:)

Had dinner with Bo yesterday, and we were going thru pictures we took through out the whole Berembun trip, and now i'm just missing it all all over again.. :(

Here's a list of highlights that happened during the trip, just so i won't forget the good and bad memories of it all in years to come :)

1. I was grouped with awesome people
- Din, Chaiyok, Kiren, Bad, Ayap, Audrey, Najwa, and Izzati :)

And believe me, they're all awesome :)

Din, to me, was like the head of the group. He does dirty jokes quite a lot, and people may not take him seriously by mistake, but he's not just an empty shell alright. I believe he's been through quite a lot in life, and ive never met neone who knows that much when it comes to surviving skills, and i respect him for that :)

Chaiyok, would be the guy who taught me how to make good tea hehe. I didn't get to talk to him that much tho, but i know he's a sweetheart. You can tell :)

Ayap is my coursemate, and i'd be seeing a lot of him later lol. But i never knew he was this bubbly. I've always thought he's the quiet type who wouldn't mingle much, i was wrong :)

Kiren. Tukang masak mee goreng dari Jawa hahahaha! Ni lagi sorang, tak boleh blaa.. But most definitely a jolly fellow :)

Bad. Bad is just plain lovely.. lol He's that innocent, nice type at first sight kinda guy, but once triggered, can show one or two fangs somewhere hahaha but he's nice, and he hikes super FAST!!! oh and he appreciates beautiful earthlings and plants like i do (^^). It was a delight hiking with him, i had someone to be all excited with whenever i come across a cool looking plant :)

Audrey! I sooo admire her spirit for adventure. She just got back from a trans hiking trip a week before we went for Berembun, imagine that! I learned a lot from her as well, And somehow, she seemed like the eldest sister in character in that group when actually, she was the youngest hahaha. Macam kakak, and i respect her for that too :)

Izzati :) I see her as this girl with a huge heart, who came to make new friends :) She projects a warmness where you can help but to feel comfortable whenever you're around her. And i'd say she would be the one who accomplished the most during the trip, considering her knee condition and all. Respect babe, and i'm totally proud of you as well :)

Najwa!! ehehe believe me when i say this, if she didn't come along, I don't think i'd have even half as much fun as i did. She was there for me through it all, especially after i've sprained my ankle.. Terharu :(( hehehe

So to all of you, thaaank you soooo much for everything! And sorry sgt2 kalau ada salah silap apa2.. oh i miss Berembun sooo much.. :((

2. Air Terjun Cemerong

The first time i sat my eyes on this waterfall was in the bus, on our way to the recreational center. At that time, i thought it seemed small hahaha coz we were from a distance, and considering the optical illusion effect, yadayadayada.. But when we actually got there, masyaAllah... It was, by far, the largest waterfall i've seen, LIVE. Boleh nangis kot.. But believe me, this was not the best scene of the trip. 2nd best, perhaps. Ha, ada view lagi lawaaa, which was our campsite kat puncak Air terjun Langsir.. huuu.. gilaa rindu. Duduk dekat batu yang betul2 bawah air terjun tuh, rasa dia.. wow.. huhu it just fills your heart up with lost feelings.. :)

3. We do our business, naturally.. HAHAH! :P

When i first heard that there weren't gonna be any real toilets, it got me all nervous. No, i wasn't afraid about it not being hygienic, but more of me not doing it right, and get the 'product' (HAHAHA) on to unwanted places. Lagi kene baju yg stock limited tuh.. aishh risau weyhh.. :P So i had a plan. To try my best NOT to do business hahahaha which obviously didn't work lol. Yea, i went naturale a few times hahahhaa i can't believe i'm blogging about this.. but believe me when i say, there's nothing like going all natural. feeling diaa.. puas dia.. laaain dow! hahahaha So to those first timers to be (cheyy), jangan takot2! Bedal je.. hahaha kalau tak, rugi :D

4. Kerapu masak Sweet Sour!

Haaa.. mana nak dapat kerapu sweet sour tgh2 hutan, 3/4 of a mountain? tapi dengan kami, semestinya boleh!! hahahah yea, we brought all the ingredients with us, and cooked by ourselves. Yes, dgn kualinya, periuknyaa.. gilaa best :) This was our dinner at Kem Y, courtesy to Din and Izzati :D We had nasi impit and kuah kacang for lunch, army style! haha nasi goreng the next morning, tomyam ngan nasi for dinner, and bee hoon for the next day.. Eating and enjoying the food was one thing, preparing them was another.. hahaha best laa.. :)

5. I had the best night of my life

which i've blogged about already and wish to leave it at that.. haha but seriously, i finally felt at peace with myself, like im in a certain space where it was just me and His wondrous creations surrounding me. Later that night, i laid down on the rocks coz my butt started to ache for sitting too long haha.. and i just gazed at the broad sky, glittered with blinking stars.. it was just, mesmerizing and hypnotic.. huhu.. :) I wish i had captured a picture of that moment..

