A Day At Carey Island...

Last Saturday, I was at Carey Island, Klang helping V and M to held an event for Sime Darby HQ at Golden Hope Academy. It was my first time to Carey Island. Excited and can't wait to be there. Woke up early, M picked me up and we off to Carey Island. Almost all over Carey Island, you can see palm oil trees here and there. There is even 18 holes golf course in Golden Hope Academy beside the sea separated by sea bunk. After getting our stuff to the main lecture hall, we went over to the Mah Meri Orang Asli village to meet up with the participants. Saw the welcoming dance and got myself a welcoming headgear by the natives. After awhile, went back to GHA to prepare all the stuff and the items needed for the activities. Next, we went over to Arboretum, a herbal garden to have a short hunt there. A little small and cozy garden with fish pond. Learnt many funny names of plants. After lunch, we organized a few activities for the participating ala Amazing Race. First, there was the fishing game where 1 group need to catch 2 fishes followed by putting a golf ball in its hole and eat crackers with wasabi. I was thrilled that the participants did really catch fishes using palm oil tree branch at the big drain nearby GHA. I took care the station where a member of a group need to eat crackers with wasabi. Then, they need to rush over to library to look for their next clue and then, head over for some sumpit ballon competition. Not easy though. And lastly, they need to crack the lock at the treasure box. Overall, it was a fun activities with hiccups here and there but the most important the participants have a great time especially most of them is AUNTIEs!!! Hahhahaha!!! After having tea break, we packed and headed home. On the way, M told me Carey Island also famous for its seafood. Mmmhhh, no doubt I will comeback here again to try it out.

Went out with CM after dinner back to Sunway Pyramid. She needed to get a new pair of shoes for work. Found out that CM's have "cacat" legs!!! Wakakaka!!! No lar, not that she is disabled or defective legs or whatsoever. Choi!!! Just that she have difficulty getting shoes as her feet are too small. Even the smallest size shoes also too big for her!!! Pengsan!!! Fainted!!! Vomited blood!!! Muntah darah!!! Wakakaka!!! Kesian her... Hehehehe, lucky she got herself a new pair of sandals if not I sure will kill her for dragging me all the way to Sunway for nothing!!! She looks nice in the new sandals. *bluek*

Shoes... nothing more than that...
