After months of planning, FINALLY our Cameron trip has arrived =D
Last Thursday, the Photography Club members (which is only round 10 people) along with some Zetaians, Sigmaians, and teachers (Rosemary, Pushpa and Loo) went for a 3 days 2 nights trip to Cameron Highlands.
We gathered at school at 7.30am. I was supposed to be in school by 7.15 but I only woke up at 7 =P After everybody has arrived and registered, we boarded the bus at 8am and off we go to Cameron =)
Arrived at Tapah R n R around 10am for some breakfast. Being the city kids we are, we only stepped foot in Baskin Robbins and KFC. The other food area smelled like weird fish. KFC and Baskin Robbins are the only hygienic place there.
At KFC
After Tapah, we stopped by this waterfall at Laban Rata for an hour. We climbed all the way to the top and spent most of our time up there. The stairs up was quite steep. I was panting when we reached the top @.@ Since we were halfway up to Cameron, the weather was quite cooling up there =) 
Rosemary said nobody are allowed to bath in the waterfall but the some of the guys from Sigma cannonball into the water =.= They got the bus wet after that. And Rosemary said we are only stopping at the waterfall for 45 mins but after 45 mins, she was still seen standing knee-deep in the water.
After the waterfall, we reached Cameron round 1 something. We weren't supposed to stop at the tea plantation but in the end we still stopped there. We were all tired, sleepy and hungry but pfft. Fine. We got down the bus.
I needed to pee soooo badly and guess what? I got a great view of the whole tea plantation from the window of my toilet cubicle. And NO I didn't I fertilise the tea plants with my urine =.= That's what Matt thinks.
All those people who were rajin went down to walk in the plantation. The rest of us who were lazy and didn't want to get sunburn stayed in the cafe while taking pics XD
Matt is posing with his strawberry-flavoured water =.=
At the Cameron Valley tea shop
After we left the tea plantation, we were finally able to fill our stomachs at 3pm. Its already more of a tea time than lunch.
In the bus...
Me, Kai Yee and my doggieeee =D
Matt was purposely not looking at the camera. That poser boy...
We ate lunch at this restaurant near our apartment before checking in. Eating in a group as big as 13 people is very hard cos it was so difficult to order. And since its already 3pm, that restaurant we went had limited choice of food left. We finally settled with fried rice and singapore fried mee hoon. Matt only ate plain chicken rice cos he likes the rice =.=
The singapore fried mee hoon tasted weird but fried rice was ok. We also ordered a pot of tea. Good thing we got chinese-speaking people like Kai Yee, Hon Sang and Eng Khim to order for us. I didn't understand a thing and just agreed to whatever they ordered. Hehehe.
After lunch, the bus dropped us at our apartment. The guys immediately rushed upstairs to get the best rooms without even waiting for the owner's permission =_= The girls got the ground floor apartment behind the teacher's one. Zeta/Delta and Sigma guys apartments were at the top floor. They even had balconies plus 3 toilets. Our girls one only got 2 toilets =(
The teachers made our sleeping arrangement more complicated for the girls when they dumped Ms Seah (the office clerk who came along) with us. We decided to give her one room to herself so that she wouldn't disturb us and watch our whereabouts if she sleep outside in the living room. Me, Kai Yee and Li had to sleep in the living room instead while the Sigma girls had one room to themselves and Form 4 girls had another room to themselves.
After the sleeping arrangements were settled, I dumped my bags beside my mattress and went upstairs to the guys apartment. By the time I came, they had already started blasting the music and playing cards. Hon Sang brought his Ipod speakers along. Those who had nothing to do played Marissa's uno stackos. I didn't know uno stackos could be so fun and thrillling =D
The whole tower was so unstable we had to cheat and arrange the pieces to prevent it from falling. We even had to put our palm on top to hold it down while trying to take the pieces out. Lol. Then Li taught us the skilled uno stackos game. We had to pull two pieces out at once without letting the tower drop. Quite fun. Hehe. After we got bored of that, we played dominoes with uno stackos XD
At 7pm, we boarded the bus to head over to Brinchang for the famous pasar malam there. We were supposed to eat our dinner, explore the pasar malam and meet up at Hotel Titiwangsa by 9.30pm. Apparently it was Matt's first time to a night market so... he was being quite jakun. Lol. Sad... a Malaysian for 17 years and yet never stepped foot in a night market. LOL. At least he had the experience before going for his student exchange scholarship interview on Tuesday.
