All the birds can now come back to the tree man, cause winter and sleep time's dreadfully over.
Yeah, so are the holidays.
Stayed home for the first day of school, how crap is that. Well just didn't feel up to it in the morning. And before you all start guessing, i have a MC, yeah and i didn't waste it as i thought i was going to on sunday night.
But still, sunday night i was pacing around, feeling not in the mood of school yet. Oh well, maybe i was sick and wasn't half as mad and drugged in homework chionging as the others. My engines are all still dead. It's going to take something rude to wake me up.
Just to recap the holidays.
First week was slack, in terms of activities, well i was out 6 days out of 7 days in a week and the time i was at home? Start on work. Now that's slack for you. Well maybe cause i didn't go to school for academic stuff at least.
Second week was tough and boring. Leadership camp, training, Rinjani preparations and RE, yes RE started, oh god. RE meeting dragged all the way till Sunday 12 midnight at Akira in Jurong East? Now before you go WTHECK, we all taxied home. So basically, the driver drove us from west to north to central then to east. S'pore tour at 00:00? That's just way too cool for some reasons. Name one, it can cost you alot when price was at 150%. That was an RE highlight, not to mention the bunny suite and some cranky volunteers.
And before i forget, i was flying off on monday and haven't packed my bag. One hell of a night there for me.
Rinjani on third week was UNEXPECTEDLY awesome. In summary, you climb a crap load of distance and pant like a dog due to altitude but dont usually break much of a sweat. You feel cold and get sun burnt. You watch your pee steam and obviously you learn how to time your shit and where to aim. But nevertheless, you are inspired by those porters that carry stuff which weighs perhaps 3 times your bag pack and jumps up and down the rocks on slippers, not scandals, slippers. Up there it's one moment 40 degrees, another moment sub 12 degrees, wind chill factor and the sun of course.
Summit climb was just, memorable. Climbing a step and slipping 3/4 of that step. Go figure. Adding on is the wind gusting sand into your eyes and the freezing conditions. Some unlucky ones got their warm clothing blown off and of course some got blown away themselves. But the satisfaction was great of course, so was the food.
Week 4, came down with dam bad fever and flu. and that lasted until now. So i did nothing but lie in bed and wake up everyday to surprising Euro 2008 results. It just doesnt get any better.
Shouldn't have wrote all that, i am getting back into holiday mood. I think i should try to do some work, if not i might end up getting a really really rude awakening in week 2.
