.......

but, i am SO EXCITED!!
in 25 mins time, i will be heaving my 5kg backpack and meeting my colleagues to climb mount ophir.ooh yeah...
the much-anticipated-quads-nearly-died-while-training trip!!
and this week was so busy cos the trip as well...
apart from feeling exhausted after work, still have to make sure all the things i need are here, and that i get packed...
though i did pack last night, only to weigh the bag and realise it's a whopping 8kg!
so, have to repack using my brother's field pack
and of course with captain guay's help, i manage to shrink the weight down to 5kg :)

had a shower and now feeling fresh and very sleepy...
but also can feel the adrenaline in me...
part of me really wish i can prove everyone wrong..
get up to the summit and go 'ah? like that only ah?'
but the realistic part of me know that i will probably be the one going 'omg, can we please rest again!?'
-_-

nonetheless...
i am definitely looking forward to it...
and also trying to mentally prepare myself for sore quads and butt on monday..
which happen to be salsa day O_o
oh well...fingers cross...
and it's time to get ready to go..

if u dun see any update of this blog in the next week...
please send the police to hunt for me/my body in mount ophir
O_o

tonight...
in 25mins time...
i will be lesving to meet the rest at clementi pick up point...
on the way to Ophir for the 2nd time!

excited?
not as much as the previous trip...
but this time round, apparently it's gonna be a new route...
and it's gonna be 28 of us climbing...
goodness gracious me...
last time 13 ppl already not very the fast (remember, we are the perlahan perlahan team...)
hopefully, fingers crossed, this route is easier...
and will be faster...

also will be lodging at the resort on the base of the mountain, so less load to carry...
but more distance to cover in a day..
*cross fingers*

and this time round...
i have someone special by my side...
which means i can 'long bang' some stuff in his bag...
so my load can be even lighter *evil laugh*

all in all, it's a brand new experience...
with almost brand new team of climbers/trekkers...
just hope that everything will go smoothly...

Gunung Ledang, here i come!
