Day Four.

woke up passed 5 realising i've got my collar bone bruised as a result of carrying such weight for 7 hours. well not the bone of course, but the area lah. volunteered sama si boobs to clean the mess cans and stoves. i was still feeling guilty, thats why. tarus dismantle camp plus cleaning up soon after and had light breakfast before going down the riverside to put our bag to the temuai before pumping up the kayaks, stretching sama learning kayak's basics. was in the same kayak with arif. kayaking session took less than two hours from 'Kem Semut' back to OBBD's main building. kayak kami dua paling laju kali ah. ahaha. bangga bah. but it was fuuuun, and hot. you can see the guys berasap. awu like berasap bah baju ah. panas jua tu.

sampai OBBD's main building, cuci camping gears and masukkan the stuffs ke store. pukul 2 kana suruh bekumpul. guess what, solo night!! we were given 4 litre water bottle, shelter top, ground sheet, rain poncho, pen, reading materials, blank papers and a bag including air horn plus night stick for emergency. no candle nor torch light nor lighter. so basically we had to spend the night in the dark.


Dalam store.


we were told to randomly pick our camp site. mine was solo camp site 3. no talking allowed in the jungle. the nearest friend will be around 50 meters to 100 meters away but you can only walk within 5 meters away from your camp. and from my site, i can't see any camp. datang to my site, set up my camp then terus did a little reading. sikit saja ku baca pasal bosan. we were told to write a letter to ourself and it will be sent to us in 6 months time. since i wont be in Brunei, i wrote one for mom. =P

siap buat surat, tidur tah ku. boring and ngalih. then by maghrib time, the girl arah camp site 4 came to my camp and woke me up crying saying "qiib, aku inda dapat teruskan lagi, aku takut. tadi aku tidur, sudah ku bangun aku nampak aku limpang sebalahku. aku mau balik. aku takut". man that freaked me out. i calmed her down and honked the air horn for coach. while waiting for coach to come, she started screaming and yelling as if something is 'disturbing' her. the only option i had was to try to calm her down. she's a teammate after all.

coach came, asked what happened and took her away after calming her down leaving me to spend my next 16 hours alone. goosebumps! i forced myself to sleep balik since takut. coach woke me up, the only thing i remember was gelap sudah masa atu. he gave me some insect repellent. i forgot about what happened earlier until coach talked to me.

"apa ia bagitau kau tadi?".

"errr. ia tidur, sekali ia bangun ia nampak something."

"bukan kana kacau tu. mun kana kacau ani kana pindah tempat tidur apa. jangantah ingau."

ingat tia ku balik and takut!!

masa malam, you can feel footstep landing on the ground as the only thing standing between you and the ground is just canvas ground sheet. you can hear voices as well. most of us had the same experience but all of us ignored 'em. covered myself with rain poncho from head to toe, limiting my sight since i don't want to see 'myself' belimpang sebalahku.

everytime tebangun, i'd have goosebump. kalau sangal badan and kan turn kanan or kiri, baca Bismillah ku. i was that afraid. i spent the night in fear with thoughts of giving up but then i kept pushing hard. pajal saja tidur.


the night i wished i was spending a night here.

Day Four ended.
