I saw the BBSS photo we took in OB Sabah, either before or after the Mt. Kinabalu climb...I COULDN'T SEE MYSELF! OMG!
Yeah, I was helluva dark, like I camo-ed among my fellow BBSS people. Yeah, everyone was dark!
To think that this photo MAY appear on the presentation during school sometime next year.
And I have to show how OB Sabah helped me, like being more initiative. Thats hard, coz I always love to sit back and relax.
Its gonna be a hard year ahead of me, my academic results and such. I sure hope I can 'retire' out of CCA soon, like April...or maybe even earlier.
Hmmz, nothing to say.
Probably I'll post scenic views of OB Sabah when I get the photos.

Till then,
^__________^

Back from OBS Sabah. I have become sooo dark! Don't think I'm even tanned, maybe charcoal would be a better word to describe. I got bitten by mosquitoes, billions of em. Now it left a dark disgusting mark on my hands and legs. I'm furiously applying Wheat Germ Oil to remove the traces...XP
OBS was kinda fun, my group ROXXORS! Different people being stuck together for 12 whole days.
They are nice people and I'm the only one NOT in UG group lolz!
All I need to do now is to enjoy the remaining days at home before school reopens and all hell breaks loose. ^______^

Back from Egypt! Finally. I suffered stomach flu during Cairo cause I ate too much of their Oily rice ~_~. But thank god the guide gave me local charcoal pills ~_~. Went on "diet" and it contained only porridge, it tasted SO GOOD. Cause I was starving ^.-.
I finally finished MATHS HOMEWORK. With quite a few blanks sad to say. BUT ITS DONE! ^.^v.
Only ENGLISH, CHINESE AND MUSIC.
Later I have to leave for OBS Sabah. My cousin is going too! But earlier LOL.
Probably he will be my 'recon' and probably I'll see his baggage and borrow it...Muahahahahaha~.
I just noticed how slow I was in games...esp DotA...>.< playing it seems like sitting on the edge of the chair >.<
No games now, Guild Wars was kind of ugly and RAN Online got boring cause my bro's not playing.
Some are playing Maple and Gunbound...doesn't really appeal to me haha.
Any games? I think I'll die from too much WC3.

Philae (Formerly Egelika) - Temple of Philae was cut up into pieces and moved to the island of Egelika cause' it was in danger of being flooded by the River Nile and thus UNESCO and the Egyptian Goverment salvaged this temple and moved it here. Cool! This temple is devoted to the favourite goddess Isis. (Pronouced I-SIS [Not IS-IS, like me >.<]) Posted by Picasa