6. Goodbye pink slipper

It was raining so badly that evening when we reached our campsite on top of the Langsir waterfall. I was shivering like maadd.. hahaha dah laa baru mandi sungai kat atas tuh. Once our fly and ground has been set up, Din suggested that we should go take our bath. And yes, it was still raining. But so what.. we went anyway, and port mandi tuh is on the other side of the river, so there were minor crossings here and there. Mind you that i am slippery-rocks phobic hahaha yes.. they scare me like zombies! So i was pretty slow whenever i have to walk on them, or take a leap land on them.. While taking a conditional bath haha, people started screaming to head back to the campsite. Air dah start naik!! ye la, pasal hujan lebat semuaa.. bukan takat naik je, deras pon bley tahan gakkk.. mmg i kinda panicked jugak laa.. and while i was crossing one of the smaller streams, my slipper slipped of my foot, and went down the rocks.. hmmm.. mula2 tu dekat je, and i could just grab it.. but i hesitated due to this prominent phobia of mine.. and pasrah je laa.. so yea, down the step of stones it went.. i'd like to say, happily.. hahaha najwa lost her slipper the same way, too. Minutes before i lost mine.. hahaha tak bley blaa.. :) Oh Bo's periuk floated the same way jugak the next morning, but sempat diselamatkan hahhaha sedey jugak laa slipper hilang macam tu, but it was kinda funny too in a way.. ;P Above is a picture of the route my slipper took as it went down the waters hahaha :P

7. Sunrise :)

and i shall add no words to this point.. simply breath-taking..

8. I sprained my ankle

So i was going down the hill, joyfully, la la laaa~ kelepak!!! I landed on a bended ankle @_@.. At first it seemed like a simple slip, and i thought i'd be okay. But when i tried to stand up again, it started to sting, and i knew it was not good sign.. :( Which got me walking with a stick through the rest of the journey. Dah laa time tu turun, laagi putting more pressure on the ankles.. huhuhu but Alhamdulillah, ada beberapa org yang datang tolong.. antaranya anip, audrey, and najwa. Thank You korang :) and in a way, it was a blessing in disguise, i've never trekked with a stick, like Yoda and his wooden cane hahaha..

9. Sungai Bongok (Bangang pon bolley :P)

Yes, this is Sungai Bongok. Came across this while we were hiking down the mountain. See that cliff on your left? Well, you can actually jump down from there. Okay, mind you that it was actually high, nampak macam rendah and kecik je kan? don't be deceived young readers! hahaha There's a story behind this Sg Bongok. An incident? lol. So i reached here a bit late, after i sprained my ankle and what not, and the moment i set my eyes at this beautiful place, the Uniten dudes were already starting to jump off the cliff. I struggled like mad to climb down from the rocks, to the river. But i managed it, put my bag aside, and sat on the river rocks with Najwa, as i witness the fun of jumping off the cliffs which i knew, with the sprained ankle, i couldn't participate. I looked at Najwa, and I knew she wanted to try as well. Mawi came and joined us while supporting my leg. He's a cute tart haha.. and i persuaded Najwa to try. I felt bad she didn't wanna try coz she feels bad about my leg. I mean, you're there already, i wouldn't want anyone to be missing out on the fun just because of me ya know. So Mawi and I pushed Najwa to try, Mawi panggil Din, and that was all it took hahaha din datang, tros tarik Najwa naik, and she jumped! Hooooraay!! or at least happy was what I felt at first when she agreed to it. But then.. envy swarm over... jealousy.. and just pure sadness!!!!! coz i wanted sooo bad to jump as well!!! hahahhahahaha i know, macam bengong kan? I even cried!! Mawi was concerned, and he thought it was my ankle hurting.. and i said, "No.. aku nak terjun!! huu huu huuu.." hahahahahhahahaha! Now that i think about it, mcm kelakar gilaa plaakk.. And you know, i'm glad i cried coz then Mawi started to persuade me.. and pushed me.. and in the end, i actually went!!! Sakit? i didn't feel THAT at all!!! not until i returned from the jump that is haha, and tros kaki saket balek hahaha.. but ya know, at that particular moment, when i was in the waters after the jump, trying to swim up for air, i felt sooo focused and.. free.. huhuhu masyaAllah.. rasa dia lain.. huhuhu.. :)

10. It filled my Heart, full <3

I came with a wrecked heart. Broken. Empty. Lost (gosh, all the depressing words! :P).. And no, it wasn't broken just because of a guy okay. It became that way because of how disappointed I was with myself. I didn't like who i was this past few months, didn't like what i was doing.. Missed the old vibrant me. But after this trip.. it made me feel warm again. Focused. Determined. Loved. Im more of myself, now that i've been reminded of who that was, is huhu. I needed this. And its funny how it came to me at random, and out of my comfort zone. Alhamdulillah, the whole trip went awesome. I wouldn't say it was perfect, or else it wouldn't be real lol. But it was def more than the better i could ever asked for. To new friends, i'm sorry if ive ever made u feel uncomfortable in any way. I didn't mean to. and Thank you to everyone who was involved with this trip, directly or indirectly.. Grateful for it all :)

ps: And i've picked up a new hobby, hiking! :)
