Forest Camp! (OMG)

FOREST CAMP - every forestry student should endure that (yaiks!)
It's HARD. i mean it. i cry before entering it. i cry after i finish it.

This year we(student of Forestry UMS) camp for 2 weeks in Kawang, Papar. Without electricity (!), without no clean water (!!), without handphone (!!! sh*t %$#%^$), and without my dear boyfriend (!!!!). Life is Hard there.
I know he will be praying for me there..


Anyway, for the first week i did cry a lot. From heels to Adidas Kampung, no girls can cope with that easily! But for the second week, i manage to live a LIFE there. i can actually climb slopes higher than 75 degrees. Amazing! (yeay me!) Of course i didn't forget my roots. Padini is still in my mind. I manage to put some cute stuff on me. I only pick cute patterns of leaves to put on my hair so that i look like Jane (remember Tarzan wife?)

One of my choice of leaves to put on my hair
The thing is, I learn a lot there. I found many unexplored gifts i never knew i have which im still amazed until today.I hate Forest Camp, but i love it at the same time. I wont do it again though. But im proud i had endure it.

So next time when you feel like you need someone to help you ways in the forest, dont call me. Im busy buying shoes. :)

Unduk Ngadau a.k.a Beauty Peagent



Since my family is an ordinary KadazanDusun family, they must at least send one of their children to join Unduk Ngadau a.k.a Beauty Peagent contest. It's not like an ordinary beauty peagent you see in the TVo (you will not judge by your height and your beauty). To be an Unduk Ngadau, you have to be smart, soft, and posses the characteristics of Huminodun (KadazanDusun believe she is the daughter of the gods' who sacrifice herself for the sake of human being).

But unfortunately, the competition nowadays are being exploited by the image of models and all. It seems like the competition loss the essence of the traditional feelings. But whatsoever, can you see me? I'm contestant number 6. yes. the short one. I'm wearing outfit from the Rungus clan (if i'm not mistaken).

I've join Unduk Ngadau twice, not including the one i join when im young like....kindegarten age. Some of the contestant really bothers me. Staring me like i owe her money. She stares at every contestant actually. She and her "Wannabe" groups of friends (The contestants are divided into 3 groups : the Wannabe, the LoneRanger-No friend, and the "Down to Earth and Pretty" where im at). She always talk about how many competition she joins (yet, she still lose.boohoo!). And i'm strongly convince she feels irritated when i answer the question correctly and in full KadazanDusun language.

I didn't win though. But my friend did.1st runner-up also goes to my friend. Both of them from the "Down to Earth and Pretty" group. Boohoo Wannabe! I got third place, which im quite surprise since im short.Hooray to "Down to Earth and Pretty" group! We win three places!

Anyway, it's not the result that matters. In my family's eyes, I WON. :)
