EPIC SABAH TRIP(Survived the Canopy Walk!!!)Part 1

  Hello guyz, and I'm really sad because I now REALLY HAVE TO SAY GOODBYE to my friends, because I just came back from Sabah. Its been a fun time there with my friends and all the new people that I met there. But at the end, we must say goodbye. Its just so HARD to NOT THINK ABOUT MY FRIENDS, because I want to see their faces BADLY.  This will be a HUGE MISS-ICK(http://blmjrocks.blogspot.com/2011/05/miss-ick.html), but I must try to get over it. I can't even think straight while typing this post. Well, I HAVE A GREAT AND THRILLING TIME AT SABAH. And especially during Sunday.(After when you read Sunday's story, you will know what I mean)
Day 1:
  I brought my heavy luggage and my small sling-bag filled with UNO CARDS(Yeah, I also ask myself why I brought that because there is COMPLETELY NO TIME TO PLAY......Maybe just this night..), Skulduggery Pleasant(The incredible novel book if you don't know what it is, and the same question, NO TIME), Camera(This is a MUST-BRING), mobile phone(no description available),two muffins(in case, I'm hungry), Jacket(in case I'm cold), my Transformers hat, and MOST IMPORTANT(My wallet: Filled with ton of money =RM130). After breakfast, I ride excitedly in my dad's car. When we head to school, my father said goodbye and then there I go to the Airport by Bus with my classmates. First, we got to meet our first tourist guider: Ah King. He gave us 30 minutes of FREEDOM at the Airport then head back to the place he told us to gather(a tree).I bought some Mentos and a KitKat CHUNKY Bar to eat in the plane we rode. To be REALLY HONEST, the things they sell there in the Airport is REALLLLY EXPENSIVE than the things they sell outside.(EXAMPLE: AIRPORT KitKat CHUNKY Bar RM4.90 => OUTSIDE KitKat CHUNKY Bar RM3.50 AIRPORT Mentos RM3 => OUTSIDE Mentos RM1.90) After buying, walking, going to the toilet, we gathered at the tree Ah King said before. He then gave us our BOARDING PASSES, because this is REALLY IMPORTANT, If you ever lost this piece of paper, you may NEVER GO TO SABAH, you will just have to give another RM1034(Yup, I'm not kidding, I know RIGHT? Thats a lot of money, BUT COME ON, its the Farewell Vacation, WITH YOUR FRIENDS) to go to Sabah or call your parents to take you home and waste that RM1034(STOP THINKING OF ME AS A RICH BOY, especially my friends).
  After giving all of our boarding passes, we head to the AirAsia airplane which was QUITE SMALL actually. First the plane moved SLOWLY, and then the plane went FASTER, AND FASTER(I figured out I have been talking nonsense, I should be talking about my Sabah trip, SO SORRY TO KEEP YOU WAITING.) After that 2.5 hours, we finally made it to Sabah. Lets just make this quick, shall we?(Go to Sabah's Airport KKIA => Do luggage check => Do body scan => Gather at an area like last time but not a tree => met our second tourist guider => went to the bu) WAIT A MINUTE, Its fast forwarding TOO FAST, I have to rewind back to the part we met our second tourist guider, Uncle Alex, but we just call him Alex. He is actually the one doing the most talking, and the most explaining in the field trip. His actually really smart and have a MASSIVE MEMORY on remember all of those explanation on every(not every one of them)building, ancient Sabah stories. Whenever we went into the bus, the first we heard is his explanations and legends of Sabah. But whenever his says a phrase, there will always be a (-nah)at the back.(I'm not insulting him I just saying, and after a couple of days, we heard lots of time, we didn't realized it anymore.)
We first visited the seafood store(so sorry for no pictures because the picture I taken were too suckish and blur because I used the old Olympus camera. I would have taken better pictures using the Canon DSLR but then my parents were worried about me making that RM4000+ camera lost. And the adapter for the camera SIM CARD went missing so I can't upload it to the computer.), yeah, just the usual: CLAMS, PRAWNS, CRABS, FISH AND OTHER SEAFOODS. After that, we went to buy our souvenirs(I know its just the first day but this souvenir market IS REALLY GOOD(But not as good as the third's day souvenir market)and there is a whole lot of stuff to buy along the four days.
