Sungei (Sungai - dunno which spelling to use) Buloh Review!

Below would be the nicest group picture of us taken that day :)

Hikers (from left to right): Henry, Nadirah, Haslinda, Sufyan, Farhan, Kim

While waiting for Farhan to arrive (serves you right for being SO LATE!)

Yay! We're gonna take Bus 925! We got mistaken for Professional Tennis players while at the bus-stop. HAHAHAHA!

It's becoming a tradition to take a picture of the entrances of places we visit!

ORGANISERS, YO!

This photo turned out kinda nice! With Nad (the extra - cos wearing white) right smack in the middle! Macam National flag seh!

I am the in picture! Just gotta look carefully (read: the giant crab).

When we reached the viewing station, everyone's cameras got fished out and we were so engrossed taking pictures, we stuck our heads into the holes in between to get a better view.

Here's what we looked like IN FRONT:

Now brace yourselves for what the view was the other side....

WAH LAO EH!

Us, monkeying around... literally!

Why do we look so disorganised over here?

Ans: Before the camera flash went off, a huge wasp flew towards us and we were running EVERYWHERE to avoid getting stung. And just as the flash signal came on, we ran back into position and *SNAP* Look at how flustered Nadirah looked from all that scrambling! LOL!

WAKAKAKAKAKAKAKA!!!

VOILA! THE VIEWING TOWER!

We meet yet again!

Haslinda attempting to do a mini-limbo!

Sufyan attempting to be a secret society member!

Our favourite Boardwalk :D

The outdoor classroom for the Outdoor-ers!

At the library!

The moment we stepped in, people went out. It's either we were too noisy, or we just stank REAL BAD!

Sufyan bought us souenirs from Krabi/Phuket! We love Sufyan!

Green: Kim

Red: Haslinda

Purple: Henry

Orange: Nadirah

Pink: Farhan

ROFL!

KOKO KRUNCH, The breakfast cereal with the great chocolatey taste!

This is a very classic face of Sufyan's. Omg! The guy is now famous, all thanks to his dancing skills. LOL! If you haven't watched our latest dance video, head over to my facebook account and watch "Dancing with Mother Nature II"

We loved the video so much, we kept watching it over and over again at Has' crib!

And it resulted in us having stubborn stitches in our sides!

Ok, I'm finally done with the really overdued post! Not all pictures have been posted so go to Facebook if you wanna see more!

-Kim-

BOO!

2009-03-20T19:17:00.002+08:00

HSBC Tree-top hike, Pizza/Slumber Party!

2009-03-06T21:25:00.053+08:00

HAVE YOU SEEN THIS WOMAN?!

Dark-skinned, medium built, standing at 1.6m in height

Age: 20

Known for taking SUPER UNGLAM shots of others when they least expect it.

Warning: She is HIGHLY DANGEROUS!

Some of her latest (infamous) works:

No prizes for guessing who's her most saught-after victim!

Review Time!!

We met at Admiralty first to place all our belongings at Haslinda's place before hopping onto the bus to Yishun where Ai Kim was waiting for us. This is our first ever LADIES ONLY hiking trip with a Pizza/Slumber Party. And oh, the theme was white tee. :)

Destination Located! Picture taken before embarking.

All of us enthusiastic to commence the hike (we had NO IDEA what was installed for us)

We picked the difficult path. This picture here DOES NOT portray anything close to how tedious the trails were. (Hint: get me a better camera!)

Took us more than an hour to get to the SUSPENSION BRIDGE!!

JELUTONG TOWERS (7 Storeys high!)

BROADWALK (resembles Chek Jawa eh?)

AND WE COMPLETED THE WALK IN... 4 HOURS ODD??

Though along the way, we did run into a few interesting creatures. HAHAHAHA! Lemme do a brief intro for the benefit of those who weren't able to join us that day.

These are NADIRAH'S new found soul-mates. They've made plans for future banana picnics at the Niagra Falls.

The male monkey was humping the female one (doggy style) when we came across them. LOL! My camera didn't load fast enough to capture that 5 second scandalicious ordeal (another hint to get me a better camera).

Ooooohhhh... Who's this???

