Like most other Saturdays before, I thought it would rain, making the fertile soil slippery and washing away that delicate paper. Well, the day looked like it was going to rain on us, luckily, it didn't(there was a few puddles). Forget the weather. I did the run, the medium run for only the first check, the trail was ok, then there was amazingly fertile soil right on the hills, they were tough to climb but it was worth the challenge. Well, I chickened out of the medium thinking the rest was more hills(no offence), so I went to the short run, there goes my dignity. The short run was short for an average runner, about thirty minutes or so. Like the medium run and the long run, it had a hill, but unlike the one in the medium, oh my goodness, it's steeper and harder to climb, even a dog about nine inches couldn't go up the first step without help. No matter, they never said we could hold on to the tea plant stem. Even on the short run, the sights were extravagant, in fact, I could see my dad's truck. I may have not run in medium run or long run, but my brother had given me an idea what the medium run. It wasn't much though, he said it was up hill, then flat, then hill, then flat and that's as much as he told me. When I got back, there was the drinks(no Ramli). But! There was free rose red strawberry covered in enriched cream, too bad I didn't get any of it, but from what I heard, it was good. It was there because it was someone's birthday.
Then there was the circle which I paid no attention what so ever. But it wasn't because it was boring, it was just that I didn't hear anything. Alas, the On On at the TIttiwangsa Hotel, where we had steam boat, but unfortunately for some of us, we were in the corners which was surprisingly warm and that was no good, especially for me because I had a fever. The was okay, I would've liked it better if we had a little bit of spice, well, that's just my opinion. It was all good, and then there was free beer, not for me, due to some unfortunate excess of beer that needed to be finish. Eventually, the night came to an end and we all had a great time.
