All Set!!!!!!!!! Let's GOOOO!!!

Jumper? CHeck!
Thermals? check!
Spare contacts and specs? Check!
Band Aid? Checkkkkk!..................

Easter break here we coooommmmmmmeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!! How exciting it feels to complete my last mid semester test paper and to be able to go camping tomorrow!! We just headed down to Wollys to get all our meals for the next four days and dinner at Jackpot (an cheap and yummy asian place at Toowong, where the guys stay for the info of the unaware). whats new....i was the last one to get all things packed away even tho i'm carrying the lightest..well, i'm the only gurl so that gives me the excuse to be the weakest of the lot.

We are actualli heading for Sundown National park tml and prob be on the road for about 4-5 hours. THAT'S why we are actualli stayin at the guys' place tonight, to head off abt 6-tish tml. Think the guys' excitement are reali infectious...i'm getting quite excited abt heading off too actuali. You should have seen them getting more and more excited as we start packing and stuffing our backpacks with food and clothes and equipments. They were like little boys excitedly just stuffing their bags with as much things as possible, boasting who's carryin the heaviest (modestly, that is), having music blarin at the background...singing to it from time to time. This is a noisy house indeed prob the noisest on the street. Whats new when you get Pete, Treve, John and Josh.....Guess they pretty excited of getting to spend the next couple with us...;) (a bit up ourselves hor?...)

So what we are sleeping on tonight? ..well, we try out my new sleeping bag that we got in Singapore. Just hope it would be warm enough for the trip. And where we sleeping? In the family room of the guys' place. The one that is near to the kitchen. Ahhhh..Wei Sze know what i'm thinking? Thinking abt what is the possibility of getting a Mr Croakie come running out of the kitchen in the middle of the night? I'm going to make Josh to sleep closest to the kitchen tho...Yeah...i'm bad but i'm sure Mr Croakie wont bother him as much as he does to me.

One last interesting fact abt camping with the guys is the food tat are actualli bringing. Yeah they got the usual packaged Tuna and Vitawheat, Maggi Noodles, trail mix, museli bars, Mushies(Mushmallow) etc....We are actuali bringing oats (what they call as porridage), Deb (dried mashed potato), Jamaica (Dark choc with raisins), instant rice with seasonings and the most luxurious item (thats both heavy -2kg, walking about 20km with an absence of 2 kg makes a great difference when one can make do without it and unnecessary -maybe to me only) is a cask of Port! I guess that would keep them warm at the end of the day and make sleep better but its still a crazy 2kg!!! Well, it doesnt reali bother me since i'm not the one carrying it..=) And well, guess it would lighten up after the first night when Pete decides its too heavy for him to carry another 20K.

This month reali is going to be camping month. Since this easter break would actuali start from tml and actuali extend till the week after tuesday (Anzac Day), Josh and i are kindda planning for a 2 days two-of-us onli camping trip next coming weekend. That means we would be away this weekend, next weekend (after the morning service) and the next weekend (camping with the youth group at SunDown -A different part of the national this time). How cool that we get to do so much camping at this time of the year when its neither too cold or hot. The temp is just right and the holidays falls so perfectly during this time. And what more...the moon is abt full tonight....Can't wait to see it in the outback over the next few days....Thank God for everything...Just pray that all goes well...And that we won't get lost much since Pete dint manage to get a map of Sundown...Anyways...my life would be based on the mercy of the direction sense of three Aussies for the next four days....Pray for me kkk....

No problem lah, I'm sure the guys' direction can't be that bad! ;) Even if y'all get lost, you will still be able to survive with the camping gear that you are equipped with!

Have lots of fun! We are missing the camping action here!
