1. No. What you see near the bottom is not fire but grass.
2. I prefer windows of uniform sizes.
3. This is supposed to be a treehouse and not anything else.
4. Note the keyword is "supposed".

For those of you in the know, i was sent in exile to the glorious peaks of Gunung Ledang over the national day holdays. Gunung Ledang, or Mt. Ophir as it is more commonly known, is located in the land far far away of Johor. Anyhow, it was a 3 days 2 night expedition. We set off from RJC right after national day celebrations at 11am. Crossed customs and all quite smoothly and then stopped for lunch at the good ol' rest stop at Yong Peng. Ate the toughest chicken (or leather) rice there and then it was another 2 more hours before we reached the foot of Gunung Ledang. And the first thing that greeted us was a stupid form that required us to declare every bit of packaging and clothing that we brought up and they were supposedly going to check our stuff when we came down to ensure we had not dumped anything up in the mountain. After that, we were off on our ardous climb to base camp which we reached in about 2 hours.
We had to make use of whatever precious daylight we had left to quickly cook and pitch our tents. Had an early night only to be awaken at 4am for sentry duty. And i woke up to extreme cold that was quite unexpected. Was quite scary to even step out of the tent but we got out all the same. Sentry duty saw me doing the most productive thing one can do on sentry. Sleep.
The next day's climb started quite late after some delays and poor Marie couldn't climb as she had asthma. My group (comprising Michelle, Licui, Ely, Melho, Kenneth, Yee Sian, Shawn Tan, Gerald Tay and onemorememberwhoweshallnotname) was quite quiet throughout the climb but it was interesting to talk and get to know everyone better. Started the climb by learning some Malay (awak busok indeed) and to the singing of hips don't lie. Reached checkpoint after checkpoint quite uneventfully. Then we reached KFC, which wasn't as intimidating as thought and there were actually ladders to greatly aid our climb. Then there was the sixty degree incline with 3 ropes running down that required a lot of arm strength but it was really cool. Also, there was the checkpoint Taman Kambing that was like a misty bamboo forest. There was also Taman Bonsai, with its extremely paranomic view (and the near wedgie by geraldtay). As we neared the summit, it got comfortably colder and the view, more splendid. Finally reached the summit which was spectacular, full stop. Took our photos and had our food before we were made to climb down again.
The climb down was swift and quite uneventful. Some things worth mentioning would be the bee attacks and shawn tan's bitchfeste that lasted a whole checkpoint. We returned to base camp to see Marie greet us enthusiastically. Dinner was rice with some canned chicken and canned peanuts and the broccoli which i was made to fry. It won accolades from everyone and was generally agreed that broccoli will feature in our next trip. The cheng tng also turned out quite well even though we had a sugar crisis.
Campfire was some cool game that benho, shawn tan and thomas came up with and it was played most enthusiastically. Basically it was a refined cluedo game and each group had to have a representative to answer questions correctly or complete an activity to get a clue. The questions ranged from the mind boggling (like how many times was the ndp held in the padang) to the cunningly-phrased (like when was the last time the ndp is held at the national stadium). Finally ended with singing of national day songs and everyone was damn high, being in a home away from home. On national day no less. The night ended with Mr Leong's debrief and it was off to sleep at 11.30.
For a mere 4 hours, before kenneth woke me up for my sentry. After half an hour, we stopped the chitter chatter and prepared breakfast. Pancakes. Considering that none of us had experience making pancakes, it can be said that it was a fantastic job, but flipping pancakes for 3 hours is no joke and smelling more than 80 pancakes gets quite sian but the aroma was still good enough to kill.
I forgot to mention that halfway through the night, it rained and woke me from my sleep. For once, it never felt so scary and assured at the sound of rain. Scary to hear the loud sounds of the rain bearing down on your tent, and your tent threatening to fall under the weight of the water. And yet assuring to know that you're safe and warm inside that dome shaped canvas that is your tent, sheltering you from an otherwise less desireable fate.
Packed up the campsite and left swiftly but the climb down was what i found to be the most tricky and difficult one of the whole journey. The heavy backpack, coupled with the slippery ground and occassional thorn here and there. It was quite lucky that we only had one sprain ankle.
Lunch was at some plantation place which served up very good lunch and chendol. Not to mention the spread of durains, mangostene and rambutans. Mr Leong literally forgone lunch and had durians for his lunch instead. It was quite fun sitting out in the grass and having an "outdoor dining" experience with group C. Michelle Ooi and me were practically killing ourselves over the durians and Mr Leong kept urging us to eat more. Finally we left after an arm wrestling game or two and reached RJ at about 5pm.
