PD Trip - 27th & 28th June
On the last week of my semester break, I went to P.Dickson with my secondary school friends. There are two meeting points. I met up with my friends at WMS at 8.50am, right on time. Left there around 9.10am. Met with those friends who left from Bukit Jalil at USJ R&R. Reach the destination around 12pm. Put our bags into the bungalow(Ayer Hitam bungalow) and out for lunch!! The bungalows there are named after name of places...Muar, Ayer Hitam....
After lunch, it is time to clean the bungalow.. I didn't expect it to be clean and it was much worse than what I expected. Phew... Activities started.. Mahjong, cards, chess and so on. The guys, including me played volleyball... First time playing in my entire life. We also played some "not so rough" rugby, using a volleyball.
In the evening, we went to the beach nearby. 9 of us went for a banana boat ride. It was quite slow because there are so many of us. Those who didn't go for the ride went back to the bungalow first to prepare dinner. Soon, everyone helped to prepare dinner. Spaghetti---> tomato and cabanera.. Mushroom soup from Campbell, a lot of sausages, egg salad and fruit salad. Can opener was left in KL. Process of opening the cans include barbecue sticks, hammer and scissors.. Haha. Cincau and lemonade was perpared too. Finally, dinner was served around 10pm.
Of course, the activities didn't just end there. The night is still young!! Some of us played mahjong and few of us started to try to finish the Heinekens and gin that was brought there. Each of us will choose a card. The person with the lowest will have to drink some of the gin/beer. The epic event that happened was when Sze Jian destroyed the mah jong pyramid with his leg... You can't imagine it if you weren't there. Everyone went to sleep at 3am. Only a few cans of beer left.
The room was cold. I was directly hit from the cold air from the air-con. Plus, there was no blanket. I didn't feel the coldness until 3 hours later. Sprang up from the bed, can't sleep at all. Quickly change into trackbottom and wore a jacket. Freaking cold...
Second day...
After checking out, we went to the Teluk Kemang beach. Wonder why the local authorities structure the drainage system this way... the drain water is let to flow into the sea. You can see the drain once you stepped on the beach. What a nice welcome. Anyway, we just had coconuts.
We left PD at 3.30pm. Not long after getting into the van, I think most of us fell asleep. The two vans parted ways at USJ R&R, which is also the meeting point.
This is an special experience and memory worth to be treasured. Although we did not relax much at PD, well, we worked together in many ways--> cleaning the bungalow? This will seldom happen during gatherings. Many things which I seldom do at home, maybe few times in a year, I did most of it here.
