A visit to Sg Lembing 24-26th June 2011…….

Sg Lembing, this considers my second visit. This mountain reminds me of my first time hiking in the past 2 years. I still remembered that we go 5 people by vios without overnight. We depart on 11pm from Kuala Lumpur and arrive there around 3.30pm. We sleep inside the car and brush our teeth at hall. Then, start our hiking at 5pm, everybody look “blur blur” face and legs can’t stand well since no enough sleep. In our mind, it is worth because can have a nice sunrise view. We miss the rainbow waterfall at first time.

The feeling for first time and second time is different cause of we go with friend that we know each other for the first time. While for the second time, I join ODA with such group of people that from different background, education, age, work, attitude and many many more. I realize that with different people to same mountain, will get different output and feeling.

Sg Lembing, the famous place to visit is rainbow waterfall and Bukit Panorama. This rainbow waterfalls need to take 1 and half hour 4-wheel car. Due to the rugged mountain, everybody sway here and there inside the car even some people hit their head, leg until “black green” color. What makes me admire is our friend “yuan yuan” still can sleep comfortable inside the car. After the 4 wheel car, we need to walk and climb the forest around 1 hour to reach our destination. It’s not easy as you think but special stimulation.

Rainbow Waterfall

The beauty and quiet sound of rainbow waterfall make me feel relax and comfortable. The water fall from a height swirling down, it’s like a rain. I really enjoy it a lot with rest my mind. What make me so curious is while we sit at right hand side that without daylight, we can’t see the rainbow appeared. Otherwise, when move to left hand side, the rainbow stick on the rock. This is how magic of the rainbow waterfall. The main reason occurs this situation is激涌的山水自高处倾泻，飞倾的瀑布衝擊在凹凸的岩石上時，溅成无数水珠，經日光折射，幻名為彩虹瀑布.

Sunrise view from Bukit Panorama

There is not much change at Bukit Panorama. The beauty of sunrise and view of cloud are so attractive. Hiking to this Bukit Panorama is just day hike trip without carrying heavy backpack. This is the most relax trip that just takes about 40 minutes to reach viewpoint of Bukit Panorama. The path and stair is relatively easy to hike and it takes 969 steps to go up and down respectively. Bukit Panorama is really beautiful and good place to see the sunrise with a comfortable environment. Unfortunately, laosi, OPY and Puffy ODA Lim can’t have a fun with us during day hike. We only can share the nice photo with them.

Every trip we got new thing to learn, share and accept it. Sharing is caring. I learnt a lot from this trip such as cooperation and helping each other is the most important that we need to standby anytime no matter in what situation. These 3 days 2 night trip allowed us to relax our mind and have a leisure lifestyle. I enjoyed a lot during this trip with eat and sleep that I can’t do it at normal workday. Besides that, it also a good chance to chit chat with everyone, sharing funny stories and talk “cooling” jokes to improve our good friend relationship.

我的第一次爬山就是Gunung Stong Trip.

这座山就让我想起以前的自己，没爬过山的我。记得在2008年那时，刚学院毕业就踏入社会找了第一份工在Banting Ecsso Station 为会计书记，做不久几个月。。有一天晚上接到朋友的一通电话，问我想不想做Parttime 在一间小小的医药房？唔。。有Partime 才做两小时的工。。不错吧。。就这样我的生活就这样的开始了。当时，我的想法就是我的生活就是这样过一生。简简单单的过，不必烦恼，不必担心，没有要求。我的生活就是做工，回家，睡觉。。这样的生活我相信每个人都有过，而我自己也很少出外门，也不爱出外门跟朋友们交流，聚会等等。在医药房也做了几个月，就有一天我朋友约我去爬山。我的第一的疑问和心态是带着好奇的心问我朋友，爬山是不是用绳子爬上去的？？身上需要带些甚么嘛？跟谁去？这座山真的能让我回想到过去的自己。因为Gunung Stong让我在次再次的参与爬山的活动。
The mountain reminds me of my past, I never climb any mountain before. I remember in 2008 when I just graduated I found a first job in Banting Ecsso Station as accounting clerk . . One night a friend, asked if I wanted to do Parttime job in a clinic? Well. . Two hours for part time work. . Pretty good. . My life began. At that time, I thought that my life will remain the same,  simple, not too worry, there is no requirement. My life is work, home, sleep. . This kind of life I believe everyone has had, and I rarely go out, do not like to socialize with friends, or participate in any event and so on. After work at the clinic for few months, there is one day my friend invited me to mountain climbing. My first question is with a curious mind and heart to ask my friends, use climbing rope to climb it is ? ? What to bring??? With Who? Gunung Stong always make me brought back memories....

