A Crazzy Crazy Sunday!

Yes, yes, it's been a totally crazy Sunday for me (& of course, Val too). Nothing beats this -- Climbing Mt. Taishan (This was what I forgot in my previous post). It's totally and utterly tiring! We went to the train station to pick Jeremy & Hui Er up at ard 9.30pm and set off to 'Tian Wai Chun', hoping that we could take a bus up to the mid mountain, 'Zhong Tian Men'. But guess wat? The buses only starts their service at 12+, 1am! SO, we decided not to wait and headed to 'Hong Men' (Red Gate), and that also means that we'll be climbing from the very foot of the mountain! !!!

Alrite, we started climbing at 11pm due to some delays at the tix counter. 'Cos Val & I didn't bring our student card, there were some complications. But we started so ya. From bottom to 'Zhong Tian Men', we took about 1 and a half, 2hrs. We were already tired then but the worst have yet to come. We climbed and climbed, stop n rested, clmbed and felt like crying, stopped and felt like resting there forever, climbed and felt like my legs will give way anytime...

It was hell... But hell of an achievement as well. It was a job well done for all of us. Jeremy was our motivator. Hui Er was our photographer. They were both great to have. W/o them, I doubt Val n I will ever be able to make it all the way up n down and achieve what we have achieved.

After we came back to the hotel, I bathed and rested a while in bed. A call from home, a call which I've been waiting for since the day I've arrived. Was so glad to hear from all of them, even Jaela, tho I only heard her say "I Don't want" (to talk to her Ah Yi) at the background. :( She only wants to webcam with me, 'cos according to her, it's more fun. Oh well. At around 11.30am, we went down to Four Seasons to eat buffett (we treated them to welcome them here). At arond 12+, we made our way to the train stn only to find out that the tix fo the day was sold out. They took a bus back in the end.

We went back to our room n slept at 2, woke up not too long ago, at 9pm, mainly 'cos I received a call from my Gu Jie. After that, I went to wash up n here I am. Oh, guess what our dinner was?

Ta-Dah!
I had campbell soup with pasta and Val had Milo
(The Oreo tastes surprisingly nicer here)

What I feel now is, tired. Really tired. My legs aren't really aching YET. It's so sore that the muscles are still tight. But when tmr comes, we die. >_< style="text-align: center;">Val & I at 'Zhong Tian Men', resting to the fullest (almost)
