..:: D A Y T W O ::..

phew! we did traversing in five and a half hours, a feat for us SGGs! under the guidance (albeit a bit annoying) tutelage of fellow coursemate william, we managed to do it. yay! got tanned in the process - okay okay, not a tan. more like a burn. hahaha~

illustration purposes only :P

we started off at 7.30am - and with a non-malay as our leader, the timing was obviously NON-MALAYSIAN. 7.30am is what he said, 7.30am is when we go. we went, set up stuff, and did what we needed to do. thanks to muscle memory, i still knew how to set up those equipments - albeit a bit slower due to rustiness. but that doesn't mean that some people could treat me as if i know nothing...my set up time is significantly less than yours, and you are the one showing yours truly the ropes? it was a nasty slap to the face (again) but then i let it go - not worth the fight. after all, we all come to learn.

the skills of my fellow group members warranted an early finish - we finished up at 1pm. ALHAMDULILLAH...so william said that we will have the afternoon off (thanks william!) and will work on the paperwork afterwards. i volunteered to do the report because well, i have a way with words (^.^) but we'll have a full day tomorrow, so i'll need to get well-read on traversing, and get plenty of rest!

had double ayam masak merah, stewed cabbage and kangkung with rice for lunch - i was feeling ravenous!! but what i did in the morning and after lunch justified them. don't hate me ;P

since i don't know when i will have the time to settle this, i decided to get my stuff into the dorm storage today. went to get the tags (rm10 for three, dear kolej 11 readers) and went up four storeys for three times to get all stuff in. i wish i had big strong guys to help me out...so damn exhausted! the rest of the stuff i still need for survey camp and won't make it until the storage deadline, so some of them will be put with a dear friend of mine to store...

nazmi's little (BIG) helper ;)


gotta get some rest this afternoon - need to read up on traversing and the calculation methods. ;)
