Whole year Evaluation..

Aha… finally year 2007 is ending… 2008 is starting… new beginning, new resolutions.. this year was like a roller coaster ride, a 360 degrees ride.. scary, sickening yet ended in a blink of an eye…

The beginning of the year, underestimated everything.. thinking that scoring 7 A’s in PMR was so great and form 4 syllabus wasn’t a big deal.. tried to act as a smart ass.. neglected studies.. over obsessed with co-curriculum activities..

Jan- ran mini marathon (acceptable)
Feb- joined sports.. 200m, 400m, 800m.. (stupid i guess)
Mar- went for lead camp (din help much )
Apr- drama competition, learn tennis…
May- Scrabbles comp (ended up no1 from behind)
Jun- Leo Forum ( a waste of time & money)
July- Leo installation (nv been so formal)
Aug- NH cup{badminton tournament}
Sept- tried to patch up the holes
Oct- just too late i guess ( sore loser results)
Nov- CA for OBML (2 weeks)
Dec- climbed Mt. kinabalu (accomplished!)

Thinking of what happened through out the year makes me wonder.. why didn’t i make time for studies?? Being last (almost) in class in nothing glamorous to brag around.. Deteriorated in everything hit me the hard in the face.. when i realize it.. it’s just too late to fix things up.. what cow! So, transfered to a lousy class is really padan muka to me la.. i deserve it to the max okay.. Come to think back.. why the hell i was so active in the 1st place?? what did i get in return?? it all concludes into nothing… oh shit.. i have no future.. but stupid experiences in life.. once you’d ruined your studies.. nothing is fun anymore.. nothing is happy anymore.. everything is blank & miserable.. n u’ll feel damn emo.. it’s inevitable..

But activities like Leo Installation, OMBL, climb mountain really damn fun la..
Leo installation is the only reason people like me will be expose to hair sprays, makeups, high heels, dresses.. take many pictures.. the loose foot was the best part! love it!!! i can’t wait till the next installation!!!! (only Ruth & Jiun Joo understands why.. haha )
To mention OBML.. dunno whether to cry or to laugh.. the memories were great.. getting to know all sorts of amazing peoples, just when you’re getting to know them it’s time to depart (sobs).. wishing that time froze.. being there was really like a fantasy world.. n hell ya i’m missing all of them.. all the time.. lots n lots! hoping not to be forgotten.. wishing to meet them again..{ i like the feeling of it.. ironically I’m hating it.. ish..}

In less then 24 hours, big bro is leaving for US to further his studies.. I call him Thai (short for tai ko ) when i was six i accidentally locked him in the toilet in dad’s clinic while he was taking a shower.. due to it was at upstairs.. nobody noticed it (obviously i was nowhere to b seen) n yes, he cried like crap n still nobody realized it until a few hours later.. i felt so bad about it.. every since that day he forced us to call him Taiko lo.. to realize how fast time passes really scares me.. Gosh I’m gonna miss him!!!!!!! 2bro is going to study A level at Taylor’s next week.. shoot.. no more chauffeur.. have to cycle now.. jkjk.. (if u ever read this.. thx lo for sending me around.. i know it’s annoying at times.. juz to tell u that i appreciated it)..

School’s gonna reopen next week.. I know I’m ready.. all of a sudden i have the vibe to study.. i like it.. SPM is gonna be tough..so no more last minutes, no more truancies, no more midnight oils.. that’s the promises I’ve made.. because I’ve found my inner calling.. seriously! i wanna make sure my dream come true! Finally i have a direction, motivation and an ambition..

P.S : Your future is not written in stones, you decide your future.. I’ve learn my lesson.. did you?

Next: 2008 Resolutions

After Kinabalu..

Finally…!!! mt. expedition ends… such a great relieve to be home again… I’m seriously homesick…T.T..i missed my comfy bed~~!! Besides having lactic acids all over my muscles.. Yup.. I’ve definitely enjoyed conquering Mt. Kinabalu to the max! ! <3

Day one, we started our journey from Timpohon Gate at 9am.. We both got this wood stick for 3 bucks each.. it’s proven to be handy at times..the 1st KM was easy.. 2bro n me totally underestimated this mountain..

The totally distance we have to climb was 6km to reach Laban Rata (rest house) After the 1st few km… the tortures begin.. every step was excruciating.. nevertheless, it was misty n COLD!.. everybody knows that sweat + cold wind = not good.. to make things even worse i was having stomach aches, probably latitude sickness.. By the time we reach the 4km mark.. i was fatigue, sweaty, cold, hungry.. that moment was miserable.. Thank goodness Fred (2bro) was being positive and giving me motivation to move on.. though it didn’t help much, at least he helped me to carry my water.. we didn’t hire any porter.. so, carrying our own stuff was a pain.. u feel like throwing your backpack any time!!