We were all so hungry we immediately headed to the food area of the pasar malam but they didn't have anything appetising for me. Mosty fried food, corns in cup, kebab, and food like char kuay teow, mi hun soup the likes which was difficult to eat while walking so I ended up buying a kebab together with the others.
Among everything I tried that night, this was my fav. Its called fried ice cream but I think its more like shaved ice eventhough its not shaved. Ryan said fried ice cream is a different kind of food. They literally fry the ice cream. But fot this, they poured the strawberry cordial juice into that silver thing and wait for awhile for the juice to freeze then they scraped it off and put it into a cup. Its damn niceeee! And soooo smooth =D Only 2 bucks. Hehe.
We were all walking in a big group but eventually we splitted up. I ended up walking with Hon Sang and Ryan but then Hon Sang went to buy more food so I walked with Ryan alone for awhile. We bought corn in cup(with extra butter) cos we were still hungry and ended up walking till the end of the night market and watched how they made strawberry popsicles. Half way through the corn, I was so full I threw the other half of the corn away.
After meeting up with Hon Sang, Matt and Kai Yee, we tried finding Hotel Titiwangsa where the bus was supposed to meet us. It was a super long way to the hotel. By the time we reached there my legs were sooo tired I could hardly walk anymore =/
When we reached there I saw Li, Yap, Alan, Min Jet and the rest all sitting at the bus stop while eating. 
Yap didn't let me take a pic of him. He said if take his pic must pay.
So I took pic with him. But didn't pay =P Supposed to get this picture signed by him too. Hehe.
Pushpa arrived so we decided to take a pic with our chemistry teacher =) Hey whaddaya know! She smiles for the camera! XD
When we got back to the apartment, we played twister for awhile.
It got realllyyyy twisty. After awhile, we got bored of it. Then everybody were bored. Didn't have anything to do. Nothing to talk about. By 12.30am Kai Yee was sleepy already so she went to sleep. Li started getting cranky and annoyed cos we were just sitting down stoning. Lol. Yap, Alan and Hon Sang went CC. Wth... come all the way to Cameron to go CC and play Dota =.=
So... Li ended up going to sleep. The rest of us... me, Bianca and the guys decided to go visit Yap, Alan and Hon Sang at the CC. Yup we went walking to town round 12.45am. It was all dark and quite scary but I'm surrounded by all guy friends so I wasn't really worried.
We watched Alan and Yap play Dota for awhile. I really dont understand that game lor... Ryan tried explaining it to me but I still don't see how is it nice. Got bored after awhile so we left the CC and headed over to the mamak nearby to drink some hot teh tarik =P
I didn't bring any money. I tink all of us didn't bring any money so Ryan paid for all of us XD Hehe. Thanks Ryan! Well I guess it wouldn't kill to pay RM1.20 for my drink since I was the one who carried his wallet in my pocket for him the whole way >.<
Round 1.30 we went back to the apartment. Alan and Yap took Zhen Yau's sleeping bag and laid down on the balcony while eating junk food so the rest of us joined them. By that time Bianca was sleeping on Zhen Yau's lap already. After we chit chatted for awhile, round 2am Ryan, Min Jet and Victor decided to go to sleep so I went down to my apartment too to sleep. Couldn't sleep on the mattress so ended up sleeping on the Sigma girls' bed since they're upstairs.
Woke up at 6.10am by Marissa, Von and the rest of the Sigma girls who just came down. Couldn't sleep already after that. By 7.45 I went upstairs to give the guys a wake up call but turns out they didn't need one cos all of them were already up and some were eating cup noodle for breakfast. Ate my cup noodle too. At 8.30 we went down to the bus thinking that the bus will bring us for a proper breakfast but turns out that we were supposed to have our breakfast everything by then so teacher gave us half hour to eat for those who haven't eaten anything yet.
Went to a small cafe nearby. I ordered apple juice while watching Ryan, Zhen Yau and Matt have their breakfast.
