Your personal nurse?



I'm home! Got back from Taman Negara yesterday morning. I got back not really all cheery, maybe it's because of my period, or maybe about something that happened on my trip. But I got over it that very night when I went out with Taz.


Highlights of my overseas trip:


Me and Aisyah on a boat ride to Taman Negara.




I went into a bat cave. Seeing hundreds of bats hanging and flying above was really awesome. The most adventurous thing I've ever did. Well, the cave was small, in a way you had to squat to climb through the rocks which were wet and slippery. The smell was something different but bearable. The only fear I had while I was in there was that I was afraid leeches would get stuck on me and suck my blood. I wouldn't mind mosquitoes but leeches just get stuck there, visibly, wriggling about and doesn't get off until they've sucked their share. But thank God I didn't get sucked by any leeches during my whole trip there.


This is at the entrance of the bat cave.


Here are the bats.


We also got wet. It was the most fun experience dipping in the cold mountain water. We were near a mini waterfall. I love it there. Water was clean and refreshing. The rocks were slippery though. I absolutely love it there.


Me and Aisyah.


Splashed.


We went rapid shooting. We got on a boat and we went through the rapids. I got wet twice. I actually thought it was going to be like, you know, where people sit in this big yellow inflatable float/boat and go quickly rushing into the rapids and we'll get thrown off or something. But it wasn't. Kinda disappointed. But then, we reached this place where there weren't any rapids, just this wide river and the boat driver just poured the river water all over some of us, one of them is me. That's when I got 80% wet. Then we went dipping into the river and I got 99% wet. Me and Aisyah had a mini wrestling match in the water and I got scraped by the sharp rocks and pebbles. It stung! Then we had to go back. Took the boats and while the boat was moving, our boat driver had the most marvellous idea ever. He used a paddle and somehow made a huge spray of water and got the guys in another boat wet. It was AWESOME!! They got back at us however and we got wet again. It was so much fun!! And the people at the nearby floating restaurants were all looking at us and smiling. It was really really great. I just wish I could bring you people there and experience it.


At Taman Negara, you can see trees, trees, rivers, trees, mountains, trees and more trees. So, naturally, there's some trekking and hiking to do. God! It was the most tiring thing ever! I almost wanted to give up. It takes someone who's fit and have great stamina and endurance to go through this. If only I had some fat to lose then this hiking stuff would be really worth it. But I don't have any fat to get rid of so.. yea. There was also the canopy walk. They have this bridge that they made out of narrow pieces of wood and nets and ropes. It's like walking on treetops. It was really cool. I love it.


On the Canopy walk.


We also met the Orang Asli, the people who lives in the jungle. They're really cool. Very efficient with the stuff they get from the jungle itself.


This two guys are the Orang Asli. They made fire and this dart thing they used to shoot at animals.


Where they live.


We did all this with the guidance of the best guides I've EVER met. The main guide was this lady named Angie. She's awesome! She's fit and adventurous and everything. Really cool. Then there's other guides that basically their jobs are to take care of us and make sure we are safe and everything. But of course if we ask them anything about Taman Negara or whatever, they can answer. There was quite a number who are pretty cute. I've got a crush on one of them. Someone else actually likes him too. I just couldn't believe it. She likes every guy that I pointed out cute. Like when I saw a man in uniform or a caucasian guy and I exclaimed "Ooh, he's cute!" She went like "Omg. I think we both the same. We both like men in uniform and caucasian guys." I was like ok.. Then one time I found this doctor cute. At first she went like "Are you sure?" But one day she was like "Nad, he IS cute!" I was like, in my heart, "Get your own cute guy!" And now this guide?? I mean, WHY? HOW? And on the last day, while waiting for the train back to Singapore, they were like sitting together, talking. Everyone knows about it and she just pretends and ignores the attention. God!! I'm like one jealous freak. But COME ON! How can we both like the same guy?? This was what happened on my trip that didn't make me all cheery. But whatever RIGHT. It's not like I can marry him or anything. He lives all the way at Pahang, Malaysia. WHATEVER!!


These are the guides, Angie and Salihin.


The food on the floating restaurant was alright. The chalet we stayed in was above my expectations. I loved it. The sleeper train was alright. The train that we took when we were going towards Taman Negara was 'wild'. I tried to catch some shut eye but the train was like this cradle that's rocked by an angry or hasty mother. Only instead of putting us to sleep, it's like trying to jar us awake. But I did get some sleep for a few hours. The train back to Singapore was better. I slept the whole journey. It was nice. Only I loathe the toilet! It's small and dirty and wet.


We also did some shopping the last night. The stuff were pretty cheap. Bought something for my whole family. And of course, for myself as well. Bought something for dear Tini too, since she didn't go for any overseas trip.


Well, all in all, I had fun 93% of the time. I've inhaled too much cigarette smoke in all my entire lifetime though. The guys practically smoked 12 sticks a day man! I could die man. They even smoked in the forest! I mean, HELLO! FOREST! COUNTLESS TREES! HELLO!! Fresh air? Clean air? But NOOO! I had to smell and take in the smoke that's gonna one day destroy my lungs and kill me. But other than that, they're fine. Funny and just plain HORNY.


These are the guys who went. There's another one but he's not in here.


Got home at about 11am, gave the stuff to my family. About 6.30pm, I went out to meet Taz. We went to Arab Street to eat dinner at Samar. The food was marvellous.. Or NOT. The Iced Mocha is like a 1 out of 10. Then we left and went to another restaurant to meet her friend Ahn, who brought another friend he introduced as Zac, I think. Zac, was C-U-T-E! But he looked like the kind who is SO cool that goes to clubs and have bikes or whatever. Those unapproachable kind. I was waiting for Taz to introduce me to her friends but she didn't. I was quite surprised la. Then Ahn went to order something and then Taz got a call and left me alone sitting at the table with Zac. I was like Shit! I just kept quiet and looked anywhere but at him. Then he asked my name and we talked a bit. Then Taz came back. Ahn came back. And I thought that's it, I won't have a chance to talk to him again. Then their orders came and I changed seat with Ahn, so then I'm sitting across Zac. Taz asked Ahn to change places with me so I did. Then they started talking. At first I was kinda out of the conversation but then Zac talked to me also. Found out some stuff about him. He's a police. He's hilarious and fun. I love his character. I've become his personal nurse. He's going to get a treatment he can't forget. Hahah.. He's just so cool and cracks me up so much. He was flirting, winking at me and doing the kissing lips thing. God! That would be irritating only I know he was just playing around so I didn't mind. Played back and laughed it off. Well, it was fun. Cheered me up. Zac is cheeky. Well, Taz is like excited to matchmake me to someone. But if I told her I like Zac, I don't know if I can. I mean, I've got a feeling Taz likes him too or something. She might, I don't know, want him or something. And it's not like as if I can stop her. She has closer connection to him than I do. It's like this: Me->Taz->Ahn->Zac. Yea.. Anyway, had fun talking and laughing. Then Taz's parents came to pick us up. I was smiling all the way in the car. Reached my place, thanked the parents, hugged and thanked Taz for inviting me along. She thought of doing this again. I just hope Zac will be there and it's only the 4 of us again.


This is Zac. He looks better in real life. Or maybe it's just the camera isn't good.


Reached home. I missed my bed.