HASLINDA'S new-found plushie whom she affectionally calls "Scales".

Really huge and rough for a toy plushie, but, oh well, as long as that woman's satisfied :)

AI KIM'S latest discovery in "modern medicine which is not so modern"

Trying to achieve immortality?! Our fellow Nurse has found the perfect concoction for you to live on forever & ever & ever & everrRRRR!!!

Gather a handful of those toadstools, add in some cream cheese, pound them until it produces a paste, add in some pepper for extra spice and chug it all down with a glass of sugar-less lemonade.

BOUND TO WORK WONDERS!

Back at Haslinda's crib... *phew* Look at how sweaty/oily our faces were!

After everyone has showered, WE ORDERED OUR PIZZA! Woohoo!

The girls who stayed for a round of Twister, gossip sessions & fattening dinner!

Too hungry to even wait for the rest to arrive. Hahaha!

Kamariah posing with her Ferrero Rocher while the rest of us suffer during Twister!

Evil Evelyn was Game-Master for the evening.

While they were enjoying their food...

WE ENDURED ENDLESS HUMILIATION!!!

The girl who suffered the most jia-lat poses. LOL! Kudos to her for still being able to smile!

Did Ai Kim fall asleep during the game (cause she was too tired) or did her limbs just give way?! :P

Only Kamariah & I stayed overnight at Haslinda's place :(

But it was still fun! Being able to gossip & bitch and share stories with one another... *sigh* All part of growing up. Man, I'm gonna miss times like these when we eventually do start work.

Lethargy took a toll on our bodies and we zonked out at 2.30am

Woke up at 8.30am the next morning and we headed to AMK Hub for PEPPER LUNCH!!

Thank you everybody for making this trip/gathering so enjoyable! Wait for our next hiking trip, alright? We'll be spreading the word around soon! ;)

Kim.

An impromtu trip to Upper Pierce Reservoir Park

2009-02-28T19:19:00.058+08:00

Hello, everyone! Kimmi here *winks*

Haslinda & I were chatting away on msn this afternoon and we agreed that it'll be such a waste of our weekend if we just stay at home and rot/go to town (nothing fascinating about town these days anyway). Therefore, we decided to head down to Upper Pierce reservoir for yet another hike! LOL! Yes, yes, we are so addicted to outdoor trips now... A single trip to Pulau Ubin was all it took to get us hooked! The both of us tried to recruit a few other friends along but to no avail :( Ok lor, we go alone lor. I'm seriously tired right now, so I'll just post up some of the pictures that we took ok? Really no energy to blog much :(

Super steep slope!

We've finally reached!! After 40 minutes of non-stop walking (and running from monkeys!)

Oh, Happy Day!!!

MONKEY GALORE...!!!

We went cam-crazy from this point onwards

VERY S-T-R-O-N-G wind

Somehow or rather, I'm pretty sure the "Rain God" is in love with us lah. Cos everytime when we're on a hiking trip, it NEVER FAILS to pour. And this trip was NO DIFFERENT!

Just look at how dark the sky suddenly became. Omg.

Friggin' heavy downpour!!!

Haslinda went into DEPRESSION.

Can only be cured with cam-whoring & roti-prata.

Yummy yummy pratas at Casuarina Curry. HAHAHAHA!

Stay tune to the next blog-post! Haslinda will be blogging about the next ladies-only outdoor trip cum slumber-party! Do join us if you're able to, ok? We only have a few more weeks before we start working; STOP HESITATING!!

Recap Time!!!

2009-02-27T11:07:00.052+08:00

After having a good night's rest, I bet everyone's all fresh and ready to start a new day! :D If anyone experienced any lower limb numbness/prolonged muscle aches, YOU'RE NOT ALONE! Could barely make the way back to my room after I sat down on the sofa.

The trip went well (duh, who're in the organising committee?)! Despite having to walk in the rain for approximately an hour, getting lost multiple times, scouting high & low for the path leading to Kent Ridge Park and getting our feet soaked in muddy rainwater, this trip was truly memorable! Haslinda & I are already in the midst of planning the 3rd outdoor trip but sorry guys, this time it's just for the ladies *grinz*

"Map" for the day. Credits to Haslinda!

