Anyway, by 12 pm, the contents in my bag are neatly arranged. :)
I went outside and look into my neighbour's compound in hopes that I could spot my meighbour and tell her off. Her door and gate was open, I could hear voices, but I didn't want to call out for her.
Still feeling dissatisfied, I went to my gate and push all the laundry to one side. I hoped she will get the message. Then I went upstairs and send out an email to all my friends telling them about my neighbour.
Not a pretty sight. :(
And you know what? I don't know my cousins names... too many of them. We only meet them like once a year. I don't recognise some of them too.
The cake was specially made by a cake shop. The food was catered. I was late for the dinner, so I couldn't get a good picture of the food. MY brother was eating halfway when I asked his permission to take a picture of what he was eating.
Peter Lai song led. He brought his guitar.
Doc Peter Ch'ng had to rush off because he was on call. So while we were singing, he had his dinner. His family came with him too. He left as soon as he finished eating. I'm glad he made the effort to come.
The food was of course delicious. Cooked by my mom and Tusi, we had a total of 10 dishes and 1 soup(leng ngau). Each climber contributed RM8.00 towards the cost.
After the dinner, some stayed back to fellowship and sing some oldies. They lingered around till almost 11pm.
This is Sheraton Subang... or rather a small part of it. My friend Pam, wanted to meet up with Shanty , the marketing manager of Sheraton Subang. She didn't want the hassle of thinking how to get to Sheraton, so she asked Mctc to take her there. Surprisingly Mctc agreed. I followed along just to sibuk (busybody).
Surprisingly, the food tasted nice. I love the beef. It was so tender... and I love the green tea ice-cream with red beans. We all had that for dessert. It was oh-o-yummy. It's a pity I forgot to take a picture of it, otherwise I can post it in here.
Nice huh?! I haven't been to the Pyramid for such a long time.
I do have a small oven, and it has been serving me well over the past 2 years. But if I want to make cookies, I would prefer to use my mom's oven because I can bake 3 big trays at one go. And I love making shortbread but my mom cannot stand the smell of butter. Imagine after 5 hours of baking buttery stuff in her oven, Tusi (the maid) will have to "halal-nized" (sanitized) the oven.
The dinner in Regent Restaurant cost RM433. We had the birthday noodles, sharkfin's soup, steamed fish, lemon chicken, prawns with egg (like butter prawns), vegetables with mushroom, fried rice (yummy) and japanese taufu cooked like claypot style.
Here's Om with her monkey friends at Bukit Kepayang. When she saw them, she was overjoyed. She even made monkey sounds and told us that when she does that her monkey friends will come to her aid. And by having her super mystical monkey stick with her, she is the monkey queen.
At 7AM I went for a hike up at Bkt Kepayang with RW.
It was slightly misty. The air was fresh... except when the cars and motorbikes passed by us.
The beautiful flowers. I can't help but show you 2 almost similar pictures that I took. They look so lovely.
Don't you agree with me?
Take a good look at the picture. Just above the centre. Looks like there's a faraway kingdom in the sky.
Zoom closer... ai yah... they are just communication towers. Ceh...
Cool eh.. 
A small but useful oven. It's for baking. I love it too.
Well, that's the plan. But the plan changed when we found that Airasia wasn't so accommodating. The price wasn't right. We spend some time in Airasia's website looking for a suitable flight, one that was cheap and flies on a Wednesday. We finally found July 2nd, flight to KK was only RM6 (excluding taxes).... but... no moonlight during that time. Anyway, we just book July 2nd and informed everyone to buy headlamps. :) 
And what did I do when class was cancelled? Make cookies. :)
These few days I've been scrapping... LAST YEAR'S PHOTOS. I'm so lagging...