我加入了ODA有四年了，爬了不少座的山。每一次参与都是跟很多来自不同的背景，学历，年龄，职业，和不同的性格的参与者。唯一一样的就是。。“一起爬山到顶峰”每一座山都有他的特别和美景。而Gunung Stong 的特别就是他拥有七层的瀑布，日出，在Campsite Baha 可以看着那遥远的山景。让我觉得好舒服，好温软。只可惜，我们去不到Campsite Baha 过一夜。Campsite Baha 真的很美，地方大，又有的看日出。。。没关系，这次看不到，下次我们一定看得到。。。因为，这座山的出名度也来也红。。系统也一直的在改变。报名费，放车费，森林票等等。还有就是我很不认同G的说法，Puffy 不能上山，因为经过外边的每一个人的投票，真的不公平！！不过，老师时常告诉我们，来到别人的地方，就要尊重他们。比起以前我们真的很幸运。
I joined ODA four years, went to numbers of mountain. Every trip, there are many from different backgrounds, education, age, occupation, and the different character of the participants. The only thing is the same. . "climbed to the summit, " Every mountain has its specialty and views. Gunung Stong specialty is that it has seven steps waterfalls, sunrise, distant mountain view from Campsite Baha. Made me feel so comfortable, good and gentle everytime I starred at it. Unfortunately, we did not camp at Campsite Baha this trip. Campsite Baha really beautiful, great place, and also see the sunrise. . . However, It does not matter, next time we will see it. . . Because the mountain is well known . . System has been keep changing. Registration fee, parking fare, tickets and so forest entrance fee. I do not agree with Guide there to say, Puffy is not allow to enter the mountains, really not fair! ! However, teachers often told us that we are at someone's else place, we must respect them.

Gunung Stong 的路程，没有甚么变，瀑布还是这么的美，这么的吸引人。当我走到我以前的路段，都会出现一些画面在那。好怀念。。。那些人，那些食物，那晚的汤圆，瞄瞄走不动，Yan Mum 和 Kent 一路带她走，直到晚上才到Campsite Baha.那晚大家都把晚餐准备好了，那时刻大家的心情很担心，直到她到了的那一刻。。。哈哈！！大家的心情都高兴了起来。。。好感动！！(刚刚去打开以前的照片，原来我去过了两次Gunung Stong) 这些画面是不会在重来，只能收在心里。而这一次，第一次在Gunung Stong night walk, 真的有不错的感觉，不辛的是Wee Lee 不小心跌了一脚，伤到了眼角。让大家都很操及。多谢Simpson 扶他到Campsite.


Gunung Stong trail, there is not much changes, the beauty of waterfalls, still so attractive. Pictures after picture appear in front of me, reminded on previous trips scenarios. I really miss. . . Those people, the food, the night of the glutinous rice balls, Miao Miao walk, Yan Mum and Kent all the way taking care of her, until the night before they reached Campsite Baha. That night we get the dinner ready, and that moment everyone's feelings are concerned Until the moment she reaching to us. . . Ha ha! ! Everyone's mood is happy again. . . Touching! ! (Just to open the previous photos, the original I've been to Gunung Stong twice) all these picture is not going to appear again, but only stay close at heart. This time, the first time in Gunung Stong night walk, really good feeling, Wee Lee accidentally fell, and hurt his eyes. Everyone is worried and Thank you Simpson helped him to Campsite.


