One Step Beyond

 Hellobello.

My mum shoved this newspaper article in my face couple of weeks back, about a guy who was once paralyzed, but now up & kicking, wanting to climb Mount. Kinabalu. It's a charity climb, with it's aim to raise 100K for Shelter Home. Consisting of 30 climbers, each participant is suppose to raise 2K.

click right here to check out the article.

& they were still lacking of 18 climbers then.
So I thought, ''heyy, why not?!''
Hence, I sent an email to the organizer, stating my interest in participating & I got myself a place.

So, on the 13th to 16th of July, this girl's gonna attempt at conquering Mount. Kinabalu, baybeh ;)


Our first training was last Saturday, hiking up Mount. Angsi in Senawang.
Was my first time meeting the other participants, though not all were present.
They were mostly middle-aged, I was the youngest.
Really nice energetic people :)


Pictures below, I used my digital. Like as if I'd drag my DSLR up.

I started the hike right at the back with Julie & the sweeper(and organizer), Edwin.
Julie's among the older climbers. Her bag looked somewhat huge & too heavy for a 1day hike, so I couldn't help but to offer my assistance. But she said she needed to train. After a while, she said her bag was too heavy so she took out her 1.5 litre water bottle and held it. Edwin & I told her that she would need to keep her hands free when . So after some persuading, she let me carry her bottle in my bag :)



Local Senawang boys. They're not from my group.

Otw up, I started pacing because if I stop, I'd just puncture out.
So without realising, I overtook my team. Then I met up with them boys.
The middle guy is AMAZING. He was carrying this huge haversack.
At the peak, I discovered that he brought a WHOLE freaking watermelon & an unopened container of Nata de Coco.


Best view from the top.
