Everest -- into thin air

自从去了EBC就对Everest充满着好奇心。到底Everest summit长的什么样， 会让千千万万的人为她着迷，也为了登上世界最高峰而丢失了性命。 due to the recent avalanche, discovery showing bear grylls everest after the avalanche... mr bear summit Everest at the age of 23... In the show, they did mentioned the Everest incident that happened on 1996, i vaguely remembered what i read when we were back in Kathmandu. We bought the book "into thin air" from a book store in Kathmandu, and got hooked with the content... although the description of Namche, Tengboche and Gorak shep was in 1996, trekking through the same place in the year 2010... everything they describe in the book i can actually paint a vivid image in my mind... There's an upcoming movie "Everest" based on the book into thin air.. Looking forward to it!!!

不知为何听到老歌特别有感触。。。

19 days in nepal...

i almost forgot i need to come back to work in sg...
i switch on my laptop my mouse doesn't work for a second i thought i lost touch with technology...
i have tonnes of drama and tv series waiting for me... i don't know where to start..
i still have 1 more rest day before the crazy monday...
i probably stay up late to do all the laundry and unpacking till sunday...
argghh... coming back to sg seems to give me more headache than staying in the high mountain...

we were so luckily that we managed to trek all the way to EBC... i never thought i might make it, cos i was going really slow... any slower would be like a tortoise.. but it's really worth all the dust and the long journey up there... the view up in the mountains are so surreal, calming and magnificent at the same time... it's hard to drag myself back to SG... 

in this19 days in nepal, there's lot of first time...
first time after going up slope for hours and glad that it's finally over.. namche!!!
first time see snow flakes in tengboche...
first time didn't shower for 4 consecutive days...
first time wake up 4am in the day and sleep as early as 8pm in the night...
first time trek on snow...
first time lost terribly Dai2 to an Ang mo and my friend...(i was pretty well-trained since young) 
first time paragliding in pokahra
first time close encounter with so many yaks yaks yaks..
first time eat dal baht and love it...
first time chit chat for over 6 hours with a stranger we just met that day at the tea house. (ryan from canada, he's so chatty, funny and friendly, but he's into serious business... doing and spreading good deeds and love to the other people.. hmm admirable..) *i think maple leaf is calling, Canada please wait for me*
first time bought a roll of toilet paper at SGD 4 dollars!!
first time drink water with lots of plastic and funny looking alien particles inside...
first time to a snow capped mountain...

there's so much so much to enjoy and to feel about for this nepal trip... i wonder if it's possible for me to go next year... again... namaste nepal.. :) once it's never enough..
