How crazy can we get?

Uh-huh..the answer would be: "Very"

So, finals ended on the 24th. Plans already started on the 25th.
Sheateng planned a BBQ dinner at the beachside in Teluk Batik, and me being the one, always not-missing out on something like this, decided to tag along.

The people who went:
1. Kian Chiew
2. ME
3. SomPhong
4. Chong Kian
5. Gabriel

:: SomPhong, Chong Kian and Gabriel with the Driver: Kian Chiew

in car ONE... and in car TWO, we have,
6. Kee Hui
7. SheaTeng

8. Zhan Pheng
9. Kah Kheng
10. Ching Shearn

Yeah, You have probably guessed it correctly. The ratio was 8 to 2, with only 2 ladies and 8 guys. Since Sheateng, Zhan Pheng has the last paper up to 5.30 p.m on the 25th, all of us were eager waiting for the time to come. Kian Chiew was so excited that he came to my block at 5.15p.m when Keehui just told me that they were only leaving at 6p.m. It didn't matter as we kept circling Taman Maju, waiting for the rest to come. It was only at 6.45 p.m when we really embarked in our little journey. The sky was getting dark and the rain was pouring rather heavily. Sheateng's wiper was cranky, giving out squeaky sounds, which kinda hurts our ears, but the whole journey was fun. With Chong Kian making un-funny jokes throughout the journey, and all of us chatting about almost everything under the sun. We only reached Teluk Batik at 8.15 p.m, with the rain still pouring..

Nevertheless, the rain didn't dampen our spirits, as we quickly bring out the gears, with Ching Shearn leading the pack, in search of a shelter: Pondok. Soon, as we placed our things, the rain no longer pours, and quickly the guys get the fire started. I realised when you put all the guys together, you can't do much. You can't even start a fire.

The guys were busy starting fire, each with their own style, and for a second, we thought the fire was going to stay, but nope, it died as soon after. So, TEAM 2 took over the job, which the team members are ME, Sheateng, Kian Chiew and Gabriel, and voila, 10 minutes after, the fire was up and going. Quickly they set up the BBQ pit, which consists of a few brickstones and one kasa dawai.

Everyone was excited but very hungry. So, we came to an agreement to only cook the hotdog and burger meat first, since both these are easier and faster to cook. Everyone was fighting our pieces of meat, especially Ching Shearn who took 3 pieces of burger meat, when it was clearly reminded that one person can only take 1 and the 1/2 of it. Couldn't be blamed really,when you are hungry, your animal instincts all come out. Then we proceeded to the chicken wings. 70 in total for 10 people. There were 3 different types of seasoning..(with SHeateng and I, doing the marinating the night before). *(The guys wanted to marinate the chicken earlier but they wanted to do it in pails..; Pails which they used to wash their clothes, undies and everything you could ever imagine..uh huh..so you get the point..) Luckily they didn't come up with stupid stupid comments about the wings, or else,..we shall throw them into the sea..Muahahahaha..how convenient.

We couldn't finish the food in one-seating, so we decided to spend some time, walking along the beach and then snap lotsa pictures. We took off our sandals and feel the seawater. The waves slowly carressing our leg as we sank them into the sand. We did lotsa lotsa stupid antics,including camwhoring and writing our names onto the sand. We managed to see lotsa stars that night.

After fooling on the beach, and with constant reminder from Somphong, telling me not to shout at the seaside, we got back to our BBQ pit, and continued eating again. With the food almost finishing, we had our little bonding session. Surprisingly, it was a breeze for us to bond together. Honestly, I was kinda afraid that this outing might not be as good as the others I had. One reason was probably due to the fact that these group of people are those whom I don't even mix around with. Everytime we meet, it was either a simple gesture of "Hello" or a slight nod to acknowlege one's presence and that was it. None of my usual hangout group was there but surprisingly, we hit it out fine. We discussed about matters from Hackers, gruesome stories, horror stories and up to dirty movies. Everything we talked about was funny and no one, seriously, no one felt left out. Everyone was practically enjoying themselves.

