Road trip updates

How are we going there?

The plan is something like this.

Go by bus?

Go by car?

Go by train?

Erm, is eveyone free on the 2nd week of july?

Friends > Parents?

Is it true that friends are more important than parents?
If I ask, most people will answer NO!
However, sometimes it’s just shameful to see how different we treat friends than parents.

Situation 1:

A)
Mum: Boy ah, can you help me get something from the grocery store ah?
Boy: Ma, lazy la, go get it yourself k?! Or haih, buy what again larrr???

B)
Girlfriend: Darling ah, i feel like eating tou fu fa all of a sudden la...
Boy: okie, no problem, I’ll get you tou fu fa within spilt seconds!

Situation 2:

A)
Mum: Boy ah, lets go shopping lo, it’s been a decade since I last shopped.. T_T
Boy: urrmm.. Ma, I got tonnes of homework laa, I’m sorry....

B)
Friend: Woi Boy, tonight yam cha ON?
Boy: ON!!!! Where? Where! Where? Time?!

Situation 3:

A)
Friend: hey, how did you celebrate father’s day ah?
Boy: aiyo, no need celebrate la, waste money, now broke adi you know?!

B)
Friend: hey, how did you celebrate your girlfriend’s birthday ah?
Boy: ooohhH, I bought her LV, GUCCI, PRADA and a pair of NIKE shoes. =)

Situation 4:

A)
Friend: When is your dad’s birthday ah?
Boy: urm... September 22? Erm, no i think October 22.. aiyaa I don’t remember laaaa

B)
Friend: When is your girlfriend’s birthday ah?
Boy: 10 November 1990! I’m freaking sure!!!!!

Many many more.....

You might find it funny, but somehow that’s just the reality...
Sometimes, you find it hard to communicate with parents,
Everytime you talk to them, it will just end up with a quarrel
so you rather don’t talk/ talk less to them.
But think again, why?
Did you treat them the way you treat your friends?
Are you being patient enough with them?
Is the way you talk appropriate?
Did you show understanding for your parents?

At times, you can be very forgiving to friends,
You can forgive them for whatever wrong they did to you,
But sometimes you just can’t stand your parents for asking you to do something you don’t like to do;
Then you can angry at them for one whole day.

I think it's really unfair this way...
We definitely can’t deny the fact that they the one who brought us to this world,
So, be forgiving, respectful, understanding, caring, loving, and patience to them just like how you always treat your friends....

Mt. Kinabalu?

From the title, you might expect this "King Scout" to boast about how great he was,

about how pro/fast/easy/unchallenging it was for him to conquer Mount Kinabalu.

But! No! King Scout is certainly not going to boast about that. However it was true that its level of difficulty still considered "moderate" for King Scout. =D

Before I go KK, I heard lots of saying about this tallest mountain in Malay Archipelago,

Some say....

"Aiyahhh, you must really go for training ah, if not boleh mati ooo"

Some say....

"20 years ago I went it was terrible, but now, it has stairs everywhere, and the paths are nicely built, zero difficulty"

Some say....

"Aiyahhh, as long as you got legs, no prablemmm laaar"

Obviously, being an optimistic person, I took the positive comments and ignore those that demotivate/frightening.

and so, I went Mt. Kinabalu with two different characters/mentalities,

One, as a King Scout who overly underestimated Mt. Kinabalu.

Second, as an innocent boy who seriously got cheated by those comforting comments about how easy it is to conquer Mt. Kinabalu.

Actually, there are two trails to the summit, one is via "Timpohon Gate" the other is via "Mesilau Gate".

Damn the guide who brought of to Mesilau Gate!

Why? because this two gates don't differ just by the name, but distance too.

Mesilau pathway is 2 km+ longer!!

Well, whats the big deal right,

Mesilau way has more worth-seeing sceneries,

Moreover I'm the "King Scout".

No fear. =P

So, the total distance is around 11.2 km from the bottom until the summit.

But, for your information, to conquer Mt. Kinabalu, it's not a matter of 5 hours to 10 hours but at least 2 days 1 night.

Basically from starting till half hill, it is around 8.2 KM.

You might be thinking there,

8.2?? I press on my BMW accelerator only, within 10 minutes I can simply go 10 km~

The reality is that, we took 10 hours just to reach the half hill.

From Morning 9:30am till Night 7:30pm.

For seconds, I thought I can't feel my own legs.

We had the most "tastiest" dinner at half hill and went to sleep at 9:30pm.

The shelter was as bad as the food.

2am in the morning, not even the cocks have gotten up, I mean the roosters,

we already awaken by the mountain guide and we got to start climbing up the peak before the sun rises.

