some pictures and whatever we can do during the 20 min rest. Eat chocolates for enerygy and etc. So we continued our journey this time kamal take over the bag from me :) ehehheh so skang i took over moon'a bag lak coz moon kinda look pale and tired. So i ngan gentlement nyer mengangkankan beg moon and kasik moon angkat the tent. The funny thing is .. carrying the big bag is not as tiring as carrying moon's bag. I duuno why ..
ok so after the rest kitorang continue our journey and ringkaskan cerita we all met with this ostrich farm. HEHEeheh semau was like "eh eh ostrichhh .." then ade suara sumbang " mana mana ? mana wei mana " oh ya .. terlupa nak citer sebelum tueh ope cam tanye this one india dier tanye .. "ostrich farm mana ? " india "ha ???" ope " itu burung .. burung besarrrr" ahhahahaha cam lawak giler gaya ope cakap burung besar tueh then ntah ape ntah orang india tue pon bagi instruction salah ..arghh ... so at the ostrich farm semua cam tgk the ostrich .. and some of us took some pictures with the ostrich. I took a picture with the ostrich tapi memang cuak cam sial la kan. hehehehe elinaa lagi cam lambat lambat tiem nak tangkap gambar tue cam ostrich tue dah kepala dier dekat giler cam nak patuk my head je that time. ehhehhe tapi i focused on the ostrich head and got a very clear picture of it :) hahahah. So by bye ostrich we went on our journey and masuk in this one cam perkampungan ke ape ntah but ade ruma rumah la cam belum masuk hutan lagi cam kat mana ntah u guys look at the pictures ar ... after hte ostrich picture. Then kamal the navigator was at front and suddenly dier menjerit kat blakang ngan sal .. "WEI WEI KITA NAMPAK MR HANSON " eveyrone cam tak caya coz tetiba cam nampak mr hanson cam mirage ke ape nieh ? cam kitorang walk to the front cam tak jumpa gak la kan .. so we all tought kamal and sal had a mirage sebab keletihan :) then kitorang arrived at this one place cam atas bukit and the view was WOW cantek giler and takdke la panas sangat time tueh cam petang sket so cam nampak la semau benda and ada skalik nie ope saw this pokok cam survivor nye pokok then cam ha tangkap gambo tangkap gambo sebab pokok tue cam pokok survivor .. ahahha lawak giler .. then ada satu gambo nie kamal buat cam 'YEARGHHH' sampai atas bukit heheh sebab time tue semua orang ada kat bawah me and kamal dah sampai atas so kitorang took the pictures kononnyer cam jumpa the place that we're going to find la padahal its a long way to go lagi hehehehehe. Hehehhe this time cam dah jauh and deserted giler rasa cam sunyiii jer and everything was quiet except for the group lah. Heheheh then kitorang turun this one bukit kinda steep ar tapi takpe we can manage and our great navigators cam showed us the rite way when we met some t junction .. either go up the hill or go left to some small path. Some group did go up hill and had to turn back when they realize that they we're on the wrong path. Luckily we took the rite one.. then tetiba time jalan .. i said " eh ehhhh ada earthquake ... " then semau cam .. "mana mana ??" padahal it was nothing just some ground cracking saje je nak ceriakan the mood of the group hahahaha jadi entertainer lak (bak kata ope lah nieh).
Ok pastue we met another junction .. either go on the dirt road or go on masuk hutan. At first semua cam cuak giler la kan nak masuk hutan ingatkan dah salah jalan but our navigator bagus and determind to go in the hutan so we all went into the woods. huuuuuuu takut wooo takut rimau nak makan ngaum !!! anyway ... nothing much happend in the woods until mr. hanson showed him self hahahaha :) so kamal and sal wasnt havinga mirage then :). THen mr hanson actually was checking the chekcpoint and he kept on walking (at a really fast pace) and left us abandon at hte back hhahaha :) pastue .. we came across this one beutiful view sight. So semau cam jom jom tangkap gambo jom !! heheh so i took out my camera and biler semua dah siap posing baru ke nak snap .. TEET TEETT CARD FULL .. hahahah tetiba habis filem so i had to take the new 16MB Smartmedia card from sal's bag ... then time nak tukar card tue cam kelam kabutlakan sebab sebelum nie tak pernah tukar sebab asik delete je the file and pakai balik under low resolution. Ni kali ni cam pakai high resolution so kenala cam pakai banyak card. So tiem tukar card tue so i snap a picture .. huhuh ~~~ i was not in the picture waaa but i didnt post here as well :) ahhahahahaha eh .. ade post heheheh tgk la :P !! anyway then hujan renyai ranyai dah start. And we all kept on going .. then .. suddenly .. JENG JENG JENG ... i realized that sal's sim card was not in the case that i store my 16MB smart media card ... the sim card fell maybe when i was changing the card for my camera. So me sal and sya stopped and the rest kept on walking. Then i helped sal to find her simcard and then my camera wasnt covered with plastic yet and rain starting to rain heavily. So i went back and asked sya for a plastic shove it in her bag. Sya was wearing a read raincoat cam comel giler macam little red riding hood :) hehehheheheheh. (ape nieh) so i went back to sal and cari the simcard... meamng a miracle di atas tanah laterit yang merah itue berjaya juga mendetect sim card yagn kecik itu :) hehheheheh so cam lega giler and kitorang start jalan and jumpa ngan diorang. Fuhhh lega giler .. hehehehe then cam jalan jalan and walk and talk and the rain stops. Then we kept on walking then ada la nampak Group 3 left a trail saying that they we're here and kitorang pon cam lega la coz cam at least at the right track.
So after more intense walking akhirnyer kitorang sampai juger di campsite and nampak ahong yang comel tengah mandi berendam di dalam sungai ehhehhe :) well kitorang tak sampai lamabt sangat la kira on the time la and time tue semau cam dah pasang khemah and stuff so we we're the last to choose a spot heheheh takper ..everythign happens for a reason so cam kiter lambat harinie beosk pagi bleh blah awal and sampai kolej awal and bleh tido awal hahahahha :) so at the campside we started to unpack and assemble our tent semangat giler semua orang and then cari the boys cari kayu api and kitorang cari kayu besar besar giler hehehehhe and then the 'FIREGirl' datang and lite up the fiire. FIREGIRL = Sya hehehehehe :) sya memang the girl yang start ... born the fire and jaga the fire sampai la esok pagi the fire tak mati lagi :) so cam power giler sya :) tapi bes ar tgk sya main main api and jaga api cam .. ntah .. eh ( see i'm always off track in my stories) ok so then later we start to take a shower after prayers and stuff. Me ope kamal and abbas (eh rasanyer baru sebut nama abas skang nieh) hahah sorry abbas. Went to the sungai and mandi .. ahhhh sedap gielr the sungai cam very cold and sejuk nak mampos sampai when u baring in the sungai your whole body shivvers.