It looked like it was going to rain any moment, that's when we had to come up with some back up plan. We continued talking up to 1 a.m. and then proceeded to clear the site. We sat around planning when we decided to go to the Lumut Jetty to kill time. The beach was then almost deserted and we saw Mat Rempits near the beach. We did fear that something might happen to us because according to them, sometimes, these Mat Rempits are a little dangerous and maybe..something might happen to us. We all waited for them to leave, then we quickly went into our cars.

The road out to Lumut was rather dark and quiet. As it was already 2 a.m, the roads were deserted and empty. We had to drive in a slow yet steady pace, to avoid any mishaps. KianChiew was afraid that people might jump out to scare us and then rob us in the middle of the journey. However, that did not happen, and we reached Lumut safely. The jetty was full of couples and groups of people. We parked our cars, and then walked to the nearest Mamak stall. (somehow we can never runaway from Mamak huh? Leave UTP already still have to go mamak geh) As we walked to the location, people from the jetty were looking at us with one kind of look. It felt eerie and weird, when I quickly clench onto my camera, holded it near me, instead of swinging it to and fro..

We settled ourselves in the mamak stalls while some of us quickly ran to the washroom. It was so painful to hold what we have to let out because the toilets in Teluk Batik were closed. A sense of relief was felt, when we let it all out.=) We continued crapping and also about all kinds of topics. It was almost 5.45 a.m. when we decided to leave. We got kinda freaked out because there was this Proton Wira parked beside the mamak shop, quite near to our place. Earlier, I saw a group of men, surrounding the car, talking while looking to the right and left. I didn't think much as probably they were just talking la. The same position lasted for an hour, when I smelled something fishy going on. KianChiew realised I saw something, and quickly showed me his finger on his lips. I knew something was wrong, and I loudly announced that we should probably get going. Only me, KianChiew and Keehui sped to our cars, while the rest merely walked. We notioned them to hurry up, locking the doors as soon as everyone stepped in. I managed to look behind, to see that those men were actually stealing the car. 2 men were trying to cover up, while one was using some metal, inserting it into the car. It was the first time I experience people stealing a car, plus doing it so openly in the public. Then, as we were driving back to the beach, I told KianChiew that the 2 tables of men who were sitting beside us, were probably their gang, because they were staring at us, with one kind of look..

Imagine what could have happened to us, if we were to approach the men, asking them what they were trying to do?
Or they decided to steal our car instead when they fail to steal that particular one? Or they could have chased us and followed us..

We drove back slowly and cautiously to the beach, with Gabriel and SomPhong fallen into deep sleep. Upon reaching the beach, no one dared to step out from the car, until KeeHui's car door opened up and they came to our car. We didn't want to go out from the car, as it was dangerous and who knows what might happen to us right? The street lights were all out and the beach was definitely deserted. We agreed that everyone has to stay in the car, which is safer plus they will be able to get some sleep. It would be better for the drivers to get some sleep, as they were driving the whole day. Haha..but the 3 of us, KianChiew , me and chong Kian was unable to sleep. Felt disturbed and started to talk about the crime prevention in the country. At the same time, my nature called..and I was trying so hard to stand..Finally when it was getting brighter, Sheateng, Me,Chong Kian, and Pangkor went to the beach to look for the toilets. None of them were opened. It was easy for Chong Kian as he was able to finish his business anywhere whereas it was hard for both me and Sheateng. We looked for suitable places but none of them were suitable. We then, went to look for toilets in the resorts. Luckily there was one, and the management has to charge RM0.50 per person. So expensive la!

The sun was rising, and the beach was brighter. More and more people were coming so we walked to the beach..doing the same thing, dipping our feet into the sea. Most of them wanted to swim, so they took off everything and jumped in. People like me, Gabriel and Kian Chiew stayed dry onland. Gabriel went around, taking pictures, looking all-pro like a professional cameraman, while KianChiew was being a nice guy, taking care of all our belongings,while entertaining me. We had fun, seeing them play in the water and doing stupid actions. Hahha..funny..

We left only at 8.45 a.m. because everyone was hungry. Went to AyerTawar for breakfast and we headed back to UTP after being out for 10 hours straight without any sleep. The BBQ was one of the best outings I have since I stepped into UTP. The company was great, the people were superb and the food was scrumptious.
Can't wait for the next one though. When ah??