8 of us went Mt. Kinabalu but only 6 attempted to reach the top.

From half hill to the Summit (Low's Peak), at least 3 freaking hours. (2.7km)

In the darkness, I didn't sleep well, in bad condition with a little headache, I climbed like a thirsty puppy sticking its tongue out.

Just while I was deeply exhausted after 1 and half hour climbing,

I saw million of stars blinking in the sky,

I thought I've reached the peak, but I was wrong,

so, I perservered and kept climbing,

At point when I saw more and bigger stars, as if I could reach them,

yet it wasn't the peak yet.

Again, I perservered, I told myself I must reach the top,

Or else, where am I going to hide myself with the name of "King Scout".

Suddenly, a feeling of stomach grinding,

I wasn't hungry, just that I need to unleash something that has trapped inside my anus for at least 48 hours.

But, hell, where to find toilet in the middle of the mountain??

Hell No I gonna shit in my pants or to turn back.

So, I kept climbing with slow pace.

Until I reached the Peak!!

4095.2 m

God, I finally did it...

The feeling of proud and satisfaction,

the feeling of I can do it!

Anyway out of the 6 who tried to reach the peak,

only 4 managed to reach.

We watched the sunrise,

We took a million of photos,

Joy and happiness that not words could describe =D

However, there was still something that upset me,

but it wasn't the cold weather up there which made me shiver,

or the pressure that made me feel uncomfortable,

it was the stomach-grinding.

It was as if forcing an immediate release of the "detainees" inside my anus.

We were told by the mountain guide to leave as soon as we saw the sunrise,

cause soon, there will be fog as a result of water evaporation

and that could simply blind our way and could be pretty dangerous.

Considering that Mt. Kinabalu is so sacred according to legend,

I never thought of taking a crap there =P

but with the "encouragement" of the mountain guide saying that the sacred Mr. Mt. Kinabalu will forgive me for my emergency,

I took a crap behind a huge rock!

*Careful if you go next time, don't step on it =D

Going up and coming down from the peak took us 6 hours.

We had breakfast at half hill,

then around 11:20 am, we start rushing downhill using a shorter way,

but still that took us another 5 hours.

10 hours to reach half hill

6 hours up and down the Summit

5 hours from half hill to the ground.

Total of 21 hours walking and climbing.

not so tough afterall~ not even one day yet.

Sap sap sui la....

Road Trip

Before the road trip could be planned..

There are a few things to be clarified.

First...

1) Transport...

2) Lodgings

3) When are we free

4) How many people are we going with

5) Where are we stopping before reaching

What I had in mind was travelling to pantai remis

before heading to Penang.

Erm.. 1 day at remis and maybe 2-3 days at penang.

Any

suggestions anyone?

Ivan's Hiatus

Ivan's post count has been quite minimal, in comparison to the other members of Pangeelapong. Far, surpassed by htenneK and Kian Min, Ivan's indolence grabbed the better of him. With two prominent members of Pangeelapong being away on holiday at the same state, it is up to the others to update the blog roll, keeping it alive. And here Ivan steps into stage, with something hopefully amusing to read. LOL

How long has it been since we last met? That comes to mind when I think of the Pangeelapongers. Our last meet was at Tekala Falls, and those memories stand vivid within my memories. What about our road trip? Will it still occur? Still wondering, I am. There is a reason why this was mentioned in the first place. After having been missing in action, changes in an individual is sure to occur.

Firstly, I notice that I no longer attempt to infuse my usual style of writing into this post. This might be a relief to certain individuals, as it might be easier to read. Partially, this could also be a result of my indolence, always seeking alternatives as a solution to an obstacle. And hence, this is a product of my effort, partially supported by laziness :)

Secondly, my hair has grown much longer than when we had last met. I think there's no need for explanation on this. Why I haven't been cutting it? It is due to my lack of imagination on what I should do with it, especially on how to style it. And hence, I tend to leave it this way, just growing longer and longer from how it is.

Thirdly, I no longer wear glasses.

I still am quite blank when it comes to a post like this :( This will have to do lah x) And here lies my update on the holiday recently. Till I get more ideas then.

My Adventure to Kota Kinabalu

Guys, I'm going to Sabah tomorrow.

Many people go sabah for those famous beaches/islands, seafood like lobster, crab and etc.

Unlike others, my main purpose there is to "try my best" to conquer Mt. Kota Kinabalu.

For those who have no idea about what the heck is Mt. Kota Kinabalu,

Mt. Kota Kinabalu is located in Sabah, its summit height is 4095 metres above sea level.

It is the tallest mountain in Malay Archipelago.

Haih, always wonder, whyyy??

