coming camp in ulu yam

will be going to camp this sat after work. as usual. ulu yam will be the venue.

i would like to remind all those first timers and also the season campers of my encountered with jeff during our last camp at this venue.

nothing unusual happend just that must be extra careful where falling branches from tree top frequently falling especially during raining season.

it happend a lot of times during my last camp there but 2 times are closed encountered with especially the one falls in the middle of the nite where me & jeff got awake because of the great impact sound. nothing much we can do but just continue sleeping and laughing there.

so, guys and gals.......... be extra careful on this trip.

cheers and see u all this weekend in ulu yam, the town famous for " lor mee"

p/s oh ya....... should we find it boring at nite in the jungle, don't worry, we can go party in ulu yam, i will bring u there(don't ask me how is the party, cos i am still waiting for the chance to go).......... went so many times to ulu yam for camp & i only noticed the party spot on my last camp......so, those who going to the camp early, please spot for the party spot. want to see if you are observance enough or not.

so many places to go this year....

suddenly in mind have so many places to go but too bad, i have not enough annual leave & with 21st world scout jamboree as main priority, other places will always be my secondary for this year.

pleaces come in line are:

1) usa in feb during the chinese new year.
2) 21st world scout jambore uk july till august. (this will be the main priority)
3) shanghai where captain simon & the wife will be there for a year, yahoo. free accomodation, free food, everything pau by captain
4) tokyo in october where course for leader trainer will be held for the apr region.

2 months annual leave also not enough...............

trip to usa might be early than i expected

as i have mentioned b4, i planned to visit usa when 2010 scouting in usa celebrate its 100 years.

but not that i wanted to or expected where this coming chinese new year, i might be going to usa for cny.

well, now is all depend on the visa appliaction and also i am not sure i have enough time for the application or not. if need to go thru the hassel, i am not that keen in going.

i like to take my own sweet time to settle those hassel esp everyone saying that apply usa visa is always tone of things to do.

with my uk trip as priority, i might forgo this trip. well, what to do, u cannot have so many things at one go. take it easy.

nothing much to do......... just relax.......... cheers.
