Camp 5 feature built in the wall. Talk about brand identity! |
So the highlight of my day was spending the day rock climbing at Camp 5 with my friends! Five of us went in total: Wl, A, Ks & Kn. This is only my third time rock climbing, but my first time going with my kampung friends.
It was Ks's first time, so we taught him the basics and everything, like the figure 8 knot and how the belay system works. However, only Kn could belay him because Ks weighs quite a bit and if any of us tried, we'd literally fly off the ground. Plus we're not THAT experienced, so we wouldn't know what to do if we flew.
I didn't climb that much today. I only managed one big climb, but all my energy was spent after that, and i couldn't even untie the rope even after i came down. I can be such a girl sometimes. NOT a good thing.
That's me up there! |
The Vista Wall that i mentioned earlier in another post. This time i did the orange, although i had to rest about like ten thousand times. I may be exaggerating, but it was a lot. Sigh. It's not that i'm scared of heights; it's just that i don't have enough strength to haul myself up even if i have a good handhold. Time to go for strength training. *glums*
That's A up there, in orange. |
After that energy-draining climb, i spent most of my time observing how other people climb and helped to belay a bit. I think i'm not much of a hardcore climber, but i guess i like it because it gives me a kind of challenge, plus it makes me feel pumped up, nervous and scared (i think it's the adrenaline) when i'm up real high.

After climbing, we went for dinner around 8 at Dragon-I (Ks's treat!) and ate some pretty good food. Planned to go for a movie with extra buddies around 9.30pm, so after dinner we met up with Ty & S to watch:

The Internship! |
Some parts were pretty funny, and i like that i can relate a little to what kind of obstacles they had to go through. I'd give it a 6/10. Liked it, but i didn't love it. Oh, but i absolutely LOVED the credit titles though. REAL creative.
By the time the movie ended it was already 11.45pm, and Ks had to meet up with his parents. So we agreed to drop him off at the front entrance of the new wing, while A would drop us back at our respective homes. However...there was a dilemma of having to squeeze 7 people into the car.
We jokingly suggested that one of us get into the car boot so that there'll be enough space for everybody, and i was really excited at the thought, so i consented to it! I mean, call me crazy, reckless or irresponsible, but it has been on my bucket list for quite some time now, and this was a great opportunity because the distance wasn't that far, and hey, when am i ever gonna do this in my life? I don't want to waste my youth.
At least now i can say i know how kidnapped people feel. |
But that's not the only thing. After S heard about it, she wanted to try it out too! So we did! Two crazy people laughing away at the back of the car whilst we drove all the way to CP to drop S off. Hilarious, heh.
Got some ice cream on the way home too. McD's Banana Crunch sundae. All in all, it was a great way to end a great day.
& loving it,
Jwen.
