ADMIN : Had not been updating my own blog recently. Will make an absolute effort to put in more details. Secondly, pic will be online soon to make the blog more readable, so stay tuned. (",)
It was a fine morning when a few of our guys - Kim Song, Eric Ki, Patric Choy, yang, gene, taha and myself carried out a small day trip to climb Mt Coolum and make our way to Noosa. Mt Coolum was kind of the last min, so imagine mi wearing slippers threading through the slippery rocks. Luckily, I got my ODAC training whereby I climbed up Mt Ophir in my slippers. BUt WARNING, as far as one is concerned, it is always good groundmanship to wear proper shoes to prevent sprains, bites and bruises.
Mt Coolum is situated a few bus stops away from my accomodation side. The climb is relatively easy. It is similar to Bukit Timah Hill, slightly lower though. As I reached the top, it brought back fond memories of my trekking days with my best friend, Jeffrey. Though the process of climbing up is extremely tedious, the end results of reaching the top, enjoying the views from the top is something to cherish always. Still remember my younger days when people tell mi - "you siao or not, waste S$2000+++ to torture yourself by trekking in Nepal?" I replied," because it is there and you can see what other people cannot see from above". It rekindles my fire deep within mi to trek and climb higher mountains. My next feasible target may be MT Kinabula with my wife, Huimin. Making it happen is what I need to do amid my hectic schedule.
We proceeded on to Noosa Head. It gave mi a "Holland V cum CHangi village" kind of feeling. Nice beach, people, chill out, alfrenso coffee, etc. When I was walking thorough, I saw a simple outdoor marriage ceremony. THere is a small garden, the bride, bridegroom, 3 pairs of brothers and sisters. Can see from their faces that that day is the happiest day of their lives. It sort of bring back sweet memories of my engagement party on 29 May 2004, less the drinking, of course. :)
Take care, ladies and gentleman.Eng Wei, Chong / Yingwei