  I bought 4 animal keychains(a bird, a goat, a dolphin and a fish)RM5, then I bought 6 other keychains that was WAY CHEAPER for just RM10(ladybug cube, fish cube, rabbit(because I the year of the Rabbit), house, Christmas SHOE, Mount Kinabalu(written Sabah Borneo on it), I bought 10 wooden made pencil(which I no its just not worth it, I'm sorry this is my FIRST EXPERIENCE buying stuff, OK?) which cost RM15. And last but not least, I bought one colourful handmade pen and a fish shaped container keychain(THIS SENTENCE DOESN'T REALLY MAKE MUCH SENSE....)
  After all of that we finally head to our hotel to get some rest. The hotel name was Cottage Hotel and it was near the tallest mountain in Malaysia-KK Kota Kinabalu. After a delicious steamboat dinner, we went to our own room. But it was only 8 somethin, so I played the UNO with two of my roomies and then read a little Skulddugery Pleasant. Then we all get our shuteye. But in the middle of the night, I woke up and I wasn't wearing my pyjamas(yeah I wear pyjamas) so I suited up and went back to sleep. I guess after I brushed my teeth I was watching a show and then I went to bed.


Day 2:
  This day is probably the most exciting day. First we actually got to see Mount KK on our right but it was so high it touch the clouds and cover the top. I actually got a photo of it but so sorry I can't upload it. So if you want to Mount KK type this on the Google search bar and you will see it. Then we all gathered at the hall and we check out because the second and third night we stayed at Gaya hotel. So after we checked out the hotel, we went on board by bus and continue our field trip.
  Yesterday we visited the seafood market but today we visited the fruit market. After that, we went to probably the most thrilling thing that happened to our lives-THE CANOPY WALK. At first, I just thought that, a canopy walk, I have experience this before, NOTHIN TO WORRY ABOUT.... Well when we got up there, I was like FINALLY..... WE'RE HERE!!!!!!!! Because before reaching the Canopy walk, WE HAD TO WALK A VERY VERY TIRING PATH UP TO THE CANOPY WALK. It took us 15 MINUTES to reach there.I bump my head TWICE to the tree branch....HARD.(Till now I can even remember... wait isn't that the opposite?).
  Alex told us that there was another tourist guider but he was the canopy guider, but he isn't going to GUIDE US WHILE WALKING, he was just saying the rules, or not there will be consequence. First, the maximum number of people to walk  on it was 6 people. And that was good because all of my classmates there was a total of 6 so we were a team. And we were third. I guess they let go to the canopy walk is to test our teamwork. And we did!!! The scariest part of the whole journey is the shakiness of the bridge, and when we step our left foot, the right part of the bridge will come up and when we step our right foot, the left part of the bridge will come up. So we work as a team and  we did like this. 1st person LEFT 2nd person RIGHT 3rd person LEFT 4th person RIGHT 5th person LEFT 6th person RIGHT. When we got to the end of the canopy walk, we FINALLY MADE IT. But after that, there was ANOTHER CANOPY WALK.And after that another, another, another and another. And the total bridges there were 6 bridges. You might think that is 6 people per 6 bridge, but even if it is, NO ONE EVEN THERE..... Every time we stepped on the middle of the wooden plank, there is this creepy cracking sound so we were there crying(in our mind). But after 2,3 canopy walks, we get used to it. So we actually had A VERY GREAT TIME THERE. Sorry for no photos of that scary canopy walk, but if I ever taken my camera with me I will be to scared to even take it out from my pocket.
  Then we get to relax in the spa, well is NOT REALLY A SPA, its just the foot spa. It took us 30 minutes to fill up the pool with about 7 cm. Because there were only two small taps to fill the big pool. Then we went to the second souvenir shop which is A LOT CHEAPER than the first one. So I bought 10 handmade wooden pencils which cost RM15, and this is my FAVORITE, the KEYCHAIN/NAIL CUTTER/CAN OPENER which has And it only cost RM15 for 5 of it. 5 of the K.N.C.C.O HAS NICE AND CUTE PICTURES.
  After that we have to go to Mari Mari village which was the second most thrilled thing that happened to our lives.But you will only know that in the next post so don't miss a bit.....
