i am back! and the trip was
ammaaaazzziiinnngg. its wayyyy better than base camp in berakas. although, the thing about this trip that i wasnt that fond of was that most of the students that went were chinese or half chinese. so there was alot of chinese going on. got kind of blur at times. haha. but everyone was reaaall friendly. made new friends. it was just great!
so the first night in kuching, we stayed in
telang usan. its wasnt a 5star hotel or anything like that. it was a 60RM per night room. our tv didnt work. the radio only had 2 channels. and we had to share 2 single beds among us 4 brunei gurls. thats not even the worst part. so mr.panai picked us up from the airport and just dropped us off at the hotel. we could do anything we would until the next afternoon at 3pm, which was when the bus would arrive and send all of us 63 students to damai cultural village. we decided to just walk around and get dinner. halfway walking, it started raining heavily and we got stranded at this building infront of
AHA CAFE. how ironic was that? ahaha. so waited for the rain to stop, but it just wouldnt. stayed stranded for 30-45mins. then
Jo decided to call her uncle and pick us up. thank god he did. we to kfc and got ourselves a variety bucket. we ate in a circle in our room all 5 of us while christmas songs were playing on the radio. it was funnyyy.
next morning, met all the other students that were going with us. we introduced ouselves said hi, where you from and all that. went to
damai using a yellow school bus, which was my very first time on. haha. the cultural place was just breathtaking. us girls and a few dudes were staying at the
iban longhouse. while the rest of the guys stayed at the melanau longhouse. the compound was niceee, different type of housing.
stayed there for 4 days 3nights. we start of each day with the morning exercise at 7am and the day ends at about 10pm. first morning i woke up at 530am. gillaa, awal ahh? cus i just didnt wanna queue up to take a shower. it wass freeezzing btw. 2nd morning woke up at 630. 3rd morning i didnt even bother to wake up until breakfast at 8. i skipped the morning exercise. haha =p cus that last night, i didnt sleep at all. only started sleeping when everyone started to wake up. its tradition to not sleep on the last night of camp. so that night, was a VERRYY VEERRYY
CRAAZZYY night! like seriously! me, prash, sean and rida were playing cards aaalll nigghtt long. rida can laugh NONSTOP. its hilarious. me + her = alot of extremely loud laughter. prash was the dealer of poker and gave me and rida nicknames; me- bonda, rida - bondy.because of james bond. get it? haha. and sean? nada. haha. sean kept losing it was caaliii. it was always me and rida in the finals and rida just kept on winning~ if you guys were there, you would know how FUNNEHH the whole night wass. gillaa gilaaa
the first night, everyone was split into groups and the one i was in was called
SAKURA. the last night, had bbq dinner and performance night by each team. ill try to upload em at multiply if i have the time. pictures too. and before our classes of leadership skills started, we had to sing 4 different songs; i have a dream, my friend, and 2 malaysia songs. at first i was a bit like WTF? but then you get the hang of it and everyone was just having a blast singing and dancing and everything. ill try to upload that on too soon.
i would continue rambling about the 6days trip, but its just TOO much. haha. but seriously, it was
soo much fun. and i miss it already like crazy! first day back, and already my mum is yelling. urgghh.
