Highs and challenges of Tioman


I think the highs of Tioman were almost in every part of the adventure. Especially when we were having a relaxation moment at the jetty. On Wednesday afternoon we went to the jetty to see who will have the best poses as we plunged in to the cool sea fifteen feet below us. At first I thought I would never make it down with out having a panic stroke but as I leaped into the air, the wind whipping against my face, and then a few quick moments, I was engulfed by the comforting water. Wow, at that instant, I knew I could jump off the jetty all the time. That was a moment I will never forget. As the highs might be high, there was also a torturous trek up to the middle of the Dragon's Horns Mountains. Though the hike was very educational and slow, people that weren't used to these types of excercises got really tired (mainly ME.) But after we got to this huge rock where we ate lunch, I realized how beautiful the forest can be when you are looking down at it. Any ways, the entire trip was a success. It was fun, educational, and entertaining.

Itinerary, Pulau Tiamon, ME and people working?

Looking at the itinerary, i think so far I am most excited about the rainforest challenge. Earlier this year, I went on a science field trip in FRIM, and I thought it was pretty exciting and fun to have a rainforest scavenger hunt. Not that I am excited about this following thing but it is the last thing I want to do after spending a fun time away from home. The activity that I am least excited about is the trip back to ISKL. It would be nice to sleep in my own bed again, but I have always had a bad experience getting back home from a long trip. its just, I always get sick at the end of the trip. So ya, that won't be fun.

I choose Pulau Tiamon and stuck to my choice because, I really enjoy the thought of going to site that provides me with both the adventures of a rainforest and an ocean site. It will also be interesting to work with people that I have never met before.

I think one thing every one should know about me is that, I work well with others as long as the other people are encouraging and believe that our team/group is capable of doing things that other groups can do too.

I know the people I work well with are people that can be serious about the task but also wants to have fun with it. I work with people that are enthusiastic and encouraging. I also like to work with fun and pleasant people.
People that I don't work with should be afraid because I have quite a temper if I am not happy with the behaviour or doings of others. I am a bit of a perfectionist and because of that I don't work well with people that only want to goof off and are insulting to others. :(

Thoughts of Friends and Teacher about ME!!!!

When I asked my friends to use three adjectives and describe me, they couldn't decide on ONLY three. The list went on and on and on, but finally the choose these brilliant words to describe me:-

Out going (more like Dramatic but its my friends opinion)
Random... (hilarious)
and Caring

But when I asked my teachers the exact same question, it was a whole other story. (LOL) They thought I was enthusiastic, striver, and a little crazy sometimes when I'm overjoyed.

Malaysia Week Again!!! ( " v " ) Hope to Gain

Malaysia Week is always one of the best parts of Middle School, and this year we are going to Pulau Tioman. I' m extremely excited for this site as it is by the beautiful ocean for half the time we are there, and the other half, we will be adventuring in the thick forests of Tioman. Although it is a three hour hike to our camp in the forest, I still think that the boat ride to our first camp site is worst since I get very sea sick on rocking boats. But as a solution I am prepared to take motion sickness pills (I don't want any thing to ruin this great experience.) Any ways, during this adventure, I hope to get to know Mr. Thomas, as he is a new teacher in our school. I also want to be pushed out of my comfort zone (trust me that is an easy task.)