这一次大家都带着“我不醉，我不醉，不醉，请你别担心我”的心情把这座山给完成。谢谢你们大家。。Jess Teo,Lim Vui, Simpson, Boon Tzong,Jacky Koh, Kar Ping, Sim Mei, Wee Lee, Huey Khim, Hui Sim, Jeanettne Liew, Hooi Sun, Chai Hong Chu Yao. 特别谢谢ODA Committee　Pang Siew Ting, Ang Chian Nii, Ms.Puffy and 我们的老师Ms.Lim Kwee Hoon.

This time our theme is "I'm not drunk, I'm not drunk, not drunk, you do not worry about me"mood to the mountain to complete the trip. Thank you all. . Jess Teo, Lim Vui, Simpson, Boon Tzong, Jacky Koh, Kar Ping, Sim Mei, Wee Lee, Huey Khim, Hui Sim, Jeanettne Liew, Hooi Sun, Chai Hong Chu Yao. special thanks to ODA Committee Pang Siew Ting, Ang Chian Nii, Ms.Puffy and our Teacher Ms.Lim Kwee Hoon.

G. Angsi Expedition

Yet, another journey has started for me. But one thing I found out was that whenever I'm going back to climb a mountain, my heart just can't stop pacing up, thinking what's next and what's going to come next. Well, taking photos are one of my task during trip like these, it's a new style of improving my skills and to train myself. Thanks again to the trip leader for organizing this wonderful trip for all of us. Including committees and of course participants who joined this unforgettable trip! Though some of you might be new, including me myself, its a whole new level of experience than any other things you do in life. No one's going to climb a mountain when they are free, unless there's something so special in you which pushes you to do it. so don't worry, you're normal =)

Every trip there will be something new for us to learn, and every trip I accomplished, I would promise myself to love mother nature more, sharing it to my friends who can't climb mountain and telling them how i felt whenever rubbish are simply left in the jungle or river, burning of plastic and stuff, it's all absurdity.

Again, special thanks to Laoshi, committees that helped me along the way, and all of you great participants!

Share this picture with you which I found I really liked it, to officially end my post and this trip and of course, the beginning of the trip to come! =)

It shows the back of a mountain climber, how much they have to face before they reach the top and of course, the self-actualization that has been obtained. It's applying to both you and me. Take the leap and challenge yourself next trip to come!

Gunung Angsi Expedition 2011 April 09th-10th

我想了整整一个星期多，我真的不知道要怎么写这次的感言。。。不知如何开始写。。。我只好把自己给关在房间里。。 。。。

十二月份老师，我和Chian Nii. 三个人去做Premaking Gunung Angsi。也是我第一次低达到这里。跟了ODA这么多年，也爬了不少座山。怎么还会有第一次呢？哈哈！！这也不出奇啦。有些时候是因为时间的问题，或者是命运的问题。（命运在玩弄人吗？）Premaking 过后，还有几个月就要准备时间表和工具和道具。本以为想时间还很长，有很多时间。可是，不知不觉时间也过的好快。还有一个月就是要去Gunung Angsi 了。也给我觉得很压力，日历一天一天的在我眼里的撕去，心情也一天的比一天的繁重。我怎么啦？？ 担心吗？。。。最后，我还是选择用冷静的心情去面对。。在这期间，要谢谢老师，Pang, Chian Nii, Phei Ying, Adrian and Sian Seong. 一直的在努力，精神，贡献和支持。

2011 Apr 08th, 那一天晚上，大家都在准备食物，工具和道具。在这种时间，时刻，人群，空气，哪个气氛, 力量。。跟以往的气氛不一样了。我怎么啦？Pang, Ming Rueng, Andy, Fu Yaw, Huey Woon, Yee Jin, GG，Chen Shen。。。时间每一年每一天每一分每一秒都在改变。时间不能重回吗？（哈哈！！我想的太天真了啦）时间怎么能重回呢? 。。。。。。。。。。？？

Gunung Angsi 2011 Apr 09th-10th, 每当我参与每次的爬山活动，终会有一个愿头。安全的到达,安全的到家，要大家平安的到家。一个最间单的愿望。。组长 Group 1, 2, 3 你的安排都很好。只是，我们要把食物好好的供用。

好了，我也不想多写啦。。。哈哈哈！！在这里要谢谢大家的参与。