Matt's cute half-boiled egg
Ryan's second order. His first order which was banana with honey pancakes weren't enough for him. Lol.
Cos of that, we were the last ones to arrive at the bus after breakfast. Pushpa was already standing outside the bus, arms crossed, looking stern at us. Lols. Sowwie.
The first agenda for the second day was...
They had nice hugeee roses =) Must be a heaven for people like my mum
What else is there to do when you're in a place filled with flowers?
SMILE FOR THE CAMERA LA! =D
Best part of the Rose Valley was the slide. Haven't played slides for a longgggg time so when I saw the Sigmaians started sliding down this super steep and long slide, I was like, wat the heck! I WANNA PLAY TOO!!!!! =D
And down I went. Weeeeeeee!!~~ Super duper fun! I slide down the slide 3 times ^.^ Didn't care that in front of me there were all little kids lining up to play. Hehehe >.<
Next we stopped at the Honey Bee Farm. We didn't even wanna go down to the bee farm so all of us ended up playing what they claimed to be the 'largest indoor maze in Malaysia'. Dunno whether isit true or not... But if it weren't for Hon Sang's help, I could have gotten lost in the maze =/
The maze was quite huge and I kept ending up at the same place everywhere I went. In the end, me, Kai Yee, Hon Sang, Zhen Yau and Bianca managed to find the way out together =) Cos of that, again, we were the last ones on the bus. Which caused some of us to stand for a whole 20 min ride in the bus to the Boh Tea plantation since the bus we took up to the plantation is a small bus, not our usual 44-seater bus.
I managed to squeeze at the back with Marissa, Kee Kiat, Andrew, Shu Mei and Zhen Wei though. Hehe.
Once we reached the Boh Tea plantation, first thing we did was NOT enter the Boh Tea factory but to go look for the special lemon pie that according to Ryan, its the best pie he ever ate.
Sadly, they didn't have it anymore. Instead, they have lemon BUTTER CAKE which according to Von who bought it, it tasted more like butter cake instead of lemon. LOL.
Since we're at a Boh Tea plantation, I couldn't resist the all-English tradition, teas and scones ^.^
The scone was great. Washed down with a cup of iced peach tea, yummy! =)
Surrounded by greenery, I could just sit down, chillax and enjoy the chilly wind if time wasn't limiting it. The air smelled soo fresh and from where we sat for our afternoon tea (more like lunch) everything was awesome. The view was great! I just loveeeeeee the weather =)
Group pic! With the Sigmaians (above) and some of the Zetaians (below)
Unfortunately, it started drizzling so teacher started rushing everyone to get on the bus before the rain got heavier. We left the tea plantation without even going down to the plantation to look at tea leaves and journeyed back to the bee farm where we parked our bus.
Our bus driver then drove us to the heart of Brinchang and dropped us there. We were supposed to have our lunch (for those who were still hungry), visit the agro park/strawberry farm/cactus valley and be back at the bus by 4.30pm.
Yay! The strawberry farm! =D What I've been looking forward to the most on the agenda for that day. Hehe. 
On the way to the strawberry farm we passed by lots of vegetable farms. Different different types of veggies. And we keep looking at pictures of strawberry desserts that were already salivating our mouth =P
Strawberries in a huge cup. Lol.
Little did we know, that all those pictures were actually real advertisements for this small shop right before entering the strawberry farm that was selling desserts that you can make with strawberries. Awesomeness. =D
Me, Ryan and Hon Sang ordered the yoghurt with honey and strawberries. Omgggggg the real food looked sooooo much better than the picture in the poster!
And it tasted much much better than what it looks ^.^ I rate it the best food to eat in Cameron =D
In the bus on the way back from the Boh tea plantation, me and Bianca were just talking about fried ice cream. And turns out Kai Yee ordered fried ice cream =)
My first time tasting fried ice cream. It tasted like banana fritters with ice cream. Lol.
Me and Ryan both bought a box of strawberries back for our family which costed us 15 bucks @.@ At first I regretted buying it cos after we left the agro park there was this small shop which sold 2 boxes of strawberries for 10 bucks. But its all small. Ours is hugeee! Now I think its worth it buying it cos when I got home and tried it, it tasted reaalllyy sweet! Huge and sweet. No wonder its 15 bucks. Haha.