People pay for vacation, I pay for vacation;

people pay to enjoy, I pay to suffer.

K la,

No doubt, King scout is still king scout,

it's not like he will fear of something just 4095 metres above sea level.

Anyway, whoever is reading this blog now,

please pray for me and my mum.

With your prayer and God's blessing

Hopefully we can conquer the mountain without any problem.

I'll be back on the 22nd.

and for those who miss me on the days when I'm not around,

contact me through my Digi number,

I only bring one phone!

take care everyone and my dear pangeelapongers =P

Mt. Kota Kinabalu!! Here I come!!

My Movies Compilation

Whats your best record if you ever experienced "Movies Marathon"?

3 Perhaps? the most 4 I supposed?

For me, it was FIVE,

Amazing hor??

but it happened in my dream.... =D

Last night I had a dream, a weird one,

it was the compilation of five movies:

I Corrupt All Cops

Angels & Demons

X-men Origins
Terminator Salvation

Night at the Museum 2

I didn't know all these movies actually make up a nice script.

So this is the synopsis of my dream.

ICAC = I Corrupt All Cops

AD = Angels and Demons

XO = X-men Origins

TS = Terminator Salvation

NM = Night at the Museum 2

SYNOPSIS:

The story began with a man (Chief Inspector of FBI also the main character = ME) who lost his lover. [ICAC] His lover was raped and murdered by a criminal (Seng Hong) who had been evading police's capture for many years. Apparently, this criminal was active in crime again and this time he kidnapped most of the MUTANTS with his knowledge of science and technology to help experimenting his new detrimental weapon. [AD & XO] The criminal's act captured the world's attention and he threatened the world with his on-going invention that could damage the entire universe. Like Angels & Demons, this criminal hid the mutants and carried out his experiment in his secret base. For many years the police tried to look for his secret base but they failed. However, this time, with the helps of MUTANTS, expert archaeologist, historian, gynaecologist and forensic bomb expert, clues were gradually starting to surface and finally the Cops found the criminal's base! Apparently, they found the base before Seng Hong (the criminal) invented his detrimental bio-weapon. Considering that there were a lot of innocent hostages kidnapped by Seng Hong in the base and also the chemicals in his lab might cause a great explosion, the police didn't destroy the whole base. On the contrary, they went into his base to hunt for Seng Hong. The setting of Seng Hong's base was the combination of Terminator's Robot's and Night at the Museum's settings, it looked so ancient yet equiped with modern technology. [TS & NM] The base was full of traps. Besides, Seng Hong released many mutants and robots that were re-programmed to kill the cops. There were a lot of fighting and shooting scenes, just like ICAC, AD, XO and TS. Lastly, ME found Seng Hong. As a result of many cops were sacrificed, ME confronted Seng Hong alone. In the fight, ME dropped his gun. ME fought Seng Hong with bare-hand. That was when Seng Hong took out his handgun and pointed at ME with an evil laugh. ME quickly jumped toward Seng Hong, grabbed his gun then vigilantly shot Seng Hong at his lung. Seng Hong's lung burst... , ME feeling relieved. Just while ME thought everything had finally come to an end, Seng Hong took out another gun and tried to shoot ME. ME again vigilantly grabbed the gun and shot Seng Hong at his private part and said "That's for my girl!", Seng Hong shouted in pain.. Ouuuchhhh.....

ME then talked to Seng Hong about how unappreciative he was toward his life and his mother. Seng Hong finally aware of his mistakes, but it was all too late...

*The End*

Anyway it was a real dream, just that it wasn't as detailed as I described above. =D

The criminal who appeared in my dream was really Sing Hong, my roommate.

haha, anyway it was just a dream.

No offense Sing Hong =P

Reason why I got this dream is still unknown,

perhaps I watched too many movies recently =P

Driving the family car :)

As all of you

pangeelapongers know,

I got my lesen memandu :)

wakakaka...

So... I waited patiently

for my Dad to come

home from China so I could use the car.

My car = Unser is left alone for several

months.

Because it is a stick shift, my dad thought it

will be easier to maneuveur with city roads

with an auto.

So as I was saying, I am going to drive the Unser.

My first destination was to drive them to

Mid Valley.

At NIGHT !!!!

Omg, it was frickin scary.

I could not rally estimate the distance and stuff.

At some point, I drove the car towards the

left side.

Some point, I forgot to pull the handbrake at the bukit.

But overall, I was a safe driver.

My max speed was 40 :)

Asiasoft Gamefest

I went to the game comepetition

with my team last Saturday.

We went to compete

against other teams in

Sudden Attack.

My team consists of

Me

My brother

and his 3 friends.

