2 trips to perak back to back!
and i've survived but with many ugly bruises.
you can call me BRUISE Almighty.

throughout both trips, i've received enough bruises that i would have gotten in 2 years.
but still, the bruises didn't do much to stop me from learning and enjoying everything!
go away you evil, ugly scars!

the first trip was a trip of faith. on the last night, we managed to start our campfire where everyone barbequed their marshmallows. there was a drizzle in the beginning, and so we, facing the sea, shouted to God in unison to ask Him to stop the rain.
and stop the rain God did!
also, 4 new and unexpected friends came to know and accept Christ!
God is always amazing!

the 2nd trip blew me away!
we went white water rafting and waterfall abseiling - all firsts for me.
whitewater rafting was super duper wuper heart-thumping!!
the waters flowed fast, rocks were aplenty but our captain (aka raft guides) never fail to steer us into safety. there were about 10 major rapids and we rafted about 10km. it was so exhilarating that mere words would not justify the actual activity. i'll upload the photos on blogger once yihao uploads those photos on his online album.

at night, we stayed in orang asli-inspired huts and bathed in the wilderness. the bathrooms don't have roofs so for the last day, when the sun was high up in the sky, we bathed and suntanned at the same time! ha.

michelle went for the trip with me and she was so glad she did. she thanked me for inviting her and even said our church peeps are really friendly ;D can't agree with her more.

this week, i need to recover from the physical activities i had. and yes, finish up those chocolates and share them with others.
i have so many chocolate presents coming in from many people!
no more chocolate presents please.
i feel a bit sick.
