Taman Negara 2009

Came back from Taman Negara about 2 weeks ago (4th Dec - 6th Dec 09). It was our Zenith company trip (3 days 2 nites). Stayed at the Mutiara Resort Taman Negara. This was my 2nd trip there. First trip was years and years ago, with a bunch of my collegues (a few ex and one or two still current). We stayed at the dorm unit then, being the young cikus bunch we were then. This time around, because it's company trip, we stayed at chalets with 2 roomies assigned to one chalet. Didn't take any pictures of the trip, because silly me took my camera there, BUT.....i realised when i was there, that i left my memory card in my notebook back home. Silly silly silly......
Anyways, the trip was ok la...The company was great. But the environment...errr....ok la..mainly becuase i m not a huge fan of jungles and forests, and trekings into the jungles. Never was and probably nvr will be. I don't mind doing it because it's an official function or must-do kinda thingy. But if i have a choice, it's the sunny beaches or bustling cities for me. I really don't fancy jungle trekking and exploring or admiring the floral or fauna. I am usually too busy looking at the next step ahead of me and which step or roots shall i step on, instead of looking around me or looking at the leaves or trees or birds or whatever la.. My mind would be always thinking of "Are we there yet? Have we reached there yet? When is this going to end? Like quickly now..." Hahahha..My friends have asked every now & then to go climb Mount Kinabalu....and i will be like "Are u crazy?". And they will go like "think of the sense of achievement when you are up there.." and I will be like "It's ok...i can think of a lot of other things i can achieve without climbing a mountain" Hahhahaha....that's me...and me not loving the jungle much..

Anyways, back to the company trip, of course there was a jungle trekking excursion, and thank god, the guides did us a favour by doing the short cut route, or else...hmpt...i dunno man. And of course, my bloody muscles were aching after that. But like that la..what to do..Taman Negara. When in Rome, do what the Romans do..

Of course, there were drinking session. And Club 65 ..(the assigned drinking room). But i was only there for the first nite..2nd nite was an escape nite for me...went to bed early....hahahahah....

That's our company trip this year....to our local destination of Tmn Negara. 2009 was not such a great year for the agency, so boss had to do local instead.
Here's to great and fruitful 2010 ahead. So that we can go to a much further destination that has a different currency. Heee....
Cheeeeerrrrssss...
