west, west away, the round sun is falling.
grey ship, grey ship, do you hear them calling,the voices of my people that have gone before me?
i will leave, i will leave the woods that bore me
(pg 935)
day one
the sun was still hidden beyond the horizon when 40 students from various courses convened at the sunway foyer to board the bus that would take them all the way to lumut.
8.00 am - catching up on sleep
the rain started around the time we left selangor and didn't let up. upon arrival at the lumut jetty, we were besieged by ferry people looking for passengers. zz remained adamant that we already booked a ferry. soon after some bald guy brought us to our means of getting across the sea to pangkor.
11.45 am - aboard the ferry to pangkor.
harry potter 1 was playing

our arrival on pangkor was heralded by clear skies and breezy winds. we were ushered into little pink vans, 10 to a van.
12.45 pm - pink vans around pangkor
soon, after traversing windy roads slick from the downpour, we arrived at pangkor rimba camp where we were to live for the next 3 days and 2 nights. we soon discovered the extent of our accomodations. there were 23 girls, 17 guys, and 3 dorms. i'm not sure how this happened but it turned out to be 12 girls, 11 girls, and 17 guys to a dorm each. one dorm had one bathroom.that's it.
one bathroom contained a shower head, basin, and a toilet of the squattable kind. so imagine 17 guys, all sandy and sweaty after a day at the beach.. coming back to their dorm which has one bathroom.. and finding out that it's occupied. by a girl. after grimly mulling over this for awhile, we had some food and games.

2.30 pm - blow whaaat??
athalia and liz, our games people, gave us a bunch of straws and orders to build a tall thing. we were divided into groups and came up with names like putu mayam, sleep deprived, alpha-q, and alpha-q back.

3.00 pm - straw towers
after that session of team building, we wandered about. some of us got into mischief with a tyre swing by the beach. some played volleyball, some captainball.
6.00 pm - ganas enough for you??

after some physical exercise (studying for exams is a good way for stress buildup and weight gain) some headed off to a place with shops down the road, or what we fondly called the 'pekan'.
after a little snack at the pekan (sampling some pangkorian seafood, fish sticks, etc) and a little dinner back at the chalet, abrar (our rimba camp guide dude) lit a fire for us! so there we were roasting marshmallows and getting a view of the night sky.
7.00 pm - curry seafood stew! *drool*

Not bad...a summary of what we had done there...the author should show some feelings for it. :P guess this is the work a secretary's report...hehe..
There are other things that have not been covered, such as project "codename ants" and island "area 51". Hmm..these are probably thought up by me to get your attention. I'll probably be posting these stuff on my next post so stay tuned~ Sorry lazy to post now...hehe