Not satisfied with her nasi lemak in FS, Minch ordered nasi lemak again. I wanted black pepper udon mee with beef. Yummy!. Rachel decided on a combo meal - chicken, fish and chips. We ordered the famous mother of pearl drink, but they sold out. Wah.... so fast sold out already. But then Rach was thirsty, so she ordered some oatmeal green tea. After like 20 minutes we saw a waiter bringing a glass of mother of pearl to another table. Minch then ask the waiter for some explanation and was told that they ran out of one of the ingredients and were boiling it just now. I was really promoting this drink and it wasn't cheap - RM4.50 a glass. Minch ordered 1 glass. After tasting it, she categorised it as "yummy" but will not order this drink again because it's expensive. 
I've been neglecting my grass for 5 months. It's full of weeds and insects I've never seen before lived there. I can hardly see the stones too. It was time for the grass to have a hair cut, I thought to myself a few months back. My one and only excuse is I was busy. Well, I WAS.
Yesterday was dumpling day. Exactly was it is all about I don't know. I only know that's when so many "congs" would be made and sold at the shops/street. I asked Min Chee and Rachel Wong what was the significant of this celebration. They also don't know. 
Ruth called me last Monday. She told me to expect a parcel from her. On Friday, the church administrator called and told me that I have a parcel from Ruth. These are what's in it. Thanks Ruth. :) 
We walked along the stream for a bit, took pics while we still had breath. :) It was an easy trail. Just had to watch out muddy areas and of course, the blood sucking leeches.
Pipes along the way. This was just the start of the long hike. :(
Eh, why are we going down instead of up?!!
A short break. This is where KG would say "leech-check, everyone take off your shoes and check for leech bite". Okay, maybe he didn't say it this time, but I remembered him saying it last year. It was about 9.25AM when we stopped here. I gave Min Chee her wish. Earlier on, she wanted a cold fizzy drink. When we stop here, I pulled out my flask containing cold 100plus. She drank a cup full, but later regretted because it caused wind to develop at the sides of her waist.
Crossing the 1st stream. Should I take off my shoes or not?? KG walked effortlessly from rock to rock, but most of us took off our shoes. Min Chee decided not to take off her shoes too. All of us arrived safely to the other side of the stream without any mishap. A leech managed to enter into Min Chee's socks and KG terminated it with salt.
This is the most difficult part of the climb.KG and Messner nicknamed it as the "hillary hill". I had trouble getting up. KG helped most of us,and little Nathaniel, who was only 6 years old got a piggy back ride up to the hill. Peter Chi'ng's mom, a 64-year-old lady managed to climb up with the help of KG and Karim. It took us 1/2 hour for all to climb over the hill. We resumed our hike at 11.35AM.
This is the 2nd part of the hilary hill. Not as bad as the first.
The weather was perfect. The mist came in, and it was so cooling, like we were in Gentings Highlands or Cameron Highlands. We had our lunch there. A light drizzle made it all more cooling. Someone said it was like heaven.
We were so reluctant to leave, but when the rain became more than just a light drizzle, we started to pack up and head down. It was 12.40PM when we left the summit.
Min Chee started having leg cramps again and at one point, her knees refused to cooperate. She couldn't bend them. It was sheer torture for her having to rely on someone's help most of the time.
We managed to get down the hillary hill much faster. Little Nathaniel cried, maybe because he couldn't see his dad. But we assured him that his dad was nearby and he stop crying when he reached his father's side.
Coming down the hillary hill wasn't as bad as last year, but I still hated it.
We took a breather here. Min Chee's got free massage on both knees.
Most of the time, the pathway was flat. It was an easy walk here. RW and I walked ahead of the others.
The second stream. Water level wasn't high, so we were able to cross over without taking off our shoes.
I didn't any pics of the 1st stream when we descended, and this picture was taken opporsite the place where KG will called for leech check.
We were passing by the pipes when one of the youths (I think it was Benjamin) asked how long more to the car park. I told him, not long more. Then later he asked again. I told him "soon" because I can hear sounds of children and adults laughing and playing in/by the stream. It was a holiday, the King's birthday and the Malays ook the oppotunity to to have a camping day out with their children.