I saw strawberry plants at the farm. Damn tiny and wrinkled la the strawberries =/ And before that I didn't know that strawberries were first green in colour before turning red. LOL.
While waiting for our bus to arrive, we entered this shop that sold items that had everything to do with strawberries. Ever since we arrived in Cameron I've been wanting to buy the strawberry ball cos its huge and I felt like hugging it but then its a waste of money since its round 7 bucks.
I saw it being sold at the shop for only 2 bucks so I playfully asked Hon Sang to buy for me. Manatau he really did buy it for me =DDDD
THANK YOUU HON SANG!!! I loveeee the strawberry ^.^
After Hon Sang bought it for me, Alan asked Hon Sang to buy one for him too so he went into the shop and bought nother one. Then Lih Shyan also asked for it so Hon Sang bought 3 strawberry balls in total. Hahaha. Zhen Yau bought one for Bianca.
Alan and Lih Shyan kept kicking and hitting their strawberry balls for fun =.= I didn't let them touch mine but somehow it ended up on the floor too. Ugh.
After we went back to the apartment, almost everyone took afternoon naps since we were lack of sleep the night before and we wanted to stay up late that night. So better sleep first then no need to sleep later =P
I slept in the guys apartment in the same room as Kai Yee and Bianca. Managed to sleep for one hour before Alan and Lih Shyan came in and joined us to sleep.
Legs against legs. Alan and Lih Shyan gaying on the bed XD
Damn cute wei Lih Shyan sleeping with the strawberry. Hahaha.
That night us Zetaians went to eat steamboat for dinner. I can't say that the steamboat was good since the service sucks. The waitress who served us had this bitchy look on her face everytime she looked at us. Idiot. The food was okok only la. Prawns weren't fresh. But then this is Cameron Highlands, not Redang Island.
After dinner we walked around town. Alan and Lih Shyan wanted to play pool so we entered this snooker centre which didn't have any pool. (like duh! Cos its a snooker centre). The place was all dodgy and looks damn scary + dark. Looks like some place for drug addicts. Zhen Yau volunteered to go first, girls in the middle, guys in front and behind. Lol.
Neways, some of us didn't stay for snooker for long since it was only Alan, Lih Shyan and Zhen Yau playing. The ones who didn't play (like me :) went to explore the town. We ended up buying Carlsberg from this small sundry shop since we couldn't enter the pub. Its not that we're underage and not allowed to enter k. Apparently someone booked the whole pub for this big bunch of mat sallehs to dance and karaoke whole night.
We only bought 6 cans of beer though cos those drinking that night were only me, Ryan, Li, Min Jet, Hon Sang and Alan. When we reached the apartment I went to bath first before going up to the guy's place. Li introduced to us this game called empire. It was superrrrr funn that we played it until like round 2am.
Lat tali lat taaaa li tam pong to see who starts the game first
I think Ryan got overexcited when we played that game cos he was jumping up and down to become mediator =__= LOL. It wasn't only that. He did OTHER stuff too which would not be mentioned here for I fear Ryan would hit me after reading this post :P
And at that time he haven't even drink a sip of his beer yet.
After we drank our beer only the fun part began. Eventhough playing empire was super fun, after drinking ONE can of beer (ONLY) it was more fun.
For me lah :P
We started karaoke-ing loud loud. Hahahaa. It was soooo loud that Von from the Sigma apartment had to come to our apartment to tell us to lower down our voices wait the teachers downstairs can hear us. Von spoiled the mood for us after that -.- potong stim only. No more fun already when we continued singing in low voices.
Alan, Lih Shyan and Hon Sang were kinda dancing. Lih Shyan's singing damn funny. Then we were all throwing the strawberry ball around, each one trying to catch it. I catched it and didn't want to let it go XD Ryan was doing funny faces to the camera, I was just singing and doing some actions ^.^
Fun. Very fun :D
Unfortunately, I was too stoned to stop Ryan from deleting the videos from my camera. So most of the vids are now gone =( Stupid Ryan!