Our Mt. guide, Jikon, was nice.. he helped me to carry my backpack!!! how kind of him..just to save his own ass from the rain At then, we reach Laban Rata at 2.30p.m.. it took us 5 1/2 hours.. All i needed was a hot bath….ahh~~ it tasted like heaven.. Our room had no ventilation.. just 2 beds n a light.. but it kept us warm though..luckily we made it early, cause it rained heavily later that day.. after a great bath we slept, had dinner and slept off again.. trust me.. it was impossible to sleep with all the noises from the other groups.. but, thats how we survived the 1st day..

Day two- woke up at 12am.. prepare everything and what so ever.. had coffee and chocolate for b’fast.. which is pathetic.. departed at 2.25 a.m.. Jikon was waiting for us already.. and i said the magic word please….. so he helped me to carry my raincoat.. haha.. magic always works.. then, the adventure begins.. it was quite a clear sky.. the stars were absolutely gorgeous..not excluding the city lights.. especially viewing it 3000 meters above sea level…. But, every step ahead i was at the verge of breaking down.. the wind was so strong that it pushed me… (HELL YA IT WAS STRONG!!) the cold breeze froze my face, hands, toes.. the pain was unbearable.. to think that the fact we’re almost there… the peak.. it kept us moving forward.. the height wasn’t a phobia to me.. nor the does the steepness of the mountain… the journey was tough… yet……

WE MADE IT!!!!!!!!

we reached the peak at 5.30a.m.. 3 hours of trekking, 20 minutes before sunrise.. n extremely lucky that it didn’t rain.. a great feeling of euphoria was felt when i accomplish my mission!! Jikon was like: “tahniah kamu berdua.. akhirnya sampai juga..” the moment we touched Lows Peak’s signboard ..he shook our hands n took our picture as a remembrance.. really need to thanked him for the times he used reverse psychology on me when i was going to give up.. due to my frozen hand.. not many pictures were taken..stupid wet gloves.. we didn’t even hang around long.. just after dawn we rush down like speedy Gonzales.. btw, the sunrise was breathtaking..

It was my 1st time viewing a sunrise.. to make it even special.. i viewed it 4092 m above sea level!!! i feel damn good about it!! Soon, it was time to leave the peak..i said goodbye to the peak.. the scenery will forever me in my mind.. unforgettable..

Regarding the time taken for us to reach down.. u just need to divide by two for the time taken for us to go up.. easy huh? It was definitely a once in a life time experience.. i would like to make it my 1st n last experience for this mountain.. but i recommend if u guys wanna have a try… just go ahead.. it worth every dime..

After this expedition, i felt like a somebody from a nobody.. it totally changed my perspective on certain things in life.. i have a better self esteem, confidence, perseverance…. hey, i conquered Kinabalu remember?

P.S: I’m just glad I’m home now.. even though i’m the maid for the next 4 weeks..

Coming up Next – Whole year evaluation

Mt. Expedition..

It’s 11.11 p.m. now..

Tomorrow i’ll be leaving for the land below the wind (a.k.a Sabah) Like i said, I’ll be conquering Malaysia’s tallest mountain!!! As u guys know, i’m the kiasu type.. so i did my research.. It turns out that Mt.Kinabalu is a climber-friendly mountain!! yay.. i hope the trainings i did for the past 2 months helps.. like hiking, jogging, cycling… etc…. i did ask my instructor during Outward Bound.. he says: Mt. Kinabalu is just lazy walk comparing to what we are doing now.. (we were having our jungle trekking expedition at the moment) so i was like, Serious??? a huge sigh of relieve was released on the dot.. Because i wasn’t struggling or having a hard time trekking at all….

Back to reality.. i’m done packing my stuff d like the essentials- handphone, torchlight, sweater, long johns, medicine.. and the rest i’ll just get it from kk (Kota Kinabalu).. Haiz, tomorrow must wake up at 2 am.. the maid is finally going home.. n i have to be the maid for a month!!!!!! (T.T)… never mind, it’s time to b independent Christine!!

Hopefully I’ll come back in one piece!

Kay… that’s all for this short post i guess…. yawn*

nitez people!

oh shoosh.. i kena tag..

okay… no thanks to jiun shan over here.. i kena tag.. that is still fine.. but what’s bothering me is.. it’s in Chinese!!!!