We went there by

car driven by friend's mom.

When we arrived at 1 utama,

the place was still empty.

Such punctuality is hard to

come by.

We went to the comeptition venue,

and found that it was quite packed.

We went for breakfast at Burger King.

We then waited for more that 3-4 hours.

During the waiting duration,

we watched as the other teams

played their match.

At last, our turn came.

We were pitted against

[ESP] Naga, an all time champion.

I was like what the f**k.

We were still new to this scene and

we were suppose to go against the pros

during the first game?

As predicted, complications came up.

I could not familiarise myself with the mouse and

nad to toggle with it.

I brought my own mouse but the cable

was too short.

We got trashed,,,, badly.

The next match was between us and

Chronos [IMQ].

Omg, this team originates from

a cyber cafe called Chronos Cafe.

So, I can assume that they play 24/7.

As predicted again, we got trashed badly.

Finally we were up against a team

called UnionForce.

Wakakaak, this team is super noob.

We trashed them :)

It was relieving that we won because they

looked like professional players :)

Stef met up with me

and gave me this

Starbucks free cofffee thingy.

Thanks stef :)

After the match ended, we could not find our way out

because 1 utama is frickin big.

So I had to use my GPS(Global Positioning by Stefanie)

I called up Stef and asked her for directions.

Super stupid move, but she managed to give me directions L:)

Thanks again :)

The day ended with me lying on my

bed basking in sore defeat.

Tiring week!

This week is such a tiring week!!!!

I spend my whole last week relaxing in my room with warcraft, OTH, Gossip girl & facebook!

but this week is just so tiring, rushing & exhausting!!!

Before i get to the tiring part, let me show u my imba score.. it's just TD btw..

Wednesday- 

Helped my mom to run errants.. Drove her around from bank to bank, 

made a LOT of payments.. Then, rushed to MV to meet up with my 

looooong lost cousins from Singapore! 

I havent seen them for more than 10 freggin long years!

And it was so good to see them.. i just realised i missed all the fun times we had last time.

Before everything happened.. Everything that changed my attitude & lifestyle.

Thursday- 

Went back to my highschool, Sek Seri Suria to get my SPM cert which i was 

suppose to take earlier...There are so many changes in my old school now!

too bad i dont have the chance to use them :(

After that, we used a looooong way to uni from Suria. Suria is in Hulu Langat. 

Szelin & I thought that using the back road will be much closer to Uni..

But we ended up using a much much much longer & winded road to Uni..

and guess what, we passed through Sg, Tekala too.. lol... 

Man, that was a really long drive.

When we arrived Uni, we had to rush one of our highschool friend's assignment. 

Szelin made some deal with him. So, she had to do his assignment for him.

**miss ya all. =)

~Jess L Lyn

If thats how you dress?!

urmm, where to start..

Today, I am lifeless as usual.

Hanging out with friends seems to have become one of my daily routine,

I've been doing it for past few weeks anyway...

but whats wrong?

Meeting with friends, strengthen the bonding with each other,

However, looking from my parents' point of view,

they might not have the same idea~

as they might think getting a proper job/doing something more meaningful may be a wiser way of spending my long holiday.

So, being a rebellious kid, yes! I went LEPAK with friends again,

and our plans of the day were:

1. Breakfast

2. Show my friend the way to Shangri-La hotel.

3. Go Low Yat and buy computer stuffs.

4. Do survey on a few restaurants for the best location & best package for our gathering in August!

Most of the plans above need to be done in KL, the Capital of Malaysia.

A place which is well-known of its over-crowdedness, but not as bad as New Delhi in India.

As I drove passed every buildings and streets,

I saw people walking... haha

I mean, ya! whats wrong with people walking???!!

You don't need a license to walk~

and not necessarily people need to drive?!!

Right????

Sometimes I think perhaps they really have made a right choice,

at least they won't stuck in Jam... as far as I know, there is no human-jam yet in KL.

Yet, I still find really shocked, funny, worried and crazy today when I saw this particular pedestrian.

Why?

Was it because the way he walked?

No.

Was it because he looked like a monkey?

No.

Or was it because he was crazy?

urm.. Sort of

Seeing him, I started to worry about the coming generation,

Will this become the future trend??

Will people regard this as something fashionable??

I don't know... I really don't

You might think I over-exaggerate on this particular person,

but if you see him with your own eyes,

you might have the same thought as me...

This was how he dressed...

Enjoy, my bad drawing. =D

Apparently, my friends were attracted by the "bush".

anyway, I did consider that he is insane~ but he didn't seem like it.

=D

Lastly, I would say, I'll never allow my kids to dress like this later.