HARBOURFRONT MRT STATION (1030 hrs)

At the foot of Mount Faber Park

Why are the only 5 people in the above pictures?! Hmm, cos apparently, the other 5 were still having their morning coffee at Godknowswhere and thus, we embarked on the journey first, agreeing to meet the others at Henderson Waves where the ice-breaking session was to take place.

When we reached Mount Faber Park.... WE GOT LOST! And we didn't even know that we were heading in the wrong direction until a kind middle-aged man asked us, "What are you guys looking for?". When we told him we wanted to head towards Henderson Waves, he pointed back up the path that we had previously walked. WAHAHAHA! Hence, he helped take a picture of us standing in front of the HUMONGOUS Henderson Waves sign which we completely missed! LOL!

And we waited for the other 5 thrill-seekers :D

ICE-BREAKING SESSION!

Did they bring an ORANGE item along?

Did they have caps?

How about Digital watches?!!!

You be the judge ;)

Continue scrolling down to see what you missed out on...

And the day ended at good ol' McDonalds :)

Sorry, can't post up all the pictures because Blogger is so irritating!! I'm experiencing problems with uploading the photos! ROARRR!!! Thank God for Facebook (which can be a bitch at certain times).

Thank you everyone for joining us on yet another adventure! Hope y'all had a jolly good time and may we meet again!!

Thanks Guys!

2009-02-26T18:42:00.004+08:00

haslinda here. :D

once again, thanks for coming. i'm busy uploading pictures and tagging, so do check out your facebook soon! and oh, rest well tonight. :)

Do not forget these!!

2009-02-25T16:21:00.006+08:00

Alright, in case you're wondering what are some of the essentials to bring along, here's a short list:

1) Water-bottle [VERY IMPORTANT OK!]

2) Sun-block [optional]

3) Extra clothes [especially so if you're a hygiene freak & can't stand going home in sweat-drenched garments]

4) Small towel [optional again]

5) Appropriate footwear [don't be dumb like me & wear sandals ah! you'll regret, i swear!]

6) Insect repellent [optional]

7) Umbrella [judging by weather these past few days... better safe than sorry, no?]

8) CAMERA!! [Haslinda, you GOTTA bring yours along]

These are what I would be bringing, but if you have other stuff which you'd like to take along with you (snacks, shades, deodorant, facial blotters etc.), go right ahead! And remember what are the other FOUR things you have to bring ah! In case you've forgotten...

-Digital watch
-Cap
-souvenir (for ice-breaking session)
-something ORANGE

p/s: I wasn't kidding when I said I'll dunk your head in ice!!!!!! :P

See you guys TMR! :D
-Kim-

West Island Hike (Announcement)

2009-02-19T14:38:00.005+08:00

What will we be doing?

We'll be hiking from Mount Faber Park to West Coast Park. Total estimated distance of ONLY 9km. "Kinda short as compared to our Ubin trip" as quoted by Haslinda. Hahaha! See, it's not as treacherous as the previous expedition, so care to give it a try and do something new?

When is it?

Confirmed date: 26th Feb 2009
Time: 1000hrs
Venue: Harbourfront Mrt

Who have confirmed with us so far?

1) Haslinda
2) Kim
3) Shanling
4) James
5) Loretta
6) Teng Chung
7) Theresa
8) Sufyan

It's a THEME-BASED outing!

On that day, here are a list of things you must have or else I will dunk your head into a bucket of ice :P

-Wear a digital watch! No specific brand or colour.
-Wear/Bring a cap
-Wear/bring something ORANGE (socks, sports-bra, headband, shorts, shirt, HP casing.. as long as it's ORANGE!)

Ice-breaking session :)

Everyone has to bring a little souvenir with him/her that day. Lots will be drawn to see who you have to pass your gift to. This session is to merely help everyone warm up to each other before we set off on the trip. Gifts NEED NOT be extravagant; something simple would do.

******

James has suggested that we do outdoor cooking but I'm not sure if everyone has agreed to it. Has & I did talk about bringing instant noodles along with us that day so... I'll update you guys if there are any changes ok?

xoxo.
