back to my nightmare

my biggest nightmare of trekking--gunung nuang. highest mt. in selangor.

back to 1.25 years ago,we conquered gunung nuang. and i swore i wont come back to this place.never ever.

[a victory pose at nuang peak.1.25years ago]

but 3 days ago...i broke my promise to myself and ended up torturing myself along the trek.mentally and physically.
it took us abt 9 hours up and down, including lunch time and waterfall break. to my surprise, 9 hrs ?! i expected to complete it in 12 hrs.

gunung nuang trek is sth like this:
when u feel you have walked a lot,drenched in sweat,muscle getting sore and asking for how long more you have to walk to reach the peak, the answer will be: "if you really feel u're tired to the max d, you will have to walk/trek 2 more hours to reach kem pacat.kem pacat only.not even the peak.

[victory pose at kem pacat.present.with lots of sweat bees]

i'm not sure whether this happens to everyone,but it happens on me:
whenever i have trekked for a long distance(and it must be a strenuous trek), i could hear "thud thud thud" sound only from my left ear. at first i thought my heart is pumping so vigorously until it bangs my rib bones and causing "thud thud" sound. till that day i finally figured out the real story. it wasn't "heart sound", what i heard was actually the pulses on my vein(neck). the blood is pumping so fast and so forcefully in the arteri/jugular vein and resulting audible pulse-even without sphygmomanometer. can imagine how strenuous the trek is?
the key point to unravel this "mystery" is--i cant hear the sound with my right ear, only the left ear.

although nuang is notorious for it's trek, it do have sth nice as attraction to make it a famous spot for camping. waterfall! nature massage! "swimming pool"! it's so nice to get back to nature.into the jungle and enjoy a moment like this. it was really really nice and very very relaxing. i quickly washed my boots, straight away i laid down letting stream water flow. whenever u feel like s1/sth is fanning you, undoubtedly it will be the wings of sweat bees(the annoying one).

[nth better than enjoying nature music like this.laying down is one of my favourite pose@everywhere,ANYwhere.]

[surrounded by rocks and greeneries.notice the swimming pool behind?]

[we hereby provide a way to avoid the annoying little creature]

after the waterfall break, another 1 hr walk spent on never-ending road back to carpark. and we get this pose.

[here we are again at the entrance.safe and sound before night falls.]

washed up,headed for ikan bakar then hot spring to rendam kaki! reached home late night and rushed for moral studies mid term exam the next day. i'm not iron man.
