A bunch of us – Cely, Hong Kiat, Earl-ku, Szelin, Andrew, Chelva, Bratt, Lee Yee and myself, gallivanted to Bukit Tinggi over the weekend, for some do-it-yourself steamboat (wonderfully organized by Cely) and booze (arranged by Earl-ku). A relaxed outing that I found it a little too muted by my high standards.

The view from the Meranti apartment was kinda magnetizing (though I’m more of an island person). I had chapati and some pandan buns for dinner and lunch respectively prior to this outing, and felt the full brunt of it later at night, where I wobbled and clambered to not zonk out. A borderline hypoglycaemic.

After dinner, we gallivanted through the darkness, aided by moonlight, to the middle of nowhere, and came to a clearing with bungholes the size of Singapore. Then, Chelva and I, from a distance, witnessed the sight of Earl-ku going all kukujiao-ed about spiders by lunging his sandals at their nests to destruct the web. The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Spiders wouldn’t have been too amused.

The trip was too short. And the rain at Colmar didn’t help either, though I enjoyed watching the ladies – Cely, Lee Yee, Szelin and Andrew – making dogs out of balloons with a help of a clown. All in all, a subdued sashay for me, thanks to LENT.

Lucifer Oh horny one, I’m organizing a camping/cave exploration outing to Gunung Senyum, Pahang, on 6th to 8th April, you’re most welcome to take our souls then, but I think you’ll be disappointed to know that my friends have already sold their souls to you ages ago.

March 8th, 2007 at 7:50am
Lee Yee Well, I really do hope you had a great time, and also hope that you do join us for further excursions, promise it won’t be as boring as Bukit Tinggi, as the next big one would be on an island.
Lucifer Oh horny one, I should be there around 8pm-ish, as I only finish work at 7pm. If you’re going, keep a lookout for a baldy with goatee…

Erm..doesn’t this sound inappropriate? An article named bukit tinggi ‘’steamboat” with nothing mentioned or even just touched on steamboat..it’s as if i ordered a bowl of wantan which is served without the wantan..
June 23rd, 2008 at 10:25am
when can we do something like this again?
June 28th, 2008 at 10:26am
