What A Long Long "Holiday"

I AM BACK! Yes! I AM! Words cannot describe the feelings that were going through me when we hit back Singapore. Just imagine how I felt. The sense of relief and happiness. Undescribable. But what I can say is that I was SOOOOOOOOOO envious of the people that went to Perak for the society leadership trip. If it wasn't for India, I really could have gone. Melvin Tan even booked a place for me already darn it. Oh well, glad that the people enjoyed it. (*curses*) Haha!

Anyway, let me explain the India trip like how I did in a certain debrief in India. All those who were there heard this.

"It's like being served great food with really terrible service. Then made to eat the food with total anger and unhappiness."

Let me explain it simply. Fascinating place. Terrible planning. And I like totally said this directly at the "Black Ball's" face. He wanted personal views so that's what I gave. He still could act blur about it. Dumb prick. Ha! Aight aight.

So since we are not allowed to disclosed the photos and videos yet, I'm going to just some random thoughts on the trips. I'll get to the photos later. =)

Warning: A lot of inside jokes some will not understand.

Mt. Kinabalu

- Best scenery I have ever seen!

- Budget Airlines really suck

- Drivers there drive like they are in Initial D. And that was on the mountain range road!

- AirAsia stewardesses look like men!

- Kinabalu Airport was probably the smallest airport I have ever seen.

- I love the Nikon D70!

- Why can't they get water heaters that actually work?!

- Andrew really snores like a wild boar. Getting old dude!

- Andre actually doubles up as a walking stick part-time.

- Andrew's camera strangely has a lot of photos of 1 particular person. Hmmmm...

- Get more training done before ever doing stuff like this!

- Surprised I didn't get altitude sickness.

- We were f***ing lucky! For 2 reasons. 1st: The whole time we were there, it rained almost everyday except the day we climbed up to the peak! 2nd: The plane crash for an AirAsia flight at Kota Kinabalu happened about 2 days after we left. Phew!

- The guides are badass climbers. Sick dudes!

- Jason! Where are the scandalous photos of those 2?! Oooooo...

- Andrew must have really loved sharing the room with 4 girls. B***ard! Ha!

- One of the best and cheapest seafood dinners I have ever EVER had!

- Talking to a half-dead lobster which was still moving while eating it was interesting; and delicious.

- People actually brought McDonald's up the mountain. Mad.

- Someone actually "bombed" one of the shelters before we came. Actually looked "fresh". Must have been really urgent for him to do it so publicly.
