This post is gonna be so damn long, so read on if you want to and stop reading if you don't want to. Okay, maybe i'm exagerating about it going to be long, but it is not too short. Like a diary entry, sort of, but no secrets. Haha!
Day 1 ~ Journey to Myls
I woke up at around five-thirty to travel to Mt. Ophir. Ribble Ribble Ribble, I will just skip the minority details. Anyway, we reached my dad'sfriend's house. It was huge and grand on the outside, but it was just a mess inside. Their garden was like a mini plantation, just that it has a pond full of fat carps and a few animals, including two baby hamsters having a whole big metal cage for themselves. I think that was to protect them from the tabbies (felines; cats etc). Actually, those carps reminds me of the one Bayakuya (from Bleach) had in his pond. While three cute cats were eating their breakfast, I stroked one of the brown cats named Chocolate. It eventually came to mewing and rubbing itself against my legs. When all of us were setting off, (Uh oh, the gruesome part) the cat ran under my dad's car. And... well, I guess you know what happened next...
Mr Ong, my dad's friend, the organiser of the trip, told my dad to drive to another corner 'cause another friend of his could not get his car moving due to the cramped area. My dad drove the car to another side. *GULP*
The next moment, we saw the cat lying on the ground, and suddenly, it began flinging itself up and down on the road, shrieking. It was terrifying; we thought it had gone nuts. Then, it finally lay still on the road, although it was still alive and twitching. It was then when my mother shouted, "Ayioh~! You knocked the cat down! Its injured!" I ran to the car and told my dad what happened and led him to the disgusting scene. The cat was still suffering, one of its eyes dangling out of its socket. I shuddered as blood slowly bled from his wound. Mr Ong sighed and he took a shovel and carried the injured cat to a patch of grassland. He dug the soil and placed the barely alive cat into the soil and covered the earth.
When we were in the car, all of us barely talked. It was too devasting an atmosphere. We saw a monkey lying on the road. It was probably also knocked down by an oncoming vehicle. Then, we went to eat and -skip, skip, skip, Boring details... Next!
We soon arrived at our destination-Mount Ophir. It was a heavenly place, with a huge waterfall and all. After getting ready in out extremely horrible hotel room which they call 'Deluxe' [GOSH!], we set off to the waterfall at Mt Ophir. There was a legend and it goes like this:
A long time ago, a married sultan wanted to marry a beautiful princess living at a magnificent mountain. Thus, the princess set impossible tasks for the sultan to accomplish before he could marry her. The tasks were giving her seven trays of mosquitoe hearts and so on. The last task was giving her a bowl of his son's blood. The sultan was able to accomplish all the tasks except for the last. Therefore, the princess still remained at the mountain, Mount Ophir. The princess vows to make a hiker lost in the mountain if that person disrespects the her mountain.
So, we hiked to the reservior and jumped into the ice-cold water. However, we had to leave soon 'cause it was going to rain. But my dad stayed longer cause he was letting some fish bite him; fish treatment in the wilds, I call. Then, when we got back, We saw a huge rhino Beetle feasting on a small piece of water melon in a small tank. We thought it was fake, but it moved so suddenly that I nearly crashed into my mom, who was cradling Mr Ong's 7 months old baby. When we had bathed we went to a restaurant to eat our dinner. Grace and I were disgusted by it. They served Turtle soup, a very rare and endangered fish which only could be found in rivers, and Frogs. Grace and I looked at each other, not needing to spell out that we were thinking along the same lines. Actually, I did not know it was turtle soup, when I picked up a laddle and scooped up something, I nearly yelled and flung the ingredient into the baby's face. In the laddle was a small piece of green meat with glistening sharp nails; tortoise/turtle paw. I gulped and tried to finish my dinner before going back to the hotel.
Day 2--Back home.