Round 3am, everyone started gathering in Ryan's room. Dunno why. When Ryan, Min Jet and Victor went into their room to sleep, everyone started entering their room and sat on their bed. Some (like Alan & Lih Shyan) even laid down on the bed. Which made Ryan super super angry he started pushing all of them down >.<
LOL.
Oh and I fell asleep for awhile on his bed too. Guess all the hyperness had finally died down. Ryan and Alan woke me up by poking and tickling me =__= I was even pushed off the bed. Ugh. Then I went to the room Zhen Yau and Bianca were sleeping and slept beside Bianca :P
That bed which the three of us slept on was actually Alan and Lih Shyan's sleeping place. Alan ended up sleeping on the floor using Yongming's sleeping bag and Lih Shyan ended up on the couch with only the strawberry as his pillow. Lol.
The next morning me and Bianca woke up at 7am and went down to the girl's apartment. I continued sleeping beside Li (Kai Yee got up and left. Apparently when I squeezed between her and Li on the bed, she had no more space to sleep. lols sorry) Slept till 8.30 before waking up to bath.
Went up the guy's apartment at 9 and found all of them still sleeping. Gave them all a wake up call since we were supposed to be on the bus by 10. After breakfast in the apartment, we waited for Rosemary (as usual, shes always late). This time she was at the morning market nearby. Probably eating -.-
On the way back, we stopped at a couple of vegetable farms. Before the bus can even stop to let us down, Rosemary already said "Ahh I already know what I want."
You ALWAYS know what you want isn't it?
Next, we stopped at this hot spring in Abu. Us Zetaians didn't even go down to the river to play with the water, wet our feet or even wash our hands with it. We ended up playing empire for the whole two hours there =P Sigma people went to play in the water and got all wet again.
Had to eat our lunch there since it was already 1pm. Theres nothing much there except ramli burger. After Abu, we stopped by Bidor which was supposed to be the place for our lunch. Thank God we already ate at Abu cos the food at Bidor rest stop looks super crappy and even tasted crappy. Plus its expensive. One corn in a cup costs 3 bucks @.@ Normal price is around rm2 or 2.50 rite?
In the bus we did what we can do ie. play cards, chat, change places, throw strawberry balls, hear music, chat.
I got bored of playing jo tai di after awhile and ended up just listening to my music and staring out of the window while day dreaming. :)
We reached school at 6pm sharp. Overall, I had a good trip ^.^ Even after we came back, I still think about what we happened during the trip. We even talked about it in school. Hehe. Super fun lah. Can never forget our Cameron trip =)
The only bad thing is quite a lot of people got sick after we came back from Cameron. I got sick the very same night we came back. Had fever right up till Wednesday =/
P.s. I know theres a lot of grammar errors in this post, but just pretend you didn't see it ok? Don't bother correcting it =)
(some pics are edited by adrienne lim li-hsien)
My beef brisket. Its quite nice... just that it had LOTS of fats =.= I hardly ate any meat. Left all the fats behind cos so fattening la wei!
Ryan excitedly opening his present, thinking that he got a wallet =.=
A book of compiled birthday messages from all of our friends. Made by yours truly :) He didn't have to ask who made it. When he took a peek at what's inside the present, he straightway shouted "SHENG LINGG!!" LOL. Well, I guess its just my thang to make this kind of birthday messages :P
Reading the messages
Ryan doing his cute signature pose. Apparently Wei Lian taught him how to do it in Form 2 and they practiced doing it together all the time last time before going back. LOLS.
Von looks superrr funneee XD
The birthday mudpie
Ryan had to stand on the chair, make a speech and sing. Hahahaa. He sang Love Story using the ketchup bottle as mike :P
Group pic!! Kai Yee and Yongming went back already though.
Its cufflings. My bro told me that brand of cufflings costs at least also RM150. And my bro got two pairs @.@ Mark is RICH!
Smiles! =)
Head over to McD for breakfast XDD
Pn Lee Yok Lay and Pn Noorliah, the teachers who accompanied us there
So we took a group pic together and went home with a smile on our face =)
While walking back to SS18 on the way back from lunch...
Li Hsien : Awesome?
Oh and look! We're posing with our party packs. Hehehe. 
As you can see, most of us there are teenagers/adults. Not kids anymore. And we're at a kids party. Lol. Eh but quite fun la. =)
