Gunung Chabang; surprise, surprise!



Hola!


I should write about Bukit Senaling first, as I promise to jot down the details in a blog post. But can we skip that one pretty please? I promise I'll come back with the journey and how friendly Nogori Sembilan was.

Okay, to the main point.

Place: 
Gunung Chabang

Height : 
5614 feet (1711 meters)

Location : 
Pos Slim, Simpang Pulai – Cameron Highlands Highway, Perak (within Kampung Orang Asli Pos Slim)

Date:
24032018 - 25032018

Lineup:
Best gila and most memorable I must say!

This trip started with Mr. Aeman asking Miss Kaka to join his buddies, the Wehike Community. Yes, he's the mastermind. Then, this lady said to herself, why not? It's been a while since she had any mountain trip and jungle camping. Selalu naik gunung yang famous trek dah barai dan dah tak rasa dah suasana hutan tu. I'm no hiker. Maybe for most of them, Chabang is one of the famous trek too but for beginner and nobody like me, I never really heard of it. So, let's try. Little did she remember that everything happens for reasons. Kalau trek tu orang jarang naik, of course la it is not santai dan lepak kan?




So yes, the trek was no joke. Again, I threw up on trek. I guess my stomach wasn't cooping well with 2 am food. Wait, let's not jumping here and there. Okay, at first, I thought this trip gonna be boring (not la boring but not fun too) as the only person that I know was Aeman. Others were totally strangers. And unlike TSG who were loud and meriah in whatsapp group, this one, only started popping up when the trip was around the corner.



Luckily, they came to fetch me from my home. We met everyone at KD at midnight, 24th. Then and there, they divided the ration and company. It was a really busy day at High Court KL with Hafiz's long call (I want to post something about this too, remind me) so as soon as the cars moved, I felt asleep. Sorry Anjang and Mira. Dah lah tidur baring sebab sorang je dekat belakang. Tak senonoh betul perangai. Orang tu baru kenal kita like two hours before kot.

Singgah RnR Tapah to tapau some food (and supper) then shot to Pos Slim. Again, I slept. Lol. Tak menyumbang langsung.

Okay, saat yang kita nanti-nantikan. TAK KELAKAR WEH TREK DIA AWAL-AWAL TERUS PACAK GILA. Daripada bawa 3 botol besar, pass satu botol dekat Mira sebab tak cukup padu. Lepastu boleh pula buat drama nak pitam dekat atas tu. Mujur tak pitam. Dunia dah berpusing kot masa tu. Duduk, muntah. Lepastu baru rasa okay sikit.



Only God and them know how much I complain to (curse) Aeman sebab ajak trek yang tak kelakar ini. It was not funny seriously. Dah barai teruk dah. Jalan 5 minit berhenti, 5 minit berhenti.

Thank God, we finally arrived at Kem Botak. Walaupun jadi orang last sebab belakang sweeper. Pacak khemah, masak (sidenotes: I always be the dapur girl since forever. Tapi setiap kali nak masak, setiap kali tu tanya ni okay ke tak okay ke. Tapi tapi biasalah kan dapur orang tak biasa 👅👅), makan, dan masa makan tu hujan. Maka, kami bertiga (Kaka, Mira dan Eman) dah berhuhu dan melupakan hasrat untuk berbintang-bintang pada malam ini.




Then came the best part. THE STARS WERE THERE DAN BANYAK DAN CANTIK GILA OKAY! They ARE dancing on the skies! Aaaaaa. Masa ni memang tarik balik segala penyesalan sebab ikut trip ni. Memang terus cakap dekat Eman - 'weh, tarik balik ayat aku menyesal ikut kau tadi' dengan tak malunya because IT'S WORTH EVERY SINGLE STEPS.

Itulah orang kata - the harder the path, the more beautiful the view. Now I understand. Well, you can apply this quote in your life too. No worries. Pains are temporary. When everything's lifted up, you'll only see the clear skies and trust me, you don't even remember how hard the journey was. You remember, but it can't take away the view - that'll be the most memorable thing.

Dan lineup semua best tak tipu. I'm sorry for my bad first impression. Again, don't judge a book by it's cover.

Mira padu terok dan kaka tudung tak jadi


8.30 am after ber-sunrise, breakfast and photography-ing, we continue to summit attack. The trek was beauti-fuuuuul crafted with mossy forest. Pacak juga tapi tak bawa load rasa okay sikit lah.

And which favor of your Lord that you deny?



Turun balik ke Kem Botak, packing dan kembali ke realiti. Sesungguhnya turun dia pun tak mudah. Terima kasih kepada semua yang jaga seorang Atiqah masa dekat trek. You know who you are ❤.

Akhir kalam, boleh repeat kot hahahahaha.

Till then!

P/s: Ignore my rojakness. Nak tulis dalam bahasa apa pun keliru ish ish.


Nah sis belanja 💋

Thank you, 2017


Nothing much, just wanted to thank 2017 for everything. A year where I was truly healed and living my life to the fullest. 2016 was full of of too much surprises I didn't get a chance to calmly breath. It was full of too much confusions and questions too I don't think I enjoyed 2016 as much as I enjoyed 2017.

It's three months passed 2017 already but every time I looked back, I'm still feeling grateful.

Hoping for a better 2018 full of happiness and smiles.

P/s: I want a rainbow this year.
