you are reaching soon right when you've just begun.
the ophir trip was amazing. being such an urbanite arse that i am, everything about the place was amazing except of course, consumerism delusion that spoils 'em all. all the rubbish. and i must have gushed 'amazing' like 5million times when asked about the trip.
well it is.
the trees were so tall that the empire state building pales in comparison amongst majesties. they grew in such a way (unless of course they were deliberately made that way.) like stairways, so that exploration is made easier. of course there were ropes placed as well. the view becomes much more than you imagined as you move up. and when you finally reached the summit, it's all so surreal. i heard many of my odacianmates gushed how 'great it feels to be on top of the world.' and i almost took it literally. and for a moment of philosophical pursuit, i wonder if Man had this quinessential trait since the beginning of Time? the world provide us with everything and all we ever wanted was to climb over the world and claim its glory. and what do we do along the way? dump our trash.
odac is a great company to be with climbing mt ophir. bonded majorly well. we could have had these often. but well. at least we had one. nonetheless, all of us should climb mountains. appreciates the simple things in life. i was craving for sugar cane when gary pointed out there were bamboos. ah. sugar cane juice from kovan never tasted sweeter.
but now i'm back into civilisation. hoo.rah.
