Rafting at KKB

Parents are back. It's all good. I was running out of cash anyway. Daddy felt particularly generous this evening. I believe it's the first time he's given me more than 4 notes at a go. Oooh.

Went white water rafting at Kuala Kubu Bharu with the sushis yesterday. The experience is indescribable! At the time, I thought I would never make it out of there alive, but now I feel at the top of the world for surviving! It was nothing short of fun! There were 7 of us, 11 including the guides, and I earned the award for falling off the raft the most times. Four! The first time, I pulled Milo down with me. The raft almost tipped over the second time, sending 4 of us into the water. The third time, I pulled Patricia down with me, and I was the only one who got bumped out the last time 'round. Twas hilarious! The third time was the worst cuz I fell out at the beginning of the longest rapid. I earned my battle bruises there, slamming into countless rocks and being constantly pushed underwater. I felt like I was in a washing machine filled with stones. Hmm, stone washing?!

The number of bruises I got in one day was more than I have in the past 5 years! No kidding. The parents, sister, and her other half stared at the bruise on my right thigh in horror. It's slightly ovalish, 4 inches in diameter. And that's only the bruise, the swelling area is much greater. The bro-in-law said it looks as though I was paddled by a pingpong racket. Oooh yeah, I'm masochistic!
=.=''

Since I survived, I would proudly say that white water rafting is awesome! Painful yes, but definitely awesome! The thrill of riding the rapids was super! Daddy said that he's interested to try it out. I laughed. Hey, but who knows? He's strong and healthy ... and daring; most of all, daring!
