My Berkelah Trip 2003


.:19th September 2003 11.10pm Kranji Mrt, S'pore :.

My first time to the natural waterfall... (not man-made wor) haha.. so excited!! me packed my 45 plus litre bag full of clothes, water, hammock and FOOD... Meeting the rest 11pm at Kranji Mrt... *hehe*

We aboard the coach at around 11.45pm making our way to Woodland Causeway, got our passport "chop" n headed towards the long journey to kuantan... watching "pirate of the carribean" and "cruel jaw" on the coach... lame show~

.:20th September 2003 6.00am Gurung Berkelah, Kuantan :.

We reached the kopitiam at the foot of berkelah at 6.00am... sianz.. i was about to go to sleep then... It was suggested that we get some drink before we trek uphill... We managed to get a lorry at a price of 5RM per person that drove us all the way to the base camp... song ah~... there was another group with us on the lorry...
We start to trek uphill and we took a rest around half hour time.. and continued our journey.. to everyone surprise, we reached the campsite at 8.30am in the morning... i nearly *faint* most of us thought it would be lunch time when we reached the campsite... i nearly fainted due to the fact that i brought only cup noodle for my dinner.. 2 pear for lunch... *piang*


we play around with the water.. wooo~ it was so cooling n refreshing~ steady ah!@$#%^$% Around 1 plus after we had our lunch some of us decided that we should go and explore the main waterfall (which they say is few storey high!! Cannot Miss ah!!!) We climb up and down crossing a few dangerous n slippery spots... well i was kinda clumsy during the trek.. haha.. tripped n fell few times... but soon i learnt my lesson... taking off my sandal and trek bare-footed, not a very brilliant idea but proven to be more steady... ;D after that my sole grew more "thick-skinned"... :D

Hehe.. we finally reached the main waterfall at around 2 plus... wooh.. the water there was freezing cold... didnt really want to go down due to the strong current i guess... but it was so tempting!! majority of the guys were oredi at the opposite side of the fall... so the rest of the gers followed n swam over at the same time.. hehe.. wrong decision.. the guys got problem getting us out of the water... i gulped down a mouthful of water... hee it wasn't salty, must be spring water from heaven*** water got into my mouth, nose and eye when i was reaching the bank.. ^&%#$%%

Those guys did some diving stunt near the main waterfall..*splash* one by one take turn to jump in the icy cold water... while we decided to head back after some rest, they found a leech on winston's back... *piangz* for fear that there were other 'bloodsucker' around, some of them hid behind the bushes to have their overall body check-up... :)

On our way back... determine to have some more fun at the rest of the small waterfall... mark be the first guinea pig to jump at a few metre high cliff... followed one by one jumping off the cliff.. too bad yenpeng , willy n ramneek couldnt join us in the 'jetty jump'... Well most of us did try at least twice... my jump was a 'painful' experience... hai~ We had lotsa fun on our way back...

Soon the sky start turning cloudy n DARK.. the minute we reached our campsite, raindrops falling... woo.. so cooling! but so afraid that we might catch a cold in our wet clothing... at around 6+ the sky turned better, we cooked our dinner... we had maggi mee, cheese pasta, curry, fried chicken wing and the soup of the day - Scallop + Abalone's friends (bao bei)... well it taste weird but nice lah.. first time i eat such a sumptuous meal on top of the mount... muahahaa.. must thanks those fit alumni... bringing chicken wings + 2 litre of oil all the way up here... and lotsa more.. There's alot of leftover n dishes to wash , so they came up with an idea... "Ultimate Number"- "zong ji mi ma"... We finished up all the chicken wings and left all the messtin to wilson... haha..

nightfall the minute we started to clear up... some of the girls went to wash up in the icy water... there was some pervert there hiding their video cam near the bushes.. dunno wat the h*** they shooting... soon is bathing time for the rest of the guys, they behaved like kids in the water... laughing and splashing away.. haha so cute...

we setup a mini campfire... telling lame joke n story... as the night get darker, most of them went into the warm n cosy tent for rest... well i cant really sleep well outside.. thus a few of us opened up a few canned of cocktail n lychee for supper.. haha... later in the night, we went to catch prawn, i managed to catch 1 toopid prawn...steady bor...the sky at berkelah was full of star.. FULL of.. so STARRY!!! hope i could captured it on camera... too bad...

.:21th September 2003 6.00am Gurung Berkelah, Kuantan :.

The next morning, we woke up and cooked our breakfast... eat eat eat n do some clearing up... pack up our stuff n unpegged our tents... the weather was kinda warm that morning, so the guys took off their shirt n went in to the river for a final dip of the *heavenly* cool water... bo liao till they started playing base ball using the cooking pot.. silly! haha... we had some fun before we trek down hill... hehe... abit "se bu de" of the times we spent at the campsite... haha...

we aboard the coach at around 1pm and head for a suitable chinese restaurant for lunch.. it was around 5plus that we finally found a chinese restaurant... Well i guess all of them were too hungry, we finished up all the rice in the restaurant... the last table didnt managed to have extra serving of rice...poor thing.. haha.. after dinner, some of us when to the nearby shop and bought some ice-cream and TOYs... Yenpeng bought a packet of sour plum.. well should say SALTY plum... well.. that how we started our "sour plum game"

after the meal, we were only a few hour away from singapore... we played the same LAME game "zhong ji mi ma"... poor david and ronald... they ate up almost half packet of the "salty" plum... "suan mei ming" <- (sour plum fate) david more jialat... cos he didnt have any choice... kana sabotage by jeremy...

in next to no time we reached the johore causeway... hai~ the thought of going back singapore...sianz wor... still think camping life better.. so simple but yet full of "rubbish"... :D looking forward to the BBQ session on the 18th Oct.... *Smilez*
